Whenever you choose to pay by ACH, you are authorizing Brand Essentials (or its agent) to debit your bank account for the total amount of the fees due. Your transaction must be payable in U.S. dollars. Brand Essentials, in its sole discretion, may refuse this payment option service to anyone or any user without notice for any reason at any time. Transactions that we process using your bank account will be identified as “Brand Essentials” (or similar identifier) on the statement issued by your bank or other financial institution holding your account. All questions relating to any transactions made using your bank account by us should be initially directed to us, but may also require involvement of your bank.

By choosing your bank account as your payment method, you agree that: (a) you have read, understand and agree to these Terms of Service, and that this agreement constitutes a “writing signed by you” under any applicable law or regulation, (b) you consent to the electronic delivery of the disclosures contained in these Terms of Service, (c) you authorize Brand Essentials (or its agent) to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate any dispute involving your payment, which may include ordering a credit report and performing other credit checks or verifying the information you provide against third party databases, and (d) you authorize Brand Essentials (or its agent) to initiate one or more ACH debit entries (withdrawals), and you authorize the financial institution that holds your bank account to deduct such payments, in the amounts and frequency designated in your then-current payment plan.

If you believe that any payment transaction initiated by Brand Essentials (or its agent) with respect to your bank account is erroneous, or if you need more information about any such transaction, you should contact us as soon as possible as at info@brand—essentials.com. Notify us at once if you believe the password associated with your account has been lost or stolen, or if someone has attempted (or may attempt) to make a transfer from your bank account without your permission. We reserve the right to cancel the ability to pay by bank account for any reason at any time.

Federal law limits your liability for any fraudulent, erroneous unauthorized transaction from your bank account based on how quickly you report it to your financial institution. As general rule, you should report any fraudulent, erroneous or unauthorized transactions to your bank within 60 days after the questionable transaction FIRST appeared on your bank account statement. You should contact your bank for more information about the policies and procedures that apply to your account and any unauthorized transactions, including any limits on your liability.

You shall pay the fees set forth in the applicable checkout page, order form, or invoice in accordance with the payment terms set forth therein. Fees are non-refundable unless otherwise set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation the applicable order Form) or as required by applicable laws. If you dispute any charges you must let Brand Essentials know within thirty (30) days after the date that Brand Essentials charges you. We reserve the right to change Brand Essentials’s prices. If Brand Essentials does change prices, Brand Essentials will provide notice of the change through the Service user interface, a pop-up notice, email, or through other reasonable means, at Brand Essentials’s option, at least thirty (30) days before the change is to take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the price change becomes effective constitutes your agreement to pay the changed amount. You will be responsible for all taxes associated with the Service, other than taxes based on Brand Essentials’s net income.

Overdue payments will be subject to interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or the maximum allowable under applicable laws, whichever is less, and you will indemnify and hold Brand Essentials harmless from and against any costs incurred in connection with its collection of any fees or interest properly due hereunder.

• your physical or electronic signature;
• identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled;

With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and Brand Essentials submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within New York, NY. The failure of Brand Essentials to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

The Service may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms of Service or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Service. Brand Essentials will not be in default hereunder by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations where such failure or delay is due to civil disturbances, riot, epidemic, hostilities, war, terrorist attack, embargo, natural disaster, acts of God, flood, fire, sabotage, fluctuations or unavailability of electrical power, network access or equipment, or any other circumstances or causes beyond Brand Essentials’s reasonable control.

You agree that Brand Essentials, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service and remove and discard any content within the Service, for any reason, including for lack of use or if Brand Essentials believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms of Service.
