The place of arbitration shall be Denver County, Colorado. The AAA Rules and fee information are available at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. THESE TERMS MEMORIALIZE A TRANSACTION IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE. THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT GOVERNS THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS.
YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, BOTH PARTIES WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JUDGE OR JURY AND AGREE TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BY ARBITRATION. BOTH PARTIES AGREE THAT CLAIMS MAY ONLY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT ON BEHALF OF, OR AS PART OF, A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If this specific paragraph is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the arbitration provisions set forth in these Terms shall be null and void and rendered of no further effect with respect to the specific claim at issue.
Any arbitration award over $75,000 may be appealed to a three-person panel appointed by the same arbitration institution that rendered the original award. Any such appeal must be filed within thirty (30) days and the appeal will be decided, based on that institution’s appeal rules, within one hundred twenty (120) days of filing. The decision of the three-arbitrator panel shall be final and binding, except for any appellate right which may exist under the Federal Arbitration Act. The parties may agree that arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents submitted to the arbitrator(s), via a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by AAA Rules. The parties agree that the arbitrator(s) must give effect to the provisions of these Terms.
You may opt out of the arbitration provisions set forth in these Terms. If you do so, neither you nor Flackers may require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must notify Flackers in writing at the address set forth below within thirty (30) days of the date that you first became subject to this arbitration provision.

Attn: Arbitration Opt-out
Your written notice must include your name and address, as well as a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration provisions set forth in these Terms.
If the prohibition against class action and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained in this Section is found to be unenforceable, then all of this Section will be null and void. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, IN THE EVENT SOME OR ALL OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS ARE DETERMINED TO BE UNENFORCEABLE FOR ANY REASON, OR IF A CLAIM IS BROUGHT THAT IS FOUND BY A COURT TO BE EXCLUDED FROM THE SCOPE OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS, BOTH PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, ANY TRIAL BY JURY. For purposes of the foregoing sentence only, in the event such waiver is found to be unenforceable, it shall be severed from these Terms, and rendered null and void and of no further effect without affecting the rest of the arbitration provisions set forth herein.
Claims Limitation. YOU HAVE ONE (1) YEAR TO BRING A CLAIM AGAINST Flackers, UNLESS YOU OPT OUT. You must bring any claim against Flackers within one (1) year after the date on which the claim arose, unless applicable law provides that the normal statute of limitations for that claim may not be shortened by agreement. If you do not bring a claim within this period, you waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights you have to such claim and Flackers will have no liability with respect to such claim. You may opt out of this limitation, in which case the normal statute of limitations will apply. To opt out, you must notify Flackers in writing at the address below within thirty (30) days of the date that you first became subject to this provision.

Attn: Claims Limitation Opt-out
Your written notice must include your name and address, as well as a clear statement that you do not wish this Section to apply. This Section shall survive the termination of these Terms.
- Notwithstanding the mandatory arbitration provisions of these Terms, each of Flackers and you reserve the right to seek and obtain injunctive or other equitable relief necessary to enforce their legal rights, including, without limitation, non-monetary claims associated with these Terms. Flackers and you stipulate and agree that the proper forum for such injunctive or other equitable relief shall be as set forth in Section 20 of these Terms, above, which shall have exclusive jurisdiction over such claims.
- Entire Agreement; Severability; Waiver. These Terms, our Privacy Policy, and any applicable Additional Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Flackers and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and verbal, with respect to the Websites. If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable, then that provision is to be construed either by modifying it to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable (if permitted by law) or disregarding it (if not). If an unenforceable provision is modified or disregarded in accordance with this Section, the rest of these Terms are to remain in effect as written, and the unenforceable provision is to remain as written in any circumstances other than those in which the provision is held to be unenforceable. If Flackers fails to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of these Terms, it does not thereby waive any provision or right. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice shall act to modify any of these Terms.
- Force Majeure. Flackers shall not be liable for any failure of performance or equipment of any kind (including the Website) due to causes beyond its control, including but not limited to: acts of God, fire, flood, or other catastrophes, any law, order, regulation, direction, action, or request of the United States Government, or of any other government, including state and local governments having or claiming jurisdiction over Flackers, or of any department agency, commission, bureau, corporation, or other instrumentality of any one or more of these federal, state, or local governments, or of any civil or military authority; national emergencies; insurrection; riots, wars; or strikes, lock-outs, work stoppages, or other labor difficulties.
- Third-Party Beneficiaries. Flackers’s affiliates are intended third-party beneficiaries under these Terms with the right to enforce the provisions that directly concern products or services offered or provided by such affiliate or to which they have rights.
