20. Arbitration

Please read the following arbitration agreement in this Section 20 (Arbitration Agreement) carefully.  It requires you to arbitrate disputes with OET USA or CBLA and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.

21.1 Applicability of Arbitration Agreement

You agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of our Website, to any services or products provided by OET (including, the OET Services and OET Centre Content) or other content or materials distributed through our Website, or to any aspect of your relationship with OET USA or CBLA, (each, a Dispute) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except for the exceptions expressly stated in the Arbitration Agreement.

The following Disputes are not subject to this Arbitration Agreement: (1) Disputes that qualify for small claims court, so long as the Dispute remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, your infringement of a third party’s or our intellectual property rights, or unauthorized use of our Website; and (3) you or OET USA or CBLA may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents).

If you agree to these terms, and therefore arbitration with OET USA or CBLA, you are agreeing in advance that you will not participate in or seek to recover monetary or other relief in any lawsuit filed against OET USA or CBLA alleging class, collective, and/or representative claims on your behalf, unless otherwise permitted by law.  Instead, by agreeing to arbitration, you may bring your claims against OET USA or CBLA in an individual arbitration proceeding.  If successful on such claims, you could be awarded money or other relief permitted by applicable law by an arbitrator.  You acknowledge that you have been advised that you may consult with an attorney in deciding whether to accept terms and conditions, including this arbitration agreement.

20.2 Arbitration Rules and Forum

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to:

 

OET on Computer at a Venue                        OET on Paper at a Venue

OET USA, LLC                                                            The OET Centre

1209 Orange Street                                                    PO Box 16136

County of New Castle                                                Collins St West

Wilmington                                                                 Victoria 8007

Delaware 19801                                                          Australia

United States of America

 

The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider, or another alternative resolution provider based on the written agreement of the parties.  Disputes involving claims and counterclaims under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other claims shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/.  JAMS’s rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267.  If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum.  If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay the filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees of JAMS, or another alternative dispute resolution provider, and you cannot obtain a waiver from JAMS, OET USA or CBLA will pay them for you.  In addition, OET USA or CBLA will reimburse all such filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.  Likewise, OET USA or CBLA  will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous and OET USA or CBLA would otherwise be entitled to an award of such fees and costs had the matter been heard in court. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or online videoconferencing service, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

20.3 Authority of Arbitrator

The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and OET USA or CBLA. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties unless all parties (including OET USA or CBLA) consent in writing.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, and the Terms and Conditions (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall 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 to the same extent that a judge in a court of law would have.  The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.

20.4 Waiver of Bench or Jury Trial

You and OET USA or CBLA 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 OET USA or CBLA are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 20.1 above.  An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow this Arbitration Agreement 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.

20.5 Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions

All claims and disputes within the scope of this arbitration agreement must be arbitrated on an individual basis and not on a class basis, only individual relief is available, and claims of more than one user cannot be arbitrated or consolidated with those of any other user.

20.6 Severability

If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

20.7 Survival of Arbitration

This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with OET USA and CBLA.

20.8 Modification

Notwithstanding any provision in the Terms and Conditions to the contrary, you agree that if OET USA or CBLA makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, it will not apply to any individual claim(s) for which you have demanded arbitration or then pending in arbitration.

21. Severance of Clauses

If any clause of the Terms and Conditions is held to be invalid, void, unlawful or unenforceable for any reason, that clause will be severed and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remainder of the Terms and Conditions.

22. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

The Terms and Conditions and any actions related thereto shall be governed by the laws of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms and Conditions.
