The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision in this Section 12 with respect to applicable substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to these Terms shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16).

  1. Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate

Except where and to the extent prohibited by law, by using the E&S Ring Site, you and E&S Ring agree that, if there is any controversy, claim, action, or dispute arising out of or related to your use of the E&S Ring Site, or the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of these Terms or any part of them (“Dispute”), both parties shall first try in good faith to settle such Dispute by providing written notice to the other party describing the facts and circumstances of the Dispute and allowing the receiving party thirty (30) days in which to respond to or settle the Dispute. Notice shall be sent to:

  • Us, at E&S Ring Management Corporation, 11050 Santa Monica Blvd 2nd Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90025, or
  • You, at the address we have on file for you.

Both you and E&S Ring 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. IF ANY DISPUTE CANNOT BE RESOLVED BY THE ABOVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE, YOU AGREE THAT THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION FOR SUCH DISPUTE WILL BE DECIDED BY BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND YOU WAIVE, THE RIGHT FOR A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. Other rights that you and we would otherwise have in court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including discovery and appeal rights.

All such disputes shall be exclusively submitted to JAMS (www.jamsadr.com) for binding arbitration to be held in Los Angeles County, California, under its rules then in effect, before one arbitrator to be mutually agreed upon by both parties. The parties hereby agree that the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising under or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms, including any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable. If arbitration is deemed unenforceable, you agree to waive any right to a jury trial.

  1. Waiver

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third-party beneficiary rights on any other person or entity. If any provision of these Terms is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. You agree that communications and transactions between you and E&S Ring may be conducted electronically.
