3. Terms Applicable to Purchases

A. Purchases Generally. To purchase any products or services sold through the Service, you must be at least eighteen (18) years of age or the applicable age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence or if you are a minor and have a valid gift card or a credit or debit card where an adult has listed you as an authorized user of their card.  By submitting that information to us or to our third-party credit card processor or service provider, you agree that you authorize us and/or our processor or service provider to charge your card/account at our convenience. For any product or service that you order on the Service, you agree to pay the price applicable (including any sales taxes, shipping and handling fees and surcharges) as of the time you submit the order.  We will automatically bill your credit card or other form of payment submitted as part of the order process for such price.

B. Methods of Payment, Credit Card Terms and Taxes. All payments must be made through any of the methods that are accepted at the time of payment by us or by our payment services provider. Your card issuer agreement governs your use of your designated card or payment account, and you must refer to that agreement and not these terms to determine your rights and liabilities as a card or account holder.  If for any reason your default payment method is declined or no longer available, you authorize us to charge any other payment method that you have authorized for use on your account with us.  You will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts.  You represent and warrant that you will not use any credit card or other form of payment unless you have all necessary legal authorization to do so.  YOU, AND NOT US, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ANY UNAUTHORIZED AMOUNTS BILLED TO YOUR CREDIT CARD BY A THIRD PARTY.  You agree to pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with your purchases (including any applicable taxes, shipping and handling fees and surcharges) at the rates in effect and disclosed to you when the charges were incurred.  If we do not receive payment from your credit card issuer or its agent, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand by us or our agents.  Sales taxes, or other taxes, customs, import/export charges, or similar governmental charges are not included in the advertised price of the products.  We will charge the applicable taxes in effect at the time of purchase. We shall automatically charge and withhold the applicable tax for orders to be delivered to addresses within and any provinces/territories or localities that we deem is required in accordance with our order policy in effect at the time of purchase.

C. Return Policy and Orders/Shipping Policy. All purchase transactions made through the Service are subject to our return policy and orders/shipping policy in effect at the time of purchase.  Our current Return Policy can be found here and is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Our current Orders/Shipping Policy can be found here and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.  Some products or services may be made-on-demand and may be subject to additional policies, conditions and restrictions, and may take longer to ship. Such on-demand items are made and fulfilled to order, and will be noted on the product or services description. Products or services made-on-demand may not be returned or exchanged unless damaged or incorrect on arrival due to our error or mistake. All products purchased from us are delivered to you by a third-party delivery company, pursuant to a shipping contract.  You shall become the owner of the products and shall assume the risk of loss at the time of delivery by us of the products to the third-party delivery company.  We shall not be in default if delivery is delayed or rendered impossible by forces of nature, war, civil commotion, governmental action, terrorism, fire, storm, flood, explosion, strikes, walkouts, pandemic, other industrial disturbances, utility, services or transportation interruptions or any other cause beyond our reasonable control.

D. Order Acceptance Policy. The policy set out herein does not apply if you reside in the Province of Québec, unless specified. Your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell or that the price or availability of an item has been confirmed. We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline your order (or otherwise cancel your order) for any reason. We further reserve the right any time after receipt of your order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item or refuse to fulfil your order (in whole or in part). Your order will be deemed accepted by us upon our delivery of the products or services that you have ordered. We may require additional verifications or information before accepting any order. Unlike in-stock orders, certain products or services may be made-on-demand and may be shipped to you directly from the third party on-demand vendor and subject to additional delay due to production methods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that, if we cancel all or a portion of your order or if we provide you less than the quantity you ordered, your sole and exclusive remedy is either that: (a) we will issue a credit to your card or payment account in the amount charged for the cancelled portion or the quantity not provided (if your card/account has already been charged for the order); or (b) we will not charge your card/account for the cancelled portion of the order or the quantity not provided. Do not assume that a cancellation or change of an order you have placed with us has been effectuated until you receive a confirmation from us via email. As stated above, you will be responsible for, and your credit/debit card or other third-party payment account may be charged for, the payment of all fees associated with orders already processed or shipped before your cancellation/change request or a request to terminate your order was received. We may refuse any order, including from a person residing in Québec, that is connected with a previous credit card dispute or previous apparent fraudulent activity. We may refuse to accept any order, including from a person residing in Québec, if fraudulent activity is suspected and we may refuse to process any subsequent order from a customer who has a history of placing fraudulent orders.

E. No Responsibility to Sell Mispriced Products. We do our best to describe every item, product or service offered on the Service as accurately as possible.  However, we are human, and therefore we do not warrant that specifications or pricing on the Service is complete, accurate, reliable, current, or error-free.  In the event of any errors relating to the pricing or specifications of any item, product or service, we shall have the right to revoke any stated price and to correct the error, inaccuracy or omission (including after a purchase has been made) or to refuse or cancel any orders in our sole discretion (including any accepted orders).  If we charged your credit/debit card or other account prior to cancellation, we will issue a credit to your account in the amount of the charge.  If we accept and process your order where a pricing or specification error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognized by you as a mispricing or misdescription, we may cancel the sale, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you under the order.  If a product you purchased from us is not as described on the Service, your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition, complete and undamaged, in the original packaging, subject to the terms of the Return Policy.

F. Modifications to Prices or Billing Terms. Purchases of products and services on the Service are subject to availability. All descriptions, images, references, features, content, information, specifications, products and prices described or depicted in connection with the Service are subject to change at any time without notice. We cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, availability and services, including for any items sold by third parties (if any). We reserve the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies or omissions at any time without prior notice (including after a purchase has been made).

EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW (INCLUDING THE PROVINCE OF QUÉBEC), descriptive, typographic and photographic errors are subject to correction and we shall have no liability of any kind for such errors. We reserve the right to modify or cancel orders for any reason, including for typographical, pricing and other errors at any time. We strive to display as accurately as possible the colors of the products shown on the Service; however, we cannot and do not guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color will be accurate. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES DISPLAYED ON THE SERVICE MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES AND MAY BE SUBSTITUTED OR DISCONTINUED AT ANY TIME. 

G. Offers and Discounts. For most promotional offers, such as coupons, vouchers, and discounts, restrictions apply. See offer for full terms and conditions applicable thereto.  Offers are not valid on previously purchased online merchandise, merchandise purchased through third parties, gift cards, taxes or shipping and handling and there is no cash value.  Limit one (1) offer per order. Offers may not be combined with other offers or promotions.  Offers are not valid if reproduced and they are only accepted for a limited time.  Please read the details of each offer, as coupons and promotional code restrictions vary.  We reserve the right to modify, suspend, impose conditions on or cancel offers at any time without notice.  If you return any of the items purchased with a discount offer, the discount or value may be subtracted from the return credit. We have no obligation for payment of any tax in conjunction with the distribution or use of any offer.  You are required to pay any applicable sales tax related to the use of the offer.

BBWD’s practices relating to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information are described in our Privacy Policy. If you register for any feature that requires a password and/or username, then you will select your own password at the time of registration (or we may send you an e-mail notification with a randomly generated initial password) and you agree that: (i) You will not use a username (or e-mail address) that is already being used by someone else, that may impersonate another person, that belongs to another person, that violates the intellectual property or other right of any person or entity, or that is offensive – we may reject the use of any password, username, or e-mail address for any other reason in our sole discretion; (ii) You will provide true, accurate, current, and complete registration information about yourself in connection with the registration process and, as permitted, to maintain and update it continuously and promptly to keep it accurate, current, and complete; (iii) You are solely responsible for all activities that occur under your account, password, and username – whether or not you authorized the activity; (iv) You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, for using a long and unique password that you do not use on or for other third-party websites, apps, or services, and for restricting access to your Device so that others may not access any password protected portion of the Service using your name, username, or password; (v) With respect to your account, you will immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account, password, or username, or any other breach of security; and (vi) You will not sell, transfer, or assign your account or any account rights.

EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW (INCLUDING THE PROVINCE OF QUÉBEC), we will not be liable for any loss or damage (of any kind and under any legal theory) to you or any third party arising from your inability or failure for any reason to comply with any of the foregoing obligations. If any information that you provide, or if we have reasonable grounds to suspect that any information that you provide, is false, inaccurate, outdated, incomplete, or violates these Terms, any Additional Terms, or any applicable law, then we may suspend or terminate your account. EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW (WHICH MAY INCLUDE THE PROVINCE OF QUÉBEC), we also reserve the more general and broad right to terminate your account or suspend or otherwise deny you access to it or its benefits – all in our sole discretion, for any reason, and without advance notice or liability.

Any Unsolicited Ideas and Materials you post on or send to us via the Service are deemed User Content and licensed to us as set forth below. In addition, BBWD retains all of the rights held by members of the general public with regard to your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials. BBWD’s receipt of your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials is not an admission by BBWD of their novelty, priority, or originality, and it does not impair BBWD’s right to contest existing or future intellectual property rights relating to your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials.

(ii) License to BBWD of Your User Content. Except as otherwise described in any applicable Additional Terms, you grant to BBWD the non-exclusive, unrestricted, unconditional, unlimited, worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, and cost-free right and license to use, copy, record, distribute, reproduce, disclose, sell, re-sell, sublicense (through multiple levels), display, publicly perform, transmit, publish, broadcast, translate, make derivative works of, and otherwise use and exploit in any manner whatsoever, all or any portion of your User Content (and derivative works thereof), for any purpose whatsoever in all formats, on or through any means or medium now known or hereafter developed, and with any technology or devices now known or hereafter developed, and to advertise, market, and promote the same. Without limitation, the granted rights include the right to: (a) configure, host, index, cache, archive, store, digitize, compress, optimize, modify, reformat, edit, adapt, adopt, publish in searchable format, and remove such User Content and combine same with other materials, and (b) use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any User Content for any purposes whatsoever, including developing, producing, and marketing products and/or services. You understand that in exercising such rights, metadata, notices and content may be removed or altered, including copyright management information, and you consent thereto and represent and warrant you have all necessary authority to do so. In order to further effect the rights and license that you grant to BBWD to your User Content, you also hereby grant to BBWD, and agree to grant to BBWD, the unconditional, perpetual, irrevocable right to use and exploit your name, persona, and likeness in connection with any User Content, without any obligation or remuneration to you.

To the extent not waivable, you irrevocably agree not to exercise such rights (if any) in a manner that interferes with any exercise of the granted rights. You understand that you will not receive any fees, sums, consideration, or remuneration for any of the rights granted in this Section 5(A)(ii).

(iii) Exclusive Right to Manage Our Service. BBWD may, but will not have any obligation to, review, monitor, display, post, store, maintain, accept, or otherwise make use of, any of your User Content, and BBWD may, in its sole discretion, reject, delete, move, re-format, remove or refuse to post or otherwise make use of User Content without notice or any liability to you or any third party in connection with our operation of User Content venues in an appropriate manner. Without limitation, we may do so to address content that comes to our attention that we believe is offensive, obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, violent, harassing, threatening, abusive, illegal or otherwise objectionable or inappropriate, or to enforce the rights of third parties or these Terms or any applicable Additional Terms, including, without limitation, the content restrictions set forth below in the Rules (defined in Section 5(B)). Such User Content submitted by you or others need not be maintained on the Service by us for any period of time and you will not have the right, once submitted, to access, archive, maintain, or otherwise use such User Content on the Service or elsewhere.

(iv) Enforcement. BBWD has no obligation to monitor or enforce your intellectual property rights to your User Content, but you grant us the right to protect and enforce our rights to your User Content, including by bringing and controlling actions in your name and on your behalf (at BBWD’s cost and expense, to which you hereby consent and irrevocably appoint BBWD as your attorney-in-fact, with the power of substitution and delegation, which appointment is coupled with an interest).

B. Community Usage Rules. As a user of the Service, these Community Usage Rules (“Rules”) are here to help you understand the conduct that is expected of visitors of the Service’s online forums and user content areas (collectively, “Communities”). (i) Nature of Rules. Your participation in the Communities is subject to all of the Terms, including these Rules:

  • Your User Content. All of your User Content either must be original with you or you must have all necessary rights in it from third parties in order to permit you to comply with these Terms and any Additional Terms. Your User Content should not contain any visible logos, phrases, or trademarks that belong to third parties. Do not use any User Content that belongs to other people and pass it off as your own; this includes any content that you might have found elsewhere on the Internet. If anyone contributes to your User Content or has any rights to your User Content, or if anyone appears or is referred to in the User Content, then you must also have their permission to submit such User Content to BBWD (for example, if someone has taken a picture of you and your friend, and you submit that photo to BBWD as your User Content, then you must obtain your friend’s and the photographer’s permission to do so.).
  • Speaking of Photos: No Pictures, Videos, or Images of Anyone Other Than You and Your Friends and Family. If you choose to submit photos to the Service, link to embedded videos, or include other images of real people, then make sure they are of you or of you and someone you know – and only if you have their express permission to submit it.
  • Act Appropriately. All of your Service activities must be venue appropriate, as determined by us. Be respectful of others’ opinions and comments so we can continue to build Communities for everyone to enjoy. If you think your User Content might offend someone or be embarrassing to someone, then chances are it probably will and it doesn’t belong on the Service. Cursing, harassing, bullying, stalking, insulting comments, personal attacks, gossip, and similar actions are prohibited. Your User Content must not threaten, abuse, or harm others, and it must not include any negative comments that are connected to race, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or physical handicap. Your User Content must not be defamatory, slanderous, indecent, obscene, pornographic, or sexually explicit.
