General

The Site is controlled and operated by Protech Minerals, LLC from its headquarters in Victorville, CA, USA. Protech Minerals makes no representation that any content on the Site is appropriate or available for use in other locations. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your access to and use of the Site complies with all applicable laws of your jurisdiction. Protech Minerals reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate your access to the Site, or to discontinue the Site, in whole or in part, at any time and without notice.

These Terms, as they may be amended from time to time, set forth the entire understanding of you and Protech Minerals as to the subject matter hereof. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Terms shall remain in full force and effect and all provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms must be in writing and shall not constitute a continuing waiver or a waiver of any other provision. A printed version of these Terms and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in arbitration or in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.

Dispute Resolution & Applicable Law

In the event that our Customer Service team is unable to resolve your concern, any disputes arising out of your purchase or these Terms will be resolved entirely through binding individual arbitration, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement.

Note: There is no judge or jury in arbitration, no class action, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. An arbitrator, however, can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court, including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages, and must follow these Terms as a court would.
We each agree to bring any dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not on a class, consolidated, representative or collective action basis. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action against the other. In addition, we both agree that we each may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA OR JAMS RULES AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR PROTECH MINERALS WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

Applicable Law

The law applicable to the interpretation and construction of these Terms shall be the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal laws and the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, but subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and other federal law relating to the arbitrability of claims. You agree that all matters relating to purchases, including all disputes, will be governed by the laws of the United States and by the laws of the State of California.

General Terms

We reserve the right to make changes to these Terms at any time and will provide notice of such changes if or as required by law. If any of these conditions shall be deemed invalid, void or for any reason unenforceable, that condition shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining condition.
