- Agreement. These terms and conditions of sale ("Terms") apply to the offer, purchase and sale of products and services through the Sunhub website (www.Sunhub.com) (“Services”). The Services are part of an online marketplace that assists customers with gathering photovoltaic-related information and submitting legitimate orders or otherwise purchasing photovoltaic products and services from suppliers (“Seller”). Sunhub LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“we”, “us”, “our”, or “Sunhub”), is not a Seller of any of the products or services offered through the Services except for those products or services that clearly identify Sunhub as the Seller. All other products and services offered through the Services are offered and sold by third-party suppliers (“Third-Party Sellers”) and may be subject to terms and conditions that are in addition to, or different from, these Terms (“Third-Party Seller Terms”). The Seller of a good or service through the Services is the person or business identified as the Seller at the time you placed your order, which may be Sunhub or a Third-party Seller.
These Terms are subject to change by us, without prior written notice at any time, in our sole discretion. Any changes to the Terms will be in effect as of the "Last Updated Date" referenced on the Services. Your continued use of the Services after the "Last Updated Date" will constitute your acceptance of and agreement to such changes. You should review these Terms prior to conducting any transaction through the Services. Before placing an order through the Services, you should also carefully review our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, both of which govern your use of the Services and are incorporated into these Terms (Section 15 below). You should also carefully read any Third-Party Seller Terms for a particular product prior to placing an order through the Services.

Each Third-Party Seller may have its own sales contract with terms and provisions that are different from these Terms (“Third-Party Seller Terms”). While we encourage Third-Party Seller’s to use these Terms for transactions through the Services, it is possible that the Third-Party Seller Terms will differ significantly from these Terms.

- Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.
- YOU AND SUNHUB (AND THE SELLER) ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.
ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND US ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THROUGH THE SERVICES, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
- For individual consumers, the arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this Section 13. For all other consumers, the arbitration will be administered by the AAA under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures. (The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.
The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the agreement is void, voidable, or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
For individual consumers, if you prevail on any claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys' fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to you under the standards for fee shifting provided by law.
- You may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide us and the Seller with written notice of your intention do so within 60 days of your purchase. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.
- You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER YOU NOR THE SELLER WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS OR SELLER IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.
If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
- Assignment. You will not assign any of your rights or delegate any of your obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 14 is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves you of any of your obligations under these Terms.
- No Waivers. The failure by us to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Seller.
- No Third-Party Beneficiaries. These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than you and the Seller.
- Notices.

Notices provided by registered or certified mail will be effective three business days after they are sent.
- Severability. If any provision of these Terms is invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severed from these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms.
