As part of the account registration process, you will enter your email address and provide a password. You agree that the information you supply during that registration process will be accurate and complete.

3. Crowd-Funded Products

Overview
When you back a Crowd-Funded Product, you are making a commitment to purchase the Crowd-Funded Product that will only be fulfilled if the minimum number of backings are met for the project during the Project Backing Period. Each Crowd-Funded Product will have its own duration when you can back the Crowd-Funded Product, each a “Project Backing Period.” Once the minimum number of backings is met, your backing becomes an “Order” and your payment is collected at the completion of the Project Backing Period, then the Crowd-Funded Product will be made and ultimately shipped.

Minimum Commitment Goal Requirement
You will provide your payment information when you back a Crowd-Funded Product, but you will not be charged at that time. You are only charged if the project reaches the minimum backing goal during the Project Backing Period. The exact amount you back is the amount Hasbro will collect, including an estimate of sales tax based upon shipping information provided. To the extent that the estimated sales tax collected is required to be adjusted when the product is shipped, Hasbro reserves the right to make any necessary adjustments. If the project has not reached its minimum backing goal during the Project Backing Period, you will not be charged, no funds will be collected, and no money will change hands. Check the main page for the Crowd-Funded Product you backed to see if the minimum commitment goal has been met.

Early Reservation of Charges
In some cases, we will reserve the charge on your card. Hasbro and its payment partners may authorize or reserve a charge on your payment method for any amount up to the full backing amount, at any time between your backing and the collection of funds.

Early Cancellation of Your Backing
You can cancel your backing at any time before the completion of the Project Backing Period by contacting customer support at 1-866-278-4264.

Revocation of Backing
We reserve the right to revoke your backing at any time in our sole reasonable discretion, including as a result of an actual or suspected violation of these Terms.

4. Payment and Billing Information; Fraudulent or Unauthorized Activity

By providing a credit card or other payment method that we accept, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the designated payment method and that you authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge your payment method for the total amount of your backing and/or Product or Order, as applicable (including any applicable taxes and other charges). If the payment method cannot be verified, is invalid or is otherwise not acceptable, your Order may be suspended or cancelled. You must resolve any problem we encounter before we will proceed with your Order. In the event you want to change or update payment information associated with your backing, you can do so at any time by contacting Hasbro’s Customer Support at 1-866-278-4264.

You acknowledge that the amount billed may vary due to promotional offers or changes in applicable taxes or other shipping charges described in the Shipping Section below, and you authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge your payment method for the corresponding amount.

As part of our order processing procedures, we may screen received backings and Orders for fraud or other types of unauthorized or illegal activity. We reserve the right to refuse to process an Order due to suspected fraud or unauthorized or illegal activity. If we suspect fraudulent, unauthorized or illegal activity, we may reject your backing or Order or we may contact you at the phone number or email address you provided to confirm your Order. We also reserve the right to cancel any accounts or refuse to ship to certain addresses due to suspected fraud or unauthorized or illegal activity. We take these measures to protect our customers as well as ourselves from fraud or other unauthorized or illegal activity.

5. Shipping

Shipping Address
We are currently shipping to the 50 United States, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, APO/FPO addresses that are outside of the United States, the District of Columbia, and Canada. Please note we cannot ship to any other locale at this time. We reserve the right to increase, decrease, add, or eliminate shipping, handling and processing charges from time to time, including based upon changes to your account, but we will provide a notice and receipt of the charges applicable to you. Generally, shipping is handled by a third-party courier. You agree that you will not obtain, or arrange for the direct shipment of, our Products for export.

Shipping Options
We offer several shipping options to meet your needs when shipping in the contiguous US and one option for shipments to Canada. Also, note that an additional fee of $20 may apply for shipping, handling or processing outside of the contiguous US, including: Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, and APO/FPO address and an additional fee of $25 for Canada. Once you receive your shipment notification email, please allow 7-10 business days from the date shipped and a minimum of 4 weeks to APO/FPO addresses for delivery.

Please allow extra shipping time for Orders delivered to Canada, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands and APO/FPO addresses.

Please note that for shipments of merchandise to Canada, the Canadian purchaser/recipient of the merchandise is the importer of record (the “Importer”) and is responsible for complying with all Canadian laws and regulations for importing such merchandise into Canada. When you place an order for shipment to Canada, you are authorizing our Canadian customs broker to act as agent on the Importer’s behalf (whether the Importer is you or another person) with Canada Border Services Agency (“CBSA”), to clear, report, and account for the imported merchandise with CBSA and remit to CBSA all applicable requirements. At check-out, the total amount for “Shipping” will include all applicable duties and fees (in addition to all freight and handling fees) and the total amount for “Taxes” shall include all applicable sales tax.

Estimated Shipping Date
For HasLab and pre-order product, the date listed on the Site is an estimate of when the Products are expected to ship — not a guarantee to fulfill by that date. The schedule may change as production on the Products continue. Some projects or Orders may contain multiple shipments. In these cases, you will see two estimated shipment dates.

For all other products, if all items are in stock, express orders are shipped overnight for delivery within one business day within the US. Express orders placed before 12 PM ET will ship the same business day (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays) if all items are in stock. Please note that orders placed on weekends or holidays will ship the next business day. Express service is not available for shipments to Canada, Puerto Rico, Hawaii or Alaska.

When your order consists of multiple items, we will always attempt to group your items into as few shipments as possible. At times, when your order contains multiple items, it may be necessary to send your items in separate shipments to ensure that you receive them in a timely manner.

Additional Shipping Information
Generally, shipping is handled by a third-party courier. All Products purchased from us are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that title to and the risk of loss of any such Product passes to you upon our delivery of the Product to the third-party courier. For more information on shipping please see the Shipping & Return Policy at www.HasbroPulse.com/shipping-and-return-policy, your Order confirmation, or the FAQ.

11.1 DISCLAIMERS
You assume all responsibility and risk with respect to your use of the Services.

THE SERVICES AND ALL CONTENT THEREOF (INCLUDING LINKED SITES) AND THE PRODUCTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND “WITH ALL FAULTS” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

You will indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the Hasbro Parties, from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (collectively, “Claims”) arising out of or related to your (a) use or misuse of the Site or Services; (b) your violation of these Terms; or (c) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party. You will promptly notify the Hasbro Parties of any third-party Claims, cooperate with the Hasbro Parties in defending such Claims and pay all fees, costs, and expenses associated with defending such Claims (including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees).

Back to top


13. Waiver; Remedies

The failure of Hasbro to partially or fully exercise any rights or the waiver of Hasbro of any breach of these Terms by you shall not prevent a subsequent exercise of such right by Hasbro or be deemed a waiver by Hasbro of any subsequent breach by you of the same or any other term of these Terms. The rights and remedies of Hasbro under these Terms and any other applicable agreement between you and Hasbro shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any such right or remedy shall not limit Hasbro’s right to exercise any other right or remedy.

Back to top


14. Governing Law; Venue

Any dispute arising from these Terms and your use of our Services will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Rhode Island, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of Rhode Island or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of Rhode Island and the United States, respectively, sitting in Providence, Rhode Island.

Back to top


15. Disputes

Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to waive your right to a jury trial and arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Hasbro and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this agreement.

Except for small claims disputes in which you or Hasbro seek to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or Hasbro seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property,
you and Hasbro waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services resolved in court. Instead, for any dispute that you have against Hasbro, you agree to first contact Hasbro and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to Hasbro by certified mail addressed to:

Hasbro, Inc.
Attention: General Counsel
1011 Newport Avenue
Pawtucket, RI 02861

The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and Hasbro cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may, as appropriate in accordance with this section, submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, where applicable, in court. All submitted disputes will be resolved through confidential binding arbitration held in in Providence, Rhode Island in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“Rules”) of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), which are available on the JAMS website and hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS or waive your opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason. To the extent that you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate our intellectual property rights, we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the State of Rhode Island. The arbitrator’s award will be final and binding and may be entered into as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of, related to or connected with the use of the Services or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim of action arose or be forever banned, which means that you and Hasbro will not have the right to assert the claim.

You and Hasbro agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this section will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms.

The arbitrators, Hasbro, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any proceedings, including but not limited to, any and all information gathered, prepared, and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. The arbitrators will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard that confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary.

You and Hasbro agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee and Hasbro will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by Company, Hasbro will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and Hasbro agree that the state or federal courts of the State of Rhode Island and the United States sitting in Providence, Rhode Island have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award.

YOU AND HASBRO AGREE THAT EACH MAY ONLY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
Further, unless both you and Hasbro agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date you first accepted the terms of this section by contacting Hasbro by certified mail addressed to:

Hasbro, Inc.
Attention: General Counsel
1011 Newport Avenue
Pawtucket, RI 02861

In order to be effective, the opt out notice must include your full name, address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with Section 14 (Governing Law; Venue).

If any portion of this arbitration section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (1) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (2) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of the arbitration section or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to the arbitration section; and (3) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this arbitration section is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this section will be enforceable.

19. Miscellaneous

The failure of Hasbro to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision.
