You and AW agree that any claims relating to these Terms or to your relationship with AW as a user of Sites or Services (whether based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentations, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of these Terms) shall be brought against the other party in an arbitration or an individual basis only and not a plaintiff or class member in a purported class or representative action.
YOU AND AW FURTHER AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT FOR SUCH CLAIMS TO BE BROUGHT, HEARD, OR ARBITRATED AS A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, TO THE EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW. Combining or consolidating individual arbitrations into a single arbitration is not permitted without the consent of all parties, including AW. YOU MUST FILE ANY CLAIM OR SUIT RELATED TO OUR SITE OR SERVICES WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER IT ARISES. AFTER THIS PERIOD, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT TO ANY REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM NOT ASSERTED WITHIN THAT TIME PERIOD.
MISCELLANEOUS
In the event AW is unable to perform its obligation because of acts of God, strikes, equipment or transmission failure or damage reasonably beyond its control, or other causes reasonably beyond its control, AW shall not be liable for damages to the other party for any damages resulting from such failure to perform or otherwise from such causes. AW’s failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms shall be deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from the Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
AW may assign its rights and duties under this Agreement to any party at any time without notice to you. Your rights and duties under these Terms are not assignable by you without written consent of AW. These Terms do not provide any third party with a remedy, claim, or right of reimbursement. The Site, Services and these Terms are also available and reproduce in many different languages. In the event of any discrepancy between the languages and English versions of the Site, Services and these Terms, the English version will prevail.
