19. Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

Any Dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions may be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Provision at either your or Life Pro Tips' election, unless otherwise prohibited by law. The term "Dispute" means any dispute, claim or controversy regarding any aspect of your relationship with Life Pro Tips that has accrued or may hereafter accrue, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, tort (including without limitation claims arising from or pertaining to misrepresentation or negligence), and includes the validity and enforceability of this Arbitration Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of section (b) of the Restrictions clause provided below). Arbitration means that you will have a fair hearing before a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury. RIGHT TO OPT OUT: IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU MUST NOTIFY Life Pro Tips IN WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISION TO THE ATTENTION OF THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT. YOU CAN OBTAIN THIS INFORMATION BY CONTACTING US HERE. YOUR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION TO Life Pro Tips MUST INCLUDE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS AND USER ID AS WELL AS A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH Life Pro Tips THROUGH ARBITRATION. YOUR DECISION TO OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECT ON YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH Life Pro Tips AND YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. Initiation of Arbitration: All disputes arising out of or in connection with this agreement, or in respect of any legal relationship associated with or derived from this agreement, shall be arbitrated and finally resolved, pursuant to the National Arbitration Rules of the AAA (American Arbitration Association). In the event of a conflict between this Arbitration Provision and the rules of the arbitration organization chosen, this Arbitration Provision will govern. If the arbitration organization will not enforce this Arbitration Provision, it cannot serve as the arbitration organization to resolve your dispute. If the arbitration organization above is not available or permitted to arbitrate the Dispute for any reason, the parties shall agree on a substitute arbitration organization. If the parties are unable to agree, they shall mutually petition a court of appropriate jurisdiction to appoint a substitute arbitration organization that will enforce this Arbitration Provision as written. Arbitration Procedures: The Federal Arbitration Act of 1925 (US, found at 9 U.S.C. Section 1 et seq.), as amended, replaced or re-enacted from time to time governs the arbitrability of all Disputes. In the event that the choice of the Arbitration Act of 1925 (US, found at 9 U.S.C. Section 1 et seq.), is not enforced, arbitrability of all Disputes shall be governed by the equivalent federal arbitration act applied in the relevant jurisdiction, such as the Federal Arbitration Act in the United States. A single arbitrator will resolve the Dispute, and the arbitrator will take reasonable steps to protect customer account information and other confidential or proprietary information. The arbitration will not be confidential unless you request that it remain confidential. An award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction for purposes of enforcement. If an award granted by the arbitrator exceeds $5,000, either party can appeal that award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the same organization by a written notice of appeal filed within thirty (30) days from the date of entry of the arbitration award. The members of the three-arbitration panel will be selected according to the rules of the arbitration organization. The decision of the three-arbitrator panel shall be final and binding, except for any appellate right that exists under the Arbitration Act.
Restrictions:
UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW, YOU MUST CONTACT US WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR OF THE DATE OF THE OCCURRENCE OF THE EVENT OR FACTS GIVING RISE TO A DISPUTE OR YOU WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PURSUE ANY CLAIM BASED ON SUCH EVENT, FACTS OR DISPUTE. ALL PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION MUST BE INDIVIDUALLY NAMED. THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS ACTION OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR ON BASES INVOLVING DISPUTES BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC (SUCH AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL), OR OTHER SIMILARLY SITUATED PERSONS UNLESS THAT STATUTE UNDER WHICH YOU ARE SUING PROVIDES OTHERWISE. ALL PARTIES WAIVE ANY CLAIM TO INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR MULTIPLIED DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR OUT OF ANY DISPUTE WITH Life Pro Tips UNLESS THE STATUTE UNDER WHICH THEY ARE SUING PROVIDES OTHERWISE. Location of Arbitration: The arbitration will take place in California, USA in English. Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs: Life Pro Tips will advance all arbitration filing fees and arbitrator's costs and expenses upon your written request given prior to the commencement of the arbitration. You are responsible for all additional costs that you incur in the arbitration, including without limitation costs associated with attorneys or expert witnesses. If the arbitration is decided in your favor, you will not be required to reimburse Life Pro Tips for any of the fees and costs it advanced. If the arbitration is decided in Life Pro Tips favor, you shall reimburse Life Pro Tips only up to the extent awardable in a judicial proceeding. If a party elects to appeal an award to a three-arbitrator panel, the prevailing party in the appeal shall be entitled to recover all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in that appeal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this arbitration provision, Life Pro Tips will split evenly (50/50) all fees and costs which it is required by law to pay. Severability: If any clause within this Arbitration Provision other than the class action waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Arbitration Provision, and the remainder of this Arbitration Provision will be given full force and effect. If the class action waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the Arbitration Provision will be unenforceable, and the dispute will be decided by a court. Exclusions from Arbitration: You and Life Pro Tips agree that any claim filed by you or by Life Pro Tips that is not aggregated with the claim of any other persons and whose amount in controversy is properly within the jurisdiction of a court which is limited to adjudicating small claims shall not be subject to arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Life Pro Tips reserves the right to pursue the protection of intellectual property rights and confidential information through injunctive or other equitable relief through the courts.
Continuation: This Arbitration Provision will survive the termination of your Service with Life Pro Tips.

20. Miscellaneous

You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in the state of California, USA; and (ii) the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Life Pro Tips, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than the state of California; and (iii) The Terms, and your relationship with Life Pro Tips under the Terms shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the state of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. These Terms contain the entire understanding of the parties regarding their subject matter, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the parties regarding their subject matter. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right, power or privilege under these Terms shall operate as a waiver thereof.
