15. Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL.
Agreement to Arbitrate
You and Astro Fresh Jerky mutually agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, any products purchased through the Site, or the rewards program (collectively, "Disputes") shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in a court of law. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted.
Arbitration Rules and Procedures
All Disputes shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. If the AAA is unavailable or unable to administer the arbitration, the parties shall mutually agree upon an alternative arbitration provider. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve all Disputes, including the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this arbitration agreement.
Individual Basis Only
All arbitration proceedings shall be conducted on an individual basis only. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of class, consolidated, or representative proceeding.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER
YOU AND ASTRO FRESH JERKY EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
Small Claims Exception
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court in Los Angeles County, California, for claims that qualify for small claims jurisdiction.
Location
Any arbitration hearing shall be held in Los Angeles County, California, or, at the election of either party, by telephone or videoconference, as mutually agreed upon by the parties.
Fees
If you are the consumer initiating arbitration, Astro Fresh Jerky will pay all AAA filing fees and arbitrator compensation to the extent required by the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. Each party shall bear its own attorneys' fees and costs unless the arbitrator determines that applicable law entitles the prevailing party to an award of reasonable attorneys' fees.
Opt-Out Right
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms by sending written notice to info@astrofreshjerky.com with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out." Your opt-out notice must include your full legal name, the email address associated with your account, and your mailing address. If you opt out of this arbitration agreement, you may pursue any Disputes in a court of competent jurisdiction, subject to the Governing Law and Venue provisions of these Terms. Opting out of arbitration will not affect any other provisions of these Terms.
Severability of Arbitration Provision
If the class action waiver set forth above is found to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the entirety of this arbitration agreement shall be null and void. If any other portion of this arbitration section is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
Survival
This arbitration agreement shall survive the termination of your account, the termination of these Terms, or your cessation of use of the Site.
16. Governing Law
These Terms and any Disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
17. Venue
For any claims or Disputes not subject to the arbitration agreement set forth in Section 15, you and Astro Fresh Jerky agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you waive any objection to venue or jurisdiction in such courts.
18. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
19. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, Refund Policy, Rewards Program Terms, and Accessibility Statement, constitute the entire agreement between you and Astro Fresh Jerky with respect to your use of the Site and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, proposals, and agreements, whether oral or written, between you and Astro Fresh Jerky regarding the subject matter hereof.
20. Waiver
The failure of Astro Fresh Jerky to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by Astro Fresh Jerky.
21. Assignment
Astro Fresh Jerky may assign, transfer, or delegate its rights and obligations under these Terms without your consent, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.
