You and we agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Services or this Statement, shall be determined by binding arbitration or in small claims court.

If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.
