Any dispute, controversy, or claim between the parties arising out of or relating in any way to these TERMS, an Order, Onyx Auto Transport\u2019s services or any other Customer engagement with Onyx Auto Transport will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that Customer or Onyx Auto Transport (1) must assert claims in small claims court if Customer\u2019s or our claims qualify, and (2) bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights, including with respect to temporary restraining orders. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law shall apply to this arbitration agreement.<\/p><p class=\"privicy-policy-content-text\">There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages).<\/p><p class=\"privicy-policy-content-text\">At least thirty (30) days before beginning an arbitration proceeding, Customer must send an individualized letter personally signed by Customer and identifying Customer, Customer\u2019s legal claims, the requested relief and requesting arbitration to Onyx Auto Transport\u2013 11 Westwood CT Newtown, PA 18940 by certified mail, Federal Express, UPS or USPS express mail (signature required). We will do the same; except in the event that we do not have a physical address on file for Customer, by electronic mail to the last known address. Except as otherwise stated herein, the arbitration will be conducted by the National Arbitration Mediation (\u201cNAM\u201d) under its rules, including for Consumer-Related Disputes. Customer and Onyx Auto Transport also agree to delegate the issue of arbitrability to an arbitrator. Payment of administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the NAM\u2019s rules, except all of the filing fees will be paid by the filing party. If Customer is a prevailing party, Customer may seek reimbursement of Customer\u2019s fees and costs. However, Onyx Auto Transport may seek our attorney\u2019s fees and costs if the arbitration finds Customer\u2019s claims to be frivolous. There will be only one arbitrator, not a panel. Customer may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where Customer lives or at another mutually agreed location. Customer and Onyx Auto Transport also agree that, if more than one dispute arises regarding the same or substantially similar issues, the parties\u2019 respective claim(s) will be arbitrated in the order in which it\/they were filed, except all claims shall be arbitrated within three (3) years. THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WILL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS.<\/p><p class=\"privicy-policy-content-text\"><b>B.<\/b>Class Action Waiver. The parties each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings or lawsuits, whether in arbitration or in a court of law, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class or representative action. Therefore, Customer waives all rights to bring claims on behalf of a class of persons; however, Customer may still bring an individual claim for public injunctive relief and in small claims court. Nothing in this provision, however, should operate to prevent the parties from settling claims on a classwide basis or otherwise coordinating claims filed in arbitration.<\/p><p class=\"privicy-policy-content-text\"><b>C.\u00a0<\/b>Enforceability. If this arbitration agreement is invalidated in whole or part, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction in the section below entitled \u201cGoverning Law; Jurisdiction\u201d shall govern any claim in court arising out of or related to these Terms.<\/p><p class=\"privicy-policy-content-text\"><b>D.\u00a0<\/b>Jury Trial and Small Claims Court. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the parties each waive any right to a jury trial. The parties also both agree that Customer or Onyx Auto Transport may bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights, including with respect to temporary restraining orders.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Terms of service Review the terms of service for Onyx Auto Transport, covering user agreements, legal obligations, and policies for [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"full-width-container","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2970","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2970","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2970"}],"version-history":[{"count":38,"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2970\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13468,"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2970\/revisions\/13468"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onyxautotransport.com\/onyxautotransport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2970"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
