21. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
Please read this carefully if you are a resident of the United States of America. It affects your rights.
(a) Applicable Law. These Terms will be subject to and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, United States of America, excluding its rules regarding conflicts of law. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against FieldLevel must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in the State of California, except as otherwise agreed by the parties or as described in the Arbitration subsection below. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located in San Diego County, California for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.
(b) Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek arbitration as provided below, the party must first send to the other party a written notice of dispute ("Notice") describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. After the Notice is received, you and FieldLevel may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and FieldLevel do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding as provided below.
(c) Arbitration You agree that FieldLevel may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost-effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. In the event FieldLevel elects arbitration, you hereby agree to move any claims to the exclusive jurisdiction of an arbitration procedure, which shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association or another established alternative dispute resolution provider (collectively, "ADR") chosen by FieldLevel. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (i) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (ii) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties, in which case the location of the arbitration shall be San Diego County, California, and (iii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Arbitration expressly excludes claims for injunctive or other equitable relief.
(d) Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU HEREBY WAIVE YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. In the event any litigation should arise between you and FieldLevel in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.
(e) Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THESE TERMS MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER.
