Arbitration
Please read this “Arbitration” section carefully. It affects rights that you may otherwise have. It provides for resolution of most disputes through arbitration instead of through court trials and class actions. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court, uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and discovery is more limited. Arbitration is final and binding and subject to only very limited review by a court. This arbitration clause shall survive termination of these Terms of Use and/or your participation in the Yogurt Mill Rewards program.
Binding Arbitration. This provision is intended to be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, your access to or participation in Yogurt Mill Rewards, the Yogurt Mill Cards registered to your Yogurt Mill Rewards account, if any, or your relationship with Yogurt Mill. Any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, your access to or participation in Yogurt Mill Rewards, or your relationship with Yogurt Mill or any subsidiary, parent or affiliate company or companies (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory) will be resolved by binding arbitration, except that either of us may take claims to small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such a court.
Opt-Out. Notwithstanding the above, you may choose to pursue your claim in court and not by arbitration if you opt out of this arbitration provision within thirty (30) days from the date you registered for a Yogurt Mill Rewards account (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). You may opt out of these arbitration procedures by sending Yogurt Mill written notice that you opt out to the following address: Yogurt Mill Team, Yogurt Mill, Inc., 4600 Glass Court, Suite A, Modesto, Ca 95356. Any opt out received after the Opt-Out Deadline (allowing three (3) additional days for mailing) will not be valid, and you must pursue your claim in arbitration or small claims court, as the case may be.
Arbitration Procedures. For all disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first send a written description of your claim to our Customer Service department @ loyalty@yogurtmill.com to allow us an opportunity to resolve the dispute. You and we each agree to negotiate your claim in good faith. You may request arbitration if your claim or dispute cannot be resolved within sixty (60) days.
The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA“), including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by these Terms of Use. The AAA Rules and information about arbitration and fees are available online at www.adr.org. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim, and must follow and enforce these Terms of Use, as a court would. Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor Yogurt Mill may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction.
Class Action Waiver and Jury Waiver. You and we each agree that any proceeding, whether in arbitration or in court, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If a court or arbitrator determines in an action between you and us that this class action waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration agreement will be void as to you. If you opt out of the arbitration provision as specified above, this class action waiver provision will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other customer, can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out procedure set forth above. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, you and we each waive any right to a jury trial.
Governing Law
Any dispute arising from these Terms or your access to or participation in Yogurt Mill Rewards will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of California, without regard to conflicts of law rules or principles. Any dispute between you and Yogurt Mill that is not subject to arbitration, will be resolved in the state or federal courts having jurisdiction over Stanislaus County, California.
Program Changes
Yogurt Mill reserves the right to change these Terms or to eliminate Yogurt Mill Rewards at any time and in its sole discretion. Any changes or modifications will be effective immediately upon either (i) posting the revisions at www.yogurtmill.com or (ii) notice to you via email to the email address you provide when registering for the program.
