4.PRICING AND AVAILABILITY

All prices are shown in U.S. dollars and applicable taxes and other charges, if any, are additional. We reserve the right to adjust prices as we may determine in our sole discretion, at any time and without notice; provided, however, that if we change the amounts or other charges associated with your Coffee Subscription, we will provide advance notice of such changes in accordance with Section 2.

If an item is subject to sales tax, you agree that the amount of taxes shown at checkout may be adjusted. Several factors may cause this, such as variances between processor programs and changes in tax rates.

You agree to pay any shipping and handling charges shown at the time you make a purchase. We reserve the right to increase, decrease, add or eliminate shipping and handling charges from time to time, but we will provide notice of the charges applicable to you before you make your purchase. Generally, shipping is handled by a third-party courier. Actual delivery dates may vary. You agree that you will not obtain, or direct shipment of, a Product for export.

19. ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH SNOWING IN SPACE AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

EXCEPT FOR ANY DISPUTES, CLAIMS, CONTROVERSIES, SUITS, ACTIONS, CAUSES OF ACTION, DEMANDS OR PROCEEDINGS (COLLECTIVELY, “DISPUTES”) SEEKING INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF FOR THE ALLEGED UNLAWFUL USE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COPYRIGHTS, TRADEMARKS, TRADE NAMES, LOGOS, TRADE SECRETS OR PATENTS, YOU AND SNOWING IN SPACE AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES SHALL BE FINALLY DECIDED BY MANDATORY, BINDING ARBITRATION UNDER THE CONSUMER ARBITRATION RULES OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. You agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. If the AAA is unavailable, the arbitration will be administered by another arbitration provider agreed to by the parties or that the court selects.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration. Arbitration allows for more limited discovery than in a court case. A neutral arbitrator decides a dispute, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. In an arbitration you have the right, at your expense, to be represented by an attorney of your choosing. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief under these Terms that a court can award under these Terms. You and Snowing in Space agree that any in-person arbitral hearing would occur before a single arbitrator in the United States in the same county and state as your billing address. Snowing in Space further agrees that your filing fee for an arbitration will be capped at the amount set by the Consumer Rules for the American Arbitration Association. These rules may be found at www.adr.org.

REGARDLESS OF THE FORUM, YOU AND SNOWING IN SPACE AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING, AND THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS WITH YOUR CLAIMS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If any part of this paragraph is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial to the extent permitted by law.

20. MODIFICATIONS TO THE SITES AND PRODUCTS

We reserve the right in our sole discretion to modify, suspend or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Sites (or any features or parts thereof) or the provision of any Products at any time.
