RESOLUTION OF CLAIMS OR DISPUTES

 

We hope to make you a happy customer, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by calling our customer service department at (203) 557-9266, or by e-mailing us at info@angelsandemeralds.com. If, however, there is an issue that needs to be resolved, this Agreement describes how both of us will proceed.  Any claim or dispute between you and us (or any of our affiliates) arising out of or relating in any way to the products we sell or this Agreement shall be resolved through final, binding arbitration. This obligation applies regardless of whether the claim or dispute involves a tort, fraud, breach of contract, misrepresentation, product liability, negligence, violation of a statute, or any other legal theory.  Included are all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of our relationship; claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement; and claims related to direct marketing efforts, including but not limited to, complaints concerning unsolicited text messages, emails, and telemarketing calls.

 

We each agree that each of us may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity and not in a class action or representative proceeding.  All arbitrations under this Agreement shall be conducted on an individual (and not a class-wide) basis, and an arbitrator shall have no authority to award class-wide relief. You acknowledge and agree that this Agreement specifically prohibits you from commencing arbitration proceedings as a representative of others or joining in any arbitration proceedings brought by any other person.

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other a written Notice of Dispute describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and setting forth the specific relief sought. All Notices to us shall be sent to the following address: P. O. Box 607 Fairfield, CT 06824, with an email copy to info@angelsandemeralds.com.  Upon receipt of such Notice, the other party shall have a thirty-day period in which it may satisfy the claim against it by fully curing the dispute and/or providing all the relief requested in the Notice. After the expiration of such thirty-day cure period, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding.  The arbitration of any claim or dispute under this Agreement shall be conducted pursuant to the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) United States Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes.  These rules and procedures are available by calling the AAA or by visiting its web site at www.adr.org.  The arbitration of any claim or dispute under this Agreement shall be conducted in the State of California or in the location in which you received this Agreement or in your home state.  For any non-frivolous claim that does not exceed $25,000, we will pay all costs of the arbitration and will agree to conduct the arbitration through the AAA offices in your home state. For any claim under $10,000, we further agree that any hearings may be held by telephone and that we will not seek attorney’s fees in the event we prevail.  You acknowledge and agree that each party shall pay the fees and costs of its own counsel, experts and witnesses in any arbitration proceeding.

MISCELLANEOUS

 

If any part of these Terms & Conditions shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed to be severable from these Terms & Conditions and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions of the Terms & Conditions.
