13. Arbitration and Governing Law

The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof), the SearchDirect Services, or the Website shall be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association. The one exception to the exclusivity of arbitration is that you have the right to bring an individual claim against the Company in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction. But whether you choose arbitration or small-claims court, you may not under any circumstances commence or maintain against the Company any class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding.

By using the SearchDirect Services in any manner, you agree to the above arbitration agreement. In doing so, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend any claims between you and the Company (except for matters that may be taken to small-claims court). AS FURTHER SET FORTH IN SECTION 14, YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing before the arbitrator. The arbitrator can grant any relief that a court can, but you should note that arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons. For details on the arbitration process, see our Arbitration Procedures.

Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against the Company (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Seminole County, Sanford. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. This Agreement, and any dispute between you and the Company, shall be governed by the laws of the state of North Carolina without regard to principles of conflicts of law, provided that this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

14. Class Action Waiver PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

SearchDirect and you agree that SearchDirect and you will resolve any disputes, claims or controversies on an individual basis, and that any disputes, claims, and controversies arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability) or the SearchDirect Services (for example, relating to any person’s access to or use of the SearchDirect Services, or the provision of content, products, services, or technology on or through the SearchDirect Services, or the handling of information collected on the SearchDirect Services), will be brought in an individual capacity, and not on behalf of, or as part of, any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. SearchDirect and you further agree that SearchDirect and you shall not participate in any consolidated, class, or representative proceeding (existing or future) brought by any third party arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability) or the SearchDirect Services (for example, relating to any person’s access to or use of the SearchDirect Services, or the provision of content, products, services, or technology on or through the Service, or the handling of information collected on the SearchDirect Services). If any court or arbitrator determines that the class/consolidated/representative action waiver set forth in this section is void or unenforceable for any reason or that arbitration can proceed on a class, consolidated, or representative basis, then the disputes, claims or controversies will not be subject to arbitration and must be litigated in federal court located in Seminole County, Sanford. This Class Action Waiver section will also apply to any claims asserted by you against any present or future parent, subsidiary or affiliated company of SearchDirect, and to any claims asserted by any of them against you, to the extent that any such claims arise out of or relate to these Terms of Service (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability) or the SearchDirect Services (for example, relating to any person’s access to or use of the SearchDirect Services, or the provision of content, products, services, or technology on or through the SearchDirect Services, or the handling of information collected on the SearchDirect Services).
