Buying products through VideoShops
‍By using the Services you place your orders with VideoShops checkout on Seller’s VideoShop. VideoShops’ checkout utilizes VideoShops’ payment service provider partner (“PSP”). VideoShops’ PSP processes the payment with regards to the specific order for the benefit of the Merchant. In order to process these payments we will need to share your personal data, shipping details and, in some cases, payment details that are related to such transactions with each of the Merchants from whom you are purchasing the products, but only using our secure systems. The personal data, shipping details and payment details you provide to us will be collected, stored and processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy and in accordance with the privacy and cookies policies of the Merchants from whom you have purchased the products. These Merchants are solely responsible for their use of your personal data, shipping details and payment details once we share the data with them, and you should carefully review their privacy policies before completing a transaction via VideoShops’ checkout.
‍
Payment Terms
‍(a) Anytime you click “pay”, “shop” or “buy” on the Services, you are authorizing VideoShops’ PSP to transfer funds out of your account or to debit them from your payment card (as applicable), and ultimately deposit them into the Merchant’s account. If you complete a purchase with recurring payments, you authorize VideoShops’ PSP to charge the card you used for the initial purchase for each reoccurrence.

(b) When storing your payment information into your VideoShops’ Account you are in fact storing it on VideoShops’ PSP on behalf of VideoShops, and you agree that the Merchant may charge you in accordance with your agreement with such Merchant for each transaction using the stored payment information. When you complete a transaction using your VideoShops’ Account, you agree that VideoShops’ PSP may use the information stored in your VideoShops’ Account to initiate the payment process with the Merchant for your transaction and to fulfill the order.

(c) By submitting your payment request, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the payment method and authorize VideoShops’ PSP to (1) debit, withdraw or charge your payment method and (2) to initiate any credit, debit or charge to your payment method in order to process any returns, chargebacks, reversals, refunds, corrections or other necessary adjustments. All payment requests are subject to authorization by your card issuer, financial institution or payment network.

(d) A payment request does not necessarily ensure that VideoShops’ PSP will accept your request. VideoShops’ PSP reserves the right to refuse, suspend, or cancel the request at their sole discretion.

(e) Once VideoShops’ PSP receives a properly completed payment request from you and authorized by your card issuer, payment network or other financial institution, authorization of your form of payment is received and if VideoShops’ PSP accepts your order, VideoShops will promptly place your order in line for fulfillment.

(f) If you make a purchase in a currency other than United States Dollars (“USD”), you acknowledge and agree to be charged and, if applicable, refunded according to the then-current exchange rate set by your card issuer.

(g) Additional terms and conditions may apply to your payment request and to specific portions or features of the Services including VideoShops’ PSP specific terms and rules related to your use of your payment method such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover payment networks and bank transfers. You agree to abide by such other terms and conditions, including where applicable representing that you are of sufficient legal age to use or participate in such service or feature. These Terms do not alter the Terms you’ve agreed to with a Merchant, except with respect to the direct relationship between you and VideoShops.

(h) Orders may be subject to additional taxes, duties and charges. Please be aware that the price of a Merchant product may change at checkout if it is subject to any taxes, duties, fees, levies or delivery charges applied in the location you have selected for the delivery of your order. Where possible, VideoShops will calculate these charges on your behalf and add them to the total cost of your order. Where it is not possible for VideoShops to calculate and charge additional taxes, duties and charges at checkout, including customs charges, you may be responsible for the payment of these charges when you receive your order.
‍
Your Relationship with Merchants
‍VideoShops only facilitates the transactions conducted on VideoShops’ Platform and does not act as the merchant of record or as the seller of record. You are purchasing goods and/or services from the Merchants and your purchase is governed by any Merchant terms and conditions offered or any contract between you and the Merchant. Accordingly, the contract formed by the completion of a sale for the Merchant products is a contract between you and the Merchant . VideoShops is not a party to that contract nor does VideoShops accept any liability, responsibility or obligation for the terms therein. The Merchant is solely responsible for the sale of the Merchant’s products and is solely responsible for customer service issues in connection therewith. You must contact the Merchant to resolve any issues you have with respect to the goods and services you ordered or purchased from the Merchant, including any issues relating to shipping and delivery, product warranty, product return, refund, exchange, and the terms of any agreements you entered into with the Merchant in connection with your order or purchase. You acknowledge and agree that VideoShops is not responsible for any of these issues.
‍
You also acknowledge and agree that VideoShops is not in any way responsible for the quality, usability, or any other element of the goods or services you order or purchase from a Merchant.

VideoShops does not warrant the accuracy or reliability of any information or marketing messages contained in Merchant websites linked to the Services.
‍
If you have dispute rights through your credit card issuer, any disputes filed with your credit card issuer shall be between you and the issuer, and VideoShops shall not be held liable for such disputes.
‍
You agree that we can make information about your purchase available to the Merchant through a Merchant dashboard and/or our API in order for the Merchant to fulfill your order, each of which will require the Merchant to pass certain authentication measures. If your Merchant operates through a third party platform, such as Shopify, your purchase information may be shared with that platform through the Merchant.

‍Anything you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Services, including any videos submitted through the VideoShops’ Platform, is your “User Submission.” User Submissions are viewable by other users. In order to display your User Submissions on the VideoShops’ Platform, and to allow other users to view them (where applicable), you grant us certain rights in those User Submissions. Please note that all of the following licenses are subject to our Privacy Policy to the extent they relate to User Submissions that are also your personally-identifiable information.
‍
For all User Submissions, you hereby grant VideoShops a license to translate, modify (for technical purposes, for example making sure your content is viewable on an iPhone as well as an Android) and reproduce and otherwise act with respect to such User Submissions, in each case to enable us to operate the Services, as described in more detail below. This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.

If you share a User Submission publicly on the VideoShops’ Platform or if you provide us with any feedback, suggestions, improvements, enhancements, and/or feature requests relating to the Services (each of the foregoing, a “Public User Submission”), then you grant VideoShops the licenses above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Public User Submission for the purpose of making that Public User Submission accessible to all VideoShops users and providing the VideoShops’ Platform necessary to do so, as well as all other rights necessary to use and exercise all rights in that Public User Submission in connection with the Services and/or otherwise in connection with Company’s business, which may include licensing to third parties.

‍
You agree that the licenses you grant are royalty-free, perpetual, sublicensable, irrevocable, and worldwide, provided that when you delete your VideoShops account, we will stop displaying your User Submissions (other than Public User Submissions, which may remain fully available) to other users (if applicable), but you understand and agree that it may not be possible to completely delete that content from VideoShops’ records, and that your User Submissions may remain viewable elsewhere to the extent that they were copied or stored by other users.
‍
Finally, you understand and agree that VideoShops, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Services to our users (including you), may need to make changes to your User Submissions to conform and adapt those User Submissions to the technical requirements of connection networks, devices, services, or media, and the foregoing licenses include the rights to do so.
‍
What if I see something on the VideoShops’ Platform that infringes my copyright?
‍We respect the intellectual property rights of others, and we reserve the right to delete or disable Content alleged to be infringing, and to terminate the accounts of repeat alleged infringers.
‍
Who is responsible for what I see and do on the VideoShops’ Platform?
‍Any information or content publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Services is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such content originated, and you access all such information and content at your own risk, and we aren’t liable for any errors or omissions in that information or content or for any damages or loss you might suffer in connection with it.

‍
If there is a dispute involving the Services, or between users and any third party, you agree that VideoShops is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you release VideoShops, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or our Services. If you are a California resident, you shall and hereby do waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "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.
‍
Will VideoShops ever change the Services?
‍We’re always trying to improve the Services, so they may change over time.

By way of example, all of the following will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any terms regarding ownership of intellectual property rights, and terms regarding disputes between us, including without limitation the arbitration agreement.
‍
What else do I need to know?
‍Neither VideoShops nor its licensors or suppliers make any representations or warranties concerning any content contained in or accessed through the Services, and we will not be responsible or liable for the accuracy, copyright compliance, legality, or decency of material contained in or accessed through the Services. We (and our licensors and suppliers) make no representations or warranties regarding suggestions or recommendations of services or products offered or purchased through the Services Products and services purchased or offered (whether or not following such recommendations and suggestions) through the Services are provided “AS IS” and without any warranty of any kind from VideoShops or others (unless, with respect to such others only, provided expressly and unambiguously in writing by a designated third party for a specific product.) THE SERVICES AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED BY VIDEOSHOPS (AND ITS LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS) ON AN “AS-IS” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR THAT USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
‍
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) SHALL VIDEOSHOPS (OR ITS LICENSORS OR SUPPLIERS) BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON FOR (A) ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, OR COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR (B) ANY AMOUNT, IN THE AGGREGATE, IN EXCESS OF THE GREATER OF (A) $100, OR (B) ANY MATTER BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
‍
To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold VideoShops, its affiliates, officers, agents, employees, and partners harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages (actual and consequential), losses and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or in any way related to any third party claims relating to (a) your use of the Services (including any actions taken by a third party using your account), (b) your User Submissions, and (c) your violation of these Terms. In the event of such a claim, suit, or action (“Claim”), we will attempt to provide notice of the Claim to the contact information we have for your account (provided that failure to deliver such notice shall not eliminate or reduce your indemnification obligations hereunder).
You may not assign, delegate or transfer these Terms or your rights or obligations hereunder, or your VideoShops’ Platform account, in any way (by operation of law or otherwise) without VideoShops’ prior written consent. We may transfer, assign, or delegate these Terms and our rights and obligations without consent.
‍
These Terms are governed by and will be construed under the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.
‍
Please read the following ARBITRATION AGREEMENT carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with VideoShops and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us. Both you and VideoShops acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms, VideoShops’ officers, directors, employees and independent contractors (“Personnel”) are third party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third party beneficiary hereof.
‍
Any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Platform, Inc. ("JAMS") then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction.
‍
VideoShops will pay all arbitration filing fees and arbitrator’s costs and expenses upon your written request given prior to the commencement of the arbitration. You are responsible for all additional fees and costs that you incur in the arbitration, including, but not limited to, attorneys or expert witnesses. Fees and costs may be awarded as provided pursuant to applicable law.
‍
Furthermore, either you or VideoShops may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in New York or any United States county where you live or work.
YOU AND VIDEOSHOPS WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. You and VideoShops are instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and VideoShops over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND VIDEOSHOPS WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.
‍
ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration; instead all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set forth herein.
‍
You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Section by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: Nowwith Ventures, Inc. doing business as “VideoShops”, 167-177 Lafayette Street, Suite 300, New York, NY 10013, postmarked within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. You must include (1) your name and residence address; (2) the email address and/or telephone number associated with your account; and (3) a clear statement that you want to opt out of these Terms’ arbitration agreement.
If you send the opt-out notice as provided herein, and/or in any circumstances where the foregoing arbitration agreement permits either you or VideoShops to litigate any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms in court, then the foregoing arbitration agreement will not apply to either party and both you and VideoShops agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or federal courts located in New York, New York.
‍
You will be responsible for paying, withholding, filing, and reporting all taxes, duties, and other governmental assessments associated with your activity in connection with the Services.
