Disputes
READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND IMPACTS HOW CLAIMS YOU AND COMPANY MAY HAVE AGAINST EACH OTHER ARE DETERMINED.
Agreement to Arbitrate
You and Company agree that any claim, controversy or dispute at law or equity arising out of or otherwise relating in any way to the subject matter of these Terms (or any prior version thereof) or to the Services, your use of the Websites, or to any products or services sold or distributed by us or through the Websites, including but not limited to federal, and state statutory claims, common law claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation, or other legal theories, shall be finally resolved, on an individual basis, by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify and the case proceeds as an individual (non-class, non-representative) case. Any arbitration shall be conducted (i) confidentially, (ii) in English, (iii) in New York, NY, (iv) by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”), (v) before a single arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes. The Federal Arbitration Act applies to this agreement.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow these Terms.
Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction.
Any dispute over the arbitrability of these Terms and/or the arbitrability of any dispute shall be resolved in arbitration in accordance with this provision.
You agree that you are electing to have any and all claims and disputes between you and the Company resolved by binding arbitration and are giving up any rights to go to court, except as expressly provided herein. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.
Prohibition of Class, Representative, and Consolidated Actions
You and Company agree that each of us may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action. Unless both you and Company agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not join more than one party’s claims, and may not adjudicate or determine any form of a representative, class, or consolidated proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party bringing the claim, if such relief is warranted by the facts and law. Any relief awarded by the arbitrator will not affect other Company customers.
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration both you and Company each waive any right to a jury trial. You and Company also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms of Use (and any prior versions hereof), as well as your use of the Websites, the Services, and the sale or distribution of any products or services by the Company or through the Websites, shall be governed by and construed in accordance the laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of law.
Unless you and we agree otherwise, in the event that the Agreement to Arbitrate above is found not to apply to you or to a particular claim or dispute, any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms of Use, your use of the Websites or the Services, and the sale or distribution of any products or services by Company or through the Websites, such controversy, claim or dispute shall be instituted exclusively in the federal or state courts located in New York County, State of New York. You agree to waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.
Severability
If any portion of these Terms of Use is unlawful, void or unenforceable or invalid under any rule, law or regulation of any local, state or federal government, such provisions will be limited, changed or eliminated only to the minimum extent necessary to accomplish the objectives of the provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and these Terms shall otherwise remain valid, in full force, and enforceable.
Entire Agreement
These Terms of Use, including the Privacy Policy, the Return Policy, and all Additional Terms, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof, including the Services and the Websites. These Terms supersede all prior and contemporaneous negotiations, agreements, proposals, communications and understandings both written and oral relating to the subject matter of these Terms.
