Effective December 18, 2019

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to DietDirect.com! Diet Direct Inc. ("Company" or “We”) recommends that you read the following terms and conditions carefully. By accessing or using the DietDirect.com website, including any software or mobile applications made available by Company (together, the "Website"), however accessed or used, or using any of the food, shakes, supplements, or other products ordered through the Website (collectively, “Products”), you agree to be bound by these terms (the "Terms of Service" or the "Agreement"). We encourage you to print the Agreement or save it to your computer for reference.

If you do not understand this Agreement, or do not agree to be bound by it or the Privacy Policy, you may not access or use the Website, and you must immediately cease accessing or using the Website.

These terms contain an arbitration provision that requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than jury trials or class actions, and also limits the remedies available to you in the event of a dispute. See Section 18 (Dispute Resolution) for full details.

PRIVACY POLICY

By using the Website, you represent and warrant that you have read and understood, and agree to be bound by, this Agreement and Company’s Privacy Policy (the "Privacy Policy"), which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. The Privacy Policy is available at https://www.dietdirect.com/privacy. Company encourages you to frequently check the Privacy Policy for changes.

ELIGIBILITY

By accessing and/or using the Website, including by doing so after accessing this Agreement, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old, and/or are otherwise legally qualified to enter into and form contracts under applicable law. If you are using the Website on behalf of a company, you further represent and warrant that you are authorized to act and enter into contracts on behalf of that company.

NO MEDICAL ADVICE

You understand and agree that nothing on the Website or provided through the Website is intended as or should be construed as medical advice. Company is not a medical organization and cannot give you medical advice or any diagnosis. You are urged and advised to seek the advice of a physician before beginning any dietary or any weight loss regimen. While the Products are generally recognized as safe for consumption, you may be pregnant, nursing, taking medication or have a health condition that conflicts with the Products; as such, you should consult with your primary care physician before using any of the Products.

PAYMENTS: SUBSCRIBE & SAVE

Payments

You acknowledge and agree that Company reserves the right to charge for access to the Website and/or the Products. All transmissions of payment information between you and the Website are secured with Internet-standard TLS (also known as HTTPS) encryption. We collect your name, address, and payment information to process your order. You agree to pay all fees, taxes, and other costs assessed to you for the purchase of Products or services through the Website.

Refunds and Returns

You may return any unopened, unused box, case, bottle or container of consumable Diet Direct product within thirty (30) days of purchase for a full refund or exchange. Additional return details are applicable and can be viewed on the Return Policy page.

Subscribe & Save Terms & Conditions

From time to time, Company may offer certain Products and/or exclusive Website and feature access via recurring Subscribe & Save plans. At the time you enroll in a Subscribe & Save plan (your “Subscription”), the specific terms of your Subscription will be communicated to you, such as (1) how much you will pay for the Subscription, (2) how often you will be charged for your Subscription (for example, monthly), and (3) how you can change or cancel your Subscription. If you chose to enroll in a Subscription, you understand and agree that, in addition to your first purchase, your credit or debit card on file will be charged for additional Subscription fees at regular intervals (e.g., once per month) without obtaining further permission or confirmation from you. In other words, Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled in advance of the next payment period by you. Please pay attention to the payment terms and disclosures provided during the order process for your Subscription.

Company may, in its sole discretion, send you email reminders about upcoming Subscribe & Save shipments, but you understand and agree that it is your exclusive responsibility to keep track of upcoming shipments and charges for your Subscription.

To view, manage, or cancel your subscription purchases, call 1-800-567-DIET or log in to your account and click the My Account > My Products tab, under the Subscribe & Save menu. You may also contact us at subscriptions@DietDirect.com. All changes or cancellations must be submitted at least two (2) business days in advance of your next subscription shipment date.

Changes in Subscription Fees. It may be necessary for Company to change the fees and charges in effect, including for any Subscription, and Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to lower your fees or switch your Subscription plan to a lower package rate so long as it has the same features and service level. Company will not increase rates for your Subscription without prior written notice to you that gives you sufficient time to change or cancel your Subscription if you do not agree to the increase.

CHANGES TO TERMS AND PRIVACY POLICY

Internet technology and the applicable laws, rules, and regulations change frequently. Company reserves the right to change this Agreement and its Privacy Policy at any time upon notice to you (including by posting a new version, or sending you a change notice).

If at any time you find either this Agreement or the Privacy Policy unacceptable, you must immediately cease accessing Service.

In no event shall Company, the Company Parties, or its licensors or suppliers be liable to you for any claims arising from your use with the Website or Products, including without limitation for special, incidental, or consequential damages, lost profits, lost data or confidential or other information, loss of privacy, costs of procurement of substitute goods or services, failure to meet any duty including without limitation of good faith or of reasonable care, negligence, or otherwise, regardless of the foreseeability of those damages or of any advice or notice given to Company or its licensors and suppliers arising out of or in connection with your use of the Website or Products.

You agree that this limitation of liability represents a reasonable allocation of risk and is a fundamental element of the basis of the bargain between Company and you. The Website and Products would not be provided without such limitations.

Application of Disclaimers

The above disclaimers, waivers, and limitations do not in any way limit any other disclaimer of warranties or any other limitation of liability in any other agreement between you and Company or between you and any of Company’s licensors and suppliers. Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusion of certain implied warranties or the limitation of certain damages, so some of the above disclaimers, waivers, and limitations of liability may not apply to you. Company’s licensors and suppliers are intended third-party beneficiaries of these disclaimers, waivers, and limitations. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you through the Website or otherwise shall alter any of the disclaimers or limitations stated in this section.

INDEMNIFICATION

Without limiting any indemnification provision of this Agreement, you (the "Indemnitor") agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Company and the Company Parties (collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all claims, actions, demands, causes of action, and other proceedings (individually, "Claim", and collectively, "Claims"), including but not limited to legal costs and fees, and providing sole and exclusive control of the defense of any action to Company, including the choice of legal counsel and all related settlement negotiations, arising out of or relating to: (i) your breach of this Agreement, including without limitation any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement; (ii) your access to or use of the Website or Products; (iii) your violation or alleged violation of any foreign or domestic, international, federal, state, or local law or regulation; (iv) your violations of Section 13 regarding prohibited uses of the Website and other prohibited conduct; or (v) your violation or alleged violation of any third party's copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights.

You may not settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the concerned Company Parties.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Binding Arbitration

If you and Company or any of the Company Parties (collectively referred to in this Section as “Company”) cannot resolve a dispute or other Claim through negotiations, either party may elect to have the dispute or Claim finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other(s).

You acknowledge that without this provision, you would have the right to sue in court with a jury trial or to participate in a class action.

The language in this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with its fair meaning and not strictly for or against either party.

The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, Company will pay the AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose according to the standards set forth in Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, then you will pay the arbitrator fees, in addition to any amount that exceeds the filing fees. In that case, you also agree to reimburse Company for all payments disbursed that are your obligation to reimburse under the AAA Rules. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to resolve, except that issues relating to the enforceability of the arbitration provision are for a Court of Competent Jurisdiction to resolve. The arbitration hearing will take place in Wilmington, North Carolina; however, to facilitate participation by remote parties, the arbitration may be conducted in person, through document submission, through telephone, or online as deemed appropriate by the arbitrator. The arbitrator will issue a decision in writing, but need only provide a statement of reasons if requested by a party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Either party may litigate to compel arbitration in court, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to modify, confirm, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall award costs to the prevailing party (including, without limitation, fees, expenses, and reasonable attorneys' fees) at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party, within 14 days of the arbitrator's ruling on the merits.

Restrictions Against Joinder of Claims

You and Company agree that any arbitration shall be limited to each Claim individually. You and Company agree that each may only bring claims against the other in your or Company’s individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.

If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable in a Court of Competent Jurisdiction, the Claim will still be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration upon the election of either party, and any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other(s). In addition: (1) no arbitration shall be joined with any other arbitration, and (2) there is no right for any Claim to be arbitrated on a class-action or mass-action basis or to employ class action procedures, and (3) there is no right of authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf either of the general public or any other individuals.

Remedies in Aid of Arbitration; Equitable Relief

This agreement to arbitrate will not preclude you or Company from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration, including without limitation orders to stay a court action, compel arbitration, or confirm an arbitral award, from a Court of Competent Jurisdiction. Furthermore, this agreement to arbitrate will not preclude you or Company from applying to a Court of Competent Jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary. "Court of Competent Jurisdiction" means any court: (1) that has jurisdiction over the subject matter; and (2) that is located in or nearest to Wilmington, North Carolina.

Venue for any Judicial Proceeding

This Agreement, including without limitation this Agreement's interpretation, shall be treated as though this Agreement were executed and performed in Wilmington, North Carolina, and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of North Carolina without regard to its conflict of law principles. The language in this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with its fair meaning and not strictly for or against either party.

The proper venue for any judicial action arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement will be the state and federal located in or nearest to Wilmington, North Carolina. The parties stipulate to, and agree to waive any objection to, the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts, and further expressly submit to extraterritorial service of process.

TERMINATION
