Under no circumstances shall we, our affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, members, managers, employees, agents, or representatives of any of the aforementioned, be liable to you or any third party for damages of any kind (including, but not limited to, any direct, indirect, special, punitive, incidental, or consequential damages, or damages for loss of profits, goodwill, revenue, business interruption, or loss of data) arising from the use of, access to, reliance on, unavailability of, inability to use, or improper use of our Website.

Confidential Binding Arbitration:

By agreeing to these Terms, both you and we waive the right to a trial by jury and the ability to participate in class actions.

11.1 ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US PERTAINING IN ANY WAY TO OUR WEBSITE AND THE PRODUCTS ADVERTISED THEREON (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ORDERS MADE FROM ADVERTISING ON OUR WEBSITE, RELATED ADVERTISEMENTS AND DISCLOSURES, EMAIL MESSAGES WE SEND TO YOU, OR RELATING TO THE COLLECTION OR USE OF ANY INFORMATION ABOUT YOU IN CONNECTION WITH OUR WEBSITE), THESE TERMS, OR YOUR STATUS AS A USER WILL BE SUBMITTED TO CONFIDENTIAL ARBITRATION IN THE FEDERAL JUDICIAL DISTRICT IN WHICH YOU RESIDE, UNLESS YOU HAVE VIOLATED OR THREATENED TO VIOLATE OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

11.2 If you intend to pursue arbitration, you must first send us a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) via certified mail. The Notice should be addressed to contact@comprisons.org and directed to the attention of Legal Counsel. The Notice must describe the nature and basis of the claim or disputes and specify the relief sought. If an agreement to resolve the claim is not reached within thirty (30) days of receiving the Notice, either party may initiate arbitration.

11.3 All arbitrations required by these Terms will adhere to the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator’s decision is binding and enforceable in any court with jurisdiction. To the fullest extent allowed by law, no arbitration under these Terms may be combined with an arbitration involving any other party subject to these Terms, including class arbitration proceedings. Unless otherwise agreed by both parties, the arbitrator cannot consolidate your claim with any other claim or preside over any form of a representative, private attorney general, or class proceeding.

11.4 For arbitration claims you bring against us in accordance with this Section 13, we will cover all your administrative, hearing, and arbitrator’s fees and costs for the arbitration, excluding fees, expenses, and costs for your lawyers, experts, or witnesses beyond any filing fee required for a lawsuit in a state or federal court (whichever is greater) in the judicial district where you reside. The arbitrator can grant monetary or equitable relief solely to the individual party seeking such relief and only to the extent required to address that party’s specific claim. Additionally, an arbitration award and any associated judgment apply only to that particular case and cannot be used in any other case except for enforcing the award itself. For the sake of efficiency, the arbitrator will not provide a statement of reasons for the award unless requested by all parties.

11.5 TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE NOT TO SERVE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS IN ANY LAWSUIT AGAINST US IN ANY COURT OR IN ARBITRATION, REGARDING CLAIMS RELATING TO US OR OUR WEBSITE, INCLUDING ORDERS MADE THROUGH OUR WEBSITE, OUR ADVERTISEMENTS AND DISCLOSURES, EMAILS, OR THE COLLECTION OR USE OF YOUR INFORMATION IN CONNECTION WITH OUR WEBSITE, THESE TERMS, OR YOUR STATUS AS A PURCHASER OF OUR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. THIS SECTION 14 WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT AFTER THE TERMINATION OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH US.

General Terms:

No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is established as a result of these Terms. These terms constitute the entire agreement between us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of the enforcement of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is deemed unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be restricted or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that these Terms remain in full force and effect and are enforceable.
