General Terms and Conditions

Quoted slip resistance data on our web site are average values. It is up to the user to satisfy himself or herself that our products are suitable for the user’s situation. The seller cannot accept any liability for the use to which products are put, or the way in which they are used. Any recommendations from the seller are made in good faith but cannot override the obligation of the user to satisfy himself at all times as to the varying environmental conditions, standards of application and maintenance procedures that alter the properties of our materials or other materials with which they are expected to perform.

Although all our anti-slip tapes are designed for wet use, they are not intended to be constantly submerged, such as in the bottom of a pool.

For California residents, sales tax will be added to your total based on your location. For residents of all other states, sales tax is not due.

Stated prices on our website are based on the purchaser of our products and services purchasing online (where an automated receipt will be generated and automatically emailed to you for your records). If the purchaser needs us to spend time filling out forms, accepting payment terms other than “in advance online”, and/or requires us to create additional paperwork such as invoices, additional receipts, purchase orders, or anything else that takes time to create, then our prices are subject to increases at our discretion.

Privacy

We take privacy seriously here at Safety Direct America. Your information will be kept completely private and all information collected by the ordering process will be used for filling your order only. We are completely PCI Compliant and make sure to keep our servers and transactions secure. Here is more detailed information on our Privacy Policy.

  • Technical Assets: Source code, site design, and database structures.

Limited License: You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to access and use the website strictly in accordance with these terms.

Prohibited Actions: You may not reproduce, redistribute, or sell any content from this website without express written permission from Safety Direct America. Any unauthorized use of the materials appearing on this site may violate copyright, trademark, and other applicable laws.

Extent of Liabilities

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Safety Direct America shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

  1. Your access to or use of (or inability to access or use) the Service.
  2. Any conduct or content of any third party on the Service.
  3. Any content obtained from the Service.
  4. Unauthorized access, use, or alteration of your transmissions or content.

In no event shall the aggregate liability of Safety Direct America exceed the greater of one hundred US dollars ($100.00) or the amount you paid us, if any, in the last six months for the services giving rise to the claim.

The Service and all products delivered to you through the Service are (except as expressly stated by us) provided ‘as is’ and ‘as available’ for your use, without any representation, warranties, or conditions of any kind, either express or implied.

Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.

Informal Resolution: Before filing a formal legal claim, you agree to attempt to resolve the dispute informally by contacting our Management Department at john.sotter@safetydirectamerica.com. We will attempt to resolve the matter via email within 30 days of receiving your notice.

Agreement to Arbitrate: If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days, you and Safety Direct America agree to resolve any claims through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. This includes claims relating to the interpretation or application of this “Dispute Resolution”. Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights).              

No Class Actions: You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis. You may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action.

Governing Law & Venue: These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. Any disputes not subject to arbitration shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Mendocino County, California.

Payment and Billing

Payment Methods: We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and PayPal. By submitting an order, you represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use the payment method provided.

Pricing and Availability: All prices are shown in USD and exclude taxes and shipping unless otherwise stated. We reserve the right to change prices at any time; however, changes will not affect orders that have already been confirmed.

Order Validation: We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order if fraud or an unauthorized or illegal transaction is suspected. We may also require additional verification of information before accepting any order.

Third-Party Processing: Payments are processed through secure third-party gateways. Safety Direct America does not store your full credit card information. We are not responsible for any errors, downtime, or security breaches caused by these third-party payment processors.

Taxes: You are responsible for any sales, use, duty, or other governmental taxes or fees due with respect to your purchase. We will collect sales tax if we determine we have a legal obligation to do so.
