Evive Brands makes no representation that the information and materials on our Website is appropriate or available for use in locations outside of Arizona.
  2.   Severability and No Waiver.  No waiver by Evive Brands of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition, and any failure by Evive Brands to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any part of these Terms of Use is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be so held to the minimum extent required by law, or removed from the Terms of Use, and except as set forth in Section 21 (Dispute Resolution), all other parts of these Terms of Use are still valid and enforceable.  The parties further agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable provision of these Terms of Use with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the fullest extent possible, the economic, business, and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable provision.

  1.   Modification.  Evive Brands may modify these Terms of Use at any time, in its sole discretion, without notice to you, and such modifications will be posted here and become effective upon posting online.  You agree to review these Terms of Use regularly because you will be bound by any changes made, and your continued use of the Website constitutes agreement to any modified terms.

Evive Brands can also assign its rights under the Terms of Use to any other party at any time without notice to you.  The provisions of Sections 1 (Introduction), 12 (Disclaimer of Warranties), 13 (Indemnification), 14 (Waiver, Release, and Limitation of Liability), 15 (Governing Law), and 21 (Dispute Resolution) will survive any suspension, restriction, limitation, or termination of access to the Website.

17.         Accessing the Website. We reserve the right to withdraw or amend the Website, and any material we provide on the Website, in our sole discretion without notice.  We will not be liable if, for any reason, all or any part of the Website is unavailable at any time or for any period.  From time to time, we may restrict access to some parts of the Website or the entirety of the Website.

18.   Entire Agreement.  These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and Evive Brands  pertaining to the subject matter hereof.  They supersede all other agreements, communications, or representations, oral or written, between us, past or present.

19.   Dispute Resolution.  PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY BECAUSE THEY REQUIRE ARBITRATION OF CERTAIN DISPUTES ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMIT THE PROCEDURES BY WHICH YOU AND Evive Brands CAN SEEK RELIEF.  ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY, ALLOWS FOR MORE LIMITED DISCOVERY THAN IN COURT, AND IS SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS.  ARBITRATORS CAN AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF THAT A COURT CAN AWARD.  ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW; CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.  HOWEVER, IN ARBITRATION, BOTH YOU AND US WILL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ATTORNEYS’ FEES FROM THE OTHER PARTY TO THE SAME EXTENT AS YOU WOULD BE IN COURT.

A.  Agreement to Arbitrate and Jury Waiver.  You and Evive Brands mutually agree to resolve Disputes (as defined below) with Evive Brands in arbitration, as set forth in more detail below.  Both you and Evive Brands waive the right to a jury trial on any Disputes, to the fullest extent of the law.  The word “Disputes” means any disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, losses, liabilities, and/or demands in any way relating to, in connection with, or arising out of the Website, use of any cookies, pixels, web beacons, or similar technologies, data or information privacy, sharing, or security concerns, incidents, or breaches, or these Terms of Use, including any past, currently pending, existing, or future Disputes of any kind.  “Disputes” do not include, and this arbitration and class waiver provision does not apply to, claims by or against Evive Brands employees related to the terms or conditions of their employment, claims by Evive Brands patients for alleged medical malpractice, wrongful death, or similar personal physical injury or survivor claims related to a patient’s medical care at Evive Brands or by a Evive Brands, individual actions brought in small claims court for disputes fully within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction, or claims in which either party seeks injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents.

B.  Class Action Waiver.  To the maximum extent allowed by applicable law, you and Evive Brands agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, on an individual basis, and that you and Evive Brands each waive any right to pursue claims on a class, collective, non-individual, mass, or consolidated basis or in a representative proceeding.  The arbitrator may not join or consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of representative, collective, non-individual, mass, or class proceeding.  Nothing in these terms should be read to allow class arbitration.  Any claim that all or part of this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator.  All other disputes with respect to whether this Dispute Resolution provision and its terms are unenforceable, unconscionable, applicable, valid, void or voidable shall be determined exclusively by an arbitrator, and not by any court.

C.  Pre-Arbitration Notice and Good Faith Negotiations.  You and Evive Brands also agree that each party will notify the other in writing of any Dispute before initiating arbitration, so that we can try to resolve the Dispute informally and individually.  Notice by Evive Brands will be sent to you at your last known street and email addresses on file, and notice by you to Evive Brands will be sent by mail to Evive Brands’s Legal Department, 8100 E. Indian School Rd Suite 201 Scottsdale, AZ 85251, Attn: Chief Legal Officer.  The notice of Dispute must be specific and individual to you and include your name, street address, telephone number, and email address used for access to the Website, as well as a brief description of the Dispute, the amount of money (if any) at issue, and the specific relief sought.  The notice must be signed and include your handwritten signature or the handwritten signature of a Evive Brands employee, as applicable, depending on which party is initiating the Dispute.  You and Evive Brands then agree to negotiate personally, individually, and in good faith to try to resolve the Dispute.  If and only if we cannot resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the notice is received, then either party may commence an arbitration proceeding with a written demand for arbitration.  Any limitations period will be tolled from the date the Dispute is noticed to the other side until the expiration of this thirty (30)-day period.  Compliance with this Pre-Arbitration Notice provision is a condition precedent and requirement for initiating any arbitration proceedings.

D.  Arbitration Procedures.  To make arbitration as cost-efficient for the parties as possible, the parties agree to initiate any arbitration without using an arbitration service Evive Brands or administrator and to instead serve directly on the other party a written arbitration demand setting forth the relevant facts and claims.  The demand will be specific and individual to you and include the information and signature set out in the Pre-Arbitration Notice provision above.  The delivery addresses for service of the written arbitration demand are the same as set out in the notice paragraph above.  The arbitrator will be selected through mutual agreement of the parties, and the arbitrator will be a licensed attorney or a retired judge.  The parties may use an arbitrator from the lists of court-approved neutrals listed on the Website for the U.S. District Court for the Arizona (https://www.azd.uscourts.gov/) or another mutually agreed-upon arbitrator, and the court will appoint an arbitrator under 9 U.S.C. § 5, if the parties cannot agree.  The arbitration will be conducted in Maricopa County; your county of residence; or another mutually agreed location, and the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration.  Any documents exchanged will not be used or shared outside of the arbitration process without the prior written consent of the parties or as required by law.  Unless otherwise prohibited by law, all arbitration proceedings will be confidential to Evive Brands and you, and closed to the public and anyone not a party to the proceeding.  The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages and other remedies on an individual basis only to the extent available under applicable law and consistent with and subject to the limitations set forth in these Terms of Use.  Also, to the fullest extent allowed by law, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of you or Evive Brands and only to the extent necessary to provide the relief warranted by your or Evive Brands’ individual claim.  Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.  Except as modified by these terms, the parties agree to conduct their arbitration pursuant to the JAMS General Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available here.

E.  Arbitration Fees.  The party initiating the arbitration will pay any filing, case initiation, or arbitrator fees, up to the amount that would be required to pursue the same claim in the U.S. District Court for Arizona. For individual damages claims with less than $25,000 at issue, Evive Brands will pay the additional, reasonable fees and costs of arbitration.  For claims with more than $25,000 at issue, or where a party seeks injunctive or declaratory relief, the parties will share the fees and costs of arbitration equally.  The parties’ good faith negotiation of reasonable fees with the arbitration Evive Brands is authorized as needed.  If the arbitrator determines that your or our claim(s) are frivolous, the party bringing the frivolous claim(s) will reimburse Evive Brands the other party for any amounts that the other party paid for the arbitration.

F.  Federal Arbitration Act.  These Terms of Use affect interstate commerce, and the interpretation and enforceability of this Dispute Resolution provision will be substantively, procedurally, and exclusively governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq., to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, except as modified by these Terms of Use.

G.  Forum Selection.  For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and Evive Brands agree to proceed in state and federal courts covering Arizona, and you agree to be subject to personal jurisdiction there, waiving any jurisdictional, venue, or inconvenient forum defenses or objections to those courts.  If Evive Brands does not enforce any rights under these Terms of Use at any point, it will not be deemed a waiver of any provision or right under these Terms of Use. 

20.  Limitation of Time to File ClaimsAny action, claim or dispute you have against us must be filed within one (1) year, unless prohibited by applicable law.  The one-year period begins when the claim or notice of dispute first could be filed.  If a claim or dispute is not filed within one year, it is permanently barred.
