- Governing Law, Disputes, Including Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver.
Subject to the provisions of applicable law, this Policy is governed in accordance with the laws of Arizona, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and Mexico Jazz Experience hereby expressly consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Maricopa County, Phoenix, Arizona, United States of America for the adjudication or disposition of any claim, action or dispute arising out of this Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Policy, You and Mexico Jazz Experience hereby waive any and all rights to a judicial determination of any dispute or claims related to this Policy, including the right to trial by jury, and any and all disputes, claims, or causes of action between the parties arising out of or concerning this Policy or any alleged breach thereof by either party, and agree to resolve any disputes or claims through binding arbitration. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to the products or services sold or distributed by us or through us, will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court, with the following exceptions:
You may assert claims in small claims court if your claims apply;
In the event that the arbitration agreement in this Policy is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against us (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in a federal or state court located within Phoenix, AZ, and we both consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes.
The arbitration agreement in this Policy is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), including its procedural provisions, in all respects. This means that the FAA governs, among other things, the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement and all of its provisions, including, without limitation, the class action waiver discussed below. State arbitration laws do not govern in any respect.
This arbitration agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted, and will survive termination of this Policy. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to the extent permitted by law to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Policy, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Policy is void or voidable. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, 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 this Policy as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to: Mexico Jazz Experience PO Box 87947 Phoenix, AZ 85080. You may download the forms located at http://www.jamsadr.com. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures or, if applicable, its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, and any applicable supplemental rules including its Consumer Arbitration Standards of Minimum Fairness. The JAMS Rules are available online at http://www.jamsadr.com or by calling (800)-352-5267. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by JAMS’s rules. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in Phoenix, AZ. In the event that the location of the Arbitration (Phoenix, AZ) is for any reason held to be unenforceable, the Arbitration shall take place in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location.
BY MAKING YOUR PURCHASE, YOU AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. We each agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration section will be null and void and neither of us will be entitled to arbitrate our dispute. If any provision of this Policy shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from this Policy and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
