5. PRODUCT IMAGES & FABRIC COLOR VARIATION
Please note that photos, pictures, and images on our Web Site are for illustrative purposes only and may vary depending upon the computer monitor from which they are viewed. For an accurate description of any Product and details of what is included with the Product, please read the Product description carefully.
We also highly encourage our customers to order a Fabric Sample for an actual example of a fabric material’s color and composition before making a Product purchase. SHADE HAVENS® LLC Products use the highest quality indoor-outdoor fabrics available internationally and where fabric color consistency is a hallmark of production. However, manufacture of any individual fabric may result in a “dye lot” variance of that fabric’s color.
Individual Privacy Shades will be made with Fabric Panels comprised of the same “dye lot.” However, there may be “dye lot” variance from one individual Privacy Shade to another Privacy Shade even though both are made using identical Fabric Panels.
And, the Product that you order, i.e., Privacy Shade with Fabric Panels, additional Fabric Panels, and Indoor-Outdoor Pillow fabric may have a sight “dye lot” variance from the Fabric Sample you received and the Product you purchase.
Likewise, additional Fabric Panels and Indoor-Outdoor Pillow fabrics may have a sight “dye lot” variance from the same previously purchased, Privacy Shade’s Fabric Panels and Indoor-Outdoor Pillow fabric.
When a single order is placed at one time for multiple Privacy Shades with Fabric panels, multiple additional Fabric Panels, or multiple Indoor-Outdoor Pillows using the same fabric pattern, we will either use the same fabric “dye lot” on all said Shade Panels, additional Fabric Panels and Pillows, or contact you with a delayed delivery date to allow for manufacture lead time in producing sufficient quantity of same “dye lot” fabric to complete your order.
SHADE HAVENS® LLC warranty does not apply to “dye lot” variance and exact color matching on separately ordered Privacy Shades, replacement Fabric Panels, and pillow fabrics. Exact color matching, in these circumstances, cannot be assured. SHADE HAVENS® LLC is also not responsible for a delay in manufacturer lead time in supplying sufficient fabric quantity for applicable same dye lot usage.
6. PRIVACY SHADE PANEL FABRIC IMPERFECTIONS
Again, SHADE HAVENS® LLC Privacy Shades use the highest quality indoor-outdoor vinyl coated polyester and acrylic fabrics available internationally. Privacy Shade Panel Fabrics, both VINYL and ACRYLIC will naturally “drape” as they are suspended from their Privacy Shade support bars. A “waviness” or draping of fabric may be more or less visible depending upon the type and pattern of fabric. This effect does not require a change of fabric. This draping is inherent in the nature of the fabric and has no effect on fabric performance.
Also, a slight embossing, some veining, small folds along the stitching or in the center of the ACRYLIC fabrics or possibly some overlapping could appear. These hardly perceptible irregularities are inherent in the nature of acrylic fiber and have no effect on the performance of your canvas.
SHADE HAVENS® LLC can in no way be held responsible for these slight imperfections, including but not limited to:
• “Waviness”appearing on fabric panels, or produced subsequent to handling during sewing and assembly of vinyl coated polyester and acrylic fabrics and that may present “curvature” or draping visible against the sunlight and due to an optical effect (differences in the refraction of light).b Waviness” or fabric draping is particularly visible on solid-color vinyl-coated polyester fabrics inspected against the, or viewed in, certain light.
• Waffle building or veining. subsequent to handling during sewing and assembly, of acrylic fabrics treated with resins containing fluoride that may present “veining”visible against the sunlight and due to an optical effect (differences in the refraction of light)
• When rolling the canvas, folds that may be produced in the center or along the stitching.
• Veining or white traces. Subsequent to handling, small white traces may appear on acrylic fabrics treated with resins containing fluoride. They are particularly visible on light-colored canvases inspected against the light.
These small irregularities do not require a change of fabric. On the other hand, if you notice a problem concerning your vinyl coated polyester with its 3-year warranty, or have the slightest problem concerning the major qualities of your acrylic canvas with its 10-year color guarantee - color hold, rotproof nature, strength: or, we invite you to let us know.
SHADE HAVENS® LLC warranty does not apply to fabric “waviness” or draping folds that may be appear on the fabric panels or produced as a result of sewing and/or assembly.
SHADE HAVENS® LLC warranty does not apply to fabric Waffle building or veining, folds that may be produced in the center or along the stitching or Veining of white traces.

While our Privacy Shades are made to a very high standard, they are designed for normal weather conditions. You should not take your Privacy Shade out in wind or lightening.

15. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT & WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS
All disputes or claims arising under or relating in any way to your use of this Web Site or its mobile applications, to any Products or services sold or distributed by SHADE HAVENS® LLC or otherwise through this Web Site or its mobile applications are to be settled by binding arbitration in the county of Mecosta, Michigan, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration you and SHADE HAVENS® LLC hereby each waives any right to a jury trial of any claim. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or SHADE HAVENS® LLC from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and SHADE HAVENS® LLC also have the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these TERMS of USE, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these TERMS of USE.
The arbitration shall be conducted on a confidential basis pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The arbitrator will either be a retired judge or attorney licensed to practice in the State of Michigan and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within 7 days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with AAA rules. The parties reserve the right to object to any individual who shall be employed by or affiliated with a competing organization or entity. The arbitrator shall include a written record of the arbitration hearing.
Both you and SHADE HAVENS® LLC agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. The arbitrator can decide only your and SHADE HAVENS® LLC’s individual claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.
Any decision or award as a result of any such arbitration proceeding shall be in writing and shall provide an explanation for all conclusions of law and fact and shall include the assessment of costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitration among the parties in amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.
The arbitrator’s decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator will not, however, have the power to award punitive or exemplary damages, the right to which each party hereby waives, and the arbitrator will apply applicable law and the provisions of these TERMS of USE and the failure to do so will be deemed an excess of arbitral authority and grounds for judicial review.
If any provision of the agreement to arbitrate in this section is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced (but in no case will there be a class, representative or private attorney general arbitration).
Regardless of any statue or law to the contrary, notice on any claim arising from or related to these TERMS of USE must be made within one (1) year after such claim arose or be forever barred. For purposes of this section, these TERMS of USE and related transactions will be subject to and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16 (FAA).
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 or representative claim, the right to engage in discovery except as provided in AAA rules, and the right to certain remedies and forms of relief. Other rights that you or SHADE HAVENS® LLC would have in court also may not be available in arbitration.
16. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
Any action relating to the use of this Web Site, mobile applications, or any transaction with SHADE HAVENS® LLC must be brought in the state or federal courts located in the County of Mecosta, Michigan. You consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of such actions.
