AGREEMENT BETWEEN USER AND THE BEACHWAVER CO. UPDATED 11/13/2017
Beachwaver.com (“site”, “website”) is operated by the Beachwaver Co. an Illinois corporation (“the Company”, “us” or “we”).
BY USING THIS WEBSITE, YOU AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
The goods, services, and information provided on this website are offered to you conditioned on your acceptance without modification of the following terms, conditions, and notices (the “Agreement”). Your use of the website constitutes your agreement to the Agreement. When you use this website, you agree that both your access to the site and your use of it are subject to all applicable laws, subject to the terms and conditions in this legal notice, any of which may change at any time without notice.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between you and the Company and governs your use of the website and the services, superseding any prior agreements between you and the Company.

REMEDIES
In the event of any problem with this website or any content, you agree that your sole remedy is to cease using this website. In the event of any problem with the products or services that you have purchased on or through this website, you agree that your sole remedy, if any, is from the manufacturer of such products or supplier of such services, in accordance with such manufacturer's or supplier's warranty, or to seek a return and refund for such product or services in accordance with the returns and refunds policies posted on this website. Except as prohibited by applicable New Jersey law, in no event shall the Company’s total liability to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action whether in contract, tort (including, but not limited to, negligence), or otherwise exceed the greater of (a) fifty dollars ($50.00) or (b) the value of your purchase on the website.
CHOICE OF LAW
Resolution of disputes shall be conducted in accordance with the laws of the state of Illinois. By using this Website, you agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Cook County, Illinois and waive any jurisdictional, venue or inconvenient forum objections.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of any service provided on this website, or to any product or service provided by the Company will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except for qualified claims that may be brought in small claims court. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration laws apply to this agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Conditions of Use as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent, shown below. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. Likewise, the Company will not seek attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live, or at another mutually agreed location.
We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
If you have a subpoena to serve on the Company, please note that we do not accept service via e-mail or fax and will not respond to the subpoena transmitted via e-mail or fax. All subpoenas must be properly served on the Company, by mailing the subpoena to our registered agent.
