15. APPLICABLE LAW AND DISPUTES
Acme FX controls and operates this website from within Canada. Unless otherwise specified on or within this Website, this Website is intended to promote only products and services that are sold by Acme FX in Canada, and Acme FX makes no representation that materials in this website or the conduct described thereby are appropriate or available for use in other locations. All visitors to this website are responsible for compliance with all local laws applicable to them with respect to the content and operation of this Website.
These Terms of Use, your rights and obligations, our rights and obligations, and all actions contemplated by these Terms of Use, will be governed by the laws of Canada, without regard to principles of conflicts of law and as if these Terms of Use were a contract wholly entered into and wholly performed within Canada. These Terms of Use will not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
If you are unable to resolve any dispute informally, you and A cme FX agree that upon demand by either you or Acme FX , the dispute will be resolved through confidential binding arbitration in, Ontario, Canada , except that, to the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate our intellectual property rights, we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any province or federal court in Ontario, Canada, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts. A “dispute” is any unresolved disagreement between you and Acme FX , regardless of when the claim arose, and includes claims based on contracts, torts, statutes, regulations, common law, and equitable claims. All statutes of limitation applicable to any dispute shall apply in any arbitration between you and Acme FX.
You and Acme FX agree that you are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a court. You and Acme FX agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and that neither you nor A cme FX shall be entitled to join or consolidate claims by or against others in any arbitration, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or on behalf of the general public, or as a private attorney general. If this limitation is found to be unenforceable, it shall not be severable, and this entire arbitration provision shall be unenforceable. You and Acme FX agree that the arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the party seeking relief, and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. In the event of any inconsistency between this arbitration provision and any provision contained in any other applicable terms of use, license agreement, disclaimer, or Privacy Policy relating to A cme FX or the material on the website, this arbitration provision shall be controlling.
Each arbitration, including the selection of the arbitrator, will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) according to its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedure for Consumer-Related Disputes (together, the “AAA Rules”). The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7979. In the event of any inconsistency between the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision, this arbitration provision shall be controlling. Either party may demand arbitration of a dispute at any time, regardless of whether a lawsuit or other proceeding has previously been commenced. Either party may demand arbitration by completing the form for Consumer-Related Disputes provided for that purpose, and following the instructions on the form. The form is available on the AAA’s website, www.adr.org, or by calling AAA Case Filing Services at 1-877-495-4185. You should attach a copy of this arbitration provision, which will remain available online. If you demand arbitration, you must send a copy of the form or other demand, by U.S. Certified Mail, addressed to: Acme FX. If Acme FX demands arbitration, you will be sent a copy of the form or other demand, by U.S. Certified Mail, at the most current postal address that Acme FX has for you in its records. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, each party will remain solely responsible for their own attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with the arbitration.
You and Acme FX agree that: (1) the parties are participating in transactions affecting interstate commerce; (2) this arbitration provision and any resulting arbitration are governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code); (3) the arbitrator shall decide any dispute regarding the interpretation, application, or enforceability of this arbitration provision; (4) neither party will disclose, to any third party, any information obtained from the other party in the arbitration proceeding, except as required by applicable law; and (5) neither party will be entitled to rely on any arbitration award, finding of fact, or conclusion of law issued in any other arbitration proceeding involving only one of the parties. This arbitration provision shall survive the termination of any other contract between you and A cme FX. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms of Use or respond to a breach by you or others shall not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce any other provision of these Terms of Use as to that breach or any other.
If any provision of these Terms of Use is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision.
