IMVU Information
Terms and Conditions of Sale

THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE GOVERN YOUR PURCHASES OF PRODUCTS FROM IMVU, INC. ("COMPANY"). EVERY TIME YOU MAKE A PURCHASE ON OUR SITE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND ACCEPT THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE. Every order you place through Company or its vendors will be deemed your offer to purchase our products. We may accept your offer either through an e-mail confirmation or through delivery of the items you requested. Our acceptance of each offer as specified is expressly subject to and conditioned on your acceptance of these (and only these) Terms and Conditions of Sale.

All prices we show on this site are subject to change without notice. Prices stated at beginning of delivery apply. Applicable taxes or shipping and handling charges, which do not apply to IMVU Credits or virtual products (if any), are not included in the product prices, but all such charges will be added to your invoice and will be visible at Check Out before you complete your purchase. We accept payment only by the following: credit card, PayPal, SMS, money order and PayByCash.

We will collect sales tax in the states we are required by law to do so. Thus we require you to tell us your state of residency when ordering. Applicable sales tax will be added to your purchase.

All IMVU credits, passes, products, and all virtual products are non-refundable, except, in our sole and absolute discretion. Virtual products purchased will be available for use as soon as reasonably practicable.

Shopping should be fun, and we want you to feel safe and secure when you shop with us at IMVU. As you're shopping with us online, you may give us your credit card information, and we take the responsibility of caring for that information very seriously. While no security system is absolute, we employ industry standard security systems. Our servers protect your information using encryption and firewall technology throughout the ordering process. Most browsers will show a lock icon in the bottom status bar on secure pages. Look for this icon on any web page that asks for your personal information.

Thanks to the Fair Credit Billing Act, your credit card company or your bank cannot hold you responsible for an amount higher than $50 of unauthorized or otherwise fraudulent charges made to your credit card. Liability on a debit card can be greater, but check with your bank because most of them grant the same $50 limit to debit cards.

We reserve the right to furnish materially equivalent substitutions for materials which cannot be obtained in sufficient quantities, or to cancel the excess portion of the order. We shall not be in default if delivery is delayed or rendered impossible by forces of nature, war, civil commotion, governmental action, terrorism, fire, storm, flood, explosion, strikes, walkouts, other industrial disturbances, utility, services or transportation interruptions, or any other cause beyond our reasonable control. We may revise or modify products, product information or pricing without notice. We are not responsible for typos, fax or printing errors.

These Terms and Conditions of Sale will be governed and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State of California, United States of America, for contracts to be executed and fully performed therein and notwithstanding any principles of conflicts of law. The parties specifically disclaim application of the Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. You specifically consent to personal jurisdiction in the State of California in connection with any dispute between you and Company arising out of these Terms and Conditions of Sale or pertaining to the subject matter hereof. The parties to these Terms and Conditions of Sale each agree that the exclusive venue for any dispute between the parties arising out of these Terms and Conditions of Sale or pertaining to the subject matter thereof will be in the state and federal courts in California. You irrevocably waive all rights to bring or participate in any class action suits or claims regarding the matters related hereto. If any part of these Terms and Conditions of Sale is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. These Terms and Conditions of Sale constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to this subject matter. To the extent a purchase order, confirmation letter, or other communication is inconsistent with these Terms and Conditions of Sale, these Terms and Conditions of Sale will govern, unless expressly agreed in writing otherwise by an executive officer of Company (i.e., regular employees cannot bind the Company).

You may not separate any individual component of the Software for use other than in connection with the Service, may not incorporate any portion of it into your own programs or compile any portion of it in combination with your own programs, may not transfer it for use with another service, or use it, or any portion of it, over a network and may not sell, rent, lease, lend, loan, distribute or sub-license the Software or otherwise assign any rights to the Software in whole or in part.

In case of such termination, you must cease all use of the Software and Digital Content, and we may immediately revoke your access to the Service without notice to you and without refund of any fees. Our failure to insist upon or enforce your strict compliance with this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of any of our rights. We may amend any of this Agreement’s terms at our sole discretion by posting the revised terms on the Service’s website. Your continued use of the Service, the Software or the Digital Content after any such amendment’s effective date evidences your agreement to be bound by it.
