7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES; LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. By using this Site, you acknowledge and agree as follows:

  • (i) THIS SITE AND ALL USER CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SWIMOUTLET AND ITS SUPPLIERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THIS SITE AND ALL USER CONTENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND WARRANTIES OF TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. SWIMOUTLET AND ITS SUPPLIERS DO NOT WARRANT THAT: (A) THIS SITE AND ALL USER CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE, ERROR-FREE, UP TO DATE, COMPLETE, OR USEFUL, OR WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, OR WILL BE AVAILABLE AT ANY PARTICULAR TIME OR LOCATION; (B) ANY DEFECT OR ERROR IN THIS SITE (INCLUDING ANY SITE CONTENT) OR IN ANY USER CONTENT WILL BE CORRECTED; OR (C) THIS SITE AND ALL USER CONTENT WILL BE SECURE AND FREE OF ANY VIRUS OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENT.
  • (ii) IN NO EVENT SHALL SWIMOUTLET AND/OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER USER (WHETHER UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY) FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA, LOSS OF BUSINESS, PROFIT OR REVENUE OR GOODWILL) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS SITE OR ANY SITE CONTENT, OR ANY USER CONTENT, OR THE PROVISION OR USE OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING, EVEN IF SWIMOUTLET AND ITS SUPPLIERS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES.
  • (iii) IN NO EVENT SHALL SWIMOUTLET AND/OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO YOU IN CONNECTION WITH A PURCHASE YOU MAKE ON THIS SITE, FOR ANY DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR THE PURCHASE.

BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, DAMAGES OR LIABILITIES, SOME OF THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. ACCORDINGLY, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 7 AFFECTS ANY WARRANTIES, DAMAGES OR LIABILITIES WHICH CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

8. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER; CHOICE OF LAW.

  • (i) We encourage you to contact our Customer Service department if you have concerns or complaints about SwimOutlet. Generally, customer complaints can be satisfactorily resolved in this way. If we cannot resolve your concerns informally, disputes between you and SwimOutlet shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 8.
  • (ii) You and SwimOutlet agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims (including the interpretation and scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of the dispute or claim) relating to SwimOutlet, including, without limitation, all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of your relationship with SwimOutlet, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, that arose either before or during this, or any prior, version of these Terms of Use, or that may arise after termination of your relationship with SwimOutlet.
  • (iii) Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to limited review by courts. Under this Agreement, arbitrators can award the same individual relief affecting individual parties that a court can award, including damages and an award of attorneys' fees, if the applicable law allows. BY AGREEING TO RESOLVE DISPUTES THROUGH ARBITRATION, YOU AND SWIMOUTLET AGREE TO EACH UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR COURT (except small claims court). Instead of arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in a small claims court for disputes or claims that are within the scope of the small claims court's authority.
  • (iv) The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. The arbitration shall be conducted before one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes, administered by JAMS pursuant to JAMS' Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, as modified by this Terms of Use, and unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing. For more information on JAMS, its rules and procedures, and how to file an arbitration claim, you may call JAMS at 800-352-5267 or visit the JAMS website at http://www.jamsadr.org. Arbitration will proceed at a location that the arbitrator selects within 100 miles of your primary residence, unless you and SwimOutlet agree otherwise.
  • (v) The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator's award shall be final and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.
  • (vi) IIn the event that you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, SwimOutlet will pay as much of your arbitration filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation. SwimOutlet also reserves the right in its sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for all of the costs of the arbitration. However, SwimOutlet will not pay your share of the arbitration fees if the arbitrator finds that either your claim or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, as measured by the standards of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b).
  • (vii) YOU AND SWIMOUTLET AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR SWIMOUTLET WILL BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES' INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND WILL NOT BE BROUGHT AS A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, COLLECTIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class, representative, or private attorney general proceeding. You and SwimOutlet agree to seek only such individual relief – whether in the form of individual damages, an individualized injunction, or other non-monetary individual relief – as is necessary to resolve any individual injury that either you or SwimOutlet has suffered or may suffer.
  • (viii)The requirement that claims be brought in binding arbitration only in an individual capacity and not as a representative, private attorney general, or class member ("Class Action Waiver") is non-severable.

9. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING AND CUSTOMS FEES.

International Shipments

Delivery of products purchased from SwimOutlet shall occur, and risk of loss and title to products shall pass to you, in the case of products shipped by courier / carrier, at the time SwimOutlet transfers the products to the carrier or shipping agent at the facility in the United States from which your order is shipped or, in the case of products shipped through the United States Postal Service, at the time SwimOutlet transfers physical possession of the products to the United States Postal Service or its agent.

Customs Fees (if applicable)

Orders shipped outside the United States may be subject to customs import duties and/or taxes based on the destination country. If assessed, customs charges (i.e., duties and taxes) are your responsibility in addition to shipping cost. SwimOutlet is unable to predict or control customs charges as they are levied by the destination country.

For Canadian Customers

For goods shipped through the United States Postal Service

Products will be shipped through the United States Postal Service (“USPS”) and ultimately through Canada Post. Goods may be shipped through the USPS ePacket service, in which case applicable duties and taxes will be collected by SwimOutlet or its shipping agent and paid to the CBSA (as defined below) on your behalf if assessed by CBSA at the time of importation, or through the regular USPS service, in which case you are responsible for paying the applicable duties and taxes at the time you receive your products. In either case, you are ultimately responsible for paying all applicable duties and taxes on the products.

For goods shipped by means other than through the United States Postal Service

By ordering products from SwimOutlet, you authorize the customs broker selected by SwimOutlet or its shipping agent to act as your agent to transact business with the Canada Border Services Agency (“CBSA”) to clear merchandise, pay duties and taxes, and to handle any merchandise returns and refund claims on your behalf. On checkout, SwimOutlet calculates and collects the applicable taxes and duties that the broker will pay on your behalf to the CBSA.

10. CALIFORNIA TRANSPARENCY IN SUPPLY CHAINS ACT.

In accordance with the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010, we strive to maintain a culture of compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and the highest standards of ethics and business conduct with respect to human trafficking, slavery and forced labor of any kind, including child and prison labor. SwimOutlet expects its suppliers to conduct their businesses not only in a lawful manner, but also in compliance with the same high standards of integrity and ethics.

SwimOutlet expects its suppliers to refrain from the direct or indirect use of slavery, forced labor or any forms of human trafficking. SwimOutlet will not knowingly do business with any supplier that supports, condones or otherwise has issues with slavery, human trafficking or forced labor. However, SwimOutlet does not verify its supply chain to evaluate the risks of noncompliance involving slavery and human trafficking issues.

SwimOutlet does not monitor its supply chain to evaluate supplier compliance with company standards for trafficking and slavery in supply chains. However, if SwimOutlet becomes aware that a supplier has violated applicable laws, SwimOutlet will take appropriate action, which may include auditing the supplier’s facilities or terminating the supplier.

SwimOutlet does not currently require its direct suppliers to make any certifications regarding human trafficking or slavery. However, SwimOutlet requires its retail vendors to comply with the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act. SwimOutlet does not currently have any specific internal standards or procedures for employees or contractors failing to meet its standards regarding slavery and trafficking. SwimOutlet does not currently conduct any specific management or employee training relating to issues of slavery and human trafficking.

Schedule 1 to Terms of Use for International Shipments Only

1. You are shopping on SwimOutlet.com’s website (the “Merchant”).

2. If you place a Qualifying Customer Order, the Product(s) that you are purchasing will be sold first by the Merchant to Passport Global Inc (“Passport”), and then by Passport to you under these Terms and Conditions. Your payment information, shipping address, and any additional information required or requested to complete your order will be shared directly with Passport and its nominated agents and contractors, in order to enable Passport to complete your Qualifying Customer Order.

3. Your Qualifying Customer Order is subject to: (1) these Terms and Conditions; and (2) any relevant terms and conditions imposed by the Merchant. By completing your purchase, you confirm that you have read and agree to be bound by all of these. By placing a Qualifying Customer Order on the Merchant’s website, you understand and agree that:

  1. 3.1You are dealing with and providing your information to Passport. Passport may contact you about your order.
  2. 3.2 If there is an error in the price listed for a Product on the Merchant’s website, or in the price applied to the product during the sale of and processing of your order for the Product, Passport and its nominated agents are entitled to contact you, correct the price, and/or cancel your order.
  3. 3.3 The Merchant remains responsible for handling payment for your order.
  4. 3.4 Once your payment is processed, ownership in the items will shift from Passport, to you.
  5. 3.5 Certain addresses will be ineligible for shipment, such as PO box addresses.
  6. 3.6 Passport may refuse service, refuse to process or complete Qualifying Customer Orders, remove or edit content, or cancel such orders for any reason or for no reason, in its sole discretion.
  7. 3.7 If you are under the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you reside, approval of your parent or guardian is required to complete your purchase.
  8. 3.8 You authorise Passport and its nominated agents and contractors to perform any of the following activities in connection with the delivery of any Products: (i) to act as your agent to make and file customs declarations and all related actions as your direct representative, which expressly includes completing any documents, amending product or Harmonised System codes, and paying any duties, taxes or penalties required under applicable laws and regulations; (ii) to act as forwarding agent for customs import and export control purposes solely for the purpose of designating a customs broker to perform customs clearance and entry; and (iii) to redirect an order to your customs broker or other address upon request by any person whom Passport’s nominated agents and contractors believe in its reasonable opinion to be authorised.

4. Currency. You may select your preferred payment method and currency from a list of options available at the time of checkout. Please note that the relative value of currencies may vary, and as a result, the actual purchase price for items in your order may vary based on the currency selected.

5. Billing. If you use a payment card or other electronic form of payment as your payment type, the charges to your account for your order will be subject to the Merchant’s terms and conditions.

6. Shipping. Items in your order may be shipped via a single shipment, or via multiple shipments. If items in your Qualifying Customer Order are shipped via multiple shipments, or if your order is only partially filled and shipped, you will only be charged for those items that are actually shipped to you.

7. Chargebacks, Fraud Prevention and Void Transactions. For your protection, Passport may use various fraud prevention protocols and policies, and industry-standard verification systems, to reduce fraud and minimize chargeback risks. You must comply with such protocols and policies, including card authentication, and “ship to” and “bill to” address verification. Once an order is placed, you may not change any authenticated payment information or any verified “ship to”/“bill to” address. If there is a systemic error which results in the processing or acceptance of a transaction for which authorisation has been declined, that transaction will be void.

8. Customer Service and Returns. Questions or complaints about your order should be directed to the Merchant in the first instance. Passport may work with the Merchant as necessary to resolve your issue. The Merchant is authorised to allow for returns or refunds on orders in accordance with the Merchant’s policy, including to reimburse you for the original sales prices of Products returned to the Merchant’s nominated address. Passport may however refuse any return requested if a restriction applies to the item for which the return is requested. You accept that your sole remedies are against the Merchant. Where a return by the Customer is authorised by Passport or the Merchant, Passport shall also have the right to return the item to Merchant and accordingly the Merchant shall issue a credit note to Passport and Passport shall provide a credit note to the Customer, and Passport’s direction, ownership and risk in the Products for return shall pass directly to the Merchant. Where a return is authorised by Passport or the Merchant, the Merchant shall, at Passport’s direction and acting in its name, provide a credit note to the Customer to the extent of the value of the Product(s) authorised to be returned directly to the Merchant. In relation to any return of Products to the Merchant, you authorise Passport and its nominated agents to act on your behalf, and to recover for its own account, any import duties and taxes. If required, you will sign any such document that is reasonably required to facilitate the return of the Products and the recovery of any import duties and taxes.
