The Service may contain links to independent third-party websites and/or services (collectively, "Linked Sites"). The Linked Sites are not under GigaStar’ control, and GigaStar does not endorse, is not responsible for and shall have no liability to you with respect to the business practices, privacy policies or content, materials, information, merchandise, products or services displayed, featured, mentioned, advertised, distributed or sold on or through such Linked Sites. By accessing a Linked Site, you may be disclosing your private information and be exposing yourself to content that you find disturbing.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by, construed and entered in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts deemed to be made within such state, without regard to choice of law or conflict of law provisions thereof. YOU HEREBY WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ARISING OUT OF, OR RELATING TO, THESE TERMS OF USE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

Dispute Resolution

In the event of any claim, controversy or alleged dispute between you and GigaStar, its members or affiliates ("Dispute"), you hereby agree to attempt in good faith to amicably resolve any Dispute at least 30 days before instituting any legal proceeding. Each party agrees to submit any Dispute for resolution by final binding arbitration after serving written notice, which notice shall set forth in detail the controversy, question, claim or alleged breach along with your attempt to resolve such Dispute. Upon such notice and attempt to resolve, the party may then commence an arbitration proceeding pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") to be held in Chicago, Illinois before one arbitrator to be selected by the AAA. Any such arbitration may only be commenced within one year after the party requesting arbitration obtains knowledge of the cause of action forming the basis of the controversy or claim accrued.

In any arbitration and subject to the ultimate discretion of the presiding arbitrator, each side will be limited to a maximum of one (1) day of argument (including rebuttal), and the parties agree in good faith to minimize discovery burdens (e.g. confine the scope to actual areas in dispute and limit the topics and number of pages on which information is requested to matters directly relevant). The decision(s) of the arbitrator shall be final and binding and may not be appealed to any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise, except upon claim of fraud or corruption as by law provided, provided, however, that implementation of such decision(s) shall in no way be delayed or otherwise impaired pending the outcome of any such appeal. Judgment upon the award rendered in such arbitration may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. You agree that all Disputes will be limited between you, individually, and GigaStar. TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT NO ARBITRATION PROCEEDING OR OTHER DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER PARTY OR DECIDED ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that the following matters shall not, at the election of GigaStar, be subject to binding arbitration: (1) any Disputes concerning GigaStar's intellectual property rights; and (2) any claim for injunctive relief. Any Dispute not subject to arbitration shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within Chicago, Illinois. Each party hereby waives any claim that such venue is improper or inconvenient.
