7. PRODUCTS
We do our best to describe every product or service offered on our Service as accurately as possible.

In the event of any errors relating to the pricing or specifications, Company shall have the right to refuse or cancel any orders in its sole discretion. If we charged your credit card or other account prior to our cancellation, we will issue a credit to your account in the amount of the charge. Additional Terms may apply. If a product or service you purchased from Company is not as described, your sole remedy is to cancel the purchase and receive a credit for the purchase price.
All physical products purchased from the Service are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon delivery to the carrier.
8. CUSTOMER SUPPORT
If you have any questions or comments, please send an e-mail to us here. You acknowledge that the provision of support is at Company’s sole discretion and that we have no obligation to provide you with customer support of any kind.

You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
9. THIRD PARTY SERVICES
Our Service contains content from and hyperlinks to websites, locations, platforms, and services operated and owned by third parties (“Third Party Services”).

You waive any right to pursue an action on a class-wide basis against us and may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim against us as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action.

THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and Company in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND COMPANY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT YOU MAY CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY IN DECIDING TO ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE.

In any circumstances where the parties litigate in court, these Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Iowa, excluding its conflict of law rules. You further expressly consent and agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of a court of competent jurisdiction located in West Des Moines, IA.
12. WAIVER OF INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN AN INJUNCTION OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF OF ANY KIND, SUCH AS ANY COURT OR OTHER ACTION THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH OR PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OR EXPLOITATION OF ANY WEBSITE, APPLICATION, CONTENT, SUBMISSIONS, PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNED, LICENSED, USED OR CONTROLLED BY COMPANY OR A LICENSOR OF COMPANY.
13. UPDATES TO TERMS
We reserve the right, at any time in our sole discretion, to modify or replace any part of these Terms and any applicable Additional Terms, without prior notice. You agree that we may notify you of any updated Terms and any applicable Additional Terms by posting them on the Service so that they are accessible via a link from the home page, and/or to send you an e-mail to the last e-mail address you provided to us. All such changes are effective immediately when we post them, or such later date as may be specified in the notice of updated Terms and any applicable Additional Terms. If you object to any such changes, your sole recourse is to cease using the Service.

This information is automatically collected through cookies and other tracking technologies incorporated into our Service, as described below:
- Cookies. Cookies are browser-based text files which are dropped on your browser when you visit a website, open or click on an email, or interact with an advertisement. There are various types of cookies, including session cookies (which are cookies that expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which are cookies that do not expire until a set expiration date or you manually delete them). Cookies may be first party (which are cookies served directly by us) or third party (which are cookies served by third parties we work with).
- Pixels. Pixels (also known as web beacons) are code embedded in a service. There are various types of pixels, including image pixels (which are one-pixel transparent images) and JavaScript pixels (which contain JavaScript code). Pixels are often used in conjunction with cookies. When you access a service that contains a pixel, the pixel may permit us or a third party to collect information from your browser or device, or to drop or read cookies on your browser.
- App technologies. App technologies are technologies included in apps that are not browser-based like cookies. For example, our apps may include Software Development Kits (SDKs), which are tools released by third parties that provide certain functionality. When you access our apps, these technologies may permit us or a third party to collect information from your browser or device.
- Device fingerprinting. Device fingerprinting is the process of analyzing and combining sets of data from your device, such as JavaScript objects and installed fonts, to create a “fingerprint” and uniquely identify your browser or device.
We use these tracking technologies for a variety of purposes, including to help make our Service work, personalize your browsing experience, prevent fraud and assist with security, perform measurement and analytics, offer abandon cart functionality, and provide advertising (including targeted advertising).
We also use the following technologies in connection with the Service.
- Precise location technologies. With your consent, we may get access to precise location technologies on your device (such as GPS or Bluetooth) and collect precise location data. We use precise location data for purposes of verifying your device’s location and delivering or restricting relevant content and advertising based on that location.
- Voice processing technologies. With your consent, we may get access to the microphone on your device and collect audio to effectuate an instruction or request by you. We only maintain audio long enough to complete your instruction or request and then immediately delete it. We may use non-audio data associated with the collection for additional purposes such as data analytics and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
To exercise choice around tracking technologies, see Your Privacy Choices below.
Information from Our Business Relationships.
Through our business relationships with you, we collect your contact identifiers and other information relating to you and your business. This information is not subject to this Privacy Policy except as required by applicable law.
Information from Other Sources.
We also collect information from other sources. The categories of other sources from which we collect information include:
- Business partners that offer co-branded services, sell or distribute our products, or engage in joint marketing or promotional activities.
- Third party vendors and related parties we work with in connection with receiving analytics, advertising, security, and fraud prevention services.
- Social media platforms with which you interact. For example, when you engage with our content on social media (such as through our brand page or direct messages), we may collect information such as your contact identifiers and any comments you provide. We may also receive additional information from the social media platform that you have authorized the platform to disclose to us. If you publicly reference our Service on social media (such as by tagging us or using a hashtag associated with us in a post), we may use your reference on or in connection with our Service.
- Third party integrations that you connect to the Service. For example, if you choose to log-in to the Service through your Meta or Apple account, we receive information that you have authorized to be disclosed to us.
- Data providers, such as licensors of private and public databases.

Information We Infer.
We infer new information from other information we collect, including to generate information about your likely preferences or other characteristics.
Sensitive Information.
Some of the information we collect may be considered sensitive under applicable law. See additional disclosures in your region for details.
3. Purposes for Collection and Use.
Our purposes for collecting and using information include:
- Providing services. We collect and use information to provide services to you, including to operate the Service, establish and maintain your account, and provide support.
- Personalizing your experience. We collect and use information to personalize your experience and show you content we believe you will find interesting.
- Communications. We collect and use information to communicate with you about updates, security alerts, changes to policies, and other transactional messages. We also collect and use information to personalize and deliver marketing communications to you, including by email, and, where you opt-in, text and push notification.
- Analytics. We collect and use information to understand trends, usage, and activities, for example through surveys you respond to and tracking technologies that we incorporate into the Service (such as Google Analytics).
- Advertising. We collect and use information to advertise our products and services. Various third parties such as ad agencies, ad networks, publishers, social media platforms, and technology providers may be involved in this process. For example, we place ads on third party publisher websites and social media platforms. These ads incorporate tracking technologies to help serve the ads, measure their performance, detect ad fraud, limit the frequency of ads shown, and provide insights. If you visit our Service after seeing an ad on a third party service, tracking technologies on our Service help us attribute conversions and determine how effectively we use our ad budgets.
Some of the advertising we engage in may be “targeted advertising,” which is the practice of showing you more relevant or personalized ads based on your activity collected over time and across non-affiliated services. Targeted advertising often involves us incorporating third party tracking technology into our Service or providing (often hashed) contact or device identifiers to a third party, which then matches common factor between our data and their data (or a partner’s data) to serve ads to you or individuals like you. For example, we incorporate the Meta pixel on our website to serve ads to audiences created by Meta based on the data we provide.
We also use audience modeling services, where we and a partner each provide (often hashed) data to a technology provider. The technology provider then matches common factors between our and the partner’s data to allow us to gain insights into audience overlap and campaign performance. - Promotions. When you voluntarily enter a promotion, we collect and use information as set out in the official rules that govern the promotion as well as for administrative purposes and as required by law. By entering a promotion, you agree to the official rules that govern that promotion, and that, except where prohibited by applicable law, we, the sponsor, and related entities may use your name, voice and/or likeness in advertising or marketing materials.
- Improvements. We collect and use information to develop and improve our services.
- Security and enforcement. We collect and use information to prevent, detect, investigate, and address fraud, breach of policies or terms, or threats or harm.
- At your direction or with your consent. We collect and use information for additional purposes where you direct us to use it in a certain way or with notice to you and your consent.
- Non-personal information. Sometimes we anonymize or deidentify information so it is no longer considered personal information under applicable law. Where we deidentify information, we commit to maintain and use the deidentified information in deidentified form and not attempt to reidentify it. We may use non-personal information for any purpose to the extent permitted by applicable law.
To exercise choice around our collection and use, see Your Privacy Choices below.
4. Disclosure.
We disclose the information we collect for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. The categories of persons to whom we disclose information include:
- Service providers. Many of the third parties we work with are service providers that collect and process information on our behalf. Service providers perform services for us such as payment processing, data analytics, marketing and advertising, website hosting, and technical support. To the extent required by law, we contractually prohibit our service providers from processing information they collect on our behalf for purposes other than performing services for us, although we may permit them to use non-personal information for any purpose to the extent permitted by applicable law.
- Third party vendors and related parties. Some of the third parties we work with independently control the purposes and means of processing your information. For example, we disclose information to ad networks, technology providers, and other third parties that help provide targeted advertising. For these third parties, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with and consult their policies and terms of use.
- Business partners. We disclose information to our business partners in connection with offering co-branded services, selling or distributing our products, or engaging in joint marketing or promotional activities.

- The public. We disclose information you make public, such as information in your profile or that you post on public boards. Please think carefully before making information public as you are solely responsible for any information you make public. Once you have posted information, you may not be able to edit or delete such information, subject to any rights you have under applicable law.
- Recipients in a merger or acquisition. We disclose information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any proposed or actual merger, purchase, sale or any other type of acquisition or business combination of all or any portion of our assets, or transfer of all or a portion of our business to another business.
- Recipients for security and enforcement. We disclose information to comply with the law or other legal process, and where required, in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. We also disclose information to protect the rights, property, life, health, security and safety of us, the Service or anyone else.
- Recipients at your direction or with your consent. We disclose information where you direct us to or with notice to you and your consent.
