- Dispute Resolutions by Binding Arbitration
ⓘ This section only applies if you live outside of Quebec, Russia, Switzerland, Brazil, Mexico, the member states of the EEA, United Kingdom and the Republic of Korea.
If you have a dispute, you agree to send details in writing to CSFL, and then arbitrate. You agree that any claim you bring against CSFL is in your individual ability, and not as a class member, class representative, or as part of a class, collective or representative action.
THIS SECTION APPLIES TO ALL CONSUMERS AND PEOPLE WHO ACCEPTED THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IT EXCLUDES RESIDENTS OF QUEBEC, RUSSIA, SWITZERLAND, BRAZIL, MEXICO, THE MEMBER STATES OF THE EEA, UNITED KINGDOM, AND THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA. BY ACCEPTING THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND CSFL EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND AGREE TO RESOLVE YOUR DISPUTES IN MANDATORY, FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU ALSO AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
This Section offers a streamlined way to resolve disputes between us if they arise. You and CSFL agree that good-faith informal efforts to resolve disputes often can result in a prompt, low-cost, and mutually beneficial outcome. Log into the CSFL customer support interface with your account to quickly resolve most concerns. If CSFL cannot resolve the issue, both parties agree to follow the dispute resolution procedure outlined in this section.
This Section is an agreement between you and CSFL, and applies to our respective agents, employees, subsidiaries, predecessors, successors, beneficiaries, and assigns. This agreement to arbitrate shows a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section, and any arbitration conducted under this Section. This Section shall be interpreted broadly and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
- Claims Covered by Arbitration
All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any CSFL Service and its marketing, or the relationship between you and CSFL, including the validity, enforceability, and scope of this Section (“Disputes”), shall be determined exclusively by binding arbitration. This includes claims that gained before you entered into this Agreement. The only Disputes not covered within this Section are claims (i) regarding the infringement, protection or validity of your, CSFL’s or CSFL’s licensors’ trade secrets, copyright, trademark or patent rights; (ii) if you reside in Australia, to enforce a statutory consumer right under Australian consumer law; (iii) brought in small claims court; and (iv) any and all disputes arising out of or relating to the Class Action Waiver, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or part of the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, illegal, void, or voidable.
To the extent the parties have related arbitrable and non-arbitrable disputes, the arbitrable disputes shall continue first in arbitration and the non-arbitrable disputes shall be stayed, and any applicable statutes of limitations tolled, pending completion of the arbitration.
- Informal Negotiations
You and CSFL shall first try to resolve any Dispute informally before starting arbitration. The informal negotiations begin upon receipt of written notice from one party to the other (“Notice of Dispute”). You must mail an individualized Notice of Dispute to: CSFL P.O. Box 7988 Wilmington De. 19803 ATTENTION: Legal Department. The Notice of Dispute must include: (a) your name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address associated with your CSFL Account (or your CSFL username); (b) a description of the nature and basis of your dispute (including the game(s) at issue); (c) the amount you are seeking from CSFL; and (d) your personal signature. If CSFL has a dispute with you, CSFL will send a Notice of Dispute with the same information to the email address associated with your account. You and CSFL must take part in informal negotiations for at least 60 days after receiving the Notice of Dispute unless the parties mutually agree to an extension. The party sending the Notice of Dispute may not file any demand for arbitration before the 60-day period (or any mutually agreed upon extended period).
The arbitrator shall dismiss any arbitration filed without fully and completely following these informal dispute resolution procedures. If arbitration is dismissed because a party willfully does not follow these informal dispute resolution procedures, the arbitrator may order the non-compliant party to pay any arbitration filing fees and costs incurred by the other party. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process described in this paragraph.
- Binding Arbitration
If you and CSFL cannot resolve a Dispute informally, you or CSFL may choose to have the Dispute finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. A party starting arbitration shall provide with its arbitration demand all the information needed in the Notice of Dispute, as well as a certificate that the party followed the informal dispute resolution procedures. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Consumer Rules”) and, if applicable, its Mass Supplementary Arbitration Rules (“AAA Mass Arbitration Rules”), which are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879, with the following modifications:
1. Arbitration fees and costs shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules or AAA Mass Arbitration Rules (if applicable) unless the state conveys this arbitration agreement.
2. If the Dispute does not exceed $25,000, the arbitration will be conducted solely based on written submissions, unless the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary for any reason, including but not limited to because a hearing is necessary to afford a party a full and fair opportunity to present its claims or defenses.
3. The parties may bring any dispositive motion or motions during the proceedings.
4. The arbitrator shall decide in writing, which will include the findings and conclusions on which the decision is based. The arbitrator has the authority to issue any relief allowed by applicable law, but the arbitrator shall have no authority to issue any relief on any basis other than an individual basis. The arbitrator may award declaratory or 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.
The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. You and CSFL may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay continuing pending arbitration, or to confirm, change, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
Class Action Waiver
You and CSFL agree that all Disputes between the parties shall be resolved only in individual arbitration. The parties expressly waive the right to have any Dispute brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated as a class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, or representative action, and neither an arbitrator nor an arbitration provider shall have any authority to hear, arbitrate, or administer any class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, or representative action, or to award relief to anyone but the individual in arbitration. The parties also expressly waive the right to seek, recover, or obtain any non-individual relief. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, this Class Action Waiver does not prevent you or CSFL from taking part in a class-wide, collective, or representative settlement of claims. If governing law (after taking FAA preemption into account) does not allow the parties to waive claims for public injunctive relief, any claim for public injunctive relief must be heard by a court, not an arbitrator, but the parties’ non-arbitrable disputes shall be stayed pending arbitration, as stated in paragraph A.
Grouped Arbitrations
To the extent allowed by applicable law and despite any other provision of this Agreement, to increase efficiency of resolution, in the event fifty or more similar arbitration demands are filed within a 30-day period:
(a) the parties shall cooperate to organize the arbitration demands into randomized groups of no more than fifty demands (plus, to the extent there are fewer than fifty arbitration demands staying, a final group consisting of the remaining demands).
(b) AAA shall assess one set of filing and administrative fees per group and shall assign one arbitrator per group, subject to any applicable disclosure and disqualification procedures available under applicable law…
(c) AAA shall set one initial conference per group.
(d) regardless of the grouping described above, the arbitrator shall resolve all arbitrations within a group on an individual basis.
(e) the first group of fifty arbitrations shall continue an individual basis, while the remaining cases are stayed and applicable statutes of limitations for those cases are tolled…
(f) the parties shall use their best efforts to complete the first fifty individual arbitrations within 120 days after the first conference and shall engage in good-faith mediation following resolution of the first fifty individual arbitrations…
(g) if mediation is unsuccessful, the remaining cases shall continue an individual basis in groups of fifty cases (plus, to the extent there are fewer than fifty arbitration demands staying, a final group consisting of the remaining demands); and
(h) no final award from an arbitrator in any one arbitration shall have preclusive effect in any other arbitration…
The parties agree to cooperate in good faith to implement such a grouped approach to administration of the arbitration demands. If any similar arbitration demands were originally processed as individual arbitration demands before this grouping procedure was started, further proceedings, including the assessment of further arbitration filing or administration fees to either party shall be governed by the procedures in this paragraph E.
