These findings are not typical for all products, and not everyone will experience them. Consult a physician or your alternative health care provider if you have a medical ailment or concern.

Before using any new product, including The Melo Brand personal diffusers, consult a physician. Some of the goods on this website may interact with the prescriptions you are now taking. These devices should not be used in place of the advice of your physician. Regarding any health-related concerns, you should visit your personal physician. Different individuals may react differently to the components in The Melo Brand's personal diffuser, and unpleasant reactions are possible. These goods are utilized at your own risk.

AN ARBITRATION IS BINDING AND REVIEW BY A COURT IS EXTREMELY LIMITED. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS CONTRACT.

This section is designed to cover all disputes or claims arising out of your relationship with The Melo Brand, arising out of or relating to your purchase of any products from The Melo Brand, regardless of whether they are based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory. Nothing in this arbitration provision shall prevent The Melo Brand from filing claims in state or federal court over the unauthorized resale, export, modification, or tampering of any goods purchased by you. Where allowed by law, all claims will be handled by binding arbitration. Any claim or disagreement shall be arbitrated by a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA").

You and The Melo Brand agree that your purchase of a product from The Melo Brand constitutes an interstate commerce transaction, and that this arbitration provision shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. The arbitrator must decide all matters, including the extent of this arbitration clause, but is bound by the rules of this Agreement. Unless The Melo Brand and You agree otherwise in writing, such arbitration shall take place in Los Angeles, California. The Melo Brand and You agree, except where prohibited by law, that no arbitrator shall have the right to award punitive damages or other damages not measured by the prevailing party's actual damages.

Section 25 - Your Content

By using our website or purchasing our product, you accept that we may utilize your social media posts relating to our brand or product for commercial purposes, including but not limited to social media advertising, email marketing, SMS marketing, and so on.

Program conditions for SMS/MMS mobile messaging marketing

MELO Labs, Inc. provides a mobile messaging service (the "Program"), which you agree to use and participate in in accordance with these Mobile Messaging Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy (the "Agreement"). By opting in to or participating in any of our Programs, you accept and agree to these terms and conditions, including, without limitation, your agreement to address any disagreements with us through binding, individual arbitration, as described in "Dispute Resolution" below. This Agreement is restricted to the Program and is not intended to affect any other Terms and Conditions or Privacy Policy governing your connection with Us in other contexts.

User Opt In

Users can receive SMS/MMS mobile messages by affirmatively enrolling into the Program, such as via web or application-based enrollment forms. You acknowledge that this Agreement governs your participation in the Program regardless of the opt-in method you used to join. By participating in the Program, you consent to receive autodialed or prerecorded mobile marketing messages at the phone number associated with your opt-in, and you acknowledge that consent is not required to complete a purchase from Us. While you consent to receive messages delivered using an autodialer, nothing in this section should be construed to suggest or imply that any or all of Our mobile communications are sent using an automatic telephone dialing system ("ATDS" or "autodialer"). There may be messaging and data fees. Message frequency varies.

User Opt Out

You agree to reply STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT to any mobile message from Us in order to opt out of the Program if you do not wish to continue participating or if you no longer agree to this Agreement. You may receive an extra text message confirming your opt-out decision. You acknowledge and agree that the aforementioned opt-out options are the only viable alternatives. You also acknowledge and agree that any other manner of opting out, including but not limited to texting terms other than those listed above or directly requesting one of our workers to remove you from our list, is not an acceptable form of opting out.

Duty to Inform and Indemnify

If at any time you intend to stop using the mobile telephone number that has been used to subscribe to the Program, including by canceling your service plan or selling or transferring the phone number to a third party, you agree to complete the User Opt Out process outlined above prior to discontinuing your use of the mobile telephone number. You acknowledge and agree that your consent to do so constitutes a material part of these terms and conditions. You further agree that if you discontinue using your mobile telephone number without notifying Us of such change, you will be responsible for all costs (including attorneys' fees) and liabilities incurred by Us or any party that assists in the delivery of mobile messages as a result of claims brought by individuals who are later assigned that mobile telephone number. This obligation and agreement shall survive any termination or cancellation of your participation in any of our Programs.

YOU AGREE THAT YOU SHALL DEFEND, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD US HARMLESS FROM ANY CLAIM OR LIABILITY RESULTING FROM YOUR FAILURE TO NOTIFY US OF A CHANGE IN THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE PROVIDED, INCLUDING ANY CLAIM OR LIABILITY UNDER THE TELEPHONE CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT, 47 U.S.C. 227, et seq., OR SIMILAR STATE.

Program Specification

Without limiting the scope of the Program, users who opt-in to the Program can expect to receive messages regarding the promotion and sale of a variety of self-care consumer products. There may be checkout reminders in messages.

Price and Recurrence

There may be messaging and data fees. Message frequency varies. The Program entails frequent mobile communications, and additional mobile messages may be issued dependent on your interaction with Us.

Help with Instructions

Text "HELP" to the number you got messages from or email us at devon@themelobrand.com for assistance with the Program. Please be advised that using this email address to opt out of the program is not permitted. Opt-out requests must be submitted according to the methods outlined above.

MMS Disclosure

If your mobile device does not support MMS functionality, the program will transmit SMS TMs (terminating messages).

Our Disclaimer of Warranty

The Program is provided "as is" and may not be available in all regions or at all times. It may also cease to function if your wireless carrier makes modifications to its products, software, coverage, or other factors. We are not responsible for any delays or difficulties in receiving mobile texts related to this program. Delivery of mobile messages is contingent upon successful transmission from your wireless service provider/network operator, which is beyond Our control. Carriers are not accountable for delayed or undelivered mobile communications.

Participant Requirements

You must have your own wireless device capable of two-way messaging, be using a participating wireless carrier, and be a subscriber to a wireless service that includes text messaging. Not all cell phone service providers offer the required service to participate. Check your phone's text messaging capabilities for specific instructions.

Age Limitation

You may not use or interact with the Platform if you are under the age of eighteen (18). If you are under the age of eighteen (18), you must have parental or legal guardian consent to use or interact with the Platform. By using or interacting with the Platform, you recognize and agree that you are not under the age of eighteen (18), are under the age of eighteen (18) and have parental or legal guardian consent to use or interact with the Platform, or are of legal adult age in your jurisdiction. By using or interacting with the Platform, you recognize and accept that your jurisdiction's Applicable Law permits you to use or interact with the Platform.

Prohibited Content

You acknowledge and agree not to transmit any content that is prohibited via the Platform. Among the prohibited content are:

  • Any behavior that is fraudulent, libelous, defamatory, scandalous, threatening, harassing, or stalking;
  • Offensive material, such as profanity, obscenity, lasciviousness, violence, bigotry, hatred, and discrimination based on race, gender, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age;
  • Infected computer programs, viruses, worms, and other malicious malware;
  • Any product, service, or marketing that is illegal in the area where it is received;
  • Any content that implicates or refers protected health information under HIPAA or HITEC;
  • Other content banned by Applicable Law in the jurisdiction from which the mail was sent.

Dispute Resolution

In the event of a dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Us, or between you and/or any other third-party service provider acting on Our behalf to transmit mobile messages within the scope of the Program, arising out of or relating to federal or state statutory claims, common law claims, this Agreement, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement, the parties agree to submit the dispute, claim, or controversy to binding arbitration.

The parties agree to submit the disagreement to binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in effect at the time of the dispute. Except as otherwise provided herein, the arbitrator shall apply, without regard to its conflict of laws rules, the substantive laws of the Federal Judicial Circuit where MELO Labs, Inc.'s principal place of business is located. Within ten (10) calendar days following service of the arbitration demand on a party, the parties must jointly pick an arbitrator with at least five years of experience in that capacity and with knowledge and experience of the subject matter of the dispute. In the event that the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within ten (10) calendar days, a party may ask the AAA to appoint an arbitrator who meets the same experience criterion. The arbitrator shall decide the enforceability and interpretation of this arbitration agreement in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") in the case of a dispute. In place of pursuing emergency injunctive relief from a court, the parties agree that the Emergency Measures of Protection regulations of the AAA shall apply. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and neither party shall have any appellate rights other than those specified in section 10 of the FAA. Each party shall be responsible for its proportionate share of the arbitrator and arbitration administration fees; however, the arbitrator shall have the authority to require one party to pay all or a portion of such fees as part of a reasoned conclusion.

The parties agree that the arbitrator's authority to award attorneys' fees should be limited to the extent expressly permitted by statute or contract. The arbitrator shall have no authority to award punitive damages, and each party waives any right to seek or recover punitive damages in any arbitration-resolved matter. The parties agree to arbitrate only on an individual basis, and this agreement prohibits class arbitration and claims asserted as a class representative or member. Unless required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, unless disclosure is necessary to defend or assert a lawful claim. In the event that any term or provision of this Section is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Section or render such term or provision invalid or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. The parties waive their right to a jury trial if for whatever reason a dispute moves to court rather than arbitration. This arbitration clause shall survive any cancellation or termination of your participation agreement with any of our Programs.

Miscellaneous

You warrant and represent to Us that you have all rights, power, and authority necessary to agree to these Terms and perform your responsibilities hereunder, and that nothing in this Agreement or in the performance of such obligations will cause you to break any other agreement or duty. The failure of any party to exercise any of its rights under this agreement will not be considered a waiver of those rights. If any section of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be reduced or removed to the minimal extent required so that this Agreement will be valid and enforceable. Unless specifically indicated differently in writing, this Agreement applies to any new features, modifications, updates, or enhancements to the Program. We retain the right to modify this Agreement on occasion. You will be informed of any modifications to this Agreement. You acknowledge that it is your duty to periodically examine this Agreement and be aware of any modifications. By continuing to engage in the Program after such modifications, you accept the changed terms of this Agreement.
