18.  No Advice

The Materials are for informational purposes only. No Material is intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on the Service. If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your doctor or 911 immediately.

20.  General

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and MedicareMall regarding your use of the Service. Except as expressly permitted above, these Terms may be amended only by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of all parties to these Terms. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms at any time without notice or consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect. Upon termination of these Terms, Sections 2, 4, and 6 through 22, along with the Privacy Policy and any other accompanying agreements, will survive.

21.  Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

  • Generally.  In the interest of resolving disputes between you and MedicareMall in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and MedicareMall agree that any dispute arising out of or in any way related to these Terms or your use of the Service will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or in any way related to these Terms or your use of the Service, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND MEDICAREMALL ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
  • Exceptions.  Despite the provisions of Section 21.1 above, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim (including any claim based on the unauthorized use of the Service).
  • Arbitrator.  Any arbitration between you and MedicareMall will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting MedicareMall. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
  • Notice; Process.  A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by U.S. Mail or electronic mail (“Notice”). MedicareMall’s address for Notice is: PO Box 1732, San Marcos, TX 78667-1732  or support@medicaremall.com. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or MedicareMall may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or MedicareMall must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, MedicareMall will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by MedicareMall in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
  • Fees.  If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, MedicareMall will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $15,000 or as set forth below, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Hays County, Texas, but if the claim is for $15,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse MedicareMall for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
  • No Class Actions.  YOU AND MEDICAREMALL AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and MedicareMall agree otherwise, 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.
  • Modifications to this Arbitration  Provision.  If MedicareMall makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to MedicareMall’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to MedicareMall’s address for Notice, in which case this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected, will continue to govern any disputes between you and MedicareMall.
  • Enforceability.  If Section 21.6 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 21 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 21 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 19 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of the Service.
  • Opt Out.  Arbitration is not a mandatory condition of these Terms. If you do not want to be subject to this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision, you may opt out of this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision by notifying MedicareMall in writing of your decision, either by sending, within thirty (30) days of the date you accept these Terms, (1) an electronic message to support@medicaremall.com, stating clearly your name and intent to opt out of the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision or (2) a letter sent by overnight mail by any nationally recognized delivery service (e.g, UPS, Federal Express, etc.), or by hand delivery to: Legal Department, 125 Moore St, Ste 107, San Marcos, TX 78667-1732. In order to be effective, the letter under option (2) must clearly indicate your intent to opt out of this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision, and must be dated and signed. If emailed or hand delivered, the signed letter must be received within thirty (30) days of your acceptance of these Terms. If sent by overnight delivery service, the letter must be submitted for delivery to the delivery service within thirty (30) days from the date you accept these Terms. Should you choose not to opt out of this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision within the 30-day period, you and MedicareMall will be bound by the terms of this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision. You have the right to consult with counsel of your choice concerning this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision. You understand that you will not be subject to retaliation if you exercise your right to opt out of coverage under this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration provision.
