    You and Swapyourauto.com agree that any claim or dispute at law or equity that has arisen or may arise between us relating in any way to or arising out of this or previous versions of the Swapyourauto.com User Agreement your use of or access to the Services, or any products or services sold or purchased through the Services will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Legal Disputes Section.

    1. Applicable Law

      You agree that the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern the User Agreement and any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and Swapyourauto.com, except as otherwise stated in the User Agreement.

    2. Agreement to Arbitrate

      You and Swapyourauto.com each agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Swapyourauto.com relating in any way to or arising out of this or previous versions of the User Agreement, your use of or access to Swapyourauto.com's Services, or any products or services sold, offered, or purchased through Swapyourauto.com's Services shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate.

      1. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief

        YOU AND SWAPYOURAUTO.COM AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER USERS.

      2. Arbitration Procedures

        Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual. An arbitrator should apply the terms of the User Agreement as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to arbitrability, the scope or enforceability of this Agreement to Arbitrate, or the interpretation of Section 1 of this Agreement to Arbitrate ("Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief"), shall be for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide.

        The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its rules and procedures, including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (as applicable), as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The use of the word "arbitrator" herein shall not be construed to prohibit more than one arbitrator from presiding over an arbitration, rather the AAA's rules will govern the number of arbitrators that may preside over an arbitration conducted under this Agreement to Arbitrate.

        A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a completed form Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). You may download a form Notice here. The Notice to Swapyourauto.com should be sent to Swapyourauto.com Inc., Attn: Litigation Department, Re: Notice of Dispute 516 NW 75th St, Unit #10., Gainesville, FL 32607. Swapyourauto.com will send any Notice to you to the physical address we have on file associated with your Swapyourauto.com account; it is your responsibility to keep your physical address up to date. All information called for in the Notice must be provided, including a description of the nature and basis of the claims the party is asserting and the relief sought.

        If you and Swapyourauto.com are unable to resolve the claims described in the Notice within 30 days after the Notice is sent, you or Swapyourauto.com may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA's site at www.adr.org. In addition to filing this form with the AAA in accordance with its rules and procedures, the party initiating the arbitration must mail a copy of the completed form to the opposing party. You may send a copy to Swapyourauto.com at the following address: Swapyourauto.com, Inc. 516 NW 75th St, Unit #10, Gainesville, FL 32607. In the event Swapyourauto.com initiates an arbitration against you, it will send a copy of the completed form to the physical address we have on file associated with your Swapyourauto.com account or the email address we have in case you did not disclose your physical address. Any settlement offer made by you or Swapyourauto.com shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.

        The arbitration shall be held in Alachua County, Florida or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or Swapyourauto.com may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and Swapyourauto.com subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. In cases where an in-person hearing is held, you and/or Swapyourauto.com may attend by telephone, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

        The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same Swapyourauto.com user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

      3. Costs of Arbitration

        Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate In the event the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration to be frivolous, you agree to reimburse Swapyourauto.com for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by Swapyourauto.com on your behalf that you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the AAA's rules.

      4. Severability

        With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 1 of this Agreement to Arbitrate ("Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief"), if an arbitrator or court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If an arbitrator or court decides that any of the provisions in Section 1 of this Agreement to Arbitrate ("Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief") is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall be null and void. The remainder of the Agreement and its Legal Disputes Section will continue to apply.

      5. Future Amendments to the Agreement to Arbitrate

        Notwithstanding any provision in the User Agreement to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any amendment to this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than an amendment to any notice address or site link provided herein) in the future, that amendment shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against Swapyourauto.com prior to the effective date of the amendment.

If you do not agree to these amended terms, you may close your account within the 30 day period and you will not be bound by the amended terms.

    3. Judicial Forum for Legal Disputes

      Unless you and we agree otherwise, in the event that the Agreement to Arbitrate above is found not to apply to you or to a particular claim or dispute, either as a result of your decision to opt-out of the Agreement to Arbitrate or as a result of a decision by the arbitrator or a court order, you agree that any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and Swapyourauto.com must be resolved exclusively by a Florida state court located in Alachua County, Florida.
