Incorporated by reference into all Agreements, Invoices, and Terms of Sale

Effective Date: April 19, 2026  

AGREEMENT UPON PAYMENT

By completing any payment transaction with Azm International LLC — whether by credit card, ACH, wire, check, digital wallet, or any other method — the Customer or Client expressly acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by this Policy in its entirety, without the requirement of a separate written signature. In accordance with the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act, 15 U.S.C. § 7001), this electronic agreement carries the full legal force of a written, signed contract. This Policy constitutes a binding legal agreement effective at the moment payment is processed. Persons under 18 years of age are not permitted to transact without verified parental or guardian consent.

§ 2  AGE & LEGAL CAPACITY

  1. Minimum Age. By transacting with the Company, the Customer represents and warrants that they are at least eighteen (18) years of age, or the age of majority in their jurisdiction if greater, and possess the full legal capacity to enter into binding contracts.
  2. Minors. Individuals under the age of 18 may not purchase from the Company without the verified consent of a parent or legal guardian, who shall assume full contractual responsibility.
  3. Entities. If a Customer is transacting on behalf of a legal entity, they represent and warrant that they have authority to bind that entity to this Policy.
  4. Voidable Contracts. The Company reserves the right to cancel and refund any transaction upon discovering the Customer lacked legal capacity at the time of purchase.

Iowa Code § 599.1 establishes the age of majority at 18 years. Contracts with minors are voidable at the minor’s election under Iowa common law.

  • Return Window. Returns may be requested within fourteen (14) calendar days of confirmed delivery as recorded in the Carrier’s tracking system. Requests after this window will be declined without exception.

  • Inspection & Deductions. Upon receipt the Company will inspect within five (5) business days: (a) Original condition — full refund issued; (b) Damaged or altered — deduction proportionate to diminished value at the Company’s reasonable discretion; (c) Missing components — documented replacement cost deducted from refund.
  • Refund Processing. Approved refunds will be returned to the original payment method within seven (7) to ten (10) business days of inspection completion.

§ 4  ORDER CANCELLATION (PRE-DISPATCH)

  • Cancellation Window. A Customer may request cancellation of a Physical Product order within two (2) business hours of payment confirmation, provided the order has not yet been dispatched or handed to a Carrier.
  • How to Cancel. Cancellation requests must be submitted by Written Notice to [email protected] with the order number and subject line “ORDER CANCELLATION.” Requests by phone, social media, or any other channel shall not constitute valid cancellation notice.
  • Post-Dispatch. Once an order has been dispatched, cancellation is not possible. The Customer must follow the return procedure in § 3 upon delivery.
  • Digital Products & Services. Orders for Digital Products and Digital Services may not be cancelled once the Company has commenced delivery, fulfillment, or work.
  • Restocking Fee. The Company reserves the right to apply a restocking fee of up to fifteen percent (15%) of the order value on cancelled Physical Product orders where processing costs have already been incurred.

§ 5  MANUFACTURER WARRANTY — DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

  1. No Company Warranty. The Company is a reseller and/or distributor and does not manufacture Physical Products. The Company makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding quality, fitness for purpose, merchantability, or defect-free condition of any Physical Product.
  2. Manufacturer’s Warranty Only. Any warranty applicable to a Physical Product is solely that of the original manufacturer. The Customer’s sole remedy for product defects lies against the manufacturer under its applicable warranty terms.
  3. Defect Claims. Customers must contact the manufacturer directly for defect claims. The Company may, at its sole discretion, assist in facilitating communication but bears no financial or legal liability for the outcome.

IMPORTANT: By purchasing a Physical Product from Azm International LLC, the Customer expressly waives any claim against the Company for product defects.

§ 6  CARRIER MISHANDLING — LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

  1. Risk Transfer. Once a Physical Product is tendered to a Carrier, responsibility for safe and timely delivery transfers to the Carrier. The Company shall not be liable for any loss, theft, damage, delay, or misdelivery caused by the Carrier.
  2. Good-Faith Efforts. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to package goods securely and engage reputable Carriers. These efforts do not create any warranty or guarantee of delivery outcomes.
  3. Carrier Claims. In the event of loss or damage, the Customer must notify the Company in Writing within five (5) business days of the expected delivery date. The Company will assist in good faith with a Carrier claim. Any compensation is subject to the Carrier’s own policy and liability limits.

§ 7  DIGITAL PRODUCTS — NO REFUND POLICY

All Digital Product sales are final and non-refundable once any of the following has occurred: (a) the product is downloaded; (b) a license key or access credential is delivered or accessed; or (c) the product is activated or redeemed. The Customer expressly waives any right of withdrawal upon delivery, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

§ 8  DIGITAL SERVICES — REFUND & REVISION TERMS

  • Non-Refundable Upon Commencement. Digital Services are non-refundable once work has commenced, unless otherwise specified in a written Service Agreement.
  • Revisions. Revision rights are exclusively as defined in the applicable Service Agreement. No obligation exists to provide revisions beyond agreed scope.
  • Failure to Deliver. If the Company fails to deliver the agreed scope within the agreed timeframe, and such failure is not attributable to the Client or a Force Majeure Event, the Client may submit Written Notice within seven (7) days of the missed deadline. The Company may issue a partial or full refund or re-perform the service, subject to § 14 liability limits.

§ 9  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY — DIGITAL SERVICE DELIVERABLES

  • Ownership Prior to Full Payment. All Deliverables remain the exclusive intellectual property of the Company until full and final payment has been received.
  • Transfer Upon Full Payment. Upon receipt of full payment, the Company assigns to the Client all rights, title, and interest in and to the final Deliverables, unless the Service Agreement expressly provides otherwise.
  • Retained Rights. The Company retains the right to display Deliverables in its portfolio and marketing materials, unless the Client requests confidentiality in writing prior to project commencement.
  • Third-Party Materials. Where Deliverables incorporate third-party licensed assets, the Client is responsible for obtaining and maintaining required end-user licenses. The Company is not liable for the Client’s use of Deliverables in violation of third-party license terms.
  • Client-Provided Materials. The Client warrants that any materials provided to the Company do not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights and shall indemnify the Company against any claims arising from such materials.

Under 17 U.S.C. § 101, copyright vests in the creator by default. This clause provides the necessary assignment — do not remove it.

§ 10  SHIPPING FEES — NON-REFUNDABLE

All Shipping Fees are strictly non-refundable in all circumstances, including: approved product returns; 3PL-fulfilled orders; shipments lost, delayed, or damaged in transit; and orders cancelled after physical dispatch. See § 11 for the limited federal law exception applicable to Company-caused shipping delays.

§ 11  FTC MAIL & INTERNET ORDER RULE COMPLIANCE

  • Shipping Timeframe. The Company will ship Physical Product orders within the timeframe stated at the time of purchase. Where no timeframe is stated, the Company will ship within thirty (30) days of payment confirmation, in accordance with the FTC Mail, Internet, or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule (16 CFR Part 435).
  • Delay Notification. If the Company is unable to ship within the stated or implied timeframe, the Company will notify the Customer by email prior to the expected ship date and provide a revised estimated ship date.
  • Customer’s Right to Cancel on Delay. Upon receiving a delay notification, the Customer may cancel the order by Written Notice within the response window provided. If the Customer elects to cancel due to the Company’s failure to ship on time, a full refund — including Shipping Fees — will be issued within seven (7) business days. This is the sole circumstance under which Shipping Fees are refundable.
  • Deemed Acceptance. If the Customer does not respond to a delay notification within the stated response window, the Customer is deemed to have consented to the revised shipping date.

This section reflects mandatory obligations under 16 CFR Part 435. These rights cannot be contractually waived and supersede § 10 in the specific circumstance of a Company-caused delay.

§ 12  TAXES, DUTIES & CUSTOMS FEES

  • Sales Tax. Where required by applicable law, the Company will collect and remit sales tax on orders shipped to Iowa addresses and any other jurisdictions where the Company has a sales tax nexus. Applicable tax will be displayed at checkout.
  • Use Tax. Customers in jurisdictions where sales tax is not collected by the Company may be responsible for self-reporting and remitting use tax to their applicable taxing authority.
  • Import Duties & Customs. For orders shipped internationally, the Customer is solely responsible for all import duties, customs fees, brokerage charges, and any applicable VAT imposed by the destination country. The Company has no control over and no liability for these charges.
  • Non-Refundable on Return. Taxes, duties, and customs fees paid by the Customer are not refundable by the Company. Customers seeking refunds of duties on returned goods must apply directly to the relevant customs authority.

Iowa Code § 423.2 imposes sales tax on most goods. This section should be reviewed annually by a tax advisor as the Company’s nexus expands.

§ 13  PAYMENT DEFAULT & NON-PAYMENT

  • Payment Terms. All invoices are due in full upon the date stated on the invoice. Where no date is stated, payment is due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date.
  • Late Payment Interest. Overdue amounts shall accrue interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (18% per annum), or the maximum rate permitted by Iowa law, whichever is lower, from the due date until full payment is received.
  • Service Suspension. The Company reserves the right to suspend or terminate any ongoing service, withhold Deliverables, or place a hold on order fulfilment without liability upon ten (10) days’ written notice of non-payment.
  • Collection Costs. In the event the Company must pursue collection of overdue amounts, the Customer shall be liable for all reasonable costs of collection, including attorney’s fees and court costs, to the extent permitted by Iowa law.
  • Failed Payments. In the event a payment is returned, reversed, or declined, the Company may charge a returned payment processing fee of up to thirty-five dollars ($35.00), in addition to any fees imposed by the Company’s payment processor.
  • Withholding of Deliverables. The Company shall have no obligation to release final Deliverables or transfer intellectual property while any invoice remains outstanding.

§ 14  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

  • General Cap. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company’s total aggregate liability to any Customer or Client — whether in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, statute, or otherwise — shall not exceed the Latest Invoice Amount. This cap applies even if the Company has been advised of the possibility of greater damages and even if a remedy fails its essential purpose.
  • Exclusion of Consequential Damages. The Company shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages — including lost profits, business interruption, loss of data, or reputational harm.
  • Services Liability. The Company’s maximum liability for Digital Services is unconditionally limited to the amount of the most recent invoice paid in connection with the applicable engagement.
  • Third Parties. The Company is not liable for the acts or omissions of Carriers, manufacturers, 3PL Providers, payment processors, or any other third party.
  • Iowa UCC. Nothing in this Policy excludes liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or any liability that cannot be excluded under Iowa Code § 554.2719 or applicable federal law.

NOTICE: To the extent Iowa law or applicable federal law prohibits certain limitations, those limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted.

§ 15  INDEMNIFICATION

  • Customer Indemnification of Company. The Customer shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and its officers, members, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of or related to: (a) the Customer’s breach of this Policy or any Service Agreement; (b) the Customer’s negligence or willful misconduct; (c) the Customer’s products, inventory, or content stored with or handled by the Company; (d) the Customer’s infringement of any third-party intellectual property rights; or (e) the Customer’s violation of any applicable law or regulation.
  • Company Indemnification of Customer. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Customer from any third-party claims arising solely from the Company’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing its obligations.
  • Order Fulfilment Clients. Order Fulfilment Clients specifically indemnify the Company against any claims, fines, penalties, or liabilities arising from the nature, condition, or regulatory status of inventory stored with the Company.
  • Procedure. The indemnified party shall (a) promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any claim; (b) grant the indemnifying party sole control over the defense and settlement of the claim; and (c) provide reasonable cooperation. The indemnifying party shall not settle any claim that imposes obligations on the indemnified party without prior written consent.

§ 16  ORDER FULFILMENT — INSURANCE REQUIREMENT

  • Mandatory Insurance. Order Fulfilment Clients must maintain, at their own cost, adequate cargo and product liability insurance covering their inventory at full replacement value at all times.
  • Proof of Insurance. The Company may request a certificate of insurance at any time. Failure to provide proof within five (5) business days may result in suspension of fulfilment services without liability to the Company.

  • Client Liability. The Order Fulfilment Client shall be solely liable for all fines, penalties, remediation costs, and third-party claims arising from non-compliant inventory, and shall indemnify the Company in accordance with § 15.

IMPORTANT: Tendering prohibited goods may result in immediate termination of the fulfilment agreement and referral to appropriate regulatory authorities.

§ 18  FULFILMENT — WAREHOUSEMAN’S LIEN & ABANDONED INVENTORY

  • Warehouseman’s Lien. In accordance with Iowa Code § 554.7209, the Company shall have a warehouseman’s lien on all inventory in its possession for all lawful charges, fees, and expenses incurred, including any unpaid invoices.
  • Default & Notice. If an Order Fulfilment Client fails to pay any outstanding invoice within thirty (30) days of the due date, the Company will issue a Written Notice of Default. If the default is not cured within fifteen (15) days of such notice, the Company may enforce its lien.
