10. Arbitration. Except for claims or disputes related to protecting a party’s intellectual property, each party agrees that any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Tech Services will be settled by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator, and not in a court of law. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written demand for arbitration as specified in such rules. Unless the parties agree in writing otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the city of Los Angeles, California. The award and decision of the arbitrator will be conclusive and binding upon all parties, and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator will have the right to include in the award any relief which they deem proper in the circumstances, only to the extent permitted by these Terms, provided that the arbitrator will not have the authority to award exemplary or punitive damages. The arbitrator will award the prevailing party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. Each party agrees that arbitration will be conducted on an individual, not a class‑wide, basis and that any arbitration proceeding between you and us and/or our affiliates will not be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding involving us or any other person or entity.
