EXCEPT WHERE OTHERWISE INAPPLICABLE OR PROHIBITED BY LAW, SUCH AS NEW JERSEY, YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL SFG, ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS, SERVICES PROVIDERS, SUPPLIERS, AGENTS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, “SFG PARTIES”) BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. THIS INCLUDES WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, OR ANY OTHER INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. THIS APPLIES REGARDLESS OF THE MANNER IN WHICH DAMAGES ARE CAUSED, AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY) OR OTHERWISE RESULTING FROM (1) THE USE OF, OR THE INABILITY TO USE, THE WEBSITES; (2) THE USE OF, OR THE INABILITY TO USE, ITEMS PURCHASED ON THE WEBSITES; OR (3) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES OR ITEMS. IN NO EVENT WILL SFG TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR CAUSES OF ACTION EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID SFG IN THE LAST SIX (6) MONTHS, OR IF GREATER, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY) PROHIBIT THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU OR BE ENFORCEABLE WITH RESPECT TO YOU, AND IF YOU ARE A USER FROM SUCH JURISDICTIONS, THE FOREGOING SECTIONS TITLED “DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES” AND “LIMITATION OF LIABILITY” ARE INTENDED TO BE ONLY AS BROAD AS IS PERMITTED UNDER THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION.

PLEASE READ THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION CAREFULLY TO UNDERSTAND YOUR RIGHTS. EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY PURCHASE YOU MAKE VIA THIS WEBSITES, ANY INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE VIA THESE WEBSITES, THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ITS FORMATION, PERFORMANCE, OR ALLEGED BREACH), AND YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITES WILL BE EXCLUSIVELY RESOLVED UNDER CONFIDENTIAL BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO BRING A LAWSUIT IN COURT AGAINST SFG, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AND RIGHTS AVAILABLE IN A COURT, SUCH AS DISCOVERY OR THE RIGHT TO APPEAL, MAY BE MORE LIMITED OR MAY NOT EXIST. ARBITRATION IS A FORM OF PRIVATE DISPUTE RESOLUTION IN WHICH PARTIES TO A CONTRACT AGREE TO SUBMIT THEIR DISPUTES AND POTENTIAL DISPUTES TO A NEUTRAL THIRD PERSON (CALLED AN ARBITRATOR) FOR A BINDING DECISION, INSTEAD OF HAVING SUCH DISPUTE DECIDED IN A LAWSUIT, IN COURT, BY A JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL.
YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY ONLY BRING A CLAIM IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OR CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
Generally. Arbitration is a method of resolving a Claim without filing a lawsuit. “Claim” means any dispute between you, SFG, and/or any involved third party relating to your account, Your Use (defined here), your relationship with SFG, or these Terms. This includes any and all claims that relate in any way to your use of the products, your attempted use of the products, and any act or omission by SFG or any third party related to your use or attempted use of the products. You, SFG, or any involved third party may pursue a Claim. SFG agrees to binding arbitration should it have any Claims against you. Likewise, you agree to binding arbitration should you have any Claims against SFG. By agreeing to arbitrate, you waive the right to go to court and agree instead to submit any Claims to binding arbitration. This arbitration provision sets forth the terms and conditions of our agreement to binding arbitration and is governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, as amended.
Exceptions to Binding Arbitration. As an exception to binding arbitration, you and SFG both retain the right to pursue, in a small claims court, any claim that is within that court’s jurisdiction and proceeds on an individual (non-class) basis. SFG will not demand arbitration in connection with any individual claim that you properly file and pursue in a small claims court, so long as the claim is pending only in that court. Binding arbitration also does not apply to disputes concerning trade secret misappropriation, patent infringement, copyright infringement or misuse, or trademark infringement or dilution.
Mandatory Pre-Dispute Procedures. You acknowledge and agree that before initiating any Claim (subject to the exceptions above) against SFG, 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 U.S. Mail to SFG, Inc., 4570 Contractor Place, Livermore, CA-94551.
Commencement of Arbitration. Except where otherwise prohibited by law (including, without limitation, the State of New Jersey), You and SFG agree to commence any arbitration proceeding within 1 year after the Claim arises (including the mandatory pre-dispute procedures outlined above) and that any proceeding commenced after 1 year shall be barred.
Arbitration Location. For your convenience, the arbitration may be conducted in the federal district where you reside. It may be held by telephone or through written submissions if both you and SFG agree.
Applicable Law. This Agreement has been made in and will be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflict of laws thereof.
Sponsoring Organization, Rules and the Arbitrator. You agree that any Claims shall be resolved by submitting the dispute to final and binding confidential arbitration before a single arbitrator who is a retired judge or an experienced attorney with experience in the subject(s) of the Claim. The arbitrator shall be chosen from JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and the arbitration rules of the selected tribunal shall apply, which can be obtained by calling the selected tribunal.
The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, construction, validity, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms and this arbitration provision. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to determine whether this arbitration agreement can be enforced against a non-signatory to this agreement and whether a non-signatory to this agreement can enforce this provision against you or SFG.
Arbitration Fees. SFG shall pay for all filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees for an arbitration initiated by either party. The parties shall each pay their own additional fees, costs, and expenses, including, but not limited to, those for any attorneys, experts, documents, and witnesses. However, if SFG is the prevailing party in the arbitration, applicable law may allow the arbitrator to award attorneys’ fees and costs to SFG.
Arbitration Award. The arbitrator shall follow substantive law and may order any relief if permitted by law. The arbitrator may award any form of individual relief, including injunctions and punitive damages, so long as they are in accordance with applicable law. The arbitrator may award costs or fees to a prevailing party, but only if the law expressly allows it. Nothing herein shall be construed to limit the arbitrator’s ability to award remedies provided by applicable law. Any award rendered shall include a written opinion and shall be final, subject to appeal under the FAA.
Enforceability. This provision survives termination of your account or relationship with SFG, bankruptcy, assignment or transfer. If the class action waiver is deemed unenforceable (i.e., unenforceability would allow arbitration to proceed as a class or representative action), then this entire arbitration provision shall be rendered null and void and shall not apply. If a portion of this arbitration provision (other than the class action waiver) is deemed unenforceable, the remaining portions of this arbitration provision shall remain in full force and effect.
Miscellaneous. This provision is the entire arbitration agreement between you and SFG and shall not be modified except in writing by SFG.
Amendments. SFG reserves the right to amend this arbitration provision at any time. Your continued use of any SFG Websites, purchase of an SFG product, or use or attempted use of an SFG product, is affirmation of your consent to such changes. Should the changes to this arbitration provision be material, SFG will provide you notice. Your continued use of any SFG Websites, purchase of an SFG product, or use or attempted use of an SFG product, after receiving such notice is affirmation of your consent to such material changes.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT-OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE, USE, OR ATTEMPTED USE OF AN SFG PRODUCT (WHICHEVER COMES FIRST) BY WRITING TO SFG, INC., 4570 Contractor Place, Livermore, CA-94551; ATTN: GENERAL COUNSEL. FOR YOUR OPT-OUT TO BE EFFECTIVE, YOU MUST SUBMIT A SIGNED WRITTEN NOTICE IDENTIFYING ANY SFG PRODUCT YOU PURCHASED, USED OR ATTEMPTED TO USE WITHIN THE 30 DAYS AND THE DATE YOU FIRST PURCHASED, USED OR ATTEMPTED TO USE OF SFG PRODUCTS. UNTIMELY OPT-OUTS WILL NOT BE VALID AND YOU MUST THEN PURSUE YOUR CLAIM THROUGH ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THESE TERMS.
In addition to these Terms of Use and Conditions for Sale, your purchase of products through the Websites is subject to the Websites Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Any controversy excluded from the dispute resolution procedure and class action waiver provisions in this Agreement (other than an individual action filed in small claims court) shall be filed only in the state and federal courts located in New York City, New York, and each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for any such controversy.
Notwithstanding the arbitration agreement contained in this Agreement, in order to avoid irreparable injury to SFG, 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 and other equitable relief restraining such breach in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting SFG from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of monetary damages from you.
