In such case, you agree to reimburse Kitkoo for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules.

You agree that any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the Dispute between us and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (i) no arbitration or proceeding shall be joined with any other; (ii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated or resolved on a class action-basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (iii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall supersede or invalidate any other agreement to arbitrate that you have entered into with Kitkoo.
