A User can appeal a suspension and request that the strike be removed. A LOVB admin will evaluate the appeal and make a determination. In order to appeal, you must contact us at info@lovb.com.
Please note that LOVB reserves the right to permanently ban you at any time for any conduct that we determine to be in appropriate or harmful, and even if you have no strikes, since such conduct clearly violates our Community Guidelines, Privacy Notice and/or Terms of Service.
While your account is suspended, you will not be able to use LOVB in any way. After the suspension is lifted, you will be able to use our Services once again.

Dispute Resolution And Arbitration

By accepting the terms of this Agreement, you understand that LOVB is committed to resolving disputes fairly, efficiently and initially through good faith negotiation.  You may send a written description of your claim to info@lovb.com with “LOVB Notice of Dispute” provided in the subject line. If we are unable to resolve any and all disputes through good faith negotiation within 60 business days after we receive your claim description and you have made a good faith effort to resolve your claim with us during that time, you must then give us an opportunity to resolve your claim through mediation. You and we each agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to begin the mediation within 15 business days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within 30 days of the start of the mediation. The costs of the mediation will be allocated among us as mutually agreed to as part of the mediation.


In the unlikely event that LOVB is unable to resolve your concerns at the completion of the mediation, we each agree to resolve those disputes through binding arbitration, instead of class actions or jury trials. Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state arbitration law. Unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be conducted before one arbitrator in New York,New York, and will be governed by the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes.


To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and LOVB must abide by the following rules: (1) ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR LOVB MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; (2) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF; (3) the arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor LOVB may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award; (4) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and (5) each side pays its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.

29 .

You agree that any dispute arising under or related to this Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws in effect in the State of New York, without regard to its conflicts of law principles.  Notwithstanding the arbitration provisions above, in the event that we elect to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, or there is a dispute that is otherwise not subject to arbitration, you expressly and irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts, as applicable, located in New York, New York, and to the exercise of personal jurisdiction in such courts in connection with any such dispute.
