LEGAL PROVISIONS You must read and agree to these terms before accessing products or continuing on the site. 1. Binding Arbitration Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to your access to or use of this website, the purchase or use of any products, or any agreement with IA RESEARCH CHEMS LLC (the "Company") shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. Either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court for intellectual property misuse or unlawful use of the products. Arbitration will be conducted on an individual basis under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute regarding the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement. The Company will cover arbitration filing fees exceeding what you would pay to file a comparable civil action in state court. By proceeding, you knowingly and voluntarily waive your right to a trial by judge or jury. 2. Class Action Waiver To the fullest extent permitted by law, any dispute must be brought solely in your individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action, collective action, representative action, or private attorney general action. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over any class, collective, or representative proceeding. 3. Governing Law and Venue These Terms are governed exclusively by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any claim not subject to arbitration must be brought exclusively in state or federal courts located in the Commonwealth of Virginia. You irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts. 4.
