Any dispute, claim, or controversy relating in any way to these Terms, the Services, your use of the Services, or to any products or services licensed or distributed by us will be resolved by binding arbitration as provided in this clause. Prior to commencing any formal arbitration proceedings, parties shall first seek settlement of any claim by mediation. If the dispute is not settled by mediation within 14 days of the commencement of the mediation, or such further period as the parties shall agree in writing, the dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), which are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause. The language to be used in the mediation and in the arbitration shall be English. The seat or legal place of arbitration shall be Wilmington, Delaware. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in Delaware. The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the dispute or the relief sought in the request was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose.

You and we agree that each may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective or representative proceeding. You and we expressly waive any right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. Only individual relief is available, and disputes of more than one customer or user cannot be arbitrated or consolidated with those of any other customer or user. Unless both you and we agree, no arbitrator or judge may consolidate more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court. 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 shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
