3. TERMS OF SALE
3.1 Introduction
Shave.net sells shaving razors, grooming supplies, and other personal care products (the “Products”) to end-user customers who purchase a recurring membership plan (“Members”) to have the Products shipped regularly on a schedule of the Member’s choosing only for their own personal, non-commercial use (the “Membership”). You may not purchase Products or Memberships for further distribution or resale or for any other commercial or business purpose. The Membership and all rights and privileges conferred are personal and non-transferable.
3.2 Products and Product Pricing
The price that we will charge you for the Products and Membership may be based on a tiered pricing structure that depends on Membership chosen and the number of Products in each Member’s restock box (each a “Box”). Pricing for Products and Memberships (including any applicable shipping and handling fees) can be found on the Shave.net Services. Members may view or customize the Products in each Box by visiting the “Box” page. By adding or removing Products from a Box, or changing your Membership, this may change the price that we will charge you for the Products and Box. We reserve the right to change a Product’s price or the tiered pricing structure at any time, with appropriate notice to you. We do not provide price protection or refunds in the event of promotions or price decreases.
3.3 Memberships and Promotions
Members may begin or reactivate their Membership with a promotional trial period, allowing the Member to receive trial-sized or other promotional Product(s) at a reduced price based on the Membership selected (“Starter Box”). Members may also choose to add additional Products to their Box on a one-time or recurring basis (“Add-On Products”). At that time, the Payment Method will be charged for only the price, and any shipping and taxes (if applicable), of the Starter Box and any Add-On Products selected. For combinations with other promotions and offers, restrictions may apply. Shave.net reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine your Starter Box eligibility.
Thereafter, Members will receive full-size Products shipped regularly based on the Membership and/or Products selected (each a “Restock Box”). Shave.net will bill your credit, debit, or other Company-accepted payment method (“Payment Method”) for the applicable Restock Box based on your Membership and any Add-On Products you select for each Box in accordance with Section 4.1, unless you cancel your Membership in accordance with Section 4.3.
To view the specific details of your Membership, including frequency of shipments and next ship date, visit our website and click on “Account.” To view your next Box price, Box contents, and ship date, click on “Box”.
Shave.net reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to withdraw or modify any Product, Membership, offering, or promotion at any time without prior notice and with no liability. Any and all Products, Memberships, offers, or promotions advertised on the Shave.net Services are void where prohibited, and are subject to the posting of any official rules to such offers or promotions.
3.4 Processing Orders
If any problems arise with your order, or with the shipping address or Payment Method associated with your Membership, and Shave.net is unable to resolve the problem, we may notify you via e-mail using the address associated with your Membership. It is important that you keep your information current with an accurate email address that you regularly check. If problems arise with your order that we cannot resolve, your order may be cancelled and we may not be able to process future Restock Boxes until the problem has been resolved.
3.5 Refunds
If you are dissatisfied with one of our Products for any reason, we will refund the amount paid for that Product in your most recent purchase. Refund requests must be made directly to us at shave@shave.net within 30 days of the date of shipment by Shave.net. We are not liable for Products that are damaged or lost in transit to Shave.net. Promptly following Shave.net’s receipt of your request (typically within ten (10) business days), Shave.net will credit the amount paid for the returned Product (less any shipping and handling costs/fees related to the original purchase, which are non-refundable) to the Payment Method you used to make the original purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Shave.net does not control when a specific credit card or payment method company processes a chargeback transaction. You are responsible for contacting your Payment Method company if you have questions about the status of the chargeback.
We will not provide a refund for a request that is received by Shave.net more than 30 days after the date of original shipment. We also do not provide a refund for returned Products that are damaged due to misuse, lack of care, mishandling, accident, abuse or other abnormal use.
3.6 Gift Cards
The risk of loss and title to gift cards passes to the purchaser upon our electronic transmission to the recipient or delivery to the carrier, whichever is applicable. Shave.net shall have the right to refuse service, suspend or terminate accounts or memberships or any related account(s), cancel orders or Box shipments, or recoup the amount of the Gift Card by charging the amount from the Payment Method supplied, in each case in its sole discretion, if Shave.net suspects a Gift Card is being redeemed and/or used in a fraudulent manner to make purchases on the Shave.net Services.

4. MEMBERSHIP TERMS AND CANCELLATION POLICY
4.1 Recurring Membership; Automatic Renewal
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT EACH MEMBERSHIP AUTOMATICALLY RENEWS UNLESS YOU CANCEL IT OR WE SUSPEND OR TERMINATE IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS.
Shave.net will automatically renew your Membership and charge your Payment Method depending on the Membership and/or Box shipping frequency chosen by you and, as authorized by you by agreeing to the automatic renewal of your Membership during the Member sign-up process.
Your Payment Method will be charged at least one full business day prior to your next Box shipping date. We will charge your Payment Method with the applicable cost for your Box, along with any shipping and handling costs and sales or similar taxes that may be charged with your Membership.
To avoid being charged, you must cancel your Membership in accordance with Section 4.3. We will continue to bill your Payment Method on a recurring basis (depending on the Membership and Box shipping frequency selected) until you cancel.
4.2 Pausing and Resuming Membership; Shipping Frequency
Members will be shipped a Box based on the shipping frequency and/or shipping date chosen in their account.
For some Members, Shave.net may offer the ability to temporarily pause their Memberships (“Pause Period”). During the Pause Period, Members will remain active members, but they will not receive any Shave.net Products. A Member’s Membership may be placed on a Pause Period for either a one, two, or three month period. During the Pause Period, Members will remain a member of Shave.net, continue to receive communications from Shave.net via email, but will not be charged any maintenance or membership fee. Members who are in a Pause Period may resume receiving Shave.net Products by logging into their account and resuming shipping either immediately or on their original bill date. You may email any questions about the Pause Period to us at shave@shave.net.
For Members who do not have the option to temporarily pause their Membership, Shave.net may offer such Members the ability to change their Box ship date. By default, Restock Boxes will be shipped every three (3) months. These Members can choose to decrease or increase their Box shipping frequency anywhere between one (1) and six (6) months through their Member account page. These Members can also choose a specific shipping date for their next Box that is anywhere between two (2) business days and up to six months away. Members that wish to retain their Membership but have their Box shipped less often than six months must log in to their Member account page at least one full business day prior to your next Box shipping date to extend the shipping date for an additional period (up to six months) for the next Box.
4.3 Membership Cancellation
You may cancel your Membership at any time from the Account page on the Shave.net website. To cancel a Membership, click on “Membership Settings” link at the bottom of the page, then follow instructions towards cancellation. Cancellation requests submitted in this manner must be received at least one full business day prior to your next Box shipping date to avoid being charged for that Box. Cancellation requests received by Shave.net through other channels may take up to five (5) business days to process. If you have any problems, please email us at shave@shave.net.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid by any court having competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms, which shall remain in full force and effect.

12. MANDATORY AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ACTION WAIVER
Please read this Section 12 (“Arbitration Agreement”) carefully. It is part of your contract with Shave.net and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to a customer’s satisfaction by writing to our customer service department at shave@shave.net or Shave.net, Attn: Customer Service, 4739 University Way NE #2015 Seattle, WA 98105. In the unlikely event that our customer service department is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction, the terms of this Section 12 govern dispute resolution between us.
Applicable to the United States: Any and all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action (including the interpretation and scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of the controversy, dispute, demand, counts, claim, or cause of action) between you and the Company or the Company’s employees, agents, successors, or assigns, shall exclusively be settled through binding and confidential arbitration, except that you or the Company may take claims to small claims court if the dispute qualifies for hearing by such a court. In addition, each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration and arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, APART FROM THE NARROW EXCEPTIONS ABOVE, YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT, INCLUDING RIGHTS TO RECEIVE A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY-GENERAL ACTION, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
Arbitration shall be subject to the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law, and shall be conducted by Judicial Arbitration Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures effective July 1, 2014 (the “JAMS Rules”) and as modified by this agreement to arbitrate. The JAMS Rules, including instructions for bringing arbitration, are available on its website at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration. The Minimum Standards are available at http://www.jamsadr.com/consumer-arbitration/.
You and the Company must abide by these rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action and the arbitrator shall not award class-wide relief; (b) the Company will pay its arbitration costs as required by JAMS rules, and in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, the Company will pay as much of your arbitration filing and hearing fees as the arbitrator deems is necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (c) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and (d) each side pays his, her or its own attorneys’ fees and costs unless the claim(s) at issue permit the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation costs, and in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.
With the exception of subpart (a) in the paragraph above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision were not contained. If, however, subpart (a) in the paragraph above is found invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute shall be exclusively brought in state or U.S. federal court in California.
Applicable to Canada: After any dispute arises, the parties involved in the dispute may agree to resolve the dispute using Arbitration. If the parties elect to use arbitration, disputes shall be referred to ADR Institute of Canada. For a copy of the procedure to file a Claim, or for other information about this organization, contact them as follows: www.adrcanada.ca.
