Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement

 

This Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement will apply if your (i) country of residence or establishment is in the United States; or (ii) your country of residence or establishment is not in the United States, but you bring any claim against Paths Less Travelled, LLC in the United States.

 

Overview of Dispute Resolution Process.  Paths Less Travelled, LLC is committed to participating in a reasonable and efficient dispute resolution process.  To that end, these Terms provide for a two-part process for parties to whom this section applies:  (1) an informal negotiation directly with Paths Less Travelled, LLC’s customer service team, and (2) a binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).  If you are a business, or acting in some way on behalf of your employer, then the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply.  Otherwise, if you are an individual seeking Paths Less Travelled, LLC’s services for your personal use, then AAA’s specially designed Consumer Arbitration Rules will apply.  In each case, the rules are modified by this “Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement” section to the extent permitted.  The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1–800–778–7879.

 

If the Consumer Arbitration Rules apply, those rules provide:

 

  • Claims can be filed with AAA online (www.adr.org);

 

  • Arbitrators must be neutral and no party may unilaterally select an arbitrator;

 

  • Arbitrators must disclose any bias, interest in the result of the arbitration, or relationship with any party;

 

  • Parties retain the right to seek relief in small claims court for certain claims, at their option;

 

  • The initial filing fee for the consumer is capped at $200;

 

  • The consumer gets to elect the hearing location and can elect to participate live, by phone, video conference, or, for claims under $25,000, by the submission of documents;

 

  • The arbitrator can grant any remedy that the parties could have received in court to resolve the party’s individual claim.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE:  CONSUMER RULES WILL NOT APPLY TO BUSINESSES OR ANY PERSON USING THE PATHS LESS TRAVELLED, LLC PLATFORM ON BEHALF OF THEIR EMPLOYER.

 

Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution and Notification.  Prior to initiating arbitration, you and Paths Less Travelled, LLC each agree to notify the other party of the dispute and attempt to negotiate an informal resolution to it first.  If Paths Less Travelled, LLC has a dispute, we will contact you at the email address provided when completing your booking, or using other contact information you have provided to us in your profile.  If you have a dispute with Paths Less Travelled, LLC, you can contact Paths Less Travelled, LLC’s customer service team by emailing us at customerservice@pathslesstravelled.com.  If after a good faith effort to negotiate one of us feels the dispute has not and cannot be resolved informally, the party intending to pursue arbitration agrees to notify the other party via email prior to initiating the arbitration.  In order to initiate arbitration, a claim must be filed with the AAA and the written Demand for Arbitration (available at www.adr.org) provided to the other party, as specified in the AAA Rules.

 

Agreement to Arbitrate.  You and Paths Less Travelled, LLC mutually agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Website Terms of Use or the applicability, breach, termination, validity, enforcement or interpretation thereof, or to the use of the Paths Less Travelled, LLC website (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding individual arbitration (the “Arbitration Agreement”).  If there is a dispute about whether this Arbitration Agreement can be enforced or applies to our Dispute, you and Paths Less Travelled, LLC agree that the arbitrator will decide that issue.

 

EXCEPTIONS:  You and Paths Less Travelled, LLC each agree that the following claims are exceptions to the Arbitration Agreement and may be immediately brought in a judicial proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction: (i) any claim related to actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights and (ii) any claim seeking emergency injunctive relief based on exigent circumstances (e.g., imminent danger or commission of a crime, hacking, cyber-attack).  Furthermore, Paths Less Travelled, LLC reserves right to seek equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms of Use or the Website, and not subject to arbitration, shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Florida, in each case located in the City of Tampa and County of Hillsborough although we retain the right to bring any suit, action, or proceeding against you for breach of these Terms of Use in your place of residence or any other relevant country or in any court of competent jurisdiction. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.

 

Arbitration Hearing/Location.  Paths Less Travelled, LLC agrees that any required arbitration hearing may be conducted, at your option, (a) in Tampa, FL; (b) in any other location to which you and Paths Less Travelled, LLC both agree; or (c) via phone or video conference.  For any claim or counterclaim under $25,000, the arbitration will be conducted by solely the submission of documents to the arbitrator unless the arbitrator decides that documents alone are not sufficient to resolve the dispute.

 

Attorney’s Fees and Costs.  You and Paths Less Travelled, LLC agree that Paths Less Travelled, LLC will be responsible for payment of the balance of any initial filing fee under the AAA Rules in excess of $200 for claims of $75,000 or less.  You may be entitled to seek an award of attorney fees and expenses if you prevail in arbitration, to the extent provided under applicable law and the AAA rules.  For arbitrations conducted under the Consumer Arbitration Rules, unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous or filed for the purpose of harassment, Paths Less Travelled, LLC agrees it will not seek, and hereby waives all rights it may have under applicable law or the AAA Rules, to recover attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration. For arbitrations conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees from the other party.

 

Arbitrator’s Decision.  The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award.  Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court with proper jurisdiction.  The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim.

 

Limitation on Time to File Claims

 

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

 

Waiver and Severability

 

No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

 

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

 

Entire Agreement

 

The Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, Tour Conditions, Waiver and Release, and Confirmation Email constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Paths Less Travelled, LLC regarding the Website and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Website.
