15.1. What the heck is arbitration? (A private dispute resolution method. No courtrooms or juries.)
Arbitration is an alternative dispute resolution process in which the parties agree to have their disputes decided by a neutral third party and not by a sitting judge or jury. Arbitration allows parties to resolve their disputes privately and without the formality of going to court. Arbitration follows different procedural rules than a court would, and is subject to very limited review by courts.
15.2. Will arbitration allow for the same type of relief as a court? (Yes.)
The arbitrator shall have the power to award any type of legal or equitable relief that would be available in a court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s decision (called an “Award”) will consist of a written statement stating the disposition of each claim and provide a concise written statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which the Award is based. The Award will be final and binding upon the parties, may be confirmed by a court of competent jurisdiction, and then enforced like any other court order or judgment.
15.3. What claims are we agreeing to submit to arbitration? (Almost everything.)
Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Riot Services shall be resolved exclusively by private, binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that qualifying small claims may be submitted in small claims court and either party may seek emergency, provisional relief before the appointment of an arbitrator as specified in Section 15.9, below. This means that, except for qualifying small claims actions and emergency situations covered by Section 15.9 below, you and Riot Games are waiving our right to bring such claims to court, including the right to a jury trial.
15.4. Can I bring a class or collective action claim? (No. Sorry for more lawyer-shouting, but this is very important.)
YOU AND RIOT GAMES AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND RIOT GAMES AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S).
15.5. What issues will the arbitrator decide? (Pretty much everything.)
The arbitrator shall decide all issues in dispute between you and Riot Games; except, however, that a court, and not the arbitrator, shall decide any issues relating to the scope or enforceability of this agreement to arbitrate.
15.6. Who will administer the arbitration? (JAMS, using its “Comprehensive Arbitration Rules.”)
The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. A sole arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to these rules. Judgment on the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
15.7. What law applies if we get into a dispute? (The Federal Arbitration Act and California state law.)
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to the enforcement of this arbitration agreement. California law, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules, applies for deciding all other claims and issues, including the interpretation of this Agreement.
15.8. How does arbitration get started? (One of us sends the other one and JAMS a written notification describing the situation and relief sought.)
Either party may commence an arbitration proceeding. The party commencing the arbitration is called the “claimant.” To start the arbitration, the claimant must send JAMS a “Demand for Arbitration.” JAMS has created a form for this purpose, entitled “Demand for Arbitration,” which is available on its website. In addition to sending this form to JAMS and paying a filing fee, the claimant must mail a copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the opposing party, called the “respondent.”In the event you initiate arbitration against Riot Games, you must send a copy to Riot Games at the following address: Riot Games, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 12333 W. Olympic Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90064.In the event Riot Games initiates arbitration against you, we will send a copy of the completed form to the physical address we have on file associated with your account, if any, or if we don’t have a physical address for you, then to the email address associated with your account.
15.9. What if there’s an emergency before the arbitration gets started? (Then either party may go to court for the limited purpose of seeking a “provisional” remedy.)
Either party may seek emergency provisional remedies, including injunctive or similar relief, pursuant to the JAMS rules or from a court of competent jurisdiction located in Los Angeles County, California, where necessary to protect that party’s rights and interests pending the appointment of an arbitrator.
15.10. Who’s gonna pay for the arbitration? (We pay more than you because we’re a business and you’re a consumer, but you do have to pay a filing fee if you initiate.)
If you initiate the arbitration, you must pay the JAMS filing fee required for consumer arbitrations. Payment of all other fees will be governed by JAMS’ rules and procedures governing consumer arbitrations. Riot Games will have to pay more fees than you because Riot Games is a business and you are a consumer, but you will still have to pay some (e.g., an initial filing fee roughly equivalent to what it would cost to file a complaint in court).
15.11. Where will the arbitration take place? (Over the phone, in writing, or in your hometown—your choice.)
You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, in person in the county where you live, or at another mutually agreed location.
15.12. Can either of us tell our friends and Twitter followers about the arbitration? (Nope.)
You and Riot Games agree that any dispute, claim or controversy that has been submitted to arbitration, and all related proceedings including any settlement agreement, shall be kept confidential. However, the prevailing party in any arbitration may file the arbitration Award with any court of competent jurisdiction in order to have that Award confirmed in a court order or judgment.
15.13. What if part of this agreement isn’t enforceable? (The rest stays—we keep as much of it as can be enforced under the law.)
You and Riot Games agree that if any part of this arbitration agreement is declared unenforceable, that part shall be severed and the remainder of this arbitration agreement shall be given full force and effect. However, if Section 15.4, above (entitled, “Can I bring a class action claim?”), or any part thereof is found to be unenforceable, then this entire arbitration agreement (i.e., all of Section 15) shall be severed from the Agreement and all claims between you and Riot Games shall be exclusively decided by a court located in Los Angeles County, California as set forth in Section 15.14, below.
15.14. If we do end up in court for some reason, can either of us pick a court location other than Los Angeles to file the lawsuit? (No.)
In the event that either you or Riot Games commence a court action, any such action shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you and Riot Games both submit to personal jurisdiction there.
