18. Dispute Resolution – Mandatory Arbitration & Class Action Waiver (California)
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
18.1 Informal Resolution First
Before filing any claim, you agree to contact PME and attempt to resolve the dispute informally.
Contact: sales@packagingmadeeasy.com
We will attempt to resolve disputes within a reasonable timeframe.
18.2 Agreement to Arbitrate
If informal resolution fails, you and PME agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to:
-
These Terms,
-
Your use of the Services, or
-
Products purchased from PME
shall be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may bring claims in small claims court if eligible.
18.3 Arbitration Provider & Rules
Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (or Commercial Arbitration Rules if applicable), as modified by these Terms.
The arbitration will be conducted:
-
In California, unless the parties agree otherwise, and/or
-
By phone, video, or written submission when appropriate
18.4 Costs
Payment of arbitration fees will follow AAA rules. PME will not seek to recover arbitration fees from you unless the arbitrator determines your claim is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose.
18.5 Class Action Waiver
You and PME agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action.
You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.
18.6 Exceptions
This arbitration agreement does not prevent either party from seeking:
-
Injunctive relief for intellectual property misuse,
-
Temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions in a court of competent jurisdiction.
18.7 Opt-Out (Optional but Recommended)
You may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice within 30 days of your first purchase or account creation to:
Packaging Made Easy Inc., Attn: Legal – Arbitration Opt-Out
[Insert Mailing Address]
Your notice must include your name, email, order number (if applicable), and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration.
19. Severability
If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining sections remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
If the class action waiver is found unenforceable, then the arbitration agreement will be null and void only as to the class waiver portion.
20. Entire Agreement; No Waiver
These Terms and all referenced policies constitute the entire agreement between you and PME and supersede prior communications.
Failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our rights.
21. Assignment
You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. PME may assign these Terms without notice.
22. Governing Law & Venue
Except where superseded by the arbitration agreement, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Any court proceedings permitted under these Terms will be brought in state or federal courts located in California, and both parties consent to jurisdiction and venue there.
23. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms by posting changes on our website. Changes are effective upon posting unless otherwise required by law. Continued use of the Services after updates constitutes acceptance.
