3.Account Types, Registration, and Access Controls

a. Service Use and Account Types

You may use the Service without registering for an account. However, certain features of the Service may require you to create an account.

Users can create an account on the Service to purchase Generosity™ Foundation merchandise and other products (an “Account”). Creating an Account is not required to purchase any merchandise or other products on the Service; however, having an Account may allow you to access certain content on the Service or receive other benefits, at Company’s sole discretion.

b. Account Registration

If we request registration information from you to set up an Account, you must provide us with accurate and complete information and must update the information when it changes. You may not access any age-restricted portion of the Service unless you are above the required age. The Service is not intended for persons under the age of thirteen (13). The Service’s practices governing any resulting collection and use of your personal information are disclosed in our Privacy Policy.

 If you register for any feature that requires a password and/or username, then you will select your own password at the time of registration (or we may send you an email notification with a randomly generated initial password) and you agree to the following:

  • (i) You will not use a username (or email address) that is already being used by someone else, may impersonate another person, belongs to another person, violates the intellectual property or other right of any person or entity, or is offensive. We may reject the use of any password, username, or email address for any other reason in our sole discretion.

  • (ii) You will provide true, accurate, current, and complete registration information about yourself in connection with the registration process and, as permitted, to maintain and update it continuously and promptly to keep it accurate, current, and complete.

  • (iii) You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for restricting access to your device so that others may not access any password protected portion of the Service using your name, username, or password. You are solely responsible for all activities that occur under your account, password, and username—whether or not you authorized the activity. We are not responsible for any loss or damage resulting from unauthorized use.

  • (iv) You will not sell, transfer, or assign your account or any account rights.

If you have reason to believe that someone is using your account without your permission, you should contact us immediately. If any information that you provide, or if we have reasonable grounds to suspect that any information that you provide, is false, inaccurate, outdated, incomplete, or violates these Terms or any applicable law, then we may suspend or terminate your account. We also reserve the more general and broad right to terminate your account or suspend or otherwise deny you access to it or its benefits—all in our sole discretion, for any reason, and without advance notice or liability, per Section 12 below.

c. Identity Authentication

You authorize us, directly or through third parties, to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate your identity. This may include asking you for further information, requiring you to provide your date of birth, and other information that will allow us to reasonably identify you, requiring you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email address or financial instruments, ordering a credit report, or verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents at any time. If you use certain services on the Service, federal law may require that we verify some of your information. Company reserves the right to close, suspend, or limit access to your account and/or the Service in the event we are unable to obtain or verify this information.

4. Content and Licenses

The audio and video materials, photographs, text, graphics, logos, layouts, designs, interfaces, software, data, trademarks and trade dress, copyrightable material, the “look and feel” of the Service, and any other content associated with the Service (collectively, the “Content”) are protected by intellectual property and other laws in the U.S. and in other countries. You must comply with all such laws and applicable copyright, trademark, or other legal notices or restrictions. You shall not remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or other legal notices marked on the Content.

As between you and Company, Company will retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Service and the Content. No transfer of ownership to any portion of the Content shall be made as a result of any access you are granted.

The foregoing limited license: (i) does not give you any ownership of, or any other intellectual property interest in, any Content, and (ii) may be immediately suspended or terminated for any reason, in Company’s sole discretion, and without advance notice or liability. In some instances, we may permit you to have greater access to and use of Content, subject to certain Additional Terms.

Without limiting the foregoing, you may not modify, interfere with, enhance, remove, or otherwise alter in any way any portion of the Company video player (the “Video Player”); any of the Video Player’s underlying technology; or any digital rights management mechanism, device, or other content protection or access control measure incorporated into the Video Player. This restriction includes, without limitation, disabling, modifying, reverse engineering, interfering with, or otherwise circumventing the Video Player in any manner that enables users to view Content without: (i) visibly displaying both the Video Player and all surrounding elements (including the graphical user interface, any advertising, copyright notices, and trademarks) of the webpage where the Video Player is located; and (ii) having full access to all functionality of the Video Player, including, without limitation, all video quality and display functionality and all interactive, elective or click-through advertising functionality.

5. Terms Applicable to Purchases

a. Generally

To purchase any products or services we make available in our online stores on the Service, you must be at least eighteen (18) years of age or the applicable age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence or if you are a minor, have a valid credit card where an adult has listed you as an authorized user of their card. Prior to the purchase of any products or services, you must provide us with a valid credit card number and associated payment information including all of the following: (i) your name as it appears on the card; (ii) your credit card number; (iii) the credit card type; (iv) the date of expiration; and (v) any activation numbers or codes needed to charge your card or otherwise use a valid gift card. By submitting that information to us or our third party credit card processor, you agree that you authorize us and/or our processor to charge your card at our convenience but within thirty (30) days of credit card authorization. For any product or service that you order on the Service, you agree to pay the price applicable (including any sales taxes and surcharges) as of the time you submit the order. Company will automatically bill your credit card or other form of payment submitted as part of the order process for such price. Please note that we do not provide price protection or refunds in the event of a price drop or promotional offering. 

b. Methods Of Payment, Credit Card Terms, and Taxes

 All payments must be made by Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, Diners Club, Shop Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Meta Pay, PayPal, Amazon Pay, or alternative payment forms approved by Company and available on Company’s website. We currently do not accept cash, personal, or business checks or any other payment form on the Service, although in the future we may change this policy. Your card issuer agreement governs your use of your designated card, and you must refer to that agreement and not these Terms to determine your rights and liabilities as a cardholder. You represent and warrant that you will not use any credit card or other form of payment unless you have all necessary legal authorization to do so. YOU, AND NOT COMPANY, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ANY UNAUTHORIZED AMOUNTS BILLED TO YOUR CREDIT CARD BY A THIRD PARTY. You agree to pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with your purchases (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. Unless you notify Company of any discrepancies within sixty (60) days after they first appear on your credit card statement, you agree that they will be deemed accepted by you for all purposes. If Company does not receive payment from your credit card issuer or its agent, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand by Company or its agents. Sales taxes, or other taxes, customs, import/export charges, or similar governmental charges are not included in the price of the products. You are responsible for paying any such taxes or charges imposed on your purchases, including, but not limited to, sales, use or value-added taxes. Company shall automatically charge and withhold the applicable tax for orders to be delivered to addresses within and any states or localities that it deems is required in accordance with our order policy in effect at the time of purchase.

c. Return Policy

 All purchase transactions made through the Service are subject to Company’s Return Policy in effect at the time of purchase. 

d. Order Acceptance Policy

Your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. Company reserves the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline your order (or otherwise cancel your order) for any reason. Company further reserves the right any time after receipt of your order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item or refuse to fulfil your order (in whole or in part). Your order will be deemed accepted by Company upon our delivery of products or services that you have ordered. We may require additional verifications or information before accepting any order. Unlike in-stock orders, certain products or services may be made-on-demand and may be shipped to you directly from the third party on-demand vendor and subject to additional delay due to production methods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that, if we cancel all or a portion of your order or if we provide you less than the quantity you ordered, your sole and exclusive remedy is either that: (i) we will issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount charged for the cancelled portion or the quantity not provided (if your credit card has already been charged for the order) or (ii) we will not charge your credit card for the cancelled portion of the order or the quantity not provided. Do not assume that a cancellation or change of an order you have placed with Company has been processed until you receive a confirmation from Company via email or the Service. As stated above, you will be responsible for, and your credit card or third-party payment account may be charged for, the payment of all fees associated with orders already processed or shipped before your cancellation/change request or a request to terminate your account was received. We may refuse any order that is connected with a previous credit card dispute or previous apparent fraudulent activity. We may refuse to accept any order if fraudulent activity is suspected and we may refuse to process any subsequent order from a customer who has a history of placing fraudulent orders.

e. No Responsibility To Sell Mispriced Products or Services

We do our best to describe every item, product or service offered on this Service as accurately as possible. However, we are human, and therefore we do not warrant that specifications or pricing on the Service is complete, accurate, reliable, current, or error-free. We cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, availability and services, including for any items sold by third parties (if any). We reserve the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time without prior notice (including after a purchase has been made). We reserve the right to modify or cancel orders for any reason, including for typographical, pricing and other errors, at any time, and we shall have no liability of any kind for such errors. If we charged your credit card or other account prior to cancellation, we will issue a credit to your account in the amount of the charge. If we accept and process your order where a pricing or specification error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognized by you as a mispricing or misdescription, we may cancel the sale, refund you any sums you have paid, and require the return of any goods provided to you under the order. Additional terms may apply. 

f. Modifications To Prices Or Billing Terms

The purchase of products and services on the Service is subject to availability. All descriptions, images, references, features, content, information, specifications, products and prices described or depicted in connection with the Service are subject to change at any time without notice. If a product you purchased from Company is not as described, your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition, undamaged, in the original packaging, and otherwise in accordance with our Return Policy, to receive a refund for such product. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES DISPLAYED ON THE SERVICE MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES AND MAY BE SUBSTITUTED OR DISCONTINUED AT ANY TIME. COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT, AT ANY TIME, TO CHANGE ITS PRICES AND BILLING METHODS FOR SERVICES SOLD, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY UPON POSTING ON THE SERVICE OR BY EMAIL DELIVERY TO YOU.  

g. Offers and Discounts

For promotional offers, such as coupons, vouchers, and discounts, restrictions may apply. See offer for full terms and conditions applicable thereto. Offers are not valid on previously purchased online merchandise, merchandise purchased through third parties, gift cards, taxes, or shipping and handling, and there is no cash value. Limit one (1) offer per order. Offers may not be combined with other offers or promotions. Offers are not valid if reproduced and they are only accepted for a limited time. Please read the details of each offer, as coupons and promotional code restrictions vary. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, impose conditions on or cancel offers at any time without notice. If you return any of the items purchased with a discount offer, the discount or value may be subtracted from the return credit. We have no obligation for payment of any tax in conjunction with the distribution or use of any offer. You are required to pay any applicable sales tax related to the use of the offer.

Generosity™ Foundation
Attn: Copyright Agent

  • identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material;

  • a statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

  • a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Upon receipt of a notice of claimed infringement that satisfies these requirements (or any statement in conformance with the DMCA), we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to any Content that is claimed to be infringing upon the copyright of any person under the laws of the United States and will terminate the access privileges of those who repeatedly infringe on the copyrights of others. Company may elect to not respond to DMCA notices that do not substantially comply with all of the foregoing requirements, and Company may elect to remove allegedly infringing material that comes to its attention via notices that do not substantially comply with the DMCA.

Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability, including substantial penalties.

If you believe that any content on the Service violates your intellectual property rights other than copyright, please contact our Copyright Agent via mail or email using the contact information above. Your communication must:

  • state your full name, address, telephone number, and email address;

  • identify the material that is claimed to violate your rights or to be the subject of activity that violates your rights and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; and

  • explain what rights you have and why you believe the material violates your rights.

 b. Counter Notification

If access on the Service to a work that you submitted to Company is disabled or the work is removed as a result of a DMCA notice, and if you believe that the disabled access or removal is the result of mistake or misidentification, then you may send us a DMCA counter-notification via mail or email using the contact information above.

Your DMCA counter-notification should contain the following information:

  • a legend or subject line that says: “DMCA Counter-Notification”;

  • your full name, address, telephone number, email address, and any username of your account;

  • a description of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled (please include the URL or page of the Service from which the material was removed or access to it disabled);

  • a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;

  • a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if the address is located outside the United States, to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Central District of California), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided DMCA notification to us or an agent of such person; and

  • your electronic or physical signature.

Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability, including substantial penalties.

If we receive a DMCA counter-notification, then we may replace the material that we removed (or stop disabling access to it) in not less than ten (10) and not more than fourteen (14) business days following receipt of the DMCA counter-notification. However, we will not do this if we first receive notice at the addresses above that the party who sent us the DMCA notice has filed a lawsuit asking a court for an order restraining the person who provided the material from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Service. You should also be aware that we may forward the counter-notification to the party who sent us the DMCA notice.

7. User Content and Guidelines

a. User Content

The Service may allow you to submit or transmit audio, video, text, comments, information, feedback, ideas or other materials, including so-called “user generated content” (collectively, “User Content”) to or through the Service. When you provide User Content, you grant to Company and its affiliates and partners a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, fully sublicenseable license to use, reproduce, archive, edit, translate, create derivative works of, make available, distribute, sell, display, perform, transmit, broadcast and in any other way exploit that User Content, and any names, voices, likenesses and other identifying information of persons that is part of that User Content, in any form, media, software, or technology of any kind now known or developed in the future, including, without limitation, for developing, manufacturing, and marketing products and for inclusion of the Generosity™ Foundation, on a CD or DVD, or in any other electronic or non-electronic media or format currently existing or later developed. You hereby waive any moral rights you may have in your User Content.

If you owned User Content before providing it to us, you will continue owning it after providing it to us, subject to any rights granted in these Terms and any access granted to others. Please note that if you delete User Content from the Service:

  • The User Content may still exist in our backup copies, which are not publicly available.

  • If your User Content was shared with third parties, those third parties may have retained copies of your User Content, and neither we nor our affiliates have any responsibility for any uses of your User Content that they might make.

  • We retain the license specified above.

We may refuse or remove User Content without notice to you. However, we have no obligation to use or monitor your User Content or provide you with credit or attribution to your User Content. You agree that neither we nor our affiliates will be liable for User Content or any loss or damage resulting from User Content.

We do not guarantee that User Content will be private, even if the User Content is in a password-protected area. Accordingly, you should not provide User Content that you want protected from others. You acknowledge that the Internet and mobile communications may be subject to breaches of security and that you are aware that submissions of User Content may not be secure, and you will consider this before submitting any User Content. You bear all responsibility for your User Content.

b. User Content Guidelines

You must comply with these User Content Rules (“Rules”) when submitting or posting User Content on the Service:

  • Maintain appropriate rights in your content.  You represent and warrant that the material is either fully original to you or that you have all the necessary rights, licenses, permissions, clearances and consents needed from third parties in order for you to submit your User Content (including, but not limited to, all copyright and right of publicity and privacy rights) for you to comply with these Terms. Your User Content should not contain any visible logos, phrases, or trademarks that belong to third parties (other than Generosity™ Foundation). Do not use any User Content that belongs to other people and pass it off as your own; this includes any content that you might have found elsewhere on the Internet or other source. If anyone contributes to your User Content or has any rights to your User Content, or if anyone appears or provides services in the User Content, then you must also have their permission to submit such User Content to Company. (For example, if someone has taken a video of you and your friend, and you submit that video to Company as your User Content, then you must obtain your friend’s and the videographer’s permission to do so.) We may require, at any time, proof of the permissions referred to above in a written form acceptable to us.  Failure to provide such proof may lead to, among other things, such User Content being rejected from posting on or taken down from the Service.

  • Act appropriately. All of your Service activities must be venue appropriate, as determined by us. Be respectful of others’ opinions and comments. If you think your User Content might offend someone or be embarrassing to someone, then chances are it probably will and it doesn’t belong on the Service. Cursing, harassing, bullying, stalking, insulting comments, personal attacks, gossip, and similar actions are prohibited. Your User Content must not threaten, abuse, or harm others, and it must not include any negative comments that are connected to race, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or physical handicap. Your User Content must not be defamatory, slanderous, indecent, obscene, pornographic, or sexually explicit.      

  • Do not use for inappropriate purposes. Your User Content must not promote any infringing, illegal, or other similarly inappropriate activity. Do not submit content in order to sell or attempt to sell products or services offered by you or others.

  • Be honest and do not misrepresent yourself or your content.  Do not impersonate any other person, user, or company, and do not submit User Content that you believe may be false, fraudulent, deceptive, inaccurate, or misleading, or that misrepresents your identity or affiliation with a person or company.

  • Others may see.  User Content that you submit on the Service may be accessible and viewable by other users. Do not submit personally identifying information (e.g., first and last name together, password, phone number, address, credit card number, medical information, email address, or other personally identifiable information or contact information) unless, and in the form and by the method, specifically requested by Company, and take care when disclosing this type of information to others.  

  • Do not share other peoples’ personal information. Your User Content should not reveal another person’s address, phone number, email address, social security number, credit card number, medical information, financial information, or any other information that may be used to track, contact, or impersonate that individual, unless, and in the form and by the method, specifically requested by Company.

  • Do not damage the service or anyone’s computers or other devices.  Your User Content must not submit viruses, Trojan horses, spyware or any other technologies or malicious code that could impact the operation of Company or any computer or other device. Do not modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile or create any derivative products based on Company, including any files, tables or documentation, nor attempt to regenerate any source code, algorithms, methods or techniques. Do not use automated scripts to collect information from Company.

If you submit User Content that Company reasonably believes violates these Rules, then we may take any legally available action that we deem appropriate, in our sole discretion. However, we are not obligated to take any action not required by law. We may require, at any time, proof of the permissions referred to above in a form acceptable to us. Failure to provide such proof may lead to, among other things, the User Content in question being removed from the Service.

You are solely responsible for your interaction with other users of the Service, whether online or offline. We are not responsible or liable for the conduct or content of any user. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor or become involved in disputes between you and other users. Exercise common sense and your best judgment in your interactions with others (e.g., when you submit any personal or other information) and in all of your other online activities.

8. Third-Party Content

We may provide third-party content (including advertisements) or link to third-party websites on the Service. We do not necessarily endorse or evaluate third-party content and websites, and we do not assume responsibility for third parties’ actions or omissions. You should review third parties’ terms of use and privacy policies before you use their services. In certain instances, you may be able to interact with certain third party social media sites ("Social Media Sites") through the Service, including, without limitation, Facebook and Twitter. Please see our Privacy Policy for additional information regarding your interaction with Social Media Sites through the Service.

9. No Medical or Personal Advice

This Service and its Content (including any information provided by users) are for informational and entertainment purposes only and are not intended to replace or substitute for any professional medical, financial, legal, or other advice. The Company Parties (defined below) make no representations or warranties and expressly disclaim any and all liability concerning any treatment or action by any person following the information offered or provided within or through the Service. If you have specific concerns or a situation in which you require professional or medical advice, you should consult with an appropriately trained and qualified specialist.

 

10. Mobile Features

a. Mobile Features

The Service may offer features and services that are available to you via your mobile phone or other mobile device, including the ability to receive messages from the Service (collectively, the “Mobile Features”). Your wireless provider may charge for use of Mobile Features, including fees for receipt of text messages or data transmission. In order to receive Mobile Features, your wireless provider may require you to subscribe to additional services, which may require additional fees. These fees are not charged by us, and you should contact your wireless provider before you sign up for Mobile Features to determine what fees, if any, will be charged. If you have registered via the Service for Mobile Features, then you agree to notify us of any changes to your wireless contact information (including phone number) and update your accounts on the Service to reflect the changes. 

Except as provided in these Terms, you may not transfer or copy any Content from the wireless device on which you originally received Content to any other device, including, without limitation, any computer or another wireless device. Privacy Policy.

b. Telephone and Mobile Communications and Agreement To Be Contacted

Company may offer from time to time a text message or other SMS program (the “SMS Program”), through which it sends periodic autodialed text or SMS messages with Company or third party offers, such as coupons and discounts. You will only receive these autodialed text/SMS marketing messages if you have opted in to the recurring text/SMS message program, and you are not required to opt in to make a purchase from Company. Although the SMS Program is free, message and data rates may apply. You should check with your wireless carrier if you have questions about your plan and its coverage. To sign up for the SMS Program, text XXXXX to XXXXXXX. To stop receiving marketing text/SMS messages from Company, reply STOP to the last message received, or to XXXXXX. You may receive a single subsequent text/SMS message confirming your opt-out. For more information, reply HELP to the last message received, or to XXXXX, or contact us at info@thegenerosityfoundation.org.

By signing up via text, you agree to receive recurring automated promotional and personalized marketing text messages (e.g. cart reminders) from Generosity™ Foundation at the cell number used when signing up. Consent is not a condition of any purchase. Reply HELP for help and STOP to cancel. Msg frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. 

c. Providing Telephone Numbers and Other Contact Information

You verify that any contact information provided to Company, including, but not limited to, your name, mailing address, email address, your residential or business telephone number, and/or your mobile telephone number, is true and accurate. You verify that you are the current subscriber or owner of any telephone number that you provide. You are strictly prohibited from providing a phone number that is not your own. If we discover that any information provided in connection with your account is false or inaccurate, we may suspend or terminate your account at any time. Should any of your contact information change, including ownership of your telephone numbers, you agree to immediately notify us before the change goes into effect by texting STOP to all of our shortcodes to which you are subscribed, which may include, but are not limited to: XXXXXX, contacting us at info@thegenerosityfoundation.org.   

d. Your Consent to Receive Automated Calls/Texts

You acknowledge that by voluntarily providing your telephone number(s), you expressly agree to receive artificial voices, prerecorded voice messages, and/or autodialed calls and text messages (such as SMS, MMS, or successor protocols or technologies) from us, our agents, and affiliates related to your account(s), transactions, offers regarding products or services, and/or your relationship with Company (e.g., cart reminders). You acknowledge that automated calls or text messages may be made to your telephone number(s) even if your telephone number(s) is registered on any state or federal Do Not Call list.

You may opt-out at any time. To opt-out of text messages, text STOP to any text message you receive or text STOP to shortcode 59627 and specify that you want to opt out of text messages. You may also text HELP for help. You acknowledge and agree to receive a final text message confirming your opt-out. We may use different shortcodes for different messaging purposes, so texting STOP to one shortcode will not effectuate a stop request for all shortcodes to which you are subscribed. If you would like to stop messages from multiple shortcodes, text STOP to each shortcode to which you would like to unsubscribe. It is your sole responsibility to notify us if you no longer want to receive automated text messages. You waive any rights to bring claims for unauthorized or undesired text messages by failing to opt-out immediately or by failing to follow these instructions. Please allow up to thirty (30) days to process any opt-out request.

You and we agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Section 16 shall survive termination of these Terms.

In circumstances in which the Arbitration Rules provide for an in-person hearing, such hearing will take place in the U.S. county (or parish) of your residence, or otherwise in Los Angeles, California.

You and we will pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees and other costs (and please note that you will be responsible for a portion or percentage of such fees) in accordance with the requirements of the Arbitration Rules; but if the Arbitration Rules (or other applicable arbitration rules or laws) require Company to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this Section 16 to be enforceable, then Company will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration.
