THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT, PRODUCTS, AND SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SITE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY INFORMATION ON THE SITE.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THESE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

14. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ARTISAN THE GOAT, ITS OWNERS, FAMILY MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR ANY PRODUCT PURCHASED FROM US, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100).

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THESE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

15. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Artisan The Goat, its owners, family members, employees, contractors, and affiliates from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your violation of these Terms, your violation of any law or third-party right, your User Content, or your misuse of the Site or any product purchased from us.

16. Mutual Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.

You and Artisan The Goat agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, or any product purchased from us — whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory — will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except as provided below.

Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, available at www.adr.org. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. The arbitration will take place by remote electronic means where permitted; if an in-person hearing is required and the parties cannot agree on a location, it will take place in a metropolitan area within 100 miles of Vancouver, Washington. The Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) governs this arbitration agreement.

Class Action Waiver. You and Artisan The Goat agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, representative, consolidated, or private attorney general action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding.

Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual action in small claims court if eligible. Either party may also seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its intellectual property rights.

Opt-Out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out by email to hello@artisanthegoat.com with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" within thirty (30) days after first becoming subject to these Terms. Your notice must include your full name, mailing address, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of arbitration. Opting out will not affect any other part of these Terms.

If the Class Action Waiver is found to be unenforceable for any reason with respect to a particular claim, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed and brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Washington, but the remainder of the arbitration agreement will continue to apply.

17. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms and any dispute between you and Artisan The Goat are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Subject to Section 16, you and Artisan The Goat agree that the state and federal courts located in Clark County, Washington shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim that is not subject to arbitration.

18. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Site, or to refuse service, at any time and for any reason, with or without notice. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including without limitation Sections 7, 8, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 19) will survive any termination of these Terms.

19. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated Terms on this page with a revised effective date. If we make material changes, we will provide additional notice (such as a banner on the Site or by email to registered customers). Your continued use of the Site after the updated Terms take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

20. Miscellaneous

These Terms, together with the other policies linked from the Site footer, constitute the entire agreement between you and Artisan The Goat regarding the Site, superseding any prior agreements. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that provision. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign these Terms freely. Headings are for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
