We will attempt to resolve the dispute through good-faith negotiations within a reasonable time period.

If the dispute cannot be resolved through informal negotiations within sixty days, either party may initiate formal legal proceedings. You agree to pursue any legal claims individually and not as part of any class action or representative proceeding.
