- ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY.
- Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes. Except as provided in Section 22(h), below, you and SKANDI agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Products and/or Services, these Terms, the Product Terms and Conditions, the Limited Warranty, the EULA or this Arbitration Agreement shall be determined by binding arbitration by a single arbitrator in accordance with this Section 29 (“Arbitration Agreement”). Arbitration is generally more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Where so authorized, arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU AGREE THAT THE U.S. FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (“FAA”) GOVERNS THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, AND THAT YOU AND SKANDI ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. This Arbitration Agreement shall survive termination of the Terms.
- Arbitration Notice. If you elect to seek arbitration, you must first send to SKANDI, by certified mail, a written notice of your claim (“Arbitration Notice”). The Arbitration Notice to SKANDI must be addressed to: SKANDI Pty Ltd – Legal Department, 3/6 Fortitude Crescent, Burleigh Heads 4220, Queensland, Australia. Except as provided below, if SKANDI initiates arbitration, it will send a written Arbitration Notice to the email address used for your SKANDI account. An Arbitration Notice, whether sent by you or by SKANDI, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If SKANDI and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Arbitration Notice is received, you or SKANDI may commence an arbitration proceeding by thereafter filing a copy of the Demand with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) at the following AAA office nearest to the hearing location specified below (“Arbitration Notice Address”).
- Filing Fees. You may download or copy a form Arbitration Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after SKANDI receives notice from the AAA that you have commenced arbitration by filing your Demand at the Arbitration Notice Address, SKANDI will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000, in which event you will be responsible for filing fees.
- American Arbitration Association. The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the AAA, as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879 during normal business hours, or by writing to the Arbitration Notice Address. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement which shall govern over the AAA Rules and the FAA. Except as provided in Section 22(h), below, all issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless SKANDI and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in Los Angeles, California.
- Telephonic/In-Person Hearing. If the Demand is for US$10,000 or less, the arbitration will be conducted, at the option of the party that made the first Demand, solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, or through a telephonic hearing, or through a hearing by videoconference . If the Demand exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim, to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to a single individual or entity (and not a class or as a private attorney general) under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law information necessary to enforce this Agreement or an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief as may be permitted by these Terms.
- Claims Only In Individual Capacity. YOU AND SKANDI 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, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and SKANDI 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 a court decides that applicable Law precludes enforcement of any of this subsection’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court.
- Changes to Arbitration Agreement. If SKANDI makes any changes to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to its Arbitration Notice Address or other contact information), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to SKANDI at its address specified in Section 29(b). By rejecting a future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement, as modified by any changes you did not reject.
- Protection of Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Rights. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Arbitration Agreement, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s IP or confidential information shall not be subject to the Arbitration Agreement (“IP Claims”). Except for IP Claims, and notwithstanding the provisions of the Arbitration Agreement, either you or SKANDI may bring an individual action in small claims court. In all court cases, you agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts in and for Los Angeles County, California, and consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.
- Use of Information. SKANDI reserves the right, and you authorize us, to use and assign all information regarding site uses by you and all information provided by you in any manner consistent with our Privacy Policy.
- Copyrights and Copyright Agent. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials available on the Services infringe you copyright, you (or your agent) may send to SKANDI a written notice by mail or email requesting that SKANDI remove such material or block access to it. If you believe in good faith that someone has wrongly filed a notice of copyright infringement against you, the DMCA permits you to send to SKANDI a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. See www.copyright.gov for details. Notices and counter-notices must be sent in writing to SKANDI as follows: by email to contact@skandistore.com
- Severability. If any provision of these Terms shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid under applicable Law in such jurisdiction, such provision or part thereof shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect, and will be deemed to not form part of the contract between us but only in such jurisdiction. The legality, validity or enforceability of the remainder of these Terms will remain in full force and effect in all other jurisdictions.
- Taxes. You will be responsible for paying, withholding, filing, and reporting all federal, state, and local good taxes, duties, customs, levies, and other governmental assessment associated with your activity in connection with the Services, provide that SKANDI may, in its sole discretion, do any of the foregoing on your behalf or for itself as it sees fit.
- Waiver. The failure of SKANDI to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of these Terms by SKANDI must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of SKANDI.
- Delays. There may be delays, omissions, or inaccuracies in the Services, including the Content. The Services may become unavailable due to maintenance or malfunction of computer equipment or other reasons. You agree that SKANDI is not, and will not be, liable for any such delays, omissions, inaccuracies, or unavailability.
- Termination. We may terminate these Terms at any time, with or without notice, for any reason.
- Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained in these Terms or your use of a Site shall be construed to constitute either party as a partner, joint venturer, employee or agent of the other party, nor shall either party hold itself out as such. Neither party has any right or authority to incur, assume or create, in writing or otherwise, any warranty, liability or other obligation of any kind, express or implied, in the name of or on behalf of the other party, it being intended by both parties that each shall remain independent contractors responsible for its own actions.

- Interpretation. Headings are for convenience only and are not to be used in the interpretation of this Agreement.
