11. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration Agreement
We will try work in good faith to resolve any issue you have with the Site if you bring that issue to our attention. Nevertheless, we realize that there may be rare cases where we may not be able to resolve an issue to a customer’s satisfaction.
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Site will be resolved by binding arbitration. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow these Terms of Use as a court would. To begin an arbitration proceeding, either party must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing the claim to the other party. If you are sending an arbitration request letter to AAA Club Alliance, such letter shall be sent to: AAA Club Alliance Inc., One River Place, Wilmington, DE 19801, Attn: Legal Department or by e-mail to AAALegal@aaamidatlantic.com. The arbitration will be conducted by one mutually acceptable arbitrator through the American Arbitration Association under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The American Arbitration Association’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration, if in person, will be conducted in Wilmington, Delaware. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the American Arbitration Association rules. In addition, YOU AND AAA CLUB ALLIANCE 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 OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY-GENERAL. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO BRING A CLAIM AS A PLAINTIFF OR AS A MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Further, unless both you and AAA Club Alliance agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.
If this arbitration agreement is found to be unenforceable, then exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claims will be in state or federal courts in the State of Delaware. You further agree and expressly consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction in the courts of the State of Delaware in connection with any such claim. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. You and AAA Club Alliance both agree that you or AAA Club Alliance may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
12. Governing Law
All matters relating to the Site and these Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
13. Waiver

14. Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Use is found to be invalid by any court having competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use, which shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any of these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition.
