Agreement to Arbitrate: Subject to Section 19(d) below and all applicable laws, any dispute relating to the Website, to these Terms, to our Privacy Policy or Return Policy, to our advertising or solicitation practices, or to Products you purchase through the Website that is not resolved through good faith negotiation will be settled by final and binding arbitration pursuant to the consumer arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration will be conducted by one neutral arbitrator, in accordance with this Section 19 and the then current Consumer Arbitration Rules of the AAA at a location agreed to by the parties. The parties will appoint an arbitrator pursuant to the AAA’s procedure for appointment from AAA’s panel. Each party will pay its own expenses, and OBAYATY will pay the filing and any other administrative fees of the AAA and the arbitrator’s fees and expenses. This arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and will be governed and enforced under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1-16 (“FAA”). The arbitrator must apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and must honor claims of privilege recognized at law. Either party may seek a temporary injunction in any court of competent jurisdiction to the extent necessary to preserve the status quo during the pendency of final resolution of a dispute in accordance with this Section 19. Except as provided below in Section 19(c), if any portion of the arbitration agreement in this Section 19 is deemed invalid or unenforceable under the FAA, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of the arbitration agreement. An award may be confirmed and judgment entered by any court having competent jurisdiction. The decision and award of the arbitrator is not subject to review except as expressly authorized by applicable law. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief if permitted by law – but the injunctive relief awarded by the arbitrator may not extend beyond the dealings between us. Any question of the arbitrability of any dispute, including questions of the enforceability of this Section 19, the applicability of statutes of limitation or questions of issue preclusion, will be determined solely by the arbitrator. The parties, their representatives and participants and the arbitrator will hold the existence, disclosures, content and result of any arbitration proceeding in confidence for all purposes and may not use anything disclosed or stated in an arbitration for any purpose (including impeachment) other than to enforce a final settlement agreement or to obtain or enforce a judgment on an arbitration award or decision.
Opt Out: This arbitration provision means that your claims against obayaty will be resolved through arbitration rather than litigation in court. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement (section 19(a) only) for any future business with obayaty and doing so will not in any way prejudice or affect your dealings with OBAYATY. to exercise this opt out right, you must provide us written notice of your election to opt out no later than 30 days after effective date of the contract between us. the procedure spelled out herein is the only way to opt out of this arbitration agreement, and any attempts to opt out after the deadline set forth herein will be ineffective.
Class Action Waiver: Any arbitration proceeding under this section will take place on an individual basis. Class arbitrations and class or representative proceedings of any kind are not permitted and you expressly waive your ability to participate in a class or representative proceeding against obayaty or its affiliates. To the extent that you opt out of arbitration following the procedure set forth in the preceding paragraph, or if this arbitration agreement is found inapplicable to your dispute with obayaty, this class action waiver will continue to apply in litigation. You agrees that this class action waiver is an essential element of this agreement and that it may not be severed. in the event that this class action waiver is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the entire agreement to arbitrate in this section will be null and void.
Small Claims Court: Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may elect to pursue a breach of warranty claim in small-claims court rather than submit to binding arbitration, but only if you provide us with written notice of your desire to do so within 90 days of your purchase transaction. Any small-claims court proceeding initiated hereunder will be subject to the class action waiver in Section 19(c) above.
Jury Trial Waiver: If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, to the greatest extent permitted by law, you hereby waive any right to a jury trial.
20. Provisions Severability
If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such determination shall not invalidate any other provision of these Terms. Instead, the invalid terms and conditions shall be replaced with other terms in order to give effect to the commercial intentions of these Terms.

We reserve the right to terminate your access to the Website at our sole discretion at any time without prior notice. Such termination could occur if we suspect that you have breached the terms of these Terms.
