Arbitration Procedures

Last Updated: August 18, 2023

The following procedures shall apply to any arbitration between you and 七色视频:

Overview. Arbitration is an alternative to litigation where a neutral person (the arbitrator) hears and decides the parties鈥 dispute. Arbitration proceedings are designed to provide parties with a fair hearing in a manner that is faster and less formal than court proceedings. The following procedures (the 鈥淎rbitration Procedures鈥) are applicable to all arbitration proceedings involving you and 七色视频.

Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution. 七色视频 is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently. So before you commence an arbitration, we suggest that you contact us to explain your complaint, as we may be able to resolve it without the need for arbitration. You may contact us online or at getanswers@kemper.com.

Administrator. The administrator for the arbitration is JAMS, an organization that is not affiliated with 七色视频. JAMS facilitates, but does not itself conduct, the arbitration. The arbitrator who will hear and decide your dispute will be chosen from JAMS鈥檚 roster of neutral arbitrators. For information on JAMS, please visit its website, . Information about JAMS鈥檚 rules and fees for resolving disputes can be found at JAMS鈥檚 Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures page, .

Applicable Rules. The arbitration will be governed by JAMS鈥檚 Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures (the 鈥淛AMS Rules鈥), as modified by these Arbitration Procedures. If there is any inconsistency between the JAMS Rules and these Arbitration Procedures, the Arbitration Procedures will control. However, if the arbitrator determines that strict application of the Arbitration Procedures would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration, the arbitrator may make any order necessary to provide a fundamentally fair arbitration that is consistent with the JAMS Rules.

Commencing an Arbitration. To commence an arbitration against 七色视频, you must complete a short form, submit it to 七色视频, and send a copy to getanswers@kemper.com. To learn more about commencing an arbitration and to obtain a form to institute arbitration, please visit the JAMS website and download the form available at: . You may represent yourself in the arbitration or have a lawyer (or some other representative) act on your behalf. Upon receipt of an arbitration claim, 七色视频 may assert any counterclaims it may have against the complaining party.

Fees. You are responsible for paying your portion of the fees set forth in the JAMS fee schedule. 七色视频 will pay all remaining fees. If your claim against 七色视频 is for less than $1,000, and you succeed on the merits, we will pay all fees. If you believe you cannot afford the JAMS fee, you may apply to JAMS for a fee waiver.

Discovery. Each party may (a) request relevant, non-privileged documents from the other party; and (b) request that the other party provide the particulars of its claims or defenses. Any such discovery requests must be served on the other party within 21 days after the arbitrator鈥檚 appointment. The responding party shall provide the requesting party with all responsive, non-privileged documents, the requested particulars, and/or any objections to the requests within 15 days after receipt of the requests. Any disputes about discovery or requests for extensions shall be submitted promptly to the arbitrator for prompt resolution. In ruling on any discovery dispute or extension request, the arbitrator shall take into consideration the nature, amount, and scope of the underlying arbitration claim, the cost and other effort that would be involved in providing the requested discovery, the case schedule, and whether the requested discovery is necessary for the adequate preparation of a claim or defense.

Communications with the Arbitrator. Whenever communicating with the arbitrator, the parties must include each other 鈥 for example, by including the other party on a telephone conference call and copying the other party on any written submissions, such as letters or emails. To the extent practicable, conferences with the arbitrator will take place by telephone conference call or email. Ex parte communications are not permitted with any arbitrator.

Confidentiality. Upon either party鈥檚 request, the arbitrator will issue an order requiring that confidential information of either party disclosed during the arbitration (whether in documents or orally) may not be used or disclosed except in connection with the arbitration or a proceeding to enforce the arbitration award and that any permitted filing of confidential information must be done under seal.

Arbitration Hearing. The parties agree to waive an oral hearing and submit the dispute to the arbitrator for an award based on written submissions and other evidence as the parties may agree, unless a party requests an oral hearing in writing within 10 days after the arbitrator鈥檚 appointment.

Remedies. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant all relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could order.

Arbitration Award. The arbitrator will render a written decision within 30 days after the hearing or, if no hearing was held, within 14 days after any rebuttal or supplemental statements are due. The decision must clearly specify the relief awarded, if any, and contain a brief statement of the reasons for the award.
