            G.        Return Policy and Procedure

OUR RETURN POLICY IS IN ADDITION TO ANY STATUTORY RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE UNDER LAW. For more details on returns, please see our Shipping & Returns Policy.

We hope that you will be pleased with Products you purchase using our Services. However, if for any reason you decide to return a Product that you purchased via our Services, you must return the unopened, unused Product to us within thirty (30) days from the date such Product was purchased by mailing the Product to 1175 South Meridian Park Road, Suite A, Salt Lake City, Utah 84104, United States with the receipt or proof of purchase. Company will not accept returns of products purchased from other retailers (including Amazon). Any Company-branded products purchased from other retailers are subject to that retailer’s return policies, and Company disclaims any liability with respect to the return of such products. In addition, Company will only accept a return if the Product(s) are returned from the country where it was originally shipped by Company.

Company does not take title to returned Products until the Product is received by Company. Once the Product has been received and processed and the Company determines that such Product is eligible for a return, Company will issue a refund to the original payment method used to purchase the Product. The refund amount will include the purchase price of the returned Product and any associated sales tax. Unless prohibited by law, any shipping and handling charges paid for the original purchase will not be refunded.

11. Price Match Guarantee

If we lower our online Product price (including for sales to Canada) within thirty (30) days of your purchase of the same Product, we will match our lower price, upon request, with an online store credit. One price match per identical item, per customer, at the current pre-tax price available to all customers is allowed. Our price matching does not cover Products sold through third-party websites, retail stores, or other locations where the identical items may be sold.

12. Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Company and our subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of our respective officers, directors, agents, partners and employees (individually and collectively, the “Company Parties”) from and against any losses, liabilities, claims, demands, damages, expenses or costs (“Claims”) arising out of or related to (a) your access to or use of our Products or Services; (b) your User Content or Feedback; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation, misappropriation or infringement of any rights of another (including intellectual property rights or privacy rights); or (e) your conduct in connection with our Products or Services.

15. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Company and the other Company Parties will not be liable to you under any theory of liability—whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise—for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, punitive or special damages or lost profits, even if Company or the other Company Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Regardless of the form of action, in no event will Company and the other Company Parties be liable for any amount of damages in excess of the fees actually paid by you to Company for the specific Product(s) that directly caused the damage, except that for any claims unrelated to the Products, such as any claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Services, the total aggregate liability of Company and the Company Parties is limited to the greater of US$100.

The limitations set forth in this Section 15 will not limit or exclude liability for the gross negligence, fraud or intentional misconduct of Company or the other Company Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. These limitations will apply notwithstanding any failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

16. Transfer and Processing Data

In order for us to provide our Services, you agree that we may process, transfer and store information about you in the United States and other countries, where you may not have the same rights and protections as you do under local law. For more details on transferring of personal information, please see our Privacy Policy.

17. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration

IF YOU ARE IN THE UNITED STATES:

Please read this Section 17 carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Company and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration agreement. In addition, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial.

No Representative Actions. You and Company agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms, our Products, or our Services is personal to you and Company and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.

Arbitration of Disputes. Except for small claims disputes in which you or Company seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or Company seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and Company waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms, our Products, or our Services resolved in court. Instead, for any dispute or claim that you have against Company or relating in any way to our Products or Services, you agree to first contact Company and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to Company by email at [email protected] or by certified mail addressed 1175 South Meridian Park Road, Suite A, Salt Lake City UT 84104, United States. The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and Company cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings will be held in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States, or may be conducted telephonically or via video conference for disputes alleging damages less than $5,000, unless you are a consumer, in which case you may elect to hold the arbitration in your county of residence in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”). For purposes of this Section 17, you will be deemed a “consumer” if you use our Products and Services for your personal, family or household purposes. The most recent version of the JAMS Rules are available on the JAMS website and are hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

You and Company agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce, and that the enforceability of this Section 17 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability. The arbitrator may conduct only an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

The arbitrator, Company, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality unless the law provides to the contrary. The arbitration will allow for the discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

You and Company agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee (up to a maximum of $250 if you are a consumer), and Company will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by Company, we will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and Company agree that the state or federal courts of the State of Utah and the United States sitting in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and Company will not have the right to assert the claim.

Opt-Out. You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 17 by emailing us at [email protected] or by certified mail addressed 1175 South Meridian Park Road, Suite A, Salt Lake City, Utah 84104, United States. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with Section 17.

IF YOU ARE IN CANADA:

For any dispute or claim that you have against Company or relating in any way to our Products or Services, you agree to first contact Company and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to Company by email at [email protected] or by certified or registered mail addressed to 1175 South Meridian Park Road, Suite A, Salt Lake City UT 84104, United States. The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and Company cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to litigation.

Severability. If any portion of this Section 17 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 17 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 17; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration.
