6. TRANSACTIONS

Before You enroll in the Service carefully review the Terms of Use, Notice of Privacy. If you wish to purchase services made available by or through the Service (each such activity, a “Transaction”), you may be asked to supply certain information applicable to your Transaction, including, without limitation, credit card and other information. Any information that you provide to Parthen will be handled in the manner described in our Notice of Privacy Practices below. You agree that all information that you provide in connection with your Transaction will be accurate, current, and complete. You agree to pay all charges incurred by you or any users of your account and credit card at the price(s) set forth on the Service at the time of your Transaction, however, such prices do not include and you must pay any excise, sales, use, or like taxes associated with the Transaction. Prices advertised on the Service are subject to an increase in the amount of any such tax that Parthen may be required to collect or pay in connection with the Transaction. You are responsible for (and will indemnify the Parthen Parties against) all taxes associated with Transactions entered into by you or users of your account through the Service (excepting taxes based on Parthen’s income).

a. You agree that you will not attempt to conceal your identity by using multiple Internet Protocol addresses or email addresses to use or to enter Transactions on the Service. You grant Parthen the right to provide any information you submit to third parties for purposes of facilitating the completion of Transactions initiated by you or on your behalf. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of any Transaction.

b) No Offers. Statements made on the Service concerning our products or services do not constitute an offer, but are merely solicitations of an offer, where appropriate. References to and information concerning products and services on the Service are not complete and must be read in conjunction with the specific information accompanying such products or services, as the same may change from time to time.

c) Other Agreements/Terms of Sale. All products and services sold by us via the Service are sold in accordance with any terms of sale separately provided related to such sales. You may, from time to time, enter into additional written agreements with Parthen in connection with other products, services, or events made available by or through Parthen. In the event that any terms or provisions of such a written agreement or terms of sale conflict with the provisions of these TOU, the terms and provisions of the written agreement or terms of sale shall prevail.

d) Pricing. Pricing for Transactions shall be as set forth on the Service, which pricing may be changed by Parthen from time to time. Parthen may choose to temporarily change the pricing for promotional events or new products or services, and such changes shall be immediately effective when Parthen posts the temporary pricing change to the Service.

e) Payment Processing. When you conduct a Transaction, the processing of the Transaction and collection of payments may be handled by our payment processor. Transactions will be processed only after a billing address, and other billing information has been verified. If We receive incorrect billing or credit card account information, the processing of your Transaction will be canceled without further notice.

f) Transaction Confirmation. If you do not receive a confirmation number (in the form of a confirmation page or email) after submitting payment information, or if you experience an error message or service interruption after submitting payment information, it is your responsibility to confirm with Parthen whether or not your Transaction has been completed.

g) Refunds. Before entering a Transaction on the Service, carefully review the Service and all policies and terms. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Parthen, We will not issue refunds. In the event that the provisions of this Section conflict with any mandatory refund policies imposed by our payment processor, as may be applicable to a particular Transaction, the terms of such mandatory refund policy shall prevail. Additionally, certain legislation and consumer protection laws and regulations may confer you with rights, warranties, guarantees, and remedies relating to your Transaction that cannot be excluded, restricted, or modified.

h) Chargebacks. You agree that you will not attempt to circumvent any refund prohibitions with regard to Transactions on the Service. You will not dispute or otherwise seek a “chargeback” from the company whose credit card you used on the Service. Should you do so, your access may be canceled, and Parthen may, in its sole discretion, refuse to honor pending and future Transactions made from all credit card accounts or online accounts on which such chargebacks have been made, and may prohibit all persons in whose name the credit card accounts exist, and any person who accesses any associated online account or credit card or who otherwise breaches this provision, from using the Service.

22. GENERAL

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time. These TOU and notice of Privacy constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all other agreements, statements, and other arrangements between the parties in relation to the subject matter hereof. If any provision of these TOU is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary and replaced with a valid provision that best embodies the intent of these TOU, so that these TOU shall remain in full force and effect. Each party acknowledges that it has not relied on or been induced to enter these TOU by a representation other than those expressly set out in these TOU. Parthen and You do not intend to confer, and these TOU will not be construed as conferring, any right, remedy, obligation, or liability of any kind on any person other than Parthen, You, and each party’s successors and assigns. No modification, alteration, or waiver of any of the provisions of these TOU will be effective unless in writing and signed on behalf of each of the parties. No waiver of any of these TOU shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and Parthen’s failure to assert any right or provision under these TOU shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that the Service shall be deemed solely based in South Dakota, United States of America, and the Service shall be deemed a passive Service that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Parthen in jurisdictions other than South Dakota. These TOU are governed by United States and South Dakota law, without regard to conflict of law provisions, and the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Lincoln County, South Dakota, in relation to any dispute between them arising out of the subject matter of these TOU.
