Certain Services enable Retailers to place orders with a Distributor or its sales representatives (each a “Distributor Sales Representative”), and for such Distributor or Distributor Sales Representatives to communicate with Retailers about products and orders.

It is up to independent Distributors and Distributor Sales Representatives to facilitate order placement. It is up to independent Distributors and Distributor Sales Representatives to offer and distribute products and to Retailers to order those products, which may be arranged through the use of the Services.

Provi will notify you of any fees applicable to Paid Services prior to incurrence. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for Paid Services are deemed part of this Agreement.
- Distributors and/or their Sales Representatives control their own acceptance of orders and will have the option to reject any order they deem to be invalid or modify any order based on variations in pricing or stock.

Late fees shall accrue from the due date. You shall pay any amounts incurred by Provi in the collection of past due amounts owed including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
- We may use third-party payment processors (the “Payment Processors”) to process certain orders in the Services and bill you through a payment account linked to your Account on the Services (your “Billing Account”).

You have the right to access and use the Payments Platforms solely for your use to process transactions on behalf of your customers. You are prohibited from reverse engineering, disassembling or modifying the Payments Platforms or using the Payments Platforms in violation of any applicable law. The Payment Processors disclaim liability for damages directly to you, whether direct or indirect, incidental or consequential, arising in connection with your use of the Payments Platforms. The Payment Processors disclaim any warranty of any kind directly to you, including any warranty of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement.

YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSORS IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
- Your non-termination or continued use of a Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your payment method for that Paid Service. We may submit those charges for payment, and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Paid Service.
- Any free trial, credit or other promotion that provides access to a Paid Service must be used within the specified time of the trial.

All matters relating to the Site, Services, and this Agreement and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Illinois. A printed version of this Agreement will be admissible in judicial and 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.
23. Arbitration Agreement. Please read the following “ARBITRATION AGREEMENT” carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Provi and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from Provi. Both you and Provi acknowledge and agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms, including breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the relationship between the Parties, their affiliates, and subsidiaries, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees (“Disputes”) shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration (except as otherwise stated herein). The Parties agree that this Arbitration Agreement shall apply to all Disputes and shall be binding upon and enforceable by not only the Parties, but also their affiliates, subsidiaries, and their respective owners, officers, directors, manager, employees, and independent contractors (“Personnel”) who are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all claims or Disputes that arose or were asserted before the Effective Date of this Agreement.
- Any Dispute shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration except claims: (a) in small claims court, so long as the matter advances only on an individual (nonclass, non-representative) basis; and (b) for injunctive relief arising out of the infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
- Informal Resolution and Forum. The parties to these Terms shall use their best efforts to settle any Dispute directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. The party initiating the claim must give notice to the other party in writing of its, his, or her intent to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference, which shall occur within 60 days after the other party receives such notice unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the parties. To notify Provi that you intend to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference, email legal@provi.com, stating “Legal Notice - Informal Resolution” in the subject line, providing your name, telephone number associated with your account (if any), the email address associated with your account, and a description of your claim. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by this section.
- Rules and Forum. If such informal resolution negotiations do not resolve the Dispute, it shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in Chicago, Illinois. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any arbitration between you and Provi will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Provi. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction
- The Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then you agree to reimburse Provi for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
- Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND PROVI WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. You and Provi are instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and Provi over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND PROVI WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.
- Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. YOU AND PROVI AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO RESOLVE CLAIMS OR DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor Provi is entitled to arbitration; instead all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set forth below.
- Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Section by sending written notice of your decision to opt out by First Class Mail, to Tiz, Inc., 1 N. Dearborn Street, Suite 700, Chicago, Illinois 60602. Any attempt to opt out by email will be ineffective. To be effective, your opt out notice must be postmarked within the later of (a) thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms or (b) thirty (30) days after your first order on the Site. Your notice must include (i) your name and residence address, (ii) the email address and/or telephone number associated with your Account, and (iii) a clear statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. Provi’s updates to these Terms do not provide a new opportunity to opt out of the Arbitration Agreement if you had previously agreed to a version of Provi’s Terms and did not validly opt out of arbitration. Provi will continue to honor the valid opt outs of Users who validly opted out of the Arbitration Agreement in a prior version of the Terms. If you send the opt-out notice in, and/or in any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits either you or Provi to litigate any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms in court, then the foregoing Arbitration Agreement will not apply to either party, and both you and Provi agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or federal courts located in, respectively, Cook County, Illinois, or the federal district in which that county falls.
- If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Arbitration Agreement section will be null and void. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Provi.
- To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, no action arising out of, in connection with, or relating to these Terms shall be brought by you more than one (1) year after the accrual of the cause of action. This period shall not be extended for any reason, except by the written consent of both parties. All statutes or provisions of law which would toll or otherwise affect the running of the period of limitation are hereby waived, and no such statute or provision of law shall operate to extend the period limited in this paragraph, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law.
24. Miscellaneous. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced. You agree that this Agreement and all incorporated agreements may be automatically assigned by Provi in our sole discretion. Headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section. Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. These Terms are the entire agreement between you and Provi and supersede any prior understandings or agreements (written or oral), with the exception of any additional terms and conditions that may be specifically agreed to and applicable to Paid Services
25. Consumer Protection Notice. Please note that, if you are a consumer, the limitations in these Terms are intended to be only as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the laws of your state of residence.
26. Additional Assistance. If you do not understand any of the foregoing Terms or if you have any questions or comments, we ask you to contact us by email at: support@provi.com.
