  1. TERMS OF SALE

3.1 Sale of Products and Memberships

DSC sells shaving razors and other grooming supplies (the “Product(s)”) to end-user customers, including customers who purchase a recurring membership plan and/or customers who make an on-demand purchase ("Members") to receive Products one time or on a schedule they choose from the options DSC makes available (“Membership(s)”). Products are only for Members’ own personal, non-commercial use. You may not purchase Products or Memberships for further distribution or resale or for any other commercial or business purpose. The Membership and all rights and privileges conferred are personal and non-transferable.

3.2 Placing an Order

To make a one-time purchase of a Product(s) or to purchase a Subscription, Members may checkout as a guest or can create an account with us. If you create an account with us, or later claim your account after checking out as a guest, you will need to provide some personal information to register for an account and/or complete your order.  Please see our Privacy Policy for information on how we use your information. You submit your order by clicking on the ‘Pay Now' button (please note that your order may be a recurring Subscription as set out in these Terms). You should check your order and the information provided about your order carefully before you submit your order. Once you have submitted your order, we will send you an email to acknowledge and summarize your order. This does not mean that we have accepted your order

We will contact you if your order is not accepted. This will usually be because (a) Products you have ordered are unavailable; (b) we cannot authorize your payment; (c) you are not allowed to buy Products from us or we are not allowed to sell Products to you; or (d) there has been a mistake in the pricing or description of the Products you have ordered.

Our acceptance of your order will take place only when we have received payment from you and dispatched your Products. Please note that you have legal rights to cancel and we set those out in Section 4.3.

If any problems arise with your order, or with the shipping address or Payment Method (as defined below) associated with your order, and DSC is unable to resolve the problem, we may notify you via email using the address associated with your account. It is important that you keep your information current with an accurate email address that you regularly check. If problems arise with your order that we cannot resolve, your order may be cancelled and we may not be able to deliver future Products until the problem has been resolved.

3.3 Products and Product Pricing

Pricing for Products and Subscriptions (including any applicable shipping and handling fees) can be found on the DSC Services. The price that we will charge you for the Subscriptions may vary based on the number of Products you select for each shipment and to the extent applicable any discount, promotion or offer. The price that we initially charge you for the Products and Subscriptions will be the price as posted on the DSC Services on the date you first sign up for a Subscription All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated. You may view or customize the Products in each shipment by logging into your account and visiting the ‘My Subscriptions’ page or cart. If you add to or remove Products from a shipment, or change your Subscription, this may change the price that we will charge you for the Products and shipment.

We reserve the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to change all or any portion of these Terms of Service and Subscriptions, including, but not limited to, the prices for Products and Subscriptions, at any time and without incurring any liability or obligation whatsoever to you or any other person or entity, unless otherwise required by applicable law. We do not provide price protection or refunds in the event of promotions or price decreases. However, where you have a recurring  Subscription with us, we will provide you with written notice no later than thirty (30) days before the change comes into force by sending you an email, or using any other contact information we have for you in our discretion – which notice, where required by applicable law or at our discretion, will set out the new clause, or the modified clause and how it read formerly, and the date on which the change will come into effect. You may refuse the change and rescind, or cancel your Subscription without cost, penalty, cancellation fee or cancellation indemnity, by providing us with notice to that effect no later than thirty (30) days after the change comes into force, using the information provided in the notice, if required by applicable law or if the change results in increased obligations to you or a reduction of obligations on us. For instance, if we increase the price of our Product(s) for Subscriptions and you do not wish to continue to receive the relevant Product(s) at the increased price, then you must permanently remove the Product(s) from your shipment or cancel your Subscription in accordance with Section 4.3 below. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you must do this at least one (1) working day before the first date we dispatch Products to you after the price change takes effect. Please note that if you are a consumer resident in the province of Quebec, you have 30 days as of the price change to cancel or stop your Subscription. Unless you permanently remove the relevant Product(s) from your shipment or cancel your Subscription, you will be charged the increased price for the Product(s) for all deliveries of the Product(s) after the date on which the price change takes effect. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, your continued access to and/or use of the DSC Services and/or Subscription after the date specified in such notice constitutes your full acceptance of, and agreement to be legally bound by, these Terms of Service, as modified.

We endeavor to provide accurate pricing information. However, if an error occurs, we reserve the right to refuse any order for which the price displayed was erroneous. Should you base an order based on an incorrect or erroneous price, we will contact you promptly upon discovering the error to inform you that the order has been refused, and to inquire as to whether you wish to make a purchase at the correct price, if the product is available.  

3.4 Memberships and Promotions

Your Membership may (at DSC’s sole option) start with a promotional trial period, allowing you to receive your first shipment at a reduced price or to otherwise receive trial product(s) at a reduced price (“Trial”). You may also choose to add additional Products to your shipment or order on a one-time or recurring basis (“Add-On Products”). During the Trial period, your Payment Method (as defined below) will be charged for only the Trial price and shipping and taxes (if applicable) and any Add-On Products selected. For combinations with other discounts, promotions, and offers, restrictions may apply. DSC reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine your Trial eligibility.

After the Trial period, Members will receive full-size Products shipped regularly based on the sign up offer or user defined Subscription frequency and/or Products you choose at the time you signed up for the Trial (each a “Restock Box”). DSC will bill your credit, debit, or other DSC-accepted payment method (“Payment Method”) for the applicable Restock Box - based on the Product(s), Subscription type and frequency you selected, and any Add-On Products you select for each shipment in accordance with Section 4.1- at the end of the Trial period, unless you cancel your Subscription prior to the end of the Trial period in accordance with Section 4.3.

To view the specific details of your Membership, including frequency of shipments and next ship date, visit our website and click the ‘Your Account’ page. If you decide to check out as a guest you’ll need to claim your account to view the specific details of your Membership on your ‘Account’ page, including frequency of shipments and next ship date. To view your next shipment price, shipment contents, and ship date, click on ‘Box’. We may authorize your Payment Method through various methods, including authorizing it up to approximately one month of service as soon as you register. In some instances, your available balance or credit limit may be reduced to reflect this authorization during your Trial period.

You will not receive a notice from us that your promotional pricing (which may be reduced during a Trial period) has ended or that the standard rate portion of your Subscription has begun. To avoid being charged after the expiration of your Trial, you must cancel your Subscription prior to the end of the Trial. After the Trial, we will continue to charge your Payment Method for your Subscription fee (depending on your Subscription) until you cancel your Subscription.

DSC reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to withdraw or modify any Product, Subscription, Membership, Trial or other discount, offering or promotion at any time without prior notice and with no liability, where it is lawful to do so. Any and all Products, Subscriptions, Memberships, discounts, offers, or promotions advertised on the DSC Services are void where prohibited, and are subject to the posting of any official rules to such discounts, offers or promotions.

For additional information on Subscriptions, please review Section 4.1.

3.5 Refunds

If you are dissatisfied with any of our Products for any reason, we will refund the amount paid for the Product(s) in your most recent shipment delivery (if you received a discount, promotion, or offer, then the amount we will refund is the discounted price) if you provide notice to us as described below. Refund requests must be made directly to us at [email protected] within 30 days of the date of shipment. If we ask you to do so, you must return the Product(s) in accordance with the instructions which we give you. We are not liable for Products that you return to us which are damaged or lost in transit to DSC, so we advise you to return your Product(s) using a tracked delivery method. Promptly following DSC’s receipt of your request (typically within five (5) business days), or, if applicable, promptly following return of your Product(s), DSC will credit the amount paid for the returned Product(s) (less any shipping and handling costs/fees related to the original purchase, which are non-refundable) to the Payment Method you used to make the original purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, DSC does not control when a specific credit card or Payment Method company processes a chargeback transaction. You are responsible for contacting your Payment Method company if you have questions about the status of the chargeback.

We will not provide a refund for a request that is received by DSC more than 30 days after the date of original shipment. We also do not provide a refund for returned Products that are damaged due to misuse, lack of care, mishandling, accident, abuse or other abnormal use. Finally, we do not provide a refund for returned Product requests that are abusive or unfairly taking advantage of our policy, including but not limited to, repeat refund requests on the same Product or repeat refund requests without return of the applicable Product.

  1. MEMBERSHIP & SUBSCRIPTION TERMS AND CANCELLATION POLICY

4.1 Subscription; Automatic Renewal

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT EACH SUBSCRIPTIONAUTOMATICALLY RENEWS UNLESS YOU CANCEL IT OR WE SUSPEND OR TERMINATE IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS

When you sign up for a Subscription, you will have the opportunity to choose (a) the Products included in each Restock Box (subject to availability); and (b) the frequency of each delivery/payment under your Subscription, from the options provided at the time you sign up. Your default Restock Box shipping frequency will be selected at the time you sign up until you change it in accordance with these Terms.

DSC will automatically renew your Subscription and charge your Payment Method depending on the Subscription and/or Restock Box shipping frequency chosen by you, unless we or you cancel your Subscription in accordance with these Terms.

Your Payment Method will be charged at least one full business day prior to your next shipping date. We will charge your Payment Method with the applicable cost of your Restock Box, excluding any Products you 'snooze' or remove in accordance with these Terms, plus any Products you choose and any shipping and handling costs and sales or similar taxes that may be charged with your Subscription. You authorize the charges for your Membership and the renewal of your Subscription by agreeing to the automatic renewal of your Subscription and these Terms during the Membership sign-up process.

To avoid being charged for your Subscription, you must cancel your Subscription in according with Section 4.3. We will continue to bill your Payment Method on a recurring basis (depending on the Subscription and shipment shipping frequency selected) until you cancel.

4.2 Pausing and Resuming Products; Discontinuing Products

Your right to pause Products

DSC offers its Members the ability to temporarily pause any one or more Products included in their Subscription (“Pause Period”)—you can do this by logging into your account, visiting the ‘My Account’ and ‘My Subscription’ pages, and clicking the ‘Pause Subscription’ link. If you decide to check out as a guest you’ll need to claim your account to pause any one or more Products. Once you claim your account you can  then do this by logging into your account, visiting the ‘My Account’ and ‘My Subscription’ pages, and clicking the ‘Pause Subscription’ link. During the Pause Period, a Member’s account will remain active, but they will not receive the Product(s) which they have paused in their next delivery of a Restock Box. During the Pause Period, Members will remain a member of DSC, continue to receive communications from DSC via email, and continue to receive (and be charged for) the delivery of any Restock Boxes (with the exception of the paused Product(s).

The amount we charge your Payment Method will be reduced, for your next Restock Box, to reflect the fact that we will not be delivering the paused Product(s). If your purchase was entitled to a discount, promotion, or offer, then that discount, promotion, or offer, and any related change in pricing, will be recalculated (if applicable) for your next delivery, excluding the paused Product(s).

Requests to pause a Product must be received at least one (1) full working day prior to your next dispatch date to take effect for that delivery. Otherwise that request will take effect on the following delivery.

Following the delivery for which you paused a Product, the Pause Period will end and the Product which you paused will be included in subsequent deliveries of your Restock Box (unless you pause it again or permanently remove it in accordance with these Terms). You may email any questions about the Pause Period to us at [email protected].

Our right to pause or discontinue Products

From time to time, we may pause a Product included in your Restock Box—for example if there is no availability of that Product at the time of shipping. We may permanently discontinue Products included in your Membership from time to time. If this applies to you, then we will send you an email, using the email address associated with your Membership, in accordance with Section 3.3, above. Your Payment Method will not be charged for Products which are not included in your Restock Box, either because we have paused them or because they have been discontinued.

4.3 Membership & Subscription Cancellation

Cancellation by Us

We may cancel your Membership at any time if you do not make any payment to us when it is due and you still do not make payment within sixty (60) days of us reminding you that payment is due.  We reserve the right to not dispatch any Products or shipment to you unless your payment for those Products, or that Box, has cleared.

We may also cancel your Membership at any time if any of the following conditions are met: (a) if you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us to provide the Product(s), for example, your postal address; (b) if you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the Product(s) to you; or (c) if we suspect, in our sole judgment, that a purchase was fraudulently made or an account was fraudulently set up.

Cancellation or Modification by You

You may cancel or modify your Subscription at any time by logging on to your account page on the DSC website. If you decide to check out as a guest you’ll need to claim your account to  cancel or modify your Subscription.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, cancellation or modification requests received by DSC through any other channels which DSC makes available to you for this purpose may take up to five (5) business days to process—you may be charged for your next delivery if your cancellation or modification request is not received in time for processing before your next delivery date.

  1. MANDATORY AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Please read this Section 11 (“Arbitration Agreement”) carefully. It is part of your contract with DSC and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN THE UNITED STATES ONLY.  SEPARATE DISPUTE RESOLUTION TERMS BELOW APPLY TO RESIDENTS OF CANADA

Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to a customer’s satisfaction by writing to our customer service department at [email protected] or Dollar Shave Club, Attn: Customer Service, 13335 Maxella Ave, Marina del Rey, California 90292, or 1-800-372-7797. In the unlikely event that our customer service department is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction, the terms of this Section 11 govern dispute resolution between us.

Applicable to the United States: Any and all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action (including the interpretation and scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of the controversy, dispute, demand, counts, claim, or cause of action) between you and DSC or DSC's employees, agents, successors, or assigns, shall exclusively be settled through binding and confidential arbitration, except that you or DSC may take claims to small claims court if the dispute qualifies for hearing by such a court. In addition, each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration and arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, APART FROM THE NARROW EXCEPTIONS ABOVE, YOU AND DSC ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT, INCLUDING RIGHTS TO RECEIVE A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY-GENERAL ACTION, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

Arbitration shall be subject to the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law, and shall be conducted by Judicial Arbitration Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures effective July 1, 2014 (the “JAMS Rules”) and as modified by this agreement to arbitrate.   The JAMS Rules, including instructions for bringing arbitration, are available on its website at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration. The Minimum Standards are available at http://www.jamsadr.com/consumer-minimum-standards/.

You and DSC must abide by these rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action and the arbitrator shall not award class-wide relief; (b) DSC will pay its arbitration costs as required by JAMS rules, and in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, DSC will pay as much of your arbitration filing and hearing fees as the arbitrator deems is necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (c) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and (d) each side pays his, her or its own attorneys' fees and costs unless the claim(s) at issue permit the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation costs, and in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.

With the exception of subpart (a) in the paragraph above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision were not contained. If, however, subpart (a) in the paragraph above is found invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute shall be exclusively brought in state or U.S. federal court in California.

Applicable to Canada: After any dispute arises, the parties involved in the dispute may agree to resolve the dispute using arbitration. If the parties elect to use arbitration, disputes shall be referred to ADR Institute of Canada. For a copy of the procedure to file a claim, or for other information about this organization, contact them at www.adrcanada.ca.
