Terms of service
Overview
Welcome to INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE! The term "the Company," "we," "us," or "our" refers to INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE. INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and ordering services, to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (hereinafter referred to as the "Service"). INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Service to you.
The following Terms of Service, along with the policies referenced herein (hereinafter referred to as the "Terms of Service" or "Terms"), describe your rights and responsibilities when using the Service.
Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they contain important information regarding your legal rights and cover areas such as disclaimers of warranties and limitations of liability.
By visiting, accessing, or using our Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy [link]. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or the Privacy Policy, please do not use or access our Service.
Section 1 - Access and Accounts
By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or region of residence, and that you agree to allow any of your minor dependents to use the Service on devices you own, purchase, or control.
To use the Service—including accessing or browsing our online store, or making any purchases of products or services offered by us—you may be required to provide certain information, such as an email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide to our store is accurate, current, and complete, and that you have all necessary rights to provide this information.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account credentials to any other person.
Section 2 - Our Products
We make every effort to display the products and services in our online store as accurately as possible. However, please note that due to the type of device and device settings you use to access the store, colors and the appearance of products may differ from what is displayed on the screen.
We do not warrant that the appearance or quality of any products or services purchased by you will meet your expectations, or that they will be identical to what was depicted or presented in our online store.
All descriptions of products are subject to change at any time without notice, at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time, and we may limit the quantities of any products we provide to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis.
Section 3 - Orders
By placing an order, you are making an offer to purchase. INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept or reject your order for any reason. An order is not accepted until INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE confirms its acceptance. We must receive and process payment before an order can be accepted. Since INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE may not be able to accommodate cancellation requests once an order has been accepted, please review your order details carefully before submitting. If we do not accept, or if we modify or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the email, billing address, and/or phone number provided at the time the order was made.
Purchases are eligible for return or exchange only in accordance with our Refund Policy [link].
You represent and warrant that any products purchased are for your own personal or household use, and are not intended for commercial resale or export.
Section 4 - Pricing and Billing
Prices, discounts, and promotions are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your order confirmation email. Unless otherwise stated, listed prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, duties, or import fees.
Prices listed in the online store may differ from those offered in brick-and-mortar stores, other online stores, or stores operated by third-party services. We may occasionally offer promotions regarding services that may affect pricing and to which separate terms and conditions apply. In the event of a conflict between the terms of a promotion and these Terms, the promotion terms shall prevail.
You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, payment, and account information for all purchases made at our store. You also agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers, and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.
You represent and warrant that: (i) the credit card information you supply is true, correct, and complete; (ii) you are duly authorized to use such credit card for the purchase; (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit card company; and (iv) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including shipping, handling, and all applicable taxes, if any.

Section 15 - Termination
We may terminate this agreement or your access to the Service (or any part thereof) at any time without notice, at our sole discretion. In such event, you will remain liable for all amounts due up to and including the date of termination.

Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you, any other visitor to the Service, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.
Except as expressly stated by INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE, the Service and all products provided through the Service are provided to you "as is" and "as available" for your use, without any representation, warranties, or conditions of any kind, either express or implied, including all implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, merchantable quality, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee, represent, or warrant that your use of our Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied or other warranties, the above exclusions may not apply to you.
Section 17 - Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE, our partners, directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, service providers, licensors, or Shopify and its affiliates be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind (including, without limitation, lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages). This applies whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, arising from your use of the Service or any products procured using the Service, or for any other claim related in any way to your use of the Service or products—including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of the Service or any content (or product) posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available via the Service, even if advised of their possibility.
Section 18 - Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless INTER DEPEND ONLINE STORE, Shopify, and our affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, licensors, and service providers from any losses, damages, liabilities, or claims—including reasonable attorneys' fees paid to third parties—arising out of or related to: (1) your breach of these Terms of Service or the documents they incorporate by reference; (2) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party; or (3) your access and use of the Service.
We will notify you if there is a claim subject to indemnification, but a failure to notify you promptly will not excuse your obligations unless it materially prejudices you. We may control the defense and settlement of such claims at your expense, including the choice of counsel; however, we will not settle any claim requiring non-monetary obligations from you without your consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). You agree to cooperate in the defense of any indemnified claim, including providing relevant documentation.
Section 19 - Severability
In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service. Such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.
Section 20 - Waiver; Entire Agreement
The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
These Terms of Service and any policies or operating rules posted by us on this site or in respect to the Service constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and govern your use of the Service. This supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, and proposals, whether oral or written, between you and us (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service).
Any ambiguities in the interpretation of these Terms of Service shall not be construed against the drafting party.
