When you place an order through the Lifeworks ECommerce, we may verify your method of payment, shipping address and/or tax exempt identification number, if any, before processing your order. Your placement of an order via the Lifeworks ECommerce is an offer to purchase our products or services. Lifeworks may accept your order by processing your payment and shipping the product or documentation of service, or may, for any reason, decline to accept your order or any part of your order. No order shall be considered to be accepted by Lifeworks until the product has been shipped. If we decline to accept your order, we will attempt to notify you using the email address you have provided with your order.

When you place an order or make a donation through the Lifeworks ECommerce, you are required to provide a valid email address, which we may use to communicate with you regarding the status of your order, advise you regarding shipment of backordered products, and to provide you with any other notices, disclosures or other communications relating to your order. You agree that Lifeworks will not be responsible for any damage you incur, or information you do not receive, as a result of your failure to provide a valid email address.

Product Display / Colors

Lifeworks attempts to display as accurately as possible the colors of the products shown on the Site. However because the colors you see will depend on many factors, including your monitor or printer, Lifeworks cannot guarantee that the color you see matches the product color.

Pricing and Product Information

Lifeworks makes every effort to provide current and accurate information relating to Lifeworks' products and prices, but does not guarantee the currency or accuracy of any such information. Information relating to Lifeworks' products is subject to change without notice. Prices are subject to change at any time prior to Lifeworks' acceptance of your order. In the event we discover a material error in the description or availability of a product or service that affects your outstanding order with Lifeworks, or an error in pricing, we will notify you of the corrected version, and you may choose to accept the corrected version, or cancel the order. If you choose to cancel the order, and your credit card has already been charged for a purchase, Lifeworks will issue a credit to your credit card in the amount of the charge.

Payment and Shipment

You may pay for your order one of the following major credit cards, issued in the United States of America: Visa, MasterCard, and American Express cards. Orders placed before 3:00 p.m. central time, Monday through Friday, will generally be processed, billed, and shipped that day. Orders placed after 3:00 p.m. central time, Monday through Friday, or on weekends, will generally be processed and billed that day, and will generally be shipped the following business day.

In most cases, your credit card will not be charged if Lifeworks declines to accept your order. If your card has been charged, Lifeworks will process a refund.

In the event your shipment will be delayed more than thirty (30) days after the date of your order, Lifeworks will attempt to notify you by email, using the email address you provided, and you may elect to cancel the order. If you elect to cancel the order, Lifeworks will issue a refund.

Sales Tax

Lifeworks collects and remits sales taxes as required by law on purchases made via the Site. If you have tax-exempt status, you must provide a valid tax exemption number evidencing your status at the time of purchase. Lifeworks will not refund tax amounts collected in the event a valid number is not provided. If you provide a number that is not accepted for any reason by any governmental or regulatory authority, and Lifeworks is required to pay tax on your purchase, you will reimburse Lifeworks for the amount of such tax, and Lifeworks's reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the payment and collection of such tax.

No Warranties

The Lifeworks products are provided "as is" and without warranty.

You may return any product purchased through the Lifeworks ECommerce within thirty (30) days of purchase; provided that the product is unused and repackaged in its original packaging materials.
