The terms of this Use Policy, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by You, but may be assigned by 4ocean without restriction.

1. Jurisdiction and Disputes

Except where and to the extent prohibited by law, by using the Website You and We agree that, if there is any controversy, claim, action, or dispute arising out of or related to Your use of the Website, or the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of this Agreement or any part of it (“Dispute”), both Parties shall first try in good faith to settle such Dispute by providing written notice to the other Party describing the facts and circumstances of the Dispute and allowing the receiving party 30 days in which to respond to or settlement the Dispute. 

Notice can be sent to: 4ocean Public Benefit Corporation, Attention: 4ocean, Legal Dept., 3600 FAU Boulevard, Boca Raton, FL 33431.

You and We agree that this dispute resolution process is a condition that must be satisfied before initiating any other action or filing any claim against the other Party.

Any Dispute or claim arising from or relating in any way to Your use of the Website, or to any products or services sold or distributed by 4ocean or through the Website that cannot be resolved between the Parties will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Use Policy. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award, on an individual basis, the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must interpret and apply the terms of this Use Policy just as a court would. We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, We each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that You or We may bring suit in court to seek injunctive relief for infringement or other threatened or actual violation of intellectual property rights. 

To begin an arbitration proceeding, You must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing Your claim to 4ocean Public Benefit Corporation, Attention: 4ocean, Legal Dept., 3600 FAU Boulevard, Boca Raton, FL 33431. The arbitration will be conducted by and under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in Boca Raton, Florida, or at another mutually agreed location.

Any claim or cause of action You may have with respect to 4ocean or the Website must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arose.

The terms inure to the benefit of 4ocean’s successors, assigns, and licensees.

1. Disclaimer:

The ratio of one product to one pound of trash removed is an approximation based on total revenues of the bracelets and total trash removed from the ocean by 4ocean within 12 months of the period of time that the bracelet was sold. Some of the trash that has been allocated to the 4ocean one pound per bracelet pledge throughout this website may not have been removed straight from the ocean but from a coastline and is considered ocean-bound trash. 4ocean defines the term "Trash" as any man made material that does not belong in the ocean and is damaging to the environment. 

Net Profit: The Net Profit for temporary campaigns will be calculated as: The total sales accrued from the particular bracelet subtracted from the Cost of Goods Sold, the operating expenses from the period of time that the bracelet was for sale, and the operating/marketing expenses that were incurred specific to the bracelet campaign.
