FURTHER DESCRIPTION OF Cholestatrim®

Buyer warrants an understanding that the Buyer has no license, permission or right to duplicate the Cholestatrim® product in any form or to sell it, distribute it or redistribute it, whether for profit or not for profit, to any person or entity for any reason.

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE BUYER

The Buyer must pay the full consideration for the Cholestatrim®  product that the Seller requires as the total price of the product. This consideration includes not only the purchase price, but other obligations that the Buyer accepts as well as potential rights the Buyer agrees to forego. By accepting this Purchase Agreement, the Buyer agrees to receive continuing follow-up contact from the Seller including email, mail, newsletters, product updates, product recall notices, product improvements, and possibly telephone calls from the Seller. Buyer agrees to post-sale contact from joint venture partners of the Seller or from others who have a commercial relationship with the Seller. Buyer agrees that all personal information about the buyer or his or her buying habits and preferences, including address and phone number, may be placed in a database owned by the Seller and further agrees that this information will not be rented or sold to third parties. However, Buyer shall at all times be fully empowered to sever contact with the Seller by notification using the 'unsubscribe' link in solicitations. Moreover, the Buyer retains the right to refuse specific contact with some third party solicitors and maintain it with others. The Buyer's agreement to accept solicitation and contact may be reduced, enhanced, limited or terminated by notification to anyone contacting the Buyer. The burden is on the Buyer to prove that such communication was made to and received by the person making contact. Buyer agrees that Seller is not liable for communications made to the Buyer by parties unrelated to this purchase even though referred to Buyer by the Seller. Buyer accepts full responsibility for limiting unsolicited contact and Buyer understands that he or she retains all rights to directly restrict communication or solicitation from any party, including the Seller.

The Buyer agrees to allow the Seller to collect, store, and use for marketing purposes all information collected from, provided by or otherwise ascertained by electronic or other means from the Buyer. The Buyer, specifically, and as part of the consideration paid for this product, waives all right to access, retrieve, or control such information except that the Buyer retains the right to restrict contact as described previously.

The Buyer understands that cookies will be placed on his or her hard drive that will provide information to the Seller and which are necessary for delivering an email related to Cholestatrim®  or other products and which will be able to determine if you retain the right and desire to receive shipments of the product. Buyer understands that these cookies or other computer codes will reside on the hard drive and will communicate at times with the Seller's computer and thereby transmit and receive information.

 

Buyers living in locations that require custom duties and/or VAT taxes to be collected understand that, unless custom duties and/or VAT taxes are collected at the point of sale by the Seller, the Buyer remains entirely responsible for payment of any/all custom duties and taxes at the time the product is delivered pursuant to Buyer’s instructions. If, for any reason, it should happen that the Seller's courier or freight account is charged for custom duties and/or VAT taxes, instead of the Buyer paying the referenced charges, then the Buyer hereby authorizes the Seller to bill the Buyer's credit card for said charges or for the return of goods if they are refused at the point of destination.

CREDIT CARD CHARGES AND CREDIT CARD FRAUD PENALTIES

Buyer warrants that he or she is over 18 years of age, not subject to the Child Online Privacy Act, is of legal age to enter into contractual agreements in the state in which he or she is present when he or she completes any purchase of Cholestatrim®  and is the true and authorized owner of the credit card used to complete any purchases of Cholestatrim®.

Any Buyer who attempts to perpetrate a fraud upon Seller involving the use of a credit card herewith gives authorization for the Seller to access all credit and personal information pertaining to the Buyer from any source, including credit reporting agencies, and Buyer also authorizes the Seller to discover all relevant information from any source about the fraudulent practices of the Buyer and to reveal such information to others, including, but not limited to, credit reporting agencies, credit card companies, merchant service providers, and/or law enforcement agencies.

Buyer agrees that if he/she uses trickery or deceit to receive more than one refund, or if he/she causes a fraudulent dispute claim that results in a chargeback against the Seller's account, that the Seller is authorized to re-charge the Buyer's credit card that was used for the original purchase to the extent that will make the Seller whole. Buyer agrees that, in addition to paying actual damages to Seller, Buyer will pay Seller liquidated damages in an amount equivalent to $10,000 U.S.  for each and every separate fraudulent transaction committed by Buyer against Seller and/or Sellers agents, servants, employees and affiliates or others to the detriment of Seller or Seller’s reputation.
