You may terminate these Terms of Use by permanently ceasing to use the Website and giving written notice of termination to LAPOMAZE’s Customer Care. LAPOMAZE may terminate these Terms of Use at any time either by giving a notice of termination to you or by denying you access to the Website.

Sections 6, 7, 8, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21 and 22 of these Terms of Use will survive termination and continue to apply and be binding upon you and LAPOMAZE.

 

20. Governing Law

These Terms of Use and all related matters are and will be governed by, and construed and interpreted solely in accordance with, the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and applicable federal laws of Canada, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act (US), excluding any rules of private international law or the conflict of laws that would lead to the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction and excluding any law that implements the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

 

21. Dispute Resolution

(a) Except as provided in paragraph (f), any and all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action (including the interpretation and scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of the controversy, dispute, demand, counts, claim, or cause of action) between you and LAPOMAZE or LAPOMAZE’s employees, agents, successors, or assigns, shall exclusively be settled through arbitration, except that you or LAPOMAZE may take claims to small claims court if the dispute qualifies for hearing by such a court. There is no judge or jury in arbitration. ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT, AND REVIEW BY A COURT IS LIMITED.

 

(b) Arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Information on AAA and how to start arbitration can be found at http://www.adr.org or by calling 800-778-7879. As modified by this agreement, the conduct of the arbitration shall be subject to AAA’s then-current rules for commercial arbitration and, if the arbitrator deems it appropriate, consumer disputes. Notwithstanding any choice of law provision included in these Terms of Use, this arbitration agreement is subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and the New York Convention on the Enforcement of Arbitration Awards, to the extent the New York Convention is applicable.

 

(c) You and LAPOMAZE must abide by these rules: (i) THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION; (ii) you and LAPOMAZE will pay the arbitration costs as required by AAA’s rules, and in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, LAPOMAZE will pay as much of your arbitration filing and hearing fees as the arbitrator deems is necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (iii) the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized at law; (iv) the arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof; (v) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and (vi) each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and costs unless the claim(s) at-issue permit the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation costs, and in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.

 

(d) The arbitration shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you and LAPOMAZE may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, subject to the arbitrator’s discretion to require an in-person hearing if the circumstances warrant. Attendance at an in-person hearing may be made by telephone by you and/or LAPOMAZE, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

 

(e) You and LAPOMAZE agree to first attempt to negotiate any dispute informally for at least 30 days before initiating any proceedings. Such informal negotiations commence upon receipt of written notice from one party to the other (“Notice of Dispute”). Notices of Dispute must: (a) include the full name and contact information of the complaining party; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. LAPOMAZE will send its Notice of Dispute to your billing address or to your e-mail address (if you provided it to LAPOMAZE). If, however, you have not provided LAPOMAZE with a billing or e-mail address, LAPOMAZE is not required to send a Notice of Dispute to you. You will send your Notice of Dispute to LAPOMAZE’s Customer Care representatives at [email protected].

 

(f) A claim to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or LAPOMAZE’s (or any of Aritizia’s licensors’) intellectual property rights shall not be arbitrated. Such claims may be brought in the state and federal courts in New York, New York, or any court of competent jurisdiction. Additionally, notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate under these Terms of Use, you or LAPOMAZE may seek emergency equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction in order to maintain the status quo pending the arbitrator’s ruling. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate.

 

(g) With the exception of subpart (i) in paragraph (c), if any part of this dispute resolution provision is deemed invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the balance of this dispute resolution provision shall remain in effect and be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision were not contained. If, however, subpart (i) in the paragraph (c) is found invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then neither you nor LAPOMAZE shall be entitled to arbitration.

 

(h) Except as provided in paragraph (f), if for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute shall be exclusively brought in Vancouver, in the Province of British Columbia, Canada, and you and LAPOMAZE consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

 

(i) Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms of Use to the contrary, you and LAPOMAZE agree that if LAPOMAZE makes any future change to this dispute resolution provision (other than a change to any notice e-mail address or the website link provided herein), you may reject any such change by sending LAPOMAZE written notice within 30 days of the change to the e-mail address provided above in paragraph (e). By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between you and LAPOMAZE in accordance with the language of this provision.

 

22. Other Matters

You and LAPOMAZE are non-exclusive, independent contracting parties, and nothing in these Terms of Use or done pursuant to these Terms of Use will create or be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, or other similar relationship between you and LAPOMAZE. Upon request by LAPOMAZE, you will execute all further documents and instruments and do all further things as may be reasonably necessary to implement and carry out the provisions and intent of these Terms of Use. No consent or waiver by LAPOMAZE to or of any breach of these Terms of Use by you will be effective unless in writing and signed by LAPOMAZE or will be deemed or construed to be a consent to or waiver of a continuing breach or any other breach by you. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms of Use, LAPOMAZE’s rights and remedies under these Terms of Use are cumulative and not exhaustive or exclusive of any other rights or remedies to which LAPOMAZE may be lawfully entitled under these Terms of Use or at law, and LAPOMAZE will be entitled to pursue any and all of its rights and remedies concurrently, consecutively and alternatively. The provisions of these Terms of Use will enure to the benefit of and be binding upon you and LAPOMAZE and your respective successors and permitted assigns. If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, then the provision will be deemed severed from these Terms of Use and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect without being impaired or invalidated in any way, unless as a result of the severance these Terms of Use would fail in its essential purpose. You will not assign, transfer, delegate, license, sub-license, or grant these Terms of Use or your rights, duties and obligations under these Terms of Use without LAPOMAZE’s express prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in LAPOMAZE’s discretion. LAPOMAZE may, without your consent, assign these Terms of Use or any of LAPOMAZE’s rights, duties, or obligations under these Terms of Use.

 

These Terms of Use and the Other Terms and Conditions together set forth the entire agreement between you and LAPOMAZE regarding the subject matter of these Terms of Use and the Other Terms and Conditions, and supersede all previous communications, representations, negotiations, discussions, agreements, or understandings, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject matter of these Terms of Use and the Other Terms and Conditions. There are no representations, warranties, terms, conditions, undertakings, or collateral agreements, express, implied or statutory, between you and LAPOMAZE regarding the subject matter of these Terms of Use and the Other Terms and Conditions other than as expressly set forth in these Terms of Use and the Other Terms and Conditions.

 

You and LAPOMAZE have each expressly requested and required that these Terms of Use and the Other Terms and Conditions be drawn up in the English language. Les parties conviennent et exigent expressément que ce Contrat et tous les documents qui s’y rapportent soient rédigés en anglais.

 

All rights not expressly granted by these Terms of Use are reserved by LAPOMAZE.
