Except where otherwise agreed to by the Parties or required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, City of Lexington. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
The arbitrator’s authority to resolve Disputes and to make awards is limited to Disputes between You and PayHOA alone, and is subject to the limitations of liability set forth in these Terms of Service. No arbitration award or decision on any Disputes shall be given preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a party to the arbitration. Should any portion of this paragraph be stricken from these Terms of Service or deemed otherwise unenforceable, then this entire Section 18 shall be stricken from these Terms of Service.
The provisions of this Section 18 and all arbitration awards duly made in connection therewith may be enforced in a court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees, and expenses (including attorney fees) incurred in obtaining the enforcement of this provision, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered. All arbitration awards duly made under these Terms of Service shall not be subject to review or appeal except as permitted by applicable law.
EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED HEREIN, YOU HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL, INCLUDING TRIAL BY JURY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class-action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. Any provision of these Terms of Service to the contrary notwithstanding PayHOA may bypass the aforementioned arbitration process in cases of fraud or other crimes against PayHOA, interference with PayHOA’s technical operations, or violations of PayHOA’s rights or property. If any of these provisions are found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, City of Lexington, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non-convenience with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action You bring arising out of or related to Your use of the Content or Website, the provision of the Services or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
