TERMS & CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE AND USE OF PRODUCT(S)

When you buy a product or receive a free sample or gift of a product (hereinafter referred to as the “PURCHASER”) from ARMOR4ME, LLC (“A4M”), the purchase itself acts as confirmation and acknowledgment that you have reached the age of adulthood (over the age of 18) and that you have read, understand, and accept all of the terms and conditions associated with the purchase and use of the product(s) received from A4M (the “Agreement”).

Ownership of body armor and ballistic armor products is restricted and/or illegal for residents of certain cities, certain states, for convicted felons or people with a criminal record, for example.  PURCHASER acknowledges that you do not fall into one of these categories. We do not condone, knowingly facilitate or promote the sale of ballistic armor or any body armor products to minors or felons, which is against federal law in the US.

If you are under the age of 18 or a convicted felon you are required by law to get written permission from your local police department and your employer so that you have proof that you’ve received permission before you can buy body armor and ballistic armor products. We are happy to assist law enforcement if they need information from us if a law has been broken and we have proof that such a crime was committed.

If law enforcement, for any reason whatsoever, needs information in order to prosecute someone who owns body armor that legally should not (or any other product purchased from A4M), we will provide information pertaining to that individual’s purchase in an effort to fully cooperate with such law enforcement officials.

By purchasing products sold by A4M, you confirm that you do not intend to use any of these item(s) illegally according to the laws of your state or federal government. We also reserve our right to refuse the sale of any product to any person at any time at our own discretion. When you make any purchase you are confirming and attesting to the following:  1) You have reached the legal age to own the item you are purchasing. 2) You have no criminal background. 3) You are not in violation of any Federal or State laws by making this purchase. 4) You are by law in your state allowed to purchase the specified item. 5) You are not prohibited by law to purchase or own the items selected. 6) You do not participate in criminal activity or belong to any criminal groups. 7) You are not legally prevented from owning body armor and/or firearms.

If you are a law-abiding upstanding citizen seeking protection for yourself and/or your family, there should be no problem fulfilling these requirements. Your desire to own and use body armor should be for lawful purposes only. It is your responsibility as the PURCHASER, and your responsibility only, to ensure that all transactions you engage in comply with US Federal, State and Local Statutes as well as all Codes and Ordinances.

If you intend to sell any items purchased from us, you must abide by distribution laws or any other applicable laws regarding the sale or distribution of these products. The laws are very strict when it comes to selling specific products and it your sole responsibility to ensure that you are not violating any laws. If you intend to sell or export any of these products, there are state and/or federal laws that you must comply with. If any of these laws are broken, you will be solely held liable. You follow through and do this at your own peril because we are not liable for the consequences of any actions that you take on your own.

When you purchase any body armor product, you accept and acknowledge the fact that ballistic armor is NOT 100% “bulletproof”, but that it is bullet resistant. NIJ standards are followed, and testing is done by the manufacturer of the ballistic armor plates to help ensure that the bullet is stopped according to the specified level. Ballistic armor will NOT 100% guarantee that bullets will not penetrate the ballistic armor plates or that the bullet’s impact will not cause other types of injuries, even when the armor does stop the bullet.

PURCHASER understands that if a bullet hits you, there is always the risk you will be injured, even if your protective vest absorbs the bullet, preventing it from penetrating your body. The type of injuries reported in tests and in the field are broken bones, severe bruising and/or major internal injuries that could in some instances result in loss of life. If a bullet strikes you, even if you are wearing your body armor vest, you should immediately seek medical attention to ensure that you have no internal injuries. This is whether you physically feel any pain or injury from the impact or not.

A4M assumes no liability whatsoever for the use or misuse of any of the products we sell or donate. PURCHASER hereby contracts and agrees that they themselves or his/her agents, heirs, and/or assigns shall NEVER bring any legal action against us in any court of law. PURCHASER shall indemnify and hold harmless A4M and its directors, officers, employees, agents, stockholders, affiliates, subcontractors and clients from and against all allegations, claims, actions, suits, demands, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses, settlements, judgments, costs and expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and costs).

PURCHASER agrees that this Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this Agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in Seattle, Washington before one arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in accordance with the Expedited Procedures in those Rules.

PURCHASER acknowledges and confirms that you have read and fully understand all our requirements, that you meet them all, and that you accept the terms and conditions of purchase and use of product and this Agreement.
