TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, COMPANY, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PARTNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS, DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF PROPRIETARY RIGHTS, TITLE, SECURITY, OR ACCURACY.

Certain state laws do not allow limitations on implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. If these laws apply to you, some or all of the above disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations may not apply to you, and you might have additional rights.

Limitation of Liability
IN NO EVENT SHALL COMPANY BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE, OR FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Applicable law may not allow the limitation of liability set forth above, so this limitation of liability may not apply to you.

Indemnification
You agree to fully indemnify, defend, and hold Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, and other representatives, harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees), and other expenses that arise directly or indirectly out of or from: (i) your access to, use of, or alleged use of, the Website or the services or goods obtained through your use of the Website, including, but not limited to, Products; (ii) any User Content you upload or submit to us; (iii) your breach or violation of these Terms, any representation, warranty, or covenant referenced in this Terms, or any applicable law or regulation; (iv) any allegation that any materials you submit to us or transmit to the Website infringe or otherwise violate the copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other intellectual property or other rights of any third-party; (v) your activities in connection with the Website or Products or other websites to which the Website is linked; (vi) any negligent act or omission or any willful misconduct by you; and/or (vii) any inaccuracies in the information provided to you through the Website.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction
You agree that your use of the Website shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the State of Florida, without regard to conflict of law rules. The courts of Miami-Dade County, Florida shall have exclusive jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement.


Arbitration
For purposes of this Agreement, you and Company are each referred to as a “Party” and collectively, as the “Parties”. The Parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations, which shall be a requirement prior to either Party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including its formation, performance, and breach), the Website, and any purchased Products, shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its Consumer Arbitration Rules, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is  void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to determine the validity of any claim and to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the Parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, we will pay the additional cost.

The Parties understand that absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

Class Action Waiver
The Parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the Parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the Parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

Exception - Litigation of Small Claims Court Claims
Notwithstanding the Parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either Party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

Thirty-Day Right to Opt Out
You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in this Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to info@lecalico.com. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first access to the Website, otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms set forth above.
