ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Binding arbitration removes access to courts for most disputes, and the small claims court carve-out is expressly unavailable to users who are Members.

Interpretive note: The excerpt is truncated after item (a), suggesting additional exceptions exist that are not visible in the quoted language. Only the quoted content has been analyzed.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users must resolve disputes through binding arbitration; non-Member users may alternatively use small claims court, but Members may not.
