Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Century is committed to resolving occasional concerns that might arise with its customers. In the unlikely event that such an issue cannot be resolved to your satisfaction through customer service, you and Century agree that the following dispute resolution provisions will apply.

“Dispute” means any claim or controversy between you and Century, including but not limited to any (1) claims for relief or theories of liability, whether based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation, statute or otherwise, or that relate to the existence of these Terms of Use, (2) claims that arose before these Terms of Use, (3) claims that may arise in the future, including claims that may arise after the cancelation or expiration of these Terms of Use, and (4) claims that are the subject of a putative class action in which no class has been certified. “Dispute” will be given the broadest possible meaning permitted by law. “Dispute” does not, however, include any issues arising from or relating to the arbitrability of any Disputes under, or the scope, validity, or enforceability of, the following Dispute resolution provisions.

Any Dispute arising out of or related in any manner to these Terms of Use which cannot be amicably resolved by the parties shall be solely and finally settled by a single arbitrator and be administered by National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) pursuant to its appliable consumer arbitration rules, as modified by the version of this arbitration provision that is in effect when notice of a Dispute is provided. The NAM rules can be obtained from NAM by visiting its website (www.namadr.com) or contacting them via the NAM website. If NAM is unavailable or unwilling to administer an arbitration in accordance with this arbitration provision, you and Century agree that the arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to its applicable consumer arbitration rules, as modified by the version of this arbitration provision that is in effect when notice of a Dispute is provided. The AAA rules can be obtained from the AAA website (www.adr.org). If the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to administer an arbitration in accordance with this arbitration provision, you and Century agree to work together in good faith to agree on (or if necessary to petition a court to appoint) an arbitration administrator that will do so. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitration shall take place before one arbitrator sitting in Monroe County, New York. The arbitration may be conducted by telephone or video, based on written submissions, or in person at a location reasonably convenient for you or at another mutually agreed location. If requested by the other party or the arbitrator, you shall personally appear (with your attorney if you are represented) or Century shall have a representative (with an attorney if Century is represented) personally appear at any in-person, video, or telephonic hearing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Century will pay all fees and costs that Century is required by law to pay.

The language for the arbitration shall be English. The arbitrator will be bound to adjudicate all disputes in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. The decision of the arbitrator shall be in writing with written findings of fact and shall be final and binding on the parties. The arbitrator shall be empowered to award money damages, subject to the limitations of the limitation of liability section and indemnification section of the Terms of Use, but shall not be empowered to award direct, indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages or specific performance. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the applicable NAM rules (or if AAA or an alternative administrator is administering the Dispute, then by their applicable rules consistent with the above). The parties shall be responsible for their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration, unless they are authorized by law, or the arbitrator determines that a claim was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose or in bad faith, as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b). In addition, the provisions of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 (cost-shifting) shall apply and be enforced by the arbitrator after the entry of an award. This section provides the sole resource for settlement of any Disputes arising out of, in connection with, or related to these Terms of Use. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action seeking injunctive relief shall be submitted to the courts and shall not be subject to this provision.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver of by Century of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Century to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement

The Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, and the Shipping Policy constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Century with respect to the Website and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the Website.
