Earning Points and Benefits as a VIP Rewards Member (“Member”)

The VIP Rewards Program (“VIP Program”) is a free customer loyalty program that allows participants to earn points (“Points”) for every dollar spent on eligible product purchases (as defined below) and become eligible for other rewards (the “Rewards”), including an annual reward if the Member spends $150 or more, cumulatively and exclusive of taxes, on eligible product purchases within the current or previous calendar year. Points accrue when a Member’s unique VIP Program Member Number is provided at the time of purchase for online eligible product purchases. Under the VIP Program, “Eligible Product Purchases” means purchases of Sienna and Slate products such as candles, accessories, body care, and care boxes, subject to any exclusions applicable at the time of sale or as stated herein. Gift card purchases, coaching, consulting, and speaking services are excluded. Members also have the ability to periodically earn bonus points. Bonus Points help a Member earn Rewards faster. Sienna and Slate has the sole right to make the final decision on whether a purchase qualifies for Points (or an action qualifies for bonus points) and where to issue any Points or Rewards under the VIP Program.

The VIP Program is free to enroll. Upon enrollment in the VIP Program. As a Member, the Member earns one (.05) Point for every $1.00 spent on Eligible Product Purchases. If a Member has made a prior purchase of $20.00 or greater using their VIP Member Account, the Member will receive a birthday offer each birthday, which can be used online. Birthday offers are valid for the birth month of the Member. Members also receive exclusive personal benefits through the program. The foregoing benefits are collectively referred to as the “Member Benefits.”

Points will typically post to Member’s Account within 48 hours from the purchase or date of shipment for online orders. No adjustments to Member’s Account will be made after 60 days from the actual purchase date.

Point calculations are based upon dollars spent at checkout on Eligible Product Purchases less any dollars spent on sales tax, shipping charges, delivery charges, restocking fees, rebates applied at the time of purchase, the dollar amount of available mail-in rebates at the time of purchase of any product or service, the dollar amount of the purchase of Gift Cards and eGift Cards, and the dollar amount of any Gift Card offer with purchase or other excluded charges.

Members do not earn Points for the amount of any Reward redeemed or discounts applied to an Eligible Product Purchase. When Members return products, Points previously posted to the Member’s Account for that purchase will be deducted from the Member’s Account. Other exclusions may apply. Points apply only to one VIP Program Member Number in connection with any purchase. Points and Rewards have no cash value and are nontransferable except as specifically permitted in connection with certain promotions. Points may not be combined among VIP Members or conveyed by any means to anyone, including through a Member’s estate, and may not pass to Members’ successors and assigns. Points do not constitute property of the Member. Sienna and Slate may revoke some or all Points and Rewards if it is determined, in our sole discretion, that a Member received Points and Rewards due to an error, through fraud, abuse, or deception, or in any manner not authorized or intended by Sienna and Slate.

We are not responsible for communications, including rewards, lost due to communication issues, such as changes in address or other contact information or technical issues or malfunctions. Points that remain on the Member’s account two (2) years from the date earned will be forfeited. If the VIP Program is terminated or the Member’s account is closed, any remaining earned Points will be forfeited. Rewards are for one-time use only. In the event that a Member returns merchandise that was partially or wholly paid for with a Reward(s), the Reward(s) used in connection with such purchase shall not be reissued, and no Points representing such Reward(s) shall be reissued to such Member’s Account.

  • BINDING ARBITRATION WITH CLASS ACTION WAIVER

    • Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution Process.
    • There might be an occasion in which a Dispute (as defined below) arises between you and Sienna and Slate. Should such a situation arise, Sienna and Slate is committed to working with you to resolve the Dispute. Therefore, for any Dispute that arises between you and Sienna and Slate, both parties agree that they will first make a good faith effort to resolve it informally before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding as set forth below.
    • This informal dispute resolution process is a condition precedent and prerequisite to commencing arbitration or a proceeding in small claims court.
    • This process requires that one party send a written description of the Dispute, including the nature of the claim and the nature and basis of the specific relief sought, to the other party. For any Dispute you initiate, you agree to send this written information about the Dispute along with your contact information sufficient for Sienna and Slate to identify your transaction, account, or other relevant information with Sienna and Slate to the attention of our Legal Department at hello@siennandslate.com or via certified mail to 4115 Cambry Park Katy, TX 77450, Attention: Sienna and Slate Customer Service. The time period referenced below begins to run upon receipt of this written description.
    • You and Sienna and Slate then agree to negotiate in good faith about the Dispute, including through an informal and individualized telephonic dispute resolution conference between you and Sienna and Slate. If either party to the Dispute is represented by counsel, that party’s counsel may participate, but the party also must personally appear at and participate in the conference. This process should lead to resolution of the Dispute, but if it is not resolved within sixty (60) days after receipt of the written description detailed above, you and Sienna and Slate agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.
    • The parties agree that any relevant limitations period and filing fee or other deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in this informal dispute resolution process.
    • Arbitration. Any Dispute between you and Sienna and Slate that cannot be resolved informally as detailed above shall be resolved through individual arbitration or in small claims court.
    • The term “Dispute” shall be interpreted as broadly as permitted under the law and shall cover any claim or controversy, related to us or our relationship including but not limited to, any and all: (1) claims for relief and theories of liability, whether based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation, negligence, statute, regulation, ordinance, or otherwise; (2) claims that arose before these or any prior Terms and Conditions; (3) claims that arise after the termination of these Terms and Conditions; and (4) claims that are the subject of purported class action litigation. Notwithstanding the forgoing: (a) either you or Sienna and Slate may elect to have a Dispute heard (1) in small claims court on an individual basis if the amount in controversy is properly within the jurisdiction of an appropriate small claims court or (2) in a court of competent jurisdiction to seek to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights; and (b) SIENNA AND SLATE may elect to have a Dispute heard in a court of competent jurisdiction if the Dispute is related to suspected violations of the VIP Program.
    • The party initiating the arbitration proceeding may open a case with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) by visiting its website (www.adr.org) or calling its toll-free number (1-800-778-7879). You may deliver any required or desired notice to us by mail to Sienna and Slate, 4115 Cambry Park, Katy, TX 77450
    • This arbitration provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Arbitrations shall be administered by the AAA pursuant to its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) as modified by the version of this Arbitration Provision that is in effect when you notify us about your Dispute. You can obtain the AAA Rules from the AAA by visiting its website (www.adr.org) or calling its toll-free number (1-800-778-7879). If there is a conflict between this arbitration provision and the AAA rules, this arbitration provision shall govern. If the AAA is unable to administer a proceeding under this arbitration provision as written, the parties shall agree on a substitute arbitration organization. If the parties cannot agree, the parties shall mutually petition a court of appropriate jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration organization that will administer a proceeding under this arbitration provision as written applying the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. A single arbitrator will resolve the Dispute. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any arbitration hearing will take place at a location convenient to you. The arbitrator will honor claims of privilege recognized by law and will take reasonable steps to protect confidential or proprietary information. The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision that explains the arbitrator’s essential findings and conclusions. The arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties only if necessary for purposes of enforcing the arbitrator’s award. An arbitrator’s award that has been fully satisfied shall not be entered in any court. You agree to appear in an initial conference with the arbitrator and at any hearing, along with your counsel if you are represented.
    • Payment of filing and other fees shall be governed by the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules. For purposes of determining whether a claim or counterclaim was filed for purposes of harassment or is patently frivolous, the arbitrator may consider, without limitation, whether a party had previously offered full relief to the other party, including, but not limited to, a full refund of the sum paid for items purchased or whether the proceeding is part of multiple case filings.
    • THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS ACTION, JOINT OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR ON BASES INVOLVING CLAIMS BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC (SUCH AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL), OTHER SIENNA AND SLATE CUSTOMERS, OR OTHER PERSONS. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF FOR OR AGAINST ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND COLLECTIVE RELIEF PARAGRAPH IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CANNOT BE SEVERED FROM IT. THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION ARE NOT ESSENTIAL PARTS OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CAN BE SEVERED FROM IT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF A COURT DETERMINES THAT PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF MAY NOT BE WAIVED AND ALL APPEALS FROM THAT DECISION HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED, THEN THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE AND ANY CLAIM FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF SHALL BE STAYED PENDING ARBITRATION OF THE REMAINING CLAIMS.
    • If for any reason a claim may proceed in court rather than in arbitration, the parties waive any right to a jury trial, unless such waiver is unenforceable. This means that any claim would be decided by a judge, not a jury.
    • This arbitration provision shall survive any termination of these Terms and Conditions or the VIP Program. Any amendments to this arbitration provision shall be prospective only and shall not affect any pending claim or arbitration proceeding.

    Applicable Law

    The law applicable to the interpretation and construction of these Terms and Conditions in any arbitration shall be the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal laws and the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. If any Dispute is found not to be arbitrable, then the ordinary choice of law rules will apply in any court proceeding in which the matter is adjudicated.
