Any dispute arising between You and Riedel that is not resolved pursuant to the Dispute Resolution section below shall be resolved exclusively by the state and/or federal courts of the state of New Jersey.

Dispute resolution

Due to the high cost of litigation, in time and money, both You and Riedel agree to the following dispute resolution:

In the event of any claim, action, dispute or controversy arising from, or related to the Agreement or any transaction conducted on the Site, the party asserting the dispute will first try to settle such dispute in good faith by providing written notice to the other party. The notice must be sent by registered mail, must describe the issues of the dispute, and must include substantiating documentation related to the dispute. The parties agree to 30 days from receipt of dispute to respond or settle dispute. For disputes against Riedel, notice shall be mailed to:

Crystal of America, Inc.
110 Fieldcrest Avenue
Raritan Plaza 1, 4th Floor
NJ 08837, USA

To the extent not resolved through the process described above, the parties agree to arbitrate any claim, dispute, or controversy, including all statutory claims and any state or federal claims, that may arise out of or relate to the Agreement or Privacy Policy, or any transaction conducted on the Site. All arbitration hearings shall take place in the state of New Jersey. By agreeing to arbitration, the parties understand and agree that they are waiving their rights to maintain other available resolution processes, such as a court action or an administrative proceeding, to settle their disputes.

In relation to the above described claims, disputes, and controversies, the parties also agree to give up any right they may have (1) to bring a class or collective action lawsuit or class or collective action arbitration, or participate in either as a claimant, or (2) to consolidate their arbitration with the arbitration of others.
