This clause 23 will be construed under and be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding any other choice of law set out in these Terms and Conditions.

 

23.1. By agreeing to these Terms, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you and The Rad Team agree that any and all past, present and future disputes, claims or causes of action arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Platform, the formation of these Terms or any other dispute between you and The Rad Team or any of The Rad Team's affiliates, licensors, distributors, suppliers or agents (including any application store or platform from which the Platform is accessed or downloaded), and whether arising prior to or after your agreement to this clause, (collectively, "Dispute(s)") will be governed by the procedure outlined below. You and The Rad Team further agree that any arbitration pursuant to this clause shall not proceed as a class, group or representative action.

 

Complaint Resolution

 

23.2. We want to address any concerns you may have without the need for a formal legal dispute.

 

23.3. Before filing a claim against The Rad Team, you agree to try to resolve any complaint in accordance with clause 19. If your complaint is not resolved after exhausting the internal complaints process outlined in clause 19, you may initiate Dispute resolution as set out in this clause 23.

Arbitration

 

23.5. We Both Agree to Arbitrate. By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, both you and The Rad Team agree to resolve any Disputes – including any Dispute concerning the enforceability, validity, scope or severability of this agreement to arbitrate – through final and binding arbitration.

 

23.6. Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate. You may decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting support@radpoker.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms and Conditions. Your email must include your first and last name and a statement that you decline this arbitration clause.

Whether to agree to arbitration is an important decision. It is your decision to make and you ARE NOT REQUIRED TO rely solely on the information provided in these Terms and Conditions. You should take reasonable steps to conduct further research and, if you wish, to consult with counsel of your choice.

 

Arbitration Procedures and Fees

 

23.7. You and The Rad Team agree that:

 

  1. the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes, or successor rules, which are in effect at the time arbitration is sought (“AAA Rules”). Those rules are available at www.adr.org;


 

  1. arbitration will proceed on an individual basis;

 

  1. arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules;

 

  1. the AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees;

 

  1. except as otherwise may be required by the AAA Rules, the arbitration will be held in New York, New York, or, at your election, conducted via telephone or other remote electronic means;

 

  1. the arbitrator shall be authorized to award any remedies, including injunctive relief, that would be available to you in an individual lawsuit and that are not waivable under applicable law. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this clause 23.7(f), if a party seeks injunctive relief that would significantly impact other The Rad Team users as reasonably determined by either party, the parties agree that such arbitration will proceed on an individual basis but will be handled by a panel of three (3) arbitrators. Each party shall select one arbitrator, and the two party-selected arbitrators shall select the third, who shall serve as chair of the arbitral panel. That chairperson shall be a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and with experience arbitrating or mediating disputes. In the event of disagreement as to whether the threshold for a three-arbitrator panel has been met, the sole arbitrator appointed in accordance with this clause shall make that determination. If the arbitrator determines a three-person panel is appropriate, the arbitrator may – if selected by either party or as the chair by the two party-selected arbitrators – participate in the arbitral panel; and

 

  1. except as and to the extent otherwise may be required by law, the arbitration proceeding and any award shall be confidential.

 

23.8. If you are a resident of Canada, this clause 23 fully applies to you in all respects, except that AAA Rules will be construed to mean the Canadian Dispute Resolution Procedures and Canadian Expedited Procedures of the International Centre for Dispute Resolution Canada, or successor rules, which are in effect at the time arbitration is sought. Those rules are available at www.adr.org.)

 

Arbitration to Proceed Individually

 

23.9. You and The Rad Team agree that the arbitration of any Dispute shall proceed on an individual basis and neither you nor The Rad Team may bring a claim as a part of a Collective Arbitration.

 

23.10. Without limiting the generality of clause 23.9, and as an example only, a claim to resolve a Dispute against The Rad Team will be deemed a Collective Arbitration if:

 

  1. two (2) or more similar claims for arbitration are filed concurrently by or on behalf of one or more claimants; and

 

  1. counsel for the claimants are the same, share fees or coordinate in any way across the arbitrations.

 

23.11. For the purposes of clause 23.10, the term “concurrently” means that both arbitrations are pending (filed but not resolved) at the same time.

 

Waiver of Class Action and Collective Arbitration

 

23.12. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER YOU NOR The Rad Team SHALL BE ENTITLED TO CONSOLIDATE, JOIN OR COORDINATE DISPUTES BY OR AGAINST OTHER INDIVIDUALS OR ENTITIES, OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY COLLECTIVE ARBITRATION (AS DEFINED ABOVE) OR ARBITRATE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, INCLUDING AS A REPRESENTATIVE MEMBER OF A CLASS OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY OR OTHERWISE SEEK TO RECOVER FOR LOSSES INCURRED BY A THIRD PARTY. IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE (AS DEFINED ABOVE), ANY AND ALL SUCH RIGHTS ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVED. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN THE EVENT ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THIS CLAUSE 23.12 IS FOUND TO BE INVALID OR LESS THAN FULLY ENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF CLAUSE 23 (DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS) MAY BE DEEMED VOID AND AS HAVING NO EFFECT UPON EITHER PARTY'S ELECTION.
