At VELA NOVA, your satisfaction is our top priority, and we hope to resolve any concerns that may arise fairly and transparently. In the rare event that an issue can't be resolved directly with us, we have a clear process in place:
Step 1: Mediation: If something goes wrong, we encourage you to contact us first. We’re confident that most matters can be settled quickly and amicably. Should a formal dispute arise, we suggest mediation as the first step. Mediation is a collaborative process where both parties work together with a neutral third party to find a resolution.
Step 2: Arbitration: If mediation does not resolve the dispute, we’ll proceed with arbitration in accordance with the rules of JAMS in Phoenix, Arizona. Both parties will be responsible for their own legal costs.
Governing Law: Depending on your location and transaction, this agreement is governed by the laws of Switzerland and the State of Arizona.
By using our Site and engaging with VELA NOVA, you agree to this dispute resolution process.
