NOTICES.

All notices and other communications permitted or required by the provisions of this Agreement may be given by electronic mail, conventional mail or, if by an LRN company, by posting such notice on this Website. Notice is deemed given upon receipt by you if sent by electronic mail or conventional mail, or immediately upon posting to this Website.

GOVERNING LAW.

These Terms of Use shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to its conflicts of law rules. The exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute not covered by the terms of the Arbitration provision set forth in this Agreement may be filed only in the state or federal courts located in New York County in the State of New York, United States.

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.

Except with respect to (1) claims that qualify for and are asserted in small claims court, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) any claim or dispute involving the ownership, validity or use of trademarks or service marks or other intellectual property, any dispute arising out of or related to the use or performance of this Website, these Terms of Use, the Materials, or the Agreement, seeking as relief money damages and/or attorneys’ fees or other damages (“Covered Claims”) will be submitted for arbitration to the American Arbitration Association (AAA). LRN shall have the right in a proper case to obtain temporary restraining orders, temporary or preliminary injunctive relief and/or declaratory relief (other than declarations with respect to the amount of money damages) from a court of competent jurisdiction.

The arbitration proceedings shall be heard by one independent arbitrator who shall be an attorney or retired judge. The arbitration shall be held in accordance with the then-existing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA. All matters within the scope of the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. 1, et seq.) will be governed by it and not by any state arbitration law. You and LRN waive any rights to maintain other available resolution processes for such disputes, such as a court action or administrative proceeding, to settle disputes. You and LRN waive any right to a jury trial for such disputes. The rules in arbitration are different from the rules that apply in court. There is no judge or jury, and review is limited, but an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief and must honor the same limitations stated in the Agreement, as a court would.

In reaching his or her decision, the arbitrator shall follow this Agreement, shall be bound to apply the applicable law and shall not rule inconsistently with the applicable law. The arbitrator may not (1) without the consent of all parties, combine more than one individual’s claim or claims into a single case, (2) participate in or facilitate notification to others of potential claims, or (3) arbitrate or preside over any form of a class, mass, collective, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator shall include in his or her award any relief he or she deems proper in terms of money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from the date due at the maximum rate allowed by law), and attorneys’ fees and costs. The award of the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

If a party violates this arbitration agreement by commencing an action asserting a Covered Claim in a court of law, then the court (and not an arbitrator) shall have the authority to resolve any disputes about the interpretation, formation, existence, enforceability, validity, and scope of these Terms of Use, including the Agreement, this arbitration agreement, and the Waiver of Class, Mass, Collective, and Representative Claims. However, if a party complies with this arbitration agreement and files for arbitration without filing a complaint in a court of law, then the arbitrator shall have the authority to resolve any disputes about the interpretation of these Terms of Use for purposes of discovery or the merits of the underlying claim, but shall have no authority to resolve any disputes about the formation, existence, enforceability, or validity of the Terms of Use, including the Agreement, this arbitration agreement, and the Waiver of Class, Mass, Collective, and Representative Claims.

CONFIDENTIALITY.

Other than as may be required by law, the entire arbitration proceedings (including, but not limited to, any rulings, decisions or orders of the arbitrator), shall remain confidential and not be disclosed to anyone other than the parties to this Agreement.

LIMITATIONS PERIOD.

Any and all Covered Claims shall be commenced within one (1) year from the occurrence of the facts giving rise to such claim or action, or such claim or action shall be barred. This Limitations Period section does not apply to residents any jurisdiction where local law prohibits it.

WAIVER OF CLASS, MASS, COLLECTIVE, AND REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS.

To the extent permitted by law, you agree that you will not file a class action against any LRN company, participate in a class action against any LRN company, file or seek a class, mass, collective, or representative arbitration against any LRN company, or participate in such an arbitration against any LRN company, for any Covered Claims. To the extent permitted by law, you agree that all such claims may only be brought in your individual capacity, and not on behalf of other individuals.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral and written agreements. No failure or delay on the part of LRN in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or enforcing the terms and conditions of this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof. If any part or provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, unenforceable or void, then the remaining portion shall remain in full force and effect. If the Waiver of Class, Mass, Collective, and Representative Claims is found to be unenforceable, then any claim brought on a class, mass, collective, or representative action basis must be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction as provided herein, and such court shall be the exclusive forum for such claims. Headings are for convenience only and not for use in interpretation of this Agreement.
