Binding arbitration through ICDR-AAA may be the final resolution mechanism for certain privacy complaints, which could limit a user's ability to pursue other legal remedies.
Interpretive note: The phrase 'under certain conditions' is not defined in the excerpt, so the specific conditions triggering binding arbitration cannot be stated. Confidence is medium because the scope of the arbitration mechanism is partially indeterminate from this excerpt alone.
If your complaint about Coinbase's handling of personal information under the Data Privacy Frameworks is unresolved, it may be referred to ICDR-AAA and result in binding arbitration under certain conditions.
