3. Warranties and Limitation of Liability (or the Things You Can’t Sue Us For):
A. Items Your clients Purchase through our sites: Youunderstandthat Theoffordbrand cannot and does not make any warranties about our clients' images, content, stores, or what they sell to their end customer that we may warehouse. Any legal claim related to an item your customers purchase must be brought directly against you as the seller of the item. You release Theoffordbrand from any claims related to items sold through our Services, including consideration for defective items, misrepresentations by sellers, or items that caused physical injury (like product liability claims) from warehoused goods.
B. Content You Access: Youmaycomeacrossmaterialsthatyoufindoffensive or inappropriate while using our Services. We make no representations concerning any content posted by users through the Services. Theoffordbrand is not responsible for the accuracy, copyright compliance, legality, or decency of content posted by users that you accessed through the Services. You release us from all liability relating to that content.
C. Policy Decisions on Content and Art: Policy decisions themselves are complex in nature. We consider many different and often divergent factors before coming to a decision about what is best for our company, communities, and clients. Because we are a creatively neutral company, we err on the side of freedom of expression. We also tend to allow items that have educational, historical, or artistic value, but we know that even those items are subject to a variety of valid and sometimes conflicting interpretations and emotional responses.
i. Art and history can be provocative, emotional, and divisive. There are some topics on which we may never reach a consensus as a society, and that is okay.
D. Third-Party Services: Our stores on our site(s) may contain links to third-party websites or services that we don’t own or control (for example, links to Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest). You may also need to use a third party’s product or service in order to use some of our Services (like a compatible mobile device to use our mobile apps). When you access these third-party services, you do so at your own risk. The third parties may require you to accept their own terms of use. Theoffordbrand is not a party to those agreements; they are solely between you and the third party.
E. Warranties: TheoffordbrandisdedicatedtomakingourServicesthebestthey can be, but we’re not perfect and sometimes things can go wrong. You understand that our Services are provided “as is” and without any kind of warranty (express or implied). We are expressly disclaiming any warranties of title, non-infringement, merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose, as well as any warranties implied by a course of performance, course of dealing, or usage of trade.
We do not guarantee that:
- The Services will be secure or available at any particular time or location;
- any defects or errors will be corrected;
- the Services will always be free of viruses or other harmful materials; or
- the results of using the Services will meet your expectations. You use the Services solely at your own risk. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties, so the above limitations may not apply to you
F. Liability Limits: To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither Theoffordbrand, nor our employees or directors shall be liable to you for any lost profits or revenues, or for any consequential, incidental, indirect, special, or punitive damages arising out of or in connection with the Services or these Terms. In no event shall Theoffordbrand’s aggregate liability for any damages exceed the greater of one hundred ($100) US Dollars or the amount you paid Theoffordbrand in the past twelve months, whichever is least. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
4. Indemnification (or What Happens If You Get Us Sued):
We hope this never happens, but in the instance Theoffordbrand should get sued because of something that you did, you agree to defend and indemnify us. That means you’ll defend Theoffordbrand (including any of our employees) and hold us harmless from any legal claim or demand (including reasonable attorney’s fees) that arises from your actions, your use (or misuse) of our Services, your breach of the Terms, or your account’s infringement of someone else’s rights.
We reserve the right to handle our legal defense however we see fit, even if you are indemnifying us, in which case you agree to cooperate with us so we can execute our strategy.
5. Disputes with Theoffordbrand:
If you’re upset with us, let us know right away, and hopefully we can resolve your issue. But if we can’t, then these rules will govern any legal dispute involving our Services:
A. Governing Law: The Terms are governed by the laws of the State in which Theoffordbrand resides as an organizational facility, without regard to its conflict of laws rules, and the laws of the United States of America. These laws will apply no matter where in the world you live, but if you live outside of the United States, you may be entitled to the protection of the mandatory consumer protection provisions of your local consumer protection law.
B. Arbitration: You and Theoffordbrand agree that any dispute or claim arising from or relating to the Terms shall be finally settled by final and binding arbitration, using the English language, administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rule in effect at that time (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section, and as of the date of these Terms you can find them here or by calling the AAA at 1–800–778–7879). Arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with those rules. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction. Any arbitration under the Terms will take place on an individual basis—class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. You understand that by agreeing to the Terms, you and Theoffordbrand are each waiving the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class action or class arbitration. Not with standing the foregoing, each party shall have the right to bring an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable or conservatory relief, pending a final decision by the arbitrator. You may instead assert your claim in “small claims” court, but only if your claim qualifies, your claim remains in such court, and your claim remains on an individual, non-representative, and non-class basis.
C. Costs of Arbitration: Payment for any and all reasonable AAA filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees will be in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules. If the value of your claim does not exceed $10,000, Theoffordbrand will pay for the reasonable filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose.
D. Forum: We’re based in multiple states so any legal action against Theoffordbrand related to our Services must be filed and take place in the state of choice solely reserved by Theoffordbrand. That means the seat of any arbitration shall be in any state Theoffordbrand chooses. For any actions not subject to arbitration, you (where your contract is with Theoffordbrand) and Theoffordbrand agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in Los Angeles County, CA, or Mecklenburg County, NC, or (where your contract is confirmed with Theoffordbrand in Europe) you and Theoffordbrand agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of Riga, Latvia.
E. Modifications: If we make any changes to this “Disputes with Theoffordbrand” section after the date you last accepted the Terms, those changes will not apply to any claims filed in a legal proceeding against Theoffordbrand prior to the date the changes became effective. Theoffordbrand will include all changes to any terms and policies in the “Change Log” section of our website at least 30 days prior to the date the change will become effective. If you do not agree to the modified terms, you may send Theoffordbrand a written notification (including email) or close your account within those 30 days of notice.
Rejection of Modification: By rejecting a modified term or permanently closing your account, you agree to arbitrate any disputes between you and Theoffordbrand in accordance with the provisions of this “Disputes with Theoffordbrand” section as of the date you last accepted the Terms, including any changes made prior to your rejection. If you leave open or reopen your closed account or create a new account, you agree to be bound by the current version of the Terms of Service and Conditions.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we believe that the changes are material, we’ll definitely let you know by doing one (or more) of the following: (1) posting the changes through the Services or (2) sending you an email or message about the changes. That way you can decide whether you want to continue using the Services. Changes will be effective upon the posting of the changes. You are responsible for reviewing and becoming familiar with any changes. Your use of the Services following the changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
Some Finer Legal Points
The Terms and Conditions for content, including all of the guidelines and policy that make up the Terms in totality, supersede any other agreement between you and Theoffordbrand regarding the Services. If any part of the Terms is found to be unenforceable, that part will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so that the Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any part of the Terms is not a waiver of our right to later enforce that or any other part of the Terms. We may assign any of our rights and obligations under the Terms.
