If an in-person hearing is required, then it will take place in Austin, TX. The federal or state law that applies to these Official Rules will also apply during the arbitration.

Sponsor agrees to pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees in order to conduct the arbitration (but specifically excluding any travel or other costs of entrant to attend the arbitration hearing). Either party may, notwithstanding this provision, bring qualifying claims in small claims court.
