21. Web Site Dispute resolution – arbitration, jury trial waiver, and class action waiver

Neither you nor we will be able to sue in court in connection with a Web Site Dispute. All Web Site Disputes must be resolved through individual (non-class) arbitration. You indicate your acceptance to these Terms and Conditions, including this agreement to arbitrate, by continuing to use the Site after having the opportunity to review these Terms and Conditions.

You and adidas intend for this to be an agreement for arbitration that can be enforced under the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), 9 U.S.C.A. §§ 1–16.

You and adidas waive any rights to maintain other available resolution processes for Web Site Disputes, such as a court action or administrative proceeding, to settle disputes. You and adidas waive any right to a jury trial for Web Site Disputes.

Instead of suing in court, we each agree to settle Web Site Disputes only by arbitration. The rules in arbitration are different. There’s no judge or jury, and review is limited, but an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief, and must honor the same limitations stated in the agreement as a court would.

Any Web Site Dispute shall be determined by arbitration in Oregon before one arbitrator(s). The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. If for any reason, JAMS cannot or will not provide this arbitration, the parties may ask any court of competent jurisdiction to select an arbitrator from a list provided by the parties.

To the extent a party commences any action with includes both Web Site Disputes and Non-Web Site Disputes, consideration of the Non-Web Site Disputes shall be stayed until the Web Site Disputes are fully arbitrated. Then, any Non-Web Site Disputes will be considered by any court of competent jurisdiction.

You agree that you will not file a class action against adidas and its affiliated companies, or participate in a class action against adidas and its affiliated companies, in any Web Site Dispute. You agree that you will not file or seek a class arbitration, or participate in a class arbitration against adidas and its affiliated companies, in any Web Site Dispute.

Sections 9 (User Generated Content – Your License to Us); 11 (Access and Interference), 15 (Limitation of Liability), 16 (Legal Notice to New Jersey Residents), 17 (Indemnity), and 18 (Release) shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
