Dispute Resolution
BY USING THE SERVICES YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT THESE TERMS CONTAIN AN AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BRING A LAWSUIT CONCERNING ANY DISPUTE THAT MAY ARISE WHICH IS COVERED BY THESE TERMS UNLESS IT INVOLVES A QUESTION OF CONSTITUTIONAL OR CIVIL RIGHTS OR ANOTHER EXCEPTION AS PROVIDED FOR BELOW. INSTEAD, YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT ANY SUCH DISPUTE TO AN IMPARTIAL ARBITRATOR.
Our goal is to provide you with great service, so we’ll try our best to resolve any disagreements that you have with us. If we can’t, then you and we both agree to resolve disputes related to your use of the Services or these Terms (each, a “Claim”) in binding arbitration instead of court, except that: (a) a Claim may be brought in small claims court if it qualifies for it, (b) either party may bring suit in court to enjoin the infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights and (c) constitutional or civil rights questions as provided for by law.
What is arbitration? Arbitration does not involve a judge or jury. Instead, a neutral person (the “arbitrator”) hears each party’s side of the dispute and makes a decision that is finally binding on both parties. The arbitrator can award the same relief as a court could award, including monetary damages. While court review of an arbitration award is limited, if a party fails to comply with the arbitrator’s decision, then the other party can have the arbitration decision enforced by a court. If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and we each waive any right to a jury trial.
- Can a Claim be part of a class action or similar proceeding? No. You agree to resolve your Claims with us solely on an individual basis, and not as part of a class, representative or consolidated action. We agree to do the same.
- What rules apply in the arbitration? The arbitration will be conducted under the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) applying Idaho law as appropriate. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.
- How will the arbitration be conducted? The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA or a comparable arbitration body in the event the AAA is unable to conduct the arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
- How do I start an arbitration proceeding? To begin an arbitration proceeding against us, send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your Claim to hello@stacyennis.com. If we request arbitration against you, we will give you notice at the email address or street address you provided.
- INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPTING-OUT OF ARBITRATION: If you don’t want to agree to arbitrate your Claims as explained above, then you can opt-out of this arbitration agreement by notifying us of your decision in writing at hello@stacyennis.com. You must opt-out within 30 days of the date you first agree to these Terms or any updated Terms.
We welcome feedback, comments, reviews of the products you purchase through us, and suggestions for improvements to the Services (“Feedback”). You can submit Feedback by emailing us at hello@stacyennis.com or by reviewing a particular product. You grant to us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable license under any and all intellectual property rights that you own or control to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon and otherwise exploit the Feedback for any purpose.
Correction of Site Errors
The information on the Site may contain typographical errors or inaccuracies. We reserve the right to update any information we see fit at any time without prior notice. Please note that such errors may relate to product information, pricing and availability. In these instances, we shall have the right to terminate any orders involving pricing errors or inaccuracies. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Third Party Links
The Services may contain links to third-party websites or resources. We provide these links only as a convenience and are not responsible for the content, products or services on or available from those websites or resources or links displayed on such websites. You acknowledge sole responsibility for and assume all risk arising from, your use of any third-party websites or resources.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Creatively and its partners, affiliates, suppliers, licensors, employees, representatives, contractors, agents, and content providers from any and all claims, including but not limited to attorneys fees, arising from or related to 1) content or information you provide; 2) Creatively use of information you provide; and 3) your breach of this Agreement.
Termination
Creatively may terminate or restrict your use of the website or any part of the site at any time for any reason without notice. In the event of termination, you are no longer authorized to access the part of the website affected by such termination or restriction.
Miscellaneous
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Creatively and you with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous agreements, proposals and communications, written or oral. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Idaho without giving effect to any of its conflicts of law provisions. You agree that any cause of action relating to your use of the Site not otherwise required to be resolved by arbitration must be filed in the state or federal courts located in Ada County, Idaho. Creatively may transfer its rights and obligations under the Agreement at any time without notice. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from this Agreement and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. Any failure of Creatively to enforce or exercise any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, for any reason, such provision will be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provision of the Terms will continue in full force and effect. In the event of termination of this Agreement for any reason, the provisions entitled User Generated Content, Disclaimers And Limitation Of Liability, Dispute Resolution, Indemnification, and other provisions for which survival is equitable or appropriate, shall survive.
