The only disputes that are not covered by this Section are the following: 1) a claim to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or EA’s (or any of EA’s licensors’) intellectual property rights; 2) a claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, or unauthorized use of intellectual property; 3) if you reside in Australia: a claim to enforce any statutory consumer rights to which you are entitled under the Australian Consumer Law; and 4) in addition, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent either party from initiating a small claims court action.
