Mobile Device and Mobile App Store Terms & Third-Party Restrictions. If you access our Services on mobile devices or via any Mobile App, you understand that your mobile carrier’s standard charges will apply. When you download our Mobile App, you will also be subject to any terms imposed by the “store” through which you obtain the Mobile App, if any (e.g. the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, or others). Any Mobile App installed from the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or other app “store” must be installed on a device you control or own, and must be used in accordance with any applicable terms from the Apple App Store or other store. The following terms are required by Apple and are applicable if you install our Mobile App from the Apple App Store:
Your license to the Mobile App is a non-transferable license to use the Mobile App Application on any Apple-branded Products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the Mobile App may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with the purchaser via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
Further, as between Apple and AAC, AAC—and not Apple—is responsible for:
- The content in the Mobile App;
- Maintenance or support with respect to the Mobile App;
- Any product warranties, whether express or implied, provided that, in the event of any failure of the Mobile App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Mobile App (if any); and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Mobile App, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be AAC’s sole responsibility;
- Addressing any claims of the enduser or any third party relating to the Mobile App or the end-user’s possession and/or use of that Licensed Application, including, but not limited to: (a) product liability claims; (b) any claim that the Mobile App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (c) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation; and
- The investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any thirdparty claim that the Mobile App or your possession and use of that Mobile App infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights.
Further, if you install our Mobile App from the Apple App Store, you acknowledge that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these User Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of these User Terms, Apple will have the right (and you will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these User Terms against you as a third party beneficiary thereof.

You further represent and warrant that you are not (i) identified in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control’s (“OFAC”) list of Specially Designated Nationals, (ii) accessing the Services from a jurisdiction subject to an OFAC embargo or sanctions program, or (iii) using the Services in any way that would cause us or you to be in violation of a U.S. sanctions program, embargo, trade restriction, or anti-terrorism law.

Arbitration of Claims
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. WE WANT YOU TO KNOW HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. IN ARBITRATION THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY AND THERE IS LESS DISCOVERY AND APPELLATE REVIEW THAN IN COURT.
At AAC, we expect that our world-class customer service team will be able to resolve most issues you may have using the Services. You can find frequently asked questions on the Site at https://www.americanairlinescenter.com/plan-your-visit/arena-faq or contact our customer service team by visiting our Contact page at https://www.americanairlinescenter.com/connect-with-us/contactus. In the unlikely event that an issue remains unresolved, we prefer to specify now what each of us should expect in order to avoid any confusion later. Accordingly, you and AAC agree to the following resolution process for any type of unresolved matter, issue, dispute, controversy, cause of action, and/or legal claim that either of us may have in any way arising from, relating to, or in connection with these User Terms (including formation, validity, performance, breach, and enforceability thereof), our relationship with each other, or the use of any of the Services (each, a “Dispute”).
In an attempt to find the quickest and most efficient resolution of any Dispute, you and AAC agree to first discuss the Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days. To do that, you must first send your full name and contact information, your concern, and your proposed solution by mail to us at American Airlines Center, 2500 Victory Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75219, Attention: General Counsel or via email to legal@aacntr.com. If we would like to initiate discussions about the Dispute with you, we will contact you using the email address you provided.
If we do not reach an agreed-upon solution after our discussions during the aforementioned period of at least thirty (30) days, you and AAC agree that any Dispute must be exclusively resolved through mandatory, confidential, final, and binding arbitration before one (1) arbitrator of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) using its Consumer Arbitration Rules, available at www.adr.org. Upon your written request, as an exception to this arbitration agreement, AAC may give you the right to pursue in small claims court any claim that is within that court’s jurisdiction as long as you proceed only on an individual basis.
To help resolve any Disputes between us promptly and directly, you and AAC agree to begin any arbitration within one (1) year after the Dispute first arises; otherwise, notwithstanding any other provision of these Use Terms, the claim is waived.
The arbitrator may award relief, including, but not limited to, monetary, declaratory, injunctive, or other equitable 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. The arbitrator must follow these User Terms, apply Texas substantive law (regardless of where you reside), and can award the same individualized damages and relief as a court, including injunctive or other equitable relief necessary to provide relief as to the individualized claim. The arbitrator shall apply the cost-shifting provisions of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 after entry of an award. Unless you and we otherwise agree, one person’s claims may not be consolidated with those of any other person. If a court determines that a claim or request for public injunctive relief may not be waived and all appeals from that decision have been exhausted (or it is otherwise final), you and we agree that any claim or request for public injunctive relief shall be stayed and resolved by a court pending arbitration of the remaining claims and requests for relief.
The decision of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall set forth the essential findings of fact and legal analysis. A judgment to enforce the award may be entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, however, any award that has been satisfied may not be filed or entered in court. The decision of the arbitrator shall have no preclusive effect in any proceeding involving non-identical parties.
Each party reserves the right to request a telephonic, video, or in-person hearing from the arbitrator. You and our representative shall personally appear at any hearing ordered by the arbitrator (along with your and our counsel, if represented). For claims of more than $25,000 (and for claims seeking individualized injunctive, equitable, or declaratory relief that are not subject to small claims court as set forth above), a telephone, virtual, or in-person hearing shall be held and you and our representative shall personally appear (along with your and our counsel, if represented). The parties can agree to waive a hearing.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER. YOU AND AAC ALSO AGREE TO ARBITRATE IN EACH OF OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY, NOT AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF A CLASS, AND EACH OF US EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS. FOR CLARITY, ANY PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. CLASS OR MASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS, CONSOLIDATION OF YOUR DISPUTE WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS, OR ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH EITHER PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ARE NOT PERMITTED AND ARE WAIVED BY YOU, AND AN ARBITRATOR WILL HAVE NO JURISDICTION TO HEAR SUCH CLAIMS. IF A COURT OR ARBITRATOR FINDS THAT THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN THIS SECTION IS UNENFORCEABLE AS TO ALL OR SOME PARTS OF A DISPUTE, THEN THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER WILL NOT APPLY TO THOSE PARTS. INSTEAD, THOSE PARTS WILL BE SEVERED AND PROCEED IN A COURT OF LAW, WITH THE REMAINING PARTS PROCEEDING IN ARBITRATION. IF ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS DISPUTE RESOLUTION SECTION IS FOUND TO BE ILLEGAL OR UNENFORCEABLE, THAT PROVISION WILL BE SEVERED WITH THE REMAINDER OF THIS SECTION REMAINING IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT.
Any arbitration hearings will be held in Dallas, Texas.
You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org. If you initiate the arbitration, your arbitration fees will be limited to the filing fee set forth in the AAA’s Consumer Rules. Regardless of who initiates the arbitration, AAC will pay any other arbitration fees, including your share of arbitrator compensation.
It is important that you understand that the arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND WE WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A COURT AND/OR JURY TRIAL.
If you’re not sure what all of this means, please consult an attorney.
Specifying what happens if an issue arises with one of our users is never a fun topic. But we pride ourselves on transparency and we thank you in advance for understanding why it’s important that you and AAC agree on the process described in this Section.
You may opt out of this provision by, within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Services, mailing to us at American Airlines Center, 2500 Victory Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75219, Attention: General Counsel or emailing us at legal@aacntr.com a personally signed notification that you are opting out. This notification must reference and/or be from the email address associated with your account, contain your name, the phone number associated with your account, and the city in which you reside. However, if you opt out of this arbitration provision (i) you will remain and continue to be bound by and subject to any prior agreement to arbitrate disputes arising out of or related to your use of the Services that existed at the time of your receipt of these User Terms (and that existing arbitration agreement will remain in full force and effect), and (ii) you must immediately discontinue any access to or use of any of the Services. THIS CLAUSE IS GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.
