Unless expressly stated otherwise, all shipping times specified on the Site or any order confirmation are good-faith approximations only, based on the total estimated time to process your order.

Shipments to some areas may take longer due to the frequency of deliveries to the delivery zip code, delays in inventory or packaging, transit time to the delivery provider, and transit time to the delivery address.
It is our policy to process all credit card charges in full at the time an order is submitted. By submitting an order on the Site, you agree that your credit card will be charged in full for the balance of your order at the time the order is submitted.

For your protection, our payment processor may use various fraud prevention protocols and industry standard verification systems to reduce fraud and you authorize it to verify and authenticate your payment information. Please note, it is possible that your card issuer may charge you an online handling fee or processing fee. We are not responsible for this. In some jurisdictions, our payment processor may use third parties for the purposes of payment processing services.
Title to Products which you purchase on the Site, and all associated risk of loss, passes to you upon our delivery of the Products to the shipment carrier. In the event that a product return is necessary, title and risk of loss remains with you until the Product arrives at our facility.

ARBITRATION
Arbitration Agreement. The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof) or the Products shall be by binding non-appearance-based arbitration (the provisions of this Section being referred to as the “Arbitration Agreement”). In the event a party elects arbitration, they shall initiate such arbitration before a single arbitrator through an established alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”) provider mutually agreed upon by the parties, or, if no agreement is reached within ten (10) days of a request for agreement, then according to the rules (“Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and (c) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as confidential, as provided in the Rules. Before making any disclosure permitted by the Rules, a party shall give written notice to the other party and afford such party a reasonable opportunity to protect its interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pl8tek may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Site or Products, disclosure of our confidential information or trade secrets, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in the dispute resolution process described above. Any proceeding to enforce this Arbitration Agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. If you or we pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the Rules for the relevant claim.
Waiver of Jury Trial. Except as otherwise set forth herein, each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury for any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor we will seek to have any dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity, and each party hereby waives any right to assert consolidated claims with respect to any disputes subject to arbitration under this Agreement or any disputes between the parties. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.
MISCELLANEOUS
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Pl8tek with regard to your use of the Site and purchase of Products, and any and all other written or oral agreements or understandings previously existing between you and Pl8tek with respect to such use or purchase are hereby superseded and cancelled. Any conflicting terms on any purchase order or other documentation provided by you in connection with your use of the Site or purchase of Products are hereby rejected and shall be void and of no effect. If any of the provisions of this Agreement are held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary and replaced with a valid provision that best embodies the intent of this Agreement, so that the terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Pl8tek's failure to insist on or enforce strict performance of any terms of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver by Pl8tek of any provision or any right it has to enforce such terms in the future, nor shall any course of conduct between Pl8tek and you or any other party be deemed to modify any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may only be amended by written agreement executed by each of the parties. This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed to confer any rights or remedies on any third parties.
