ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Any dispute relating in any way to the Terms and Conditions or use of any product or service from PWI, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (collectively, the "AAA Rules"), as modified by these Terms and Conditions. The arbitration shall be conducted in Kane County, Illinois, or at another mutually agreed location .
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law and the laws of the state of Illinois, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, shall govern any dispute of any sort that might arise. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, selected in accordance with the AAA Rules. The arbitrator shall have the power to award any relief that a court could award including injunctive and declaratory relief and statutory damages. The arbitrator must follow these Terms and Conditions as a court would.
To initiate arbitration, you must send a letter to our registered agent, Wagenmaker & Oberly, LLC, requesting arbitration and describing your claim. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules.
The arbitration shall be conducted on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated, or representative action. You and PWI waive any right to a jury trial and agree that any arbitration will be solely between you and PWI, except as otherwise provided herein.
In the event that any provision of this arbitration section is found unenforceable or invalid, the unenforceable or invalid provision shall be severed and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced (but in no case shall there be a class arbitration). Any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class or representative action.
