Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 16, any and all issues relating to the scope, interpretation, and enforceability of the class action waiver provisions contained in this Section 16, shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction, and not by the arbitrator.
16.5 Unless you and Doxiva expressly agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in Rochester, New York. In the event the claims or controversies are for $10,000 or less, you agree that Doxiva shall have the right to choose if the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator(s), through a telephonic hearing or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. Without regard to the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the award of the arbitrator(s) will be accompanied with a statement of the reasons upon which the award is based, and you and Doxiva agree that such award shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator shall not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict or clash with the Terms of Service.
