Dispute Resolution and Arbitration.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THROUGH THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BELOW, AS IT MANDATES THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND BATHING WILL BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN LITIGATION.

Arbitration Guidelines.

By entering into these Terms, you and Bathing agree that both you and Bathing are required to settle any disputes relating to (a) this Terms of Use Agreement, the existence, breach of contract, termination of Account, enforcement of Terms, interpretation or validity thereof, the Bathing Website, Services, your relationship with Bathing, payments made by you or (b) Users’ access and use of the Bathing Service on or before the date User agreed to these terms, on an individual basis in arbitration outside a court of law, as described by this Arbitration Agreement. This agreement precludes you from acting as a plaintiff or class member in any current or future case against Bathing. It will also preclude User from bringing any collective, consolidated or representative action against Bathing.

However, you and Bathing each retain the right to file an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND BATHING ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL FOR ALL CLAIMS, UNLESS EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED IN THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO REQUIRE ARBITRATION OF EVERY CLAIM OR DISPUTE THAT CAN LAWFULLY BE ARBITRATED, EXCEPT THOSE CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WHICH BY THE TERMS OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED FROM THE REQUIREMENT TO ARBITRATE.

This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) and the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), which can be found on the AAA’s website (www.adr.org) (the “AAA Rules”) or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. This Arbitration Agreement survives through the termination of this Agreement or the end of your relationship with Bathing.


Arbitration Procedure.

The Arbitration Procedure is commenced only upon the delivery of a written Demand for Arbitration by the User to Bathing, as specified by the AAA rules. The arbitration will be held in the in the county of King, State of Washington or another location agreed upon by you and Bathing. If the value of the claim is less than 10,000 USD, either you or Bathing may opt to proceed with the arbitration on the telephone or in written correspondence. Other claims may require in-person hearings, subject to the arbitrator’s discretion. In accordance with the AAA’s rules, fundamental fairness may be met by holding meetings on the telephone or by other electronic means, unless otherwise directed by the arbitrator. If your claim is greater than 10,000 USD, your right to a hearing will be determined by AAA rules.


Arbitrator.

You and Bathing agree that you rights in the event of a claim will be decided by a neutral arbitrator rather than a jury or judge. The Arbitrator, not a federal, state, or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to this Arbitration Agreement. In accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and the American Arbitration Association, the arbitrator may either be (a) a retired judge or (b) or a lawyer licensed to practice in the state of Washington and authorized by the AAA to conduct arbitration procedures. Both User and Bathing have equal right to choose the arbitrator from the AAA’s list of authorized consumer dispute arbitrators. If User and Bathing cannot agree on an arbitrator within seven (7) days of the delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, an arbitrator will be chosen by the AAA in accordance with AAA rules.

Arbitration Awards.

The Arbitrator will decide upon the substance of the award in compliance with all applicable laws and on the timeframe determined by AAA rules. The arbitrator’s award is final and binding on both you and Bathing. Judgement on the award may be brought to a court of competent jurisdiction to do so. Bathing hereby waives all right to recover costs associated with arbitration if Bathing wins in arbitration.

During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by User or Bathing must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any.

Fees.

The costs of arbitration will be shouldered based on AAA rules. If User commences arbitration in accordance with these Terms, User will be required to pay $250 to initiate the arbitration. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, Bathing will pay all other fees including filing fees and arbitrator and hearing expenses. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.

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, User agrees to reimburse Bathing 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 fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

No Class or Representative Actions.

YOU AND BATHING 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 User and Bathing 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. If any court or arbitrator determines that this “No Class or Representative Actions” section is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class or representative basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

Changes to this Arbitration Agreement.

Except for inconsequential changes that do not affect any rights or obligations herein, Bathing will provide thirty (30) days' notice of any changes to this section by posting on the Bathing Website, sending User a message, or otherwise notifying you when you are logged into your Account. Amendments will become effective thirty (30) days after they are posted on the Website or sent to you, or otherwise notified when you are logged into your Account. Changes to this section will otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day. If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection on "Modifications" is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled “Dispute Resolution and Arbitration,” and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section in existence after you began using the Website. You may otherwise reject the change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to Bathing’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Bathing will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.
