Warranty Disclaimers and liability limitations. While there are significant points throughout these Terms, please note Sections 16 and 17 contain important limitations on our liability.

The following terms of use (the "Shop Terms") contain the terms and conditions applicable to you and your access to and use of this website, shop.mlb.com or MLBshop.com, including the mobile version and any successor site(s), regardless of how accessed (collectively, the "MLB Shop Website"). The MLB Shop Website is operated by Fanatics Retail Group North, LLC ("Fanatics"), a Delaware corporation, and/or one of its subsidiaries or affiliates (the "Fanatics Entities"), on behalf of MLB Advanced Media, L.P. and/or its affiliated entities ("Partner Entities"), including the Office of the Commissioner of Baseball ("BOC"), its Bureaus, Committees, Subcommittees and Councils, the Major League Baseball Clubs ("Clubs"), Major League Baseball Properties, Inc., The MLB Network, LLC, each of their subsidiaries or affiliated entities, any entity which, now or in the future, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Clubs or the BOC and the owners, general and limited partners, shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents of the above entities. When used herein, the terms "we," "us" or "our" include Fanatics, the Fanatics Entities and the Partner Entities. 

Your use of the MLB Shop Website (including any feature, content or application offered by the MLB Shop Website) is at all times subject to these Shop Terms, as the same may be modified by us, and all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Please read these Shop Terms carefully. If you are dissatisfied with these Shop Terms, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue using the MLB Shop Website.

  1. Acceptance of Shop Terms. By accessing AND USING THE MLB Shop Website, you agree that you have read, understand and agree to be legally bound by these SHOP TERMS. If you do not agree to be bound by these Shop Terms, YOU MAY not access or use the MLB Shop Website. These Shop Terms may be changed, modified or altered by us in our sole discretion at any time without prior notice. If we materially change the Shop Terms, we will notify you by posting updated Shop Terms on the MLB Shop Website or by sending an email to the email address specified in your account, if any, prior to or upon the change(s) becoming effective. Accordingly, when you access or use the MLB Shop Website, you should check the date of the Shop Terms and be aware of any changes since the last version. Your continued use of the MLB Shop Website following the posting of any changes to these Shop Terms means that you accept such changes. Your access to and use of the MLB Shop Website will be governed by the Shop Terms in effect at the time of such access or use.
  2. Other Sources of Terms and Conditions; Promotions and Coupons. Certain provisions of the Shop Terms may be superseded by expressly designated legal notices, rules or other terms located on particular pages of the MLB ShopWebsite, and, additionally, in order to participate in or use certain MLB Shop Website services, promotions, discounts or coupons that may be available from time to time ("Offers"), you may be required to agree to additional or different terms and conditions ("Offer Terms"). Some Offers also may be subject to additional requirements or restrictions imposed by us or participating third parties, such as the vendors or other merchants that issued, sponsored, or are associated with the Offer or the exclusion of merchandise from an Offer which shall also be part of the Offer Terms. Certain merchandise, shipping methods, costs or membership programs, and/or delivery times may be modified or not available in connection with an Offer. Your redemption of the Offer or use of Offer pages constitutes your unconditional acceptance of the Offer Terms. If there is a conflict between these Shop Terms and any Offer Terms, the Offer Terms shall control and the non-conflicting provisions in these Shop Terms will continue to apply. For example, if you seek to redeem a coupon code on the MLB Shop Website, your redemption of the coupon code is subject to the specific Offer Terms applicable to that code and to the non-conflicting provisions of these Shop Terms. For the sake of clarity, silence with respect to a particular term in either these Shop Terms or any Offer Terms does not constitute a conflict.
    If an Offer does not contain Offer Terms, then only these Shop Terms apply. Under these Shop Terms, unless otherwise prohibited by law, any Offer: (a) is valid only at the website identified in the Offer and at no other store; (b) applies to in-stock merchandise only and not to gift cards or services; (c) is not valid for cash or cash equivalents; (d) is limited to one Offer per person, household, or address; (e) must be entered at checkout and/or in your account to be redeemed; (f) may not be combined with any other coupons or offers; (g) may only be used once; (h) expires on the later of one year from the date of issue or the date required by applicable law, and (i) cannot be reproduced, modified, sold or traded or used to pay any tax, such as sales tax, shipping, handling or any value added service. In addition, some Offers may be in the form of a voucher. If you purchase a voucher with a promotional value beyond the amount paid, you may redeem the voucher for the promotional value until the expiration date, or for the amount paid after the end of the applicable promotional period. We reserve the right to limit, change, or cancel any Offer or associated order, without prior notice, even after you have attempted to redeem the Offer or placed your associated order. By using an Offer, you indicate your acceptance of all applicable terms and conditions, including these Shop Terms and the Offer Terms, if any.

  5. FanCash. FanCash is a loyalty discount redeemable only toward future purchases on websites then offering FanCash or, at our discretion, certain other websites operated by us or one of our affiliates.

Unless required by law, FanCash is not redeemable for cash, and cannot be transferred, sold or distributed to others and cannot be applied to shipping, expenses or sales taxes.

    Except where prohibited by law, as a condition of using the MLB Shop Website, you and we agree that any and all disputes, claims and causes of action (collectively, "Claims") arising out of or connected with the MLB Shop Website (except for small claims court Claims, if applicable) shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), including the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, for full and final settlement of such Claim, applying the Federal Arbitration Act and other federal arbitration laws. You and we also agree that (a) any Claims will be resolved individually and not through any class action; (b) if a Claim proceeds in court anyway, we both waive any right to a jury trial; and (c) either you or we may seek a court injunction regarding intellectual property infringement. Arbitration does not involve a judge or jury. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO SUE OR GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THESE SHOP TERMS. YOU AND WE ALSO AGREE THAT (I) ANY CLAIMS WILL BE RESOLVED INDIVIDUALLY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, MEMBER OF OTHERWISE ON BEHALF OF OTHERS IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING AND NOT THROUGH ANY CLASS ACTION; (II) IF A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT ANYWAY, WE BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL; AND (III) EITHER YOU OR WE MAY SEEK A COURT INJUNCTION REGARDING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT. Although court review of an arbitration award may be limited, an arbitrator is empowered to award the same damages and relief as a court, including injunctive relief or statutory damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek temporary or emergency equitable relief to enforce its rights in any court of competent jurisdiction. You may seek arbitration of a Claim by contacting our registered agent at: Corporation Service Company, 1201 Hays Street, Tallahassee, FL 32301. The arbitration may be conducted via telephone, written submissions or in person at a mutually agreed location. Payment of all filing, administration, arbitrator and/or mediator fees ("Fees")will be governed by AAA’s rules. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org, or call 800-778-7879 (toll-free) for instructions on how to obtain a copy. Unless the AAA arbitrator determines that your Claim was frivolous, we will (i) reimburse you for the Fees paid by you, and (ii) not seek reimbursement from you for our attorneys’ fees and costs associated with the arbitration. You and we further agree that an award and any judgment confirming it only applies to the arbitration in which it was awarded and cannot be used in any other proceeding except to enforce the award itself and any post-arbitration action seeking to enforce an arbitration award or action seeking equitable or injunctive relief shall be brought exclusively in the courts of the State of Delaware, or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. For any Claims that are not subject to arbitration, if any: (y) the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for proceedings shall be the courts of competent jurisdiction sitting within the State of Delaware (the "Forum"), and the parties hereby waive any argument that any such court does not have personal jurisdiction or that the Forum is not appropriate or convenient; and (z) you and we waive any and all rights to trial by jury. You agree that you must assert all Claims against us within one (1) year from the date of the applicable purchase or, if no purchase was made, from the date the Claim first accrued.
  22. Miscellaneous. We may give you notice of certain events from time to time and may be required by state or federal law to notify you of certain events. You hereby acknowledge and consent that such notices will be effective upon our posting them on the MLB Shop Website or (if we choose to do so in our sole discretion) delivering them to you through email if you have provided us with your accurate email address. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Shop Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Shop Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. These Shop Terms and your account on the MLB Shop Website are personal to you and may not be transferred or assigned.

    Our performance under these Shop Terms is subject to existing laws and legal process, and nothing contained in these Shop Terms is in derogation of our right to comply with governmental, court and law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your use of the MLB Shop Website or information provided to or gathered by us with respect to such use. If any part of these Shop Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of these Shop Terms shall continue to be fully in effect, valid, binding and enforceable. For the avoidance of doubt, these Shop Terms apply solely to the extent permitted by law.

    These Shop Terms, together with any additional terms and conditions or policies referred to and incorporated herein (including the MLB Shop Privacy Policy and/or additional terms applicable to various parts of the MLB Shop Website), constitute the entire understanding between you and us.
