AND INTERRUPTIONS
We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the

also reserve the right to modify or discontinue all or part of the Site without

We cannot guarantee
the Site will be available at all times. We may experience hardware, software,
or other problems or need to perform maintenance related to the Site, resulting
in interruptions, delays, or errors. We
reserve the right to change, revise, update, suspend, discontinue, or otherwise

we have no liability
whatsoever for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by your inability to

these Terms of Use will be
construed to obligate us to maintain and support the Site or to supply any
corrections, updates, or releases in connection therewith.
These Terms of Use and your use of the Site are governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts
applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within
the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts
, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
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
thirty (30)
days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations
commence upon written notice from one Party to the other
Party.
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
Middlesex
,
Massachusetts
. 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
Middlesex County
,
Massachusetts
, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack
of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens 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.
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.
There may be
information on the Site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or
omissions, including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other
