Arbitration Clause:
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or relating to this Privacy Policy, including its breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity, will be resolved through final and binding individual arbitration in Miami, Florida. The arbitration will be conducted in English and administered by the Office of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (JAMS) per its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures or its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitration award may be entered as a judgment in any court with jurisdiction. This clause does not prevent parties from seeking provisional remedies from a court of appropriate jurisdiction.
For non-U.S. residents, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising from or relating to this Privacy Policy will be referred to and finally determined through final and binding individual arbitration under the JAMS International Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will take place in Miami, Florida, and will be conducted in English. The arbitral award may be entered as a judgment in any court with jurisdiction.
Negotiation in Advance of Arbitration:
The parties will make a good faith attempt to resolve any dispute arising from or relating to this Privacy Policy through negotiation. Each party will appoint executives with authority to settle the dispute. The parties may proceed to arbitration if the dispute is unresolved within a specified timeframe. The negotiation process and any statements made during the negotiation will be confidential and inadmissible in any arbitration or legal proceeding, except for evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable.
Please note that before the first meeting, neither party will initiate arbitration or litigation related to this Privacy Policy except for pursuing provisional remedies authorized by law, JAMS Rules, or mutual agreement.
Requirements for Modification or Revocation:
This agreement to arbitrate remains in effect even after the termination of your relationship with Zona B.F.G. It can only be modified or revoked by a written agreement between Zona B.F.G and yourself, explicitly stating the intent to modify or revoke this agreement to arbitrate.
Claims Covered by Arbitration Clause:
By agreeing to this Privacy Policy, you and Zona B.F.G consent to resolve any claims or controversies (referred to as “Claims”) through final and binding arbitration. This includes Claims made by Zona B.F.G against you, Claims made by you against Zona B.F.G, and Claims involving any past, present, or future affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, or agents of Zona B.F.G. The Claims covered by this arbitration clause include breach of contract claims, tort claims, trade secret claims, unfair business practice claims, and claims arising from violating laws or regulations.
Required Notice of Claims and Statute of Limitations:
To initiate arbitration, Zona B.F.G or you must serve or mail a written notice to the other party specifying the Claims asserted. The notice should be served within the applicable limitations period set by federal or state law. After the demand for arbitration is made, the party demanding arbitration must file a demand for arbitration with JAMS in Miami, Florida.
Selection of Arbitrator:
Within 30 days of commencing arbitration, Zona B.F.G will select an arbitrator from the JAMS panel. The arbitrator will serve as a neutral, independent, and impartial decision-maker.
Confidentiality:
Both parties must maintain the confidentiality of the arbitration proceeding and any resulting award, except as necessary for the preparation or conduct of the arbitration or as required by law or a judicial decision.
Dispositive Motions:
If either party wishes to make a dispositive motion, they must first submit a brief letter explaining the merits of the motion and how it would expedite and streamline the arbitration process. The arbitrator will then decide whether to proceed with further briefing and arguments on the motion, setting page limits and an accelerated schedule if necessary. The pendency of such a motion typically does not stay or adjourn other aspects of the arbitration.
Document Requests:
In arbitration related to this Privacy Policy, requests for documents must be limited to those directly relevant to significant issues or the case’s outcome. The requests should have specific time frames, subject matters, and relevant parties or entities. Broad requests such as “all documents directly or indirectly related to” should be avoided.
E-Discovery:
Regarding electronic documents, production should be limited to sources used in the ordinary course of business. Backup servers, tapes, or other media may not be required unless a compelling need is shown. The production of electronic documents should be in a searchable format using generally available technology that is convenient and economical for both parties. Metadata may not be required, except for header fields in email correspondence. The description of custodians whose electronic documents may be collected should be narrowly tailored to include only those individuals whose documents may contain material evidence. If the costs and burdens of e-discovery are disproportionate, the arbitrator may deny requests or order disclosure with the requesting party advancing the reasonable cost of production.
Interrogatories and Requests to Admit:
In arbitration related to this Privacy Policy, no interrogatories or requests to admit are required.
Depositions:
In any arbitration related to this Privacy Policy, each party may take a maximum of three (3) discovery depositions, totaling no more than fifteen (15) hours. The overall period for conducting depositions should not exceed six (6) weeks.
Governing Law and Arbitrator Authority:
The Privacy Policy and the parties’ rights are governed by Florida’s laws, excluding conflict or choice of law rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs any arbitration conducted under this Privacy Policy. The arbitrator will apply the substantive laws of Florida, federal law, or international law as applicable to the claims asserted. The arbitrator has the exclusive authority to resolve any disputes regarding this Privacy Policy’s interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation, including any claim that the Privacy Policy is void or voidable.
Arbitration Decision:
The arbitrator’s decision is final, binding, and not subject to appeal. The arbitrator will issue a written decision stating the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision or award is based. The decision or award can be enforced by a court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree to the confidentiality of the arbitral award and proceedings, filing them with a court under a confidential seal only to enforce the award or decision.
Application for Emergency Injunctive and/or Other Equitable Relief:
JAMS Comprehensive Rules will apply for the appointment of an Emergency Arbitrator to address and decide requests for emergency relief.
Waiver of Representative/Class Action Proceedings:
By agreeing to this Privacy Policy, you agree to bring any claims against Zona B.F.G. as an individual and not as part of a representative, collective, or class action. You waive the right to participate in any representative, collective, or class action proceeding relating to claims governed by this Privacy Policy. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims from multiple individuals or preside over representative actions.
Waiver of Jury Trial/Exclusive Remedy:
By agreeing to arbitration, both Zona B.F.G. and you waive any constitutional right to a jury or court trial for covered claims.
Arbitration Fees and Costs:
Each party is responsible for its costs and expenses in the arbitration, including one-half (1/2) of the arbitrator’s fees and costs. The arbitrator may award attorneys’ fees and costs to Zona B.F.G. if it is the prevailing party. The decision or award of the arbitration proceeding is confidential and may be made public only with the written consent of both parties.
