11. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT WILL THE CODEX ENTITIES BE LIABLE (A) FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, LOSS OF USE, DATA OR PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE site), HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER UNDER THESE TERMS OR OTHERWISE ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SITE OR THESE TERMS AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) EVEN IF THE CODEX ENTITIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, OR (B) FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM, DEMAND OR DAMAGES WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE use OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SITE.

THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages; in such states or jurisdictions, the liability of Codex Entities shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law. THEREFORE, THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EVEN IF ANY REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

12. INDEMNIFICATION.

By entering into these Terms and using the Site, you agree that you shall indemnify and hold the Codex Entities harmless from and against any and all liabilities, costs, damages, losses, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of or in connection with: (a) your violation or breach of any term of these Terms or any applicable law or regulation; (b) your violation of any rights of any third party; (c) any unauthorized use of the Site; (d) Your Content, or (e) your negligence or willful misconduct.

13. ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Informal Process First. You agree that in the event of any dispute between you and the Codex Entities relating in any way to these Terms or your use of the Site, you will first contact Codex and make a good faith sustained effort to resolve the dispute before resorting to more formal means of resolution, including without limitation, any court action.

Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver. After the informal dispute resolution process, any remaining dispute, controversy, or claim (collectively, “Claim”) relating in any way to these Terms or your use of the Site, will be resolved by arbitration. You and the Codex agree that any Claim 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). Arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Rules. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction. Any arbitration under the Terms will take place on an individual basis – class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. You understand that by agreeing to the Terms, you and Codex are each waiving the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class action or class arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and Codex will have the right to bring an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable or conservatory relief, pending a final decision by the arbitrator. You may instead assert your claim in “small claims” court, but only if your claim qualifies, your claim remains in such court and your claim remains on an individual, non-representative and non-class basis. An arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same user to the extent required by applicable law.

Costs of Arbitration. 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 claim does not exceed $10,000, Codex 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.

Opt-Out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration provisions set forth in these Terms by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to support@codexbeauty.com (estimated response time: 24-48 hours) or to the U.S. mailing address listed at the bottom of these Terms. The notice must be sent to Codex within thirty (30) days of your registering to use the Site or agreeing to these Terms, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with these Terms. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, Codex also will not be bound by them.

14. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

Updating These Terms. We may modify these Terms from time to time in which case we will update the “Last Revised” date at the top of these Terms. If we make changes that are material, we will use reasonable efforts to attempt to notify you, such as by e-mail and/or by placing a prominent notice on the first page of the Site. However, it is your sole responsibility to review the Terms from time to time to view any such changes. The updated Terms will be effective as of the time of posting, or such later date as may be specified in the updated Terms. Your continued access or use of the Site after the modifications have become effective will be deemed your acceptance of the modified Terms.

Termination of License and Your Account. If you breach any of the terms of these Terms, all licenses granted by Codex will terminate automatically. Additionally, Codex may suspend, disable, or delete your Account and/or the Site (or any part of the foregoing) with or without notice, for any or no reason. If Codex deletes your Account for any suspected breach of these Terms by you, you are prohibited from re-registering for an Account under a different name. In the event of Account deletion for any reason, Codex may, but is not obligated to, delete any of Your Content. Codex shall not be responsible for the failure to delete or deletion of Your Content. All sections which by their nature should survive the termination of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement by Codex or you. Termination will not limit any of Codex’s other rights or remedies at law or in equity.

Injunctive Relief. You agree that a breach of these Terms will cause irreparable injury to Codex for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and Codex shall be entitled to equitable relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law without a bond, other security or proof of damages.
California Residents. If you are a California resident, in accordance with Cal. Civ. Code § 1789.3, you may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs by contacting them in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112 Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.

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

Miscellaneous. These Terms and the licenses granted hereunder may be assigned by Codex but may not be assigned by you without the prior express written consent of Codex. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. The section headings used herein are for reference only and shall not be read to have any legal effect. The Site is operated by us in the United States. Those who choose to access the Site from locations outside the United States do so at their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws. The Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California and with respect to arbitration by the JAMS Rules, without regard to conflict of laws rules. Except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms, all arbitration and other litigation of any dispute between you and Codex related to these Terms shall be located in California.

How to Contact Us. You may contact us regarding the Site or these Terms at: 1900 Camden Avenue, Suite 101, San Jose, CA 95124 or by e-mail at support@codexbeauty.com (estimated response time: 24-48 hours).
