DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

If a dispute arises we strongly encourage you to first contact our Customer Service Department before starting arbitration or filing a claim in small claims court. We value our relationships with our customers and will try to resolve your claims informally and quickly. If your dispute is not resolved by Customer Service, before beginning arbitration, you must first send written notice describing the claim to the Office of the General Counsel at the following address:

The Guestology Group, Inc.

ATTN: Website Terms and Privacy Policy

327 S. Latigo Canyon Road Malibu, California 90265

818-575-4400‍

‍

If the claim has not been resolved within 60 days of receipt of the notice you may then commence an arbitration proceeding. The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’s rules and forms are available at www.adr.org or by calling 877-495-4185.

‍

Thereafter, any unresolved dispute or claim relating in any way to the Website or Services including without limitation claims relating to the breach of the Terms of Use and/or Privacy Policy (“Dispute”), will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual basis. You and The Guestology Group, Inc. each reserve respectively the right to seek a preliminary injunction or temporary restraining order from a federal or state court in Ventura County, California and, after such request for relief has been heard by such court, the remainder of the Dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration as set forth herein.

‍

The arbitration shall be governed by the California Arbitration Act (“CAA”) (California Code Civ. Proc., §1280 et seq.) in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of America Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in effect at the time the arbitration commences. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or The Guestology Group, Inc. may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions (subject to the arbitrator’s discretion to require an in-person hearing if the circumstances warrant); otherwise, the arbitration shall take place in Ventura County, California. The arbitration shall be governed by California law. All of the fees and costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the parties participating therein. Attendance at an in-person hearing may be made by telephone unless the arbitrator requires otherwise. Attorneys’ fees may be awarded to the prevailing party at the discretion of the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall neither have power to alter or amend this Agreement, nor power to award any relief inconsistent with the provisions herein or unavailable in a court of law, nor power to commit errors of law or legal reasoning. The arbitrator’s award shall, at a minimum, be a reasoned award. The arbitrator’s award may be appealed, and may be vacated or corrected on appeal, solely pursuant to the appellate arbitration rules of AAA in effect at the time the arbitration commences (“Appellate Rules”) and the arbitrator’s award shall not be considered final until after the time for filing the notice of appeal pursuant to the Appellate Rules has expired. Thereafter, the arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

‍

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and The Guestology Group, Inc. BOTH HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

‍

CLASS ACTION WAIVER

ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN AN PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. You and The Guestology Group, Inc. further agree that they shall not participate in any class action (existing or future) brought by any third party arising under this agreement or in connection with the Sites. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then such class action is not subject to arbitration and must be litigated in state or federal court in Ventura County in the state of California and the entirety of the foregoing arbitration provision shall be null and void except for the waiver of any right to a jury trial as set forth above; even in that case, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in effect.
