SUBSCRIPTIONS

Some of the products and services available through or in connection with our websites require you to purchase a subscription to have certain products shipped to you on a monthly schedule. The price that we will charge you for subscriptions is based on a tiered pricing structure that depends on the length of the initial subscription period – monthly, semi-annual (6 months), and annual (12 months). We reserve the right to change a product’s price or the tiered pricing structure at any time, with appropriate notice to you.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT EACH SUBSCRIPTION AUTOMATICALLY RENEWS UNLESS YOU CANCEL IT.

You hereby authorize us and our merchant provider(s) to charge your credit card, debit card, or other acceptable method of payment in advance for all applicable fees incurred by you or on your behalf in connection with the product or service you have chosen to purchase. You are solely responsible for all charges, fees, duties, taxes, and assessments arising out of any use of your account by you or anyone else using your account. We reserve the right to terminate any account at any time for any reason. For monthly subscriptions, your payment method will be charged on the 7th calendar day of each following month. For semi-annual subscriptions your payment method will be charged on the 7th calendar day of the month following the initial 6-month period. For annual subscriptions, your payment method will be charged on the 7th calendar day of the month following the initial one-year period.

To avoid being charged for the next subscription period, you must cancel or pause your subscription before the 7th calendar day of the month in which your subscription renews. We will continue to bill your Payment Method on a recurring basis until you cancel or pause. Cancellation simply avoids the recurring charge and we do not issue refunds for the remaining months of a pre-paid semi-annual or annual subscription.

If you have created an account, you may cancel your subscription from your account located at https://www.puravidabracelets.com/account. Click on the “Manage Subscriptions” link, then follow instructions towards cancellation.

Pausing Your Monthly Subscription

If you have purchased a subscription that renews each month, and is not prepaid, we offer the ability to pause your subscription on a monthly basis at no additional charge. You will not be charged for the months that you elect to pause; so long as you pause your subscription before the 7th calendar day of that month. You can pause your monthly subscription by simply contacting us at info@puravidabracelets.com to let us know you want to skip that month’s pack. Please note: We do not offer live phone support at this time, but if you leave us a voicemail with your name and email address, we will follow up with you within 24 hours. If you have an account with us, you can log into your account at https://www.puravidabracelets.com/account and click on the “Manage Subscriptions” link, then follow instructions for pausing/skipping shipments. You must notify us through any of the methods mentioned above (by calling during business hours, emailing us or logging into your account) that you are skipping prior to the 7th calendar day of each month you want to pause/skip. Your monthly subscription will automatically renew and continue in the following month, unless you pause your subscription again following the simple steps listed above, or if you chose certain months to pause/skip. At this time, we do not offer the option to pause/skip shipments for annual and semi-annual subscriptions.

If you have any problems, you can also live chat with our support staff by clicking the “Help” link at the bottom right hand corner of the screen on our homepage or visiting this FAQ link on cancelling and pausing your subscription: https://support.puravidabracelets.com/hc/en-us/articles/215652543-Can-I-cancel-my-Pura-Vida-Monthly-Club-subscription.

REWARDS PROGRAMS

We offer a rewards program called The Shore Club ("Program") through www.puravidabracelets.com that is open to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States and the District of Columbia. The Program allows an account holder to accumulate and redeem points called “Shore Dollars”, on an individual basis and solely for your own account.

In order to be able to access and redeem Shore Dollars you have earned; you must first register for an account through the websites.

Membership Tiers

Membership in The Shore Club has 3 membership tiers.

First Tier – The #PVInsider Tier: By creating an account through the websites, you will be automatically enrolled in the #PVInsider membership tier. In addition to earning Shore Dollars, while you are a #PVInsider, you are included in an insider mailing list.

Second Tier – The #PVIP Tier: By spending between USD$100.00 and USD$199.00 on Qualifying Purchases, you will be enrolled in the #PVIP membership tier. In addition to earning Shore Dollars, while you are a #PVIP you qualify for exclusive promotions, early access to certain sales and promotions and are included in an insider mailing list.

Third Tier - The #PVA-Lister Tier: By spending USD$200.00 or more on Qualifying Purchases, you will be enrolled in the #PVA-Lister membership tier. In addition to earning Shore Dollars, while you are a #PVA-Lister you qualify for exclusive promotions, early access to certain sales and promotions, free shipping on all orders and are included in an insider mailing list.

Your membership tier is determined by the amount you spend on Qualifying Purchases (as defined below) within a rolling 12-month period. For example, if you spend $200 on Qualifying Purchases, you will be enrolled as a #PVA-Lister for a period of 12 months from the original date of purchase. If you do not spend at least an additional USD$200.00 on Qualifying Purchases within 12 months of entering the #PVA-Lister tier, then your membership tier will be automatically decreased to the corresponding tier based on the amount you actually spent on Qualifying Purchases in that period.

Earning Rewards Points Through Qualifying Purchases

When you shop on the websites your account will be credited with an amount of Shore Dollars based on your current membership tier, as follows:

#PVInsider members earn 1 Shore Dollar for every USD$1.00 spent on any “eligible product” that is purchased and not returned ("Qualifying Purchase").

#PVIP members earn 1.5 Shore Dollars for every USD$1.00 spent Qualifying Purchases.

#PVA-Lister members earn 2 Shore Dollars or every USD$1.00 spent on Qualifying Purchases.

The amount of Shore Dollars earned from a Qualifying Purchase is calculated based on the subtotal, after all discounts have been applied. You do not earn any Shore Dollars for amounts spent in connection with applicable taxes, and shipping and handling. When products are returned for a refund to the original payment method, Shore Dollars will be deducted from your account for the amount of return, net of taxes, shipping and handling.

“Eligible products” include regular priced merchandise purchased by an individual consumer directly from the websites, and specifically does not include (i) fundraising products; (ii) custom bracelets or products; (iii) engraved bracelets or products; (iv) promotions (e.g. giveaways, holiday sales, etc.). For the avoidance of doubt, no Shore Dollars are earned for purchase of products at bulk, products purchased by or for any organization or entity (i.e. fundraising events, corporate or business accounts, retail or wholesale accounts, etc.). We reserve the right, and you hereby grant us the right to review account activity for purchase patterns that fall outside the intended use of the Program. We have the sole discretion to determine whether your purchase patterns violate these Terms and if we make such a determination, then your Shore Dollars will be forfeited and your account may be suspended or terminated at our sole discretion.

GENERAL

Modification

We may modify these Terms at any time. We will post the changes on our website with the effective date. Your continued use of our website or our services after the date of any such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of these Terms.

Governing Law

Terms will be governed by the laws of Indiana without regard to conflict of law provisions. With respect to any disputes not subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth above, you and Pura Vida agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the local courts located in Allen County and the federal courts located in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana. Pura Vida may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, without restriction.

No Waiver

The failure of Pura Vida to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Severability

In case any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not be affected and remain in full effect. The parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision.

Claim Limitations

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of the use of our services or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; DISPUTES. YOU AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES, ACTIONS, AND CLAIMS RELATING TO OUR COLLECTION, USE, OR SHARING OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AND ALL MATTERS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE AND OUR SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE SITE'S PRIVACY NOTICE (EXCEPT FOR LEGAL ACTION TAKEN TO SEEK AN INJUNCTION OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF RELATED THERETO OR CLAIMS RELATED TO THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF YOUR OR OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS) (COLLECTIVELY “DISPUTE”) WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (FAA), FEDERAL ARBITRATION LAW, AND LAWS OF THE STATE OF INDIANA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OF LAW PRINCIPLES. YOU FURTHERMORE AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT, EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY ASSERT CLAIMS IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT IF YOUR CLAIMS QUALIFY. YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE (OR PARTICIPATE IN AS A PARTY OR CLASS MEMBER) ALL DISPUTES IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY. INSTEAD, ALL DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, WHOSE DECISION WILL BE FINAL EXCEPT FOR A LIMITED RIGHT OF APPEAL UNDER THE FAA. ANY COURT WITH JURISDICTION OVER THE PARTIES MAY ENFORCE THE ARBITRATOR’S AWARD.

IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE, YOU OR PURA VIDA MUST GIVE THE OTHER A NOTICE OF DISPUTE, WHICH IS A WRITTEN STATEMENT THAT SETS FORTH THE NAME, ADDRESS AND CONTACT INFORMATION OF THE PARTY GIVING IT, THE FACTS GIVING RISE TO THE DISPUTE, AND THE RELIEF REQUESTED. YOU MUST SEND ANY NOTICE OF DISPUTE BY U.S. MAIL TO PURA VIDA, 7979 IVANHOE AVE. SUITE 400, LA JOLLA, CA 92037, ATTN: PRIVACY COMPLIANCE OFFICE, SUBJECT: DISPUTE NOTICE). YOU AND PURA VIDA WILL ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE THROUGH INFORMAL NEGOTIATION WITHIN 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE THE NOTICE OF DISPUTE IS SENT. AFTER 60 DAYS, YOU OR PURA VIDA MAY COMMENCE ARBITRATION. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO WAIT 60 DAYS TO FILE A SMALL CLAIMS ACTION.

THE ARBITRATION WILL BE CONDUCTED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (AAA) UNDER ITS RULES, INCLUDING THE AAA'S SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER-RELATED DISPUTES. THE AAA'S RULES ARE AVAILABLE AT WWW.ADR.ORG OR BY CALLING 1-800-778-7879. PAYMENT OF ALL FILING, ADMINISTRATION AND ARBITRATOR FEES (“ARBITRATION FEES”) WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE AAA'S RULES. YOU AGREE TO COMMENCE ARBITRATION ONLY IN YOUR COUNTY OF RESIDENCE OR ALLEN COUNTY INDIANA. WE WILL REIMBURSE TO YOU ARBITRATION FEES YOU PAID FOR CLAIMS TOTALING LESS THAN $10,000 UNLESS THE ARBITRATOR DETERMINES THE CLAIMS ARE FRIVOLOUS. PURA VIDA WILL NOT SEEK ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS IN ARBITRATION UNLESS THE ARBITRATOR DETERMINES THE CLAIMS ARE FRIVOLOUS. YOU MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE THE ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BY TELEPHONE, BASED ON WRITTEN SUBMISSION, OR IN PERSON BY FOLLOWING THE AAA RULES. IN A DISPUTE INVOLVING $10,000 OR LESS, ANY HEARING WILL BE TELEPHONIC UNLESS THE ARBITRATOR FINDS GOOD CAUSE TO HOLD AN IN-PERSON HEARING INSTEAD. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES TO YOU INDIVIDUALLY AS A COURT COULD.

YOU AGREE THAT THE MAKING OF CLAIMS OR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU AGREE THAT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED INDIVIDUALLY IN THE FORUM DESIGNATED IN THIS SECTION, WITHOUT RESORT TO ANY FORM OF CLASS ACTION.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY DISPUTE TO WHICH THIS SECTION APPLIES MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR IN ARBITRATION WITH THE AAA. THE ONE-YEAR PERIOD BEGINS WHEN THE CLAIM OR NOTICE OF DISPUTE COULD FIRST BE FILED. IF SUCH A DISPUTE IS NOT FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR, IT'S PERMANENTLY BARRED.

IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
