We are your one-stop-shop custom merchandise platform, providing a wide range of products from apparel, drinkware, bags and other promotional merchandise for any business, school, church, event and club. Your use of Empower Technologies Inc products and services available at www.PIXI.store is subject to the terms of this legal agreement between you and Empower Technologies Inc, as amended from time to time.
INTRODUCTION
This “Terms of Service” (referred to below as this “TOS”) has been written to describe the conditions under which we make the PIXI service and products (the “Site”) available to you through our platform, websites and mobile applications. In this TOS, “we” and “us” means Empower Technologies Inc, and “you” means the person using the Site. “Both of us” or “Either of us” means both or either of you or us. This TOS discusses important limitations about the way you may use and rely upon materials you find on the Site. Read this TOS carefully. By using the Site, you will be deemed to have accepted this TOS. If you do not accept this TOS or if your right to use the Site has been terminated (see below), you may not use the Site.
LIMITS ON USE
You are only authorized under this TOS to use the Site individually. By requesting to use, and/or using the Site, you represent and warrant that you have the right, authority and capacity to enter into this TOS and you commit to abide by this TOS.
ELIGIBILITY TO USE THE SITE
We sell products for both adults and children, but we sell them only to adults, who can purchase with a credit card or other permitted payment method. If you are under 18, you may use the Site only with involvement of a parent or guardian. Accordingly, any individual under the age of 18 years (“Minor”) must have a parent or guardian accept this TOS in order for such Minor to use the Site. A parent or guardian who accepts this TOS on behalf of a Minor will be primarily liable for ensuring complete and proper compliance with this TOS, including any payment obligation. A parent or guardian who accepts this TOS on behalf of a Minor will continue to be primarily liable for the obligations mentioned in this TOS even when the Minor has attained the age of 18, unless the parent or guardian obtains the Company’s express written consent to the contrary. You may submit or arrange for the submission of orders on behalf of a group of individuals (such as a team or league) (a “Group”). In such case, if you identify yourself as an organizer of that Group, then you promise that you are authorized on behalf of the Group to enter into this Agreement and you have authorization to obtain and provide to us information about the Group, solicit the Order Information (see below) from other members of the Group on behalf of the Group, and that the agreements in this TOS are made by you on behalf of the Group. Due to restriction on the storage and use of personal information, no person under the age of 13 may use the Site. Any information relating to a person under the age of 13 must be submitted by parent or guardian of such individual. You hereby authorize us to verify your representations and warranties herein, and you acknowledge that we reserve the right, but not the obligation, to verify such representations and warranties, and to take action we deem appropriate in our sole discretion, including but not limited to terminating your right to use the Site, should we determine, in our sole opinion, that you have violated any representation or warranty or any other provision of this TOS.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS
We attempt to be as accurate as possible. However, we do not warrant that product description or other content of the Site are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. If a product offered by us is not as described, your sole remedy is to return it to us under our refund policy. See our return policy at https://www.pixi.store/return-policy.
ORDER INFORMATION
As part of the ordering process, you may submit to us personal information, pictures, logos and other materials for use in customizing your order (your “Order Information”). In providing Order Information to us with the Site you grant us the nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, and fully sublicensable right to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, perform, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, and display such Order Information for the purpose of providing you goods and services through the Site, and may use and disclose it for marketing purposes and in aggregate form, for benchmarking, improvements to products and services, or marketing. You represent and warrant to us that you own or otherwise control all of the rights to the Order Information that you make and have the right to submit it for this purpose; that our use of the Order Information will not violate any third party rights.
The rights you are granting us in this TOS and the representations and warranties regarding the Order Information include, without limitation, slogans, logos, photographs and other artwork, and our ability to modify and adapt such materials as necessary in order to make customized products for you, and includes providing or arranging for access to team rosters, which may include individual names, numbers, and size information.
You also promise that the materials you submit, our use of that materials, and your use of the items you will provide will not violate our standards of conduct posted at www.PIXI.store/conduct as amended from time to time. You agree to indemnify us for all claims resulting from any violation of your agreements, representations and warranties contained in this TOS.
PRICES AND ORDERS
The total price required for a purchase on the Site depends on a number of factors that may change between the time you start adding items to your cart and the time you submit your order. Items on the Site have a price associated with each item. In addition, your total purchase price may be affected by factors such as particular customization requests and your shipping address. You must review your complete order, including the final total purchase price and the final individual item prices, before you submit your order.
Your submission of an order is an offer by you to purchase the items selected at the prices indicated immediately prior to your submission of the request. This offer remains open until we email you to confirm that it has been accepted or that it has not been accepted (e.g., because an item has become unavailable). We cannot confirm the price of an item until after your order is placed.
Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items may be mispriced. We reserve the right to cancel any orders, with no further obligations to you, even after your receipt of the order confirmation mentioned above or a shipping notice. We may, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions or cancel your order and notify you of the cancellation.
PROMOTIONS
Empower Technologies Inc will occasionally offer promotional discounts, special offers and give-away. The company reserves the right to end promotions at any time. This section may list the specific terms of certain promotions and these promotions may change or end at the company’s sole discretion.
TAXES
Items sold on the Site may be subject to sales tax. If you are a reseller, you will be asked to provide your state Reseller Tax number, to avoid tax being applied to your orders.
PAYMENT
We accept standard credit cards for payment for orders. Because of the custom nature of your order, we charge your credit card at the point the order has been accepted.
TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS
Risk of loss and title of items purchased on the Site passes to you upon delivery of the items to the common carrier.
RETURNS AND REFUNDS
Returns and refunds are available as described in our Returns policy. See https://www.pixi.store/return-policy.

CHANGES TO THE SITE; TERMINATION
Certain provisions of this TOS may be superseded by expressly designated legal notices or terms located on particular parts of the Site.

AMENDMENT AND UPDATING OF THIS TOS; ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES
We may desire to make changes to this TOS from time to time to update it, for example to add references to different products and services. We may specify amended or updated terms that apply to the use of Site after the effective date of such amendment or update, and we will make a new copy of this TOS available to you and may require you to accept it as a condition to the continued provision of the Site to you. In addition, the continued use of the Site after receipt of such amended terms shall constitute your agreement to such amended terms.

Empower Technologies Inc will communicate with Store Administrators when a logo edit has been made and the store administrator will be deemed to have consented to the proposed changes and to have authorized Empower Technologies Inc to proceed with fulfilling the order(s) using the modified artwork. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Empower Technologies Inc may refuse to proceed with any order(s) using modified artwork and shall not be liable in any manner as a result in any delivery delays. Empower Technologies Inc reserves the right to deny the use of any artwork that it believes, in its sole discretion, may violate the rights of third parties and to use any artwork uploaded to our site for marketing purposes.
