Dispute Resolution - ARBITRATION
a. Either you or we may ask to settle disputes by arbitration. Arbitration is a way of working out disputes without going to court. If you or we ask for arbitration, we would all meet with a person called an arbitrator. An arbitrator is like a referee or a judge. The arbitrator will listen to what you and we have to say. The arbitrator will decide who is right. The arbitrator’s decision is called an award. The party who wins the award can take it to any court that could have heard the dispute and get an official judgment. Please read the rest of this section carefully. It explains how arbitration works.
b. Some Legal Rights May Not Be Available in Arbitration: After any party asks for arbitration of a dispute, neither you nor we can ask a court to hear that dispute.
c. There will be no jury trial of that dispute. You cannot be part of any class action relating to that dispute. The right to get information from each other and other procedures may be more limited in arbitration than in court. With a few limited exceptions, the arbitrator’s award will be final and unchangeable. Other rights that you or we would have in a court also may not be available in arbitration.
d. What Disputes Are Covered: Any dispute that arises from or relates to this Agreement, the FundFlow Credit Repair Service, your Account and any transaction involving the Account or any service or product related to your Account will be settled by arbitration unless it is described below in "What Disputes Are Not Covered."
e. This means that disputes about the following are covered:
i. This Agreement, the FundFlow Credit Repair Service, your Account or any transaction involving the Account or any service or product related to your Account;
ii. Any advertisement, promotion or oral or written statement related to this Agreement or your Account;
iii. Any relationships that result from this Agreement or any relationship you have with us that is not also subject to a different agreement to arbitrate (including, as far as applicable law will allow, relationships with third parties who are not parties to this Agreement or this arbitration provision);
iv. The validity, interpretation, scope or enforceability of this Agreement (except for any challenge to the enforceability of this Dispute Resolution section or any dispute about the parts of this section about class disputes); and
v. Whether it is too late to settle a dispute because of any statute of limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches or similar legal rule.
f. It doesn’t matter whether the dispute is based on contract, fraud, tort, intentional tort, statute, regulation, constitution, common law, equity or otherwise. It also doesn’t matter when the dispute began (whether before this Agreement, now or in the future). This arbitration provision will continue to apply after this Agreement ends and/or after you or we close the Account.
g. What Disputes Are Not Covered: This arbitration provision does not cover any dispute:
i. That you or we could take to a small claims court, which usually limits its cases based on the amount of the claim; or
ii. About the parts of this arbitration provision that prohibit class disputes.
h. No Class Disputes: You cannot join together in a dispute with anyone. Even if other people have disputes similar to a dispute that you or we ask to arbitrate, those people and their disputes cannot be part of any arbitration between you and us. You cannot arbitrate any dispute on a class action, private attorney general or other representative basis. Only a court, and not an arbitrator, may decide whether this provision prohibiting class disputes can be enforced.
i. Who Will Arbitrate: The American Arbitration Association ("AAA") or JAMS ADR ("JAMS") may arbitrate any dispute, or you and we may agree upon a different arbitrator. For more information about arbitration, contact the AAA (www.adr.org or 1-800-778- 7879) or JAMS (www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267). If for any reason the AAA or JAMS is unable or unwilling to arbitrate, or you and we cannot agree on an arbitrator, we will use another national or regional arbitration group. The number of arbitrators will depend on the total dollar amount of all disputes by both you and us. If the total is $250,000 or less, one arbitrator will hear the dispute(s). If the total is over $250,000, three arbitrators will hear the dispute(s). Each arbitrator must be an active member in good standing of the bar for any state in the continental United States, and either: (a) actively engaged in the practice of law for at least 5 years or (b) a retired judge.
j. What Rules Apply: The arbitration of any dispute will be conducted according to the rules of the arbitrator ("Rules"). If an arbitrator other than the AAA is chosen, the Rules of the AAA will be applied to any circumstance that is not addressed by the Rules of the chosen arbitrator. If the total of all disputes is $250,000 or less, we will use any expedited procedures in the Rules. If this Agreement and the Rules say something different, we will follow this Agreement and not the Rules.
k. How To Start Arbitration: Either you or we may start an arbitration by giving written notice to the other party. At a minimum, this notice must describe the subject of the dispute and the result requested in arbitration by the party giving the notice. If you ask us to arbitrate, you can choose the AAA or JAMS, or suggest another national or regional arbitration group to arbitrate the dispute. If we ask you to arbitrate, we will give you 10 days to choose the AAA or JAMS, or to suggest another national or regional arbitration group. In either case, if you suggest an alternative to the AAA and JAMS, we will work with you to determine if you and we can agree on a different group or arbitrator. If you and we are unable to agree, the arbitration will be conducted by the AAA or, if the AAA is not available, by a similar arbitration group. The party asking for arbitration must file a notice with the arbitration group following the Rules in effect at that time.
l. When a Party May Ask for Arbitration: You or we may ask for arbitration before or after a lawsuit has been filed. You or we must ask for arbitration within the statute of limitations that would apply to the same dispute in court. If it is too late to resolve the dispute in court, it is also too late to resolve it in arbitration.
m. What the Arbitrator(s) Must and May Not Do: Each arbitrator must:
i. Limit discovery to information that is directly relevant to the dispute and is not considered confidential or otherwise protected from being made public. Discovery is the process by which you and we ask each other for information about the dispute;
ii. Make decisions and awards based on the evidence and applicable substantive law and the rules of evidence used in federal courts;
iii. Make decisions and awards only with respect to claims made by or against you individually;
iv. Give a brief written explanation of the basis for the award upon request of either party;
v. Make specific findings of fact and conclusions of law to support any award greater than $25,000; and
vi. Not make any award that would require you and us to continue any relationship we may have under this Agreement or otherwise.
n. Who Pays for Arbitration: There will be costs for arbitration. Contact the AAA or other arbitration group to find out what the arbitration charges will be. You may have to pay some of the arbitration charges unless this Agreement, an applicable law or the Rules say we must pay. If the total dollar amount of all disputes is $50,000 or less, we will pay that portion of the arbitration filing fee that is more than the cost of filing a lawsuit in the federal court where you live. You can ask us to pay some or all of the other arbitration charges you have to pay, but we don’t promise to do as you ask. At the end of the arbitration, the arbitrator(s) will decide who has to pay for any arbitration charges that are greater than those we agreed to pay. The arbitrator(s) also may order us to pay some or all of your attorneys, expert and witness fees. Unless ordered otherwise by the arbitrator(s), each of us must pay for its own attorneys, expert and witness fees, no matter who wins.
o. Where Will Arbitration Take Place: Any arbitration will take place in the federal judicial district near your home. Or, you and we could agree that arbitration will take place somewhere else.
p. What Law Applies: This arbitration provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce. The Federal Arbitration Act will apply to the construction, interpretation and enforceability of this arbitration provision despite any other choice of law provision in this Agreement.
q. Other Rights and Remedies: Nothing in this arbitration provision will limit certain other rights you or we may have. This means that you or we could, for example:
i. Get an injunction, which is a court order to stop someone from doing something; or
ii. File an interpleader action, which is a type of lawsuit used to decide who owns property that more than one person claims to own.
iii. If you or we do any of these things or take part in any other court case, it does not affect your or our rights under this arbitration provision.
r. What Happens If Part or All of This Arbitration Provision Cannot Be Enforced: Only a court and not an arbitrator can determine if any part of this arbitration provision cannot be enforced. If a court with proper jurisdiction says that any part of the "No Class Disputes" subsection above (which prohibits arbitration of class disputes) cannot be enforced, then none of the arbitration section in this Agreement will apply, and this section will be considered deleted from the Agreement. If a court with proper jurisdiction says that any other part of this arbitration provision cannot be enforced, then the rest of this arbitration subsection still will apply, including the "No Class Disputes" subsection above.
s. Waiver Of Jury Trial: This provision limits your rights to a jury trial. You should review this section carefully. If you and we have any dispute related to this Agreement, the FundFlow Credit Repair Service, your Account, or any transactions involving your Account or any service or product relating to your Account and (i) neither you nor we seek to compel arbitration of the dispute, or (ii) some or all of the arbitration section is unenforceable and the dispute will be resolved in court, then you and we agree voluntarily and knowingly to waive any right each may have to a jury trial to the fullest extent permitted by law.
t. Attorneys’ Fees. In any action between you and us in court, the prevailing party will be entitled to receive from the other party an amount equal to the reasonable attorneys’ fees the prevailing party incurred in bringing or defending the court action.
