The arbitration will occur in San Francisco, California, but the parties may choose to appear by person, by phone, by another virtual means, or through the submission of documents. 

The arbitrator will issue a ruling in writing.  Any issue concerning the extent to which any dispute is subject to arbitration, the applicability, interpretation, or enforceability of this agreement will be resolved by the arbitrator.  To the extent state law is applicable, the arbitrator will apply the substantive law of California. 

All aspects of the arbitration will be treated as confidential and neither the parties nor the arbitrators may disclose the content or results of the arbitration, except as necessary to comply with legal or regulatory requirements.  The result of the arbitration will be binding on the parties and judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  The arbitrator will award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the arbitration.
