Welcome to laureldales.com, the United States online store of Laureldale's
(hereinafter the "Laureldale's Site" or “Site”), which is operated by Laureldale’s Inc. 200 Massachusetts Ave NW 7th Floor Washington DC 20001, USA (hereinafter referred to as "Laureldale's”, “we”, “us” or “our”). The following terms and conditions and any other terms and conditions, agreements or policies set forth in the Customer Help Center or incorporated by reference, including without limitation, the US Privacy Statement, (collectively the “Terms and Conditions”) govern your access to and use of the Laureldale's Site, sales of products offered on the Laureldale's Site and sales of products ordered through our Order from Store program.

Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully. These Terms and Conditions include a class action waiver and require binding arbitration on an individual basis, rather than a jury trial, to resolve disputes, under the section titled “Dispute Resolution.”

 

2. Scope

These Terms and Conditions only cover the web pages at laurel dales.com that we control and orders placed through the Order from Store Function in the United States, and otherwise, on which we display a direct link to these Terms and Conditions. They do not apply to any other web pages.

We make no warranty that the Services will meet your requirements, or that the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error free; nor do we make any warranty as to the results that may be obtained from the use of the Services, or that defects in the Services will be corrected. We specifically disclaim any liability associated with the use of the Services or the products purchased through the Services (e.g., rashes that may develop from wearing the products or dyes that bleed from the products onto other items) and you agree that you will not sue Laureldale's for any claim related to any products purchased through the Services. You understand and agree that you will be solely responsible for any damage to your computer or loss of data that results from the download of any material in any way related to the Services. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you from us through the Services, or otherwise will create any warranty, representation or guarantee not expressly stated in these Terms and Conditions.

Some states do not allow exclusion of implied warranties, so these exclusions may not apply in individual cases. You may have additional rights that vary from state to state. To the extent that we may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any implied warranty, the scope and duration of such warranty will be the maximum permitted under such applicable law.

3.3

While Laureldale's continues to make every effort to ensure that the photographs displayed on the Laureldale's Site and Services are faithful reproductions of the original products, variations may occur due to the technical and color resolution characteristics of your computer.

13. Dispute Resolution

Please read this Section (“Dispute Resolution”) carefully. It is part of your contract with us and affects your rights. It contains procedures for mandatory binding arbitration and a class action waiver.

13.1 Application of Dispute Resolution Process.

All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms and Conditions or the use of the Services that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis according to the process described herein. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings will be held in English. This dispute resolution process, including binding arbitration, applies to you and us, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, assigns, suppliers and licensors as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of the Services.

13.2 Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution.

Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to us should be sent to: Laureldale's Legal Dept., 2 Embarcadero Center, 8th Floor, San Francisco, CA, 94111. After the Notice is received, the parties may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If the parties do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.

13.3 Arbitration Rules.

Arbitration will be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider will govern all aspects of the arbitration, including without limitation the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with these Terms and Conditions. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules (“Arbitration Rules”) governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held in a location within one hundred (100) miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the U.S. the arbitrator will give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last settlement offer that we made to you prior to the initiation of arbitration, we will pay you the greater of the award or Two Thousand Five Hundred U.S. Dollars (US $2,500.00). Each party will bear its own costs (including attorneys’ fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and will pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.
13.4 Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration.
If non-appearance based arbitration is elected, the arbitration will be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner will be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration will not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

13.5 Time Limits.

If either party pursues arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim.

13.6 Authority of Arbitrator.

If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of the parties, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms of Use. The arbitrator will issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon the parties.

13.7 Waiver of Jury Trial.

The parties hereby waive their constitutional and statutory rights to go to court and have a trial in front of a judge or a jury, instead electing that all claims and disputes will be resolved by arbitration under this Dispute Resolution section. Arbitration procedures are typically subject only to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between the parties in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, the parties waive all rights to a jury trial, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.

13.8 Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions.

All claims and disputes within the scope of this Dispute Resolution section must be arbitrated or litigated on an individual basis and not on a class basis, and claims of more than one customer or user cannot be arbitrated or litigated jointly or consolidated with those of any other customer or user.

13.9 Confidentiality.

All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including without limitation the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, will be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph will not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Dispute Resolution section, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
13.10 Severability. If any part or parts of this Dispute Resolution section are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts will be of no force and effect and will be severed and the remainder of this Dispute Resolution section will continue in full force and effect.

13.11 Right to Waive.

Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Dispute Resolution section may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver will not waive or affect any other portion of this Dispute Resolution section.

13.12 Survival.

This Dispute Resolution section will survive the termination of your relationship with us.

13.13 Small Claims Court.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court.

13.14 Emergency Equitable Relief.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures will not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Dispute Resolution section.

13.15 Claims Not Subject to Arbitration.

For any claim that by law is not subject to arbitration, we and you agree to submit and consent to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction in, and the exclusive venue of, the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, California.

The paragraph headings in these Terms and Conditions, are included only to help make these Terms and Conditions easier to read and have no binding effect. Any delay or failure by us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms and Conditions will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver by us will have effect unless such waiver is set forth in writing, signed by us; nor will any such waiver of any breach or default constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default

14.4

The law of the State of California and of the United States, excluding their choice of law provisions, will be applicable. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms and Conditions.

14.6
