Jurisdiction and venue: These Terms of Service constitute an agreement between you and us, which you and we agree is deemed made within the State of California.

The parties shall make a good faith effort to resolve any pending breach of these Terms of Service, or any other dispute arising under or in connection with these Terms of Service, through mediation conducted within thirty (30) days following first assertion of the breach or dispute.

If eight (8) hours of such mediation does not fully resolve the breach or dispute, or if the parties do not conduct such mediation, the breach or dispute shall be resolved in Southern California by binding arbitration before a single member arbitration panel under the administration and rules of the American Arbitration Association. The parties agree to take and shall direct the arbitrator to take all necessary steps to conduct any arbitration only via teleconference (i.e., telephone) and written correspondence (including e-mail) to the fullest extent practicable and possible.  Judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

You agree that the state and federal courts located within Los Angeles County, California shall have irrevocable personal jurisdiction over you for the purpose of enforcing such arbitration awards. You agree not to challenge such courts’ personal jurisdiction or venue for such purpose by raising “inconvenient forum” or similar defenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing mediation and arbitration provisions, we shall never be precluded or delayed from seeking and obtaining temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief without the posting of any bond against infringement or other violation of its claimed intellectual property rights, or other relief that it deems reasonably necessary to defend or enforce its rights or these Terms of Service, in any court(s) of competent jurisdiction.
