NO PURCHASE FOR RESALE

Civilized Nation Inc. Stores, including any consumer rights or policies offered in our stores, are intended solely for the benefit of end consumers, and therefore purchase of products for resale is strictly prohibited. Purchase for resale means the purchase of product by someone who intends to resell the product to others (consumers, businesses or any third party).  If Civilized Nation Inc. determines that a purchase or order is intended for resale, we reserve the right, in its sole discretion, and as it relates to such purchase or order, to (1) suspend the application of any policy that provides a right or benefit intended for direct to consumer purchases; and (2) take any action to hinder such purchase or order (and deter future purchases or orders), including without limitation, to restrict sales to any consumer, consumer account, or member account, cancel orders, charge restocking fees, impose purchase quantity limits, decline to issue refunds or take returns, deny access to any of our stores, and/or suspend or close any account.  

HOW TO PURCHASE– DIGITAL WEB STORE

To complete your purchase at our Digital Store, you must provide your full name, e-mail address, valid delivery address, and payment method to place an online order. You may need to adjust your device settings or set your browser to accept functional cookies and pop-ups in order to be able to use all the functionalities of a Digital Store, which includes designing customized items, adding items to your shopping bag and submitting your order. 

When you submit an order, we will send an email acknowledging receipt of your order (“Order Confirmation”).  Our acceptance of your order takes place when the products are shipped to you; we will send a second email confirming that the products have been shipped. If we are unable to supply you with a product, we will inform you of this in writing and will not process the order for that product. 

OUR RIGHT TO REJECT YOUR PURCHASE OR CANCEL AN ORDER

Sale of products and fulfillment of all orders at a Civilized Nation Store is subject to availability and our discretion in managing inventory. We explicitly reserve the right to limit, decline or reject any sales and orders for any reason, without being liable for any damage or costs other than repayment of any amount received from you in relation to such sale or order, in situations including but not limited to:

• an Event Outside Our Control (as defined below);
• the product you seek to purchase is not available or in stock;
• your address, billing information or form of payment is incorrect or cannot be verified;
• your order is flagged by our security systems as potentially fraudulent, or an order placed with automated ordering software or technology;
• there is evidence that your order (single or cumulative orders) was purchased for the purpose of resale, tax evasion, or other fraudulent purpose;
• your order was flagged for freight forwarding or shipping to an address or service provider that enables or allows foreign export or unlawful avoidance of sales tax;
• your purchase or order exceeds product purchase limits (quantity and/or dollar amount);
• your account and/or purchase history shows an excessively high volume of returns;
• there is evidence that you are not eligible to make purchases; or
• in the event of misspelling, pricing or other errors or mistakes at the CIVILIZED NATION Store(s) where you wish to order or purchase.

Civilized Nation will determine whether any of the above events have occurred in its sole discretion.

RIGHT TO ASSIGN, NO WAIVERS, SEVERABILITY

• Civilized Nation Inc may assign its rights and duties under these Terms to any party at any time without notice to you, unless notice is required by applicable law, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under these Terms. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in writing. 
• Civilized Nation's failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of these Terms is not a waiver of any of these Terms or Civilized Nation’s rights.  If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you. You should always assume these Terms apply.
• If any court or relevant authority decides that any provision of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of these Terms shall continue to be enforceable.
