BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
As used in this section, “Arbitration Provisions” refers to the provisions under this section entitled “Binding Arbitration Agreement.”
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
-
Scope of the Arbitration Agreement. Mindful of the high cost of legal disputes, not only in dollars but in time and energy, both you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare agree that any dispute between you and us concerning or arising in any way out of your use of or a purchase from the Website, these Terms of Use, any product or service, and any advertising, promotion, or other communications between you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare (collectively, a “Dispute”), shall be resolved through binding individual arbitration, including threshold questions of arbitrability of the Dispute. Both you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare understand and agree that we are waiving our right to sue or go to court to assert or defend our rights. However, either you or Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare may bring any individual Dispute in small claims court consistent with the jurisdictional and dollar limits that may apply, as long as it is brought and maintained as an individual Dispute. The term “dispute” includes any dispute, action, claim, or other controversy between you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare, whether in contract, warranty, tort, statute, regulation, ordinance, or any other legal or equitable basis. “Dispute” will be given the broadest possible meaning allowable under law.
-
Informal Dispute Resolution. Either party asserting a dispute shall first try in good faith to resolve it by providing written notice as specified below to the other party describing the facts and circumstances (including any relevant documentation) and allowing the receiving party 30 days in which to respond. Both you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a condition precedent which must be satisfied before initiating any arbitration against the other party.
-
How Arbitration Works. Either party may initiate arbitration of a Dispute, will be settled by final and binding arbitration, using the English language, administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”) then in effect (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section, and as of the date of these Terms of Use). Unless you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare agree otherwise, including to conduct of arbitration by telephone or videoconference, any arbitration hearing shall take place in the county of your residence (as determined by your billing address on file with Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare). If you live outside the United States, any arbitration will take place in Broward, FL. Payment for any and all reasonable JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be in accordance with the JAMS Rules. If the value of your Dispute does not exceed $10,000, the Company will pay for the reasonable filing, administrative and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose. In determining whether an action is frivolous, the arbitrator may consider whether Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare has offered you a full refund of the sum you paid for items you purchased from Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare or has otherwise offered full relief to you in relation to your individual claim). Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare also waives any rights it may have to recover an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses against you. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction. Any arbitration under these Terms of Use will take place on an individual basis – class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. You understand that by agreeing to these Terms of Use, you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare are each waiving the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class action or class arbitration.
-
WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BRING CLASS ACTION AND REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS. All arbitrations shall proceed on an individual basis. The arbitrator is empowered to resolve the dispute with the same remedies available in court, however, any relief must be individualized to you and shall not affect any other customer. You and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare also agree that each may bring claims against the other in arbitration only in your or their respective individual capacities and in so doing you and Deux Marie Cosmetics and Skincare hereby waive the right to a trial by jury, to assert or participate in any class action lawsuit or class action arbitration, any private attorney general lawsuit or private attorney general arbitration, and any joint or consolidated lawsuit or joint or consolidated arbitration of any kind. If a court decides that the limitations of this paragraph are deemed invalid or unenforceable, any putative class, private attorney general, or representative action must be brought in a court of proper jurisdiction and not in arbitration.

-
Governing Law and Other Terms. These Arbitration Provisions are governed by, and interpreted, construed, and enforced in accordance with, the Federal Arbitration Act and other applicable federal law. To the extent state law applies to any aspect of these Arbitration Provisions, or to any disputes and claims that are covered by these Arbitration Provisions, the law of the state of California will apply. We will provide notice of any material changes to these Arbitration Provisions; in which case you will have the right to opt out of these Arbitration Provisions within 90 days after such change. Except as set forth above regarding the class action waiver provision, if any portion of these Arbitration Provisions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of these Arbitration Provisions. Only the arbitrator is authorized to make determinations as to the scope, validity, or enforceability of these Arbitration Provisions, including whether any dispute falls within its scope. However, the parties agree that any issue concerning the validity of the class action/representative waiver above must be decided by a court, and an arbitrator does not have authority to consider the validity of the waiver.
