PART III: MEDICAL, NUTRITION, SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH & EDUCATIONAL CONTENT

 

SECTION 15: IMPORTANT HEALTH INFORMATION
Alpha Shakes™ Products are meal replacement products intended to support a healthy lifestyle. They are not individualized nutrition plans and are not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
The information provided through our Website, Product packaging, emails, text messages, social media channels, advertisements, customer support communications, Educational Content, Scientific References, and other materials is provided solely for general informational and educational purposes.
Nothing provided by Alpha Shakes™ creates a physician-patient, dietitian-patient, therapist-patient, or other healthcare professional relationship.
You should always seek the advice of your physician or another qualified healthcare provider regarding any medical condition, dietary change, medication, treatment plan, or health concern. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking treatment because of information obtained from Alpha Shakes™.
If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, immediately call 911 or contact the appropriate emergency medical services provider.

 

SECTION 16: FDA AND PRODUCT CLAIMS
Unless expressly stated otherwise on applicable Product labeling, Alpha Shakes™ Products are intended to be conventional food and meal replacement products, not drugs.
Alpha Shakes™ Products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent, or mitigate any disease, illness, disorder, injury, or medical condition. No statement made by Alpha Shakes™ should be interpreted as a representation that any Product will diagnose, treat, cure, prevent, mitigate, or eliminate any disease, illness, disorder, injury, or medical condition.
Statements regarding Products, ingredients, nutritional information, Scientific References, Educational Content, testimonials, reviews, or other materials are intended to provide general nutrition, wellness, or educational information and must not be understood as medical advice or disease-related claims.
If Alpha Shakes™ offers a Product in the future that is regulated as a dietary supplement, drug, or other specially regulated product, Alpha Shakes™ will provide any additional labeling, disclaimers, disclosures, or notices required by applicable law for that Product.
 
SECTION 17: SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH & EDUCATIONAL CONTENT
Alpha Shakes™ believes nutrition decisions should be informed by evidence whenever possible.
Accordingly, we may provide Educational Content discussing:
nutritional science;
• ingredient research;
peer-reviewed publications;
clinical studies;
scientific literature;
historical research;
traditional ingredient uses;
expert commentary; and
emerging areas of nutrition science.
This information is intended solely to educate consumers and promote informed decision-making.
Scientific understanding evolves over time.
New studies may confirm, refine, contradict, or replace previous findings.
Accordingly, Alpha Shakes™ does not represent or warrant that Educational Content will always reflect the most current scientific consensus or that every Scientific Reference will remain applicable indefinitely.
Educational Content should not be relied upon as the sole basis for making health, dietary, exercise, supplementation, or medical decisions.

 

SECTION 18: CLINICALLY STUDIED INGREDIENTS
Alpha Shakes™ may reference clinically studied ingredients incorporated into our Products.
Unless expressly stated otherwise:
(a) referenced clinical studies were conducted on individual ingredients rather than Alpha Shakes™ finished Products;
(b) ingredient-specific research should not be interpreted as research conducted on Alpha Shakes™ Products as a whole;
(c) ingredient dosage, study design, participant population, duration, methodology, outcome measures, and other variables may differ from the composition or recommended use of Alpha Shakes™ Products;
(d) scientific references are provided solely for educational purposes and should not be interpreted as guarantees of performance or outcomes.
The inclusion of an ingredient in an Alpha Shakes™ Product does not constitute a representation that every consumer will experience the same results observed in published research.

 

SECTION 19: INDIVIDUAL RESULTS MAY VARY
Every individual is different.
Nutrition, exercise, genetics, age, medications, existing health conditions, lifestyle, sleep, stress, dietary habits, and countless other factors influence individual responses to food and nutritional products.
Accordingly:
individual experiences will vary;
testimonials are individual experiences only;
customer reviews are not guarantees of future performance;
before-and-after experiences are not representative of every customer;
no Product is guaranteed to produce any particular outcome.
Any descriptions of energy, mood, recovery, cognition, performance, vitality, wellness, or similar concepts are general product descriptions and should not be interpreted as guarantees of individual results.
 
SECTION 20: TESTIMONIALS & CUSTOMER EXPERIENCES
Testimonials, reviews, ratings, photographs, videos, social media posts, and other customer experiences displayed by Alpha Shakes™ represent the personal opinions and experiences of individual customers.
They are provided for illustrative purposes only. Testimonials:
· are not intended to represent or guarantee that any current or future customer will achieve similar results;
· should not be interpreted as scientific evidence;
· do not constitute medical claims;
· may have been edited for grammar, spelling, formatting, or length without altering their substantive meaning; and
· may reflect the experience of customers who received free Products, promotional benefits, discounts, affiliate commissions, or other compensation, where such connection is disclosed as required by applicable law.
Alpha Shakes™ does not intentionally publish fake reviews or testimonials, does not require customers to provide only positive reviews, and does not condition any incentive on a customer providing a positive review. Customer experiences may vary.

 

SECTION 21: NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION
Nutritional information, ingredient lists, serving sizes, allergen information, product images, descriptions, and packaging are provided for convenience.
While Alpha Shakes™ strives for accuracy, formulations, ingredients, nutritional values, sourcing, appearance, packaging, and labeling may change from time to time.
Customers should always review the actual Product packaging before consumption.
If there is any conflict between Website content and Product packaging, the Product packaging controls.
 
SECTION 22: ALLERGENS AND INGREDIENT SENSITIVITIES
Current Alpha Shakes™ Products contain:
Milk
Egg
Tree Nut (Coconut)

Consumption of any Product is at your own risk.
You are solely responsible for determining whether a Product is appropriate for your individual dietary needs.

SECTION 24: NO GUARANTEE OF HEALTH OUTCOMES
Alpha Shakes™ believes that long-term health is influenced by numerous factors including nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress management, genetics, environment, and personal lifestyle choices.
No Product offered by Alpha Shakes™ guarantees improved health, disease prevention, weight management, physical performance, mental performance, hormonal status, longevity, athletic performance, or any other specific outcome.
Alpha Shakes™ Products should be viewed as one component of an overall healthy lifestyle rather than a substitute for balanced nutrition, medical care, physical activity, or other healthy behaviors.

Alpha Shakes™ may require reasonable information to evaluate the request, including photographs, Product packaging, lot or date information, return of unused Products, or other information reasonably necessary to confirm eligibility.
Customers should not discard Product or packaging while a refund request is pending unless instructed by Alpha Shakes™. Failure to provide reasonably requested information or follow reasonable return instructions may delay or prevent processing of the Guarantee.

Although many refunds are processed sooner, customers should allow a reasonable period for processing after returned Products are received.
 
SECTION 58: ABUSE PREVENTION
The 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee exists to provide first-time customers with confidence in trying Alpha Shakes™.

      multiple Accounts associated with substantially similar payment methods;
      promotional abuse;
      fraudulent conduct;

SECTION 60: MODIFICATION OR TERMINATION OF THE GUARANTEE

The 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee is intended to reflect Alpha Shakes™ commitment to customer satisfaction and confidence in our Products.
We ask customers to use this Guarantee in the same spirit in which it is offered.

Where applicable law provides greater protections than those described herein, such law shall control.


PART VII: SUBSCRIPTIONS & AUTOMATIC RENEWAL


SECTION 62: SUBSCRIPTION OVERVIEW
Alpha Shakes™ offers customers the opportunity to purchase certain Products on a recurring subscription basis ("Subscription").
Subscriptions are designed to provide convenience, uninterrupted deliveries, and preferred subscriber pricing.
By enrolling in a Subscription, you agree that your Subscription will automatically renew and that your selected payment method will be charged on a recurring basis until you cancel in accordance with these Terms.
Enrollment in a Subscription is voluntary and may be managed through your customer account.
 
SECTION 63: AUTOMATIC RENEWAL AUTHORIZATION
By purchasing a Subscription, you expressly authorize Alpha Shakes™, Recharge, our payment processors, and our authorized service providers to automatically charge your designated payment method for:
      recurring Product purchases;
      applicable taxes;
      shipping charges;
      and any other amounts disclosed at the time of purchase,
at the frequency selected by you until your Subscription is cancelled.
You acknowledge that this authorization remains in effect until cancelled in accordance with these Terms.


SECTION 64: SUBSCRIPTION FREQUENCY
Unless otherwise specified at the time of purchase, Alpha Shakes™ Subscriptions renew every thirty (30) days.
From time to time, Alpha Shakes™ may offer additional delivery frequencies or scheduling options.
Customers may update their preferred delivery schedule through their Subscription management portal, subject to reasonable processing deadlines established by Alpha Shakes™.
Changes requested after an order has entered processing may apply to the next scheduled renewal.
 
SECTION 65: MANAGING YOUR SUBSCRIPTION
Subject to availability and operational requirements, subscribers may have the ability to:
      skip a shipment;
      pause a Subscription;
      swap available Product flavors or varieties;
      update shipping information;
      update payment methods;
      modify delivery schedules; or
      reactivate a paused Subscription.
Certain features may not be available during promotional offers, limited edition launches, inventory shortages, or other operational circumstances.
Alpha Shakes™ reserves the right to modify available Subscription management features at any time.
 
SECTION 66: CANCELLATION
Subscribers may cancel their Subscription at any time through their online account or by contacting support@alphashakes.com. If a Subscription is created online, Alpha Shakes™ will make an online cancellation method available where required by applicable law.
Cancellation requests must be submitted before the applicable order processing cutoff to prevent the next recurring charge or shipment. If an order has already entered processing, fulfillment, or shipment before a cancellation request is received or processed, that order may continue to be fulfilled and the cancellation will become effective for subsequent renewals.
Cancellation of a Subscription does not automatically entitle a customer to a refund for orders already processed, fulfilled, or shipped, except as expressly provided by the 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee or otherwise required by applicable law.
Alpha Shakes™ will not intentionally make cancellation materially more difficult than enrollment. Customers are responsible for maintaining accurate account and contact information so that Subscription communications and cancellation confirmations can be delivered.
 
SECTION 67: PAYMENT FAILURES
If a recurring payment cannot be successfully processed, Alpha Shakes™ and its payment processors may:
      retry the payment method;
      notify the customer;
      request updated payment information;
      delay shipment;
      temporarily suspend the Subscription; or
      cancel the Subscription.
Alpha Shakes™ is not responsible for delays resulting from expired payment methods, insufficient funds, bank holds, payment processor issues, or other payment authorization failures.
 
SECTION 68: SUBSCRIPTION PRICING
Subscription pricing may differ from one-time purchase pricing. The price, billing frequency, renewal timing, shipping charges, taxes, discounts, and any applicable minimum purchase or commitment terms should be disclosed at checkout or otherwise before enrollment.
Unless otherwise required by applicable law, Alpha Shakes™ reserves the right to modify Subscription pricing, shipping charges, discounts, benefits, or promotional incentives. If a material price change affects an active Subscription, Alpha Shakes™ will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice before the updated pricing becomes effective.
Continued participation in the Subscription following the effective date of a pricing change constitutes acceptance of the updated pricing, except where affirmative consent or a different process is required by applicable law.
 
SECTION 69: PROMOTIONAL SUBSCRIPTIONS
From time to time Alpha Shakes™ may offer introductory pricing, subscriber discounts, gifts, promotional Products, or other incentives.
Unless otherwise specified:
      promotional offers are limited to one per customer;
      promotional offers are limited to one per household;
      promotional offers may not be combined;
      promotional offers have no cash value;
      promotional offers may be modified or discontinued at any time.
Alpha Shakes™ reserves the right to revoke promotional benefits obtained through fraud, abuse, automation, or circumvention of these Terms.
 
SECTION 70: SUBSCRIPTION FRAUD & ABUSE
To preserve fair access and maintain the integrity of our Subscription program, Alpha Shakes™ reserves the right to investigate suspected abuse.
Without limitation, we may suspend or terminate a Subscription if we reasonably determine that a customer has:
      created multiple Accounts to obtain introductory pricing;
      manipulated promotional offers;
      engaged in unauthorized resale activity;
      intentionally circumvented purchase limits;
      initiated repeated abusive chargebacks;
      submitted false information; or
      otherwise attempted to exploit the Subscription program.
We may refuse future Subscription enrollment by customers who engage in fraudulent or abusive conduct.
 
SECTION 71: RECHARGE PLATFORM
Subscription management services may be provided through Recharge or another third-party subscription management provider selected by Alpha Shakes™.
By enrolling in a Subscription, you acknowledge that certain Subscription information may be processed through such third-party providers in accordance with their applicable terms and privacy practices.
Alpha Shakes™ is not responsible for temporary outages, maintenance events, or technical interruptions affecting third-party subscription platforms.
 
SECTION 72: VOLUNTARY PARTICIPATION
Participation in an Alpha Shakes™ Subscription is entirely voluntary.
Customers may continue purchasing Products on a one-time basis without enrolling in a Subscription.
Enrollment in a Subscription is not required to access the Website or purchase Products unless expressly stated for a specific promotional offering.
 
SECTION 73: AUTOMATIC RENEWAL DISCLOSURE
BY ENROLLING IN A SUBSCRIPTION, YOU AGREE THAT:
· YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW UNTIL CANCELLED;
· YOUR SELECTED PAYMENT METHOD WILL BE CHARGED AT THE RECURRING INTERVAL YOU SELECT;
· THE AMOUNT CHARGED MAY INCLUDE THE APPLICABLE PRODUCT PRICE, TAXES, SHIPPING CHARGES, AND ANY OTHER DISCLOSED FEES;
· THE PRICE, BILLING FREQUENCY, CANCELLATION METHOD, AND ANY APPLICABLE ORDER PROCESSING CUTOFF SHOULD BE DISCLOSED AT CHECKOUT OR IN YOUR SUBSCRIPTION ACCOUNT;
· YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS; AND
· CANCELLATION REQUESTS RECEIVED AFTER AN ORDER HAS ENTERED PROCESSING MAY APPLY TO FUTURE RENEWALS RATHER THAN THE ORDER ALREADY BEING PREPARED FOR SHIPMENT.
Nothing contained in this Part limits any rights provided under applicable automatic renewal, subscription, or consumer protection laws. Where applicable law imposes additional notice, consent, acknowledgment, cancellation, renewal, or reminder requirements, Alpha Shakes™ will comply with those requirements to the extent they apply.

      unauthorized access will never occur;
      cyberattacks will never occur;
      malware will never occur;
      security breaches will never occur; or

SECTION 104: FORCE MAJEURE LIABILITY EXCLUSION
Without limiting any other provision of these Terms, Alpha Shakes™ shall not be liable for delays, interruptions, failures, losses, or damages resulting from events beyond our reasonable control, including those described in Section 48 (Force Majeure).

      Website access;
      Product availability;
      fulfillment;
      shipping;
      communications;
      promotions;
      Subscriptions; and
      customer support.
 
SECTION 105: BASIS OF THE BARGAIN
You acknowledge that Alpha Shakes™ has set its prices, offered Products, and entered into these Terms in reliance upon the warranty disclaimers, liability limitations, exclusions, and risk allocations contained herein.
These provisions form an essential basis of the bargain between you and Alpha Shakes™.
If any portion of these limitations is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect to the maximum extent permitted by law.
 
SECTION 106: NON-WAIVABLE RIGHTS
Nothing contained in these Terms shall exclude, restrict, or limit any rights, remedies, warranties, liabilities, or obligations that cannot be excluded, restricted, or limited under applicable law.
Without limiting the foregoing, nothing in these Terms is intended to limit liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, or personal injury caused by Alpha Shakes™ to the extent such liability cannot be limited under applicable law.
Where applicable law prohibits a particular disclaimer, limitation, exclusion, arbitration requirement, venue requirement, indemnity obligation, or damages limitation, that provision shall apply only to the maximum extent permitted by law while all remaining provisions remain enforceable.
 
PART XI: INDEMNIFICATION

 

SECTION 107: YOUR AGREEMENT TO INDEMNIFY
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Alpha Shakes LLC and its affiliates, officers, directors, members, managers, employees, contractors, agents, service providers, licensors, successors, and assigns (collectively, the "Alpha Shakes Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, proceedings, investigations, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements, penalties, fines, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, arising out of or relating to:
· your misuse of the Website or Products;
· your violation of these Terms;
· your violation of any applicable law;
· your User Content;
· your Feedback;
· your participation in any promotion, referral program, affiliate program, ambassador program, or marketing initiative;
· your infringement, misappropriation, or violation of any third-party right;
· your fraudulent, deceptive, abusive, or unlawful conduct; or
· your violation of any representation, warranty, or obligation contained in these Terms.
For clarity, this indemnity is not intended to require an ordinary consumer to indemnify Alpha Shakes™ merely for purchasing or consuming Products in accordance with applicable Product labeling and these Terms.

SECTION 108: USER CONTENT CLAIMS
Without limiting the foregoing, if any claim is asserted against an Alpha Shakes Party arising from User Content submitted by you, including claims involving:
      copyright infringement;
      trademark infringement;
      right of publicity;
      privacy rights;
      defamation;
      false advertising;
      misleading content;
      contractual disputes; or
      other third-party rights,
you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Alpha Shakes Parties from all resulting liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees.
 
SECTION 109: AFFILIATE, REFERRAL & PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITIES
If you participate in any Alpha Shakes™ affiliate, ambassador, referral, creator, influencer, or promotional program, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Alpha Shakes Parties from any claim arising from:
      your advertising activities;
      your marketing content;
      unauthorized claims;
      violations of advertising regulations;
      violations of endorsement disclosure requirements;
      misleading statements;
      intellectual property violations; or
      other conduct related to your participation in such programs.
Nothing contained in these Terms limits any additional obligations imposed under separate affiliate or ambassador agreements.
 
SECTION 110: COOPERATION
If Alpha Shakes™ seeks indemnification under this Part, we may:
      provide notice of the claim;
      require reasonable cooperation;
      request information relevant to the defense of the claim; and
      participate in the defense of the claim through counsel of our choosing.
Your failure to reasonably cooperate may constitute an independent breach of these Terms.
 
SECTION 111: RIGHT TO ASSUME DEFENSE
Alpha Shakes™ reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you.
In such circumstances, you agree to cooperate fully with our defense efforts.
Nothing in this Section relieves you of your indemnification obligations.
 
SECTION 112: NO IMPLIED LIMITATION
The indemnification obligations contained in this Part are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies available to Alpha Shakes™ under these Terms, at law, or in equity.
These obligations shall survive:
      termination of Accounts;
      cancellation of Subscriptions;
      completion of transactions;
      cessation of Website use; and
      termination of these Terms.
 
SECTION 113: LIMITATIONS
Nothing in this Part shall require you to indemnify any Alpha Shakes Party for claims finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator, as applicable, to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or intentional unlawful conduct of that Alpha Shakes Party, except to the extent such limitation is prohibited by applicable law.
To the extent applicable law prohibits any portion of this Part, such portion shall be enforced only to the maximum extent permitted by law.
 
PART XII: BINDING ARBITRATION & CLASS ACTION WAIVER

 

SECTION 114: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY
THIS PART AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IT REQUIRES MOST DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND ALPHA SHAKES™ TO BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT.
THIS PART ALSO CONTAINS A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS, CLASS ARBITRATIONS, MASS ARBITRATIONS, AND REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDINGS TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
Nothing in this Part limits any rights that cannot legally be waived.
 
SECTION 115: GOOD FAITH INFORMAL RESOLUTION
Alpha Shakes™ believes that most disputes can be resolved quickly and fairly without litigation or arbitration.
Accordingly, before initiating arbitration or filing any legal proceeding, the party asserting a dispute agrees to first provide written notice describing:
      the nature of the dispute;
      the factual basis of the claim;
      the requested resolution; and
      supporting information reasonably necessary to evaluate the matter.
The parties agree to make a good faith effort to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice.
Nothing in this Section prevents either party from seeking temporary injunctive relief where necessary to prevent immediate and irreparable harm.
 
SECTION 116: AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE
Except for claims expressly excluded below, any dispute, controversy, claim, or cause of action arising out of or relating to:
      these Terms;
      the Website;
      Products;
      Subscriptions;
      the 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee;
      Educational Content;
      Scientific References;
      marketing communications;
      User Content;
      affiliate programs; or
      any relationship between you and Alpha Shakes™
shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration rather than through a lawsuit in court.
The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to determine:
      the interpretation of this arbitration agreement;
      its enforceability;
      its applicability; and
      any claim that all or part of this arbitration agreement is void or voidable.
 
SECTION 117: CLAIMS NOT SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION
Nothing in this Part prevents either party from:
      bringing an individual action in a court of competent jurisdiction that qualifies for small claims court;
      seeking temporary or preliminary injunctive relief to protect confidential information or intellectual property;
      pursuing claims that applicable law expressly prohibits from mandatory arbitration.
 
SECTION 118: INDIVIDUAL PROCEEDINGS ONLY
YOU AND ALPHA SHAKES™ AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES SHALL BE RESOLVED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
NEITHER PARTY SHALL PARTICIPATE AS:
      A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE;
      A CLASS MEMBER;
      A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL;
      A REPRESENTATIVE PLAINTIFF; OR
      A REPRESENTATIVE PARTICIPANT
IN ANY CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, MASS ARBITRATION, CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OR AWARD RELIEF TO ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE INDIVIDUAL PARTIES BEFORE THE ARBITRATOR.
 
SECTION 119: MASS ARBITRATION AND BELLWETHER PROCEDURES
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, disputes must proceed on an individual basis only, and no arbitration may proceed as a class arbitration, collective arbitration, consolidated arbitration, mass arbitration, representative proceeding, private attorney general action, or any other proceeding in which one person seeks relief on behalf of another person or group of persons.
If twenty-five (25) or more similar arbitration demands are asserted against Alpha Shakes™ by or with the assistance, coordination, or representation of the same law firm, group of law firms, organization, platform, claim aggregator, or coordinated group of claimants, the parties agree that those demands shall be treated as “Coordinated Demands” and shall be subject to the procedures in this Section.
The parties agree that Coordinated Demands shall proceed in staged bellwether proceedings. Unless the parties agree otherwise in writing, ten (10) individual arbitration demands shall proceed first as bellwether arbitrations. Counsel for the claimants shall select five (5) bellwether demands, and Alpha Shakes™ shall select five (5) bellwether demands. Only those bellwether arbitrations shall proceed initially. All other Coordinated Demands shall be held in abeyance and shall not be filed, administered, advanced, or subject to arbitration fees while the bellwether arbitrations proceed, except to the extent required by applicable law or the applicable arbitration administrator.
The statutes of limitation, contractual limitations periods, filing deadlines, and other time-based defenses applicable to the non-bellwether Coordinated Demands shall be tolled while those demands are held in abeyance under this Section. No claimant shall be prejudiced solely because that claimant’s demand is held in abeyance pursuant to this bellwether procedure.
After the bellwether arbitrations are completed, the parties shall participate in a single mediation before a mutually agreed mediator for a period of at least sixty (60) days, unless the parties agree in writing to extend or shorten that period. The mediation may be conducted remotely unless the parties agree otherwise.
If the remaining Coordinated Demands are not resolved through the bellwether process and mediation, then the remaining demands shall proceed in additional staged batches of up to fifty (50) individual arbitrations at a time, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing or the arbitration administrator or a court of competent jurisdiction requires a different procedure. Each demand shall remain subject to the individual arbitration requirement, class action waiver, representative action waiver, and other limitations set forth in these Terms.
Bellwether outcomes shall not be binding precedent in any later arbitration, court proceeding, or other dispute involving a different claimant, except to the extent binding on the parties to the specific bellwether arbitration. However, the parties agree that the bellwether process is intended to promote efficient, fair, and informed resolution of Coordinated Demands.
If any portion of this Section is determined to be unenforceable, that portion shall be severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining portions shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. If a court or arbitration administrator determines that the bellwether or staging procedures in this Section cannot be enforced as to particular claims, then those claims shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction rather than in a class, collective, consolidated, representative, or mass arbitration, except where prohibited by applicable law.
 
SECTION 120: ARBITRATION PROCEDURE
Unless otherwise required by applicable law or mutually agreed by the parties, arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. If AAA is unavailable or unwilling to administer the arbitration, the parties shall mutually agree on an alternative arbitration administrator. If the parties cannot agree, a court of competent jurisdiction may appoint an arbitration administrator or arbitrator.
Arbitration may occur remotely by video conference, telephone, written submission, or another mutually convenient method. Where required by applicable law or the applicable arbitration rules, a consumer may choose to participate in arbitration from the county or judicial district in which the consumer resides.
The arbitrator shall apply applicable law and these Terms, may award the same remedies available in an individual court proceeding, and shall issue a written decision explaining the outcome. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
Arbitration fees and costs shall be allocated in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules, except that Alpha Shakes™ will pay any arbitration fees or costs that Alpha Shakes™ is required to pay for this arbitration agreement to be enforceable under applicable law.

SECTION 121: OPTIONAL ARBITRATION OPT-OUT
You may opt out of the arbitration agreement in this Part by emailing support@alphashakes.com within thirty (30) days after the earliest of: (a) your first purchase of a Product; (b) your first enrollment in a Subscription; or (c) your first creation of an Account.
Your opt-out email must include your name, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. Opting out of arbitration will not affect any other provision of these Terms, including any jury trial waiver or class action waiver to the extent enforceable under applicable law.

SECTION 122: WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND ALPHA SHAKES™ KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY FOR ANY DISPUTE SUBJECT TO THESE TERMS.
 
SECTION 123: TIME LIMITATION
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Website, Products, Subscriptions, or any relationship with Alpha Shakes™ must be commenced within one (1) year after the events giving rise to the claim first occurred or reasonably should have been discovered.
Claims filed after that period are permanently barred unless a longer limitation period is required by applicable law.
 
SECTION 124: SEVERABILITY OF ARBITRATION PROVISIONS
If any provision of this Part is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be severed and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect to the maximum extent permitted by law.
However, if the class action waiver contained in Section 118 is determined to be unenforceable as to a particular claim, then that claim shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction rather than arbitration.
