If a dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement or its breach (with the exception of rights to injunctive relief with respect to Intellectual Property Rights and obligations with respect to confidentiality), and the parties have not been successful in resolving the dispute through direct negotiation, then the dispute shall be resolved in binding arbitration as follows: (i) the arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules; (ii) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction; (iii) the location of the arbitration shall be Centreville, Virginia, USA or such other location as the parties may mutually agree; and (iv) the parties shall have the right to take discovery of the other party by any method allowed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

Subject to the terms of Section 9 of this Agreement and FreeEats's other operating rules and policies, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and FreeEats with respect to the subject matter addressed herein, and governs your use of the Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and FreeEats relating to such subject matter, but this Agreement may be supplemented by any other agreement you enter into with FreeEats pursuant a registration to access certain features of the Site. The failure of FreeEats to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
