You and EquilibriOm by GB agree that the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The Arbitrator shall also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether the Terms are unconscionable or illusory and any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, or estoppel.

Class Action Waiver

You acknowledge and agree that you and EquilibriOm by GB are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding.
