PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES AND IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to these to these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that You may assert claims in small claims court if Your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to these Terms. We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that You or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

Acceptance. By replying #YesYC, You unconditionally accept these Terms and these Terms shall constitute the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter therein. This License may not be amended or rescinded except by a writing signed by the parties, and removing Your consent from the platform on which it was originally provided shall not serve to void, terminate, or alter these Terms or the enforcement thereof. This License shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and heirs. IF YOU DO NOT OWN OR HAVE AUTHORIZATION TO GRANT THE RIGHTS AND PERMISSIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND/OR DO NOT WANT TO GRANT YANKEE CANDLE SUCH RIGHTS, DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS.
