10. DISPUTE RESOLUTUON BY BINDING ARBITRATION
Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by contacting Customer Care at support@wefi.com. Before taking any formal action, You agree that You will first contact us with any dispute and provide a written description of the nature of the dispute, all relevant documents, and other information concerning the dispute and Your proposed resolution before taking any legal action. If we are unable to reach a resolution of Your dispute within 60 days of Your notice to us, You agree that instead of filing a lawsuit or small claims action in a court of law, You will submit the dispute to binding arbitration as set forth in this Section 9. Please forward your dispute to Wefi, Attn: Legal Department, 1149 S. Hill Street, Suite H-400, Los Angeles, California 90015.
BINDING ARBITRATION
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS RIGHTS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE. IT PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS BETWEEN WEFI AND YOU THROUGH ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF SUING IN COURT IN THE EVENT THE PARTIES ARE UNABLE TO RESOLVE A DISPUTE OR CLAIM. ARBITRATION IS BINDING AND SUBJECT TO ONLY A VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE AWARE THAT THERE IS NO JUDGE NOR JURY IN ARBITRATION BUT THAT AN ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD YOU THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO RECOVER IN A COURT OF LAW. YOU AND WEFI FURTHER AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MUST HONOR THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, EITHER PARTY MAY BRING A CLAIM IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT.
This provision is intended to encompass all disputes or claims with Wefi, arising out of Your use of the Application. References to You and Wefi include our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns. References to Wefi also include Wefi’s affiliates.
All claims will be resolved by binding arbitration where permitted by law. You must first present any claim or dispute to Wefi by contacting Wefi’s Legal Department, as set out above, to allow an opportunity to resolve the dispute prior to initiating arbitration. The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this agreement. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA a 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Wefi’s Legal Department as set out above. You and Wefi agree that use of the Application evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. Additionally, for claims of $10,000 or less, You can choose to proceed with arbitration being decided on the documents submitted in an effort to minimize costs and the time it may take for an arbitrator to reach his or her decision.
You and Wefi agree that any arbitration will be conducted on an individual basis and not on a consolidated, class wide, or representative basis. Further, You and Wefi agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If the preclusion of consolidated, class wide, or representative proceedings is found to be unenforceable, then this entire arbitration clause shall be null and void.
Absent a finding that Your demand is frivolous, brought for an improper purpose, or malicious as set forth by the standards of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), Wefi will pay the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees of an arbitration initiated in accordance with this License. If, however, the arbitrator does deem that Your demand was frivolous, was brought for an improper purpose, or was malicious under the same standard used in a court of law, payment of all fees will be divided between You and Wefi in accordance with AAA Rules. Additionally, Wefi hereby waives any right to seek its attorney’s fees from You in the event that it prevails in the arbitration, except where Your demand is deemed frivolous, brought for an improper purpose, or malicious under the standard set out above. Nothing in this section shall be construed by an arbitrator as barring an award of attorney’s fees to You, the customer, where the law would so provide. If You initiate an arbitration in which You seek more than $50,000 in damages, the payment of fees will be governed by the AAA rules.
If Wefi made You a settlement offer that You rejected prior to entering arbitration and the arbitrator ultimately finds in Your favor in any respect with an award that is greater than the last written offer made to You by Wefi, Wefi will pay You the amount of the award or a minimum of $5,000, whichever is greater. If Wefi opted not to make You a written settlement offer, these same terms apply, meaning that You are guaranteed a minimum award of $5,000 if the arbitrator finds in Your favor.
Unless You and Wefi agree otherwise and in an effort to reduce the burden of arbitration on You, the location of any arbitration shall be in the county of Your, the customer’s, residence for those customers located within the United States. For customers residing outside of the United States, the location of arbitration shall be Los Angeles, California, unless You and Wefi agree otherwise. Either or both parties may participate in the proceedings by telephone.
If for any reason this arbitration provision is deemed inapplicable or invalid, or to the extent this arbitration provision allows for litigation of disputes in court, You and Wefi waive to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) any right to pursue any claims on a class or consolidated basis and (ii) Your right to serve in a representative capacity in any class or consolidated basis. Neither You nor Wefi shall disclose the existence, contents, or results of any arbitration except to the extent required by law. Judgment on the award rendered may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction.
In the event that any claim proceeds in a court of law rather than through arbitration, You and Wefi agree that there will not be a jury trial. You and Wefi unconditionally waive any right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this License in any way. You and Wefi further agree that in the event of litigation, this section of the License may be filed as an exhibit illustrating a knowing and written consent of any right to a trial by jury.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS PROVISION COVERING DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION WITHIN 30 DAYS OF INSTALLING THE APPLICATION. IN THE EVENT YOU INSTALL THE APPLICATION AND DO NOT OPT OUT OF THIS PROVISION WITHIN 30 DAYS, YOUR INACTION SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE CONSENT TO THIS PROVISION COVERING DISPUTE RESOLUTION. YOU MAY OPT OF THIS PROVISION BY CONTACTING WEFI AT SUPPORT@WEFI.COM OR BY WRITING TO WEFI, ATTN: LEGAL DEPARTMENT, 1149 S. HILL ST., SUITE H-400, LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90015. ANY OPT-OUT RECEIVED AFTER THE OPT-OUT DEADLINE (OR, IN THE CASE OF THOSE MAILED, POSTMARKED AFTER THE OPT-OUT DEADLINE) WILL BE INVALID, AND YOU MUST PURSUE YOUR CLAIM IN ARBITRATION.
11. GOVERNING LAW
This License shall be deem to take place in the State of California and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflict of law principles. This License shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, You and Wefi agree that any cause of action arising out of or relating to the Application or Your use of the Application must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
