(“Preemadonna”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) (collectively, the “Services”).
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND PREEMADONNA THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 20 “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION.
1. Agreement to Terms. By using our Services, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to be bound by these Terms, do not use the Services.
2. Privacy Policy. Please review our Privacy Policy, which also governs your use of the Services, for information on how we collect, use and share your information.
3. Changes to these Terms or the Services. We may update the Terms from time to time in our sole discretion. If we do, we will let you know by posting the updated Terms on the Sites, to the Apps and/or may also send other communications. It’s important that you review the Terms whenever we update them or you use the Services. If you continue to use the Services after we have posted updated Terms it means that you accept and agree to the changes. If you do not agree to be bound by the changes, you may not use the Services anymore. Because our Services are evolving over time we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion.

If you are over 13 years of age but under the age of majority in your respective jurisdiction, you hereby represent and warrant that your parent or legal guardian has read these Terms, and accepts them on your behalf. Parents and legal guardians are responsible for the acts of their minor children when using the Services, whether or not the parent or guardian has authorized such acts.

It is important that you provide us with accurate, complete and current account information and keep this information up to date. If you do not, we might have to suspend or terminate your account. To protect your account, keep the account details and password confidential, and notify us right away of any unauthorized use. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account.
5. Sale of Products.
(a) Pilot Program Pre-Ordering. Preemadonna accepts pre-orders for the Nailbot from participants of the Preemadonna pilot program. Pre-orders are considered Orders for purposes of these Terms. As per our pre-order shipping pledge, if you change your mind after placing a pre-order, you can cancel your Order at any time before you receive your Nailbot Order Confirmation for a full refund. Once the product has been shipped, your Order is complete and you will not be able to cancel your Order and/or receive a refund for your purchase at any time.
(b) Ordering. Preemadonna accepts orders (“Orders”) for the Nailbot, Services and any other products, including gift cards and accessories (e.g., cartridges, polishes and nail care consumables) that we may offer through the Sites. By placing an order on a Site, you are offering to purchase the relevant product(s) on and subject to these Terms. No such order will be binding on us unless and until we accept your order and send you a confirmation by email (“Order Confirmation”), which will confirm the products purchased and price, and will specify a shipment date (“Order Confirmation Shipment Date”). You understand that availability of products cannot be guaranteed and that the products, associated prices and any other information related to such products and provided by Preemadonna via the Services are subject to corrections and changes without notice. Preemadonna reserves the right to revoke any stated offer and correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions.
(c) Shipping and Delivery. For delivery of the Nailbot and any other goods ordered, we will ship the products to the address as indicated by you during the checkout process. All gift cards and software/Apps will be either delivered electronically to the email address as indicated by you during the checkout process or made available to you for download. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, we will pack the products in accordance with Preemadonna’s standard practices. Unless you provide us with specific instructions, we will select the carrier. Title to the products and risk of loss will pass to you upon our delivery of the products to the carrier. You acknowledge that all scheduled shipment dates, including the Order Confirmation Shipment Date, are estimates only. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to meet the scheduled shipment dates, but in no event will we be liable for any loss, damage, or penalty resulting from any delay in shipment or delivery, nor will the carrier be deemed an agent of Preemadonna. If you receive a damaged or incomplete shipment of products, please contact us at contact@preemadonna.com. We will have the right to delay or suspend shipment of the products if you fail to make any payment as provided in these Terms.
(d) Returns. All sales are final and we do not allow returns of products. However, if you are unhappy with any product, please contact us at contact@preemadonna.com.
(e) Pricing and Payment. We reserve the right to change the prices and available products at any time. Quantities of some products may be limited and stock cannot always be guaranteed. The prices for the products will be as specified on the Sites on the date you place your order and in an Order Confirmation. When you place an order with Preemadonna (a “Transaction”), you expressly authorize us (or our third-party payment processor, Shopify) to charge you for such Transaction. We may ask you to supply additional information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card and your email and postal addresses for billing and notification (such information, “Payment Information”). You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use all payment method(s) represented by any such Payment Information. When you initiate a Transaction, you authorize us to provide your Payment Information to third parties so we can complete your Transaction and to charge your payment method for the type of Transaction you have selected (plus any applicable taxes and other charges).

Without limiting the foregoing, you may cancel your Subscription at any time prior to the start of the next Subscription period, in which case your Subscription will terminate at the end of the month. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE PAID FOR THE THEN CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE TIME OF CANCELLATION.

(d) Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we will not seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration we’ll pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and will not seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
(e) Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 20(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
(f) Class Action Waiver. YOU AND PREEMADONNA AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.
(g) Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 20(f) of these Terms (“Class Action Waiver”), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.
