3. Dispute Resolution

Our Customer Care team is ready to assist you and address your concerns via email at support@creativebug.com or by phone or text from 9a-6p EST at 330-735-6576 or by email at customer.service@joann.com at any time.

For purposes of this Section 3 (Dispute Resolution), "CREATIVEBUG" shall include its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns.

THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM OR ACTION, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THE AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR CREATIVEBUG WOULD HAVE IN COURT, SUCH AS APPELLATE REVIEW, ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

If you and Creativebug have a Dispute (defined below) and our customer care team is unable to resolve the concern, you and Creativebug agree to make a good faith effort to resolve it informally prior to initiating a formal arbitration proceeding. The party that intends to initiate an arbitration proceeding must first send a verified Notice to the other party that describes the Dispute. The Notice must include (A) the initiating party's name and contact information (address, telephone number, and email address); (B) sufficient information to enable the other party to identify any transaction at issue; and (C) a detailed description of (1) the Dispute, (2) the nature and basis of the claims, and (3) the nature and basis of the relief sought, with a detailed calculation. Your Notice must be sent by email to: legal@joann.com or by mail to: Jo-Ann Stores, LLC Attn: Legal, 5555 Darrow Road, Hudson, OH 44236. You must personally sign the Notice. Creativebug's Notice must be sent to the most recent contact information we have on file for you. If requested by the party that receives the Notice, the other party must personally appear at and participate in a telephone settlement conference (if a party is represented by counsel, counsel may also participate) to discuss the Dispute. If the Dispute is not resolved within 60 days after receipt of the Notice (which period can be extended by agreement of the parties), you or Creativebug may commence a formal dispute resolution proceeding consistent with the process set forth below. Compliance with and completing this informal dispute resolution process is a condition precedent to filing any formal dispute resolution proceeding, including a demand for arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in this informal dispute resolution process. If the sufficiency of a Notice or compliance with this informal dispute resolution process is at issue, it may be decided by a court at either party's election, and any formal dispute resolution proceeding shall be stayed pending resolution of the issue. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce this condition precedent to arbitration, which includes the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of a demand for arbitration.

If we are unable to resolve the Dispute through the mandatory informal dispute resolution process, you and we agree that, except as set forth below, all claims, controversies, or disputes between you and Creativebug will be resolved entirely through binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, including, without limitation, such claims, controversies, or disputes arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and Creativebug, your access or use of our Website (including claims relating to our advertisements and disclosures, email and mobile SMS/text messages sent by Creativebug, or Creativebug’s collection or use of your information) or any Offerings offered by or purchased from Creativebug through our Site, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory ("Dispute").

BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO BRING AND PROSECUTE ANY DISPUTES WITH CREATIVEBUG IN A COURT OF LAW OR BEFORE A JURY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BRING CLASS ACTIONS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, no class actions, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. An arbitrator, however, can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court, in favor or against only the parties to the arbitration and only to the extent necessary to provide the relief warranted by the party's individual claim, including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages. The arbitrator may not award relief to any person or entity other than a party to the arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator must follow these Terms as a court would. The arbitrator may not consider any prior settlement offers in making the decision. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitration award shall be binding only among the parties to the arbitration and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party, provided that the arbitrator may consider rulings in other arbitrations involving different individuals.

We agree that the arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), adr.org. If the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to administer arbitrations consistent with this Dispute Resolution section, another arbitration provider shall be selected by the parties that will administer arbitrations consistent with this Dispute Resolution section. If the parties cannot agree on a provider, one shall be selected by the court that will administer arbitrations consistent with this Dispute Resolution section. To begin an arbitration proceeding, after satisfying the condition precedent identified above, you or Creativebug must (1) send a verified and personally signed demand for arbitration that describes (a) the nature and basis of your claims, and (b) the nature and basis of the relief sought, including a detailed calculation, along with a certification that you or we are party to this Dispute Resolution Section and completed the information dispute resolution process referenced above to: Jo-Ann Stores, LLC Attn: Legal, 5555 Darrow Road, Hudson, OH 44236 or to the most recent address we have on file for you, and (2) contact the AAA and follow the appropriate procedures with the AAA to commence the arbitration.

The AAA consumer rules for arbitration will apply as modified by this Dispute Resolution section. Except as expressly provided in this Dispute Resolution section, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Dispute Resolution section including, but not limited to, a claim that all or any part of it is void or voidable. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's applicable consumer rules. The parties shall be responsible for their own attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration, unless they are authorized by law, or the arbitrator determines that a claim was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose or in bad faith. The arbitrator shall have the authority under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 to issue sanctions against any party and counsel as a court would. In addition, the provisions of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 shall apply and be enforced by the arbitrator. The arbitration may be conducted by telephone, virtually, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location as set forth in the AAA rules. You and a Creativebug representative shall personally appear (with counsel if you and we are represented) at an initial telephone conference with a case manager before an arbitrator is appointed and at a hearing should one be scheduled by the arbitrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Creativebug will pay all fees and costs that we are required by law to pay.

AS SET FORTH ABOVE, WE EACH AGREE TO BRING ANY DISPUTE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY, AND NOT ON A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR COLLECTIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS IN ARBITRATION AND LITIGATION. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

A Dispute may not be consolidated with a claim by any person or entity that is not a party to the arbitration proceeding, and the arbitrator may not otherwise preside over any form of a class, consolidated, representative, collective, or private attorney general proceeding. If a court determines that any of the prohibitions on non-individualized relief; class, representative, and private attorney general claims; and consolidation are unenforceable with respect to a particular claim or with respect to a particular request for relief (such as a request for injunctive relief), and all appeals from that decision have been exhausted (or the decision is otherwise final), then the parties agree that that particular claim or request for relief may proceed in court but shall be stayed pending arbitration of the remaining claims. Specifically, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3 (Dispute Resolution), the arbitrator may not issue a "public injunction" and any such "public injunction," if permitted, may be awarded only by a federal or state court. If either party is permitted to seek a "public injunction," all other claims and prayers for relief must be adjudicated in arbitration first and any such prayer or claim for a "public injunction" in federal or state court stayed until the arbitration is completed, after which the federal or state court can adjudicate the party's claim or prayer for "public injunctive relief." In doing so, the federal or state court is bound under principles of claim or issue preclusion by the decision of the arbitrator.

Special Additional Procedures for Mass Arbitration: If 25 or more similar claims are asserted against Creativebug by the same or coordinated counsel or are otherwise coordinated (and your claim is one such claim), you understand and agree that the resolution of your Dispute might be delayed. You also agree to the following process and application of the AAA Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule and Supplementary Rules. Counsel for the claimants and counsel for Creativebug will each select 10 cases (per side) to proceed first in individual arbitration proceedings as part of a bellwether process. The remaining cases shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration nor shall any AAA fees be assessed in connection with those claims until they are selected to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the initial 20 proceedings, the parties shall participate in a global mediation session before a retired state or federal court judge, and Creativebug shall pay the mediator's fee. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining matters in mediation at this time, each side will select 20 cases (per side) to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings as part of a second bellwether process. (If there are fewer than 40 claims remaining, all will proceed.) The remaining cases shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration nor shall any AAA fees be assessed in connection with those cases until they are selected to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. A single arbitrator shall preside over each case. Only one case may be assigned to each arbitrator as part of a bellwether process unless the parties agree otherwise. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the 40 proceedings, the parties shall participate in another global mediation session before a retired state or federal court judge, and Creativebug shall pay the mediator's fee. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining matters in mediation at this time, this staged process shall continue with 100 cases proceeding at one time that are selected randomly or by the AAA in staged sets, until all the claims included in these coordinated filings, including your case, are adjudicated or otherwise resolved. Between staged sets of proceedings, Creativebug agrees to participate in a global mediation session if your counsel requests it in an effort to resolve all remaining claims. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled for claims subject to this Dispute Resolution section from the time the first cases are selected for a bellwether process until the time your case is selected, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have authority to enforce this paragraph and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing or prosecution of arbitration demands against Creativebug. If a court of competent jurisdiction declines to enforce these "Special Additional Procedures for Mass Arbitration," you and we agree that your and our counsel shall engage in good faith with the assistance of a Process Arbitrator to devise and implement procedures that ensure that arbitration remains efficient and cost-effective for all parties. Either party may engage with the AAA to address reductions in arbitration fees.

If Creativebug makes any future change to the arbitration provisions of this Section 3 (Dispute Resolution) (other than a change to the notice email/address), you may reject any such change by sending Creativebug a personally signed, written notice of your decision to opt out of those changes via email to legal@joann.com. This notice must be sent within 30 days of the change and include: (A) your full name; (B) your mailing address; (C) your phone number; (D) if applicable, the email address associated with your account; and (E) when and how you interacted with Creativebug. Such an opt-out email must be sent by you personally, and not by your agent, attorney, or anyone else purporting to act on your behalf. It must include a statement that you wish to reject the change to the arbitration provision. This is not an opt-out of arbitration altogether. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Dispute Resolution section.

4. Governing Law and Venue

Other than as expressly stated herein, the law applicable to the interpretation and construction of these Terms and any Offering using or related to the Site shall be the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal laws, and the laws of the State of Ohio, USA, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, but subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and other federal law relating to the arbitrability of claims. You agree that all matters relating to your access to or use of the Site, including all Disputes, will be governed by the laws of the United States and by the laws of the State of Ohio.

Unless you and Creativebug agree otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the state and federal courts in Summit County, Ohio, will have exclusive jurisdiction over any Disputes (except for those brought in small claims court) that are not subject to arbitration or over any action involving the applicability or enforceability of the Dispute Resolution Section or any of its provisions. You and Creativebug consent to the jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objections as to personal jurisdiction or as to the laying of venue in such courts due to inconvenient forum or any other basis or any right to seek to transfer or change venue of any such action to another court.

5. Changes

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change these Terms at any time, effective 10 days after posting of the revised Terms on the Site. Except as otherwise provided, your continued use of the Site or any Offerings after such posting or notification means you accept all revisions. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must terminate this agreement pursuant to the termination provisions below, and discontinue your use of this Site and all Offerings. Except solely as provided in this paragraph and the severability provision of these Terms, these Terms may not be changed without the handwritten (non-electronic) signature of an authorized person at Creativebug.

6. Billing and Payment Methods

By starting your Creativebug subscription, or purchasing a class or other Offering, you expressly authorize us to charge the applicable Offering price, or subscription fee, at the then-current rate, plus any applicable taxes, plus any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services or purchase of Products. These amounts will be charged to the Payment Method you provide. All prices are listed in U.S. dollars and are valid until changed by us. We reserve the right to validate all payment tenders made to us. Subscriptions (including gift subscriptions) will activate on the date of purchase. The subscription period begins on that date.

Billing is automatic and recurring for subscriptions and gift subscriptions. We will bill your Payment Method for such amounts:

• At the end of the free trial period of your subscription, unless you cancel before the end of the free trial period (See Section 8 for how to cancel);
• At the beginning of your subscription or gift subscription; and
• At the beginning of each subsequent corresponding subscription or gift subscription period thereafter, unless and until you cancel your subscription before such renewal (See Section 8 for how to cancel).

Automatic billing does not occur for non-renewing subscriptions and non-renewing gift subscriptions.

Discounts, rebates or other special offers are only valid for the initial subscription period; subscriptions renew at the then-current full subscription rate.

You must have a valid Payment Method to purchase a class or other Offering, subscribe to our Services or purchase a gift subscription. We reserve the right to change the Payment Methods we accept at any time without notice.

If you want to use a different Payment Method, or if there is a change in Payment Method, such as your credit card validity or expiration date, you may edit your Payment Method information by logging on to your account and clicking on the Account Profile icon, then selecting the Account menu available at the top of the pages of the Site. If your Payment Method reaches its expiration date and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your Account, you authorize us to continue billing that Payment Method and you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. (See Section 8 for how to cancel).

If we are unable to process a payment using your selected Payment Method, we may, but are under no obligation to, call or email you to ask whether you wish to use an alternate Payment Method. We may refuse to provide a class, terminate your Subscription, withhold upgrades to the Services, and take such other action as appropriate if we are unable to process your Payment Method and you do not provide an alternate Payment Method. If payment is not successful for whatever reason, you remain responsible to us for any unpaid amounts. You agree to reimburse us for any and all costs incurred in collecting amounts owed by you to us or any of our suppliers, or incurred by us in collecting any payment, including attorneys’ fees and costs of collection agencies.

7. Subscription Fees and Discounts

Subscription fees and charges for both standard automatically renewing and non-renewing subscriptions and gift subscriptions are fully earned upon payment. Unused subscription fees are non-refundable.

If an existing Subscriber receives either a non-renewing subscription or non-renewing gift subscription, we will either (a) credit the value of the non-renewing subscription or non-renewing gift subscription toward the Subscriber’s renewal subscription or gift subscription payment obligations, if the non-renewing subscription or gift subscription period is shorter than the Subscriber’s existing subscription or gift subscription, or (b) commence the non-renewing subscription or gift subscription after the termination of the Subscriber’s existing subscription or gift subscription, if the non-renewing subscription or gift subscription period is longer than the Subscriber’s existing subscription.

Gift subscriptions have no exchange, cash or surrender value. Each Subscriber’s License (as described in Section 11) is expressly conditioned upon timely payment of all applicable subscription fees.

At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, bonus, or other consideration to some or all of our Subscribers (“considerations”). The amount and form of such considerations, and the decision to provide them (or not), is at our sole and absolute discretion. The provision of considerations in one instance does not entitle you to considerations in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate us to provide considerations in the future, under any circumstance.

Additional charges for Services may include gift subscription purchases you make, or changes in subscription plans. We may change the fees and charges in effect, or add new fees and charges from time to time, but we will give you at least 30 days’ advance notice of these changes by email. Such notices to you shall be deemed to have been given upon transmission.

8. Subscription Plans; Class Credits; Video (Class) Sales

We offer monthly recurring subscriptions, a 12-month recurring subscription, and 12-month recurring and non-recurring gift subscriptions, and a la carte class sales. Currently, there are two subscription types: Unlimited, and Unlimited Plus. An Unlimited Subscriber receives full access to all classes on the Site. An Unlimited Plus subscriber receives full access to all classes on the Site and one Class Credit per month. We also may, but are not promising to, offer trial periods, special promotional plans, bundled plans, premium services with respect to one or more types or categories of Content, and subscriptions with different limitations.

We reserve the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend our subscription plans at any time without prior notice.

Recipients of gift subscriptions will receive a welcome email from us notifying them of their gift. Subscriptions (including gift subscriptions) will activate on the date of purchase. The subscription period begins on that date. To view the specific details of your subscription, visit the Site and click on the Account Profile icon to view your Membership Plan information.

How to Cancel Your Subscription: You can cancel your subscription from creativebug.com anytime by logging in and choosing Account Profile icon from the top right side of the navigation menu, then selecting “Edit Profile” and then “Cancel” under Billing & Information. These Terms survive the cancellation or termination of your subscription.

Class Credits – Unlimited Plus Subscribers. Class Credits are an added Unlimited Plus Subscriber benefit which can be redeemed to add classes to a User’s Library. Each credit allows the addition of a single class to the Library. Access to classes within a User’s Library does not expire, and Users will continue to have access to the classes in their Library even after they are no longer active Unlimited Plus Subscribers.

Unlimited Plus Subscribers with active subscriptions will receive one Class Credit at the time of the initial subscription purchase, and one additional Class Credit with each monthly renewal charge. Subscribers in a free trial period will not earn a Class Credit until the free trial has ended and an initial payment of a paid subscription has been made. Class Credits received but not yet redeemed will be displayed in a user’s profile next to the My Classes tab.

A User must have an active subscription to redeem Class Credits. If a User’s subscription has expired and the User has Class Credits remaining, the User must reactivate their subscription within six months in order to redeem Class Credits. With the reactivation of a subscription, the User will also receive one additional Class Credit that can be redeemed at any time through the duration of a paid subscription.

Class Credits may be redeemed through the Site. Class Credits cannot be redeemed through mobile applications. Once a Class has been added to the Library, that class may not be exchanged for a different class. Once a Class has been added to the Library it may not be credited for a future Class Credit.

We reserve the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend the offering of class credits at any time without prior notice.

Class Credits – 12-Month Unlimited Plus and Unlimited Plus Subscriptions. Recipients and purchasers of 12-month recurring subscriptions and gift subscriptions will receive all eligible Class Credits when the recurring subscription or gift subscription is added to an active subscription account. For example, when a 12-month subscription is added to an account, the subscriber will receive 12 Class Credits. No additional Class Credits will be given for the duration of the recurring subscription or gift subscription, until the next renewal payment is received.

Video Class Sales

When available, Users may buy video classes either separately or bundled. To order a video class, you will need to follow the ordering procedures on the Site. Pricing details for video classes and the procedures for payment and delivery are displayed on the Site. Prices are subject to change without notice.
