ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND DISCOVERY PROCEDURES AND APPELLATE RIGHTS ARE MORE LIMITED THAN IN COURT.
All notices that this agreement requires to be provided to ASNA should be sent to: ASNA Corporate Headquarters 3500 W Devon Ave, Lincolnwood, IL 60712.
Disputes that Must be Arbitrated
This agreement to arbitrate applies to any Dispute between you and ASNA. “Dispute” means any dispute, claim, or controversy (excluding those exceptions listed below) between you and ASNA, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, that either of us seeks legal recourse for and that arises out of or in any way relates to your use or attempted use of the Activities, or the ASNA website or application(whether arising out of or relating to past, present, or future acts or omissions).
Continuation in Effect
The dispute resolution process set forth in these Terms of Use survives the termination of any other agreement between you and us.
Future Terms Changes
Although we may revise these dispute resolution terms in our discretion, we do not have the right to alter this agreement or the arbitration rules specified herein with respect to any Dispute once that Dispute has arisen, if such change would make arbitration procedures materially less favorable to the claimant. Whether the prior or amended procedures apply to a Dispute (i.e.,whether the amended procedures are materially less favorable to the claimant than those provided for at the time the Dispute arose) is a matter to be decided by the arbitration provider as an administrative matter or, in the case of Coordinated Filings, by a process arbitrator.
Class Action Waiver
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, for any case not subject to the requirement to arbitrate (except to the limited extent discussed above for Coordinated Cases), you and we will only bring disputes, claims, or controversies between us in an individual capacity and shall not seek to bring, join, or participate in any class or representative action, collective or class-wide arbitration, or any other action where another individual or entity acts in a representative capacity (like private attorney general actions); or consolidate or combine individual proceedings or permit another to do so without the express consent of all parties to these Terms. For avoidance of doubt, to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, this class action waiver applies even if a court finds that a Dispute is not subject to mandatory arbitration.
Severability
If all or any provision of this agreement is found invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then you and we agree that the provision will be severed, and the rest of these terms shall remain in effect and be construed as if any severed provision had not been included. The sole exception is that if the prohibition on class arbitrations is found invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, you and we agree that this entire agreement to arbitrate will be void and unenforceable and any dispute will be resolved in court subject to the venue and choice of law clauses specified herein.
Communications
By providing us your telephone number, including your mobile telephone number, you authorize ASNA to contact you at the number you provided regarding your participation in Activities, including but not limited to cancellations, waitlist changes, and updates to your billing information. You agree we may contact you by telephone call or text message, using an automatic telephone dialing system and/or a prerecorded message. You agree that we may monitor or record any conversation or other communication with you.
No Assignment
These Terms of Use are not assignable, transferable, or sub-licensable by you except with the prior written consent of a duly authorized ASNA employee.
Waiver
Our failure at anytime to require performance of any provision of these Terms of Use or to exercise any right provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of such provision or such right. All waivers must be in writing. Unless the written waiver contains an express statement to the contrary, no waiver by ASNA or any breach of any provision of these Terms of Use or of any right provided for herein will be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision, a waiver of the provision itself, or a waiver of any right under these Terms of Use.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, such provision will be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent allowed by law and the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use will remain in full force and effect.
Governing Law
These Terms of Use will be governed by and construed in accordance with the local laws of theState of Illinois without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.
Entire Agreement
These Terms of Use(together with the ASNA Student Terms & Conditions, ASNA Privacy Policy, and ASNA Messaging Terms & Conditions) contain the entire understanding and agreement between you and ASNA with respect to the Services and supersede all previous communications, negotiations, and agreements, whether oral, written, or electronic, between you and ASNA with respect to the Services and your use of this Site.
