Products may differ slightly from how depicted in any illustrations, photography, or descriptions on this Website. Company has made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colours of Products as they appear on this Website. However, as the actual colours you see will depend on photographic processes and your screen, Company cannot guarantee that your screen’s display of any colour will be accurate.

IN PARTICULAR, BUT WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE PRECEDING SENTENCE, THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS AND SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PERFORMING ANY DUTY IMPLIED BY THE SALE OF GOODS ACT, RSA 2000 c. S-2, AND COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE PERFORMANCE OR NON-PERFORMANCE OF ANY DUTY IMPLIED THEREBY. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION, PHOTOGRAPHS, ADVERTISEMENTS OR ADVICE GIVEN BY COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WILL CREATE A REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR CONDITION OR IN ANY WAY DETRACT FROM THE SCOPE OF THIS DISCLAIMER.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PERMIT SOME OF THE FOREGOING EXCLUSIONS OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OR LIMITATIONS. THEREFORE, THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Subject to Sections 2 and 4 of these Terms, Company warrants that you will be sent the Products you order. If the order you receive does not contain the Products you ordered, or if the quantity of Products does not match the quantity ordered, you must contact Company not later than 24 hours of receiving the order. Provided that you notify Company within 24 hours after receiving your order of any discrepancies with it, Company agrees to investigate the order, and if Company determines, in its sole discretion, that you did not receive the Products you ordered, Company may elect to: (a) issue a refund for the products you have not received; (b) ship you replacement Products; or (c) take such other remedial action as Company determines.
YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE USE OR MISUSE OF THE PRODUCTS YOU ORDER. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU WILL ONLY USE THE PRODUCTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS. YOU WAIVE AND RELEASE COMPANY FROM ANY CLAIM, SUIT, EXPENSE, OR LIABILITY THAT ARISES FROM OR IS ANY WAY RELATED TO YOUR USE, MISUSE, OR FAILURE TO USE THE PRODUCTS.

Section 6. Entire Agreement
These Terms set forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to its subject matter. These Terms may not be altered, supplemented, or amended by the use of any other documents. Any attempt to alter, supplement or amend this document or to enter an order for Products that are subject to additional or altered terms and conditions will be null and void. These Terms may be changed by Company at any time, in its sole discretion without prior notice, with respect to any future sales or transactions with you.
Section 7. Governing Law, Disputes and Language
These Terms and the subject matter of these Terms and all related matters will be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and the laws of Canada applicable in British Columbia, excluding any laws that implement the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods or the U.S. Uniform Commercial Code, and excluding any conflict of laws rules. Subject to the following paragraph, you submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, unless Company agrees otherwise, any claim, dispute or controversy, whether in contract or tort, pursuant to statute or regulation, or otherwise, and whether pre-existing, present or future, arising out of or relating to the Products, this Website, the General Terms and these Terms (each, a “Claimâ€) will be determined by final and binding arbitration to the exclusion of the courts. Where applicable, arbitration will be conducted in British Columbia on a simplified and expedited basis by one arbitrator pursuant to the current laws and rules relating to commercial arbitration in the province or territories in which you reside on the date of the notice. The foregoing does not, however, preclude Company from seeking injunctive relief in other jurisdictions when necessary to protect its interests. You agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you waive any right to a jury trial.
These Terms have been drawn up in the English language at the express request of the parties. Les présentes modalités ont été rédigées en anglais à la demande expresse des parties.
Section 8. Export Controls
The Products sold under these Terms are subject to applicable Canadian, United States and other export control laws and regulations, and you agree you are responsible for ensuring compliance with such laws and regulations. Without limiting the generality of the previous sentence, you acknowledge and agree that you may be required to obtain export permits to export Products on Canada’s Export Control List, or to a country on Canada’s Area Control List or if the Products are of United States origin.
Section 9. Notices
Except as explicitly stated otherwise, any notices will be given to Company by email to 800 W Pender Street #1510, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6C 2V6 and to you to the email address you provide to Company during the sale or registration process.

The failure of Company to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition will not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse any subsequent non-performance of any such term or condition by you. The headings used in these Terms are included for convenience only and will not limit or otherwise affect these Terms. If any provision of these Terms will be ruled unenforceable, then the remainder will be enforced to the extent permissible. This Website is not intended for use by children under the age of 18.
