16. Governing Law; Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH BRIDGECARE AND IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF.

You and BridgeCare agree to submit any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms or the Site to final and binding arbitration, except that you and BridgeCare are not required to arbitrate: (i) any dispute in which either party seeks equitable or other relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, and (ii) any claim within the jurisdictional limits of small claims court, provided that you or BridgeCare bring such claim in small claims court. ARBITRATION PREVENTS YOU FROM SUING IN COURT OR FROM HAVING A JURY TRIAL.

You and BridgeCare agree that any arbitration will occur in Seattle, Washington and that arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association. You and BridgeCare also agree that the state or federal courts in King County, Washington have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals of an arbitration award and over any suit between the parties not subject to arbitration. Other than class procedures and remedies discussed below, the arbitrator has the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court. WHETHER THE DISPUTE IS HEARD IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND BRIDGECARE WILL NOT COMMENCE AGAINST THE OTHER A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. IN NO EVENT WILL THE ARBITRATOR HAVE ANY AUTHORITY TO ARBITRATE CLAIMS ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS BROUGHT BY OR AGAINST YOU MAY NOT BE JOINED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH CLAIMS BROUGHT BY OR AGAINST ANY OTHER PERSON. IF THIS CLASS WAIVER IS DETERMINED TO BE INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRE ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL BE VOID AND OF NO FORCE OR EFFECT TO ANY CLASS ACTIONS.
