Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
Our Sites are operated and provided in the State of California. The laws of the State of California govern these Terms and Conditions and your access to the Sites and the Services, without giving effect to any choice of law rules. We make no representation that our Sites or Services are appropriate, legal or available for use in other locations. Subject to the “Arbitration of Disputes” section below, you agree to submit all claims arising from or related to your relationship with us to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Ventura County, California, and you waive any objections to jurisdiction, venue or forum. In any action between us, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees and costs.
Arbitration of Disputes
We encourage you to speak with counsel of your own choosing before using the Sites or completing any purchase to better understand this arbitration provision.
If any disputes arise, please call us at 888-347-4622. If we are unable to resolve the matter to your satisfaction, you and Simba each agree to submit the dispute either to small claims court or to binding arbitration. If the total amount in dispute is $10,000.00 or less, the claim(s) shall be filed in small claims court, and the decision of the court shall be final. If the total amount in dispute is more than $10,000.00, the claim(s) shall be submitted to binding arbitration, as follows.
The party who intends to seek arbitration must first send, by U.S. certified mail, a written notice of dispute to the other party. The notice must describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and set forth the specific relief sought. The parties then shall attempt in good faith to informally resolve the dispute. If no resolution is reached within 30 days after the notice is received, either party may commence an arbitration proceeding before the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (JAMS). You may commence an arbitration proceeding by contacting JAMS at (213) 620-1133 or through their website, https://www.jamsadr.com. The JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures then in effect shall apply to the proceedings. Those rules are available on the JAMS website. The arbitration shall be conducted in Ventura County, California, before a single arbitrator. The fees of the arbitrator shall be shared equally between the parties.
The parties agree that, by assenting to these Terms and Conditions, they are each waiving the right to a trial by jury.
You further agree that you will not assert any class action or other representative claims arising from or relating to this policy or your use of our Sites or Services. The waiver of class or other representative claims shall not apply, where a waiver of this type is prohibited by law.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and defend us and to hold us harmless from and against all damages and liabilities caused in whole or in part by any unlawful actions or breaches of this policy committed by you, arising from or related to your use of our Sites or your dealings with our company. Your indemnity obligations cover any damages and liabilities arising from or related to any request submitted to us, including without limitation, requests for disclosure or deletion of personal information, and any unauthorized access to our Sites or computer systems obtained or facilitated through your computer or other electronic device.
Limitation of Liability
You agree that in no event will our liability to you or any person claiming through you or on your behalf exceed the total payments you have made to us for any goods or services purchased in the 12 months prior to the submission of the claim.
Your Consent

Right to Refuse to Provide Service
We reserve the right to cancel any account and refuse to provide services to anyone, for any reason, at any time.
Your Information and Email Transmissions
You are required to take appropriate precautions when sending us any information that may be considered private or confidential.

Claims of Infringement
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA“) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by Simba infringe your copyright, you or your agent may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed or access to it blocked.

Severability
If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is determined to be unlawful, void or unenforceable for any reason, the other provisions (and any partially enforceable provision) shall not be affected thereby and shall remain valid and enforceable to the maximum possible extent.
Assignment
You agree that your obligations under these Terms and Conditions and any other agreements between you and us may be assigned by us, in our sole discretion, to a third party as we deem appropriate in our sole discretion.
Waiver
Waiver of any provision herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any other provision herein, nor shall waiver of any breach of these Terms and Conditions be construed as a continuing waiver of other breaches of the same or other provisions of these Terms and Conditions. Neither failure nor delay on the part of Simba to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder nor course of dealing between the parties shall operate as a waiver thereof, or of the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
