Dispute Resolution. Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc., and affects your rights.  It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement.  Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English.  This  Arbitration Agreement applies to you and Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc., and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest,  successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.

Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution

Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and the requested relief.  A Notice to the  Company should be sent to 1778 Samurai Point Q-1, Lutz, FL 33558. After the Notice is received, you and Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally.  If you and  Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty  (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding.  The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award to which either party is entitled.

Arbitration Rules

Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association, an established alternative dispute resolution provider that offers arbitration as outlined in this section.  If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR  Provider.  The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration except to the extent such rules conflict with the  Terms.  The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration are available online at adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.   The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator.  Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief.  For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules.  Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise.  If you reside outside of the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time, and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.  If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last settlement offer that Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. made to you before the initiation of arbitration, Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500.00.  Each party shall bear its costs and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.

Additional Rules for Non-Appearance-Based Arbitration

If non-appearance-based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online, and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration.  The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

Time Limits

If you or Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations and any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim.

Authority of Arbitrator. 

If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities of you and Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc., and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms.  The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.  The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a  judge in a court of law would have.  The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc..

Waiver of Jury Trial

THE  PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO  COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this  Arbitration Agreement.  Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less expensive than rules applicable in a  court and are subject to very limited review by a court.  In the event, that any litigation should arise between you and Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A  JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.

Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions

All claims and disputes within the scope of this arbitration agreement must be arbitrated or litigated on an individual basis and not on a class basis, and claims of more than one customer or user cannot be arbitrated or litigated jointly or consolidated with those of any other customer or user.

Confidentiality

All aspects of the arbitration proceeding shall be strictly confidential.   The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law.  This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a  court of law any information necessary to enforce this Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.

Severability

If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction,  then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

Right to Waive

Any or all of the rights and limitations outlined in this Arbitration  Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted.  Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.

Survival of Agreement. 

This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc.

Small Claims Court

Nonetheless the foregoing, either you or Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc. may bring an individual action in small claims court.

Emergency Equitable Relief

Anyhow the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a  state or federal court to maintain the status quo pending arbitration.  A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a  waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration  Agreement.

Claims Not Subject to Arbitration

Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement.

In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Netherlands County,  California, for such purposes.

The  Site may be subject to U.S. export control laws and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries. You agree not to export, re-export, or transfer, directly or indirectly, any U.S.  technical data acquired from Paradise Lakes Condo Association, Inc., or any products utilizing such data, in violation of the United States export laws or regulations.
