20. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Informal Negotiations
T o expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these
Legal T erms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you or us
(individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to
negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least
thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written
notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding Arbitration
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except
those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding
arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE
RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced
and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association
("AAA*) and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related
Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org.
Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA
Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration
may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. Thearbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless
requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be
challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable
AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Except as
otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay
proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award
entered by the arbitrator.
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 Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and
the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum
non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts.
Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods
and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Legal
T erms.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Services be
commenced more than one (1) years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is 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 and such Dispute shall be decided
by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties
agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties
individually. T o 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 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. If this provision is 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 and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent
jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the
personal jurisdiction of that court.21. CORRECTIONS
