a) All purchases or other transactions, including for the sale of goods, made through or facilitated by the Website are governed by our Terms of Sale, which are hereby incorporated into these Terms of Use. In the event of any direct conflict between these Terms of Use and the provisions of the Terms of Sale, the provisions in the Terms of Sale will govern with respect to any purchase or sale of products and services through the Website.

4) Appointments through the Website.
a) From time to time, you may be permitted to book an appointment for services through the Website. By submitting an appointment request, you agree to receive appointment confirmations by email, SMS and/or by any other means of communication after booking an appointment. You agree not to make more than one appointment for a particular time or service. Mavis will use its best endeavors to keep you informed of the status of the appointment.
b) Mavis may charge a booking fee (“Appointment Fee”) for appointments made on the Website for services at a Mavis location (“Service Location”). Mavis may charge a deposit fee (“Deposit”) for certain appointments, including those involving special order tires. Mavis may permit you to pre-pay for services (“Prepayment”) when making an appointment.
c) The Appointment Fee, Deposit and Prepayment may be processed by third-party service providers, which may contain their own terms and conditions. Section 8 (Links to Third-Party Websites) shall apply without limitation to any third parties processing Appointment Fees, Deposits or Prepayments.
d) The Appointment Fee, Deposit and Prepayment (each as applicable) will be adjusted by Mavis against the total bill for the services (“Services Bill”) provided by Mavis in connection with the appointment. You will be responsible to pay any balance amount remaining to be paid after deduction of the Appointment Fee, Deposit and Prepayment (as applicable) from the Services Bill, in addition to any other charges and/or applicable taxes that may be applicable to the services.
e) Any request for modification to the appointment will be subject to acceptance of the same by the Service Location. Requests to reschedule an appointment or to cancel an appointment and receive a refund may be made by calling the Service Location at least seventy-two (72) hours prior to the scheduled appointment time. The Appointment Fee and Deposit (as applicable) will become non-refundable seventy-two (72) hours prior to the original scheduled appointment time, or if the appointment has been rescheduled, then seventy-two (72) hours after the original scheduled appointment time. Consequently, the Appointment Fee and Deposit paid for appointments scheduled, and subsequently canceled, with less than seventy-two (72) hours’ notice will not be refunded. Mavis will not refund Appointment Fees or Deposits for missed appointments or for appointments cancelled less than seventy-two (72) hours prior to the appointment time. Mavis will refund a Prepayment, excluding any applicable Deposit, for a missed or cancelled appointment in all instances.
f) Mavis advises you to arrive 10 minutes in advance of the scheduled appointment time to the Service Location. The Service Location reserves the right to cancel your appointment and allocate your services slot to other customers in case of late arrivals, and Mavis shall in no manner be liable for such cancellation initiated by the Service Location. Mavis hereby reserves its right to retain any Appointment Fee or Deposit you may have paid, in the event you are late by more than 10 minutes from the scheduled booking time and/or fail to show up at the Service Location.

a) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL MAVIS, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS, OR DIRECTORS (“MAVIS PARTIES”) BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE WEBSITE, ANY WEBSITES LINKED TO IT, ANY CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE OR SUCH OTHER WEBSITES, INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PERSONAL INJURY, PAIN AND SUFFERING, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE. OUR SOLE AND ENTIRE MAXIMUM LIABILITY UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE, FOR ANY REASON, AND YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE ACTUAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES YOU HAVE ORDERED THROUGH OUR WEBSITE DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE APPLICABLE LIABILITY.
b) THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
12) Force Majeure. We will not be liable or responsible to you, nor be deemed to have defaulted or breached these Terms of Use, for any failure or delay in our performance under these Terms of Use when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, governmental actions, war, invasion or hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest, national emergency, revolution, insurrection, epidemic, pandemic, lockouts, strikes or other labor disputes (whether or not relating to our workforce), or restraints or delays affecting carriers or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials, materials or telecommunication breakdown or power outage.
13) Governing Law and Jurisdiction. All matters arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of New York.
14) Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.
a) Before bringing any dispute or claim, a notice of the dispute must be sent. Should you have a dispute or claim, you should send notice to us at 358 Saw Mill River Road, Millwood, New York 10546. To be valid, a notice of dispute must contain all of the following information:
Your or our name(s)
Your contact information, including your email address and phone number
You or our signature(s)
A brief description of the nature of your or our dispute (enclose any supporting documents you or we wish to provide)
A brief description of the nature of the relief you or we would like
b) If we are unable to resolve the claims described in the notice within forty-five (45) calendar days after the notice is received by you or us, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding or suit in small claims court. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the American Arbitration Association's (“AAA”) website at www.adr.org. The notice of dispute requirements are essential in order to give the parties a meaningful chance to resolve disputes informally. You and we agree that if we fail to comply with the notice of dispute requirements, then the arbitrator or the small claims court shall dismiss any claim or dispute initiated in violation of these provisions.
c) YOU AND MAVIS EACH AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND US ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THROUGH THE SITE OR TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH US, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT.
d) BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND MAVIS ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING.
e) The arbitration will be administered by the AAA in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this Section 14. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In the event that the AAA is unavailable to administer the arbitration, another administrator will be selected by the parties or by the court. Any arbitration hearing shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or we may elect to have the arbitration conducted based solely on written submissions, unless any party requests an in-person, telephonic, or videoconference hearing or the arbitrator decides that such a hearing is necessary. In cases where an in-person hearing is held, you and/or we may attend by telephone or videoconference, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise. Any settlement offer made by you or us shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator, except in connection with any request by you or us for attorney’s fees and costs.
f) The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the arbitrability, enforceability, or scope of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the agreement is void, voidable, or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity, although the arbitrator may only award relief (including monetary, injunctive and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s individual claims. In the event the arbitrator determines that either the substance of your or our claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, then you or we may seek to recover from us or you, respectively, any fees you or we paid, including attorneys’ fees, to the extent permitted by the AAA’s rules and applicable law. Any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
g) You or we may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide us with written notice of your intention do so within sixty (60) calendar days of your purchase. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.
h) You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER YOU NOR MAVIS WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER. Unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitral tribunal or arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal or arbitrator has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.
i) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
j) If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of Section 14(b-i) within thirty (30) calendar days after the date that you agree to these Terms of Use by sending notice to us at 358 Saw Mill River Road, Millwood, New York 10546 that specifies: Your full legal name, your contact information, including your email address and phone number, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Mavis receives your Opt-Out Notice, the arbitration agreement that appears in Section 14(b-i) will not apply to you or us. The remaining provisions of these Terms of Use will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
15) Miscellaneous.
a) Interpretation. The conjunction “or” will be understood in its inclusive sense (and/or). The words “such as”, “include”, “includes” and “including” are not limiting and will be deemed to be followed with the phrase “without limitation”. The headings contained in these Terms of Use are inserted for convenience of reference only and will not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Terms of Use.

References to the Terms of Sale and Privacy Policy means such documents as amended, supplemented, and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof.
b) Entire Agreement. These Terms of Use, the Terms of Sale, and our Privacy Policy will be deemed the final and integrated agreement between you and us on the matters contained in these Terms of Use, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding these Terms of Use. For the avoidance of doubt, these Terms of Use do not supersede any other terms that may be applicable with respect to Mavis’s products and services.
c) Assignment. You will not assign any of your rights or delegate any of your obligations under these Terms of Use without our prior written consent. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 15 is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves you of any of your obligations under these Terms of Use.
d) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. These Terms of Use do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than you.
e) No Waiver. No waiver by Mavis of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Mavis to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The waiver of any right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Mavis.
f) Severability. If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.
g) Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications hereunder (each, a “Notice”) must be sent in writing to 358 Saw Mill River Road, Millwood, New York 10546. Mavis will send Notices for you to the email address, if any, that you have provided to us.
