March 2023

These terms and conditions (these “Terms”) are entered into between you and Swehl Inc. (“Swehl”), and govern your use of (a) www.swehl.com and all other websites operated by Swehl (including any content and functionality available on such websites) (each, a “Site,” and collectively, the “Sites”), and (b) any products or services you order through the Sites (collectively, “Products”).

Please read these Terms carefully before you use the Sites, including ordering any Products through the Sites. By using the Sites, you agree to be bound and abide by these Terms. If you do not want to agree to these Terms, you are not permitted to access or use the Sites. If you breach these Terms at any time, your right to access the Sites will be terminated.

The Sites are offered and available only to users who are 18 years of age or older. By using the Sites, you represent and warrant that you are 18 years of age or older.

THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.

1. Use of the Sites.

a. Accessing the Sites. Swehl reserves the right to takedown or change the Sites, and any service or material Swehl provides on the Sites, at Swehl’s sole discretion without notice. Swehl will not be liable if a Site is unavailable at any time for any reason. From time-to-time, Swehl may restrict access to some parts of a Site, or an entire Site(s), including to registered users.

d. User Contributions. The Sites may contain message boards, forums, and other interactive features that allow users to post, submit, or transmit (collectively, “post”) content or materials on or through the Sites that can be viewed by other users (“User Contributions''). Any User Contribution you post to the Sites will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary. By posting a User Contribution, you grant Swehl and its affiliates, service providers and retailers, and Swehl’s and those parties’ respective licensees, successors, and assigns the right to use, reproduce, modify, perform, display, distribute, and otherwise disclose to third parties the User Contribution for Swehls’s business purposes. You represent and warrant that you own or control all rights in and to your User Contributions and have the right to grant the license granted above. User Contributions must not: (i) contain any material that is defamatory, obscene, hateful, harassing, violent, inflammatory, or otherwise objectionable, (ii) promote any unlawful conduct, sexually explicit or pornographic material, violence, or discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age, (iii) infringe any intellectual property rights, rights of publicity, privacy rights, or other rights of any third party, (iv) misrepresent your identity or affiliation with any third party, or misrepresent that they emanate from or are endorsed by Swehl or any third party, or otherwise be deceptive, (v) involve commercial activities or sales, such as contests, sweepstakes, and other sales promotions or advertising unless pre-approved by Swehl in writing, or (vi) violate these Terms, our Privacy Policy, or any Applicable Laws. You are fully responsible for your User Contributions, including their legality, accuracy, and appropriateness.

e. Enforcement. Swehl has the right to, in Swehl’s sole discretion: (i) remove, refuse to post, or take any other action with respect to a User Contribution for any reason, including if Swehl believes that a User Contribution violates these Terms, infringes a third party’s rights, threatens the safety of a Site’s users or the public, or could create liability for Swehl, (ii) take appropriate legal action (including without limitation, referral to law enforcement) for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Sites, and otherwise cooperate fully with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing Swehl to disclose the identity or other information of anyone posting any materials on or through the Sites, (iii) terminate or suspend your access to all or part of the Sites for any reason, including without limitation, any violation of these Terms, and (iv) disclose your identity or other information about you to any third party who claims that your User Contribution violates their or another third party’s rights.

f. Monitoring. Notwithstanding the terms of subsection (e) above, Swehl does not review User Contributions before they are posted on the Sites, and cannot ensure prompt removal of an objectionable User Contribution after it has been posted. Accordingly, Swehl is not responsible or liable to any third party for the content or accuracy of any User Contributions, and assumes no liability for any action or inaction regarding transmissions, communications, or content provided by any user or third party.

4. Changes to these Terms. Swehl may update these Terms from time-to-time at its sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when Swehl posts them. Your continued use of the Sites following the posting of revised Terms means that you accept and agree to the changes. Please check this page from time-to-time so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you.

5. Indemnification. You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Swehl and its affiliates, licensors, and service providers, and all such parties’ respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to (a) your violation of these Terms, or (b) your use of the Sites, including, but not limited to, your User Contributions.

6. Unsolicited Idea Policy. Swehl loves great ideas, no matter where they come from - some fan-favorite Swehl products were developed with partners.

If Swehl likes your Submission, Swehl may respond to begin discussions about a possible business relationship. However, when you submit a Submission, you acknowledge and agree that: (a) Swehl is under no obligation to respond to your Submission or keep your Submission confidential; and (b) Swehl may be developing or may later develop, manufacture, and/or distribute products, product features, concepts, or techniques that are similar to or compete with ideas incorporated in your Submission, without any compensation, liability, or other obligation to you. You represent and warrant that your Submission does not include any third party’s confidential information, proprietary know-how, trade secrets, or other intellectual property.

7. Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.

a. YOU AND SWEHL ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND Swehl ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF A SITE AND/OR YOUR PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS THROUGH A SITE WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.

b. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this Section. (The AAA Rules are available at adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that this arbitration provision or these Terms are void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Swehl will be responsible for paying any individual consumer's arbitration/arbitrator fees. You may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide Swehl with written notice of your intention to do so within 60 days of your purchase or use of the Site giving rise to the claim (as applicable) by emailing hello@swehl.com. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.

c. You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER YOU NOR SWEHL WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.

8. Miscellaneous.

a. Governing Law. All matters relating to the Sites, Products, and these Terms, and any resulting or related dispute or claim (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, the Sites, Products, or these Terms shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of California, in each case located in Los Angeles, CA. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.

b. Waiver and Severability. No waiver by Swehl of any term or condition set out in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Swehl to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect.

c. No Assignment or Third Party Beneficiaries. You are not permitted to assign any of your rights or delegate any of your obligations under these Terms without Swehl’s prior written consent. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this section is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves you of any of your obligations under these Terms. These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than you.
