4.1. Accumulating ALDO Crew Credit
When you provide the email address or telephone number associated with your ALDO Crew Account upon making a purchase in at any ALDO store located in Canada or online at aldoshoes.com/ca, you earn ALDO Crew Credit corresponding to the eligible purchase amount ("ALDO Crew Credits"). The eligible purchase amount corresponds to the transaction total for merchandise after any discounts and does NOT include taxes, shipping or the purchase of ALDO gift cards.
4.2. Gift card
For greater clarity, purchases of ALDO gift cards do NOT qualify as an eligible purchase amount, but members may earn ALDO Crew Credit when the ALDO gift card is used for the purchase of merchandise. ALDO Crew Credits are awarded to the customer who uses the gift card as tender.
4.3. Credit to your Account
A transaction may earn ALDO Crew Credits for only one (1) ALDO Crew Account. ALDO Crew Credits will be provided for transactions completed up to 10 days prior to your completed enrollment date, provided that the email address given for the transaction was the same as the one provided on the ALDO Crew enrollment form. For returns, ALDO Crew Credit earned on a purchase will be removed from the member’s account for the same amount.
ALDO will use all reasonable efforts to credit a member’s ALDO Crew Account for purchases with ALDO Crew Credits on a timely basis. If ALDO Crew Credits are not issued for an eligible transaction, you may request the missing ALDO Crew Credits up to 90 days after the original transaction by calling us at 1-800-326-2536 or writing to us on www.aldoshoes.com/ca/en/customer-service/contact-us/email-us .

9. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
IF YOU ARE RESIDING IN THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC OR IN THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO OR ANY OTHER PROVINCE OR TERRITORY WHERE THIS SECTION 10 MAY NOT BE VALID BY VIRTUE OF LOCAL CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS, THEN THIS SECTION 10 DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU AND YOU MAINTAIN YOUR RECOURSES PROVIDED BY LAW. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS ENTIRE SECTION CAREFULLY. THIS SECTION PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY. THE LAWS OF YOUR PROVINCE OR TERRITORY MAY LIMIT THE ENFORCEABILITY OF MANDATORY ARBITRATION CLAUSES IN THE CONTEXT OF CERTAIN AGREEMENTS WITH CONSUMERS.
Binding Arbitration
Any dispute, difference, controversy or claim between us or by either of us against the other or the employees, agents, mandataries, officers, directors, successors, assigns or affiliates of the other, arising out of, relating to, or having any connection with, the present Agreement (whether contractual or extra-contractual, in contract or tort, pursuant to statute or regulation, or otherwise, and whether pre-existing, present or future), including any question regarding its negotiation, formation, existence, validity, performance, effects, interpretation, breach, resolution or annulment and further including the applicability or scope of this arbitration clause (including schedule A below) (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Claims" and each, individually, as a "Claim") shall be referred to and finally resolved by binding arbitration, to the exclusion of courts of law, in accordance with the arbitration rules set out in schedule A below, which schedule is incorporated into and forms an integral part of this Agreement. However, before you submit a Claim for arbitration, you must first contact our customer service
representatives at 1--800-326-2536, and give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute. Similarly, before ALDO takes a dispute to arbitration, we must first attempt to resolve it by contacting you. If the dispute cannot be satisfactorily resolved within sixty (60) days from the date you or ALDO is notified by the other of a dispute, then either party may then initiate the arbitration process as
provided in schedule A below.
For greater certainty, no recourse may be made by either party to any court or tribunal, whether federal or provincial, in respect of any matter whatsoever relating to this Agreement including, without limitation, any Claim, any arbitration initiated to resolve a Claim, and any arbitration award made in relation to a Claim, except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or by law. Any award rendered pursuant to the arbitration shall be final and binding on each of the parties and no appeal shall lie from such award. Such award may be rendered enforceable and executory by any court having jurisdiction over the person or the property of the person against whom enforcement of the award is sought.
NO CLAIM MAY BE JOINED WITH ANOTHER LAWSUIT, OR IN AN ARBITRATION WITH A DISPUTE OF ANY OTHER PERSON, OR RESOLVED ON A CLASS-WIDE BASIS. THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM THAT IS ARBITRATED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT BE CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRAL PROCEEDING FOR ANY REASON. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD DAMAGES THAT ARE BARRED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND MAY NOT AWARD EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR ATTORNEYS' FEES. YOU AND ALDO BOTH WAIVE ANY CLAIMS FOR AN
AWARD OF DAMAGES THAT ARE EXCLUDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
Injunctive Relief and Provisional Relief
Notwithstanding the provisions in this Section 10, schedule A or any other provision of this Agreement, ALDO shall have the right to seek and obtain any injunctive, provisional or interim relief from any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its trade-mark or other intellectual property rights or confidential information or to preserve the status quo pending arbitration.
10. HEADINGS
The headings are inserted for convenience of reference only and do not affect the construction or interpretation of the Program Terms.
11. NO ASSIGNMENT
You may not assign your rights or obligations under the Program and/or the Program Terms without the express written consent of ALDO.
12. ENUREMENT
These Program Terms shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
13. SEVERABILITY
If any part of the Program Terms is found to be void or unenforceable under applicable law, all other parts of the terms and conditions will still apply.
14. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
These Program Terms, together with all other agreements, terms or conditions incorporated or referred to herein constitute the entire agreement between you and ALDO in connection with the Program, and supersede any prior understandings or agreements (whether electronic, oral or written) regarding the subject matter hereof, and may not be amended or modified except in writing, or by ALDO making such amendments or modifications available to it pursuant to the Program Terms.
15. NO WAIVER
The failure of ALDO to enforce any provision of the Program Terms or to respond to a breach by you or any third party of the Program Terms shall not in any way waive the right of ALDO to subsequently enforce any of the terms contained herein or to act with respect to similar breaches.
