When you are enrolled, subscriptions will automatically create a new order according to the shipment schedule applicable to your product purchase selection, and your subscription for the selected product will continue for each subscription period selected by you until you cancel. You may skip a subscription shipment, make changes to, or cancel your subscription up to twenty-four (24) hours before your order is placed.

Some of the offer details for subscription may change as you receive deliveries over time (for example, price, taxes, availability, and shipping/handling charges). If the item is unavailable when we plan to ship it, we will notify you that we are unable to process the order, and we will wait to process your order until the next scheduled shipping date based on the shipment frequency selected.
RECURRING CHARGES APPLY. The total cost charged to your payment method for each subscription order will be the cost of the item on the day that order is processed, less any subscription discount offered as a percentage or dollars off at the time you signed up, plus shipping, handling, and any applicable sales tax.

CANCELLATION. You may cancel a subscription at any time. To cancel, log in to your account, click the “Subscriptions” tab, then click “cancel.” You may also cancel by contacting Customer Service. If you cancel before the next recurring payment is charged, then your subscription will terminate automatically, and the Company will not charge your payment provider for any subsequent subscription period.

If you cancel your enrollment and then reactivate it, the discount applied to any subscription item may not be the same discount in effect at the time of cancellation. If the subscription discount for such item changes, the new discount will be applied to your future shipments of that item.
SKIP A SHIPMENT. You may also skip a shipment at any time. To skip a shipment, log in to your account, click “subscription,” then “skip a shipment.” If you skip a shipment before your next recurring payment is charged, the Company will cancel the next scheduled delivery for your subscription, and your payment method will not be charged for the skipped shipment. If you skip a shipment while an order is in process (i.e., your payment has been charged but you have not yet received your shipment), the Company will continue to process your order for that period and skip the following subscription period. After your skipped shipment, the Company will automatically restart your subscription deliveries unless you skip the next shipment or cancel your subscription. Skipping a shipment does not cancel your subscription.
MANAGE YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS. You can manage or make changes to your subscription at any time by logging into your account, clicking “subscription,” and following the prompts. Any changes you make will be reflected in your next shipment, except for changes initiated while an order is in process (i.e., your payment has been charged but you have not yet received your shipment), in which case they will be reflected after the current order has been completed.
The Company reserves the right to change the subscription benefits, including the discount amounts and eligibility used to determine discount amounts, at any time in its sole discretion. All changes will apply to future orders, including current enrollments.

THE RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS DISCOVERY OR THE RIGHT TO APPEAL, MAY BE MORE LIMITED OR MAY NOT EXIST.
YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY ONLY BRING A CLAIM IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OR CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
Generally. Arbitration is a method of resolving a Claim without filing a lawsuit. “Claim” means any dispute between you, the Company, and/or any involved third party relating to your account, Your Use (defined above), your relationship with the Company, or these Terms of Use and Conditions of Purchase. This includes any and all claims that relate in any way to your use of the products, your attempted use of the products, and any act or omission by the Company or any third party related to your use or attempted use of the products. You, the Company, or any involved third party may pursue a Claim. The Company agrees to binding arbitration should it have any Claims against you. Likewise, you agree to binding arbitration should you have any Claims against the Company. By agreeing to arbitrate, you waive the right to go to court and agree instead to submit any Claims to binding arbitration. This arbitration provision sets forth the terms and conditions of our agreement to binding arbitration and is governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, as amended.
Exceptions to Binding Arbitration. As an exception to binding arbitration, you and the Company both retain the right to pursue, in a small claims court, any claim that is within that court’s jurisdiction and proceeds on an individual (non-class) basis. The Company will not demand arbitration in connection with any individual claim that you properly file and pursue in a small claims court, so long as the claim is pending only in that court. Binding arbitration also does not apply to disputes concerning trade secret misappropriation, patent infringement, copyright infringement or misuse, or trademark infringement or dilution.
Mandatory Pre-Dispute Procedures. You acknowledge and agree that before initiating any Claim (subject to the exceptions above) against the Company, you will first give us an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. This includes sending a written description of your problem or dispute to us, including, but not limited to, information or representations related to our products and upon which you rely. You may send the written description by U.S. Mail to the Company, 1745 Berkeley St., Studio 2, Santa Monica, CA 90404; Attn: General Counsel. You agree to negotiate with the Company in good faith about your problem or dispute. If, for some reason, your problem or dispute is not resolved to your satisfaction within 60 days after the Company's receipt of your written dispute, you agree to the dispute resolution provisions below.
Commencement of Arbitration. You and the Company agree to commence any arbitration proceeding within 1 year after the Claim arises (including the mandatory pre-dispute procedures outlined above), and that any proceeding commenced after 1 year shall be barred.
Arbitration Location. For your convenience, the arbitration may be conducted in the federal district where you reside. It may be held by telephone or through written submissions if both you and the Company agree.
Sponsoring Organization, Rules, and the Arbitrator. You agree that any Claims shall be resolved by submitting the dispute to final and binding arbitration before a single arbitrator who is a retired judge or an experienced attorney with experience in the subject(s) of the Claim. The arbitrator shall be chosen from JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, and the arbitration rules of the selected tribunal shall apply, which can be obtained by calling the selected tribunal.
The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, construction, validity, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms of Use and Conditions of Purchase and this arbitration provision. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to determine whether this arbitration agreement can be enforced against a non-signatory to this agreement and whether a non-signatory to this agreement can enforce this provision against you or the Company.
Arbitration Fees. The Company shall pay for all filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees for an arbitration initiated by either party. The parties shall each pay their own additional fees, costs, and expenses, including, but not limited to, those for any attorneys, experts, documents, and witnesses.
Arbitration Award. The arbitrator shall follow substantive law and may order any relief if permitted by law. The arbitrator may award any form of individual relief, including injunctions and punitive damages, so long as they are in accordance with applicable law. The arbitrator may award costs or fees to a prevailing party, but only if the law expressly allows it. Although the Company may have a right to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses under some laws if it prevails, the Company agrees that it will not seek such an award unless your Claims are determined by the arbitrator to be frivolous. Nothing herein shall be construed to limit the arbitrator’s ability to award remedies provided by applicable law. Any award rendered shall include a written opinion and shall be final, subject to appeal under the FAA.
Enforceability. This provision survives termination of your account or relationship with the Company, bankruptcy, assignment, or transfer. If the class action waiver is deemed unenforceable (i.e., unenforceability would allow arbitration to proceed as a class or representative action), then this entire arbitration provision shall be rendered null and void and shall not apply. If a portion of this arbitration provision (other than the class action waiver) is deemed unenforceable, the remaining portions of this arbitration provision shall remain in full force and effect.
Miscellaneous. Failure or any delay in enforcing this arbitration provision in connection with any particular Claims will not constitute a waiver of any rights to require arbitration at a later time or in connection with any other Claims. This provision is the entire arbitration agreement between you and the Company and shall not be modified except in writing by the Company.
Amendments. The Company reserves the right to amend this arbitration provision at any time. Your continued use of any the Company Website, purchase of a Company product, or use or attempted use of a Company product, is affirmation of your consent to such changes. Should the changes to this arbitration provision be material, the Company will provide you notice and an opportunity to opt out. Your continued use of any Company Website, purchase of a Company product, or use or attempted use of a Company product, is affirmation of your consent to such material changes.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE, USE, OR ATTEMPTED USE OF A COMPANY PRODUCT (WHICHEVER COMES FIRST) BY WRITING TO COUNTER BEAUTY, 1745 BERKELEY ST. STUDIO 2, SANTA MONICA, CA 90404; ATTN: GENERAL COUNSEL. FOR YOUR OPT-OUT TO BE EFFECTIVE, YOU MUST SUBMIT A SIGNED WRITTEN NOTICE IDENTIFYING ANY COUNTER BEAUTY PRODUCT YOU PURCHASED, USED, OR ATTEMPTED TO USE WITHIN THE 30 DAYS AND THE DATE YOU FIRST PURCHASED, USED, OR ATTEMPTED TO USE OF COUNTER BEAUTY PRODUCTS. UNTIMELY OPT-OUTS WILL NOT BE VALID, AND YOU MUST THEN PURSUE YOUR CLAIM THROUGH ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THESE TERMS.
16. Exclusive Venue for Other Controversies
You agree that any controversy excluded from the dispute resolution procedure and class action waiver provisions in this Agreement (other than an individual action filed in small claims court) shall be filed in Los Angeles, California, and each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for any such controversy. You and the Company agree to commence any proceeding within 1 year after the Claim arises, and that any proceeding commenced after 1 year shall be barred.
17. Remedies for the Company
In order to avoid irreparable injury to the Company, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by you of the provisions of this Agreement, we shall be entitled to seek an injunction and/or other equitable relief restraining such breach. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of monetary damages from you.
