Terms & Conditions
Welcome to Herench!
Herench and its subsidiaries and affiliates ("Herench", "we", "us" or "our"), provide website features and other products and services to you when you visit or shop our family of websites (including mobile websites) and our mobile applications, or use our software in connection with any of the foregoing, in each case subject to your compliance with these Terms of Use.
By using the Sites, you affirm that you are able and legally competent to agree to and comply with these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use or if you are not legally competent to agree to them, then you may not use the Sites.
Please note that these Terms of Use contain provisions that govern the resolution of claims between Herench and you, including an arbitration agreement, class action waiver, and jury trial waiver that affect your rights. In arbitration, there is no judge or jury and there is less discovery and appellate review than in court. Please see the Legal Disputes section for complete details and review carefully.
Information security is important to Herench. We have established appropriate physical, electronic and managerial safeguards to protect the information that we collect from or about our users. Herench does, however, reserve the right at all times to disclose any information as Herench deems necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request. Please click here for more information.
You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account on the Sites, and for establishing security procedures for maintaining the security and confidentiality of passwords associated with your account. You may not share your account or password with anyone, and you agree to (1) notify Herench immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your password or any other breach of security; and (2) exit from your account at the end of each session on the Sites. You agree not to create an account using a false identity or information, or on behalf of someone other than yourself.
Changes
Herench reserves the right, at any time, to change these Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy and/or the Sites. Changes, however, shall not apply retroactively to claims for which you or Herench have given notice. Your use of the Sites following any such change constitutes your agreement to follow and be bound by the Terms of Use and/or Privacy Policy as revised. The revised Terms of Use and/or Privacy Policy supersede all previous versions, notices or statements regarding the Sites. If we request, you agree to sign a non-electronic version of these Terms of Use.
We will notify you of any change to these Terms of Use by any reasonable means, such as by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of these Terms of Use.
Intellectual Property Rights
The Sites contain valuable trademarks and service marks owned and used by Herench, including but not limited to, Herench, the Herench design logo, Herench, AllModern, Birch Lane, Perigold, and the tag lines "every style every home" and "a zillion things home" (collectively, the "Herench Marks"). Any use of the Herench Marks without the prior written permission of Herench is strictly prohibited. The arrangement and layout of the Sites, including but not limited to, the Herench Marks, images, text, graphics, buttons, screenshots, music, digitally downloadable files, and other content or material (collectively, the "Site Content"), are the sole and exclusive property of Herench.
UNAUTHORIZED COPYING, REPRODUCTION, MODIFYING, REPUBLISHING, UPLOADING, DOWNLOADING, POSTING, TRANSMITTING, MAKING DERIVATIVE WORKS OF OR DUPLICATING ALL OR ANY PART OF THE SITES IS PROHIBITED.
Herench uses a network of independent product and content suppliers, distributors and other such third parties to supply some of the products and content advertised on the Sites. All other trademarks, service marks, product names, package designs and company names or logos associated with these product and content suppliers, distributors and other such third parties that are not owned by us but appear on the Sites are the property of their respective owners.
For claims of copyright infringement, please see our Copyright Policy.
Acceptable Use Policy
By submitting User Content and otherwise using the Sites, you agree not to: (i) submit any User Content that is protected by or otherwise subject to any third party intellectual property or proprietary rights (including any privacy and publicity rights) unless you own, or have permission from the rightful owner of such rights to post such User Content and to grant Herench all of the rights granted herein; (ii) submit any User Content containing minors’ likenesses that does not comport with relevant laws, rules, and regulations (iii) upload, post, e-mail or otherwise transmit any content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, hateful or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable; (iv) use the Sites to harm any person or entity, including Herench; (v) impersonate any person or entity, including but not limited to, a representative of Herench, or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with a person or entity; (vi) forge headers or otherwise manipulate identifiers in order to disguise the origin of any content transmitted to or through the Sites; (vii) upload, post, e-mail or otherwise transmit any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, junk mail or any other form of solicitation; (viii) upload, post, e-mail or otherwise transmit any content that contains computer viruses or other computer code, files or programs that interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of the Sites or any other computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment; (ix) intentionally or unintentionally violate any applicable local, state, national or international laws, rules or regulations, including but not limited to those promulgated by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; (x) collect, store or use personal information about other users of the Sites without their consent; (xi) use the Sites (including through submission of User Content) to disparage or make unsubstantiated claims about any person, third party or its/their products or services; (xii) use any of the Sites in any manner that could overburden or impair any of the Sites or the networks or systems connected to the Sites; and/or (xiii) use any device, software or instrumentality to interfere with the proper working of the Sites or disobey any requirements, procedures, policies or regulations of networks connected to the Sites.
Product Orders
The receipt of an order number or an email order confirmation does not constitute the acceptance of an order or a confirmation of an offer to sell. Herench reserves the right, without prior notification, to limit the order quantity on any item and/or to refuse service to any customer. Verification of information may be required prior to the acceptance of an order. However, by confirming your purchase at the end of the checkout process, you agree to accept and pay for the products as well as the shipping and handling charges and applicable taxes. The sales tax is based on the applicable state and local tax rates and laws, as well as the relevant circumstances such as the shipping, destination and/or service location of your order. For example, certain orders placed via mobile application while engaging with store-specific mobile application features are accepted, and payment is deemed received, at the participating store location, so that in some states the order will be deemed placed at the store location. As another example, orders placed on the Sites without using a store-specific mobile application, for shipment to destinations within the State of Illinois, are sold by Herench, as indicated by your email order confirmation and invoice. Please consult a tax professional for more information regarding the applicable sales tax on your order. Your email order confirmation and invoice will identify the seller of record for your order and the applicable sales tax rate. Prices and availability of products on the Sites are subject to change without notice. Errors will be corrected when discovered and Herench reserves the right to revoke any stated offer and to correct any error, inaccuracy, or omission (including after an order has been submitted). Certain orders constitute improper use of the Sites and the Herench Rewards Program described below. Herench reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to refuse or cancel any order for any reason. Your account may also be restricted or terminated for any reason, at Herench's sole discretion. Items purchased pursuant to a quantity discount may be re-priced upon cancellation.
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold Herench and its agents and licensors harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of (i) your use of the Sites, including any User Content you submit, post to or transmit through the Sites, (ii) your violation of these Terms of Use or (iii) your violation of any rights of another user.
Legal Disputes
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. EXCEPT AS THE TERMS OF USE OTHERWISE PROVIDE, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS TO TRY ANY CLAIM IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Other rights that you would have if you went to court, such as access to discovery or appeals, also might be unavailable or limited in arbitration.
Arbitration Fees
Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the NAM Rules (or the AAA Rules should AAA be the designated administrator as set forth above). Upon a showing of financial hardship, Herench will consider your request to promptly reimburse your portion of the arbitration fees provided for in the NAM (or AAA) Rules.
Arbitrator Authority
The arbitrator has the sole authority to and shall address all claims or arguments by both parties concerning the formation, legality, and enforceability of this arbitration clause, the scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of any claim or issue arising between us.
Governing Law
You and Herench agree that any claim between us involves commerce under, and is governed exclusively by Hong Kong law, and not by any state or local laws, or the laws of other countries, concerning or purporting to place limits on the availability or scope of arbitration or in any way imposing requirements beyond or inconsistent with those set forth in the Hong Kong law.
Other
To the extent that any other provision of the Terms of Use is found to be inconsistent with rights, duties, and requirements of this arbitration agreement, or where the application of such a provision would change or render unenforceable any part of this arbitration agreement, such provision shall be null and void and the terms of this arbitration agreement shall control.
Termination
Your ability to access and use the Sites remains in effect until terminated in accordance with these Terms of Use. You agree that Herench, in its sole discretion, may terminate your account and your use of the Sites and may remove and delete your User Content if Herench believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with these Terms of Use or for any other reason. Herench also may in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Sites, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Sites may be effected without prior notice and you acknowledge and agree that Herench may bar any further access to the Sites. Further, you agree that Herench will not be liable to you or any third-party for any termination of access to the Sites.
For instructions for deleting your account, please see the "Registering for the Service" section of our Privacy Policy.
The provisions of the Intellectual Property Rights, User-Generated Content, Acceptable Use Policy, Disclaimer of Warranties, Indemnity, Limitation of Liability, Legal Dispute sections, together with and any other rights and obligations which by their nature are reasonably intended to survive such termination, will survive any termination of these Terms of Use.
Right to Access
YOU MUST BE AT LEAST AGE 13 TO USE THE SITES. By using the Sites, you affirm that you are over age 13. If you are under age 13, you may not access or use the Sites.
IF YOU ARE A PARENT OR GUARDIAN THAT PROVIDES CONSENT TO YOUR TEENAGER'S REGISTRATION WITH AND USE OF THE SITES, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH TEENAGER'S USE OF THE SITES.
General Information
No waiver of any provision or any breach of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provisions or any other or further breach. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, the balance of the Agreement shall continue to be fully valid, binding, and enforceable. These Terms of Use set forth the entire Agreement between you and Herench with respect to use of the Sites and supersede any prior agreements between you and Herench relating to such subject matter. The Terms are not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with Herench's prior written consent. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder will be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by these Terms of Use. Any heading, caption or section title contained herein is inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way defines or explains any section or provision hereof. Herench's performance of these Terms of Use is subject to existing laws and legal process, and nothing contained in these Terms of Use is in derogation of Herench's right to comply with governmental, court and law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your use of the Sites or information provided to or gathered by Herench with respect to such use. A printed version of these Terms of Use and of any notices given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms of Use to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. The parties agree that all correspondence relating to these Terms of Use must be written in the English language.
