Dispute Resolution/Arbitration

 

This section applies to any dispute you have with Comcast Spectacor, unless the dispute involves rights to your, Comcast Spectacor’s, or our licensor’s intellectual property.

 

Location and Governing Law. These Terms are governed by, and must be construed in accordance with, the laws of the United States and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, as applicable, without giving effect to their principles of conflicts of law. By using the Platform, you waive any claims that may arise under the laws of other states, countries, territories or jurisdictions.  You consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal or State Courts located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in connection with the enforcement of these Terms.

 

Notice of Dispute. For any problem or dispute that you may have with Comcast Spectacor, you acknowledge and agree that you will first give the relevant Comcast Spectacor entity an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. This includes you first sending a Notice of Dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the dispute, and a proposed solution. You must send any Notice of Dispute by U.S. Mail to Comcast Spectacor at 3601 South Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148, Attn: General Counsel. You then agree to negotiate with Comcast Spectacor in good faith about your problem or dispute. This should lead to resolution, but if for some reason your problem or dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after Comcast Spectacor’s receipt of your written description of it, you agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.

 

Small Claims Court. You may litigate any dispute in small claims court in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or in your own county of residence, if the dispute meets all the requirements to be heard in small claims court. You may litigate in small claims court whether or not you negotiated informally first.

 

Binding Arbitration. If you and Comcast Spectacor do not resolve any dispute by informal negotiation or in small claims court, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by binding arbitration as described in this section. You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all disputes in court before a judge or jury. Instead, all disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.

 

IF APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT ALLOW BINDING ARBITRATION TO APPLY TO YOU, THE ABOVE PROVISION AND ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS WILL APPLY TO YOU TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

 

Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor Comcast Spectacor will seek to have any dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.

 

IF APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT ALLOW A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION PROCEEDINGS TO APPLY TO YOU, THE ABOVE PROVISION, AND ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS WILL APPLY TO YOU TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

 

Arbitration Procedures. Any arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. You agree to commence arbitration only in your county of residence or in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Comcast Spectacor agrees to commence arbitration only in your county of residence. You may request a telephonic or in-person hearing by following the AAA rules. In a dispute involving $10,000 or less, any hearing will be telephonic unless the arbitrator finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. The arbitrator may award the same damages to you individually as a court could. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only to you individually, and only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim. Further, unless all affected parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or group proceeding. 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.

 

Claims Or Disputes Must Be Filed Within One Year. To the extent permitted by law, any claim or dispute under these Terms must be filed within one year in small claims court, or in an arbitration proceeding. The one-year period begins when the claim or Notice of Dispute first could be filed. If a claim or dispute isn’t filed within one year, it’s permanently barred.

 

Right to Opt Out Of Arbitration.  IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU MUST NOTIFY COMCAST SPECTACOR IN WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST RECEIVE THESE TERMS BY EMAILING termsofservice@comcastspectacor.com  OR BY SENDING MAIL TO COMCAST SPECTACOR, 3601 SOUTH BROAD STREET, PHILADELPHIA, PA 19148-5290, ATTN: LEGAL DEPARTMENT/ARBITRATION. YOUR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION TO COMCAST SPECTACOR MUST INCLUDE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS AS WELL AS A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH COMCAST SPECTACOR THROUGH ARBITRATION. YOUR DECISION TO OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECT ON YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH COMCAST SPECTACOR OR THE DELIVERY OF SERVICE(S) TO YOU BY COMCAST SPECTACOR. IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY NOTIFIED COMCAST SPECTACOR OF YOUR DECISION TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION, YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO SO AGAIN.

 

Future Changes to the Arbitration Provision. If Comcast Spectacor makes any changes to the Dispute Resolution/Arbitration section of these Terms (other than a change to the address at which Comcast Spectacor will receive notices of dispute, opt-out notices or rejections of future changes to the Dispute Resolution/Arbitration section), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 calendar days of the change to:  termsofservice@comcastspectacor.com.  It is not necessary to send us a rejection of a future change to the Dispute Resolution/Arbitration section of these Terms if you had properly opted out of the arbitration and group litigation waiver provisions in this Dispute Resolution/Arbitration section within the first 30 calendar days after you first accepted these Terms. If you have not properly opted out of the arbitration and group litigation waiver provisions in this this Dispute Resolution/Arbitration section, by rejecting a future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Dispute Resolution/Arbitration section, as modified by any changes you did not reject.

 

This section survives expiration or termination of these Terms for any reason.

 

General

 

Integration and Severability.
