GOVERNING LAW/CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. Any Disputes or actions arising out of, or in any manner affecting the interpretation of, this Agreement, any other service or product, whether under this Agreement or otherwise will be governed solely by, and construed solely in accordance with, the laws of the United States and State of Illinois, excluding (a) conflict of laws principles; (b) the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods; (c) the 1974 Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods; and (d) the Protocol amending the 1974 Convention, done at Vienna April 11, 1980. If for any reason a Dispute proceeds in court rather than in arbitration (as prescribed below), YOU HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF COURTS LOCATED IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS OVER ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR YOUR USE OF THE SITE.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
Dispute Escalation. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, or the breach, termination, or interpretation or validity thereof, or any transaction, communication or actions arising out of your use of the Site or purchase of Products (“Dispute”), will be resolved as follows:
First, to the extent possible, you and we will attempt to resolve the Dispute within forty-five (45) days through discussions held in good faith.
Second, if the Dispute has not been resolved after the 45-day discussion period, then any party who pursues the Dispute shall refer the Dispute or claim to American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Procedures, for mediation in Chicago, Illinois for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days.
Third, if the Dispute is not settled by mediation within the 120-day period, then any party who determines to pursue the Dispute shall refer such Dispute to arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules.
Arbitration.
Disputes submitted to arbitration will be heard by a single arbitrator, unless the claim amount exceeds $250,000, in which case the dispute will be heard by a panel of three arbitrators. The place of arbitration will be Chicago, Illinois. Hearings will take place pursuant to the standard procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules that contemplate in person hearings, though hearings may be conducted virtually with the prior written consent of both parties to this Agreement.
We and you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. An arbitrator can award the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages).
The arbitration and any proceedings conducted hereunder will be governed by the laws of the State of ILLINOIS, Title 9 (Arbitration) of the United States Code and by the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of June 10, 1958. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses and an equal share of the arbitrators' and administrative fees of arbitration. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties.
Notwithstanding any language to the contrary, the parties hereby agree that the arbitrator’s decision will be final and nonappealable. The arbitrator’s decision may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof for enforcement.
Of course, any Dispute may be resolved at any time by a written agreement between the parties.
If, for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we and you each waive any right to a jury trial.

You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Agreement mandatory arbitration by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to: arbitrationoptout@eliaelia.co, within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Agreement mandatory arbitration.
