Dispute Resolution, Arbitration Agreement, Class Action Waiver
Initial Dispute Resolution Procedure
Notice of Dispute, Requirement to Attempt to Resolve Disputes Informally.
By visiting the Sites and/or using the Services you and Dealership agree that if there is any controversy, claim, action, proceeding, demand, or dispute arising out of or related to your visit to the Sites, use of the Services, or the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of this Privacy Policy or any part of it (hereinafter “Dispute”), both you and we shall first try in good faith to resolve such Dispute informally by providing written notice to the other party describing the facts and circumstances of the Dispute and allowing the receiving party thirty (30) calendar days in which to respond to or resolve the Dispute. Notice shall be sent to us at ATTN: PO Box 280809, Memphis, TN, 38168 , and to you at the address or email we have on file for you. Both you and the Dealership agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a condition precedent that must be satisfied before initiating any litigation or filing any claim against the other party. This notice and informal resolution requirement will not apply to the extent it is prohibited by law.
Arbitration, Class Action Waiver
IF ANY DISPUTE CANNOT BE RESOLVED BY THE ABOVE INITIAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE, WE BOTH AGREE THAT THE DISPUTE WILL BE DECIDED BY BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
This means that if you and we have a Dispute that is not resolved in the informal process described in section 3.1 above, we both agree to resolve it through arbitration. Arbitration means that a neutral third party will hear both sides and make a decision. This is different from a court trial, where a judge or jury hears the case in a formal court setting and makes a decision. We both agree not to sue each other in court. This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). The arbitration will be before a single arbitrator and the arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding on both of us. The arbitration will be held pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association - Consumer Arbitration Rules (if you are a business, the American Arbitration Association - Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply instead) (as applicable, the “Rules”). You can access a copy of the rules at: www.adr.org/rules. The Rules provide the steps required to start an arbitration case.
This arbitration agreement does not apply to Disputes that you or we bring against the other party that are within the jurisdiction of small claims court. If the amount in controversy of a Dispute in small claims court exceeds the jurisdiction of the small claims court, that Dispute will be subject to this arbitration agreement.
Class action waiver. We both agree that any Dispute will be handled individually. This means that you or we cannot join together with other people who have a similar problem to bring a single case against the other party. You also cannot be part of a class action lawsuit (or class action arbitration) against us, and we cannot be a part of a class action lawsuit (or class action arbitration) against you. By using our Services, and visiting our Site, you agree to this arbitration agreement and class action waiver. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services or visit our Site. If any part of this arbitration agreement and/or class action waiver is found to be invalid or cannot be enforced, the rest of the arbitration agreement and class action waiver will still apply. The arbitrator will decide if any part is invalid or cannot be enforced.
Other Arbitration Agreements
In the event of a conflict between this arbitration agreement and any other arbitration agreement between you and the us, such as an arbitration agreement contained in a retail installment sale contract, purchase order, lease agreement, or repair estimate (hereinafter “Other Arbitration Agreement”), the terms of the Other Arbitration Agreement shall govern and prevail in each instance.
Venue And Choice Of Law
This Policy has been made in, and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of Tennessee without giving effect to any conflict of law principles. Any disputes or claims not subject to the arbitration provision discussed above shall be resolved by a court located in that state and you agree and submit to the exercise of personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim or action.
Miscellaneous
You warrant and represent to the Dealership that you have all necessary rights, power, and authority to agree to these Terms and perform your obligations hereunder, and nothing contained in this Agreement or in the performance of such obligations will place you in breach of any other contract or obligation. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. Any new features, changes, updates or improvements of the Program shall be subject to these Terms unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing. The Dealership reserves the right to change these Terms from time to time. Any updates to these Terms shall be communicated to you. You acknowledge your responsibility to review these Terms from time to time and to be aware of any such changes. By continuing to participate in the Program after any such changes, you accept these Terms, as modified. You further warrant and represent that you will not provide to the Dealership any telephone number that is not assigned to you, and that if you obtain a new telephone number, you will promptly notify the Dealership that your prior telephone number is no longer assigned to you.
