By using the website you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements and that all information you provide is accurate, current and complete.

We may refuse service, terminate access or cancel an order at our discretion where we reasonably believe these requirements are not met, or where a transaction appears fraudulent, unlawful or in breach of these Terms.

4. Use of the Website

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the website for your own personal or internal business purposes — namely, to learn about the Company, to review our brand portfolio, and to contact us.

This license does not include any right to resell or make commercial use of the website or its contents; to collect and use product listings, descriptions or imagery; to make derivative use of the website; to download or copy account information for the benefit of a third party; or to use data mining, robots, scrapers or similar data gathering and extraction tools.

6. Intellectual Property

All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, brand names, photographs, images, illustrations, page layouts, design elements, software and their selection and arrangement — is the property of Skruzmanis Marketing LLC or its licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, trade dress and other intellectual property laws.

The Skruzmanis Marketing name and logo, and the names and logos of the brands within our portfolio, are trademarks of the Company or its affiliates. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right or license to use any such trademark without our prior written consent.

You may view, download and print pages of the website for your own personal or internal business reference, provided you do not modify the content, remove any copyright or proprietary notice, or use the content in a manner that suggests association with or endorsement by the Company. Any other use, including reproduction, distribution, public display, republication or the creation of derivative works, requires our prior written permission.

If you believe that content on this website infringes your copyright, please send a notice to info@skruzmanisgroup.com containing the information required under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)). We will investigate and respond to properly submitted notices, and we terminate the access of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

7. Portfolio Brands & Products

This website presents the Company's brand portfolio for informational purposes. It is a corporate site and is not itself a point of sale. Products in the beauty, personal care and wellness categories described here are sold through the dedicated storefronts of the relevant portfolio brand, each of which may publish its own terms of sale, shipping policy and returns policy.

Where a brand-level term of sale addresses a matter — such as pricing, delivery windows, warranty or returns for a specific product — that brand-level term governs that transaction. These Terms govern your use of this corporate website and apply to all other matters between us.

Brand status indicators such as "Active" or "Expanding" describe the operational stage of a brand within our portfolio at the time of publication. They are descriptive only and do not constitute any commitment as to the availability, continuation or future performance of any brand or product.

8. Orders, Pricing & Payment

Where you place an order with us or with one of our brands, the following apply:

1. Offer and acceptance. Your order is an offer to purchase. A contract is formed only when we confirm dispatch of the goods. An order confirmation or payment acknowledgement does not, by itself, constitute acceptance.
2. Pricing. All prices are stated in United States Dollars (USD) unless otherwise indicated, and are exclusive of applicable sales tax, duties and shipping charges, which are shown at checkout.
3. Errors. Despite our efforts, a product may occasionally be listed at an incorrect price or with an incorrect description. We reserve the right to correct any error and to cancel or refuse any order placed at an incorrect price, even after the order has been acknowledged. Where payment has been taken, we will issue a full refund.
4. Availability. All products are offered subject to availability. We may limit quantities, restrict sales to any person, geographic region or jurisdiction, and discontinue any product at any time.
5. Payment. Payment is processed by PCI-DSS compliant third-party payment providers. By submitting payment details you represent that you are authorized to use the payment method and that the details you provide are true and complete.
6. Taxes and duties. You are responsible for any sales, use, value added or similar tax, and for any customs duty or import charge applicable to an international delivery.

9. Shipping & Delivery

Orders are processed and dispatched from our central distribution operations in Kentucky. We target dispatch of in-stock orders within twenty-four (24) hours of order confirmation on business days. Orders placed on weekends or public holidays are processed on the next business day.

Dispatch and delivery timeframes are estimates in good faith and are not guaranteed. Once a shipment is handed to a carrier, delivery is subject to that carrier's operations and to factors outside our control, including weather, customs clearance and carrier capacity. Title and risk of loss pass to you upon delivery to the carrier, unless applicable consumer protection law provides otherwise.

You are responsible for providing a complete and accurate delivery address. We are not liable for delays, non-delivery or additional charges resulting from an incorrect or incomplete address supplied by you.

10. Returns, Refunds & Cancellations

We stand behind the quality of the products we bring to market. Unless a portfolio brand publishes different terms for a specific product, the following apply:

• Return window. You may request a return within thirty (30) days of delivery, provided the product is unused, unopened and in its original packaging and condition.
• Health and hygiene. For health and safety reasons, cosmetics, skincare, personal care and wellness products that have been opened, used or had their hygiene seal broken cannot be returned unless the product is faulty, damaged or was sent in error.
• Faulty or incorrect items. If a product arrives damaged, defective or is not what you ordered, contact us within seven (7) days of delivery with your order number and photographs. We will arrange a replacement or a full refund, including return shipping, at no cost to you.
• Refunds. Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method within ten (10) business days of our receipt and inspection of the returned goods. The time for the funds to appear on your statement depends on your payment provider.
• Return shipping. Except for faulty, damaged or incorrectly supplied items, return shipping costs are borne by the customer. Original shipping charges are non-refundable.
• Cancellations. You may cancel an order at no charge at any time before it is dispatched. Once dispatched, the return process above applies.

To start a return, contact info@skruzmanisgroup.com with your order number. Nothing in this Section limits any statutory right you may have under applicable consumer protection law.

11. Product Information Disclaimer

Information on this website is provided for general informational purposes and is not medical, dermatological or health advice. It is not a substitute for consultation with a qualified healthcare professional. Always read the label, follow the directions for use, and perform a patch test where recommended. If you are pregnant or nursing, have a medical condition, take medication, or have a known allergy or sensitivity to any ingredient, consult a healthcare professional before use.

We make reasonable efforts to describe products accurately, but we do not warrant that product descriptions, ingredient listings, colors or other content are complete, current or error-free. Product images are illustrative; packaging and formulation may be updated by the manufacturer.

12. Your Submissions & Feedback

If you submit a message, inquiry, suggestion, idea or other material to us through this website or by any other means, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable license to use, reproduce, adapt and act upon that material for any lawful business purpose, without acknowledgement or compensation to you.

You represent that any material you submit is your own, does not infringe the rights of any third party, contains no confidential information you are not authorized to disclose, and is not unlawful, defamatory or otherwise objectionable. Please do not send us confidential or proprietary information unless we have agreed in writing in advance to receive it.

13. Electronic Communications

By providing your email address or telephone number, you consent to receive communications from us electronically, and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications we provide electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

If you subscribe to our newsletter or investor updates, you may unsubscribe at any time using the link in any such message or by contacting us. We will continue to send transactional and service messages — such as order confirmations, shipping notifications and changes to these Terms — because they are necessary to our relationship with you.

14. Investor Relations Disclaimer

References to "Investor Relations", company updates or partnership opportunities are provided for general informational purposes only. Any offering of securities by the Company, if made at all, would be made solely to eligible investors pursuant to definitive offering documentation, in compliance with the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state and foreign securities laws. No offer may be accepted, and no money may be received, except on the basis of that documentation.

No part of this website should be relied upon in connection with any investment decision. You should consult your own independent legal, tax and financial advisers before making any such decision.

15. Forward-Looking Statements

This website contains forward-looking statements regarding our strategy, brand portfolio, operations and expected performance — including statements identified by words such as "scaling", "expanding", "developing", "will", "expects" or similar expressions. These statements reflect our current expectations and are based on assumptions that may prove incorrect.

Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including market conditions, supply chain disruption, regulatory change, competitive pressure and consumer demand. Actual results may differ materially. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

16. Third-Party Links

This website may contain links to websites, storefronts and services operated by third parties. Those links are provided for convenience only. We do not control, endorse or assume responsibility for the content, products, privacy practices or availability of any third-party site, and your use of any such site is entirely at your own risk and subject to that site's own terms.

17. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE WEBSITE AND ALL CONTENT, MATERIALS AND INFORMATION MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH IT ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, secure or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the website or the servers that make it available are free of viruses or other harmful components. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, reliability or currency of any content on the website.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions above apply only to the maximum extent permitted by law, and nothing in these Terms affects your non-excludable statutory rights as a consumer.

18. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL SKRUZMANIS MARKETING LLC, ITS AFFILIATES, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE WEBSITE OR ANY PRODUCT OBTAINED THROUGH IT, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD 100).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of incidental or consequential damages; in those jurisdictions the limitations above apply only to the maximum extent permitted.

19. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Skruzmanis Marketing LLC, its affiliates and their respective members, managers, officers, employees and agents from and against any claim, demand, liability, damage, loss, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the website, your violation of any applicable law, or your infringement of the rights of any third party.

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim.

20. Force Majeure

We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disaster, fire, flood, epidemic or pandemic, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor dispute, governmental action, embargo, carrier delay, supply chain disruption, failure of utilities, or failure of telecommunications or Internet infrastructure.

21. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

Governing law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the website are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Informal resolution first

Before initiating any formal proceeding, you agree to contact us at info@skruzmanisgroup.com and to engage in good faith discussions for a period of at least thirty (30) days. Most concerns can be resolved quickly and directly at this stage.

Binding arbitration

If a dispute is not resolved informally, it shall be finally resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, before a single arbitrator, seated in Lexington, Kentucky, and conducted in English. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator may award the same relief a court could award to an individual claimant.

Class action waiver

YOU AND THE COMPANY EACH AGREE THAT DISPUTES WILL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If this waiver is held unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim shall proceed in court and all other claims remain in arbitration.

Exceptions and opt-out

Either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property rights. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to us within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms; opting out will not affect any other provision. If arbitration does not apply, the state and federal courts located in Fayette County, Kentucky shall have exclusive jurisdiction, and you consent to their personal jurisdiction and venue.

22. General Provisions

• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any brand-level terms of sale, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the website and supersede all prior understandings.
• Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
• No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any right or remedy in favor of any person other than you and the Company, except for our affiliates and indemnified parties identified above.
• Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
• Survival. Sections 6, 12, and 17 through 22 survive any termination of these Terms.

23. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our business, our services or applicable law. The revised version takes effect when posted on this page, and the "Last Updated" date will be amended accordingly. Where a change is material, we will provide reasonable advance notice by posting a prominent notice on the website or, where we hold your contact details and the law requires it, by contacting you directly.

Your continued use of the website after revised Terms take effect constitutes acceptance of those Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the website. Changes do not apply retroactively to a dispute of which we had notice before the change took effect.
