Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Site, or to products or services sold or distributed by us or through us, will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court, with the following exceptions:

• You may assert claims in small claims court if your claims apply;
  • If a claim involves the conditional license granted to you as described in the Ownership of Content and Grant of Conditional License section above, either of us may file a lawsuit in a court located within Toronto, Ontario (or Quebec, Montreal for Quebec users), and we both consent to the jurisdiction of that court for such purposes; and
  • In the event that the arbitration agreement in these Terms is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against us may be commenced only in a court located within Ontario, Toronto (or Quebec, Montreal for Quebec users), and we both consent to the jurisdiction of that court for such purposes.

The arbitration agreement in these Terms is governed by the Canada Commercial Arbitration Act (CAA), including its procedural provisions, in all respects. This means that the CAA governs, among other things, the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement and all of its provisions, including, without limitation, the class action waiver discussed below.

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to: Live Nation Entertainment, Inc., 123 Front Street West, Suite 1100, Toronto, ON M5J 2M2, Attn: Legal. You may download the forms located at http://www.jamsadr.com. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures or, if applicable, its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, and any applicable supplemental rules including its Consumer Arbitration Standards of Minimum Fairness. The JAMS Rules are available online at http://www.jamsadr.com or by calling (416) 861-1084. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by JAMS’s rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous, but in no event will we pay for attorneys’ fees. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location.

We each agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. You agree to waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action.If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration section will be null and void and neither of us will be entitled to arbitrate our dispute.

You agree that these Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with Ontario law to the fullest extent possible.
