Terms of Use
Please review these terms carefully. By using this website, you are assenting to these terms.
IMPORTANT: THIS IS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT, AS FURTHER SET
FORTH BELOW, REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO
RESOLVE DISPUTES. THIS MEANS THAT YOU AND SVJ ARE EACH GIVING UP THE
RIGHT TO SUE EACH OTHER IN COURT OR IN CLASS ACTIONS OF ANY KIND. IN
ARBITRATION, THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY AND THERE IS LESS DISCOVERY AND
APPELLATE REVIEW THAN IN COURT.
Disputes & Arbitration; Applicable Law
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR
LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. Using or
accessing the SVJ website constitutes your acceptance of this Arbitration provision. Please
read it carefully as it provides that you and SVJ will waive any right to file a lawsuit in court or
participate in a class action for matters within the terms of the Arbitration provision.
EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES THAT QUALIFY FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT, ALL DISPUTES
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR ANY ASPECT OF THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND SVJ, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT,
STATUTE, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WILL BE
RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL
ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY, AND YOU AGREE THAT
SVJ AND YOU ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND TO HAVE A TRIAL
BY A JURY. YOU AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL
BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED AND YOU
ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. The
arbitration will be administered by Judicial Arbitration Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”)
pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures effective July 1, 2014 (the
“JAMS Rules”) and as modified by this agreement to arbitrate. The JAMS Rules, including
instructions for bringing arbitration, are available on the JAMS website at
http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration. The Minimum Standards are available at
http://www.jamsadr.com/consumer-arbitration.
The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by
personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate. The arbitrator has the sole power to decide the validity,
revocability or enforceability of these terms. Any in-person appearances will be held at a
location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to
travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such
determination should be made by JAMS or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision will follow
these terms and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary,
interim, or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of these terms,
but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the
arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in these terms will
preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies and, if the
law allows, they can seek relief against us for you.
These terms will be governed by and construed under the laws of the United States (including
federal arbitration law) and the State of Wisconsin, without regard to conflicts of law principles.
