Moda may also provide you with notice, email being sufficient, and in such case, the amended Arbitration Agreement will be effective no earlier than the date specified in such notice (which will be at least 30 days therefrom), unless you reject any such change by sending an email to Moda at adr_notices@modaoperandi.com within 30 days of the notice, and by providing: (i) your full legal name, (ii) your complete mailing address, (iii) your phone number, (iv) the change(s) you are rejecting, (v) and email address associated with any purchase from Moda. This is not an opt out of arbitration altogether. In addition, your continued or subsequent agreement to these Terms and Conditions is acknowledgment of, and agreement to, the changes to the Arbitration Agreement (subject to a 30-day Opt-Out Period for those changes), notwithstanding any prior rejection to changes that you sent to us under this paragraph.3. Rules and ProceduresPre-Arbitration Procedures. In the event of a Dispute (other than an Excepted Dispute), you and Moda each agree to send the other party a written notice of Dispute. A notice of Dispute (“Notice of Dispute”) from you to Moda must be emailed to the Notice Address. Any Notice of Dispute must include (i) the claimant's full legal name, complete mailing address, and email address; (ii) a description of the nature and basis of the Dispute; (iii) any relevant facts regarding claimant's use of the Services or Products, including whether claimant receives any emails associated with the Services, whether claimant has made a purchase from Moda or on the Site, and if so, the date(s) of the purchase(s); and (iv) a personally signed statement from the claimant (and not their counsel) verifying the accuracy of the contents of the Notice. The Notice of Dispute must be individualized, meaning it can concern only your dispute and no other person's dispute. Moda will send any Notice of Dispute to you at the email address or mailing address it has for you, if any. After receipt of a Notice of Dispute, the parties shall, for a period of 60 days, engage in a good faith effort to resolve the Dispute. Any applicable limitations period (including statute of limitations) shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution procedures set forth in this subsection. All of the Pre-Arbitration Procedures are essential so that you and Moda have a meaningful opportunity to resolve disputes informally.Arbitration Procedures.If the parties cannot resolve the Dispute through the Pre-Arbitration Procedures above, you and Moda each agree that all Disputes shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court.All Disputes shall be submitted to National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) for arbitration before one arbitrator. The arbitration will be administered by NAM in accordance with NAM's Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures and, as applicable, Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures, then in effect (“NAM Rules”), except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written demand for arbitration as specified in the NAM Rules. As a requirement for the Dispute to be deemed properly filed, you and we agree that the party initiating arbitration must submit a certification that they have complied with the Pre-Arbitration Procedures and that they are a party to the Arbitration Agreement, a copy of which shall be enclosed with or attached to the demand for arbitration. The demand for arbitration and certification must be personally signed by the party initiating arbitration (and their counsel, if any). A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on NAM’s website at www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms/ and for additional information on how to commence an arbitration proceeding, you can contact NAM at customerservice@namadr.com.Notwithstanding any choice of law or other provision in these Terms and Conditions, 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 any proceedings under it. It is the intent of the parties that the FAA and the NAM Rules shall preempt all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. The laws of the state of Delaware, without regard to choice or conflict of law principles, shall govern (except as to California residents, in which case California law shall govern): (i) any issue regarding the interpretation or enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement to which the FAA and NAM Rules are found not to apply, and (ii) any other issue in a Dispute arbitrated hereunder.Any arbitration hearing will be conducted remotely by telephone or video conference to the extent practicable, but if the arbitrator determines, or the parties agree, that a hearing should be conducted in person, the arbitration hearing will take place as close to your residence as practicable, or another agreed upon locale. At the conclusion of the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. An arbitrator's award that has been fully satisfied shall not be entered in any court.As in court, you and Moda agree that any counsel representing a party in arbitration shall certify when initiating and proceeding in arbitration that they are complying with the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b) and any applicable state laws of similar import, including certification that the Dispute or relief sought is neither frivolous nor brought for an improper purpose. The arbitrator is authorized to impose any sanctions under the NAM Rules, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, or applicable federal or state law, against all appropriately represented parties and counsel.Except as expressly provided in the Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may grant any remedy, relief, or outcome that the parties could have received in court, including awards of attorneys' fees and costs, in accordance with applicable law. Moda reserves all rights and defenses as to each and any Dispute, demand for Arbitration, and claimant.Mass Filing Procedures.If NAM determines that 25 or more substantially similar arbitration demands presented by or with the assistance, coordination, or cooperation of the same law firm, group of law firms, cooperating law firms, or organization(s) are allowed to be submitted for arbitration, NAM's mass filing fee structure shall apply and the parties agree that the arbitrations will proceed in accordance with the batching process as follows: (i) NAM shall administer the arbitration demands in batches of at least 25 demands for arbitration of a substantially similar nature, with the discretion to create additional batches if NAM finds that they are necessary to facilitate the efficient resolution of demands; (ii) NAM shall provide for the concurrent resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one arbitrator, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any), and one final award; and (iii) following such determination of a mass filing, NAM shall apply a single set of admin and panel prep fees per batch in accordance with NAM's fee schedule. All parties agree that arbitrations are of a “substantially similar nature” for purposes of these Mass Filing Procedures if they arise out of or relate to the same or similar event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. These Mass Filing Procedures shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing class arbitrations of any kind.Arbitrator's Fees and Costs.You are responsible for all of your own costs (including any attorneys' fees) and any costs or fees as set forth in the applicable NAM fee schedule. If you do not timely pay any required fees to NAM, any refusal by Moda to pay such fees on your behalf shall not void or otherwise invalidate this Arbitration Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.Confidentiality.The parties agree that the arbitrator is authorized to issue an order requiring that confidential information of either party disclosed during the arbitration (whether in documents or orally) may not be used or disclosed except in connection with the arbitration or a proceeding to enforce the arbitration award and that any permitted court filing of confidential information must be done under seal to the furthest extent permitted by law.Requirement of Individualized Relief.The parties agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the arbitrator is authorized, upon either party's request, to award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual Dispute.5. Severability & SurvivalIf any provision or portion of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be void, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable, then that provision or portion shall be deemed to be severable and, if possible, superseded by a valid, enforceable provision, or portion thereof, that matches the intent of the original provision, or portion thereof, as closely as possible, and further, the remainder of this Arbitration Agreement shall continue to be enforceable and valid according to its terms, and you may still be bound to previous versions of this Arbitration Agreement by reason of your separate agreement to those previous versions.This Arbitration Agreement shall survive termination of these Terms and Conditions. Except as provided in subsections A(1) and A(3) above, the terms and conditions of this Arbitration Agreement shall supersede and replace any and all previous arbitration, dispute resolution, and/or class action/jury waiver agreements you may have entered into with Moda.B.

This limitation on class actions will not apply where prohibited by the laws of your country of residence.To the fullest extent permissible by applicable law, any dispute against a Moda Party must be filed within one year after such dispute or cause of action arose, or it will be forever barred.
