20. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION
20.1 General Provisions
For the expeditious and economical resolution of disputes arising from or relating to these Terms, you and XAG Australia concur that all such disputes shall be resolved via binding arbitration. Arbitration, a more streamlined procedure than court litigation, involves adjudication by a neutral arbitrator as opposed to a judge or jury and may permit more limited discovery. Furthermore, the review by courts of arbitration awards is generally restricted. Arbitrators are vested with the power to grant the same damages and forms of relief that a court can bestow. This agreement to arbitrate applies to all claims stemming from or related to any aspect of these Terms, irrespective of whether such claims are founded in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether such a claim emerges during or subsequent to the termination of these Terms. By your acquiescence to these Terms, you comprehend and consent, along with XAG Australia, to the waiver of the right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action.
20.2 Exemptions
Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 20.1, nothing in these Terms shall be interpreted as relinquishing, obstructing, or otherwise limiting the right of either party to: (a) initiate an individual action in a small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through a relevant federal, state, or local agency, if such an action is permissible; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) institute a legal suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
20.3 Arbitration Management
Arbitration between you and XAG Australia shall be administered under the purview of the Australian Centre for International Commercial Arbitration ("ACICA") and shall be conducted in accordance with its Arbitration Rules, as tailored by these Terms. Information regarding the ACICA Arbitration Rules and relevant filing forms can be procured online at www.acica.org.au or by contacting XAG Australia.
20.4 Notification Procedure and Process
Any party intending to seek arbitration must initially forward a written notice of the dispute to the other party via certified mail or express courier (requiring a signature), or via electronic mail if the other party has not provided a current physical address (“Notice”). Such Notice must elucidate the nature and foundation of the claim or dispute and articulate the specific relief sought (“Demand”). While the parties shall make earnest efforts to resolve the claim directly, in the event of non-resolution within 30 days post receipt of the Notice, either you or XAG Australia may initiate an arbitration proceeding. Any settlement offer made by either party during the arbitration process must remain undisclosed to the arbitrator until a final decision and award, if any, is rendered. If the dispute is conclusively resolved in your favor through arbitration, XAG Australia shall remunerate you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount tendered by XAG Australia prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
20.5 Prohibition of Class Actions
YOU AND XAG AUSTRALIA CONCUR THAT ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE BROUGHT IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Unless you and XAG Australia mutually agree otherwise, the arbitrator shall not consolidate the claims of more than one individual and shall not preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
20.6 Amendments to This Arbitration Provision
Should XAG Australia make any future amendments to this arbitration provision, barring a change to XAG Australia's address for Notice, you may reject the modification by dispatching a written notice to XAG Australia within 30 days of the amendment, in which case your account with XAG Australia shall be terminated forthwith and this arbitration provision, in the form immediately prior to the rejected changes, shall endure.
20.7 Enforceability
If Section 20.5 is adjudicated as unenforceable, or if this entire Section 20 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 20 (with the exception of Section 20.5 in the latter case) shall be null and void. In such a circumstance, the parties concur that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 18 shall preside over any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
21. CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
By accessing our Site, you provide your consent to receive specific electronic communications from us, as further detailed in our Privacy Policy.
