This Agreement to Arbitrate will survive the termination of your relationship with us: Unless you and we agree otherwise, if you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, if the Agreement to Arbitrate is found by a court to be unenforceable, if your claim is not covered by the Agreement to Arbitrate, you agree that any Dispute that has arisen, or may arise, between you and us must be resolved exclusively in accordance to the Governing Law and Jurisdiction provision in these terms and conditions.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Agreement to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make a change to this agreement to arbitrate in the future, that change shall not apply to a claim that was filed in a legal proceeding between you and us prior to the effective date of the change.
