Representation
First Fill Spirits provides e-commerce infrastructure: each of our Gateways independently, and the collection of Gateways collectively, enables you to search for products, events and services and place and schedule orders with independent, licensed retailers, and other licensees with retail privileges, (“Licensed Fulfillment Agents”) for the purchase and sale of such products, among other things. All orders placed through any of our Gateways are accepted, reviewed, and ultimately fulfilled by Licensed Fulfillment Agents. Sales by Licensed Fulfillment Agents are made at their licensed premises and title to, and ownership of, all ordered items pass from them to you at their licensed premises and you assume all responsibility for the pick-up, delivery or shipment of your order.
By arranging for the pick-up or transportation of your order on your behalf, the Licensed Fulfillment Agent is providing a service to you. Pick-up, delivery and shipment services may be subject to additional policies and procedures of the Licensed Fulfillment Agents and their shipping or delivery company. By using pick-up, delivery or shipping services for any of the products sold on any of our Gateways you represent that you are of legal consumption age and are in compliance with your local and state laws applicable to the purchase, transportation, receipt and/or reporting of your order. You also represent that you have obtained all required permissions, paid all required fees, are working through properly licensed intermediaries where required, are legally entitled to take possession of the order and are legally entitled to take the quantities ordered. You further represent that you are using the Services for lawful purposes and to place orders for personal consumption and not for any re-sale or distribution.

The arbitration will be conducted before a neutral single arbitrator, whose decision will be final and binding, and the arbitral proceedings will be governed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, Consumer Due Process Protocol, and Supplementary Procedures for Resolution of Consumer Related Disputes, as modified by these Terms. The AAA’s rules are available at ADR.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this arbitration clause, but the arbitrator is bound by these Terms. If you initiate arbitration, your arbitration fees will be limited to the filing fee set forth in the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules. We will reimburse all other AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees paid by you for claims totaling less than $10,000, unless the arbitrator determines that the arbitration was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, in which case the payment of all such fees shall be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse First Fill Spirits for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. First Fill Spirits will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claim or the relief sought is improper or not warranted. The arbitration shall be conducted, at the option of the party seeking relief, by telephone, online, based solely on written submissions or in person in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or at a mutually agreed location. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. No claim or action arising from or concerning the Services or otherwise hereunder may be brought later than one (1) year from the date the claim or cause of action arose. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, unconscionability, arbitrability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this arbitration agreement is void or voidable.
WE EACH AGREE THAT TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Further, you agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that if this specific proviso is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration clause shall be null and void. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds the foregoing arbitration provisions invalid or inapplicable, you and we each agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and the exercise of personal jurisdiction of the state or federal court located in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for the purpose of litigating all claims or disputes, and waive any objection as to inconvenient forum. We also both agree that First Fill Spirits may bring suit in court for injunctive relief to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
These Terms and the Privacy Policy set forth the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters contained in these Terms and the Privacy Policy and there are no promises, covenants or undertakings other than those expressly set forth in these Terms and the Privacy Policy.
