23. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

23.1 Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Company in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, and except as described in Section 23.2 and 23.3, you and Company agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

23.2 Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 23.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court (although all disputes for amounts for $8,000.00 or less must be submitted first to non-binding mediation in Miami-Dade County, Florida (JAMS Rules); (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

23.3 Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 23 within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending a letter to GOKAIDO YT LLC at 667 Madison Avenue, Attn 5th Floor, NY NY 10065, that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Platform, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Company receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 23 will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 24.3 The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.

23.4 Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Company will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Company. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

23.5 Mandatory Informal Pre-Suit Resolution Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). Company’s address for Notice is: GOKAIDO YT LLC at667 Madison Avenue, Attn 5th Floor, NY NY 10065. The Notice must include: (a) your full name; (b) your address; (c) your telephone numbers; (d) your email address; (e) a description of the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly for a period of at least sixty (60) days from the date of the Notice in an effort to resolve the dispute without the need for a formal proceeding. If Company requests a telephone conference with You in an effort to resolve the dispute, you agree to personally participate, with your legal representative if you have legal representation. Compliance with this Mandatory Informal Pre-Suit Resolution Process is a condition precedent to moving forward with any arbitration proceedings or any other formal proceedings. The parties acknowledge and agree that any action commenced in court or arbitration prior to exhausting the Notice process shall be defective and subject to dismissal at the cost of the party found to have prematurely brought a formal proceeding outside this Mandatory Informal Pre-Suit Resolution Process. The statute of limitation and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in this process. A court shall have the authority to enjoin the filing of any lawsuit concerning a Claim without first providing a Notice or other participating good faith Mandatory Informal Pre-Suit Resolution Process.

23.6 Informal Pre-Suit Resolution Process. If the parties do not reach an agreement  within sixty (60) days after the Notice is received, you or Company may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing.

23.7

23.8 Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Company will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than Ten ($10,000.00) Dollars, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Miami, Florida but if the claim is for Ten ($10,000.00) Dollars or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Company for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

23.9 No Class Actions. YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Company agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

23.10 Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Company makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Company’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to Company’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with Company will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

23.11 Enforceability. If Section 23.9 or the entirety of this Section 23 is found to be unenforceable, or if Company receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section 23 will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 24.3 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
