Notice is deemed given upon receipt by you if sent by electronic mail or conventional mail, or immediately upon posting to this Site.

GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, United States, without regard to its conflicts of law rules. The exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute not covered by the terms of the Arbitration provision set forth in this Agreement or Materials may be filed only in the state or federal courts located in the State of Georgia, United States.

ARBITRATION. Except with respect to any claim or dispute involving the ownership, validity or use of any IHG trademarks or service marks, any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement or Materials (including any claim that any provision of this Agreement or Materials are invalid, illegal, or otherwise voidable or void), seeking as relief money damages and/or attorneys’ fees or other damages will be submitted for arbitration to the American Arbitration Association (AAA). SCH shall have the right in a proper case to obtain temporary restraining orders, temporary or preliminary injunctive relief and/or declaratory relief (other than declarations with respect to the amount of money damages) from a court of competent jurisdiction.

The arbitration proceedings shall be heard by one independent arbitrator who shall be an attorney or retired judge. The arbitration shall be held in Atlanta, Georgia and in accordance with the then-existing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA. All matters within the scope of the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. 1, et seq.) will be governed by it and not by any state arbitration law. You and SCH waive any rights to maintain other available resolution processes for such disputes, such as a court action or administrative proceeding, to settle disputes. You and SCH waive any right to a jury trial for such disputes. The rules in arbitration are different from the rules that apply in court. There is no judge or jury, and review is limited, but an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief, and must honor the same limitations stated in the Agreement, as a court would.

In reaching his or her decision, the arbitrator shall follow this Agreement and Materials, shall be bound to apply the applicable law and shall not rule inconsistently with the applicable law. The arbitration shall be conducted on an individual basis, and not as a consolidated, common, representative, group or class. The arbitrator shall include in his or her award any relief he or she deems proper in terms of money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from the date due at the maximum rate allowed by law), and attorneys’ fees and costs. The award of the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

CONFIDENTIAL. Other than as may be required by law, the entire arbitration proceedings (including, but not limited to, any rulings, decisions or orders of the arbitrator), shall remain confidential and not be disclosed to anyone other than the parties to this Agreement.

LIMITATIONS PERIOD. Any and all claims and actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement or Materials shall be commenced within one (1) year from the occurrence of the facts giving rise to such claim or action, or such claim or action shall be barred. This Limitations Period section does not apply to residents of New Jersey.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER. You agree that you will not file a class action against SCH, or participate in a class action against SCH. You agree that you will not file or seek a class arbitration, or participate in a class arbitration, against SCH.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral and written agreements. No failure or delay on the part of IHG in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or enforcing the terms and conditions of this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof. If any part or provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, unenforceable or void, then the remaining portion shall remain in full force and effect. Headings are for convenience only and not for use in interpretation of this Agreement.
