Glass Nickel Pizza Intellectual Property
The Website and Applications contain trademarks, service marks and logos owned and used by Glass Nickel Pizza, its affiliates and franchisees. All applicable national and international laws protect these trademarks and related proprietary property from reproduction and simulation, without the express written permission of Glass Nickel.
The text, graphics and html code contained in the Website and Applications are the exclusive property of Glass Nickel Pizza.

Arbitration
BECAUSE OF THE MUTUAL BENEFITS WHICH PRIVATE BINDING ARBITRATION CAN PROVIDE, BOTH YOU AND GLASS NICKEL PIZZA AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE OR THE APPLICATIONS SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY BY BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT, EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY ASSERT CLAIMS IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT IF YOUR CLAIMS QUALIFY. ALL MATTERS RELATING TO ARBITRATION WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT, 9 U.S.C. SECTIONS 1‐16, AND NOT BY ANY STATE ARBITRATION LAW, AND SHALL BE ARBITRATED IN MADISON, WISCONSIN, PURSUANT TO THE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION.
Nothing herein shall prevent Glass Nickel Pizza from obtaining from a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunctive relief to preserve the status quo or to prevent any irreparable harm pending the arbitration of the underlying claim or controversy.
WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT ON A CLASS-WIDE BASIS. WE ALSO AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION PROCEEDING BETWEEN US MAY NOT BE CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION BETWEEN GLASS NICKEL AND ANY OTHER PERSON. YOU AND GLASS NICKEL PIZZA BOTH UNDERSTAND THAT BY AGREEING TO THIS BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION, BOTH ARE GIVING UP THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY INDIVIDUAL, CLASS-WIDE, OR OTHER CLAIM THAT EITHER MAY HAVE AGAINST THE OTHER, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN.
General
You agree that: (i) the Website and Applications shall be deemed solely based in Wisconsin; and (ii) the Website and Applications shall be deemed passive websites and applications that do not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Glass Nickel, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Wisconsin. These Terms of Use shall be governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin. These Terms of Use, together with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices published by Glass Nickel on the Website or Applications, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and Glass Nickel concerning the Website and Applications. If any provision of these Terms of Use is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use, which shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any term of these Terms of Use shall be deemed a continuing waiver of such term, and the failure by Glass Nickel to assert any right under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right. Glass Nickel may amend these Terms of Use at any time and without notice, and it is your responsibility to review these Terms of Use for any changes. YOU AND GLASS NICKEL AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE WEBSITE AND APPLICATIONS MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OR BE PERMANENTLY BARRED.
