Please read these Terms carefully before you begin using the Website. These Terms are legally binding and by accessing or using the Website, you are acknowledging that you have read, understand, and agree, without limitation or qualification, to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any of the Terms, you are not permitted to use the Website. 

By agreeing to these Terms, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, or that you are the age of majority in your state or province of residence and you have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use the Website.

We may amend the Terms by posting the amended version on our Website.  You agree that the foregoing will constitute sufficient and effective notice.  By continuing to use the Website more than 30 days after we post an amended version, you confirm your acceptance of, and agreement to, the Terms as amended. If you do not agree with any of the changes, you must immediately stop using the Website, and your license to use the Website will immediately terminate.

Certain areas within the Website may be governed by additional terms posted in or linked to such areas ("Additional Terms"). By using those areas of the Website, you agree to the Additional Terms. The Additional Terms are incorporated into these Terms, and any reference to these Terms includes the Additional Terms.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE REVIEW THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SET FORTH BELOW CAREFULLY, AS IT REQUIRES YOU TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH 7 VIRTUES ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND NOT BY A JURY TRIAL. BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND HAVE TAKEN TIME TO CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS IMPORTANT DECISION.


2 DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION AGREEMENT; CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER. 

BY AGREEING TO THE TERMS, YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE REQUIRED TO RESOLVE ANY CLAIM THAT YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST 7 VIRTUES ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS IN ARBITRATION, AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION. THIS WILL PRECLUDE YOU FROM BRINGING ANY CLASS, JOINT, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED ACTION (INCLUDING BY MASS ARBITRATION) AGAINST 7 VIRTUES, AND ALSO PRECLUDE YOU FROM PARTICIPATING IN OR RECOVERING RELIEF UNDER ANY CURRENT OR FUTURE CLASS, JOINT, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED ACTION, OR MASS ARBITRATION BROUGHT AGAINST 7 VIRTUES BY SOMEONE ELSE.

 

INITIAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND NOTIFICATION. You and 7 Virtues agree that, prior to initiating an arbitration or other legal proceeding, you and 7 Virtues will attempt to negotiate an informal resolution of the Dispute (as defined below). To begin this process, and before initiating any arbitration or legal proceeding against 7 Virtues, you must send a Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) by certified mail to the attention of the 7 Virtues Legal Department at the postal address set out in Section 20(h) below. For purposes of these Terms, initiating an arbitration means filing an arbitration demand (“Demand”).

Your Notice to 7 Virtues must contain all of the following information: (1) your full name, address, and relationship to 7 Virtues; (2) a detailed description of the nature and basis of the Dispute; (3) a description of the relief you want, including any money damages you request; and (4) your signature verifying the accuracy of the Notice and, if you are represented by counsel, authorizing 7 Virtues to disclose information about you to your attorney.

After receipt of your Notice, you and 7 Virtues shall engage in a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute for a period of 60 days, which both sides may extend by written agreement (“Informal Dispute Resolution Period”). During the Informal Dispute Resolution Period, neither you nor 7 Virtues may initiate an arbitration or other legal proceeding.

If the Dispute is not resolved during the Informal Dispute Resolution Period, either party may initiate an individual arbitration as provided below, except for Disputes (i) that may be brought in an individual action in small claims court, or (ii) that relate to the ownership or enforcement of intellectual property rights. In addition, you and 7 Virtues each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights. In any such case, your waiver of the right to a jury trial and the class action waiver set forth in this Arbitration Agreement shall continue to apply.

“Dispute” includes any dispute, action, or other controversy, whether based on past, present, or future events, between you and 7 Virtues concerning the Website or these Terms, whether in contract, tort, warranty, statute, regulation, or other legal or equitable basis. You and 7 Virtues empower the Arbitrator with the exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of these Terms or the formation of this contract, including the arbitrability of any Dispute and any claim that all or any part of the Terms are void or voidable.  

CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVERS. BY ENTERING INTO THE TERMS, YOU AND 7 VIRTUES EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. ADDITIONALLY, YOU AND 7 VIRTUES AGREE THAT EACH MAY ONLY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND THAT THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, JOINT, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING (INCLUDING ANY MASS ARBITRATION) OR ON BASES INVOLVING CLAIMS BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC, OTHER USERS, OR ANY OTHER PERSONS. As such, you and 7 Virtues acknowledge and agree that each waives any right to participation as a plaintiff or a class member in a class action litigation or arbitration (including mass arbitration), or in any other collective or consolidated action, with respect to a Dispute. Neither you nor 7 Virtues may be a representative of any other potential claimants or class of potential claimants in any such Dispute, nor may two or more users’ disputes be consolidated or otherwise determined in one proceeding. This will also preclude you and 7 Virtues from participating in or recovering relief under any current or future class, joint, collective, representative, or consolidated action or mass arbitration brought by someone else.

A. Rules and Governing Law. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes, and the Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules (“AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.

Notwithstanding any choice of law or other provision in the Terms, the parties agree and acknowledge that this Arbitration Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”), will govern its interpretation and enforcement and proceedings pursuant thereto. It is the intent of the parties that the FAA and AAA Rules shall preempt all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA and AAA Rules are found to not apply to any issue that arises under this Arbitration Agreement or the enforcement thereof, then that issue shall be resolved under the laws of the state of Delaware.

B. Initiating ArbitrationA party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration - Consumer Arbitration Rules at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Arbitrator will be either (1) a retired judge or (2) an attorney specifically licensed to practice law in the state of Delaware, and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an Arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the proposed list of arbitrators by the AAA, then the AAA will appoint the Arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

C. Location and Procedures. If the claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and 7 Virtues submit to the Arbitrator, unless you request a hearing and the Arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If the claim exceeds $10,000, arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online, and your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Proceedings that cannot be conducted through the submission of documents, by phone, or online, will take place in Kings County, New York or in another jurisdiction to which you and 7 Virtues agree in writing; provided, however, that if circumstances prevent you from traveling to New York, the AAA may hold an in-person hearing in the state where you reside. Subject to the AAA Rules, the Arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.
D. Arbitrator’s Decision. The Arbitrator will render a written award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules and shall provide a written decision with a statement of reasons if requested by either party. The Arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief, but only in favor of the individual claimant, and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant's individual claim. The Arbitrator shall not have authority to entertain any claim on behalf of a person who is not a named party, nor shall the Arbitrator have authority to make any award for the benefit of, or against, any person who is not a named party. The Arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on all parties. The Arbitrator’s decision and judgment thereon shall have no precedential or collateral estoppel effect. 
You and 7 Virtues agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts located in Kings County, New York in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
E. Fees. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. 7 Virtues will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (based on the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). The right to recover attorneys’ fees and expenses set forth in this Arbitration Agreement supplements any right to attorneys’ fees and expenses you may have under applicable law. You may not, however, recover duplicative awards of attorneys' fees or costs.

F. Severability. If any part of this Arbitration Agreement (Section 2), other than the class action waiver, is deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder shall be enforceable. The class action waiver is non-severable and if it is deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason, the whole Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void.


G. Opt-Out of Arbitration Agreement: You can opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement and it will not affect any other terms and conditions of these Terms or your relationship with us.  To opt-out, you must email 7 Virtues at [INSERT EMAIL, e.g., arbitrationoptout@the7virtues.com and providing the following information: (1) your full name; (2) the URL of these Terms; (3) your mailing address; (4) your phone number; (5) and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the Arbitration Agreement portion of the Terms (the “Opt-Out Notice”).

                  20. Miscellaneous.

                  1. Term and Termination.  We reserve the right to condition your license to access and use the Website on your agreement to, and compliance with, these Terms.  We also reserve the right to terminate your license to access and use the Website, at any time, for any reason or no reason, in our sole discretion.  You may terminate these Terms by discontinuing your use of the Website.  Notwithstanding such a termination, Sections 2, 5, 10, 14, 16, 17, 18 and 19 of the Terms will remain in force, and you will continue to be liable for all your activities during the time you used the Website.
                  2. Severability. Subject to Section 2(F), you and 7 Virtues agree that if any portion of these Terms is found unlawful or unenforceable, in whole or in part, that provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such finding and as to such jurisdiction, without affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of these Terms, which will be enforced to the fullest extent of applicable law.
                  3. Choice of Law; Venue.  Except as set forth in the Arbitration Agreement above, you and 7 Virtues agree that these Terms and any dispute of any nature that might arise between you and 7 Virtues will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Delaware without giving effect to its conflict or choice of laws principles. You and 7 Virtues agree that any action at law or in equity that is not subject to the arbitration clause in Section 2 above shall be filed, and that venue properly lies, only in the state or federal courts located in Kings County New York, United States of America, and you and 7 Virtues expressly consent and submit to the exclusive and personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating such action. 
                  4. Assignment.  We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms, in whole or in part, to any person or entity at any time with or without your approval.  You may not assign any of the rights or obligations you have under these Terms without our prior written approval.  Any such assignment without our prior written approval is ineffective and in violation of these Terms.
                  5. Entire Agreement.  These Terms, including any Additional Terms or policies referenced in the Terms, are the entire agreement between you and 7 Virtues with respect to the use of the Website.  They supersede all prior and/or contemporaneous understandings, regardless of the medium (oral, written, or electronic) and practice (custom, policy, course of business, precedent) by which such understandings were communicated.
                  6. No Waiver.  Our failure to enforce any right or provision in these Terms shall not constitute a waiver or relinquishment of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by us in writing.
                  7. Notices to 7 Virtues.  All notices given by you or required from you under these Terms must be in writing and addressed to us at the postal address set forth below in the “Contact Information” section. Any notices that you provide without compliance with this subsection will have no legal effect.
