DISPUTE RESOLUTION: MANDATORY CLASS, MASS, COLLECTIVE, AND REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WAIVER
Important: This Section impacts certain legal rights and includes a waiver of the right to participate in any form of class, mass, collective, or representative action, and limits your ability to obtain certain remedies and forms of relief. Please review carefully.
Dispute Resolution. If a disagreement arises between you and EMC, its parents, subsidiaries, or affiliated companies (collectively, “EMC Parties”) regarding any claim or controversy at law or equity arising out of, relating to, or connected in any way with this site (a “Dispute”), prior to initiating any legal action, you must first contact us directly by email at ContactUs@eisenhowerhealth.org.

Nothing in this Section, however, limits your rights to bring a lawsuit as an individual plaintiff.
Time Bar. ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST ANY EMC PARTY MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE FIRST OCCURRENCE OF THE KIND OF ACT, EVENT, CONDITION, OR OMISSION UPON WHICH SUCH CLAIM OR ACTION IS BASED – OR WITHIN THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR SUCH CLAIM – WHICHEVER IS SHORTER.
