The Lion Mart Business Accounts Terms and Conditions

These The Lion Mart Business Accounts Terms & Conditions (the "Agreement") are between thelionmart.com Services LLC (“The Lion Mart,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and the entity registering for a Business Account (“Customer”, “you” or “your”).

   PURPOSE OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement governs your access to, use of, and transactions made through The Lion Mart Business. “The Lion Mart Business” enables registered business customers to purchase products and services for business purposes and to access and use a set of features, services, software, and applications specifically intended for business customers. We may make available to you, through The Lion Mart Business, certain services or products that are subject to additional terms and conditions, and if you use such services or purchase such products, those terms and conditions (the “Feature Terms”) will also apply to you. Products made available through The Lion Mart Business may be designed for, and only appropriate for, specialized uses; accordingly, you may only use them as intended by, and in compliance with all instructions provided by, the manufacturer. Finally, certain policies accessible through The Lion Mart Business apply to your and your users’ use of and access to The Lion Mart Business. These “Policies” include the The Lion Mart Business Acceptable Use Policy, the The Lion Mart Business Pricing Policy, the The Lion Mart Business Sanctions and Export Policy, the thelionmart.com Privacy Notice, the The Lion Mart Business Gift Card Policy, and the Healthcare Disclosure Policies. This Agreement incorporates by reference the Feature Terms and the Policies.

   ELIGIBILITY; ACCOUNT SECURITY. By creating a Business Account, you represent that (i) the individual acting on behalf of the Customer has the authority to bind the Customer, (ii) the Customer has all requisite right, power, and authority to enter into, perform its obligations under, and grant the rights and authorizations in the Agreement, and (iii) the Customer is an Eligible Entity. “Eligible Entities” include all types of businesses (for example, LLCs, LLPs, corporations, partnerships, sole proprietorships, and PLLCs), all types of governmental entities (federal, state, local, and quasi-governmental entities), and all types of non-profit organizations (including 501(c) organizations, 527 organizations, and similar tax-exempt organizations). Individual consumers should use thelionmart.com. Upon completion of your registration, a “Business Account” will be created for your organization. You may authorize others to create a “User Account” associated with your Business Account. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your Business Account and any associated User Accounts, and must ensure your Users comply with the Acceptable Use Policy and this Agreement. You are responsible for maintaining the security of the passwords associated with your Business Account and User Accounts; if you believe an unauthorized person has access to your password, Business Account, or an associated User Account, you must contact us immediately and change any compromised passwords.

   SHIPPING; RETURNS; REPLACEMENT CHARGES; PAYMENT METHODS; TAXES. Your purchases are subject to The Lion Mart’s Shipping and Returns Policies. All purchases of physical items from The Lion Mart are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier. Unless you are participating in the Pay by Invoice service, payment for all purchases made through your Business Account is due upon shipment or on the date indicated on the checkout page, or, for digital products, when we make the digital product available to you. For returns, The Lion Mart does not take title to returned items until the item arrives at our fulfillment center. At our discretion, a refund may be issued without requiring a return. In this situation, The Lion Mart does not take title to the refunded item. To purchase through The Lion Mart Business, you will need at least one valid payment method associated with your Business Account; if there is a problem charging your selected payment method for any purchase, we may charge any other valid payment method associated with your Business Account. If we send any User a replacement product for a product they originally ordered using an individual payment method (such as a personal credit card) and the original product ordered is not returned within 30 days of the replacement request, you acknowledge and consent that we may charge any eligible payment method on record for the relevant User Account for the replacement product. Each party will be responsible, as required under applicable law, for identifying and paying all taxes and other governmental fees and charges (and any penalties, interest, and other additions thereto) that are imposed on that party upon or with respect to the transactions and payments under this Agreement.

   DISCLAIMER. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN WRITING, ANY INFORMATION, CONTENT, MATERIALS, PRODUCTS (INCLUDING SOFTWARE) OR SERVICES MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU BY The Lion Mart ARE ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, AND The Lion Mart MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO SUCH INFORMATION, CONTENT, MATERIALS, PRODUCTS (INCLUDING SOFTWARE) OR SERVICES. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN WRITING, The Lion Mart DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE PRODUCTS IT SELLS AND THE SERVICES AND INFORMATION IT PROVIDES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

   INDEMNIFICATION. You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless The Lion Mart and its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives, contractors, and agents, from and against any loss, damage, judgment, settlement, expense, interest, and any other liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) related to or arising out of any third party allegation, claim, lawsuit, or proceeding (a "Claim") to the extent such Claim is based on: (a) any breach of the Agreement, (b) any unlawful, improper or negligent use by anyone of any product sold or service provided to you under the Agreement, (c) any dispute between you and your Users, or (d) your gross negligence or willful misconduct. You will use counsel reasonably satisfactory to us to defend each indemnified Claim. If at any time we reasonably determine that any indemnified Claim might adversely affect us, we may take control of the defense at our expense. You may not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of a Claim without our prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld.

   LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL The Lion Mart BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY LOST PROFITS, THAT RESULT FROM YOUR PURCHASE OF ANY PRODUCTS OR USE OF ANY SERVICES, EVEN IF The Lion Mart HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

   CUSTOMER INFORMATION, PRIVACY, CONFIDENTIALITY.

   7.1. Customer Information. We require you to provide information about you and your Users to access and use The Lion Mart Business, and you may need to provide supplemental information to use or purchase some The Lion Mart Business products or services. You will ensure that all information that you provide to us is at all times accurate and complete. We may share information you provide (for example, your organization’s name, addresses, Taxpayer Identification Number) with others in your organization and third parties to confirm the accuracy of such information and your eligibility to use The Lion Mart Business or certain services (for example, to confirm you hold a valid license, certification, or credential where required). To enable us to improve our services, including by making available additional product selection or business pricing, we may share specific order information about the products or services you purchase through your Business Account with the suppliers who provide such products or services. For example, for certain transactions, The Lion Mart Business may share your organization’s name or credentials, shipping address, shipment date, ASIN/SKU, quantity or other relevant information.

   7.2. Privacy. Except as disclosed in this Agreement, our use of your information is governed by the terms of the thelionmart.com Privacy Notice. Please review the Privacy Notice to understand our practices with respect to your information. Please note that all information about Users and User Accounts associated with a Business Account may be shared with your organization.

   7.3. Confidentiality. In connection with your use of The Lion Mart Business, we may share with you information which is identified as confidential or that should reasonably be considered confidential (“Confidential Information”). You will take all reasonable measures to avoid disclosure, dissemination or unauthorized use of Confidential Information, including, at a minimum, those measures you take to protect your own confidential information of a similar nature. You may use Confidential Information only in connection with your use of The Lion Mart Business.

   GOVERNING LAW, DISPUTES, GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES.

   8.1. Governing Law. The laws of the State of Washington, without reference to conflict of law rules, as well as the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law, govern the Agreement and any dispute that might arise between you and us that pertains to The Lion Mart Business or this Agreement. The United Nations Convention for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to the Agreement.

   8.2. Disputes. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to The Lion Mart Business or this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent Corporation Service Company, 300 Deschutes Way SW, Suite 304, Tumwater, WA 98501. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules (available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879). An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages). You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or at a mutually agreed location. We and you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If, for any reason, a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We and you both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

   8.3. Public Sector Entities. If you are a public sector entity and precluded by law from agreeing to any of the provisions of Section 8 as set forth above, then any disputes with you will be governed by the substantive laws of the sovereign under whose laws you were formed and the venue for any such dispute will be the venue required by the laws of such sovereign. Similarly, if the laws of such sovereign would result in other provisions in this Agreement being deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable against you, those provisions will not apply to you and will be deemed severable from this Agreement. All other provisions in the Agreement remain in full force and effect.
   THIRD-PARTY OFFERINGS. Parties other than The Lion Mart operate stores, provide services or software, or sell product lines through The Lion Mart Business. In addition, we provide links to the sites of affiliated companies and certain other businesses. If you purchase any of the products or services offered by these businesses or individuals, you are purchasing directly from those third parties, not from The Lion Mart. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating, and we do not warrant, the offerings of any of these businesses or individuals (including the content of their sites). The Lion Mart does not assume any responsibility or liability for the actions, product, and content of all these and any other third parties. You should carefully review their privacy statements and other conditions of use.

   MODIFICATIONS. We may, at any time in our discretion, change the Agreement by posting such a change on The Lion Mart Business or by notifying your account administrators. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF The Lion Mart Business AFTER WE CHANGE THE AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGES. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ANY CHANGES, YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR BUSINESS ACCOUNT OR REFRAIN FROM USING THE The Lion Mart Business SERVICES IMPLICATED BY SUCH CHANGES.

   ENTIRE AGREEMENT. The Agreement constitutes the exclusive and complete agreement between us and you. We will not be bound by any term, condition, obligation, or other provision which is different from or in addition to the provisions of the Agreement or which may be in any order, receipt, acceptance, confirmation, correspondence or other document, including informational forms we complete, sign or otherwise provide to you for your convenience.

   TERM; TERMINATION. This Agreement takes effect when you create a Business Account and continues in effect until you or we terminate it. We may terminate the Agreement by providing notice to your administrators. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, and with or without notice unless required by applicable law, to refuse service; remove or edit content; modify, suspend or discontinue the availability of any features, products, or services; terminate your right to use some or all of the The Lion Mart Business services; and/or cancel orders. The Lion Mart may choose to charge, modify, or stop charging a fee for any service in its sole discretion. You may terminate the Agreement by giving us notice and closing your Business Account and each User Account. Upon termination, all rights and obligations under the Agreement automatically terminate except for rights of action occurring prior to termination, payment obligations, and Sections 1, 4, 5, 6, 7.3, 8, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15.
