Terms of Service

Songbird Hearing, Inc. ("Songbird") operates http://www.songbirdhearing.com and other landing pages (the "Sites") that direct customers to http://www.songbirdhearing.com, conditioned upon your acceptance of the following terms, conditions, policies and notices ("Terms and Conditions"). By using the Sites, you signify your assent to these Terms and Conditions and any subsequent modifications. Songbird may revise these Terms and Conditions from time to time by updating this posting, with the new terms taking effect on the date of posting. You should review these Terms and Conditions every time you use these Sites as they are binding upon you.

Privacy

Please review our Privacy Policy, which governs your visit to the Sites.

Permitted Use

You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Sites. You may access and use the Sites for personal, non-commercial purposes only. As a condition to your continued use of the Sites, you warrant to Songbird that you will not use the Sites for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these Terms and Conditions. Songbird reserves the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, or cancel orders in its sole discretion.

Your Songbird Account

If you create an account on the Sites, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your computer, and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password. If you are under 18 years of age, you may only use the Sites with a parent or guardian.

Product Shipment

All products purchased through the Sites are shipped and billed by Songbird. Risk of loss passes to the purchaser upon delivery of a product to a common carrier. Information regarding estimated delivery schedules, delivery options, and payment terms are clearly posted on each product page, but are only estimates. Orders are typically shipped standard ground.

User Data

Songbird collects different types of information from users of the Sites. We collect "Personal Information," which, generally speaking, is information that identifies you individually, such as your name, account number, and billing address. We will only collect Personal Information about you that you provide to us voluntarily. For example, we collect Personal Information when you make a purchase on the Sites. If you do not want your Personal Information collected, please do not submit it to us. When you do provide us with Personal Information, we may store and evaluate that information to better understand your needs and how we can better serve you, and we may use that information to improve our service and to contact you. We do not now and do not intend to sell, rent, or market Personal Information about you to third parties. However, Songbird may disclose Personal Information about you in the following cases: (i) in connection with processing your transactions and requests with Songbird, (ii) to comply with a subpoena, search warrant, court order or other legal requirement; or (iii) in the event that Songbird has reason to believe that disclosing Personal Information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who, intentionally or unintentionally, may be causing injury or harm to the Sites, its users, or other persons or violating the Terms and Conditions of the Sites. Additionally, Songbird may, from time to time, notify you that a particular service (e.g., a rebate program) will require disclosure of your Personal Information. If you choose to participate in such a service, you consent to disclosure of your Personal Information.

Songbird also collects Non-Personal Information from users of the Sites. "Non-Personal Information" is information that does not itself identify you personally, such as the type of Internet browser or computer operating system you are using, and the domain name of the webSites from which you linked to the Sites. We may automatically (i.e., not via registration) collect Non-Personal Information when you connect to or use the Sites. We may store, compile, publish, promote, report, lease, sell, or otherwise disclose Non-Personal Information to third parties, provided that the information does not personally identify you.

Transaction Information

In facilitating transactions, Songbird collects Personal Information related to each transaction, such as the amount of the transaction and the necessary financial and identifying information, including relevant account numbers and addresses. Disclosure of Personal Information is required to conduct a transaction on the Sites.

Children

Songbird does not sell products for purchase by children. Children should not submit any Personal Information to us. If you are under 18 years of age, you may only use the Sites with your parent or guardian. Parents should be aware that Songbird's Privacy Policy governs our use of Personal Information. That information which is voluntarily given by children or others in chat sessions, email exchanges, bulletin boards or the like may be used to generate unsolicited mail. Songbird encourages all parents to instruct their children in the safe and responsible use of their Personal Information while using the Internet.

Information Placed Automatically

When you view the Sites, we may store some information on your computer. This information will be in the form of a "cookie" or similar file and can help us in many ways. For example, cookies allow us to tailor a website to better match your interests and preferences. With most Internet browsers, you can erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block a cookie or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please refer to your browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions.

Security

Songbird encrypts all Personal Information collected about you and stores that information in its data center protected by industry standard firewalls. However, please understand that absolute security does not exist on the Internet.

Company Sale

Personal and Non-Personal Information collected through the Sites is considered a trade secret of Songbird. As the owner of such information, we may disclose or sell such information as an asset of the company in conjunction with the sale to a third party of our company or a portion of our assets.

Third Party Sites

The Sites may contain links, including advertisements, to web sites operated by third parties ("Third Party Sites"). Because Songbird has no control over Third Party Sites, Songbird does not endorse, has not reviewed, and is not responsible for information collected about you by Third Party Sites. Your use of Third Party Sites is solely at your own risk.

Acceptance of Terms

By using the Sites you accept the terms and conditions of this statement. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, please exit the Sites immediately.

Notification of Changes

Songbird may change these Terms and Conditions from time to time. Please check these Terms and Conditions each time you visit the Sites so that you are aware of any changes. Your continued use of the Sites following the posting of changes to these terms and conditions will constitute acceptance to the amended Terms and Conditions.

Opt-out Procedures

Songbird provides users of the Sites with an easy way to stop receiving email offers. Although most of our customers tell us that they look forward to receiving these offers, we recognize your right to discontinue this service. To elect not to receive future email communications, send an email to Info@songbirdcustomerservice.com with the word "Remove" in the subject line.

Product Support and Returns

If you have difficulties with your order, please contact customer service at 1-800-789-1830 for help or return instructions. All Songbird products sold are subject to a 30-day money back guarantee, less Shipping & Handling. Songbird will not refund Shipping & Handling charges collected at point of sale. Songbird will not provide refunds for products clearly damaged or modified by the customer, through no fault of Songbird.

Security Policy

Your security and buying confidence is one of our highest considerations. Although no company can provide absolute security on the Internet, Songbird's Sites utilize an SSL web certificate capable of 256-byte encryption and provided by Thawte, Inc. ThawteTM is an international subsidiary of VeriSign, Inc, providing security for both US and Non-US electronic transactions. In addition the Sites incorporate digital certificates and online authentication. At Songbird we are committed to making your shopping experience both safe and pleasurable.

Unsolicited Comments

Any comments related to product, business, or marketing suggestions made through these Sites or sent to Songbird or its affiliates are unsolicited, nonconfidential, and nonattributable to the source. Songbird and its affiliates reserve the rights to use any suggestions or ideas as seen fit and to take ownership and possession of all such items and proceeds.

Community Forums

Songbird may provide blogs, message boards and other community forums ("Community Forums") on the Sites. If you use a Community Forum, you are solely responsible for your own communications and the consequences of posting those communications. Songbird does not assume any responsibility for the consequences of any Community Forum communications on or arising from use of the Songbird Sites. Songbird does not represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy or reliability of any of the material posted by Community Forum users or endorse any opinions expressed by such users. ANY RELIANCE UPON CONTENT POSTED IN A COMMUNITY FORUM IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Free Shipping for Life

From time to time, Songbird may offer customers free shipping & handling for any products sent to a customer who has selected the auto-delivery feature, which will send new product to the customer automatically at intervals of their choosing. The customer will also be billed for the product when shipped. Shipping and Handling will be free of charge, excluding on returns. Songbird calls this offer "Free Shipping" or "Free Shipping for Life". Should the customer opt-out of the auto-delivery feature, standard Shipping and Handling charges will apply and resume upon any subsequent purchase. If a customer has selected the auto-delivery feature and receives product under this feature and subsequently returns it, Songbird will collect a Shipping & Handling fee that was waived at the point of purchase as a part of the offer, refunding the balance of the purchase charge to the customer.

Share Songbird (Referring Friends and Family)

From time to time, Songbird may offer incentive rewards to customers to refer friends and family to Songbird. The incentive is contingent upon the referred friend or family member’s purchase of a new Songbird disposable hearing aid and may be revoked upon product returns during the 30-day return period. Given this, the delivery of the incentive reward will occur following this 30-day return period. The incentive is also contingent upon information provided by the referred friend or family member which identifies the referring customer. Songbird will make best effort to solicit this information and use it for the delivery of the incentive reward to the referring customer. Incentive rewards have no cash value, are non-refundable and non-transferable. Other terms and conditions may apply. Void where prohibited. Offers cannot be combined and are subject to restrictions and limitations.
