Arbitration AGREEMENT
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS AND IMPACTS THE WAY THAT YOU AND WE BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER AND HOW THOSE CLAIMS ARE DECIDED.
Agreement to Arbitrate
You and ABMP agree that any and all disputes or claims (“Disputes”) relating in any way to ABMP’s website or products or services or from any advertising for any such product or services, including any Dispute regarding the applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms of Use will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), rather than in court, as described in this “Arbitration Agreement” section (“Agreement to Arbitrate”). This Agreement to Arbitrate is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) (“FAA”), including its procedural provisions, in all respects.
Scope of Arbitration
This Agreement to Arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted and includes any Dispute between you and ABMP regarding any aspect of your relationship with us or any conduct or failure to act on our part, including claims based on breach of contract, tort (for example, a negligence claim), violation of law, or any claims based on any other theory, and including those based on events that occurred prior to the “Last Modified” date of these Terms of Use. All challenges to the interpretation or enforceability of any provision of these Terms of Use, including questions of arbitrability, shall be brought before the arbitrator, and the arbitrator shall rule on all questions regarding the interpretation and enforceability of these Terms of Use.
IP Exception
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms or Use, any claim for a Dispute regarding the validity, protection or enforcement of a party’s intellectual property rights (such as its patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, or moral rights, but not including its privacy or publicity rights) must be brought in court, subject to the section of these Terms of Use entitled, “Location, Governing Law and Jurisdiction.”
Prohibition of Class Actions and Non-Individualized Relief
Any arbitration will be conducted by the parties in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action. Unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person’s or party’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of consolidated, representative, class, or private attorney general action or proceeding. Also, the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief, and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s individual claim(s).
Arbitration Rules
The arbitration will be administered by AAA and governed by the AAA’s then-current Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”), as modified by the terms of the Agreement. The AAA Rules are available online at http://www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. In the event of any conflict between the terms of these Terms of Use and the AAA Rules, the terms of these Terms of Use will apply.
Procedure for Arbitration
Neutral Arbitrator
Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge and jury. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages) and must follow the terms of these Terms of Use as a court would. Arbitration procedures allow for more limited discovery, and court review of an arbitration award is limited.
Demand for Arbitration
A party who intends to arbitrate a Dispute (“Claimant”) must first send to the other party (“Respondent”) a written notice, entitled “Demand for Arbitration” (“Demand”). The Demand must: (i) briefly explain the Dispute; (ii) provide the Claimant’s name and address, the address of the Claimant’s representative (if the Claimant has one), and the Respondent’s name and address (for ABMP, see below); (iii) specify the amount of money in dispute, if applicable; (iv) if the Claimant is requesting an in-person hearing, identify the requested location for the hearing; and (v) include a statement of what the Claimant wants.
If you are the Claimant, then the Demand must be sent to ABMP and addressed to:
Associated Bodywork & Massage Professionals, Inc.
25188 Genesee Trail Road, Suite 200
Golden, Colorado 80401
Attn: Human Resources
Such ABMP address is referred to as “Notice Address”.
The Claimant must send one copy of the Demand to AAA at the same time the Claimant sends it to the Respondent. When sending a copy of the Demand to AAA, the Claimant must also include a copy of this arbitration agreement and any amendments to it and the then-current filing fee required by the AAA. The Demand must be sent to either the following address or filed with the AAA online using AAA WebFile: https://www.adr.org:
American Arbitration Association
Case Filing Services
1101 Laurel Oak Road, Suite 100
Voorhees, NJ 08043
Filing, Administration and Arbitrator Fees
Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise stated in these Terms of Use. Each party will bear its own fees in connection with the arbitration, including the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of evidence at any arbitration hearing.
Final Judgement
The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity, and must enforce the same limitations stated in these Terms of Use as a court would. The arbitrator will issue an award decision in writing but will not provide an explanation for the award unless you or ABMP requests one. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
Confidentiality
Any arbitration will be confidential. Neither you, ABMP, the AAA, nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content (including any oral or written submissions), or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by applicable law or for purposes of enforcing or challenging of the arbitration award.
Amendments to Agreement to Arbitrate
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any amendment to this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than an amendment to any Notice Address or site link provided herein), that amendment shall not apply to any claim of a Dispute that was filed in a legal proceeding against ABMP prior to the effective date of the amendment. The amendment shall apply to all other Disputes governed by the Agreement to Arbitrate that have arisen or may arise between you and ABMP. We will notify you of amendments to this Agreement to Arbitrate by posting the amended terms on https://www.abmp.com/terms-useand/or by providing notice to you by email (if you have provided ABMP with an email address) at least 30 days before the effective date of the amendments. If you do not agree to these amended terms, you may opt-out within 30 days after notice of the amendment following the instructions above and then you will not be bound by the amended terms.
Opt-Out Procedure
You may opt out of this Agreement to Arbitrate by providing written notice to ABMP at the Notice Address, above, no later than 30 days from the date that you accept these Terms of Use for the first time. Your written notification to ABMP must include your name, mailing address, e-mail address, phone number and a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with ABMP through arbitration. If you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, all other provisions of these Terms of Use will continue to apply.
