Terms of Sale

These are the terms and conditions (the “Terms of Sale”) that apply when you purchase products (“Merchandise”) or magazine subscriptions (“Subscriptions”) on the Website of Imbibe Magazine (“Imbibe” or “Seller”). By placing an order for Merchandise through imbibemagazine.com or our mobile Websites (collectively, “Websites”), you accept these Terms of Sale and agree to be bound by them. If you have any questions about these Terms of Sale or any aspect of your order, please e-mail our Customer Service Department at info @ imbibemagazine.com.

These Terms of Sale, together with the Website’s Terms of Use and the Website’s Privacy Policy constitute the sole and entire agreement between Imbibe and Buyer (“You” or “Buyer”) with respect to the subject matter of this agreement, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this agreement, and the related Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, these Terms of Sale shall control.

  1. Ordering and Payment.
    1. We currently accept the following online methods of payment: [Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and Paypal]. All Subscription and Merchandise payments are processed in US Dollars. Please ensure your billing address on file with your financial institution matches the billing address provided. It is your responsibility to retain all records of your purchase in the event it may be needed in the future. Should any personal information that is necessary to fulfill your order change after the time your order was placed (such as shipping address or phone number), it is your responsibility to contact us with updated information. If your order is returned to us due to being provided incorrect shipping information, you may be subject to a return shipment fee. Your order confirmation will reflect the items ordered and the total amount to be charged. Your bank or card issuer’s agreement governs your use of your designated card or account in connection with your purchase, and you must refer to such agreement (not this agreement) with respect to your rights and liabilities as an accountholder or cardholder.
    2. After we receive your order, you will receive an email from us confirming receipt of your order, usually in minutes. If you do not receive an email, contact us before you try to place another order for the same merchandise. You should note that the email that we send to you confirming receipt of your order does not constitute acceptance of your order.
    3. If we decline your order because of an error in pricing, product, payment or other information in your order, we will notify you at the email address you provided and ask you whether you would like to re-submit your order to purchase the relevant merchandise once the error is corrected.

    5. Items on our Websites may, on rare occasion, be mispriced. If an item’s correct price is lower than our stated price, we will refund the difference and ship you the item. If an item’s correct price is higher than our stated price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for additional payment before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation.

  1. Limited Warranty.
    1. We warrant that during the warranty period (as defined in paragraph 6 below), the merchandise will be free from defects in materials and workmanship. We limit the duration and remedies of all implied warranties, including without limitation the warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, to the duration of this express limited warranty.
    2. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
    3. Our responsibility for defective merchandise is limited to replacement or refund as described above in this warranty statement.
    4. Imbibe extends this limited warranty only to the customer who originally purchased the Merchandise. It does not extend to any subsequent owner or other transferee of the Merchandise.
    5. This limited warranty does not cover any damage due to: (a) transportation and storage after shipment; (c) improper use; (d) failure to follow the product instructions or to perform any preventive maintenance; (e) modifications; (f) unauthorized repair; (g) normal wear and tear; or (h) external causes such as accidents, abuse, or other actions or events beyond our reasonable control.
    6. This limited warranty starts on the date of your purchase and lasts for [one year] (the “Warranty Period”). The Warranty Period is not extended if we repair or replace the Merchandise. We may change the availability of this limited warranty at our discretion, but any changes will not be retroactive. With respect to any defective Merchandise during the Warranty Period, we will, in our sole discretion, either: (a) repair or replace such product free of charge or (b) refund the purchase price of such product. We will also pay for shipping and handling fees to return the repaired or replacement product to you if we elect to repair or replace the defective product.
    7. Please note that the colors, dimensions and details that you see on your computer or device may vary depending upon your display, so we cannot guarantee that your computer will accurately display the true details of our products and services. If the received Merchandise does not exactly match the images on your screen in color or other details, such differences will not constitute a defect for the purposes of warranty claims under this section.
  2. Limitation of Liability.
    1. The remedies described above are your sole and exclusive remedies and our entire liability for any breach of this limited warranty. In no event will Imbibe, or its suppliers or licensors, be liable with respect to any subject matter of this agreement under any contract, negligence, strict liability or other legal or equitable theory for: (I) Any special, incidental, or consequential damages; (II) The cost of procurement or substitute products or services; or (III) For any amounts that exceed the fees paid by you to Imbibe. Imbibe shall have no liability for any failure or delay due to matters beyond its reasonable control. The foregoing shall not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.
    2. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
  3. No purchases by minors.
    You must be at least the age of majority where you reside to order from the Websites. If Imbibe discovers that an order has been placed by a minor, we will attempt to cancel that order and inform you.

    This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Oregon 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 this Agreement shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Oregon in each case located in Portland and Multnomah County. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.
