If You do not agree to be bound by all of the foregoing, and otherwise with these Terms and Conditions of Use, You may not use this Site or purchase any products from this Site.  The right to purchase items from the Site is solely for personal use and not for any commercial use, or use on behalf of any third party, except as explicitly permitted in writing by SD in its sole discretion.

  • CONDITIONAL ACCESS TO AND USE OF SITE
    To access this Site, or some of the resources it offers, You may be asked to provide certain information. It is a condition of Your use of this Site that all the information You provide on this Site will be correct, current, and complete. If SD believes the information You provide is not correct, current, or complete, SD has the right to refuse You access to this Site or any of its resources and to terminate or suspend Your access at any time.
  • PROHIBITED USE OF THE SITE

For example, You may not (and may not authorize any party to): (i) co-brand this site, (ii) frame this Site, or (iii) use the Site for any commercial purpose without the prior written permission of an authorized representative of SD.

For purposes of this Agreement, “co-branding” means to display a name, logo, or trademark, in such a manner as is reasonably likely to give a user the impression that such party has the right to display, publish, or distribute this site or content accessible within this site. Further, You may not use SD’s Site in any manner that could disable, overburden, damage, or impair the Site or interfere with any other party’s use and enjoyment of the Site. You may not obtain or attempt to obtain any materials, content, or information through any means not intentionally made available or provided for through the Site.

III. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Except as provided in this Agreement, SD does not grant You any express or implied right to any patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secret information and You acknowledge and agree that You will not display, disseminate, distribute, or use the Intellectual Property.

In accordance with the Limited Liability section of this Agreement, as part of the use of this Site, You further agree not to bring any claim against SD, its owners, members, officers, directors, employees, agents, sponsors, affiliates, third party content providers, licensors, licensees or the like for any claim of intellectual property infringement.

SD is not related to, nor does it have discretion to alter, update, or control the content on a Linked Site. You access any Linked Sites at Your own risk.

SD has not reviewed Linked Sites and is not responsible for the content of those sites. The fact that SD has provided a link to a website is not an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, or affiliation with respect to such website, its owners, or its providers.

You, and on behalf of Your agents, attorneys, employees, predecessors-in-interest, successors-in-interest, partners, associates, members, officers, directors, affiliates, subsidiaries, associations, shareholders, trusts, trustees, heirs, executors, assigns, and transferees, hereby fully release, discharge, waive, and absolutely forgive SD, and its owners, members, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, predecessors-in-interest, successors-in-interest, business partners, associates, suppliers (including, without limitation, Three Ways Better, LLC and other suppliers or makers of the products sold on the Site), affiliates, subsidiaries, associations, shareholders, trusts, trustees, heirs, executors, assigns, and transferees (collectively, the “SD Indemnified Parties”), from any and all lawsuits, demands, controversies, disputes, actions, causes of action, rights to accountings, fees, invoices, billings, proceedings, obligations, debts, liabilities, costs, disbursements, expenses, attorneys’ fees, damages and other claims of whatever character, nature and kind, in law or in equity, past, present or future, known nor unknown, joint or several, suspected or unsuspected, arising from or relating to Your use of the Site and/or any works obtained therefrom (collectively, “Claims”).

You understand that SD cannot and does not guarantee or warrant that files available on the Internet will be free of viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other code that may manifest contaminating or destructive properties. You are responsible for implementing sufficient procedures and checkpoints to satisfy Your particular requirements for accuracy of data input and output, and for maintaining a means external to this Site for any reconstruction of any lost data.  SD does not assume any responsibility or risk for Your use of the Internet.

  • LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
    The SD Indemnified Parties will not be liable for any incidental, direct, indirect, punitive, actual, consequential, special, exemplary, or other damages, including lost data, revenue or income, pain and suffering, emotional distress, or similar damages, even if the SD Indemnified Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

The foregoing limitation applies to claims based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), liability, or any other legal theory. Some jurisdictions do not allow limiting liability for certain damages. In such jurisdictions, the SD Indemnified Parties’ liability shall be limited to the extent permitted by law. In no event will the collective liability of the SD Indemnified Parties to any party (regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) exceed the greater of $50 or the amount You have paid to SD for the applicable good or service out of which liability arose.

VII. INDEMNIFICATION
