Website’s Terms of Use

As between you and Operator, Operator owns the Site, all the content (including, for example, audio, photographs, illustrations, graphics, other visuals, video, copy, software, etc.), code, data and materials on the Site, and the look and feel, design and organization of the Site. This includes all intellectual property and proprietary rights in these materials. When you use the Site or download materials from the Services, you do not acquire any ownership of any such content, code, data, or materials.

Except as we expressly permit, you may not download, display, copy, distribute, modify, perform, transfer, create derivative works from, sell, or otherwise exploit any content, code, data, or materials on the Site. Doing so may violate or infringe copyright and other laws of the United States and other countries, as well as applicable local and state laws, and may subject you to liability for such unauthorized use.

The trademarks, logos, service marks, and trade names (collectively the “Trademarks”) displayed on the Site are registered and unregistered Trademarks of Operator (or other rights holders, among which B&B Italia S.p.a., the producer of the Products sold through this website, with registered office at  Via Manzoni, n. 38, 22060 Milano (Italy)) and may not be used in any manner that is likely to cause customer confusion, or that disparages or discredits Operator or the applicable rights holder. You do not receive, by implication or otherwise, any license or right to use any Trademark displayed on the Site without our prior written permission.

When you use the Site, you may be asked to provide certain personal information to us (“User Information”). Our information collection and use policies with respect to such User Information are set forth in our Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy is part of these Terms. You are solely responsible for the accuracy and content of your User Information.

You are responsible for your use of the Services.

We prohibit certain kinds of conduct that may be harmful to other users or to us. When you use the Services, you may not:

• send unsolicited or unauthorized advertising or commercial communications, such as spam;
• transmit any malicious or unsolicited software;
• use any means to “scrape,” “crawl,” or “spider” any web pages contained on the Site;
• use automated methods to send more requests to the Operator servers in a given period of time than a human can reasonably produce in the same period by using a conventional web browser; or
• interfere with or disrupt the Site or any services available from the Site.

We reserve the right to refuse service and/or terminate access to the Site without prior notice for any user who violates these policies.

Your purchases on the Site or through the Services are subject to the Purchase Terms and Conditions which are incorporated in these Terms.

If you provide us with any ideas, know-how, concepts, techniques, comments, criticisms, reports, or other feedback (“Feedback”), whether oral or written, we may use them for any purpose. We may do so without notice to you and without paying any compensation to you. All Feedback is and will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary.

You will fully compensate us, our affiliates, and our and their directors, officers, employees, and agents (that is, you will indemnify and defend us and them, and hold us and them harmless) for any and all claims, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees costs, arising from your use of the Site or your breach or violation of law or these Terms.

We may, at our own expense, assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to compensation by you, and in such case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claim.

You may be able to access or use the Site from a third-party website, Internet resource, or software application (“Linked Sites”). You may also be able to access and use a Linked Site from a link available on the Services. We have no responsibility for Linked Sites. The inclusion of any link to such Linked Sites anywhere on the Site does not imply our endorsement, sponsorship, or recommendation of that site or of any product or service offered by that site. We do not promise that the contents of any Linked Site are accurate or compliant with local, state or federal law, including any intellectual property laws. Your use of any Linked Site is at your own risk and you assume all responsibilities and consequences resulting from such reliance.

THE SITE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTY OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND ALL SUCH WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS ARE DISCLAIMED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS WHATSOEVER REGARDING THE SITE OR SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES REGARDING INFORMATION AND CONTENT ON THE SITE; UPTIME OR UNINTERRUPTED ACCESS TO THE SITE; TITLE; OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE SECURE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR ERROR FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.

Using the Internet may expose you to certain risks. We are not responsible for any viruses that may infect your computer equipment or other property on account of your access to, use of, or browsing in the Site or from downloading any materials, data, text, images, video, or audio from the Site.

We try to ensure that the information posted on the Site is correct and up to date, but it may not be. We may change any of the information provided on the Site at any time and without any prior warning. We will not be liable for any inaccuracy or omission concerning any of the information provided on the Site.

THE FOREGOING EXCLUSIONS OF EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES MAY NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LOCAL LAWS. TO THE EXTENT OPERATOR MAY NOT, AS A MATTER OF APPLICABLE LAW, DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTY, THE SCOPE AND DURATION OF SUCH WARRANTY SHALL BE THE MINIMUM PERMITTED UNDER SUCH APPLICABLE LAW.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS, NEITHER OPERATOR NOR ITS AFFILIATES, NOR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM, OR DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY RELATED TO THE SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING FROM THE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES EXCEED $100.00, IN THE AGGREGATE.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO CERTAIN USERS.

TO THE EXTENT OPERATOR MAY NOT, AS A MATTER OF APPLICABLE LAW, LIMIT ITS LIABILITIES, THE EXTENT OF OPERATOR’S LIABILITY SHALL BE THE MINIMUM PERMITTED UNDER SUCH APPLICABLE LAW.

We will not be liable or responsible to you, nor be deemed to have defaulted or breached the Terms, for any failure or delay in our performance under the Terms when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, governmental actions, war, invasion or hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest, national emergency, revolution, insurrection, epidemic, pandemic, lockouts, strikes or other labor disputes (whether or not relating to our workforce), restraints or delays affecting carriers, inability to obtain or delay in obtaining adequate or suitable supplies, breakdown of materials or telecommunications, or power outage.

The Terms and the relationship between you and us shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.

Operator may change, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Site at any time. If you violate any of these Terms, your permission to use the Site automatically terminates.

You and Operator agree to resolve any disputes through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and Operator relating to the Site, the Services, or the interpretation, performance, or breach of these Terms (each a “Claim”) shall be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with to the JAMS/Endispute Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect as of the date hereof, including the Optional Appeal Procedure provided for in such rules (the “Arbitration Rules”). You and Operator hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim. The arbitration shall be conducted in New York City, New York, before a single neutral arbitrator appointed in accordance with the Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator’s decision shall be controlled by these Terms and any of the other agreements governing your use of the Services. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive damages against any party. The parties agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs, documents, or other evidence submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies.

YOU MAY NOT ACT AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, NOR PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS, WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM. CLAIMS MAY NOT BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. THE ARBITRATOR CAN DECIDE ONLY YOUR AND/OR OPERATOR’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF OTHER PERSONS OR PARTIES WHO MAY BE SIMILARLY SITUATED.

This section limits certain rights, including the right to maintain a court action, the right to a jury trial, the right to participate in any form of class or representative claim, the right to engage in discovery except as provided in the arbitration rules, and the right to certain remedies and forms of relief. Other rights that you or Operator would have in court also may not be available in arbitration.

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms is found to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the arbitrator or court should try to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms shall remain in full force and effect.

Operator may, at its sole discretion, change, add to or remove any portion of these Terms at any time. Changes in these Terms will be effective when posted on the Site. Your continued use of the Site and/or the services offered on or through the Site after any changes to these Terms are posted will be considered acceptance of those changes.
