Payments for items through IRN Sites or for our Services are done through third-party platforms, which allow you to use a credit or debit card for purchases.

In the event your payment is returned for any reason, you will automatically be charged any bank fee or third-party payment processor fee imposed on IRN, in addition to our own processing fee, as determined by IRN. If this occurs, we retain the right to collect any current and past due balances at any time after the returned payment.

IRN may terminate these Terms of Service or any usernames or passwords, at any time, in its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason. 

 

13. Governing Law; Venue

14. Dispute Resolution

IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND IRN (INCLUDING ANY DISPUTE OVER THE VALIDITY, ENFORCEABILITY, OR SCOPE OF THIS DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISION), OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND DISPUTES THAT QUALIFY FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT, THE DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement.

The Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) and AAA Rules shall preempt all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA and AAA Rules are found to not apply to any issue that arises under these Terms of Service or the enforcement thereof, then that issue shall be resolved under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

15. CLASS ACTION WAIVER

YOU AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS TO ARBITRATE, LITIGATE OR OTHERWISE RESOLVE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS, CONSOLIDATION OF YOUR DISPUTE WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS, OR ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH EITHER PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ARE NOT PERMITTED AND ARE WAIVED BY YOU, AND AN ARBITRATOR WILL HAVE NO JURISDICTION TO HEAR SUCH CLAIMS. IF A COURT OR ARBITRATOR FINDS THAT THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN THIS SECTION IS UNENFORCEABLE AS TO ALL OR SOME PARTS OF A DISPUTE, THEN THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER WILL NOT APPLY TO THOSE PARTS. INSTEAD, THOSE PARTS WILL BE SEVERED AND PROCEED IN A COURT OF LAW, WITH THE REMAINING PARTS PROCEEDING IN ARBITRATION.
