DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
The Open Formula Products & Services and all information, content, materials, products and other services included on or otherwise made available to you through the open formula products & services are provided by open formula on an “as is” and “as available” basis, unless otherwise specified in writing. Open Formula makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, as to the operation of the Open Formula Products & Services, or the information, content, materials, products or other services included on or otherwise made available to you through the Open Formula Products & Services, unless otherwise specified in writing. You expressly agree that your use of the Open Formula Products & Services is at your sole risk.
To the full extent permissible by law, Open Formula disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. Open Formula does not warrant that the Open Formula Products & Services, information, content, materials, products or other services included on or otherwise made available to you through the Open Formula Products & Services, Open Formula’s servers or electronic communications sent from Open Formula are free of viruses or other harmful components. To the full extent permissible by law, Open Formula will not be liable for any damages of any kind arising from the use of any Open Formula Products & Services, or from any information, content, materials, products or other services included on or otherwise made available to you through any Open Formula Products & Services, including, but not limited to direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, and consequential damages, unless otherwise specified in writing.
DISPUTES
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of any Open Formula Products & Services, or to any products or services sold or distributed by Open Formula or through OpenFormula.com will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Conditions of Use as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to us at 200 Howard ave #236, Des Plaines IL 60018. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the state of Illinois.
We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
INDEMNITY
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold Open Formula, its affiliates, licensors, suppliers, and third-party service providers, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents, successors, and assigns (collectively, the “Open Formula Parties”) harmless from and against any claims, actions, demands, liabilities, and settlements including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees, resulting from, or alleged to result from, your use of the Open Formula Products & Services or Contents, or your violation of these Terms. Open Formula reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by the user, in which event the user will cooperate in asserting any available defenses.
APPLICABLE LAW
By using any Open Formula Products & Services, you agree that the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the state of Illinois, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern these Conditions of Use and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and Open Formula.
