13.  DISPUTE, ARBITRATION, AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

a.     Initial Dispute Resolution. We are available by email at itvus_privacyteam@itv.com and by mail at ITV America Inc., 5250 Lankershim Blvd, 3rd Floor, North Hollywood, CA 91601 to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Services. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. You agree to use best efforts to settle any Dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

b.     Agreement to Binding Arbitration. For users of the Services that reside in North America, if we do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal Dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 11(a) above, then either you or we may initiate binding arbitration. Except for any Disputes excluded below in Section 11(d), all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other and/or your use of the Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered on a confidential basis by JAMS, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitration shall be conducted in the Los Angeles County, California, and claims regarding the judgment of the arbitrator (including entry of judgment on the arbitration award) may be brought in Los Angeles County, California. 

Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. The parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. 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 is void or voidable. 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 in writing and provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions, shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. 

The interpretation and enforcement of these Terms shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act. The JAMS rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures. If you initiate arbitration, to the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds Two Hundred and Fifty U.S. Dollars ($250) and the claim is found to be non-frivolous, we will pay the additional cost. If we are required to pay the additional cost of the filing fees, you should submit a request for payment of fees to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. We will also be responsible for paying all other arbitration costs arising in connection with the arbitration, other than costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses not constituting fees or amounts payable to JAMS. You will not be required to pay fees and costs incurred by us if you do not prevail in arbitration. We will also pay JAMS to reimburse you for any portion of the $250 filing fee that is more than what you would otherwise have to pay to file suit in a court of law. You understand that, absent this mandatory provision, you would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. You further understand that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

c.      Class Action and Class Arbitration Waiver. You and we each further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in our respective individual capacities only and not as a class action, and you and we each expressly waive our respective right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above in Section 11(b) shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate Disputes.

d.     Exceptions. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all Disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief (i) in a small claims court for Disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction, and (ii) any Disputes relating to intellectual property rights, obligations, or any infringement claims.

e.     30 Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in Sections 13(b) and 13(c) by sending written notice of your decision to opt out by emailing us at  itvus_privacyteam@itv.com. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Services, or the effective date of the first set of these Terms containing an Arbitration and Class Action and Class Arbitration Waiver section otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate Disputes in accordance with the terms of those sections. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them.

f.      Term for Cause of Action. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the use of the Services or the Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

g.     Exclusive Venue for Litigation. To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 13(b) do not apply or if you have opted out of arbitration, you agree that any litigation shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). In the event of litigation relating to these Terms or the Services, you agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial, except where a jury trial waiver is not permissible under applicable law.

h.     Governing Law and Rules. These Terms and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the provision in this paragraph with respect to applicable substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to these Terms shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1-16). In any arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms, the arbitrator is not empowered to award punitive or exemplary damages, except where such empowerment is required by statute, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages. In any arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms, the arbitrator may not award any incidental, indirect, or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits. The parties adopt and agree to implement the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure (as it exists on the effective date of these Terms) with respect to any final award in an arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms.

i.       Exception – California Privacy Attorney Generals Act (PAGA) Action. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all Disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim arising under California’s Private Attorneys General Act.

14.  TERMINATION

The provisions of these Terms concerning protection of intellectual property rights, prohibited use, user submitted content, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnity, and disputes, as well as any other provisions that by their nature should survive, shall survive any such termination.

15.  MISCELLANEOUS

  1. No Waiver. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. 
  2. Severability. If any provision of the Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect.
