Waiver of Rights: To the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, You agree to waive any right to pursue claims on a class or consolidated basis or in any representative capacity that is related in any way to these Terms or your access to, or use of, the Site.
Arbitration: Please read this section carefully because it affects rights that you might otherwise have. It provides for resolution of most disputes through arbitration instead of court proceedings.
- Arbitration is different than court. There is no judge or jury, but the arbitrator can award damages. Arbitration is final, binding, and subject to only limited review by a court. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to give up your right to a trial in court except for certain small claims as described below.
- You agree that this arbitration section will survive termination of these Terms. This section will be broadly interpreted to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of, or relating to, your access to, or use of, the Site and any content on the Site. Any dispute or claim you make against Lowe’s PRO Supply or any of Lowe’s PRO Supply’s Affiliates arising out of or related to your access to, or use of, the Site or any content on the Site, whether based on contract, tort, statute, regulation, equity, or any other legal theory, will be resolved by binding arbitration, except that you may take claims to small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such court.
- You must first present any claim or dispute to Lowe’s PRO Supply by contacting the customer care center to allow Lowe’s PRO Supply the opportunity to resolve any dispute. You may request arbitration if your dispute cannot be resolved within sixty (60) days. The arbitration of any dispute or claim will be conducted with the rules of a Nationwide Arbitration Organization as modified by this agreement. You and Lowe’s PRO Supply agree that this agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. Any such arbitration will be brought and held in Charlotte, North Carolina, and will be conducted in the English language. An arbitrator may not (i) award relief in excess of or contrary to what these Terms provide; (ii) order consolidation or arbitration on a class wide or representative basis; or (iii) award punitive damages or any other damages aside from the prevailing party’s actual damages, except that the arbitrator may award on an individual basis damages required by statute and may order injunctive or declaratory relief pursuant to an applicable consumer protection statute. In any arbitration applying those rules applicable to large and/or complex cases, the arbitrators may also apply the Federal Rules of Evidence, and the losing party may have the award reviewed in accordance with the review procedures set forth in the selected arbitrator’s rules.
- Any arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor Lowe’s PRO Supply may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement or appeal of the arbitration award. The decisions of the arbitrators will be binding and conclusive upon all parties involved, and any judgment or decision on any arbitration may be entered in and specifically enforced in any court having proper jurisdiction.
- If any portion of this section is determined by a court to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder will be given full force and effect.
- Unless an applicable statute expressly permits awarding attorney's fees to the prevailing party, all administrative fees and expenses of arbitration will be divided equally between you and Lowe’s PRO Supply. Each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of evidence at any arbitration hearing.
If this arbitration provision is held to have been waived or to be unenforceable, then the courts in Charlotte, North Carolina will have exclusive jurisdiction over all disputes between you and Lowe’s PRO Supply, and you and Lowe’s PRO Supply each hereby consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
