ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY, AS THEY REQUIRE YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH US, AND LIMIT THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. 

You acknowledge and agree that before initiating any claim against us, you will first give us an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. This includes sending a written description of your problem or dispute to us including, but not limited to, information or representations related to our products and upon which you rely. You may send the written description by US certified mail to Eberjey at 1200 Ponce De Leon Blvd, Suite 802 Coral Gables, FL 33134. You agree to negotiate with us in good faith about your problem or dispute. If for some reason your problem or dispute is not resolved to your satisfaction within 60 days after our receipt of your written dispute, you agree to the dispute resolution provisions below. 

All disputes arising out of, relating to, or in connection with these Terms and Conditions or your use of the Website including without limitation, products ordered or purchased through the Website, that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court will be resolved through binding arbitration on an individual basis, except that you and Eberjey are not required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents. You and Eberjey are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms and Conditions and any other contractual relationship between you and Eberjey. 

The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute-resolution provision. Arbitration will be initiated through the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of AAA, as modified by these Terms and Conditions. The AAA’s rules are available at http://www.adr.org/consumer or by calling +1 800 778 7879, or by requesting them from us by writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Eberjey or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator. You may download or copy a form notice for the dispute and a form to initiate arbitration from the American Arbitration Association at www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after Eberjey receives notice at our address listed above that you have commenced arbitration, it will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than US $10,000. If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of these Terms and Conditions. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope and enforceability of these Terms and Conditions, including, but not limited to, this arbitration agreement. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator selected by the AAA. Arbitrations will be held in Miami, Florida. 

If the claim is for $10,000 or less, the party initiating the arbitration may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted (1) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (2) through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing; or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds US $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. If the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of Eberjey’s last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected (or if Eberjey did not make a settlement offer before an arbitrator was selected), then Eberjey will pay you the amount of the award or US $1,000, whichever is greater.  

Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Each party shall pay for its own costs and attorneys' fees, if any. However, if any party prevails on a statutory claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys' fees, or if there is a written agreement providing for payment or recovery attorneys’ fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to the prevailing party, under the standards for fee shifting provided by law. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the arbitration is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse Eberjey for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits. 

Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award, but in so doing, the arbitrator shall apply substantive law regarding damages as if the matter had been brought in court, including without limitation, the law on punitive damages as applied by the United States Supreme Court. Arbitration allows for more limited discovery than in court, however, we agree to cooperate with each other to agree to reasonable discovery in light of the issues involved and amount of the claim. 

You and Eberjey waive any constitutional and statutory rights to go to court and have a trial in front of a judge or a jury. Rather, you and Eberjey elect to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. In any litigation between you and Eberjey over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, you and Eberjey waive all rights to a jury trial and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Eberjey may bring an individual action in small claims court. 

This agreement to arbitrate will survive the termination of your relationship with Eberjey. 

To the extent the parties are permitted under these Terms and Conditions of Service to initiate litigation in a court, both you and Eberjey agree that all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to the Terms or the use of the Products will be litigated exclusively in the federal and state courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida. You and Eberjey consent to the personal jurisdiction of both courts. 

In order to avoid irreparable injury to Eberjey, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by you of the provisions of this Agreement, we shall be entitled to seek an injunction or other equitable relief restraining such breach. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting us from pursuing any other remedies available to us for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of monetary damages from you. 

If the arbitration terms and conditions of this section are found to be unenforceable, then (i) the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, but the remaining provisions of these Terms and Conditions shall remain in full force and effect, and (ii) exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claims will be in state or federal courts located in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida. 

CLASS ACTION WAIVER

YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. Likewise, an arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. 

LIMITATION ON TIME TO FILE CLAIMS

Any cause of action or claim you may have arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions or the Website must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues, otherwise, such cause of action or claim is permanently barred.  

GOVERNING LAW

Except to the extent they are preempted by US federal law, the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to its principles of conflicts of law, shall govern all disputes arising out of these Terms and Conditions.
