  1.   Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
  2.   Governing Law. All matters relating to the Platform and these Terms, together with any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference herein, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction).
  3. Dispute Resolution. We value our customers and seek to resolve disputes informally where possible. Before filing an action against us, you agreed to submit a detailed claim notice to us ("Claim Notice") to Love by e-mail at: support@love.com. Your Claim Notice must contain enough information to apprise us of the full details of your claim, including: (a) your full name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address; (b) detailed information sufficient for Love to identify the order, Product, or claim at issue; and (c) a detailed description of the nature and basis of your claim and the relief you seek. The Claim Notice must be personally signed by you. Similarly, if we have a dispute with you, we will send you a Claim Notice setting out detailed information regarding: (a) the identify the order, Product, or claim at issue and (b) the nature and basis of our claim and the relief we seek. If, following good faith negotiations, you and Love are unable to resolve the subject of a Claim Notice for a period of at least 60 days from the date of the Claim Notice, then the dispute shall be submitted to arbitration pursuant to Section 16(C).
  4. Binding Arbitration. You and Love agree that any dispute or claim arising from or relating to the Terms shall be finally settled by final and binding arbitration, using the English language, administered by JAMS in accordance with the JAMS commercial arbitration rules. The arbitral tribunal shall consist of one arbitrator. The place of arbitration shall be San Francisco, California. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or these Terms are void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. If you prevail on any claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys' fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to you under the standards for fee shifting provided by law. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND LOVE AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE RESOLVED INDIVIDUALLY, WITHOUT RESORT TO ANY FORM OF CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. NEITHER YOU NOR LOVE WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER USERS OR CLAIMANTS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.

YOU AND LOVE AGREE TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND US ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS THROUGH THE SITE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
