FASHIONPHILE’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY DAMAGES FINALLY AWARDED SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH EITHER THE PURCHASE OF GOODS VIA THE SERVICES OR FOR USE OR SALE OF GOODS VIA THE SERVICES. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
- Essential Terms.

The Services and their content, including their “look and feel” (e.g., text, graphics, images, logos), proprietary content, information and other materials, are protected under intellectual property, copyright, trademark and other laws. You acknowledge and agree that FASHIONPHILE and/or its licensors own all right, title and interest in and to the Services (including without limitation any and all patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, show-how, know-how and any and all other intellectual property rights therein or related thereto) and you agree not to take any action(s) inconsistent with such ownership interests. You do not acquire any rights or licenses under any of FASHIONPHILE’s (or its licensors’) patents, patent applications, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks or other intellectual property rights on account of these Terms of Use. You acknowledge and agree that the features and functionality of the Services, and all software, content, data, information and materials contained therein are the confidential and proprietary information of FASHIONPHILE (or its licensors), and accordingly you agree to (a) maintain the confidentiality of such information using reasonable efforts and care (but in no event less than the same efforts and care you use to protect your own confidential and proprietary information) and not disclose such information to any third party without the prior written consent of FASHIONPHILE and (b) only use such information for the purposes of using the Services provided by FASHIONPHILE hereunder.
- Feedback. Any and all (a) suggestions for correction, change and modification to the Services and other feedback (including but not limited to quotations of written or oral feedback), information and reports provided to FASHIONPHILE by you (collectively “Feedback”) and all (b) improvements, updates, modifications or enhancements, whether made, created or developed by FASHIONPHILE or otherwise relating to the Services (collectively, “Revisions”), are and will remain the property of FASHIONPHILE.

You hereby assign to FASHIONPHILE any and all right, title and interest (including, but not limited to, any patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, show-how, know-how, moral rights and any and all other intellectual property right) that you may have in and to any and all Feedback and Revisions. At FASHIONPHILE’s request, you will execute any document, registration or filing required to give effect to the foregoing assignment.
VII. GOVERNING LAW/DISPUTE RESOLUTION/ARBITRATION
In the event of a dispute, you and FASHIONPHILE agree to try to resolve it informally first. If it’s not resolved 60 days later, we agree to arbitrate the claim, instead of going to court. You may opt-out of arbitration within 30 days of accepting these Terms of Use.
You agree to resolve disputes with FASHIONPHILE through binding arbitration, except as described in this section VII (“Arbitration Clause”). The parties expressly waive the right to bring or participate in any kind of class, collective, or mass action, private attorney general action, or any other representative action, except as described in Section VII(g). You may opt-out of this Arbitration Clause under Section VII(k).
- COVERED DISPUTES. YOU AND FASHIONPHILE AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN YOU AND FASHIONPHILE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE AGREEMENT OR THE WEBSITE (A “DISPUTE”) WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT. A DISPUTE INCLUDES ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE RELATING TO THE WEBSITE, ACCESS AND USE THEREOF, YOUR ACCOUNT, OR ANY ASPECTS OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP OR TRANSACTIONS WITH FASHIONPHILE. A DISPUTE ALSO INCLUDES ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES THAT AROSE FROM OR INVOLVE FACTS THAT OCCURRED BEFORE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE AGREEMENT AND CLAIMS THAT MAY ARISE AFTER ITS TERMINATION. FOR CLARITY, NOTHING IN THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE PREVENTS EITHER PARTY FROM SETTLING ANY DISPUTE(S) ON A CLASS-WIDE, BATCH-WIDE OR OTHER MULTIPARTY BASIS.
- EXCEPTIONS TO ARBITRATION. THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE DOES NOT REQUIRE ARBITRATION OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF CLAIMS BROUGHT BY EITHER YOU OR FASHIONPHILE:
- small claims court actions, if the requirements of the court are met and the claims are only on an individual basis
- claims relating to intellectual property rights, such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights and patents; and
- claims for public injunctive relief as allowed and interpreted by applicable law
- INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION FIRST. LIKE YOU, WE WANT TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITHOUT RESORTING TO ARBITRATION. IF YOU HAVE A DISPUTE WITH US, BEFORE INITIATING ARBITRATION, YOU AGREE TO SEND AN INDIVIDUALIZED REQUEST (“PRE-ARBITRATION DEMAND”) TO [[email protected]] SO THAT WE CAN WORK TOGETHER TO RESOLVE THE DISPUTE. This Section VII(c) is a condition precedent to commencing arbitration. The arbitrator will dismiss any arbitration filed without fully and completely complying with these informal dispute resolution procedures.
- A Pre-Arbitration Demand is only valid when it pertains to, and is on behalf of, a single individual. A Pre-Arbitration Demand brought on behalf of multiple individuals is invalid as to all.
- The Pre-Arbitration Demand must include: (i) your name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address associated with your account; (ii) the name, telephone number, mailing address and email address of your counsel, if any; (iii) a description of your dispute; and (iv) your signature.
- Likewise, if FASHIONPHILE has a Dispute with you, FASHIONPHILE will send an email with its individualized Pre-Arbitration Demand, including the requirements listed above, to the email address associated with your account.
- If the Dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) calendar days of when either you or FASHIONPHILE submitted a Pre-Arbitration Demand, an arbitration can be brought.
- This Section VII(c) does not apply to claims brought under the exception to arbitration in Section VII(b).
- If, contrary to this provision, a party prematurely files an arbitration demand, the parties agree that the arbitration provider must hold those demands in abeyance.
- ARBITRATION PROCEDURE. IF, AFTER COMPLETING THE INFORMAL PROCESS IN SECTION VII(C), EITHER YOU OR FASHIONPHILE WISHES TO INITIATE ARBITRATION, THE INITIATING PARTY MUST SERVE THE OTHER PARTY WITH A DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION. ANY DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION BY YOU WILL BE SENT TO THE FASHIONPHILE ADDRESS IN SECTION VII(C). FASHIONPHILE WILL SEND ANY ARBITRATION DEMAND TO THE EMAIL ADDRESS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR FASHIONPHILE ACCOUNT OR TO YOUR COUNSEL, IF ANY. YOU AND FASHIONPHILE AGREE THAT THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (“FAA”) GOVERNS THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE. IF THE FAA CANNOT APPLY, THEN THE STATE LAWS GOVERNING ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WHERE YOU RESIDE APPLY.
- The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its operative Commercial Arbitration Rules, including its Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules, available at https://www.adr.org/Rules. This Arbitration Clause will govern to the extent it conflicts with the arbitration provider’s rules.
- If the applicable arbitration provider is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitration provider. If the parties cannot agree on an appropriate alternative arbitration provider, the parties will ask a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitrator pursuant to 9 U.S.C. § 5. To the extent there is a dispute over which arbitration provider has jurisdiction, a AAA arbitrator will be appointed to resolve that dispute.
- Arbitration hearings will take place through videoconferencing, unless you and FASHIONPHILE agree upon another location in writing. A single arbitrator will be appointed.
- The arbitrator may award damages, declaratory or injunctive relief, and recoverable costs. Any arbitration award may be enforced (such as through a judgment) in any court with jurisdiction over the dispute. An arbitration award will have no preclusive effect in another arbitration or court proceeding involving FASHIONPHILE and a different individual. The arbitrator will have the exclusive authority to resolve all threshold arbitrability issues, including whether this Arbitration Clause is applicable, unconscionable, or enforceable, as well as any defenses to arbitration. However, a court has exclusive authority to rule on the Class Action Waiver in Section VII(f), including any claim that the section is unenforceable, illegal, void or voidable, or that it has been breached.
- If a request to proceed in small claims court (see Section VII(b)), is made after an arbitration has been initiated, but before an arbitrator has been appointed, such arbitration will be administratively closed. Any controversy over the small claims court’s jurisdiction will be determined by the small claims court.
- JURY TRIAL WAIVER. YOU AND FASHIONPHILE HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. YOU AND FASHIONPHILE ARE INSTEAD ELECTING THAT ALL DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED BY ARBITRATION UNDER THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN SECTION VII(B) ABOVE. COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW. DISCOVERY MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION, AND PROCEDURES ARE MORE STREAMLINED THAN IN COURT.
- CLASS ACTION WAIVER. YOU AND FASHIONPHILE AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN SECTION VII(G) BELOW, EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION BASIS.
- The parties hereby waive all rights to have any Dispute be brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated on a class, collective, representative, or mass action basis.
- Subject to this Arbitration Clause, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief to the party’s individual claim.
- Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Clause, if a court decides, in a final non-appealable decision, that the limitations of this Section VII(f) are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and FASHIONPHILE agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) will be severed from the arbitration and will be pursued in the courts specified in Section VII(d).
- BATCH PROCEEDINGS. TO INCREASE THE EFFICIENCY OF ADMINISTRATION AND RESOLUTION OF ARBITRATIONS, YOU AND FASHIONPHILE AGREE THAT IF 25 OR MORE SIMILAR ARBITRATION DEMANDS (THOSE ASSERTING THE SAME OR SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FACTS OR CLAIMS, AND SEEKING THE SAME OR SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR RELIEF), PRESENTED BY OR WITH THE ASSISTANCE OR COORDINATION OF THE SAME LAW FIRM(S) OR ORGANIZATION(S), ARE FILED WITHIN A ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY (180) DAY PERIOD (“MASS FILING”), THE PARTIES AGREE:
- to administer the Mass Filing in batches of 25 demands per batch (or less, if fewer than 25 remain) (“Batch Proceedings”) with only one batch filed, processed, and adjudicated at a time;
- to designate one arbitrator for each batch;
- to accept applicable fees, including any related fee reduction determined by AAA in its discretion or in accordance with its applicable rules;
- that no other demands for arbitration that are part of the Mass Filing may be filed, processed, or adjudicated until the prior batch of 25 is filed, processed, and adjudicated;
- that fees associated with a demand for arbitration included in a Mass Filing, including fees owed by FASHIONPHILE and the claimants, will only be due after your demand for arbitration is included in a set of batch proceedings and that batch is properly designated for filing, processing, and adjudication; and
- that the staged process of batched proceedings, with each set including 25 demands, will continue until each demand (including your demand) is adjudicated or otherwise resolved.
- Any statutes of limitation, including the requirement to file within one (1) year in Section VII(j) below, will remain tolled while any arbitration demands are held in abeyance. While the Batch Proceedings are adjudicated, no other demand for arbitration that is part of the Mass Filing may be processed, administrated, or adjudicated, and no filing or other administrative costs for such a demand for arbitration will be due from either party to the arbitration provider.
- All parties agree that arbitration demands are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario, raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. Any party may request that the arbitration provider appoint a sole standing administrative arbitrator (“Administrative Arbitrator”) to determine threshold questions such as (1) whether the Batch Proceeding process is applicable or enforceable, (2) whether particular demand(s) are part of a Mass Filing, and (3) whether demands within a Mass Filing were filed in accordance with this Arbitration Clause, including Section VII(c).
- To expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree that the Administrative Arbitrator may provide and use any procedures necessary to resolve the dispute promptly. FASHIONPHILE will pay the Administrative Arbitrator’s costs.
- The parties will work in good faith with the arbitrator to complete each Batch Proceeding within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days of its initial pre-hearing conference. The parties agree that the Batch Proceeding process is designed to achieve an overall faster, more efficient, and less costly mechanism for resolving Mass Filings.
- This Batch Proceedings provision will in no way be interpreted as increasing the number of claims necessary to trigger the applicability of AAA’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules, or authorizing class arbitration of any kind. Unless FASHIONPHILE otherwise consents in writing, FASHIONPHILE does not agree or consent to class arbitration, private attorney general arbitration, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as set forth in this Section VII(g).
- SETTLEMENT. AT LEAST TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS BEFORE THE DATE SET FOR THE ARBITRATION HEARING, YOU OR FASHIONPHILE MAY SERVE A WRITTEN OFFER OF JUDGMENT UPON THE OTHER PARTY TO ALLOW JUDGMENT ON SPECIFIED TERMS. IF THE OFFER IS ACCEPTED, THE OFFER WITH PROOF OF ACCEPTANCE WILL BE SUBMITTED TO THE ARBITRATION PROVIDER, WHO WILL ENTER JUDGMENT ACCORDINGLY. IF THE OFFER IS NOT ACCEPTED BEFORE THE EARLIER OF THE ARBITRATION HEARING OR THIRTY (30) CALENDAR DAYS AFTER IT IS MADE, IT WILL BE DEEMED WITHDRAWN, AND CANNOT SERVE AS EVIDENCE IN THE ARBITRATION. IF AN OFFER MADE BY ONE PARTY IS NOT ACCEPTED BY THE OTHER PARTY, AND THE OTHER PARTY FAILS TO OBTAIN A MORE FAVORABLE AWARD, THE OTHER PARTY WILL NOT RECOVER THEIR POST-OFFER COSTS AND WILL PAY THE OFFERING PARTY’S COSTS FROM THE TIME OF THE OFFER.
The parties agree that any disputes with respect to settlement offer(s) or offer(s) of judgment in a Mass Filing are to be resolved by a single arbitrator to the extent such offers contain the same material terms. For arbitrations involving represented parties, the represented parties’ attorneys agree to communicate individual offer(s) of judgment to each and every arbitration claimant or respondent to whom such offers are extended.
- ARBITRATION COSTS. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR IN A MASS FILING UNDER SECTION VII(G), YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY ANY FILING, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND ARBITRATOR COSTS WILL BE SOLELY AS SET FORTH IN THE APPLICABLE ARBITRATION PROVIDER’S RULES.
- 18-MONTH FILING DEADLINE. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION UNDER THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE (WITH THE EXCEPTION OF DISPUTES UNDER SECTION VII(B)(II) OR (III)) MUST BE FILED WITHIN EIGHTEEN (18) MONTHS AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE. OTHERWISE, THAT CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION WILL BE PERMANENTLY BARRED. THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS AND ANY ARBITRATION COST DEADLINES REMAIN TOLLED DURING THE REQUIRED INFORMAL PROCESS UNDER SECTION VII(C) ABOVE.
- OPT-OUT . YOU MAY REJECT THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION BY SENDING AN EMAIL TO [[email protected]] WITHIN THIRTY (30) CALENDAR DAYS OF FIRST ACCEPTING THESE TERMS. IF YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT, YOUR OPT-OUT NOTICE MUST BE SENT FROM THE EMAIL ADDRESS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR ACCOUNT. NO ONE MAY OPT-OUT ANOTHER PERSON. YOUR NOTICE TO OPT-OUT MUST INCLUDE YOUR FIRST AND LAST NAME, ADDRESS, THE EMAIL ADDRESS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR ACCOUNT (IF YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT), AND A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DECLINE THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE.
- SEVERABILITY. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION VII(F) ABOVE, IF ANY PROVISION OF THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE IS FOUND TO BE ILLEGAL OR UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THAT PROVISION WILL BE SEVERED. THE REMAINING PROVISIONS WILL STILL APPLY AND WILL BE INTERPRETED TO ACHIEVE THE CLOSEST POSSIBLE INTENT TO THE ORIGINAL INTENT OF THIS SECTION, INCLUSIVE OF THE SEVERED PROVISION.
- GOVERNING LAW; FORUM. THESE TERMS OF SERVICE ARE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT RESORT TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS. SUBJECT TO SECTION VII (DISPUTE RESOLUTION), YOU AND WE AGREE TO ONLY BRING DISPUTES AND ANY OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA. YOU AND WE CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS WILL NOT APPLY TO PRODUCTS OR THE INTERPRETATION OR CONSTRUCTION OF THESE TERMS OF SERVICE.
