15.1 The Website and these Terms and Conditions will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Vermont and the federal laws of the United States applicable therein, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision, principle, or rule and notwithstanding your domicile, residence, or physical location.

15.4 Except to the extent restricted by applicable law, if the Dispute is not resolved after twenty (20) business days of a person serving notice on the other party that there is a Dispute, you and us agree that the Dispute will be finally resolved by confidential arbitration before a single arbitrator in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The seat of the arbitration will be Vermont or wherever convenient or necessary acting reasonably. There will be no appeals of any kind.
