21. ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT & CLASS ACTION WAIVER – IMPORTANT – PLEASE REVIEW AS THIS MAY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. APPLICABLE TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

 

1. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. YOU AND OUTSIDE LIVIN EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE BOOKING CONDITIONS OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION, ENFORCEMENT, INTERPRETATION OR VALIDITY THEREOF, OR YOUR ACCESS TO OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY ASPECT OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OUTSIDE LIVIN (COLLECTIVELY, “DISPUTES”) WILL BE RESOLVED SOLELY BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND NOT IN A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR CONSOLIDATED ACTION OR PROCEEDING. YOU AND OUTSIDE LIVIN AGREE THAT THE U.S. FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (OR EQUIVALENT LAWS IN THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE OUTSIDE LIVIN ENTITY THAT YOU HAVE CONTRACTED WITH IS INCORPORATED) GOVERNS THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THESE BOOKING CONDITIONS AND THAT YOU AND OUTSIDE LIVIN ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THESE BOOKING CONDITIONS.THIS ARBITRATION WAIVER SHALL APPLY, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO ALL CLAIMS THAT AROSE IN THESE BOOKING CONDITIONSOR ANY PRIOR TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH BY OUTSIDE LIVIN RELATED TO THE SERVICES.

 

NOW OR IN THE FUTURE, THERE MAY BE LAWSUITS AGAINST OUTSIDE LIVIN ALLEGING CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS. SUCH CLAIMS, IF SUCCESSFUL, COULD RESULT IN SOME MONETARY RECOVERY TO YOU. THE EXISTENCE OF SUCH CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUITS DOES NOT MEAN THAT SUCH LAWSUITS WILL ULTIMATELY SUCCEED. BUT IF YOU AGREE TO ARBITRATION WITH OUTSIDE LIVIN, YOU ARE AGREEING IN ADVANCE THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN OR SEEK TO RECOVERY MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF UNDER SUCH CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUITS. INSTEAD, BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIMS AGAINST OUTSIDE LIVIN IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF SUCCESSFUL ON SUCH CLAIMS, YOU COULD BE AWARDED MONEY OR OTHER RELIEF BY AN ARBITRATOR.

 

2. Exceptions. As limited exceptions to the above-described arbitration requirement:

1. you may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if the Dispute qualifies, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and
2. we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our respective intellectual property rights.

 

3. Initial Dispute Resolution and Notification. You agree that before initiating any Dispute or arbitration proceeding, we will attempt to negotiate an informal resolution of any Dispute with Outside Livin. To begin this process, before initiating any arbitration proceeding, you must send a Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) by certified mail to the attention of Outside Livin Legal Department at 5395 W. 25th Avenue, Denver, CO 80214. In the Notice, you must describe the nature and basis of the Dispute and the relief you are seeking. If we are unable to resolve the Dispute within forty-five (45) days after Outside Livin’s receipt of the Notice, then you or Outside Livin may initiate arbitration proceedings as set out below.

 

4. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except those issues relating to the scope, application, and enforceability of this arbitration provision are for the court to decide.  The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. The laws of the United States, State of Colorado, without regard to any principles of conflict of laws, applies to any arbitration under this section. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any in-person hearings for the arbitration shall take place in Denver, Colorado.  The arbitrator’s ruling is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 18 shall survive any termination of these Booking Conditions, including any termination of your relationship with us.

 

5. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the applicable rules. If you assert a claim against Outside Livin, you will be responsible for paying any consumer filing fee. Outside Livin will pay for all other filing, administration and arbitrator fees and expenses. If your Dispute is for less than U.S. $10,000 (including attorneys’ fees and costs) and the arbitrator, upon final disposition of the case, finds your Dispute was not frivolous, Outside Livin will reimburse your initial filing fee. If we prevail in arbitration, we will pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration, you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.

 

6. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND OUTSIDE LIVIN AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding for any purpose.

 

7. Jury Trial Waiver. YOU AND OUTSIDE LIVIN EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND RECEIVE A JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL. You and Outside Livin are instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Booking Conditions as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. In any litigation between you and Outside Livin over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, you and Outside Livin waive all rights to a jury trial and elect instead to have a judge resolve the dispute.

 

8. Limited Time to File Claims. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE BOOKING CONDITIONS OR THE SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.  REMEDIES FOR ANY CLAIM BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES OR THESE BOOKING CONDITIONS SHALL BE LIMITED TO MONETARY DAMAGES, AND YOU HEREBY AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO ANY INJUNCTIVE OR EQUITABLE RELIEF.  

 

22. Contracting Entities, Governing Law and Jurisdiction.
