The products and services available on the Site, and any samples thereof CandleScience may provide to you, are for personal and/or professional use only. You may not sell or resell any of the products or services, or samples thereof, you purchase or otherwise receive from us. CandleScience reserves the right, with or without notice, to cancel or reduce the quantity of any order to be filled or products or services to be provided to you that we believe, in our sole discretion, may result in the violation of these Terms.

All content included on this site, such as text, graphics, marks, logos, button icons, images, audio clips, digital downloads, data compilations, and software (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) is the property of CandleScience, its subsidiaries or its content suppliers and protected by United States and international copyright and trademark laws.

All items purchased from the Site are made pursuant to a shipment contract. The shipment contract is completed at the time CandleScience (or one of its subsidiaries) places the ordered items on the truck for delivery to the carrier.  The risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.  

In addition to the above, CandleScience is not responsible for damage, condition issues, or loss that occurs to goods after they're delivered to you or your freight forwarder.  CandleScience is not able to provide a reimbursement of (or refund for) any goods confirmed as delivered by the carrier to you or your freight forwarder by the shipping provider. You should refuse any packages that arrive damaged and instruct your freight forwarder to do the same.  Should you have any issues with the delivery of your purchases, please do not hesitate to contact Customer Service.

The Site attempts to be as accurate as possible. However, we do not warrant that product descriptions or other content of this site is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. If a product offered by the Site itself is not as described, your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition.

To ensure that content is useful, we only allow product reviews to be written in the supported language(s) of the Site where it will appear. For example, we don't allow reviews written in Russian at this time. Additionally, product reviews should be solely focused on the product. Product reviews are not intended to be a forum for people to review policies, interactions with our Support team or Pickups team, or offer feedback about anything other than a product and the user’s experience with it. Any product review (as well as Disqus comments) with the following is subject to deletion and/or redaction in the sole discretion of CandleScience:

• Offensive language
• Profanity
• Business names / self-promotion / solicitation
• Names of CandleScience employees or other personally identifying information
• Feedback about anything other than the product
• Content that contains false or misleading claims Links of any kind
• Spam
• Requests/questions/inquiries
• Repetitive text
• Nonsense and gibberish
• Computer or AI generated responses
• Content that's just punctuation and symbols
• ASCII art (pictures created using symbols and letters)

Consequences for violation of these guidelines include: revision, redaction or deletion of the content, limitations on the user’s ability to use community features, or suspension or termination of user’s account. If we reject or remove someone's review because it violates these guidelines, we may choose not to accept any more reviews from the user for the same product. If someone violates state and federal laws, we may be required to take legal action that results in civil and/or criminal penalties.

In addition to the above criterion, CandleScience reserves the right to amend, redact, or delete any user comments for any other reason in its sole discretion.

To the full extent permissible by applicable law, CandleScience (including all its subsidiaries and assigns) disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. 

CandleScience does not warrant that the Site, its servers, or e-mail sent from CandleScience are free of viruses or other harmful components, despite making best efforts to ensure such is not the case. CandleScience (and its subsidiaries or assigns) will not be liable for any damages of any kind arising from the use of the Site, including, but not limited to direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, and consequential damages.  There are no warranties which extend beyond the description on the face hereof.

Certain state laws do not allow limitations on implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. If these laws apply to you, some or all of the above disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations may not apply to you, and you might have additional rights.

CandleScience is not responsible for damages to personal or commercial property as a result of breakage, leakages, spillage, or other damage from product escaping its packaging, whether as a result of damage in transport, or otherwise. 

CandleScience attempts to be as accurate as possible, however, occasionally the Site may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions. We do not warrant that product descriptions or other content of the Site is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update information if any information on the Site is inaccurate at any time.

By purchasing products or services made available through the Site, you represent that you have reached the age of majority (which in most states is 18 years old) and have the legal capacity to enter into a contract. If you are under the age of majority or cannot lawfully enter into a contract, you must have your parent or guardian review these Terms and the Privacy Policy and register or place an order on your behalf. CandleScience may use a third-party payment processor to process credit card transactions made through the Site. You are also responsible for paying any governmental taxes imposed in connection with the use of the Site or the purchase or any products or services made available through the Site, including sales, use, and excise taxes (where applicable).

Per our Terms of Sale, you have agreed to address any and all product and transaction claims solely with us and not to initiate, under any set of circumstances, charge refusals or charge-backs with credit card issuers. Should a User file a charge-back with no prior communication to us regarding any issues or concerns, any attempt at ordering from CandleScience in the future will not be accepted.  Furthermore, any issuance of a charge-back request for items a User has received, or used other payment methods which a User knows to be invalid, constitutes fraud and is illegal.  Any User attempting such activity, including any associates, will no longer be allowed to conduct business with CandleScience.  Should CandleScience become aware of other attempts to make a purchase through CandleScience’s website by such Users or associates, any and all such transactions will be cancelled immediately, and appropriate civil and criminal measures will be taken.  These decisions are final and will not be overturned. However, if you believe your account has been suspended in error, please contact our Customer Service department and your information will be forwarded to our legal and financial teams for review.
