Your violation of these Terms;
-
Your user Content or any material you provide to the Service;
-
Your use of the Service, including, but not limited to, your interactions with other users;
-
Your violation of the rights of any third party, including but not limited to intellectual property rights and privacy rights;

Your violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation;

Any other party's access and use of the Service with your unique username, password, or other appropriate security code;

We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of these claims.
11. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
11.1 Arbitration Agreement
You and the Company agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof or the use of the Service (collectively, "Disputes") will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.
11.2 Arbitration Rules and Forum
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section. The arbitration will be conducted in Las Vegas, Nevada, unless you and the Company agree otherwise. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and the Company submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary.
11.3 Arbitrator's Powers
The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to (a) determine the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this arbitration agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator will 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 will issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. 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 the Company.
11.4 Waiver of Jury Trial
YOU AND THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and the Company are instead electing that all Disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 11.1 above. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
11.5 Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions
ALL DISPUTES MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES' INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS THE COMPANY AGREES OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.
11.6 Attorneys' Fees and Costs
In any action, arbitration, or proceeding to enforce rights under these Terms, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs and attorneys' fees. If the Company prevails in any action, arbitration, or proceeding to enforce these Terms, you agree to reimburse the Company for all of its reasonable attorney fees, court costs, and all other expenses associated with enforcing these Terms, regardless of whether an action is actually filed.
11.7 Opt-Out Right
You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending a physically signed, written notice of your decision to opt out to legal@datesandhoney.com AND by mailing a copy to:

11.8 Exclusive Venue for Litigation
To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth above do not apply, or if you have opted out of arbitration, you and the Company agree that any litigation between us shall be filed exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada. You expressly consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes and waive any objection to such jurisdiction.

13. GENERAL PROVISIONS
13.1 Governing Law

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not render these Terms unenforceable or invalid as a whole, and such provision shall be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of such unenforceable or invalid provision within the limits of applicable law or applicable court decisions.
13.3 Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and the Company. No waiver of any term of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and our failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
13.4 Assignment
These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by the Company without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation of this provision shall be null and void.

13.8 Equitable Relief
You acknowledge that a breach of these Terms may cause irreparable harm to the Company and that damages may be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce these Terms or prevent an infringement of the Company's or any third party's intellectual property rights. You waive any requirement for the Company to post a bond in connection with a request for such relief.

You agree not to file or pursue any frivolous or unreasonable claims against the Company.
