19. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Binding Arbitration
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal
negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and
exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD
HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The
arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary
Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"
), both of which are available at the American Arbitration Association (AAA) website. Your arbitration
fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and,
where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration
may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator
will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by
either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the
arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the
arbitration will take place in
United States,
Minnesota
. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may
litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm,
modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the
Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the
state and
federal courts
located in
United States,
Minnesota
,
and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non
conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state
and federal courts. Application of the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information
Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Legal Terms.
If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then
neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision
found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent
jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the
personal jurisdiction of that court.
Restrictions
The Parties
agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full
extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no
right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action
procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported
representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the
above provisions concerning binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or
concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related
to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or
unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive
relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to
arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable
and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for
jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

posted by us on the Services or in respect to the Services constitute the entire agreement and
