PLACING YOUR ORDERS ON THE SITE

• All billing and registration information provided by you must be accurate, complete and correct. Submitting inaccurate, incomplete or incorrect information constitutes a breach of the Terms. By confirming your purchase at the end of the checkout process, you agree to accept and pay for the items, products and/or services that you have requested.
• Steel and Pipes and its affiliates and subsidiaries reserve the right, at their sole discretion, to (i) refuse service and to terminate accounts if Steel and Pipes believes in its sole discretion that customer conduct violates applicable law or the Terms, is harmful to the interests of Steel and Pipes, its subsidiaries or its affiliates or for any other reason; (ii) limit the quantity of items purchased per person, per account, per household and per order as determined in their sole discretion; and (iii) refuse or cancel any order you place. These restrictions may be applied to the same account, same credit card and/or the same billing and/or shipping address.
• Steel and Pipes’ acknowledgment of an order signifies that we received your order request, but it does not constitute acceptance of your order or a promise to fulfill your order. We strive to provide accurate information on the Site, but we cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy of all information about items on the Site. You understand that information about items on the Site, including, without limitation, price, availability, specifications and images, may be incomplete or inaccurate. If we determine that information about an item you ordered is inaccurate or incomplete, we reserve the right to cancel that order and refund any applicable charges. Any canceled order placed using a Steel and Pipes Gift Card will have a refund card mailed to the address listed within the billing address line of the online order.
• All items and products purchased through the Site are made pursuant to a shipment contract. The risk of loss and title for such titles pass to you upon Steel and Pipes’ delivery of the items or products to the carrier.
• You may choose to pick up eligible items in a single order from different Steel and Pipes stores. For instance, in the same order, you may choose to pick up an item from one store, another item from a second store and a third item from a third store. The online price for your items will be the price shown at the time you start the checkout process. You understand that the online price may be different from the in-store prices for the same item and will be exclusive of store-specific sales, discounts, rebates or other markdowns available for in-store purchases.
• If you wish to purchase products or services described on the Site, you will be asked to supply certain information applicable to your purchase, including, without limitation, credit card and other information. Your Account will provide you a location to store your information and allow you to make a future purchase without reentering information. You agree to pay all charges incurred by you and any users of your account and your credit card (or other applicable payment mechanism) at the price(s) in effect when such charges are incurred. You will also be responsible for paying any applicable taxes relating to your purchases. The amount of tax displayed when you check out is an estimate and may be updated at the time your card is charged in accordance with our billing policy.
• Tools, products, materials, techniques, building codes and local regulations change; therefore, Steel and Pipes assumes no liability for omissions, errors or the outcome of any project. The reader must always exercise reasonable caution, follow current codes and regulations that may apply, and is urged to consult with a licensed professional if in doubt about any procedures.

Dispute Resolution

Your use of the Site is unauthorized in any jurisdiction that does not give full effect to all provisions of the Terms. Steel and Pipes makes no representation or warranty that Materials and content on the Site are appropriate or available for use in any particular jurisdiction. Your use of the Site is unauthorized in any jurisdiction that does not give full effect to all provisions of the Terms, and you agree not to access this Site in any jurisdiction where all or any portion of the Site violates any legal requirements. You are responsible for complying with all applicable laws. Any use in contravention of any provision of the Terms is at your own risk.  

You and Steel and Pipes each recognize and agree that good faith, informal efforts to resolve disputes often result in prompt, low-cost and mutually beneficial outcomes. Therefore, You and Steel and Pipes each agree that, before either of us may commence an arbitration or assert a claim in small claims court, You and Steel and Pipes will engage in the following informal dispute resolution process:  

• You must first present any claim or dispute to Steel and Pipes by contacting the customer care center to allow Steel and Pipes the opportunity to resolve any dispute. To initiate informal dispute resolution, You must provide Steel and Pipes your full name and contact information; a description of your claim; information about the specific purchase, transaction or matter at issue; your counsel’s name and contact information, if applicable; and a description of the relief sought.  
• You and Steel and Pipes will personally meet and confer, via teleconference or videoconference, in a good faith effort to informally resolve any claim covered by this provision. If either You or Steel and Pipes is represented by counsel, that counsel may, but is not required to, participate in the informal dispute resolution conference.  
• Either party may request arbitration or a proceeding in small claims court, as applicable, if your dispute cannot be resolved within sixty (60) days, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by us.  
• Any statute of limitations will be tolled while You and Steel and Pipes engage in the informal dispute resolution process described in this section. 

Choice of Law, Jurisdiction and Venue:  

• You agree that this agreement and your use of the Site will be governed by the laws of Puerto Rico. By using the Site, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts, tribunals, agencies and other dispute resolution organizations in Puerto Rico, in all disputes (i) arising out of, relating to or concerning this agreement, the Site and your use thereof; (ii) in which the Site and/or this agreement is an issue or a material fact; or (iii) in which the Site or this agreement is referenced in a paper filed in a court, tribunal, agency or other dispute resolution organization.  

Waiver of Rights:  

• YOU AGREE TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY CLAIMS FOR PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES AND ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE CLAIMS ON A CLASS OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, WHICH RELATE IN ANY WAY TO THE SITE OR THIS AGREEMENT.  
• STEEL AND PIPES AND YOU UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM, CROSS CLAIM OR THIRD-PARTY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH ARBITRATION, STEEL AND PIPES AND YOU AGREE THAT THERE WILL NOT BE A JURY TRIAL. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY THIS AGREEMENT YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD AND RESOLVED IN COURT BY A JURY.   

Arbitration: Please read this section carefully because it affects rights that you might otherwise have. It provides for resolution of most disputes through arbitration instead of court proceedings.  

• Arbitration is different than court. There is no judge or jury, but the arbitrator can award damages. Arbitration is final, binding and subject to only limited review by a court. By using the Site, you agree to give up your right to a trial in court except for certain small claims as described below.  
• You agree that this arbitration section shall survive termination of this agreement. This section shall be broadly interpreted to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of or relating to your use of the Site. Any dispute or claim made by you against Steel and Pipes or against any of Steel and Pipes subsidiary, or affiliated companies arising out of or related to your use of the Site, whether based on contract, statute, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, will be resolved by binding arbitration, except that either party may elect to have such claims heard in small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such court.  
• You must first present any claim or dispute to Steel and Pipes by contacting the customer care center to allow Steel and Pipes the opportunity to resolve any dispute, as outlined more fully above. Either party may request arbitration or a proceeding in small claims court, as applicable, if your dispute cannot be resolved within sixty (60) days, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by us. The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted with the rules of a Nationwide Arbitration Organization as modified by this agreement, and there will be NO JURY TRIAL. Any arbitration demand must be signed by the claimant and must include a description of the claim; information about the specific purchase, transaction or matter at issue; and a description of relief sought.  
• You and Steel and Pipes agree that this agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the US Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. Any such arbitration shall be brought and held in Puerto Rico, and will be conducted in the Spanish language. An arbitrator may not (i) award relief in excess of or contrary to what this agreement provides; (ii) order consolidation or arbitration on a classwide or representative basis; or (iii) award punitive damages or any other damages aside from the prevailing party’s actual damages, except that (a) the arbitrator may award on an individual basis damages required by statute and may order injunctive or declaratory relief pursuant to an applicable consumer protection statute, and (b) in the event the claim brought is frivolous, unreasonable or without foundation, or claimant continues to prosecute a claim after the claim becomes frivolous, unreasonable or without foundation, claimant will be required to reimburse respondent for its costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in the investigation, defense and/or settlement of such claims, and all other amounts allowed by law. In any arbitration applying those rules applicable to large and/or complex cases, the arbitrators may also apply the Federal Rules of Evidence, and the losing party may have the award reviewed in accordance with the review procedures set forth in the selected arbitrator’s rules.  
• Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor Steel and Pipes may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement or appeal of the arbitration award. The decisions of the arbitrators shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties involved, and any judgment or decision on any arbitration may be entered in and specifically enforced in any court having proper jurisdiction.  
• If any portion of this section is determined by a court to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder shall be given full force and effect.  
• Claimant will be required to pay any applicable filing fees. All administrative fees and expenses of arbitration will be divided equally between you and Steel and Pipes. Unless an applicable statute expressly permits awarding attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party, each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of evidence at any arbitration hearing. However, as noted above, in the event the claim brought is frivolous, unreasonable or without foundation, or claimant continues to prosecute a claim after the claim becomes frivolous, unreasonable or without foundation, claimant will be required to reimburse respondent for its costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in the investigation, defense and/or settlement of such claims, and all other amounts allowed by law.
