This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to conflict of law principles.

    1. 13.1. You agree that these Terms of Service affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions.
    2. 13.2. In the event of a dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or in connection with your access to, and/or use of the Service, and/or the provision of content, services, and/or technology on or through the Service, Fowl Play or you must give the other party notice of the dispute, claim, or controversy.  The notice will include a brief written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving the notice, the facts giving rise to the dispute, claim, or controversy and the relief requested.

    3. 13.3. The parties will attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy through informal negotiation within thirty (30) days from the date that any notice of dispute, claim, or controversy is sent. The parties shall use reasonable, good faith, efforts to settle any dispute, claim, or controversy through consultation and good faith negotiations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the notice and 30 day negotiation period required by this paragraph shall not apply, however, to disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Service.
    4. 13.4. If the dispute is unresolved through informal discussions within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice, it shall be resolved by binding arbitration to be held in New York, New York.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Service shall not be subject to arbitration.  For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in New York, New York, and the parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court in New York, New York to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
    5. 13.5. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms of Service, and administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and fee information are available at www.adr.org.
    6. 13.6. The party requesting binding arbitration shall be responsible for any arbitration filing fees.  The parties are responsible for their own costs incurred in the arbitration. The decision of the arbitrator will be in writing and binding and conclusive on the parties, and judgment to enforce the decision may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that dispositive motions, including without limitation, motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment will be allowed in the arbitration. The arbitrator must follow these Terms of Service and can award the same damages and relief as a court, including injunctive or other equitable relief and attorney’s fees. The parties understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, Fowl Play and you would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. The parties further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
    7. 13.7. If any clause within these arbitration provisions is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that specific clause will be severed from these arbitration provisions, and the remainder of the arbitration provisions will be given full force and effect. In the event some or all of these arbitration provisions are determined to be unenforceable for any reason, or if a claim, dispute or controversy is brought that is found by a court to be excluded from the scope of these arbitration provisions, the parties agree to waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any trial by jury.

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced. You agree this Agreement may be automatically assigned by us, in our sole discretion, to a third party. Section headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement between us with respect to the subject matter hereof. The provisions of this Agreement will survive termination or expiration to the extent necessary to carry out the intentions of the parties. No waiver of any term of this Agreement 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 this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

We may change this Agreement. If we make any changes, we will notify you by revising the “Effective Starting” date at the top of this Agreement and, in some cases, where appropriate we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to the login screen or sending you an email notification). We encourage you to review this Agreement whenever you use our Services. Your continued use of the Service after any changes to this Agreement will constitute your acceptance of such modification. If you disagree with any changes to this Agreement, you will need to stop using our Services.
