Dispute Resolution and Arbitration. This Section 22 applies only to residents of the United States or any other jurisdiction outside of Canada.
1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Body M3 in the most expedient and cost effective manner, if you are a resident of the United States or any other jurisdiction outside of Canada, you and Body M3 agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND BODY M3 ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
2. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 22.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
3. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Body M3 will be settled under the arbitration laws provided for in the Quebec Civil Code (Books 5 and 10) and the Quebec Code of Civil Procedure (Book 7) (the “Rules”).
4. Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified mail or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). Body M3’s address for Notice is: 15-4119 Madison Avenue, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H4B 2T8. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Body M3 may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Body M3 must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Body M3 will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Body M3 in the settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
5. Fees. The party that elects to commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, will be responsible for the payment of the filing fee.
6. Place of Arbitration. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in the Province of Quebec, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, we may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance-based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the Rules.
7. Arbitrator’s Decision. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, then the payment of all fees will be governed by the Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Body M3 for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
8. No Class Actions. YOU AND BODY M3 AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Body M3 agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
9. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Body M3 makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Body M3’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Body M3’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Body M3 will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
10. Enforceability. If Section 22.6 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 22 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 22 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 20 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
Consent to Electronic Communications. By using the Service, you consent to receiving certain electronic communications from us as further described in our Privacy Policy. Please read our Privacy Policy to learn more about our electronic communications practices. You agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that those communications be in writing.
