A Party must not commence arbitration or court proceedings (except proceedings seeking interlocutory relief) relating to a Dispute arising under these Terms unless it has complied with this Section 19.
A Party claiming that a Dispute has arisen under these Terms must give the other Party written notice of the particulars of the Dispute.
In the event of a Dispute, difference or claim between the Parties hereto, arising out of the use of the Website or Platform; or in any way relating to these Terms, or any term, condition or provision herein mentioned or the construction or interpretation thereof or otherwise in relation hereto, the Parties shall first endeavor to settle such difference, dispute, claim or question by mutual discussion, failing which the same shall be referred to the American Arbitration Association, or any statutory modification or re-enactment thereof for the time being in force.

GENERAL PROVISIONS
Force Majeure.

Severability. In the event that any provision of these Terms shall be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law or be so held by any applicable court decision, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not render the remaining provisions of these Terms unenforceable or invalid, and, in such event, such remaining provisions shall be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish the objectives of such unenforceable or invalid provision within the limits of applicable law or applicable court decision(s).
No Waiver. Save for section 4.7 and 6.10, each Party agrees that any delay or omission on the part of the other Party to exercise any right, power or remedy under these Terms will not automatically operate as a waiver of such right, power or remedy or any other right, power or remedy and no waiver will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the waiving Party. Further the waiver or the single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy by either Party hereunder on one occasion will not be construed as a bar to a waiver of any successive or other right, power or remedy on any other occasion.
