Ordering, Delivery, Payments, and Billing

Paid Services and Terms of Sale

Certain of our Services, including the purchase of any products or subscriptions (such as monthly AUTONOMY subscriptions) offered by us, may be subject to payments now or in the future (the “Paid Services”), which in certain cases may include recurring, automatically renewing payment obligations (as further described in the “Auto-Renewals and Recurring Billing for Monthly AUTONOMY Subsciptions and Other Subscription Services” section below). Please see our Help / FAQ for a description of the current Paid Services, our shipping terms, and cancellation and refund policies. Please note that any additional payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service are deemed part of these Terms.

We reserve the right to change the prices and available Paid Services at any time. Quantities of some products may be limited and stock cannot always be guaranteed. Products offered for sale by us are for sale only in the United States and all prices are quoted in U.S. dollars. We may occasionally make errors in the stated prices, and we reserve the right to correct errors (whether by changing information on the website or by informing you of the error and giving you an opportunity to cancel your order) or to update Paid Services information at any time without notice.

You may place an order for Paid Services at any time (subject to any planned or unplanned downtime). You may check and correct any input errors in your order up until the point at which you submit your order to us by clicking the “Purchase” button on the checkout page. An order submitted by you constitutes a legally binding offer given by you to us to purchase the Paid Services specified in that order, subject to these Terms, at the price and on the terms stated when you sign up or place your order. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we reserve the right to refuse or limit any orders or limit any quantities. We will not be liable if a product is unavailable or if shipment is delayed. All orders are non-cancelable; we may grant or deny cancellation requests in our sole and absolute discretion. We reserve the right to provide substantially similar products to fulfill your order.

Your order will not be considered accepted until we have received payment of the purchase price of your order. We may send an acknowledgment of our receipt of your order to the email address you provide, after your payment for the order has been processed, so that you may print the information for your records. Unless otherwise stated at the time you place your order, title and risk of loss pass to you upon delivery to the common carrier for shipment, provided full payment of all sums due in respect of the product(s), including any delivery charges, has been received. By purchasing products on the website for shipment, you are asking us to engage a common carrier to deliver your order. In doing so, we are providing a service to and acting on behalf of you. We reserve the right to choose any and all procedures, packaging and the common carrier of sold products. We may not be able to have your order shipped to a post office box, to certain addresses or on certain days. We reserve the right to ship your order in multiple boxes or shipments.

Our products and services, including, without limitation, our Paid Services, are for your personal, non-commercial use, and once delivered to you may not be resold, redistributed, exported or used for any other commercial purpose. The rights you have under these Terms are personal to you and are non-transferable.

We do not allow returns or substitutions of products. All sales are final. Agreement to these Terms and Conditions also constitutes agreement to our Returns Policy.

Billing

We use third-party payment processors, such as Stripe, PayPal, Squarespace, and Shopify (collectively, the “Payment Processor”) to bill you through a payment account linked to your account on the Services (your “Billing Account”) or through the guest checkout feature on the Services for the Paid Services. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor in addition to these Terms. More information is available in our Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for errors by the Payment Processor. By choosing to use Paid Services, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such Paid Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms and you authorize us, through the Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment Method”). You agree to make payments using that selected Payment Method. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that the Payment Processor makes even if it has already requested or received payment.

Payment Method

The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account or through the guest checkout feature upon demand.

Auto-Renewals and Recurring Billing for Monthly AUTONOMY Subscriptions and Other Subscription Services

Some of the Paid Services, such as the purchase of AUTONOMY products, may consist of an initial period for which there is a one-time charge or a Trial Offer (as defined below), followed by recurring periodic charges as agreed to by you when you sign up for such auto-replacing products (“Subscription Services”). The Subscription Services give you the ability to specify how regularly you would like to order any auto-replacing products. Unless you opt out of a Subscription Service, which can be done via the methods described below, the Subscription Services that you have signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term you originally selected, at the then-current non-promotional rate. More information on Subscription Services can be found at our Help / FAQ page. By choosing a Subscription Service, you acknowledge that such Subscription Service has an initial and recurring payment feature, and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to the effective date of cancellation of such Subscription Service. All recurring payments relating to Subscription Services are fully earned upon payment.

To change or cancel your Subscription Services at any time, go to your account or email us at team@autonomyfoods.com. If you terminate a Subscription Service, your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current subscription term expires.

WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION, OR TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD OR SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES, GO TO YOUR ACCOUNT, OR CONTACT US AT THE EMAIL ADDRESS ABOVE.

Current Information Required

You must provide current, complete and accurate information for your Billing Account. You must promptly update all information to keep your Billing Account current, complete and accurate (such as a change in billing address, credit card number or credit card expiration date), and you must promptly notify us or our Payment Processor if your Payment Method is canceled (e.g., for loss or theft) or if you become aware of a potential breach of security, such as the unauthorized disclosure or use of your user name or password. Changes to such information can be made on your Account. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.

Change in Amount Authorized

If the amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), you have the right to receive, and we shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction. If, on receipt of such notice, you do not wish to continue with the purchase, you may cancel at any time before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with your payment provider will govern your use of your Payment Method. You agree that we may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.

Reaffirmation of Authorization

Your non-termination or continued use of a Paid Service (including, without limitation, Subscription Services) reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method for that Paid Service. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Paid Service.

Free Trials and Other Promotions

Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a Paid Service (a “Trial Offer”) must be used within the specified time of the Trial Offer. You will be required to have a valid Payment Method on file in order to initiate a Trial Offer. You must stop using a Paid Service before the end of the Trial Offer period in order to avoid being charged for that Paid Service. If you cancel prior to the end of the Trial Offer period and are inadvertently charged for a Paid Service, please contact us at team@autonomyfoods.com. Trial Offers are one-time only for new customers and are limited to one per household. Additional terms and limitations may apply and will be more fully explained at the time you sign up for the Trial Offer. Any such additional terms and limitations are deemed part of these Terms.

Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you will indemnify, defend and hold harmless AUTONOME, Inc. and our officers, directors, agents, partners and employees (individually and collectively, the “AUTONOME, Inc. Parties”) from and against any losses, liabilities, claims, demands, damages, expenses or costs (“Claims”) arising out of or related to (a) your access to or use of the Services; (b) your Feedback; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation, misappropriation or infringement of any rights of another (including intellectual property rights or privacy rights); (e) your conduct in connection with the Services and (e) your violation of any law or rights of a third-party. You agree to promptly notify AUTONOME, Inc. Parties of any third-party Claims, cooperate with AUTONOME, Inc. Parties in defending such Claims and pay all fees, costs and expenses associated with defending such Claims (including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees). You also agree that the AUTONOME, Inc. Parties will have control of the defense or settlement, at AUTONOME, Inc.'s sole option, of any third-party Claims. This indemnity is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other indemnities set forth in a written agreement between you and AUTONOME, Inc. or the other AUTONOME, Inc. Parties.

Disclaimers

Your use of our Services and any products is at your sole risk. Except as otherwise provided in writing by us, our Services, any product provided thereunder, and any content therein are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. In addition, AUTONOME, Inc. does not represent or warrant that our Services, products, or any results therefrom are or will be accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. Without limiting the foregoing, we and our officers, directors, employees, agents, suppliers, partners and content providers do not warrant that: (i) the Services or products will be secure or available at any particular time or location; (ii) any defects or errors will be corrected; (iii) any content or software available at or through the Services is free of viruses or other harmful components; or (iv) the results of using the services will meet your requirements. You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Services. Some jurisdictions limit or do not allow the disclaimer of implied or other warranties, so the above disclaimers may not apply to you.

AUTONOME, Inc. does not produce medical products nor are any of the practices outlined in any of its content (be that content on the AUTONOMY website at www.autonomyfoods.com, on any social media channel, blog or in any article or other media media channel) necessarily approved medical or therapeutic practices. This is to say that it is entirely at the user’s discretion to use our products, Services or undertake our practices (e.g. breath work, cold exposure, fasting or any other practice) and should you have any doubt as to your ability to use our products, Services or undertake our practices or as to the effect they will have on you or others, then you must consult with your medical practitioner beforehand and seek their professional approval. In addition to the above if you have any doubt as to the techniques and practices we may describe on the AUTONOMY website at www.autonomyfoods.com, on any social media channel, blog or in any article or other media media channel, seek the advice of a professional before undertaking such practices or techniques. In breath work practices in particular you agree to perform such practices whilst lying down and NEVER near water and should you decide to do them from a seated position you accept full responsibility for your welfare.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, AUTONOME, Inc. and the other AUTONOME, Inc. Parties will not be liable to you under any theory of liability—whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability (where not prohibited by law), warranty, or otherwise—for any indirect, consequential, exemplary (where not prohibited by law), incidental, punitive (where not prohibited by law), or special damages or lost profits, even if AUTONOME, Inc. or the other AUTONOME, Inc. Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

The total liability of AUTONOME, Inc. and the other AUTONOME, Inc. Parties for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Services, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to the greater of $100 or the amount paid by you to use our Services.

The limitations set forth in this Section will not limit or exclude liability for the gross negligence, fraud or intentional misconduct of AUTONOME, Inc. or the other AUTONOME, Inc. Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

Release

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release AUTONOME, Inc. and the other AUTONOME, Inc. Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between users and the acts or omissions of third parties. If you are a consumer who resides in California, you hereby waive your rights under California Civil Code § 1542, which provides: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

Transfer and Processing Data

In order for us to provide our Services, you agree that we may process, transfer and store information about you in the United States and other countries, where you may not have the same rights and protections as you do under local law.

Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration

Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with AUTONOME, Inc. and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration agreement. In addition, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial.

No Representative Actions. You and AUTONOME, Inc. agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services is personal to you and AUTONOME, Inc. and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.

Arbitration of Disputes. Except for small claims disputes in which you or AUTONOME, Inc. seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or AUTONOME, Inc. seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and AUTONOME, Inc. waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services resolved in court. Instead, for any dispute or claim that you have against AUTONOME, Inc. or relating in any way to the Services, you agree to first contact AUTONOME, Inc. and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to AUTONOME, Inc. by email at AUTONOME, Inc. or by certified mail addressed to ATTN: Legal, AUTONOME Inc 291 Canon View Road, Boulder CO 80302. The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and AUTONOME, Inc. cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings will be held in Boulder, CO or may be conducted telephonically or via video conference for disputes alleging damages less than $1,000, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”). The most recent version of the JAMS Rules are available on the JAMS website and are hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

You and AUTONOME, Inc. agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability. The arbitrator may conduct only an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

The arbitrator, AUTONOME, Inc., and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

Both parties will be responsible for their respective JAMS fees and costs. You and AUTONOME, Inc. agree that the state or federal courts of the State of Colorado and the United States sitting in Denver, Colorado have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and AUTONOME, Inc. will not have the right to assert the claim.

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section by emailing us at team@autonomyfoods.com. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with the following section.

If any portion of this Section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section will be enforceable.

Governing Law and Venue

Any dispute arising from these Terms and your use of the Services will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Colorado, except to the extent preempted by U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of Colorado or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of Colorado and the United States, respectively, sitting in Denver, Colorado.

Modifying and Terminating our Services

We reserve the right to modify our Services or to suspend or stop providing all or portions of our Services at any time with or without cause, with or without notice, effective immediately, which may result in the forfeiture and destruction of all information associated with your which account. You also have the right to stop using our Services at any time. We are not responsible for any loss or harm related to your inability to access or use our Services.

Severability

If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Miscellaneous

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and AUTONOME, Inc. relating to your access to and use of our Services. Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Terms, Sections 4, 7, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, and 20 survive any expiration or termination of these Terms. The failure of AUTONOME, Inc. to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity. You agree that communications and transactions between us may be conducted electronically. These Terms may not be transferred, assigned or delegated by you, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent, and any attempted transfer, assignment or delegation without such consent will be void and without effect. We may freely transfer, assign or delegate these Terms or the Services, in whole or in part, without your prior written consent. Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, California consumers are entitled to the following specific consumer rights notice: The Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs may be contacted in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite N-112, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at +1(800)952-5210.
