Last Updated: June, 2017

Welcome to Spinn Inc. Spinn Inc. and its affiliates ('we', 'us', 'Spinn Coffee' or “Spinn”) provide website features and other products and services ('Spinn Services') to you subject to the following conditions ('Terms of Use').

By using Spinn Services, you agree to these conditions. Please read them carefully.

By registering to sell on the Spinn Marketplace and any related websites and applications owned or operated by or on behalf of Spinn (collectively, the «Websites»), you as an individual, or the company on behalf of which you are registering, (referred to herein as «Seller») agree to be bound by these Spinn Marketplace Terms and Conditions (collectively, with any Attachments or Exhibits, the «Agreement»), which are by and between Spinn Holdings Management Corporation (together with its affiliates, «Spinn») and Seller (each, a «Party» and collectively, the «Parties»). This Agreement is effective as of latest of (i) the date Seller registers for the Websites via the Portal or otherwise accepts the Agreement and (ii) the Agreement is posted to the Seller Portal (the «Effective Date»). Capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement will have the meanings given to them in Appendix A.

SPINN’S RESPONSIBILITIES

  1. Websites Hosting and Maintenance. Spinn will provide Seller with access to the Websites as a platform for Seller to post Merchandise Listings and facilitate the sale of Seller's Merchandise to Users. Spinn will be responsible for all operating functions of the Websites. Spinn may, in its sole discretion, (i) ask Users to rate and/or provide comments regarding Merchandise and/or Seller's performance, using any metrics determined by Spinn in its sole discretion, and (ii) post any resulting ratings and/or comments on the Websites for public display.
  2. User Orders and Payment. Spinn will process User Orders (as defined in Section II.C.1) and collect all amounts due from Users for Merchandise ordered from Seller through the Websites. Within fifteen (15) days thereafter, Spinn will remit such amounts, less any amounts owed to Spinn by Seller, by electronic funds transfer to the bank account identified by Seller in the Portal. Seller hereby appoints Spinn as an agent of Seller for the sole and express purpose of receiving payments from Users for Seller's Merchandise sold on the Websites. Seller acknowledges that, as between Seller and a User who purchases Merchandise from Seller, Spinn' receipt of funds from the User is deemed the receipt of funds by Seller.

SELLERS'S RESPONSIBILITIES

  1. Enrollment; Account Activation. Seller will provide the information requested on the Portal during Account activation, and agrees to update such information promptly. Seller will not use or incorporate any Spinn Mark, in whole or in part, in Seller's account name or any other User-facing identification. Seller agrees to secure the password used to access its Account and not to disclose it to any third party (other than any authorized third-party service providers to Seller). Seller acknowledges and agrees to be strictly liable for all uses or actions occurring through the Seller's Account.
  2. Merchandise Listings. Seller will create Merchandise Listings via the Portal for all Merchandise it intends to sell on the Websites. All Merchandise Listings will comply with the specifications and policies posted in the Portal, and such Merchandise Listings will not use or incorporate any Spinn Marks. Seller is responsible for promptly updating its Merchandise Listing(s) to ensure the Merchandise Listing and inventories are at all times accurate. Seller will not list any Merchandise it does not currently have in stock. Seller acknowledges that failure to abide by the terms of this Agreement may subject Seller to penalties and legal liability, and that Spinn may reject, remove or censor any Merchandise Listing for any reason, in Spinn' sole discretion.
    1. Merchandise Pricing. Seller is responsible to establish prices for its Merchandise. Seller will enter pricing via the Portal, unless another method is approved in writing by Spinn.
      1. Most Favorable, Best Pricing or Equivalent Pricing. Seller will maintain parity between the Merchandise and identical merchandise offered through Seller's other sales distribution channels, including Seller's own website(s) or any third-party website(s). For avoidance of doubt, the term 'parity' as used herein means that sales prices, product quality (including quality assurances), and shipping and handling charges associated with a Merchandise Listing (including any 'low price' guarantees, rebates, free or discounted shipping and handling, or other benefits) are equivalent to those associated with identical Merchandise offered by Seller on the Websites.
      2. Seller Pricing Errors. If Seller uploads or otherwise provides incorrect pricing information to a Merchandise Listing (a «Seller Pricing Error»), Spinn may, at Seller's expense, take any commercially reasonable action necessary to avoid and/or repair harm to Spinn due to the Seller Pricing Error. Such action may include requiring Seller to honor all Merchandise purchases occurring due to Seller Pricing Errors and compensating Users for any inconvenience caused by such errors. Seller will also reimburse Spinn for all costs Spinn incurs directly as a result of Seller Pricing Errors.
    2. Prohibited Merchandise. Unless otherwise expressly permitted in writing by Spinn, Seller will not promote, offer for sale, or provide Spinn with Merchandise Listings that (a) contain any Prohibited Merchandise, (b) promote or engage in any deceptive trade practice (including spoofing, slamming, cramming, phishing, attempting to scam or defraud a User into surrendering private and/or personal information); or (c) promote or engage in any other illegal activity.
    3. Permits and Licenses; Taxes. Seller will, at its own expense, obtain all permits and licenses required to operate its business in accordance with Applicable Law, and will pay and discharge all applicable taxes and assessments which may be due for selling or offering of its Merchandise for sale on or through the Websites. It is Seller's responsibility to determine the states in which it has an obligation to collect and remit state and local sales and use taxes («Taxes»).
  3. Shipping. Seller is responsible for all aspects of shipping, including providing adequate packaging, tagging, labeling and packing of the Merchandise in compliance with the Seller Specifications and Applicable Law.
    1. Process. When Seller receives notice of an order from a User (a «User Order») at the e-mail address specified by Seller in the Portal, Seller will process and fulfill the User Order in compliance with the Seller Shipping and Delivery Policy, and will make the Merchandise requested in a User Order («Requested Merchandise») available for pick up by a common carrier to deliver to the applicable User. Seller will not substitute any item(s) for the Requested Merchandise. Title to and risk of loss of and/or damage to the Requested Merchandise will remain with Seller until delivery to the User. Spinn will not have title to, or deemed the legal owner of, any Merchandise at any time under the terms of this Agreement. Seller may not include any marketing, promotional materials, or any other solicitations with the Requested Merchandise shipped to Users.
    2. Overdue Orders. Spinn may cancel any User Order that fails for any reason to ship within the applicable shipping period indicated in the Seller Specifications, and Spinn will have no duty to compensate Seller for any such cancelled orders. It is Seller's responsibility to monitor all orders and ensure all shipments are made within the timeframes indicated in the Seller Specifications.
    3. Delivery Errors, Non-conformities. Seller is responsible for any non-delivery, delivery error, mistake, theft or act in connection with the fulfillment and delivery of its Merchandise, except to the extent caused by Spinn' failure to properly process a User's address verification in the course of the purchase of the Merchandise.
  1. User Service Issues. Seller will resolve all User service issues arising from, or in connection with Seller's promotion, sale, order fulfillment and/or delivery of Merchandise. Spinn will direct Users who contact it with service issues related to Merchandise sold pursuant to this Agreement to contact Seller via the contact information Seller has provided in the Portal. If Seller fails to respond to User service issues, or requests from Spinn related to same, Spinn may take any actions necessary to ensure compliance, up to and including suspending Seller's access to their Account. In the event that Spinn believes in its sole discretion that a transaction represents fraudulent activity, Spinn may, but is not obligated to, prohibit the transaction. Spinn will not be liable to Seller for any such action results in or prevents a User from completing an order or causes a User to cancel an order.
  2. Chargebacks. If Spinn notifies Seller of a User chargeback or chargebacks received due to non-delivery, or other dispute related to Seller's transactions, Seller must present Spinn with all information requested in the chargeback notification within five (5) business days of receiving notice. If Seller fails to comply with Spinn' request, Seller will reimburse Spinn for the User chargeback(s) in accordance with the settlement and payment terms herein. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this paragraph, Seller will not be responsible for chargebacks due to (a) theft and/or unauthorized use of a third party's credit card information for which Spinn is responsible (except to the extent such theft and/or unauthorized use is attributable to Seller), and (b) non-delivery due to Spinn' failure to send the order information to Seller.
  3. Seller Marketing; Restrictions; Prohibition on use of User Information. Seller (or any of its affiliates or related parties) may not directly or indirectly disclose or use any User information or other transaction information, except as necessary to fulfill its fulfillment and customer service obligations under this Agreement. Seller may not use any User information for any of its own marketing or promotional activities. To the extent Seller obtains User information outside of its relationship with Spinn or the Websites, the terms of this section will not prevent Sellers from using such User information, provided that Seller may not explicitly target Users on the basis of their purchases or presence on the Websites.
  4. Refunds; Defective Merchandise. Seller will be responsible for reimbursement of defective merchandise unless Seller is able to provide evidence that it was not responsible for such defects.
  5. Recalled Merchandise; Defective Merchandise. Seller will immediately notify Spinn of any recalls affecting the Merchandise it has listed on Spinn Marketplace. Notwithstanding the foregoing Seller is responsible for all defective or recalled Merchandise, including any costs associated with recalls of its Merchandise, all liability related to its Merchandise (regardless of whether such Merchandise is defective), and will bear all costs associated in notifying Users and handling such recalls of its Merchandise.

FEES AND COMMISSIONS

  1. Fees. There is a $5 flat rate shipping fee that Spinn will pay the Seller per order fulfilled that is less than 1.5 pounds total through Spinn Marketplace. For any order larger than 1.5 pounds the Seller will receive an additional $1 per bag sold.

DISPUTES
