Throughout the Site, the terms “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Company. Company offers this Site, including all information, tools and services available on this Site, to you, the user, conditioned upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use. Your continued use of this Site constitutes your agreement to these Terms of Use. If you do not wish to be bound by these Terms of Use, please do not use this Site.
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THESE TERMS OF USE, ALONG WITH THE PRIVACY POLICY AND OTHER POLICIES OR AGREEMENTS REFERENCED IN THESE TERMS OF USE, BEFORE USING THE SITE. BY USING THE SITE, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER DESCRIBED IN THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION SECTION BELOW.
Voluntary Participation
Your use of the Site is voluntary. It is your choice whether to participate or not. You may terminate your use at any time and for any reason. If for any reason you believe that your use is anything but voluntary, please terminate all use of the Site.
Data integrity
You represent that all of the information, data and other materials you provide on this Site or to Company through any other means are true, accurate, current and complete. You are responsible for updating and correcting the information you have provided on this Site, as appropriate.
Privacy Policy
A copy of the Privacy Policy that applies to the collection, use, disclosure and other processing of personal information on this Site is located at Company Privacy Policy. You consent to any personal information we obtain about you (either via this Site, by email, telephone or any other means) being collected, stored and otherwise processed.
Purchases
Order Processing
Company may, in its sole discretion, choose to not process or to cancel your order in certain circumstances. This may occur, for example, when the product or service you wish to purchase is out of stock or has been mispriced, we suspect the request is fraudulent, or in other circumstances Company deems appropriate in its sole discretion. Company also reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to take steps to verify your identity to process your order. Company will either not charge you or refund the charges for orders that we do not process or cancel. Without limiting the foregoing, Company reserves the right to: (i) revoke any stated offer; (ii) correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omission; and (iii) make changes to prices, content, promotion offers, product descriptions or specifications, or other information without obligation to issue any notice of such changes (including after an order has been submitted, acknowledged, shipped, or received, except as prohibited by law).Product and Service Descriptions
Company attempts to provide accurate descriptions of products and services on the Company Sites. Company does not warrant, however, that the descriptions are accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. If a product or service offered on the Company Sites is not as described, your sole remedy is to return the item, as specified in these Terms of Membership.
The Company Sites may offer a quick view type feature for various products. This feature allows you to view price information about the product and add the product to your cart without opening the product page. The quick view feature and this "add to cart" feature are offered for your convenience only. The product page is where you will find more detailed information about a product, its source, features and pricing.
Pricing Information
Company strives to provide accurate pricing information regarding the products and services available on the Company Sites. We cannot, however, insure against pricing errors. Company reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to not process or to cancel any orders placed for a product or service whose price was incorrectly posted on the site as a result of an error. If this occurs, Company will notify you by email. In addition, Company reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to correct any error in the stated full retail price.
Charges and Billing
You must provide a valid credit card number when you order a product or service from the Site. You represent and warrant that you are authorized to use such credit card, and you agree to pay all charges incurred using your account. You agree that we may pass your credit card information and related personally identifiable information to our designated service provider(s) for their use in charging you for the products or services ordered by you. All charges are exclusive of sales and other taxes and you are responsible for payment of any applicable taxes (other than taxes on Company income). We reserve the right to accept or reject orders for any reason. Price and availability of any service are subject to change without notice.
Duties, Taxes, and other state-related costs are borne by the customer at the point of receiving goods.
Product and Service Availability
The Company Sites may contain information regarding the availability of merchandise. This information can be used to estimate the likelihood that an item will be shipped immediately after you place your order. Unfortunately, Company cannot guarantee that an item listed as “in stock” will actually ship right away, as inventory can change significantly from day-to-day. In rare cases, a product or service offering may be in stock when a customer places the order, and sold out by the time Company attempts to process the order. Should this happen, Company will notify you by email. Service offerings that are out-of-stock generally are no longer available. If Company determines that a product or service you wish to purchase is no longer available, the item will be cancelled from your order. Company will notify you by email and delete the item from the Company Sites.

Force Majeure

Risk of Loss
The items purchased through the Site are shipped by a third party carrier pursuant to a shipment contract. As a result, risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.
Dispute Resolution
By using the Site in any way, you unconditionally consent and agree that: (1) any claim, dispute, or controversy (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) you may have against Company, or any of its officers, directors and employees, arising out of, relating to, or connected in any way with the Site or the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS and conducted before a sole arbitrator in accordance with the rules of JAMS; (2) this arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16; (3) the arbitration shall be held in New York, New York; (4) the arbitrator's decision shall be controlled by these Company Terms of Use and any of the other agreements referenced herein that the applicable user may have entered into in connection with the Site; (5) the arbitrator shall apply New York law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law; (6) there shall be no authority for any claims to be arbitrated on a class or representative basis, arbitration can decide only your and/or the applicable Company, or any of its officers', directors', and employees', individual claims; the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated; (7) the arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive damages against you or Company, or any of its officers, directors, and employees; (8) in the event that the administrative fees and deposits that must be paid to initiate arbitration against Company or any of its officers, directors and employees, exceed $125 USD, and you are unable (or not required under the rules of JAMS) to pay any fees and deposits that exceed this amount, Company agrees to pay them and/or forward them on your behalf, subject to ultimate allocation by the arbitrator. In addition, if you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Company will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive; and (9) with the exception of subpart (6) above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the rules of JAMS, then the balance of this Dispute Resolution provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, subpart (6) is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this Arbitration Provision shall be null and void, and neither you nor Company shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute. For more information on JAMS and/or the rules of JAMS, visit their website at www.jamsadr.com. THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN JAMS RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR COMPANY WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
General
From time to time, Company may offer special promotional offers that may or may not apply to your Company account. You agree to be bound by any additional terms and conditions for these special offers.
If any of the provisions set forth in these Terms of Use are deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, the parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the unenforceable condition shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions of these Terms of Use. Section headings are for reference purposes only and do not limit the scope or extent of such section. These Terms of Use and the relationship between you and Company will be governed by the laws of the State of New York, to the extent not preempted by or inconsistent with federal law, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. For any actions not subject to arbitration, we each agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in New York County, New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
The failure of Company to act with respect to a breach of these Terms of Use or the Terms of Membership by you or others does not waive Company’s right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. If any content on this Site, or your use of the Site, is contrary to the laws of the place where you are when you access it, the Site is not intended for you, and we ask you not to use the Site.

Assignment

Any attempted assignment that does not comply with these Terms of Use shall be null and void. Company may assign these Terms of Use, in whole or in part, to any third party in its sole discretion.
