Any use of the materials on the Site, including any commercial use, reproduction for purposes other than those uses that are “Fair Use”, modification, distribution, republication, display or performance – without Our prior written permission is strictly prohibited.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Please Read This Provision Carefully. It Affects Your Legal Rights.

This Provision allows Us to promptly and efficiently resolve any dispute (e.g., claim or controversy, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort – including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence – or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision that may arise between You and Us. Effectively, then, “dispute” is given the broadest meaning enforceable by law and includes any claims against other parties relating to services or products provided or billed to You (such as Our licensors, suppliers, dealers or third-party vendors) whenever You also assert claims against Us in the same proceeding.

This Provision provides that all disputes between You and Us shall be resolved by binding arbitration because acceptance of these Terms constitutes a waiver of your right to litigation claims and all opportunity to be heard by a judge or jury. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney’s fees). ALL DISPUTES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PROVISION.

The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org will arbitrate all disputes, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator with arbitration conducted in Providence, Rhode Island. The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration, and shall in no event be commenced as a class arbitration. All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Provision.

For arbitration before AAA, for Disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for Disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules For Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules. Under no circumstances will class action procedures or rules apply to the arbitration. Under no circumstances shall any arbitration against Us be brought as a class action. The Parties shall jointly pay for the expense of the arbitrator, but shall each bear their own costs of legal counsel. The prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement for all arbitration costs from the losing party, excluding the cost of legal counsel.

The rules of the State of Rhode Island govern these terms and conditions and all disputes, regardless of the choice of law provisions. The state courts located in Providence County, Rhode Island will have exclusive jurisdiction for entering in any arbitration award.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

You acknowledge and agree that, in no event, shall We be liable, whether in contract, warrant, tort (including negligence or breach of statutory duty), strict liability, indemnity, contribution, or otherwise, for any indirect, special, punitive, exemplary incidental or consequential loss, damage, cost or expense of any kind whatsoever, howsoever caused, or for any loss of production; cost of procurement of substitute goods, technology, or services; loss of capital, software, profit, revenues, contracts or business; cost of rework; loss of goodwill or anticipated savings; wasted management time, or any claims by third parties (including but not limited to any defense thereof) even if  We have been advised of their possibility or they are foreseeable. Our total liability on all claims, whether in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence or breach of statutory duty), strict liability, indemnity, contribution, or otherwise, shall not exceed the purchase price of goods or content. These limitations shall not apply where expressly prohibited by law, or shall be amended to be permitted to be given the greatest effect as permitted under law. You acknowledge that the foregoing limitations are reasonable and an essential part of these terms of use.

ASSIGNMENT

The rights and obligations created for You under this agreement may not be assigned to any other party.

SEVERANCE

In the event that one or more of the provisions of this agreement shall be found unenforceable, illegal or invalid, it shall not affect any other provisions of this agreement, and this agreement shall be construed as if the provision found to be unenforceable, illegal or invalid had never been contained in the agreement, or the unenforceable, illegal or invalid provision shall be construed, amended and/or reformed to be made enforceable, legal and valid.
