Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award.

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THE TERMS, YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
    4. The venue for arbitration shall be Telangana, India and the Arbitration shall be in accordance with the laws of India and the language used for arbitration shall be English.
    5. The award of the arbitration shall be binding on both, you and us.
    6. The suits which are impliedly or specifically barred by this agreement shall be opposed by us by pleading this agreement.
