Inhalation of vapor from MELLÖ BEANS products may trigger reactions such as cough, as well as aggravate pre-existing respiratory or heart conditions.
Additionally, ingestion of nicotine, at any level, may cause other conditions (such as an increase in your heart rate and blood pressure, dizziness, nausea, and stomach pain). MELLÖ BEANS products are designed for adult smokers to transition away from combustible cigarettes. If you do not currently use nicotine containing products, we recommend that you do not start.

XV. ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
Read this Section carefully because it requires the parties to arbitrate their disputes and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from MELLOBEANS.com. For any dispute with MELLOBEANS.com, you agree to first contact us via e-mail and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally.
Arbitration. In the unlikely event that MELLOBEANS.com has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after sixty (60) days, you and MELLOBEANS.com each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms, the breach or alleged breach thereof, or your purchase or use of MELLÖ BEANS Products (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by AECADR, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect for AECADR, except as provided herein (including the exclusion of any claims brought by MELLOBEANS.com for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided in Section 16 below).
AECADR may be contacted at www.aecadr.com. The arbitration will be conducted online, unless you and MELLOBEANS.com agree otherwise. If you are an individual using MELLOBEANS.com Products, services, or the Website for non-commercial purposes: (i) AECADR may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from AECADR; (ii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction consistent with the requirements in Section 16 below.
Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver. With respect to all persons and entities, regardless of whether they have obtained or used the Website or MELLOBEANS.com Products or services for personal, commercial or other purposes, all claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action, collective action, private attorney general action or other representative proceeding. This waiver applies to class arbitration, and, unless MELLOBEANS.com’ agrees otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims.
You agree that, by entering into this agreement, you and MELLOBEANS.com are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action, collective action, private attorney general action, or other representative proceeding of any kind.
XVI. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE
These Terms and Conditions will be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its principles of conflict of laws. Exclusive venue for any action to determine the enforceability of the arbitration provision in Section 15 or the arbitrability thereunder of any dispute, or to enforce an arbitral award rendered pursuant to these Terms and Conditions will be the state or federal courts of Los Angeles, California. You agree that Los Angeles, California is the proper forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the arbitration provision in Section 15 is found to be unenforceable. You agree not to bring any such actions in any other venue and you expressly agree to waive all objections to these venues.
You expressly consent to be subject to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of California. You agree that: (i) the Website and MELLOBEANS.com Products and services shall be deemed solely based in California; and (ii) the Website and MELLOBEANS.com’ services shall be deemed passive ones that do not give rise to personal jurisdiction over MELLOBEANS.com, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than California.
The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of these Terms shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). THE APPLICATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS IS EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED.
