Groupon and you specifically disclaim the application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods as that Convention may be incorporated into applicable law.

  43. Dispute Resolution
  44. (a) Binding Arbitration. Except as specifically stated herein, any dispute or claim between you and Bluewaterbay.com arising out of, or relating in any way to, the Terms of Use, the Site or your use of the Site, or any Products, Merchant Offerings or services offered or distributed through the Site (“Disputes”) shall be resolved exclusively by final, binding arbitration; except that you may bring a qualifying claim over a Dispute in a small claims court in Arapahoe County, Colorado. By virtue of this Agreement (defined below), you and Bluewaterbay.com are each giving up the right to go to court and have a Dispute heard by a judge or jury (except as otherwise set forth in this Section 22(a) or Section 22(d)). The provisions of this Section 22 shall constitute your and Bluewaterbay.com' written agreement to arbitrate Disputes under the Federal Arbitration Act (“Agreement”). Any modification to this Agreement shall be in writing and signed by you and Bluewaterbay.com. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and conducted before a single arbitrator pursuant to its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer. The arbitrator will apply and be bound by this Agreement, apply applicable law and the facts, and issue a reasoned award.

    To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must comply with the limitations provision set forth in Section 22(e) and submit the Dispute by utilizing the forms available at http://www.adr.org. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. Bluewaterbay.com will reimburse those fees for Disputes totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the Dispute is frivolous. Likewise, Bluewaterbay.com will not seek attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the Dispute is frivolous. The arbitration will be conducted based upon written submissions unless you request and/or the arbitrator determines that a telephone or in-person hearing is necessary. If the arbitrator grants the request or determines an in-person hearing is necessary, the hearing will proceed in Aurora, Colorado, unless the arbitrator determines or we agree that the matter should proceed in the county in which you reside.

    (b) No Class Action Matters. We each agree that we shall bring any Dispute against the other in our respective individual capacities and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, representative proceeding or as an association. In addition, we each agree that Disputes shall be arbitrated only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. The arbitrator does not have the power to vary these provisions.

    (c) Choice of Law and Forum; No Jury Trial. If for any reason a Dispute proceeds in court: (i) you agree that any such Dispute may only be instituted in a state or federal court in Arapahoe County, Colorado; (ii) you and Bluewaterbay.com irrevocably consent and submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for resolution of such Disputes; (iii) you and Bluewaterbay.com agree that the Federal Arbitration Act, the AAA rules, applicable federal law and the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to principles of conflicts of law, will govern this Agreement and any Disputes; and (iv) you and Bluewaterbay.com agree to waive any right to a trial by jury.

    (d) Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, either party may bring suit in court seeking an injunction or other equitable relief arising out of or relating to the infringement of a party’s intellectual property or any conduct that violates Section 7 (“Your Conduct”) of the Terms of Use.
