TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT WILL THE MIRACLES ENTITIES BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, LOSS OF USE, DATA OR PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES OR LOSSES) ARISING OUT OF, RESULTING FROM, BASED ON OR RELATED TO THE WEBSITE OR THESE TERMS, HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER ARISING FROM CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) OR ANY OTHER CAUSE OF ACTION, EVEN IF THE MIRACLES ENTITIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.  SOME JURISDICTIONS (SUCH AS THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY) DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.  IF THE ABOVE EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS FOUND TO BE UNLAWFUL, VOID OR UNENFORCEABLE BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, THEN THE MIRACLES ENTITIES’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY DAMAGES FINALLY AWARDED IN ANY MATTER ARISING FROM, RELATED TO OR CONNECTED WITH THE WEBSITE OR THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00).

  2. (8) ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER8.1       Informal Process First.  You agree that in the event of any dispute between you and the Miracles Entities, you will first contact Miracles and make a good faith sustained effort to resolve the dispute before resorting to more formal means of resolution, including without limitation, any court action.8.2       Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver.  After the informal dispute resolution process, any remaining dispute, controversy, or claim (collectively, “Claim”) relating in any way to your use of Miracles’ services and/or products, including the Services, will be resolved by arbitration, including threshold questions of arbitrability of the Claim. You and Miracles agree that any Claim will be settled by final and binding arbitration, using the English language, administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”) then in effect (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section, and as of the date of these Terms). Arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Rules. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction. Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis – class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. You understand that by agreeing to these Terms, you and Miracles are each waiving the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class action or class arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and Miracles will have the right to bring an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable or conservatory relief, pending a final decision by the arbitrator. You may instead assert your claim in “small claims” court, but only if your claim qualifies, your claim remains in such court and your claim remains on an individual, non-representative and non-class basis.8.3       Costs of Arbitration. Payment for any and all reasonable JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be in accordance with the JAMS Rules. If the value of your claim does not exceed $10,000, Miracles will pay for the reasonable filing, administrative and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose.8.4       Opt-Out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration provisions set forth in these Terms by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to info@miraclesforkids.org or to the U.S. mailing address listed in the “How to Contact Us” section of these Terms.

Additionally, Miracles may suspend, disable, or delete your Account and/or the Services (or any part of the foregoing) with or without notice, for any or no reason. If Miracles deletes your Account for any suspected breach of these Terms by you, you are prohibited from re-registering for the Services under a different name. All sections which by their nature should survive the termination of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement by Miracles or you. Termination will not limit any of Miracles’ other rights or remedies at law or in equity.9.4       Injunctive Relief. You agree that a breach of these Terms will cause irreparable injury to Miracles for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and Miracles shall be entitled to equitable relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law without a bond, other security or proof of damages.

These Terms and the licenses granted hereunder may be assigned by Miracles but may not be assigned by you without the prior express written consent of Miracles. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
