  22. BINDING ARBITRATION

    PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IN THIS SECTION (“ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”) CAREFULLY - IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT

    1. Initial Dispute Resolution

      Our Customer Support Department is available at help@discountmags.com to address concerns you may have regarding our services. The parties shall use their best efforts through this Customer Service process to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement through good faith negotiations before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding in arbitration or otherwise. This includes first sending a written description of the dispute to the other party. For any dispute you initiate, the written description must be on an individual basis and provide at least the following information: your name; a description of the nature or basis of the claim or dispute; and the specific relief sought.

      You and DiscountMags.com then agree to negotiate in good faith about the dispute through an informal telephonic dispute resolution conference. The informal telephonic dispute resolution conferences shall be individualized such that a separate conference must be held each time either party intends to commence individual arbitration; multiple individuals initiating claims cannot participate in the same informal telephonic dispute resolution conference. If either party is represented by counsel, that party's counsel may participate in the informal telephonic dispute resolution conference, but the party also must appear at and participate in the conference. If the dispute is not resolved satisfactorily through this informal process within thirty (30) days after receipt of the written description of the dispute, you and DiscountMags.com agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.

      The aforementioned informal dispute resolution process is a prerequisite and condition precedent to commencing any formal dispute resolution proceeding. The parties agree that any relevant limitations period and filing fee or other deadlines will be tolled while the parties engage in this informal dispute resolution process. Failure to engage in this process could result in the award of fees against you in arbitration.

    2. Binding Arbitration

      You and DiscountMags.com agree that all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance and breach), your purchase of magazine subscriptions or enrollment in DiscountLock, the parties' relationship with each other and/or your use of the Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the supplementary procedures for consumer related disputes of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. If there is a conflict between the AAA Rules (or the rules of the alternative arbitral forum selected by the parties) and the rules set forth in these Terms, the rules set forth in these Terms will govern. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

      The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, and any dispute regarding the payment of AAA administrative or arbitrator fees (including the timing of such payments and remedies for nonpayment). The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator's award shall be written, final, and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall follow the applicable law.

      The Commercial Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at +1.800.778.7879. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, DiscountMags.com will pay the additional cost. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, DiscountMags.com will pay all of the actual filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration, provided your claim does not exceed $75,000. You are responsible for all other additional costs that you may incur in the arbitration including, without limitation, attorney's fees and expert witness costs unless DiscountMags.com is specifically required to pay such fees under the arbitration rules or applicable law.

      The parties agree that AAA has discretion to modify the amount or timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under AAA's Rules where it deems appropriate (including as specified in Section 22(e)), provided that such modification does not increase the costs to you, and you waive any objection to such fee modification. The parties also agree that a good-faith challenge by either party to the fees imposed by AAA does not constitute a default, waiver, or breach of this Section 22 while such challenge remains pending before AAA, the arbitrator, and/or a court of competent jurisdiction, and that any and all due dates for those fees shall be tolled during the pendency of such challenge.

      YOU AND DISCOUNTMAGS.COM HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT (OTHER THAN SMALL CLAIMS COURT AS PERMITTED HEREIN) AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and DiscountMags.com are instead electing that all covered claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified below. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review. In some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

    3. Location of Arbitration

      If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration will take place in the county where you reside at the time of filing. If you are not a resident of the United States, arbitration will take place in the County of Pima, State of Arizona, United States of America, provided that you may appear videographically (or telephonically) in lieu of appearing in person; if you appear videographically (or telephonically), we will as well. You and DiscountMags.com agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or superior court in the County of Pima, Arizona in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

    4. Exception - Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims

      Notwithstanding the parties' decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an action in state or federal court to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court's jurisdiction.

    5. Batch Arbitration

      To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, in the event 100 or more similar arbitration demands (those asserting the same or substantially similar facts, and seeking the same or substantially similar relief) presented by or with the assistance or coordination of the same law firm(s) or organization(s) are submitted to AAA (or another arbitration provider selected in accordance with Section 22(b) if AAA is unavailable) against DiscountMags.com within reasonably close proximity, the arbitration provider shall (i) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 demands per batch (to the extent there are fewer than 100 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch will consist of the remaining demands); (ii) designate one arbitrator for each batch; and (iii) provide for a single filing fee due per side per batch. Arbitrator selection for each batch shall be conducted to the greatest extent possible in accordance with the applicable AAA rules and procedures for such selection, and the arbitrator will determine the location where the proceedings will be conducted. You agree to cooperate in good faith with DiscountMags.com and the arbitration provider to implement such a “batch approach” or other similar approach to provide for an efficient resolution of claims, including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of claims. This "Batch Arbitration" provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing class arbitration of any kind. DiscountMags.com does not agree or consent to class arbitration, private attorney general arbitration, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as set forth in this section 22(e).

    6. 30-Day Right to Opt Out

      The notice must be sent within 30 days of your first becoming subject to this Arbitration section; if you do not send us such a notice, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those paragraphs. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, DiscountMags.com also will not be bound by them, and all other party of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have with us, or may enter into in the future with us.

    7. Parents, Subsidiaries, Affiliates

      This Arbitration Section will also apply to any claims asserted by you against any present or future parent, subsidiary, or affiliated company of DiscountMags.com, or any employee, officer, director, or investor of DiscountMags.com, 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 (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), the Services, any person's access to and/or use of the Services, and/or the provision of content, products, services, and/or technology on or through the Services.

    8. Changes to this Section

      DiscountMags.com will provide 60-days' notice of any changes to this section. Changes will become effective on the 60th day, and will apply prospectively only to any claims arising after the 60th day.

    9. Severability

      If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

    10. Survival of Agreement

      This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination or expiration of the Terms or your relationship with DiscountMags.com.

  23. CLASS ACTION WAIVER

    PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

    Except as set forth in Section 22(e), the parties further agree that any dispute shall be resolved in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND WE 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. DiscountMags.com and you further agree to not participate in any consolidated, class, or representative proceeding (existing or future) brought by any third party arising out of or relating to any dispute with a third party.

    The arbitrator cannot combine more than one person's or entity's claims into a single case, and cannot preside over any consolidated, class or representative proceeding (unless we agree otherwise). And, the arbitrator's decision or award in one person's or entity's case can only impact the person or entity that brought the claim, not other DiscountMags.com customers, and cannot be used to decide other disputes with other customers.

    If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this section or that Section 22(e) is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a court or arbitrator (or where applicable, AAA) determine that either the Class Action and Collective Relief Waiver or the provisions in Section 22(e) are not enforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief and all appeals from that decision have been exhausted (or the decision is otherwise final), then the parties agree that that particular claim or request for relief may proceed in court but shall be severed and stayed pending arbitration of the remaining claims. This provision does not prevent you or DiscountMags from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.

    If any clause within this class action waiver section is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that specific clause will be severed from this section, and the remainder of its provisions will be given full force and effect.

    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 DiscountMags.com, or any employee, officer, director, or investor of DiscountMags.com, and to any claims asserted by any of them against you, to the extent that any such claims is a dispute.

    This Class Action Waiver section shall survive any termination of your account or the Services.
