21. Arbitration

This section covers how to settle disagreements between Edukura Pty Ltd and a Tutor, Edukura Pty Ltd and a Student, or Edukura Pty Ltd, a Tutor, and a Student. All disputes must be addressed through mediation rather than the courts. Specifically:

Any disagreement relating to the Site, its usage, User (i.e. Tutor, Student) conduct, or the Terms must be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with the Terms. The Consumer Arbitration Rules of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission in effect at the time you accede to the Terms must be used by the arbitrator. To be clear, this arbitration clause does not apply to conflicts between a Tutor and a Student.

If the Consumer Arbitration Rules and this arbitration provision conflict on something, the terms of this arbitration provision take precedence, unless the arbitrator decides that doing so would result in a fundamentally unfair arbitration proceeding. In that case, the Consumer Arbitration Rules(ACCC) govern. This arbitration clause must be interpreted and enforced in conformity with The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.

For more information prior to Starting the Arbitration Process, against Edukura Pty Ltd please go to Where to go for consumer help on the ACCC site. Once we receive your arbitration claim, we may assert any claims we may have against you.

Choosing an Arbitrator: The arbitration procedure is presided over by an arbitrator, who will issue a decision (sometimes known as an "award") and otherwise conduct the arbitration hearing. Using the ACCC processes, Edukura Pty Ltd and you will try to reach an agreement on a single arbitrator. If agreement cannot be reached, each side shall appoint its own arbiter. Each party's arbitrator will discuss and pick a single arbitrator jointly. The arbitration will be presided over by a single arbiter.

The Arbitrator's Decision: The arbitrator's decision must be based on the facts submitted and in accordance with these Terms and applicable legislation, including legislative and judicial authorities. On an individual basis, the arbitrator may award the same damages and remedies that a court may award to an individual under these Terms and the relevant law. The arbitrator must produce a written decision that includes the important facts and conclusions that support the ruling. The judgement of the arbitrator is final and binding on all parties.

Individual claims only: You and Edukura Pty Ltd agree that we may make claims, suits, actions, or causes of action against each other only on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any putative class, collective, or representative proceeding. However, unless otherwise required by law, a representative claim (but not a class action) may be brought in arbitration. Unless both you and Edukura Pty Ltd agree otherwise, an arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person's or party's claims and may not rule over any sort of consolidated, representative, collective, or group action.

Furthermore, except when required by law, the arbitrator may award remedy (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory remedies) only in favour of the individual party requesting relief and only to the degree required to grant relief demanded by that party's particular claim(s). Except as required by law, any remedy granted cannot have an impact on other Edukura Pty Ltd users.

Arbitration Hearing Location: As part of the arbitration procedure, a hearing may be held. If that is the case, the arbitration hearing will be held in a place that is fairly convenient to all parties, taking their capacity to travel and other relevant factors into account. Any court with jurisdiction over the arbitration award may enter judgement on the award.

Attorneys' Fees: Unless the law stipulates that the successful party is entitled to have the opposing party pay its reasonable attorneys' fees, each party will pay its own attorneys' expenses. You will only be responsible for the arbitration expenses that you would have incurred if you had brought a claim covered by this arbitration clause in court. If you can show the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the expenses of litigation, Edukura Pty Ltd will pay as much of the arbitration fees as the arbitrator considers necessary to keep the arbitration from being prohibitively expensive for you.

Disputes in Administrative Courts Arbitration is not permitted: Regardless of anything in this arbitration provision to the contrary, disputes may be filed before an administrative agency to the degree relevant law needs access to an agency despite the existence of this arbitration provision. Nothing in this arbitration clause: (i) relieves any party of the need to exhaust administrative remedies by filing a charge or complaint with an administrative agency and getting a right to sue notice, unless otherwise required by law; or (ii) precludes either party from collaborating with a federal or state body, unless otherwise required by law. You realise, however, that you are not entitled to a twofold recovery or other monetary advantage as a result of any administrative agency action, except as required by law.

Judicial Forum Exclusive If the Arbitration Provisions are Unenforceable: If a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction rules that this arbitration provision is unenforceable, you agree that the exclusive forum and/or venue for any dispute arising from the use, inability to use, or provision of these Terms will be any State Court or Federal Court sitting in in the state of Victoria, Australia. You hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts in any such process and agree not to seek transfer of the matter to a different court for any reason.

22. Injunction

Regardless of the Arbitration terms set forth herein, Users agree that any material breach of the Terms will cause Edukura Pty Ltd irreparable harm for which damages would be an inadequate remedy, and Edukura Pty Ltd reserves the right to seek will equitable relief through the court system, including both a preliminary and permanent injunction, if such a breach occurs. If Edukura Pty Ltd pursues such an injunction, you forgo any necessity for the posting of a bond or other security.

23. Notices; modification and termination of services; amendment of terms

Edukura Pty Ltd may provide Users notice by email, normal mail, or by posting notifications or links to notices on the Site. Edukura Pty Ltd retains the right, with or without notice, to modify, suspend, or terminate the services (or any portion thereof), and/or use of or access to them. Edukura Pty Ltd may also remove or restrict access to or use of all relevant data and files. Edukura Pty Ltd will not be responsible to Users or any third party for any service change, suspension, or termination, or for any loss of connected information. Edukura Pty Ltd reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time by publishing the revised terms on this Site.

24. Governing law

This Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the substantive laws of Victoria, Australia, without regard to choice-of-law provisions.

25. Entire agreement

These Terms supersede and cancel all former versions of the Terms and represent the complete agreement between you and Edukura Pty Ltd related to its subject matter. The Terms and any rights granted herein may not be assigned or transferred in any way. You may also be subject to additional terms and conditions while using the Edukura Pty Ltd Site or third-party products or services.
