The arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator, seated in Broward County, Florida, and conducted in the English language. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall have authority to grant any remedy available in a court of law or equity, subject to the limitations set forth in these Terms.

23.3 Waiver of Class Proceedings

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all disputes shall be resolved on an individual basis only, and you and the Company each waive any right to participate in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person or entity and may not preside over any form of class or representative proceeding.

23.4 Equitable Relief

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in the state or federal courts located in Broward County, Florida, to prevent or restrain the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its intellectual property or other proprietary rights, pending resolution of the underlying dispute.
