When you provide any information to Seiseidou for any reason, such as to register for the purchase of products, you agree to only provide true, accurate, current, and complete information.

You agree that your placement of an electronic order via the Seiseidou Site is sufficient to satisfy any applicable Statute of Frauds, and no further writing is required. If you have any concerns or objections regarding charges, you agree to raise them with us first and you agree not to cancel or reject any credit card charges unless you have made a reasonable attempt at resolving the matter directly with Seiseidou. All prices are displayed in United States Dollars unless expressly indicated otherwise.
- Order Processing. Seiseidou reserves the right to refuse or cancel any order prior to delivery. Orders may also be cancelled due to typographical errors, system failures, inaccuracies in product/subscription pricing information or availability, or problems identified by Seiseidou’s, or its payment processors’, credit or fraud departments. Seiseidou also may require additional verification or information before accepting an order. Seiseidou will contact you if any portion of your order is cancelled or if additional information is required to accept your order. If your order is cancelled after Seiseidou processed your payment but prior to delivery, Seiseidou will refund your payment. As applicable, all purchases are also subject to shipping and handling charges and sales and/or other taxes, which will be applied to your order total. Taxes will be calculated based on the billing address provided.
- Monthly Subscription Based Program. Seiseidou offers certain products on a monthly subscription basis so you can enjoy the benefits of such products on a continuous basis. Our subscription service automatically delivers your products right to your door on a recurring basis (i.e.., every 1 or 3 months). You can join the monthly subscription program by selecting this option on the product page and checking out.
BY SIGNING UP FOR THE MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION WITH A RECURRING SHIPMENT, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW AND YOUR ORDER WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY PROCESSED AND SHIPPED ON A RECURRING BASIS AS SELECTED BY YOU UNTIL YOU END YOUR SUBSCRIPTION OR CANCEL YOUR RECURRING ORDER. Your payment method will automatically be charged for each successive shipment at the then-current price until you provide prior notice that you wish to cancel your subscription, as described below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prices are subject to change at any time during the term of your subscription. Monthly charges will typically occur on or around the same day of the month as your initial purchase, although some charges may be delayed for business or legal reasons.
- Cancellations. You may cancel your monthly subscription based program at any time by cancelling online at: https://store.simfort.co/, or emailing us to support@simfort.co. Any cancellation of your subscription must be received by Seiseidou at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the next scheduled payment date in order to take effect for that period. If you cancel less than forty-eight (48) hours prior to the monthly renewal of your subscription, your subscription will continue as scheduled and your cancellation will take effect in the following month.
- No Refunds. Generally, all charges for product purchases are nonrefundable. If you received a product that is defective or damaged, you can request an exchange or replacement product. Please contact Customer Service by email at support@simfort.co with your order number and brief description of the issue with the product. If you are not satisfied with the product, please contact support@simfort.co.
- Credit Card Chargeback Policy. We protect the business and credit card companies, banks, and other institutions providing related services to us from fraudulent credit card chargebacks. A chargeback is fraudulent if the credit card holder disputes a legitimate charge for products the holder has purchased from a merchant. You hereby understand and agree that in the event you attempt to create a fraudulent chargeback, Seiseidou will work with the relevant credit card company, bank, or other institution and law enforcement authorities to investigate the matter.
- Reservation of Rights. Seiseidou reserves the right to suspend or terminate your interaction with the Seiseidou Site for any or no reason, in its sole and absolute discretion, including your access, use, or purchase of any products, goods, or services that Seiseidou provides.
- Other Terms and Conditions. Seiseidou reserves the right to not process or cancel your order in certain circumstances. This may occur, for example, when the product you wish to purchase is out of stock or has been mispriced, we suspect the request is fraudulent, or in other circumstances Seiseidou deems appropriate in its sole discretion. Seiseidou also reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to take steps to verify your identity to process your order. Seiseidou will either not charge you or refund the charges for orders that we do not process or cancel. Replacement of products and credits to your account for shipped merchandise claimed as not received are subject to our investigation, which may include postal-service notification. We will adjust your account at our discretion. In the event that a refund is issued, it can only be issued to the original form of payment.
- Title; Risk of Loss. All items purchased from the Seiseidou Site are delivered to shipment carriers. The risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier. Company may reject orders where the stated delivery address is outside the United States; we do not ship outside of the United States.
- Product and Service Availability. We are always striving to improve the Seiseidou Site, including our products and electronic services. Therefore, we may revise or discontinue products or services at any time without notice or any liability. Prices and promotions are subject to change without notice. We do not warrant that information available via our Seiseidou Site is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. The Seiseidou Site may contain information regarding the availability of merchandise or services. This information can be used to estimate the likelihood that an item will be shipped immediately after you place your order. Unfortunately, Seiseidou cannot guarantee that an item listed as “in stock” will actually ship right away, as inventory can change significantly from day-to-day. In rare cases, a product offering may be in stock when a customer places the order, and sold out by the time Seiseidou attempts to process the order.
- Mobile Networks; Texting. When you contact us via your mobile phone, where available, or you access any Seiseidou Site through a mobile network, your network or roaming provider's messaging, data, and other rates and fees may apply.

- Applicable Law. You agree that United States federal law including the Federal Arbitration Act, and (to the extent not inconsistent with or pre-empted by federal law) the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to conflict of laws principles, will govern all Disputes. Such body of law will apply regardless of your residence or the location of where you use the Seiseidou Site.
- Binding Arbitration. If informal resolution is not achieved within sixty (60) days, and except as specifically stated herein, any Dispute shall be resolved exclusively by final, binding arbitration; except that you may bring a qualifying claim over a Dispute in a small claims court. By virtue of this Arbitration Agreement (defined below), you and Seiseidou are each giving up the right to go to court and have a Dispute heard by a judge or jury (except as otherwise set forth in this subsection (A) or subsection (D). The provisions of this section shall constitute your and Seiseidou’s written agreement to arbitrate Disputes under the Federal Arbitration Act (“Arbitration Agreement”). Any modification to this Arbitration Agreement shall be in writing and signed by you and Seiseidou. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and conducted before a single arbitrator pursuant to its rules, including, without limitation, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, available at http://www.adr.org or by calling (800) 778.7879. The arbitrator will apply and be bound by these Terms of Use, apply applicable law and the facts, and issue a reasoned award.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. Seiseidou will reimburse those fees for Disputes totaling less than $5,000 unless the arbitrator determines the Dispute is frivolous. Likewise, Seiseidou will not seek attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the Dispute is frivolous. The arbitration will be conducted based upon written submissions unless you request and/or the arbitrator determines that a telephone or in-person hearing is necessary.
