The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
13.4 Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND F FIFTY HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and F Fifty are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 13.1 above. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow this Agreement as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
13.5 Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this subsection’s limitations as to a given claim for relief, then the claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought into the State or Federal Courts located in the State of Minnesota. All other claims shall be arbitrated.
13.6 30-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to: info@ffiftybeauty.com within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your F Fifty username (if any), the email address you used to set up your F Fifty account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of this Agreement will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.
13.7 Severability. Except as provided in subsection 13.5, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
13.8 Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with F Fifty.
13.9 Modification. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if F Fifty makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, you may reject that change within thirty (30) days of such change becoming effective by writing F Fifty at the following address: F Fifty, 2125 Girard Ave S., Minneapolis, Minnesota 55405.

14.7 Where F Fifty requires that you provide an e-mail address, you are responsible for providing F Fifty with your most current e-mail address. In the event that the last e-mail address you provided to F Fifty is not valid, or for any reason is not capable of delivering to you any notices required/permitted by this Agreement, F Fifty’ dispatch of the e-mail containing such notice will nonetheless constitute effective notice. You may give notice to F Fifty to the address above. Such notice shall be deemed given when received by F Fifty by letter delivered by nationally recognized.
14.8 Waiver. No waiver of any provision herein shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of both you and F Fifty. F Fifty’ failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or any right shall not be construed as a waiver of any such provision or right.
14.9 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be automatically reformed and construed so as to be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law or equity while preserving its original intent.
