VI. Arbitration

Please review this Arbitration provision carefully. It provides that any dispute may be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration replaces the right to go to court and the right to have a jury decide a dispute. Under this provision, your rights may be substantially limited in the event of a dispute. You may opt out of this Arbitration provision by following the instructions below.

Any provision not in conformity with the law of any state or governing body having jurisdiction is hereby severed from this contract and the remaining provisions remain enforceable. Applicant agrees that any dispute regarding this Agreement will first be tendered by the parties to a member of The American Arbitration Association for resolution prior to the filing of any lawsuit. Applicant also agrees, failing a successful arbitration effort, any suit to be tendered will be filed in and under the laws of the State of Hawaii.

By accepting these Terms, unless you opt out by following the instructions below, you agree that either you or YRH, at YRH’s sole discretion, can choose to have any dispute arising out of or relating to these Student Terms, including, without limitation, YRH programs, benefits, Activities, these Student Terms, transactions, your YRH account(s) or your relationship with YRH, resolved by confidential, binding arbitration. If arbitration is chosen by any party, neither you nor YRH will have the right to litigate that dispute in court or to have a jury trial on that dispute. Pre-arbitration discovery will be permitted only as allowed by the arbitration rules. In addition, you will not have the right to participate as a representative or member of any class of claimants pertaining to any dispute subject to arbitration. The arbitrator's decision will generally be final and binding. Other rights that you would have in court may also not be available in arbitration. It is important that you read the entire Arbitration provision carefully before accepting the terms of this Arbitration provision.

For purposes of this Arbitration provision, “dispute” shall be construed as broadly as possible, and shall include any claim, dispute or controversy (whether in contract, regulatory, tort or otherwise, whether pre-existing, present or future and including constitutional, statutory, common law, intentional tort and equitable claims) arising from or relating to YRH programs, benefits, Activities, these Student Terms, transactions, your YRH account(s) or your relationship with YRH; the actions of yourself, YRH, or third parties; or the validity of these Student Terms or this Arbitration provision. It includes disputes brought as counterclaims, cross claims, or third-party claims. A party that has brought a dispute in a court may elect to arbitrate any other dispute that may be raised in that litigation. Disputes brought as part of a class action or other representative basis are subject to arbitration on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. IF YOU DO NOT OPT OUT, THEN YOU WILL HAVE WAIVED YOUR RIGHT TO INITIATE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. In this Arbitration provision, the words “we,” “us,” and “our” shall include YRH and any assignees of any of YRH’s rights, as well as YRH’s and its assignees’ respective affiliates, parents, subsidiaries, franchisees, vendors, suppliers, and further assigns.

In no event shall YRH have any liability for unauthorized access to, or alteration, theft or destruction of any of a participant’s YRH account(s) through accident, misuse, or fraudulent means or devices by participant or any third party, or as a result of any delay or mistake resulting from any circumstances beyond YRH’s reasonable control.


 
 

VIII. Force Majeure

YRH is not responsible or liable to you, or any person claiming through you, for failure to supply or fulfill any YRH programs, benefits or Activities, including, without limitation, any in-person or virtual Activities, in the event YRH, its vendors or their respective operations are affected by any acts of god, any action, regulation, order, or request by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity, equipment failure, actual threatened terrorist acts, weather, natural phenomenon, war (declared or undeclared), fire, embargo, labor dispute or strike, labor or material shortage, transportation, interruption of any kind, civil disturbance, insurrection, riot, epidemic, pandemic, public health or safety issues or matters, or any laws, rules, regulations or orders or other action adopted or taken by any national, federal, state, provincial, or local government authority, or any other cause, whether or not specifically mentioned above.
