ENTIRE AGREEMENT, VENUE AND CHOICE OF LAW

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and WBA governing your use of the site, these Services and the Information.  In the case of inconsistencies between these Terms and any information included in off-line materials (for example, promotional materials and mailers), these Terms will always control. You may also be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use services of other parties affiliated with WBA, third-party content or third-party software.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to choice of law rules. Any claims arising out of or in connection with these Services shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures outlined below in the section entitled DISPUTES WITH WBA. Any claims arising in connection with the use of these Services must be brought within one (1) year of the date of the event giving rise to such action.

If any part of this Agreement is ruled to be unenforceable, then such part shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent necessary. The remainder of the Agreement, including any revised portion, shall remain and be in full force and effect.

The failure of WBA to exercise or enforce any Term will not constitute a waiver of such Term.
Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the Service or these Terms will be filed within one year after such claim or cause of action arose, or be forever barred.

DISPUTES WITH WBA

You and WBA agree that any claim or dispute at law or equity that has arisen or may arise between us will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this section. Please read this Section carefully. It affects your rights and will impact how claims you and we have against each other are resolved.

Contact WBA first. If a dispute arises between you and WBA, our goal is to address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Disputes between you and WBA regarding the site or Services may be reported to Customer Service online at www.walgreens.com, at any time, or by phone at the number listed in the Customer Service section of the site.

Applicable Law. You agree that the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern the Terms and any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and WBA, except as otherwise stated in these Terms.

Agreement to Arbitrate. You and WBA each agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and WBA shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate.

Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief. YOU AND WBA AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WBA AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER WBA USERS.

Arbitration Procedures. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its rules and procedures, including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (as applicable), as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA's website at www.adr.org.

The arbitration shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or WBA may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and WBA subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. Attendance at an in-person hearing may be made by telephone by you and/or WBA, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different WBA users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same WBA user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Costs of Arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, at your request, WBA will pay all filling, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration. Any request for payment of fees by WBA should be submitted by mail to the AAA along with your Demand for Arbitration and WBA will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to the AAA. If the value of the relief sought is more than $10,000 and you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, WBA will pay as much of the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. In the event the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration to be frivolous, you agree to reimburse WBA for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by WBA on your behalf that you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the AAA's rules.

Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in subsection (a) of this Agreement to Arbitrate ("Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief"), if a court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If a court decides that any of the provisions in subsection (a) of this Agreement to Arbitrate ("Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non- Individualized Relief") is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall be null and void. The remainder of these Terms, including all other provisions of this section (Disputes with WBA), will continue to apply.

Opt-Out Procedure. You can choose to reject this Agreement to Arbitrate ("opt out") by mailing us a written opt-out notice ("Opt-Out Notice"). For new WBA users, the Opt-Out Notice must be postmarked no later than 30 Days after the date you are deemed to have accepted the Terms for the first time. You must mail the Opt-Out Notice to Walgreen Co., Attn: Law Department, 104 Wilmot Road, MS 1431, Deerfield, IL 60015.

The Opt-Out Notice must state that you do not agree to this Agreement to Arbitrate and must include your name, address, phone number, and the email address(es) used to log in to the WBA account(s) to which the opt-out applies. You must sign the Opt-Out Notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. If you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, disputes will be adjudicated pursuant to Illinois law exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Illinois, and all other parts of these Terms, including all other provisions of this section, will continue to apply. Opting out of this Agreement to Arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.
