We reserve the right in our sole discretion to modify, suspend or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Site (or any features or parts thereof) or the provision of the Products at any time and without liability, therefore.
15. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH NUTRAMEDIX AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
15.1 Binding Arbitration
Except for any disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, demands or proceedings (collectively, “Disputes”) arising out of or related to a violation of Section 9 or Disputes in which either party seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court or seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, you and NutraMedix agree (a) to waive your and NutraMedix’s respective rights to have any and all Disputes arising from or related to these Terms, or the Site, Content or Products, resolved in a court, and (b) to waive your and NutraMedix’s respective rights to a jury trial. Instead, you and NutraMedix agree to arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration (which is the referral of a Dispute to one or more persons charged with reviewing the Dispute and making a final and binding determination to resolve it instead of having the Dispute decided by a judge or jury in court).
15.2 No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions
You and NutraMedix agree that any Dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site, Content or Products is personal to you and NutraMedix and that such Dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding. You and NutraMedix agree that there will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempts to resolve a Dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, you and NutraMedix agree that a Dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.
15.3 Federal Arbitration Act
You and NutraMedix agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 18 shall be both substantively and procedurally governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
15.4 Notice; Informal Dispute Resolution
You and NutraMedix agree that each party will notify the other party in writing of any arbitrable or small claims Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises, so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to NutraMedix shall be sent by certified mail or courier to NutraMedix, LLC., Attn: General Counsel, 2885 Jupiter Park Dr. Suite 1600, Jupiter, FL 33458 USA. Your notice must include (a) your name, postal address, telephone number, the email address you use or used for your NutraMedix account and, if different, an email address at which you can be contacted, (b) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (c) the specific relief that you are seeking. Our notice to you will be sent electronically in accordance with Section 3 and will include (x) our name, postal address, telephone number and an email address at which we can be contacted with respect to the Dispute, (y) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (z) the specific relief that we are seeking. If you and NutraMedix cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then either you or NutraMedix may, as appropriate and in accordance with this Section 15, commence an arbitration proceeding or, to the extent specifically provided for in Section 15.1, file a claim in court.
15.5 Process
Except for Disputes arising out of or related to a violation of Section 9 or Disputes in which either party seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court or seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, you and NutraMedix agree that any Dispute must be commenced or filed by you or NutraMedix within one (1) year of the date the Dispute arose, otherwise the underlying claim is permanently barred (which means that you and NutraMedix will no longer have the right to assert such claim regarding the Dispute). You may also litigate a Dispute in the small claims court located in the county of your billing address if the Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.
15.6 Opt-Out Right
You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 15 by writing to: NutraMedix, LLC., Attn: General Counsel, 2885 Jupiter Park Dr., Jupiter, FL 33458 USA. In order to be effective, the opt out notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve Disputes in accordance with Section 15.
16. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms, your access to and use of the Site and your order, receipt and use of the Products shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The United Nations Convention on the Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms. Any Dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court, shall be resolved in the state or federal courts of the State of Florida and the United States.
17. Termination
Notwithstanding anything contained in these Terms, we reserve the right, without notice and in our sole discretion, to terminate your right to access or use the Site and to order, receive and use the Products, at any time and for any or no reason, and you acknowledge and agree that we shall have no liability or obligation to you in such event and that you will not be entitled to a refund of any amounts that you have already paid to us, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
18. Severability
If any term, clause or provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, then that term, clause or provision will be severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining part of that term, clause or provision, or any other term, clause or provision of these Terms.
19. Miscellaneous
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and NutraMedix relating to your access to and use of the Site and your order, receipt, and use of Products. These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without the prior written consent of NutraMedix. No waiver of any provision of these Terms will constitute a waiver of such provision in any prior, concurrent or subsequent circumstance, and NutraMedix’s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity.
