Terms of service
OVERVIEW
Welcome to Vitalipup! The terms "we", "us" and "our" refer to Vitalipup. Vitalipup operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services in order to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the "Services"). Vitalipup is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.
The below terms and conditions, together with any policies referenced herein (these "Terms of Service" or "Terms") describe your rights and responsibilities when you use the Services.
Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights and cover areas such as warranty disclaimers, limitations of liability, shipping responsibilities, customs charges, and dispute resolution.
By visiting, interacting with or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or Privacy Policy, you should not use or access our Services.
SECTION 1 - ACCESS AND ACCOUNT
By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, and you have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use the Services on devices you own, purchase or manage.
To use the Services, including accessing or browsing our online stores or purchasing any of the products or services we offer, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all the information you provide in our stores is correct, current and complete and that you have all rights necessary to provide this information.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all of your account activity. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to any other person.
SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS
We have made every effort to provide an accurate representation of our products and services in our online stores. However, please note that colors, dimensions, packaging, or product appearance may differ from how they may appear on your screen due to the type of device you use to access the store and your device settings and configuration.
We do not warrant that the appearance, packaging, or quality of any products or services purchased by you will meet your expectations or be exactly the same as depicted or rendered in our online stores.
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 may limit the quantities of any products that we offer to any person, geographic region or jurisdiction, on a case-by-case basis.
All products sold by Vitalipup are non-medical consumer products intended solely for general pet support, nutritional support, comfort, convenience, or everyday use. They are not medical devices, veterinary devices, drugs, or safety equipment and must not be relied upon to diagnose, treat, prevent, monitor, cure, or mitigate any disease, illness, injury, deficiency, or other health condition.
Nutritional supplements offered by Vitalipup, including taurine-based products, are intended solely to support normal nutritional wellness and healthy body functions such as heart function, vision, and general wellbeing in pets. Any statements regarding such products have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Use of any Vitalipup supplement does not replace professional veterinary advice, diagnosis, treatment, testing, monitoring, medication, or emergency care. Pet owners are solely responsible for determining, together with a licensed veterinarian where appropriate, whether any supplement is suitable for their pet based on the animal’s breed, age, weight, diet, health status, sensitivities, allergies, medical history, concurrent medications, and individual needs.
Pet owners acknowledge that all supplements, treats, and pet wellness products may affect animals differently and may carry risks, including but not limited to intolerance, allergic reaction, digestive upset, interaction with medications, unexpected side effects, worsening of an underlying condition, or other adverse outcomes. Individual results are not guaranteed.
By purchasing or using any supplement sold by Vitalipup, you assume all responsibility for proper selection, introduction, dosage, administration, storage, and supervision. Vitalipup shall not be liable for any injury, illness, adverse reaction, death, loss, or damage arising out of or related to use, misuse, improper dosage, failure to follow instructions, failure to seek veterinary advice, product combination with other substances, pre-existing conditions, or use contrary to warnings or intended purpose, except to the extent liability cannot be excluded under applicable law.
Pet owners acknowledge that the safety, suitability, and effectiveness of any product depends on factors such as proper use, supervision, environmental conditions, fit, storage, maintenance, and the health and behaviour of the animal. Individual outcomes will vary and are not guaranteed.
Vitalipup products are designed for pets and their owners and are intended to provide comfort, support, and enrichment only. All products must be used responsibly and under appropriate supervision. Vitalipup is not responsible for misuse, improper use, abuse, chewing, ingestion, destruction, pet damage, or any damage caused by pets while using our products.
SECTION 3 - ORDERS
When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Vitalipup reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at its discretion. Your order is not accepted until Vitalipup confirms acceptance. We must receive and process your payment before your order is accepted.
Please review your order carefully before submitting, as Vitalipup may be unable to accommodate cancellation requests after an order is accepted.
In the event that we do not accept, make a change to, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the e-mail, billing address, and/or phone number provided at the time the order was made.
We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, or limit any order for fraud prevention, pricing errors, suspected misuse, inventory limitations, suspected resale activity, shipping restrictions, or compliance reasons.
Your purchases are subject to return or exchange solely in accordance with our Refund Policy.
You represent and warrant that your purchases are for your own personal or household use and not for commercial resale or export.
SECTION 4 - PRICES 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 expressly stated, posted prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, customs, duties, VAT, GST, import charges, clearance fees, or similar charges.
Prices posted in our online stores may be different from prices offered in physical stores or in online or other stores operated by third parties. We may offer, from time to time, promotions on the Services that may affect pricing and that are governed by terms and conditions separate from these Terms. If there is a conflict between the terms for a promotion and these Terms, the promotion terms will govern.
Unless otherwise stated, prices displayed on the Services are shown in United States Dollars (USD). Depending on your location and payment method, banks, card issuers, payment providers, or financial institutions may apply international transaction fees, currency conversion fees, processing charges, or similar charges. These charges are imposed by the relevant provider, not by Vitalipup, and are not controlled, collected, or refunded by Vitalipup.
You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made at our stores. You 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 or other payment information you provide is true, correct, and complete, (ii) you are duly authorized to use such payment method for the purchase, (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your payment provider, and (iv) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including shipping, handling charges, and all applicable taxes, duties, or fees, if any.
SECTION 5 - SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
All delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed. We are not liable for shipping or delivery delays caused by shipping carriers, customs processing, supply chain disruptions, severe weather, labor disruptions, force majeure events, or other events outside our reasonable control.
Orders may be fulfilled and shipped from domestic or international fulfillment centers depending on stock availability, destination, and logistics requirements.
Unless otherwise expressly stated, posted prices do not include import duties, customs charges, VAT, GST, sales taxes, clearance fees, or similar charges imposed by the destination country are not included in the product price or shipping fee and are the sole responsibility of the customer.
Vitalipup does not control and cannot predict these charges. The customer is solely responsible for paying any such amounts required for customs clearance or delivery.
Once we transfer products to the carrier, title and risk of loss passes to you to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Orders that are refused, unclaimed, abandoned, returned, destroyed, delayed, or otherwise not delivered due to incorrect address information supplied by the customer, failure to pay customs or import charges, or failure to collect the package may not be eligible for a refund, reshipment, or replacement, except where required by applicable law.

Our Services, including but not limited to all trademarks, brands, text, displays, images, graphics, product reviews, video, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof, are owned by Vitalipup, its affiliates or licensors and are protected by U.S. and foreign patent, copyright and other intellectual property laws.

You agree that your Feedback will not violate any right of any third-party, including copyright, trademark, privacy, personality or other personal or proprietary right. You further agree that your Feedback will not contain libelous or otherwise unlawful, abusive or obscene Feedback, or contain any computer virus or other malware that could in any way affect the operation of the Services or any related website. You may not use a false email address, pretend to be someone other than yourself, or otherwise mislead us or third-parties as to the origin of any Feedback.
You are solely responsible for any Feedback you make and its accuracy. We take no responsibility and assume no liability for any Feedback posted by you or any third-party.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Vitalipup disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, and non-infringement.
We do not guarantee that the Services will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that any defects will be corrected.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any rights or remedies that cannot be lawfully excluded under applicable consumer protection law, including where applicable the Australian Consumer Law, the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act, and the United Kingdom Consumer Rights Act 2015.
SECTION 17 - LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Vitalipup, including its directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, suppliers, and service providers, shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
This includes, without limitation, loss of profits, revenue, savings, data, goodwill, or business interruption arising out of or related to your use of the Services or any products purchased through the Services.
Without limiting the foregoing, Vitalipup shall not be liable for any injury, illness, damage, loss, adverse reaction, overdose, interaction, worsening condition, veterinary expense, or death resulting from product use, misuse, improper use, improper dosage, lack of supervision, failure to follow instructions, pre-existing conditions, concurrent medications, allergic response, or reliance on any product as a substitute for veterinary care, medical treatment, diagnosis, monitoring, or preventative measures.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Vitalipup’ total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Services or any product purchased shall not exceed the amount paid by you for the product giving rise to the claim.

your misuse of the Services or products
your infringement of any third-party rights
We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you.

SECTION 20 - WAIVER; ENTIRE AGREEMENT
These Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Vitalipup and govern your use of the Services.

The arbitration shall be conducted under the rules of the American Arbitration Association and shall take place in the United States, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
You agree that disputes will be resolved on an individual basis only and not as part of any class, collective, or representative action.
Nothing in this section limits any non-waivable rights you may have under applicable consumer protection laws.
