XXII. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT CONTAINS AN ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

  • Initial Dispute Resolution. We would like to try to work disputes out with you informally. Before filing a claim against AIPAC, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting [email protected]. We will try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you via email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days of submission, you or AIPAC may bring a formal arbitration proceeding as described below.

  • Agreement to Arbitrate. You and AIPAC agree to resolve through final and binding arbitration any claims relating to these Terms of Use, the Site, the Services, and any content offered on or through the Site, except as set forth under Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate below. The arbitration shall be held in Washington, D.C. For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall also be initiated in Washington, D.C. You and AIPAC agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any or state or federal court in Washington, D.C. to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the aware entered by the arbitrator.

  • Arbitration Procedures. Any and all disputes or claims arising out of, or relating to, a breach of these Terms of Use, the Site, the Services, and any content offered on or through the Site (including any transactions conducted through the Services, or otherwise conducted on our behalf) (“Claims”) will be settled by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator appointed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its then governing rules and procedures.

  • Arbitration and Attorneys’ Fees. You are responsible for all costs that you may incur in the arbitration including, but not limited to filing fees, attorneys’ fees, and expert witness costs unless AIPAC is otherwise specifically required to pay such fees under applicable law. The decision of the arbitrator will be in writing and binding and conclusive on AIPAC and you, and judgment to enforce the decision may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. AIPAC and you agree that dispositive motions, including without limitation, motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment, will be allowed in the arbitration. The arbitrator must follow these Terms of Use and can award the same damages and relief as a court, including injunctive or other equitable relief and attorneys’ fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree not to seek any attorneys’ fees and expert witness costs unless the arbitrator finds that a claim or defense was frivolous or asserted for an improper purpose. AIPAC and you understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, AIPAC and you would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. AIPAC and you further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. If AIPAC is the prevailing party in the arbitration, applicable law may allow the arbitrator to award attorneys’ fees and costs to AIPAC.

  • Severability; Waiver of Jury Trial. If any clause within these arbitration provisions is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that specific clause will be severed from these arbitration provisions, and the remainder of the arbitration provisions will be given full force and effect. In the event some or all of these arbitration provisions are determined to be unenforceable for any reason, or if a claim, dispute or controversy is brought that is found by a court to be excluded from the scope of these arbitration provisions, AIPAC and you agree to waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any trial by jury. The terms of these arbitration provisions will also apply to any claims asserted by you against any present or future parent or affiliated company of AIPAC to the extent that any such claims arise out of your access to, and/or use of the Services, and/or the provision of content, services, and/or technology on or through the Services.

  • Opt-Out of Agreement to Arbitrate.  You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following email address: [email protected]. The notice must be sent within 30 days of or your first acceptance of these Terms of Use of the Site; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms above.  If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we will also not be bound by them.

No Class Actions

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and you may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. You agree that class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed.

BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, YOU MAY ONLY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST AIPAC AND THE AIPAC RELEASED PARTIES IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ARBITRATION, YOU SHOULD OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION PER THE TERMS OF SERVICE. OTHERWISE, YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO USE THIS SITE IN ANY WAY.

XXIII. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

In the event that the agreement to arbitration is found not to apply to you or your claim, you and AIPAC agree that any judicial proceeding will be brought in the federal or state courts of Washington, D.C.  Both you and AIPAC consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there.

You agree that the arbitration provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), and not by any state law concerning arbitration. You otherwise agree that the law of the District of Columbia governs these Terms of Service and any claim or dispute that you may have against us, without regard to the District of Columbia’s conflict of laws rules.

XXIV. Waiver and Severability

No waiver by us of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use or in the Subscription Services User shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of us to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

XXV. Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use, and any supplemental terms, policies, rules and guidelines posted on the Site and the Services, in addition to the Community Rules, constitute the entire agreement between you and us and supersede all previous written or oral agreements. The paragraph headings in these Terms of Use, shown in boldface type, are included only to help make these Terms of Service easier to read and have no binding effect.

XXVI. Assignment

AIPAC may assign this agreement through your acceptance of these Terms of Use at any time, including, without limitation, to any affiliated company, or as part of the sale to, merger with, or other transfer of our company to another entity. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense the limited license or any other rights granted to you under these Terms of Use to anyone else and any attempt to do so in violation of this section shall be null and void.
