COMMERCIAL TERMS

When you confirm a purchase transaction on this Website, you agree to be bound by and pay for that transaction. Your total price may include taxes, handling fees, and shipping costs, which you are responsible for paying. Except as otherwise expressly specified, all sales are final.

The inclusion of any products or services on this Website at a particular time does not imply or warrant that these products or services will be available at any time. For example, products/services included on this Website may be unavailable, may have different attributes than those listed or may actually carry a different price than that stated on this Website. In addition, Approved Freight may make changes in information about price and availability without notice. If you order something that becomes unavailable before it can be provided to you, your only remedy is to receive a refund of your purchase price.

While it is Approved Freight’ practice to confirm orders by email, the receipt of an email order confirmation does not constitute Approved Freight’ acceptance of an order or Approved Freight’ confirmation of an offer to sell a product or service. Approved Freight reserves the right, without prior notice, to limit the order quantity on any product or service and/or to refuse service to any customer. Approved Freight also may require verification of information prior to the acceptance and/or shipment of any order. You may be presented with additional terms related to a specific purchase before you confirm the transaction (such as shipping terms for tangible goods). Those additional terms will also govern that transaction. It is your responsibility to ascertain and obey all applicable local, state, federal, and international laws (including minimum age requirements) in regard to the product or service purchased from this Website.

Approved Freight makes commercially reasonable efforts to make product/service descriptions for items listed for sale on this Website as accurate as possible. Despite our efforts, the information on this Website may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date. We make no representation as to the completeness, accuracy, or correctness of any information on this Website. Certain weights, measures, and similar descriptions are approximate and are provided for convenience purposes only. If a product/service offered by Approved Freight is not materially as described, your sole remedy is to follow all applicable local, state, federal, and international laws to reach a resolution.

This Website may allow you to make payments using a number of different payment sources, like credit cards and debit cards. When you provide a payment source to Approved Freight, you confirm that you are permitted to use that payment source. You also authorize Approved Freight (and Approved Freight’ designated payment processor) to collect and store the payment information, along with other related transaction information. When you make a payment, you authorize Approved Freight (and Approved Freight’ designated payment processor) to charge the full amount to the payment source you designate for the transaction. If you pay by credit or with debit card, Approved Freight may obtain a pre-approval from the issuer of the card for an amount up to the amount of the purchase. Approved Freight will bill your card at the time of purchase or shortly thereafter. If you cancel a transaction before completion, that pre-approval may result in your funds not otherwise being immediately available. If you pay by debit card and your payment results in an overdraft or other fee from your bank, you alone are responsible for that fee.

If you believe that an unauthorized or otherwise problematic transaction has taken place under your account, you agree to notify Approved Freight immediately so that Approved Freight may take action to attempt to prevent financial loss. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive all claims against Approved Freight related to payments unless you submit the claim to Approved Freight within 30 days after the charge. You are responsible for and agree to reimburse Approved Freight for all reversals, chargebacks, claims, fees, fines, penalties, and other liability incurred by Approved Freight (including costs and related expenses) caused by or arising out of payments that you authorized or accepted.

Your only remedy for a technical failure or interruption of service is to request that your transaction be completed at a later time.

CONTESTS, SWEEPSTAKES, AND PROMOTIONS

From time to time, Approved Freight, or its service providers, suppliers, or other third parties may conduct promotions on or through this Website, including contests and sweepstakes (“Promotions”).
