    2. If you and Company cannot resolve any dispute after 30 days, the party seeking to pursue a claim will submit the claim to arbitration consistent with this section. The parties understand that they would have had a right or opportunity to litigate disputes through a court and to have a judge or jury decide their case, but they choose to have any disputes resolved through arbitration.

    3. Any claim or dispute between you and Company, and any claim by either against any agent, employee, successor, or assign of the other, including third parties, whether related to these Terms or otherwise, including past, present, and future claims and disputes, and including any dispute as to the validity or applicability of this arbitration clause, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the JAMS under its rules and procedures in effect when the claim is filed.

    4. Either You or Company may bring applicable claims in small claims court. Also, you and Company each agree that any arbitration will be solely between you and us, not as part of a classwide claim. If any court or arbitrator determines that this classwide restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement to arbitrate does not apply and the classwide dispute must be brought in court.

    5. Nothing in this Section 16 will limit Company’s ability to seek equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

  9. Class Action Waiver. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, YOU AND COMPANY EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE A DISPUTE ON A CLASSWIDE BASIS, INCLUDING BY JOINING A CLAIM WITH THE CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY OR TO ASSERT A CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF ANYONE ELSE IN ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING.

  12. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights.

  13. Force Majeure. Company will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside its reasonable control or unforeseen circumstances, such as acts of nature, fire, flood, earthquake, accidents, strikes, war, terrorism, governmental act, failure of common carriers (including without limitation internet service providers and web hosting providers), or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor, or materials.

  14. Complete Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive agreement between you and Company with respect to the Services, and supersede and replace any other agreements, terms and conditions applicable to the Services. The headers for these Terms are for convenience only and will not affect the interpretation of these Terms. If a provision of these Terms is found unenforceable the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible.

  15. Assignment. Company may assign any of its rights under these Terms to an affiliate or to any successor in interest to the business of Company. You may not assign your rights under these Terms and any such purported assignment is void.

  16. Waiver of Terms. The failure of Company to enforce these Terms for any period of time does not constitute a waiver of its right to enforce these Terms.
