This arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law (collectively the "FAA"), and shall be conducted under the applicable procedures and rules of the arbitration administrator that are in effect on the date the arbitration is filed unless this arbitration provision is inconsistent with those procedures and rules, in which case this Agreement will prevail. These procedures and rules may limit the amount of discovery available to you or us. The arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and will honor claims of privilege recognized at law. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
(3) No class claims, including class actions, class arbitrations, other representative actions, or joinder or consolidation of any Claim with a Claim of any other person or entity shall be allowable in arbitration, without the written consent of both you and us ("Class Action Waiver"). This arbitration agreement survives the termination of this Agreement or the Service relationship; provided, however, if any portion of this "Arbitration; Dispute Resolution" section cannot be enforced, that portion will be severed, and the rest of the "Arbitration; Dispute Resolution" section will continue to apply, provided that the entire "Arbitration; Dispute Resolution" section shall be null and void if the Class Action Waiver is held to be invalid or unenforceable with respect to any class or representative Claim, subject to any right to appeal such holding.?
(4) IF ARBITRATION IS CHOSEN BY YOU OR US WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM, NEITHER YOU NOR WE WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE THAT CLAIM THROUGH A COURT.
