The use of this Site is governed by these Har-Tru Terms of Use (these “Terms of Use”) between each visitor to this Site (referred to in these Terms of Use as “you” or “your”) and Har-Tru. By accessing or using this Site, you agree to be bound by the provisions of these Terms of Use (these “Terms of Use”) and the Privacy Policy. By agreeing to these Terms of Use, Har-Tru grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable license to access and use the Har-Tru Website in accordance with these Terms of Use. If you violate any of these Terms of Use, the foregoing limited license to use the Har-Tru Website will automatically terminate. You agree to read these Terms of Use carefully.

1.2. Your Company. If you place any Orders through this Site or create a Har-Tru Account (as defined below) on behalf of another person or entity (“Your Company”), you represent and warrant to us that you have the authority and authorization to bind Your Company to these Terms of Use, and in that case: (i) in Section 1.1 above, the term “you” refers both to you and Your Company, and (ii) in every other section of these Terms of Use except for Section 1.1 above and this Section 1.2, the terms “you” and “your” refer to Your Company. If you do not have such authority and authorization, or if you or Your Company do not agree to all of the provisions of these Terms of Use, neither you nor Your Company are permitted to access or use this Site.

1.3. Binding Contract. You acknowledge that these Terms of Use are a legally binding contract between you and Har-Tru, even though it is not physically signed, and you acknowledge that these Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the Har-Tru Website and apply to all Orders you place through this Site. In these Terms of Use, you and Har-Tru are sometimes referred to individually as a “party” and collectively as the “parties”, and “User” (and “user”) refers to a person who accesses or uses the Har-Tru Website.

1.4. Important Provisions. These Terms of Use include important provisions affecting your legal rights and obligations, including, for example, a disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability by Har-Tru (see Section 13), dispute resolution provisions that include a waiver of the right to a jury, a limitation of the period of time for bringing a claim against us, and an agreement that any court proceedings will take place only in Albemarle County, Virginia or the City of Charlottesville, Virginia (see Section 15), and an obligation for you to pay any expenses and liabilities (such as damages, costs, or legal claims) that the Har-Tru Parties suffer as a result of your violation of any of the provisions of these Terms of Use, your use of the Har-Tru Website, and other actions by you (see Section 12). The previous examples are not comprehensive, and you are responsible for reading and agreeing to all of the provisions of these Terms of Use as a condition of your access and use of the Har-Tru Website or the other Har-Tru Solutions.

2. Privacy Policy. Our Privacy Policy, located at https://hartru.com/pages/privacy-policy (the “Privacy Policy”), explains how we collect and use your information. You acknowledge and agree that the provisions of the Privacy Policy are made a part of these Terms of Use.

3. Modification. As technology changes and as our business grows and develops, we may modify these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy from time to time. When we modify these Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy, we will give you notice by posting the amended Terms of Use or Privacy Policy on the Har-Tru Website. The amended Terms of Use and Privacy Policy will include an effective date, and they will be effective on that date. However, any changes to the governing law or dispute resolution provisions set forth in Sections 14 and 15 will not apply to any disputes for which Har-Tru and you have received actual notice on before such Effective Date. If you continue to access or use this Site after the Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy are amended, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the updated Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, you agree that you will promptly (1) discontinue your use of the Har-Tru Website, and (2) contact us at hartru@hartru.com to request that your Har-Tru Account be closed. You can access historical versions of these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy at: https://hartru.com/pages/terms-and-conditions and https://hartru.com/pages/privacy-policy.

7. Orders.

7.1. Product Descriptions. We attempt to be provide product descriptions that are as accurate as possible. However, we do not warrant that product descriptions or other content on the Har-Tru Website is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. If a product offered by Har-Tru itself is not as described, your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition (excluding products that are not eligible for return) pursuant to the terms of our return policy set forth in Section 7.7 below.

7.2. Pricing. Prices and availability are subject to change without notice. We cannot confirm the price of a product until you place your Order. In the event of a pricing error, we may refuse or cancel any Orders placed for that Ordered Product. If the correct price of an Ordered Product sold by Har-Tru is higher than our stated price shown on this Site or in an Order Confirmation, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or refuse or cancel your Order and notify you of such cancellation.

7.3. Payment.

7.3.1. Payment Information and Processing. You are responsible for making full and complete payment for all Orders. If you choose to place an Order, you acknowledge and agree that you will provide complete and accurate billing contact and payment information as requested by Har-Tru (your “Payment Information”). You may be required to pay for Orders by credit card or debit card, and you authorize us to charge any credit card(s) or debit card(s) that you include as part of your Payment Information for all payments owed for such Orders. Subject to the Privacy Policy, your Payment Information may be transmitted to and stored by a third party payment processor. We currently use Shopify Inc. (“Shopify”), a third party payment processor, to process payments for Orders. Your Payment Information collected through the Har-Tru Website is transmitted directly to Shopify and is not stored by Har-Tru. You acknowledge and agree that the processing of payments for Orders is subject to the Shopify Terms of Service (https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms) and the Shopify Privacy Policy (https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy) and that we are not responsible for any acts or omissions of Shopify.

7.3.2. Charge Backs. In no event are we responsible for any failure to process payment for any Orders. In the event of a charge back by a credit card company, or any similar action by a payment provider or payment processor (a “Charge Back”), you agree that we may suspend or cancel any affected Orders, redirect any shipments associated with such Orders, and/or suspend, close, or terminate your Har-Tru Account. You agree that you will promptly reimburse us for any expenses or fees incurred by us as a result of such Charge Back.

7.4. Taxes. The product prices listed on the Har-Tru Website do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). You are responsible for paying all Taxes associated with your Orders. If Har-Tru has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which you are responsible under this Section 7.4, we may include such taxes in the Order Total or invoice you separately for that amount unless you provide us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority, and you will pay such Taxes within thirty (30) days of receipt of the invoice therefor. For clarity, Har-Tru is solely responsible for taxes assessable against it based on its income, property, and employees.

7.5. Shipping, Title and Risk of Loss. The Ordered Products will be shipped within a reasonable period of time, subject to product availability. We may, in our sole discretion, without liability or penalty, make partial shipments to you of the Ordered Products. Orders will be shipped to the address specified by you through the Har-Tru Website when you place your Order. All Ordered Products purchased from Har-Tru are made pursuant to a shipment contract, and the title and risk of loss for such Ordered Products pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier. We will not be liable for any delays, loss, or damage in transit, except to the extent caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct. You will be responsible for any and all unloading costs and provide any equipment and labor reasonably necessary and suited for receipt of the Ordered Products. If for any reason you fail to accept delivery of any of any Ordered Products, or if we or the carrier are unable to deliver such Ordered Products because you have not provided appropriate instructions, documents, licenses or authorizations: (i) such products shall be deemed to have been delivered; and (ii) we may, at our option, store the Ordered Products until you pick them up, in which case you will be liable for all related costs and expenses (including storage and insurance).

7.6. Missing Products or Wrong Quantity. The quantity of any installment of Ordered Products as recorded by us upon dispatch from our facility is conclusive evidence of the quantity received by you on delivery unless you can provide conclusive evidence proving the contrary. We will not be liable for any non-delivery of Ordered Products unless you give us written notice of the non-delivery within five (5) days of the date when the Ordered Products would have been received in the ordinary course of events. Any liability of Har-Tru for non-delivery of any Ordered Products will be limited to delivering the missing Ordered Products within a reasonable time or refunding that portion of the Order Total that corresponds to the missing Ordered Products. If we delivers to you a quantity of Ordered Products of up to ten percent (10%) more than the quantity set forth in the Order, then you will, at our option, return the surplus pursuant to Section 7.7.2 below or retain and pay for such surplus the price set forth on the Order, adjusted pro rata.

7.7. Returns and Refunds.

7.7.1. You will inspect the Ordered Products within ten (10) days after receipt (the “Inspection Period”). You will be deemed to have accepted the Ordered Products unless you give us written notice of any Nonconforming Products during the Inspection Period and provide such written evidence or other documentation as we may reasonably request. “Nonconforming Products” means only the following: (i) the products shipped are different than identified in your Order; or (ii) the label or packaging for a shipment of Ordered Products incorrectly identifies its contents; or (iii) products shipped materially differ from the description on this Site for such Ordered Products. If you timely notify us of any Nonconforming Products, we will, in our sole discretion, (i) replace such Nonconforming Products with conforming products, or (ii) credit or refund the portion of your Order Total that applies to such Nonconforming Products, together with any reasonable shipping and handling expenses paid by you in connection with the shipment of such Nonconforming Products. If no other return address is provided by us, you will ship, at your expense and risk of loss, the Nonconforming Products to our facility identified in the Order Confirmation. If we exercise our option to replace Nonconforming Products, we will, after receiving your shipment of Nonconforming Products, ship the replaced products to you at the address to which the Nonconforming Products were previously shipped to you, which will be at your expense and risk of loss. You acknowledge and agree that the remedies set forth in this Section 7.7.1 are your exclusive remedies for the delivery of Nonconforming Products.

7.7.2. Except as provided under Section 7.7.1 above, all sales of Ordered Products are made on a one-way basis and you have no right to return Ordered Products without our express, prior written authorization. Any such discretionary returns that may be authorized by us are subject to a ten percent (10%) restocking fee and, for Orders paid by credit card, we will deduct a 2.4% credit card processing fee from any total approved refund amount. If you return Ordered Products (i) that you are not entitled to return, (ii) that are not in their original condition, (iii) that are without proper or missing packaging, (iv) with items missing from the return delivery, or (v) without following our return instructions, or if you have otherwise failed to exercise reasonable care when taking care of and returning Ordered Products, we reserve the right either to reject the return and decline to refund or to deduct from those payments to be refunded to you reasonable repair or other similar direct costs that we have incurred.

7.8. Order Cancellations. All sales are final and you may not cancel any Orders. We reserve the right to cancel any Order, in whole or in part, at any time and for any reason, including without limitation for pricing errors, items that are out of stock or unavailable, or your violation of any provision of these Terms of Use (including the Privacy Policy). If we cancel any of your Orders, in whole or in part, we will issue you a full refund for all payments received by us for the portions of the Order cancelled by us, which will be your sole and exclusive remedy in the event of such cancellation.

8. Limited Product Warranties.

8.1. Except as otherwise set forth on Har-Tru’s product warranties page located at https://hartru.com/pages/terms-and-conditions (the “Limited Warranty Statements”), Har-Tru warrants that, for a period of twelve (12) months from the date an Order is shipped, the products included in such shipment will materially conform to the specifications set forth in Har-Tru’s published specifications in effect as of the date of manufacture and will be free from material defects in material and workmanship. Such twelve-month period, or the applicable limited warranty period set forth in the Limited Warranty Statements, if any, shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Warranty Period.”

Third Party Products are not covered by the warranties in Section 8.1 above. For the avoidance of doubt, WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY (1) WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY; (2) WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; (3) WARRANTY OF TITLE; OR (4) WARRANTY AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF A THIRD PARTY; WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY LAW, COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE OF TRADE OR OTHERWISE.

We will not be liable for a breach of the warranties set forth in Section 8.1 above unless: (i) you give us written notice of the defect, described in reasonable detail, within ten (10) days of the time when you discover or reasonably should have discovered the defect; (ii) we are given a reasonable opportunity after receiving such notice to examine such products and, if requested by us, you return such products to us at our cost; and (iii) we reasonably verify your claim that the products are defective.

8.4. We will not be liable for a breach of the warranties set forth in Section 8.1 above if: (i) you (or anyone else) makes any further use of such products after giving such notice; (ii) the defect arises because you failed to follow our oral or written instructions as to the storage, installation, commissioning, use, or maintenance of the products; or (iii) you alter or repair such products without our prior written consent.

8.5. Subject to Sections 8.3 and 8.4 above, with respect to any such products during the Warranty Period, we will, in our sole discretion, either: (i) repair or replace such products (or the defective part) or (ii) credit or refund the price of such products at the pro rata purchase price, provided that, if we so request, you will, at our expense, return such products to us.

8.6. THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.5 ARE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND OUR ENTIRE LIABILITY FOR ANY BREACH OF THE LIMITED WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN Section 8.1 above.

If you believe any User Content accessible on or through the Har-Tru Solutions infringes your Intellectual Property Rights (other than your copyrights), you may request removal of the User Content (or access thereto) from the Har-Tru Solutions by submitting written notification to the Har-Tru Intellectual Property Agent (designated above). The written notice (an “Infringement Notice”) must include all of the following:

Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification and description of the Intellectual Property Rights you believe to have been infringed. If you are reporting a claim of trademark infringement, your written notice must identify the exact trademark, service mark, or other mark (and if the mark is anything other than standard characters, you must include a copy of the mark), a description of the goods or services for which you believe you have trademark rights, the registration number and office of registration (if applicable), and a description of the reason why you believe the User Content (“Alleged Infringing Content”) causes a likelihood of confusion with or dilution of your mark.
Identification of the Alleged Infringing Content you believe to be infringing in a sufficiently precise manner to allow us to locate it. Adequate information by which we can contact you (such as your name, mailing address, telephone number, and, if available, an e-mail address).
A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the Alleged Infringing Content is not authorized by the owner of the Intellectual Property Rights, the owner’s agent, or the law.
A statement that the information in the written notice is accurate.
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are the authorized owner of the Intellectual Property Rights or that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the Intellectual Property Rights.

Upon receipt of an Infringement Notice, we may act in any manner that we deem reasonable and appropriate, including without limitation, temporarily or permanently Removing the Alleged Infringing Content described in such Infringement Notice. However, we will generally endeavor to provide a copy of the Infringing Notice to the user who is responsible for the applicable Alleged Infringing Content (the “Responsible Party”) and request that such Responsible Party provide a written response to the party alleging infringement (the “Asserting Party”) or to us, in which case we will forward such response to the Asserting Party, together with the Responsible Party’s contact information (name, address and e-mail address). If the Responsible Party’s response is not satisfactory to the Asserting Party, or the Responsible Party fails to respond within ten (10) business days of the date we forward the Infringement Notice, we may disclose, if known, the name, address, e-mail address, and other contact information of such Responsible Party to the Asserting Party, in which case, such Responsible Party and such Asserting Party shall communicate directly to resolve the matters alleged in such Infringement Notice. Thereafter, but without limiting our rights to take any other action that we deem appropriate or reasonable (including Removing the Alleged Infringing Content), we shall Remove or otherwise act with respect to the Alleged Infringing Content upon a written direction from both the Asserting Party and the Responsible Party or in accordance with Section 10.1 above.

HAR-TRU HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO ANY PERSON FOR REMOVING ANY USER CONTENT OR OTHER CONTENT OR MATERIALS. YOU AND EACH USER EXPRESSLY AND FOREVER WAIVE ALL CLAIMS AGAINST THE HAR-TRU PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE TEMPORARY OR PERMANENT SUSPENSION OR REMOVAL OF ANY USER CONTENT OR OTHER CONTENT OR MATERIALS.
