OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SITE (INCLUDING

BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR

If we terminate or suspend your account for any reason, you are prohibited from

injunctive redress.

12. MODIFICATIONS AND INTERRUPTIONS

We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Site at any

obligation to update any information on our Site. We also reserve the right to modify

or discontinue all or part of the Site without notice at any time. We will not be liable to

We cannot guarantee the Site will be available at all times. We may experience

13. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms of Use and your use of the Site are governed by and construed in

accordance with the laws of the State of Florida applicable to agreements made and

to be entirely performed within the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of law

principles.

14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Informal Negotiations

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim

related to these Terms of Use (each “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes”)

brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the

Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) 

informally for at least one hundred eighty (180) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal 

negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.

 

Binding Arbitration

If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the

Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and

exclusively resolved through binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT

WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT

AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. 

The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of 

the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary 

Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA

website: www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by 

the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. 

 

The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. 

The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested 

by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if

the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable 

law, the arbitration will take place in Miami-Dade, Florida. 

Except

as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay 

proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the 

award entered by the arbitrator. If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than 

arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts 

located in Miami-Dade, Florida, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses 

of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non convenience with respect to venue and jurisdiction 

in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts

for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information

Transaction Act (UCITA) is excluded from these Terms of Use.

In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be

commenced more than one (1) years after the cause of action arose. If this provision

is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any

Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or

unenforceable, and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent

jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to

submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Restrictions

The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the

Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be

joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to

be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c)

there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported

representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration

The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions

concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to

enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights

of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy,

invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this

provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to

arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or

unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction

within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the

personal jurisdiction of that court.

15. CORRECTIONS

There may be information on the Site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, 

or omissions, including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other information. 

We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or
