16. MODIFICATIONS TO THE SITES

We reserve the right in our sole discretion to modify, suspend or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Sites (or any features or parts thereof) at any time.

17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH PRIMO AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

a. Binding Arbitration

You and Primo each agree to waive our respective rights to have any and all disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, demands or proceedings (collectively, “Disputes”) arising from or related to these Terms of Use, the Sites or the Content, including claims that arose before the existence of these Terms of Use, claims that arise after the cancelation or termination of these Terms of Use, and claims that are the subject of purported class action litigation, resolved in a court and by a jury trial. Instead, you and Primo agree to arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration as provided in more detail in these Terms of Use. The foregoing waivers shall not apply to any Disputes in which either party seeks injunctive or other equitable relief (including Disputes (i) arising out of or related to a violation of Section 3, or (ii) for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents). Disputes shall not include any issues relating to the existence, scope, validity, or enforceability of this arbitration provision.

b. No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions

c. Federal Arbitration Act

You and Primo agree that these Terms of Use affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 17 shall be both substantively and procedurally governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

d. Notice; Informal Dispute Resolution

You and Primo agree that each party will notify the other party in writing of any Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises, so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to Primo shall be sent by certified mail or courier to DS Services of America, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, 2300 Windy Ridge Parkway, Suite 500N, Atlanta, Georgia 30339. Your notice must include (a) your name, postal address, telephone number, account number (if you have one) and an email address at which you can be contacted, (b) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (c) the specific relief that you are seeking. If you and Primo cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then either you or Primo may, as appropriate and in accordance with this Section 17, commence an arbitration proceeding.

e. Process

EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES IN WHICH EITHER PARTY SEEKS INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF (INCLUDING DISPUTES (I) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO A VIOLATION OF SECTION 3, OR (II) FOR THE ALLEGED UNLAWFUL USE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COPYRIGHTS, TRADEMARKS, TRADE NAMES, LOGOS, TRADE SECRETS OR PATENTS), YOU AND PRIMO AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE MUST BE COMMENCED OR FILED BY YOU OR PRIMO WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR OF THE DATE THE DISPUTE AROSE, OTHERWISE THE UNDERLYING CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED (WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AND PRIMO WILL NO LONGER HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSERT SUCH CLAIM REGARDING THE DISPUTE). You and Primo agree that (a) any arbitration (including the hearing) will occur in Cobb County, Georgia, (b) arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), which are hereby incorporated by reference, and (c) that the state or federal courts of the State of Georgia and the United States, respectively, sitting in Cobb County (for state) and Fulton County (for federal), have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award. In addition to the foregoing, demands for arbitration must be accompanied by a detailed statement of claim that is personally verified and executed by the claimant. Moreover, you will not be responsible for any arbitral fees that exceed the fees you would have incurred if the dispute had been brought in court. If you hire an attorney to represent you in arbitration, you are responsible for your attorneys’ fees and costs but may recover them from Primo to the same extent as in court. If the arbitrator finds that your Dispute was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, however, Primo may seek reimbursement of its reasonable attorneys’ fees from you, your attorney, or both, to the same extent as in court.

f. Authority of Arbitrator

As limited by the FAA, these Terms of Use and the applicable JAMS rules, the arbitrator will have (a) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Dispute, including the determination of whether a Dispute is arbitrable, and (b) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms of Use. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

g. Rules of JAMS

The rules of JAMS and additional information about JAMS are available on the JAMS website. By agreeing to be bound by these Terms of Use, you either (a) acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS, or (b) waive your opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

h. Opt-Out Right

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date you first visit the Sites (and thus accept these Terms of Use) by writing to: DS Services of America, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, 2300 Windy Ridge Parkway, Suite 500N, Atlanta, Georgia 30339. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve Disputes in accordance with Section 18.

18. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

These Terms of Use and your access to and use of the Sites shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of the State of Georgia or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration shall be resolved in the Georgia state courts located in Cobb County, Georgia or in the United States federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia only – however, for all such disputes generating federal subject matter jurisdiction, the parties agree that these disputes shall be heard in the United States federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia only.

19. SITE ACCESS

Notwithstanding anything contained in these Terms of Use, we reserve the right, without notice and in our sole discretion, to terminate your right to access or use the Sites at any time and for any or no reason.

20. SEVERABILITY

If any term, clause or provision of these Terms of Use is held invalid or unenforceable, then that term, clause or provision will be severable from these Terms of Use and will not affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining part of that term, clause or provision, or any other term, clause or provision of these Terms of Use.

21. MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and Primo relating to your access to and use of the Sites. These Terms of Use, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without the prior written consent of Primo. No waiver of any provision of these Terms of Use will constitute a waiver of such provision in any prior, concurrent or subsequent circumstance, and Primo’s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms of Use are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity.

OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THIRD PARTIES

Links to Other Sites – We may feature links to websites that we believe you might find useful and informative. Please be aware, however, that we do not endorse or recommend these sites’ content, products, or services, and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of these other sites. We encourage you to be aware of and read the privacy policy of each site you visit. Remember, this Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected or used by DS Services.

Social Media Plugins – Our online environments may use social media plugins (for example, the Facebook “Like” button or “Share to Twitter” button) to enable you to easily share information with others. When you visit our online environments, the operator of the social plugin can place a cookie on your device, enabling that operator to recognize individuals who have previously visited our online environments. Please view our Cookie Policy for more information about removing cookies. If you are logged into the social media website (for example, Facebook, Twitter, Google+) while browsing on our online environments, the social plugins allow that social media website to receive information that you have visited our online environments. The social plugins also allow the social media website to share information about your activities on our online environments with other users of their social media website. For example, Facebook Social Plugins allow Facebook to show your “Likes” and comments on our online environments to your Facebook friends. Facebook Social Plugins also allow you to see your friends’ Facebook activity on our online environments. We do not control any of the content from the social media plugins. For more information about social plugins from other social media websites, you should refer to those sites’ privacy and data sharing policies.

RIGHTS AND CHOICES YOU HAVE ABOUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have the following rights with respect to your Personal Information:

Right to Notice. Before or at the time we collect Personal Information from you, you have the right to receive notice of the Personal Information to be collected and the purposes for which we use it. This Notice is intended to satisfy this requirement.
You also have the right to request that we disclose to you the categories of personal information we have collected about you in the preceding 12 months, along with the categories of sources from which the personal information was collected, the purpose for collecting the personal information, and the categories of third parties with whom we shared the personal information

Right Not to Be Subject to Discrimination. You have the right to be free from discrimination or retaliation for exercising any of your rights as described above.

VERIFICATION OF YOUR IDENTITY

We value the security and confidentiality of your Personal Information. Therefore, if you exercise your right to notice, right of access, or right to deletion, we must first verify your identity to make sure that you are the person about whom we have collected Personal Information. We verify every request carefully.

You may also authorize someone else to submit these requests on your behalf. To do so, you may designate directly with us another person who may act on your behalf by emailing your request to the address shown below in the “Contact Us” section of this Privacy Policy and providing us with a notarized copy of a power of attorney, or by asking the authorized agent to provide us with a copy of your written permission and a scanned copy of their own government-issued ID.

ALTERNATIVE FORMATS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY

HOW WE SECURE YOUR INFORMATION

We have instituted physical, technical, and procedural safeguards to store and maintain information we collect in a secure environment. You may also be required to use a password to access certain pages on our online environments where certain types of your information can be changed or deleted. It is therefore important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your device. You take full responsibility for maintaining the complexity and confidentiality of your password. While we have implemented safeguards, you should be aware that Internet security technology rapidly changes. We cannot guarantee that the safeguards we employ today can protect your information from the threats of tomorrow. You should also be aware that despite our efforts, factors beyond our control may result in disclosure of information. Accordingly, we are not able to guarantee that your information will be secure under all circumstances. We retain Personal Information collected through the online and offline services as long as necessary to provide the services, products, and information you request or as permitted by applicable law.

MESSAGE BOARDS AND DISCUSSION FORUMS

Some of our online environments may allow you to share comments or other information. Any information that you may disclose through message boards, discussion forums, blogs, or on other public areas on our online environments becomes public information.

OUR POLICY ON CHILDREN’S INFORMATION

We do not knowingly collect or use any information from children (we define “children” as minors younger than 16 (sixteen) years of age) on our online or offline environments. We do not knowingly allow children to order our products or services, communicate with us, or use any of our online environments. If you are a parent and become aware that your child has provided us with information, please contact us using one of the methods specified below, and we will work with you to address this issue.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Our online and offline environments are designed for and targeted to audiences in the United States (“U.S.”) and are governed by and operated in accordance with the laws of the U.S. While users from countries other than the U.S. may access our online and offline environments, we make no representation that such environments are operated in accordance with the laws or regulations of, or governed by, other nations.

Please be aware that by accessing our online and offline environments, or providing us with information, you understand and agree that:

Information collected from you may be transferred to and stored on servers located outside your jurisdiction;
To the extent you are a resident of a country other than the U.S., you consent to the transfer of such information to the U.S. for our use in accordance with this Privacy Policy; and
This Privacy Policy, and the collection and use of information pursuant to this Privacy Policy, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Georgia without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law, with all actions or proceedings arising in connection with this policy to be tried and litigated only in the state courts or federal courts located in Cobb County, Georgia.

Providing us with information or continuing to use our online or offline environments indicates that you are agreeing to the collection, use, disclosure, management, and storage of information collected from you as described in this Privacy Policy.

LOOKBACK DISCLOSURE

The categories of personal information and their collection, use, and disclosure in the preceding twelve (12) months are the same as those defined in this Privacy Policy.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy without prior notice to reflect technological advancements, legal and regulatory changes, and good business practices. If we change our privacy practices, a new Privacy Policy will reflect those changes and the effective date of the revised Privacy Policy will be set forth at the top of this Privacy Policy.
