12. BINDING ARBITRATION, NO CLASS ACTION

Please read this section carefully. Each participant understands and agrees that they waive their right to sue or go to court to assert or defend their rights connected with the Promotion and these Official Rules. 

(A) Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes:  As a condition of participation, each participant and Sponsor agrees that any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to the Promotion, these Official Rules, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, and including the determination of the scope or applicability of this arbitration provision (each, a “Claim”) shall be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding.  Each participant and Sponsor agrees that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Official Rules and that this arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Official Rules.

(B) Class Action Waiver: Each participant and Sponsor agrees that either of them may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.  Further, if the parties’ dispute is resolved through arbitration, neither JAMS nor the arbitrator may consolidate another person’s claims with participant’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding for any purpose. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 12 shall be null and void.

(C) Limited Remedies: Additionally, except as may be provided for in Subsection 12(D), below, or prohibited by law, each participant and Sponsor agrees that, for any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Promotion, these Official Rules or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, their remedies are limited to a claim for money damages (if any) and they each irrevocably waive any right to seek injunctive or equitable relief. 

(D) Exceptions and Opt-out: Notwithstanding Subsections 12(A) and 12(B), above, each participant and Sponsor retains the right to:

(i) seek to resolve a Claim in small claims court if it qualifies; and

(ii) seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of their respective intellectual property rights.

In addition, each participant will retain the right to opt out of arbitration entirely and litigate any Claim if such participant provides Sponsor with written notice of such participant’s desire to do so by regular mail sent to the attention of Sponsor’s Legal Department at the address set out in Section 4(b) above, within thirty (30) days following the date such participant first agrees to these Official Rules.

(E) Dispute Resolution and Notification of Claims: Prior to bringing a Claim, each Participant and Sponsor agrees to provide notice to the other party and attempt, in good faith, to negotiate an informal resolution.  To begin this process, before initiating any arbitration proceeding, the party seeking to bring a Claim must send a notice of Claim (“Notice”) by certified mail to the other party.  All Notices to Sponsor must be sent to the address set out in Section 4(b) above. The Notice must describe the nature and basis of the Claim and the relief sought. If the parties are unable to resolve the potential Claim within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the Notice, then the participant or Sponsor may initiate arbitration proceedings as set out below.

(F) Arbitration Process and Rules:  Any arbitration will be conducted by JAMS pursuant to its procedural rules for commercial disputes (“JAMS Rules”), using the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures when applicable. The JAMS Rules are available at https://www.jamsadr.com.  A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to JAMS and give notice to the other party as specified in the JAMS Rules. JAMS provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.jamsadr.com. JAMS will appoint an arbitrator. When practical, the arbitrator should have prior subject matter knowledge and familiarity with sweepstakes and other applicable laws in the State of California. The arbitration may be conducted via video-conference or in-person in the county (or other municipality) where the participant lives, unless the participant and Sponsor both agree to a different location.  The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of this arbitration agreement. The arbitrator shall provide a decision explaining the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions, and the ruling may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding upon the parties to these Official Rules.

(G) Arbitration Costs: Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules. If a participant asserts a claim against Sponsor, such participant will be responsible for paying the consumer filing fee. Sponsor will pay for all other JAMS-included fees (including filing, administration, and arbitrator fees and expenses). Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and any other costs it incurs. If any party prevails on a statutory claim that affords a prevailing party attorneys’ fees and costs, or if there is a written agreement providing for attorneys’ fees and costs, the arbitrator will award such costs and fees per the applicable statute or written agreement. The arbitrator shall resolve any dispute regarding the reasonableness of any fee or cost that may be awarded under this paragraph.

(H) Confidentiality: To the extent permitted by law, the existence of the arbitration, the arbitration proceedings, and the outcome of the arbitration will be treated as confidential and will not be disclosed by either the participant or Sponsor. Each participant and Sponsor agrees that an award, and any judgment confirming it, only applies to the arbitration in which it was awarded and cannot be used in any other proceeding except to enforce the award itself and any post-arbitration action seeking to enforce an arbitration award or action seeking equitable or injunctive relief shall be brought exclusively in the courts in Los Angeles, California.

(I) Severability: If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the rules and procedures established by JAMS, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein.

13. CHOICE OF LAW. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of the participant and Sponsor in connection with the Promotion shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California.

14. PRIVACY AND PUBLICITY. All personal information collected by Sponsor will be used for administration of the Promotion or as otherwise permitted under applicable law. Sponsor reserves the right, and all participants expressly agree, that Sponsor may use the name and/or pseudonym of the selected participant and/or all photographs and videos at whatever location such visual material may be produced, except as prohibited by law. Use may include the Internet, such as the websites of Sponsor, its social network pages including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etc. and other publicity, magazines, catalogs or other media. In addition, participants may receive electronic communication from, or on behalf of Sponsor subject to Sponsor’s privacy policy.
