TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LESLIE'S OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATED COMPANIES, EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, AGENTS, SUCCESSORS, DIRECTORS OR REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, COVER, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF REVENUE, INCOME OR PROFITS, LOSS OF USE OR DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICPATE SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE OF ASSETS OR SECURITIES, OR DAMAGES FOR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) DAMAGES, OR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF LESLIE'S HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, WHETHER IN AN ACTION UNDER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE, INABILITY TO USE, OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SITE, OR ANY INFORMATION OR MATERIALS PROVIDED ON THE SITE OR THE ORDER, RECEIPT OR USE OF ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE, OR OTHERWISE RELATED TO THESE TERMS (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY OR RESULTING FROM RELIANCE ON ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM LESLIE'S, OR FROM EVENTS BEYOND LESLIE'S'S REASONABLE CONTROL, SUCH AS REWARDS PROGRAM INTERRUPTIONS, DELETIONS OF FILES OR EMAILS, ERRORS OR OMISSIONS, DEFECTS, BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, DELAYS IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSION OR ANY FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE, WHETHER OR NOT RESULTING FROM ACTS OF GOD, COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO LESLIE'S RECORDS, PROGRAMS OR SYSTEMS). LESLIE'S IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF ANY USER. THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS IS A COMPREHENSIVE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY THAT APPLIES TO ALL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING (WITHOUT LIMITATION) COMPENSATORY, DIRECT, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSS OF DATA, INCOME OR PROFIT, LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY AND/OR CLAIMS OF THIRD PARTIES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF LESLIE'S ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE SITE EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID TO LESLIE'S FOR ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES IN THE NINETY (90) DAYS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY EVEN IN THE EVENT YOUR REMEDIES HEREUNDER FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, AND THE FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE LESLIE'S'S SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION IN RESPECT HEREOF, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, SIMPLE NEGLIGENCE, WHETHER ACTIVE, PASSIVE OR IMPUTED), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY.

IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU HEREBY WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE 1542, WHICH STATES "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."

You hereby acknowledge that the preceding limitation on liability will apply to all content and services available through the Site or other channels. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability, this limitation of liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Indemnification

YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS LESLIE'S, ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATED COMPANIES, EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, AGENTS, SUCCESSORS, SUBSIDIARIES, DIRECTORS AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, JUDGMENTS, AWARDS, LOSSES, FEES, COSTS OR EXPENSES, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY FEES, RESULTING OR ARISING OUT OF YOUR BREACH OF ANY OF THESE TERMS OF USE OR APPLICABLE LAW, USER-GENERATED CONTENT AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS YOU POST OR ALLOW TO BE POSTED TO THE SITE, YOUR USE OR ACCESS OF THE SITE, ACCESS OF THIS SITE BY ANYONE USING YOUR USER ID AND PASSWORD, OR ANY OTHER ACTIONS TAKEN BY YOU ON THE SITE. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT LESLIE'S SHALL HAVE CONTROL OF THE DEFENSE OR SETTLEMENT OF ANY THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS, UNLESS LESLIE'S EXERCISES ITS OPTION TO REQUIRE YOU TO DEFEND LESLIE'S. THIS INDEMNITY IS IN ADDITION TO, AND NOT IN LIEU OF, ANY OTHER INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN A WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND LESLIE'S.

Dispute Resolution (ARBITRATION AGREEMENT)

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. EXCEPT AS THE TERMS OF USE OTHERWISE PROVIDE, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS TO TRY ANY CLAIM IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Other rights that you would have if you went to court, such as access to discovery or appeals, also might be unavailable or limited in arbitration.

Agreement to Binding Arbitration

Any dispute, claim or controversy (that is not resolved informally as set forth below) between you and Leslie’s, its officers, agents, employees, officers, directors, principals, successors, assigns, subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively for purposes of this section, ‘Leslie’s’) arising from or relating in any way to: (1) these Terms of Use and their interpretation or the breach, termination or validity thereof, and the relationships which result from these Terms of Use; (2) your use of any website owned or operated by Leslie’s; or (3) any products or services sold or distributed by Leslie’s or through any website owned or operated by Leslie’s (collectively, “Covered Disputes”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court. Covered Disputes shall be interpreted broadly.

Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution

Leslie’s values its customers and seeks to resolve disputes informally where possible. Before formally pursuing a Covered Dispute in arbitration, you agree to first send a detailed notice (“Notice”) to Leslie’s by U.S. mail, postage prepaid to:

Legal Department

Web Terms of Service

Leslie’s Poolmart, Inc.

2005 E. Indian School Rd.

Phoenix, AZ 85016

Your Notice must contain all of the following information: (1) your full name; (2) your address, telephone number, and email address; (3) information sufficient for Leslie’s to identify any transaction or service at issue; and (4) a detailed description of your dispute, the nature and basis of your claim(s), and the nature and basis of the relief you are seeking with a calculation for it. You must personally sign this Notice.

If Leslie’s has a dispute with you, Leslie’s agrees to first send a detailed Notice to your e-mail address on file with us. Leslie’s’ Notice will likewise set forth (1) information sufficient for you to identify any transaction or service at issue and (2) a detailed description of our dispute, the nature and basis of our claim(s), and the nature and basis of the relief we are seeking with a calculation for it. You and Leslie’s agree to negotiate in good faith about the dispute in an effort to swiftly resolve it to your satisfaction without the need for a formal proceeding. Should Leslie’s request a telephone conference with you in an effort to resolve your dispute as part of this informal process, you agree to personally participate (with your counsel if you are represented). This process should result in resolution of the dispute, but if for some reason it is not resolved within 60 days after receipt of a fully completed Notice and the parties have not agreed to extend this time period, you or Leslie’s may initiate an arbitration. Compliance with and completion of this mandatory informal dispute resolution process is a condition precedent to filing any demand for arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in this process. Unless prohibited by applicable law, the arbitration administrator shall not accept or administer any demand for arbitration unless the claimant has certified in writing that they have fully complied with this process. This certification shall be personally signed by you or Leslie’s. A court shall have the authority to enjoin the filing or prosecution of arbitrations without first providing a fully completed Notice and participating in good faith in this informal dispute resolution process.

Initiating Arbitration and Arbitration Rules

Any arbitration between you and Leslie’s shall be administered by American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with AAA’s operative AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules and the Consumer Due Process Protocol (collectively, "AAA Rules") in effect at the time any demand for arbitration is filed with AAA, as modified by this Legal Disputes Section. If the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to apply this Legal Disputes Section as written, the parties shall mutually agree on an alternative administrator that will administer the proceedings under the Legal Disputes Section as written. If the parties are unable to agree, they will petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration administrator that will do so. Any arbitration will be held before a single neutral arbitrator.

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send the demand for arbitration or arbitration notice form made available from the arbitration administrator and supplement that form with a detailed description of your claim, including with the information required for your Notice and the accompanying signed certification of compliance with the informal process referenced above (collectively referred to as “demand for arbitration”), to AAA. You must personally sign your demand for arbitration. You agree to also send Leslie’s a copy of your demand for arbitration, U.S. postage prepaid, to:

Legal Department

Re: Demand for Arbitration, Web TOS

Leslie’s Poolmart, Inc.

2005 E. Indian School Rd.

Phoenix, AZ 85016

If Leslie’s initiates arbitration, we will send a copy of our demand for arbitration to your email address on file with us.

You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, virtually, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another location reasonably convenient for you, or at a mutually agreed-upon location. Leslie’s reserves the right to request an in-person or videoconference hearing at any point within 14 days after its deadline to file any answer. After that time, Leslie’s retains the right to request an in-person or virtual hearing from the arbitrator, which the arbitrator may elect to require along with your participation (with your counsel if you are represented). Should a hearing take place in person, it shall take place consistent with the geographic parameters set forth above.

Arbitration Fees

Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Upon a showing of financial hardship, Leslie’s will consider your request to promptly reimburse your portion of the arbitration fees provided for in the AAA Rules.

Arbitration Authority

The arbitrator has the sole authority to and shall address all claims or arguments by both parties concerning the formation, legality, and enforceability of this arbitration clause, the scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of any claim or issue arising between us.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. The arbitrator may not award relief for or against anyone who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator is bound by and must follow the terms of these Terms of Use as a court would. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to address the essential findings and conclusions of law on which the award is based. The arbitration award shall be binding only between you and Leslie’s and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or proceedings involving a different party, provided that the arbitrator may consider rulings in other arbitrations involving different individuals. The arbitrator may award fees and costs as provided by the AAA Rules or to the extent such fees and costs could be awarded in court or if the arbitrator determines that a claim, proceeding, or defense was frivolous or brought for harassment, for an improper purpose, or in bad faith. The arbitrator shall apply the provisions of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 after entry of the award.

Sole Exceptions to Arbitration

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of arbitration: (1) either you or Leslie’s may elect to have an individual claim heard in small claims court consistent with any applicable jurisdictional and monetary limits that may apply, provided that it is brought and maintained as an individual claim and is not appealed or removed to any court of general jurisdiction; and (2) you agree that you or Leslie’s may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

Special Additional Procedures for Mass Arbitration

If 100 or more individuals seek to initiate arbitrations with Leslie’s raising similar claims, and counsel for the individuals bringing the claims are the same or coordinated or the claims are otherwise coordinate, and if no substantive ruling has been made in an arbitration between you and Leslie’s relating to the decision on those facts, then both you and Leslie’s’ have the unilateral right to opt out of this arbitration provision and have your dispute heard in the federal and state courts of the State of California by sending a written notice to the other party.

Jury Trial and Class Action Waiver

Except as the Terms of Use otherwise provide and to the fullest extent permitted by law, you and Leslie’s acknowledge and agree that you are each waiving the right to a trial by jury and to the litigation of disputes in state or federal courts of general jurisdiction. The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action/class arbitration or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. You and Leslie’s may not be plaintiffs or class members in any purported class, collective, private attorney general, or representative proceeding, or otherwise make or proceed with any claim on a collective or consolidated basis, and may each bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity. As referenced above, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim. If a court determines that this class action waiver is not enforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief and all appeals from that decision have been exhausted (or the decision is otherwise final), then the parties agree that that particular claim or request for relief shall proceed in court but shall be stayed pending arbitration of the remaining claims.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Leslie’s, its officers, providers, members, employees, agents, successors, subsidiaries, affiliates or third parties from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) against or incurred by Leslie’s arising out of a claim by a third party relating to your breach of these Terms of Use or applicable law, user-generated content and any other materials you post or allow to be posted to the Site, your use or access of the Site, access of this Site by anyone using your User ID and password, or any other actions taken by you on the Site.

Applicable Law

You and Leslie’s agree that any dispute or claim arising from or related to: (1) these Terms of Use and their interpretation or the breach, termination or validity thereof, and the relationships which result from these Terms of Use; (2) your use of the Site; or (3) any products or services sold or distributed by Leslie’s or through the Site is governed exclusively by, the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and federal law, and not by any state or local laws, or the laws of other countries, concerning or purporting to place limits on the availability or scope of arbitration or in any way imposing requirements beyond or inconsistent with those set forth in the FAA. Where otherwise applicable, the laws of the State of Arizona apply. Should any action proceed in court (other than in small claims court), you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts of the State of Arizona. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver by Leslie’s of any term or condition set out 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 Leslie’s 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 found to be illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these terms and conditions shall be unaffected and shall continue to be fully valid, binding, and enforceable.

Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, and our Pool Perks Rewards Terms and Conditions constitute the sole and entire understanding and agreement between you and us with respect to the use of the Site and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Site.
