9.0 How We Will Handle Disputes

9.1 We hope there won’t be any problems and that you will reach out to us if you are having issues with our service. But, if you have a legal problem with Site, you agree to use binding arbitration under the AAA, which means you will not get to go to court by yourself or with others or be part of a class-action lawsuit or arbitration. You agree to waive a trial by jury. The following claims don't have to be arbitrated and may be brought to court: small claims, intellectual property disputes (like copyrights and trademarks), or efforts to interfere with the services or engage with the service in unauthorized ways. A court can also decide issues about the scope and enforceability of these arbitration provisions. 

9.2. In the event that you fail to make payment for any outstanding sums due to the Company within the specified timeframe as set forth in Section 7.0 of these Terms and Conditions or on the applicable sales or checkout page, the Company reserves the right to immediately initiate collections proceedings and does not have to arbitrate this matter. Upon commencement of collections proceedings, you shall be responsible for the total amount of any outstanding payments, as well as any costs associated with the collections process, including but not limited to reasonable attorney's fees. The Company may, at its discretion, engage the services of a third-party collections agency to facilitate the collection of the outstanding amounts.

9.3 For any claim that is not arbitrated or resolved in small claims court, you agree that it will be resolved exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the District of Tennessee or a state court located in Tennessee. You also agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of either of these courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim.

9.4 The laws of the State of Tennessee, to the extent not preempted by or inconsistent with federal law, will govern these Terms and any claim, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
