You hereby authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge your Payment Method (as defined below) for the Purchase Price when you purchase Products. We will charge your Payment Method the amount of the Purchase Price immediately upon your purchase order.

Please see our FAQ Section for the current amount we charge for non-return fees (including for packaging, and products).
Other Terms Related to Products and Services
Use of the Products
You agree to treat the Products with great care. You are responsible for any loss, destruction, or damage to the Products for any reason (other than normal usage), including due to theft, loss, mysterious disappearance, fire, major stains, or any other cause. Normal wear and tear means minor stains, bending and roughing of the edges. If you return a Product that is damaged beyond normal usage, then you hereby authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge your Payment Method for the price for replacing the Product. Please see our FAQ section for the current amount we charge for replacing products.
Product and Service Descriptions
We may, in our sole discretion, provide listings, descriptions, or images of Products that are available on the Services, as well as references and links to Products, but we do not warrant that the Product listings, descriptions, or images are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free, or that any Products will be available. Such information and the availability of any Product are subject to change at any time without notice. Certain weights, measures, and similar descriptions are approximate and are for convenience only. We make reasonable efforts to accurately display the attributes of Products, including the applicable colors, however the actual colors you see will depend on your computer system, and we cannot guarantee that your computer (including a smart phone or similar device) will accurately display such colors. The prices displayed for Products and Services are quoted in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.
Delivery
You must provide us with accurate shipping information, so that we can timely deliver Products to you. You are responsible for providing us with accurate shipping information for deliveries and for keeping the shipping information for your Account up-to-date. If you provide us with a shipping address that is invalid or where you cannot securely accept Products upon delivery, or if you do not keep your shipping information up-to-date, you are solely responsible for any resulting loss, theft, or damage to the Products. Following delivery to the designated address, as between you and us, you will be solely responsible for the condition of each Product until you return such Product (including while they are in transit). We reserve the right to reject, cancel, or prohibit any rentals or sales of Products for any reason. Please see our FAQ Section for more information regarding deliveries.
Returns, Extensions, Shipping, and Lost Items
You agree to return each rented Product to Completing the Puzzle. We are not responsible for any personal or other items left in the Products or which are returned to Completing the Puzzle in the Return Packaging. If you believe you have accidentally or otherwise sent any such items to us, please contact customer service as soon as possible at support@completingthepuzzle.com. We may, but are not required to, assist you in attempting to locate such items at your request, and we assume no responsibility or liability if we attempt to locate such items.
If you use the Return Packaging that we provide, you must use the shipping carrier specified on the pre-paid shipping label included with the Return Packaging. Completing the Puzzle will not be responsible for loss, theft, or damage to Products that are shipped back to us using any carrier other than the carrier that is specified on our Return Packaging, or for any fees or expenses that you incur due to delays in Completing the Puzzle receiving the Product. Completing the Puzzle does not ship Products outside of the United States, and you may not return Products to us from outside of the United States without our prior written permission.
In the event that you lose or damage the Return Packaging that we provide, you will be responsible for returning the Product to us in your own packaging, at your own expense. Furthermore, you acknowledge that using any packaging or shipping carriers other than our Return Packaging and the carrier specified thereon may result in delivery delays and additional delivery fees for which Completing the Puzzle will not be liable. You will be solely liable for all such delays and additional delivery fees.
For more information regarding Product returns, please refer to our FAQ Section for the most up-to-date information.
Billing and Payments
How Payments Work
When you place a rental order for a Product, you hereby authorize Completing the Puzzle to charge your payment card or other payment instrument (“Payment Method”) for the Membership. You must ensure that at all times your Payment Method is valid and up-to-date. You are responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to Completing the Puzzle and notifying Completing the Puzzle of any changes to such information. Completing the Puzzle will charge your Payment Method the amount of the Membership Fee immediately upon your rental order. Membership Fees exclude all federal, state, and local taxes, goods and service tax, fees, customs, duties, levies, and other governmental assessments, all of which shall be paid by you directly or, if paid by Completing the Puzzle, shall be paid by you to Completing the Puzzle in connection with your membership.
We use a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill you for any Paid Services through a payment account linked to your account (your “Billing Account”). By choosing to use Paid Services, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such Paid Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms, and you authorize us, through the Payment Processor, to charge your chosen Payment Method. You agree to make payment using that selected Payment Method, but if the Payment Processor is not able to charge your preferred Payment Method, you authorize us to use any Payment Method stored on record for your Billing Account. We reserve the right to suspend or cancel an order or terminate your access to the Services in the event that we are unable to successfully charge the provided Payment Method. We are not responsible for errors by the Payment Processor, and we reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that we or the Payment Processor make(s) even if we have or our Payment Processor has already requested or received payment. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account upon demand.
How Recurring Billing and Auto-renewal Work
Some of the Paid Services are offered as a subscription that may consist of an initial period, for which there will be an initial charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you (“Membership Services”). If you choose a Membership Service, your Payment Method will be charged the then-current applicable rate (including all applicable taxes and fees) on the date that you sign up for such Membership Service. This date is your “Billing Date.” The applicable fee will automatically renew, meaning your Payment Method will be automatically charged the then-current applicable rate for the Membership Service during each subsequent month until you Pause or Cancel (each as defined below) the Membership Service or terminate your Account. Recurring charges will occur on a going-forward basis each month on or about the same date as your Billing Date (however, if your Billing Date does not exist in a given month, you will be billed on or around the last day of that month). The period between your Billing Dates is referred to as a “Billing Period.” As of your first Billing Date, the Membership Services are available to you, subject to these Terms. Your Account will remain active and you will remain eligible to participate in the Membership Services for subsequent Billing Periods after we successfully receive your payment for each applicable Billing Date. If you do not want to continue to be charged on a recurring monthly basis, you must Cancel or Pause the applicable Membership Service or terminate your Account before the end of the then-current Billing Period.
By choosing a recurring Membership Service, you acknowledge that such Paid Services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR CANCELLED OR PAUSED THE SERVICES OR YOUR ACCOUNT. Such notice will not affect charges that have already been submitted or are in process.
To change your Payment Method, go to your account portal. To delete a Payment Method or terminate your payment authorization, contact us at support@completingthepuzzle.com or go to your account portal. For information on how to Pause or Cancel your account, see below.
Information Provided by Customers
You must provide current, complete, and accurate information for your Billing Account. You must promptly update all information to keep your Billing Account current, complete, and accurate (such as a change in billing address, credit card number, or credit card expiration date). If your Payment Method is canceled for any reason (e.g., for loss or theft) or if you become aware of a potential breach of security, such as the unauthorized disclosure or use of your User ID or password, you must promptly notify us and update your Payment Method. Changes to such information can be made in your account portal. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE REQUIRED INFORMATION OR KEEP SUCH INFORMATION UP-TO-DATE, YOU AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU USING ANY PAYMENT METHOD YOU HAVE ON RECORD, FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT, UNLESS YOU HAVE CANCELLED OR PAUSED YOUR PAID SERVICES OR TERMINATED YOUR ACCOUNT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS.
Payment Authorization
If the amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state taxes), we shall provide notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with your payment provider will govern your use of your Payment Method. You agree that we may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each Billing Period.
Your non-termination or continued use of a Membership Service reaffirms that we (and/or our Payment Processor) are authorized to charge your Payment Method for that Membership Service. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Membership Service.
Pausing and Cancelling Services
How to Pause a Membership Service
We may, but are not obligated to, permit you to put your Membership Service on hold for one or more Billing Periods (a “Pause”). If you wish to Pause your Membership Service, your current puzzle must be marked return in transit by USPS by the date you wish to pause, in accordance with these Terms. If you do not return each Product in your possession by the pause date, you will be charged your membership fee. Once Paused, you can reactivate your Membership Service during a Pause at any time prior to the set date of reactivation by emailing support@completingthepuzzle.com, and that the date on which you manually reactivate your Membership Service will become your new Billing Date. Please see our FAQ Section for more information regarding Pauses (including how to initiate a Pause or reactivate your Membership Service).
How to Cancel your Account or a Membership Service
You may terminate your Account or your Membership Service (“Cancel”) at any time. If you Cancel your Membership Service, you may use the Membership Service until the end of your then-current Billing Period and your membership will not be renewed after the expiration of your then-current Billing Period. You must return all Products in your possession in accordance with these Terms no later than thirty (30) days of the expiration of your then-current Billing Period to avoid incurring product replacement charges. Please see our FAQ Section for more information regarding how to Cancel your Account or your Membership Service.
Please note that you will not receive any refunds for amounts already paid for the Membership Services, and you will still be responsible for payment of any fees or charges (including, without limitation, all Rental Fees) incurred by you prior to termination of your Membership Service. Membership Services cannot be terminated before the end of the Billing Period for which you have already paid, and except as expressly provided in these terms, Completing the Puzzle will not refund any fees that you have already paid.
Completing the Puzzle is also free to suspend, limit, or terminate your access to or use of the Services or your Account, for any reason in our discretion, including your breach of these Terms.
The following provisions survive expiration or termination of these Terms (or your Account): “Changes,” “Late Fees,” “Completing the Puzzle Packaging,” “Returns, Extensions, Shipping and Lost Items,” “Your Content,” “Use Restrictions,” “Use of your Content,” “Limitation of Liability,” “Disclaimer of Warranties,” “Indemnity,” “Assignment,” “Choice of Law,” “Arbitration Agreement,” “Taxes,” “Waiver; Severability,” and “Entire Agreement.”
Free trials and Promotions
Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a Paid Service must be used within the specified time of the trial. At the end of your free trial or promotion, you will be signed up to use the applicable Paid Service and charged in accordance with these Terms, unless you Cancel the Paid Service in accordance with these Terms. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a free trial or other promotion are deemed part of these Terms.
Any sweepstakes, contests, raffles, surveys, games, or similar promotions (collectively, “Promotions”) made available through the Services may be governed by rules that are separate from this Agreement. If you participate in any Promotions, please review the applicable rules, as well as our Privacy Policy. If the rules for a Promotion conflict with this Agreement, the Promotion rules will govern.
Money Back Guarantee
For qualified subscription purchases that offer a "Money Back Guarantee," you are required to add 10 or more puzzles to your wishlist, fill out your skill level, and puzzle preferences. If you do not receive a puzzle that matches your preferences and/or wishlist choices, you are eligible for a full refund. You must notify support, support@completingthepuzzle.com, before returning your first puzzle. This guarantee is only applicable to your first puzzle and not applicable for subscriptions purchased with gift cards.

Choice of Law
These Terms are governed by and will be construed under the laws of the United States (including federal arbitration law) and the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.
Arbitration Agreement
Please read the following Arbitration Agreement carefully (subsections (a) though (f) below will be referenced herein as the “Arbitration Agreement”) because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Completing the Puzzle and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from Completing the Puzzle. Both you and Completing the Puzzle acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms, Completing the Puzzle's officers, directors, employees, and independent contractors (“Personnel”) are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third-party beneficiary hereof.
(a) Arbitration Rules; Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. If such negotiations do not resolve the dispute, such dispute shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in accordance with this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as amended by this Arbitration Agreement (the “Rules”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes. The Consumer Arbitration Rules are available online at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/CommercialRules_Web_FINAL_2.pdf. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision will follow the terms of this Agreement and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of this Agreement, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies and, if the law allows, they can seek relief against us for you.
(b) Class Action Waiver. You agree that any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted and you are agreeing to give up the ability to participate in a class action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement or any other provision of these Terms or in the American Arbitration Association’s Consumer Arbitration Rules, disputes regarding the enforceability, revocability, or validity of the foregoing class action waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. In any case in which (i) the dispute is filed as a class, collective, or representative action, and (ii) there is a final judicial determination that all or part of such class action waiver is unenforceable, then the class, collective, and/or representative action, to that extent, must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, but the portion of such class action waiver that is enforceable shall be enforced in arbitration.
(c) Small Claims Court; Infringement. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to resolve disputes using arbitration, both you and Completing the Puzzle may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Travis County, Texas or any United States county where you live or work. Furthermore, both you and Completing the Puzzle will have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any 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.
(d) Waiver of Jury Trial. You and Completing the Puzzle are each waiving the right to trial by a jury and instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Except for disputes that qualify for small claims court, all disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or any aspect of the relationship between you and Completing the Puzzle, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, will be resolved pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement. Except as provided above regarding the class action waiver, such disputes include, without limitation, disputes arising out of or relating to interpretation or application of this arbitration provision, including the enforceability, revocability or validity of the arbitration provision or any portion of the arbitration provision. All such matters shall be decided by an arbitrator and not by a court or judge. However, as set forth above, the preceding arbitration requirement shall not apply to disputes to the extent relating to the interpretation or application of the class action waiver above, including its enforceability, revocability, or validity.
(e) Exclusive Venue. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits either you or Completing the Puzzle to litigate any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms in court, then the foregoing Arbitration Agreement will not apply to either party, and both you and Completing the Puzzle agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Travis County, Texas.
(f) Severability. If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Arbitration Agreement section will be null and void. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Completing the Puzzle.

Waiver; Severability
The failure of either you or us to exercise, in any way, any right herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated, to the minimum extent necessary, so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
Delays
There may be delays, omissions, or inaccuracies in the Services, including the Content. The Services may become unavailable due to maintenance or malfunction of computer equipment or other reasons.

Entire Agreement

You hereby acknowledge and agree that you are not an employee, agent, partner, or joint venture of Completing the Puzzle, and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind Completing the Puzzle in any respect whatsoever.
