ARBITRATION AND ENFORCEMENT

 

These Terms of Service shall be governed and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State of California, United States of America, notwithstanding any principles of conflicts of law.

 

In the event of a dispute arising under or relating to these terms of service, our website, or any products or services provided by us (each, a “Dispute”), either party may elect to finally and exclusively resolve the dispute by arbitration conducted in the English language in Orange County, California under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association.  The parties shall appoint as sole arbitrator a retired judge who presided in the State of Nevada.  The parties shall bear equally the cost of the arbitration (except that the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the arbitration in such an amount as may be determined by the arbitrator).  All decisions of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on both parties and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, O.C. Golf Events shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, security, or other equitable remedies from federal and state courts located in the State of Nevada or any other court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to protect O.C. Golf Events’ proprietary interests.  Under no circumstances shall the arbitrator be authorized to award punitive damages, including but not limited to federal or state statutes permitting multiple or punitive damage awards.  Any purported award of punitive or multiple damages shall be beyond the arbitrator's authority, void, and unenforceable.  BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A COURT HEAR CLAIM ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AMONG OTHER WAIVERS OF RIGHTS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.

 

CLASS ACTION WAIVER

 

You agree that any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the Dispute between O.C. Golf Events and you individually.  To the full extent permitted by law, (i) no arbitration or proceeding shall be joined with any other; (ii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated or resolved on a class action-basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (iii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST US ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

 

SEVERABILITY

 

To the extent you are located in the United States, if any provisions of this Agreement are not permitted by applicable law or regulation, those provisions shall be of no force or effect as between you and O.C. Golf Events.  If any part of these Terms of Service is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions as between you and O.C. Golf Events.
