- Order and Acceptance.
3.1 Order Acceptance Process
Each part of an order that you submit to JAXXON constitutes an offer to purchase merchandise. If you have placed your order through the Website, then, after JAXXON receives your order, you will receive an email from JAXXON confirming receipt of your order (usually in minutes). If you do not receive an email from JAXXON confirming receipt of an order that you placed, then please contact the JAXXON Customer Service before you attempt to place another order for the same merchandise. Please note that JAXXON's confirmation of receipt of your order does not equate to JAXXON's acceptance of your order. JAXXON is not deemed to have accepted any part of your order until the requested merchandise has been shipped and JAXXON has sent a shipment confirmation email.
3.2 Order Issues
(a) If JAXXON rejects your order due to an error in pricing and/or other information about the merchandise, then JAXXON will notify you at the email address that you have provided. Once the error has been corrected, JAXXON will ask you whether or not you would like to re-submit your order to purchase the relevant merchandise. If JAXXON has notified you that your order has been accepted by sending you a shipment confirmation email, then you will not be required to pay a price that is greater than the price that was displayed on the Website at the time at which you placed your order. If JAXXON has distributed merchandise that is different from the description of the relevant merchandise (as displayed on the Website at the time at which you placed your order), then you may request a return or an exchange. For additional details, please review the JAXXON Returns Policy
(b) Although it is unlikely that JAXXON would refuse to accept an order, JAXXON reserves the right to deny any order for any reason, including where the following situations arise: (i) insufficient information or errors in billing, payment, and/or shipping information; (ii) orders that cannot be processed due to erroneous information that you have provided, which includes, but is not limited to incorrect credit card or debit card number, expiration date, security value, or other incorrect information regarding payment types; (iii) suspected fraudulent information; or (iv) delayed shipment or unavailability of merchandise.
(c) JAXXON may refuse to accept any order if fraudulent activity is suspected. JAXXON may refuse to process any subsequent order from a customer who has a history of placing fraudulent orders.
(d) JAXXON may refuse any order that is connected with a previous credit card dispute.
3.3 Order Cancellation
If an item of merchandise is delayed out of the JAXXON fulfillment center or becomes unavailable, or if there is an error on the Website pertaining to the order (e.g. an error pertaining to the price and/or description of merchandise), then JAXXON may cancel the order. If this occurs, then JAXXON will contact you so that you are aware of the situation.
3.4 Restrictions on Resale
In order to protect JAXXON's intellectual property rights, any suspected resale of merchandise for personal and/or business profit is strictly prohibited. JAXXON will not accept any order that is deemed to possess characteristics of reselling. JAXXON reserves the right to cancel any subsequent order from a customer who has been suspected of reselling.

14.2 Termination
If timely payment cannot be charged to your Payment Provider for any reason, if you have materially breached any provision of the Terms, if we are required to do so by law (e.g., where the provision of any of JAXXON Properties is, or becomes, unlawful), or if we choose to discontinue JAXXON Properties (in part or in whole), we have the right to, immediately and without notice, suspend or terminate any JAXXON Properties provided to you. If we become aware of any possible violations by you of the Terms, we reserve the right to investigate such violations.

- Arbitration
16.1 Dispute Resolution
Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with JAXXON and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
(a) Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by JAXXON that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and JAXXON, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.
(b) Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to JAXXON should be sent to: 691 Randolph Ave, Costa Mesa, CA 92626. After the Notice is received, you and JAXXON may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and JAXXON do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.
(c) Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearing. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last settlement offer that JAXXON made to you prior to the initiation of arbitration, JAXXON will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.
(d) Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
(e) Time Limits. If you or JAXXON pursues arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the JAMS rules for the pertinent claim.
(f) Authority of Arbitrator. If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and JAXXON, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the JAMS rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and JAXXON.
(g)Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court.
(h)Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
(i) Confidentiality. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
(l) Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with JAXXON.
(m)Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or JAXXON may bring an individual action in small claims court.
(n)Emergency Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement.
(o) Claims Not Subject to Arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement.
(p) Courts. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within New York County, New York, for such purpose.
- General Provisions.
17.1 Governing Law
The Terms and any action related thereto will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the State of New York, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act, without giving effect to any principles that provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.
17.2 Electronic Communications
The communications between you and JAXXON use electronic means, whether you visit JAXXON Properties or send JAXXON e-mails, or whether JAXXON posts notices on JAXXON Properties or communicates with you via e-mail. For contractual purposes, you (1) consent to receive communications from JAXXON in an electronic form; and (2) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that JAXXON provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if it were to be in writing. The foregoing does not affect your statutory rights.
17.3 Release
You hereby release JAXXON Parties and their successors from claims, demands, any and all losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death, and property damage, that is either directly or indirectly related to or arises from third-party websites or your use of JAXXON Properties. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states, “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
17.4 Assignment
The Terms, and your rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred by you without JAXXON’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.

JAXXON shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargos, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, strikes or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.
17.6 Compliance
If you believe that JAXXON has not adhered to the Terms, please contact JAXXON by emailing us at contact@jaxxon.com. We will do our best to address your concerns. If you feel that your complaint has been addressed incompletely, we invite you to let us know for further investigation.
17.7 Notice
Where JAXXON requires that you provide an e-mail address, you are responsible for providing JAXXON with your most current e-mail address. In the event that the last e-mail address you provided to JAXXON is not valid, or for any reason is not capable of delivering to you any notices required/ permitted by the Terms, JAXXON’s dispatch of the e-mail containing such notice will nonetheless constitute effective notice. You may give notice to JAXXON at the following address: JAXXON, LLC, 691 Randolph Ave, Costa Mesa, CA 92626. Such notice shall be deemed given when received by JAXXON by letter delivered by nationally recognized overnight delivery service or first class postage prepaid mail at the above address.
17.8 Waiver
Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of the Terms on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.
17.9 Severability
If any provision of the Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of the Terms will remain enforceable, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
