What is arbitration?
Arbitration is a private dispute resolution process where parties agree to have their case heard by a qualified arbitrator instead of going to court. As a condition to using many services (such as TikTok), consumers like you oftentimes consent to arbitration in the event of injury as outlined in the terms of service you accepted when using the application.
What are the benefits of arbitration?
Arbitration is designed to be faster and less burdensome than going to court. Studies have shown that individuals who bring claims in arbitration may achieve greater monetary results than if they had litigated their claims in court.
