16. Binding Arbitration / Class Waiver.
You and Roger Florist agree that all disputes, controversies and claims related to these Terms (including the Privacy Policy, Roger Florist Services and any order for any product or services from Roger Florist) (each a "Claim"), shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration as described in this Section, which may be initiated by either party by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to the other party. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other.
(a) YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT ANY LEGAL CLAIM, DISPUTE OR OTHER CONTROVERSY BETWEEN YOU AND Roger Florist ARISING OUT OF OR OTHERWISE RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE Roger Florist SERVICES, INCLUDING CONTROVERSIES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY OR VALIDITY OF ANY PROVISION OF THESE TERMS OR Roger Florist'S PRIVACY POLICY AND PRACTICES (COLLECTIVELY "DISPUTES"), SHALL BE RESOLVED IN CONFIDENTIAL BINDING ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BEFORE ONE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATOR FROM THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA"), RATHER THAN IN A COURT, AS DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE AAA'S COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND, IF THE ARBITRATOR DEEMS THEM APPLICABLE, THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (COLLECTIVELY "RULES AND PROCEDURES"). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY FORFEITING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO OTHERWISE PROCEED IN A LAWSUIT IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT.
(b) Payment of arbitration costs will be governed by the AAA's fee schedule, unless you are able to show that your portion will be prohibitive as compared to litigation costs, in which case Roger Florist will pay as much of your arbitration costs as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to litigation costs. Roger Florist also reserves the right in its sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for all arbitration costs imposed by the AAA. Each party agrees to pay its own attorneys' fees and expenses unless there is a governing statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid attorneys' fees and expenses.
(c) The arbitration may be conducted in New York or, upon the plaintiff's request, in the city closest to plaintiff's location where AAA maintains an office, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding on all parties subject to these Terms and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
(d) For more information on AAA, its Rules and Procedures, and how to file an arbitration claim, you may call AAA at 800-778-7879 or visit the AAA website at www.adr.org.
(e) To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, all Disputes shall be resolved by binding confidential arbitration on an individual basis.
(f) YOU AND Roger Florist AGREE THAT THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES. NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION. YOU AND Roger Florist FURTHER AGREE THAT THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, PROVIDED HOWEVER THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO PREVENT A PARTY FROM SEEKING PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WHERE APPLICABLE LAW PROVIDES FOR SUCH A RIGHT.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent the Dispute arises from (i) a violation of your or Roger Florist's intellectual property rights in any manner; (ii) any claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, unauthorized use or a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act; and (iii) any claim for equitable relief; then both parties agree that a party may seek injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in a state or federal court consistent with the "Governing Law" section below, and both parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for Claims that are within the scope of such court's jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration.
17.Indemnity.
By using any of the Roger Florist Services, you agree to indemnify and hold Roger Florist, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents and other partners and employees harmless from any loss, liability, claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (a) your improper use of such Roger Florist Services; (b) any User Content provided or used by you; or (c) your violation of these Terms.
