The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.

Jurisdiction and Venue: For any disputes not subject to arbitration under Section 19, you agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in the District of Columbia, United States, and you waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue, including any objection based on inconvenient forum or lack of personal jurisdiction.

Waiver of Jury Trial: To the extent permitted by applicable law, you and we each waive the right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service, except where such waiver is prohibited by law.

This section sets forth the exclusive procedures for resolving disputes between you and us. By using the Service, you agree to resolve disputes through the procedures outlined below, which are designed to be efficient and cost-effective.

19.1 Mandatory Binding Arbitration

Agreement to Arbitrate: Except as otherwise set forth in this section, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, or the relationship between you and us (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory) shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. This includes disputes that arose or were asserted before the effective date of these Terms.

Waiver of Jury Trial and Class Actions: By agreeing to arbitration, you and we each waive the right to a trial by jury and the right to participate in a class action, class-wide arbitration, representative action, or consolidated proceeding of any kind. You agree that disputes will be resolved on an individual basis only, and you waive any right to bring, join, or participate in any class action, collective action, or representative proceeding.

19.2 Arbitration Rules and Procedures

Governing Rules: The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") then in effect, except as modified by this agreement. If the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to administer the arbitration, the parties shall agree on an alternative arbitration provider, or if they cannot agree, a court of competent jurisdiction shall select the arbitration provider.

Arbitrator Selection: The arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the arbitration provider. The arbitrator must be a licensed attorney with at least ten years of experience in commercial law or a retired judge.

Location: The arbitration shall be conducted in the state where you reside, or if you are a business entity, in the state where your principal place of business is located. However, we may elect to have the arbitration conducted in the state where our principal place of business is located if we agree to pay any additional costs you incur as a result of that location.

19.3 Exceptions to Arbitration

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following disputes may be brought in court:

19.4 Costs and Fees

Arbitration Costs: Each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the arbitration, unless otherwise required by applicable law or the arbitrator determines that a claim or defense was frivolous or brought in bad faith, in which case the arbitrator may award reasonable attorneys' fees and costs to the prevailing party.

Filing Fees: The arbitration provider's filing fees and administrative costs shall be allocated in accordance with the arbitration provider's rules. Each party shall be responsible for paying its own share of the filing fees and administrative costs, unless otherwise required by applicable law. However, if you demonstrate that you cannot afford the filing fees and your claim is not frivolous, we will pay the filing fees on your behalf or the arbitrator may require us to pay them.

19.5 Arbitration Award and Enforcement

The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator may award any relief that a court could award, including monetary damages, injunctive relief, and declaratory relief, but may not award punitive damages or any damages not permitted under these Terms.

19.6 Statute of Limitations

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the Service or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or be forever barred.

The parties agree not to disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, except as required by law or court order.

19.8 Severability of Arbitration Provision

If any part of this arbitration provision is found to be unenforceable, the remainder shall remain in full force and effect. However, if the class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entire arbitration provision shall be null and void, and disputes shall be resolved in court, but the waiver of jury trial shall remain in effect.

Your opt-out notice must include your name, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration agreement. If you opt out, disputes will be resolved in court as set forth in Section 18 (Governing Law and Jurisdiction).

20. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable, or if such modification is not possible, it shall be severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision.

No Waiver of Rights: Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision, and we may enforce such right or provision at any time. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms must be in writing and signed by us.

21. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other legal notices published by us on the Service, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the use of the Service and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals, negotiations, representations, communications, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof.
