General Provisions

These Terms and your relationship with CinemaPlus will be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Nevada. Subject to the arbitration provisions, any action or claim arising out of use of our Site and Services will be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in Las Vegas, State of Nevada. You agree that such claims will be addressed within this jurisdiction and that you will not pursue a transfer of such action to any other jurisdiction.

 

Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

Certain portions of this section are deemed to be a “written agreement to arbitrate” pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act.  

You and CinemaPlus agree that we will resolve any disputes between us through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and CinemaPlus hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim (as defined herein). All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and CinemaPlus relating to these Terms (each a "Claim") shall be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA Rules") in the City of Las Vegas, State of Nevada. You agree that all Claims will be governed by the laws of the State of Nevada without regard to Nevada's choice of law principles. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies.

If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, CinemaPlus may pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator's fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.

This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or CinemaPlus from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and CinemaPlus also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, you and CinemaPlus retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these Terms, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of, related to or connected in any way with your use of the Site or Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever banned. Any and all claims, judgments, and awards will be limited to actual third-party, out-of-pocket costs incurred (if any), but in no event will attorneys' fees be awarded or recoverable.

Neither you nor CINEMAPLUS may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or CINEMAPLUS' individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.

If any provision of this section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this section shall continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this section of these Terms will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of these Terms. This section of these Terms will survive the termination of your relationship with CinemaPlus.

THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR CINEMAPLUS WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

 

Entire Agreement

These Terms and all other terms and conditions related to the Site and Services, represent and constitute the entire agreement between you and CinemaPlus. These Terms supersede any prior terms and conditions and governs your use of the Site and Services.
