You agree to consult directly with us for instructions relating to quality or regulatory issues, including consumer complaints and withdrawals and recalls.

 (b) You agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with the withdrawal or recall of a Product or Product safety notice if the withdrawal, recall or safety notice is carried out in accordance with generally accepted industry standards and based upon Product test results or other credible evidence indicating that all or part of one or more Product shipments, as a result of a condition that existed at the time of receipt by us, fails to comply with any Applicable Law or any one or more of the representations, warranties or covenants made by you in these Terms, or could otherwise pose a health or safety risk. In the event we determine that any such recall is warranted, we will promptly notify you and the parties shall work together in good faith to determine the cause of the non-conforming Product and the extent of the impact on Products delivered hereunder. At our reasonable request, you agree to cooperate with and assist us with any such withdrawals, recalls and safety notices.

Payment of an invoice will not waive these rights.

6.  Indemnification.

 (a) You agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Indemnitee (defined below) and hereby release the Indemnitee from and against any and all Losses (defined below) to the extent caused by any Claim resulting from (i) the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of you or any of your employees, agents or third parties acting on your behalf in the supply and/or production of the Product; (ii) your failure to comply with Applicable Law or these Terms; (iii) personal bodily injury, illness, death or damage to personal property caused by the presence or activities of you or any of your employees or agents or by the failure of a Product to comply with any claim or representation on your label or the failure of your product label to disclose information about the product including but not limited to information about allergens; or (iv) your production, handling, or disposal of your product, which Claim is brought against an Indemnitee pursuant to California’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65). If the root cause of an adulteration discovered after receipt of your product shipment to the Delivery Point is attributable to the production, processing or packing of the products in the product shipment prior to receipt or the condition of the container at the time of receipt, then the adulteration will be regarded as having existed prior to the time of the acceptance of the product shipment.

 (b) The obligation to indemnify set forth in these Terms includes an obligation to indemnify us and all our affiliates and each of their members, managers, general and limited partners and other owners, their officers, directors, employees, and agents (in each case, an “Indemnitee”).

​

15.  Choice of Law.

These Terms are governed by and will be construed under the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of Washington State without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

​

16.  Arbitration Agreement.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH GOSTO AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. Both you and Gosto acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms, Gosto’s officers, directors, employees and independent contractors (“Personnel”) are third party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third party beneficiary hereof.

 (a) Arbitration Rules; Applicability of Arbitration Agreement.  Any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in Boston, Massachusetts. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. ("JAMS") then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction.

 (b) Costs of Arbitration.  The JAMS rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Gosto will pay all arbitration fees for claims less than $75,000. Gosto will not seek its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.

 (c) Small Claims Court.  Furthermore, either you or Gosto may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Lakewood, Washington or any United States county where you live or work.

  (d) Waiver of Jury Trial.  YOU AND GOSTO WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. You and Gosto are instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and Gosto over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND GOSTO WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.

 (e) Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration; instead all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set forth in (g) below.

 (f) Opt-out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Section by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: 11719 Madera Dr SW Lakewood, WA 98499 postmarked within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. You must include (1) your name and residence address; (2) the email address and/or telephone number associated with your account; and (3) a clear statement that you want to opt out of these Terms’ arbitration agreement.

 (g) Exclusive Venue. If you send the opt-out notice in (f), and/or in any circumstances where the foregoing arbitration agreement permits either you or Gosto to litigate any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms in court, then the foregoing arbitration agreement will not apply to either party and both you and Gosto agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or federal courts located in, respectively, Pierce County, Washington.

​

17. Miscellaneous.

You will be responsible for paying, withholding, filing, and reporting all taxes, duties, and other governmental assessments associated with your activity in connection with the Services, provided that we may, in our sole discretion, do any of the foregoing on your behalf or for Gosto as we see fit. The failure of either you or us to exercise, in any way, any right herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated, to the minimum extent necessary, so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. You and Gosto agree that these Terms are the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding between you and Gosto, and that these Terms supersede and cancel all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other understandings relating to the subject matter of these Terms. You hereby acknowledge and agree that you are not an employee, agent, partner, or joint venture of Gosto, and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind Gosto in any respect whatsoever.
