- Limitation on Disclaimers of Warranty. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties, so some of the foregoing disclaimers may not apply to you insofar as they relate to implied warranties.
- INDEMNITY. You will indemnify us and our affiliates, partners, directors, employees, agents and representatives against, and hold us and them harmless from, any loss, liability, claim, demand, fees, and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees (collectively, “Claims“) made by any third party (which means anyone other than you) due to or arising out of your use of the LESKA Site or any LESKA Product, including, without limitation, any Claim whatsoever arising from your providing any third party with any LESKA Product.

- TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, OR LOSSES THAT WERE NOT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE TO YOU OR US AT THE TIME YOU AGREED TO THESE TERMS OF USE, IN EACH CASE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OF USE, AND UNDER CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY (COLLECTIVELY, “INDIRECT LOSSES”). LOSS OR DAMAGE IS FORESEEABLE IF EITHER IT IS OBVIOUS THAT IT WILL HAPPEN OR IF, AT THE TIME THE CONTRACT WAS MADE, BOTH YOU AND WE KNEW IT MIGHT HAPPEN.

- Some jurisdictions do not allow such limitations of liability, so these limitations may not apply to you.
- RETURNS AND REFUNDS. If you buy a LESKA Product on a Third-Party Site, returns and refunds will be subject to the applicable return and refund terms and conditions stated on such Third-Party Site. If such terms and conditions direct you back to us or the LESKA Site for such purposes, the following terms will apply:
- You may return a LESKA Product that you bought through a Third-Party Site only if the LESKA Product you received is different from the one you bought or if you received a damaged or expired LESKA Product. We will not accept the return of a LESKA Product for any other reason.
- If you wish to return a LESKA Product that you bought for one of those reasons, please contact hello@pregnancyleska.com and you will be assisted by our customer service team as soon as possible.
- We reserve the right to conduct an investigation of the facts underlying your return request and you agree to cooperate with us regarding any clarification with the Third-Party Site where you bought the LESKA Product.
- If we determine that you did in fact receive the wrong LESKA Product or a damaged or expired LESKA Product, we will offer you the choice of either an exchange at our expense, or a refund of the cost of the LESKA Product you bought and the corresponding shipping charges you incurred.
- You will need to provide us with certain information, such as your shipping address and your credit-card information, to be able to carry out such return or refund.
- GOVERNING LAW, JURISDICTION, AND TIME LIMIT ON CLAIMS. These Terms of Use will be governed by California law applicable to contracts to be performed in California, without regard to conflicts of laws. ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY LESKA PRODUCT OR ANY PART OF THESE TERMS OF USE, INCLUDING CLAIMS AND DISPUTES THAT AROSE BETWEEN US BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE TERMS OF USE, WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT, AS FOLLOWS:
- Before initiating any arbitration proceeding, you will first discuss the matter informally with us in good faith for at least 30 (thirty) days. To initiate such a discussion, please send your full name and contact information, your concern, and your proposed solution by mail to us at hello@pregnancyleska.com
- If we are unable to mutually agree upon a resolution after the 30-day period, any claim you may have against us regarding any LESKA Product, the LESKA Site or these Terms of Use will be resolved through binding arbitration administered by JAMS (https://www.jamsadr.com/) and governed by the then-current JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures.
- You must begin any arbitration WITHIN ONE YEAR after your claim arose, otherwise, your claim will be waived.
- You may arbitrate with us only in your individual capacity, not as a representative or member of a class (i.e., a group of people). That means that your claims may not be joined with any other claims and there will be no authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or brought by a purported class representative.
- Arbitration will be exclusively held in Los Angeles, California. Each party will be responsible for its own costs, including paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules. There will be a single arbitrator. In order to select an arbitrator, each party agrees to provide a list of two available arbitrators that have experience with the subject matter. Each party may strike one of the names on the other party’s list. The parties will select an arbitrator out of the remaining two arbitrator names. If the parties cannot mutually agree on one arbitrator, JAMS will choose the arbitrator randomly from the two remaining arbitrators. It is important that you understand that the arbitrator's decision will be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- Both you and we will keep all information about the arbitration and any arbitration award CONFIDENTIAL, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.
- In arbitration, (i) the arbitrator will not be authorized or empowered to award indirect or consequential damages, (ii) neither you nor we will seek punitive or exemplary damages, and (iii) the arbitrator may award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by such party in connection with the arbitration (“Prevailing Party’s Costs”). If the arbitrators determine one party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party prevailed on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims (if any), the arbitrator may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the Prevailing Party’s Costs.
- You acknowledge that by agreeing to arbitrate, YOU AND WE WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. In any litigation between you and us over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND WE WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL and elect instead to have the dispute resolved by a judge.
- You and we adopt and agree to implement the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure as it exists on the date of these Terms of Use with respect to any final award in an arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms of Use.
- Notwithstanding the statement made above with respect to applicable substantive law, any arbitration that is conducted pursuant to these Terms of Use will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. et seq., Secs. 1-16).
- If you have a claim that qualifies for resolution in small claims court, you may assert that claim in small claims court in Los Angeles, California, on an individual basis only (i.e., not as part of a class action and not as a member of any class).
- If you're not sure what all of this means, ask an attorney.
- ADDITIONAL TERMS. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If a court of competent jurisdiction or other judicial body holds any provision of these Terms of Use invalid, such court or body should try to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Use will remain in full force and effect.
