- SERVICES
- a) Overview
CustomHappy uses the Services to process user orders for Products (“Orders''), accept images for the purpose of providing Products, process user payments, aggregate user Orders, and transfer them to a network of unaffiliated, third party manufacturers (each, a “Vendor”) for production and fulfillment. CustomHappy does not manufacture Products, and once an Order is accepted by a Vendor, the Vendor is responsible for Order fulfillment. Subject to these Terms, CustomHappy will make the Services available to you. In addition to the Product manufacturing performed by Vendors, CustomHappy does and may engage third parties to provide elements of the Services (“Third Party Service Providers'') at its sole discretion, provided that we remain responsible for the compliance of Third Party Service Providers with these Terms to the same extent as if we had performed those functions ourselves.
- b) Orders
- Users submit all Orders to CustomHappy via the website or our Order Desk platform, and all requested Order information must be provided for Order to be processed. You are responsible for the accuracy of all Order information you submit. CustomHappy is not responsible for delays in processing or fulfilling Orders caused by incomplete or incorrect Order information.
- CustomHappy will not accept Orders without valid payment information or receipt of payment from you as otherwise set forth herein. Orders are not cancellable or refundable (except as set forth below) once accepted by the Vendor for production (indicated as “In Production” by the Services).
iii. You are responsible for ensuring that the quality of each image submitted meets the requirements provided in the documentation for the Services provided on the site. CustomHappy will not be responsible for the print quality of Products produced using images that do not meet these requirements, and such Products will not be eligible for replacement subject to Section 3(d).
- c) Factories
CustomHappy does not manufacture blanks. All blank production is performed by independent factories who, (i) we regularly review to ensure that their performance meets user expectations, and (ii) guarantee to make blanks so as to keep the prices displayed when the Order is placed. We work with factories to ensure that we have sufficient stock, so orders are produced and shipped as quickly as possible, and estimated timing for most Orders is provided by the Services when the Order is placed, but these are estimates only, and CustomHappy makes no guarantees respecting factories performance. Note that Orders placed in November and December often take longer than the provided estimates to produce due to seasonal demand. While we constantly review factories and work with them to ensure that they meet user expectations, all factories are independent, and we are not responsible for their quality or performance.
- d) Returns
CustomHappy will work with you to address any issues related to Products, but will only be responsible for returns or refusal of Products if such Products (A) do not conform to the Product specifications published in the Services when ordered, or (B) have clear manufacturing defects not caused by incorrect submission of the image to the Services (i.e., missing pages in a calendar). In such instances, CustomHappy will use commercially reasonable efforts to work with the Vendor to promptly reproduce the affected Product. You must inform CustomHappy of the issue within three (3) days of delivery of the allegedly defective Product and provide reasonable evidence of the defect.
CustomHappy is not responsible for Products that are lost, damaged, or delayed in transit. CustomHappy will work with you to address problems with shipping suppliers. For certain Orders, insured shipping options may be available upon checkout.
- ACCOUNTS AND SECURITY
- a) To use the Services, you must create an account (an “Account”). When you create or update an Account, you must provide Personal Data (as defined in the Privacy Policy) that lets us contact you and fulfil Orders, and when you place an Order we collect financial details such as your bank account number and/or credit card number that allow us or our third party service providers to process payments, all of which we may store and use as set forth in these Terms and the Privacy Policy. Some of your Account Information, such as your username, may be listed on the Services where it is accessible to users of the Services and to the public generally (for example, if we publish Feedback). You agree that all information you provide to CustomHappy for purposes of creating an Account will be true, accurate, current and complete, and that you will promptly update your Account information so that it remains current for so long as you use the Services. You agree that we may take steps to verify the accuracy of Account information you provide. You agree to comply with all applicable laws with respect to your use of the Services.
- b) In order to keep your Account secure, you agree not to share your password or log-in credentials with any other person who is not authorized to use your Account. Your password and/or log-in credentials protect your Account, and you are solely responsible for keeping such information confidential and secure. You understand that you are responsible for any use of your username and password on the Services. We cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to safeguard your password. If your username or password is lost or stolen, or if you believe there has been unauthorized access to your Account by third parties, please notify us immediately and change your password as soon as possible.
- c) You may close your Account at any time by going to the “My Account” or equivalent page in the Services. Any open Orders will not be affected and you will remain responsible for all your obligations under these Terms with respect to such Orders until they are completed.
- d) Data Protection Addendum: To the extent that CustomHappy processes any Personal Information (as defined in the DPA) contained in User Content that is subject to the GDPR (as defined in the DPA), on your behalf, in the provision of the Service, the terms of the data processing addendum at https://help.CustomHappy.com/knowledge/signing-a-data-protection-agreement-dpa- ("DPA"), which are hereby incorporated by reference, shall apply and the parties agree to comply with such terms.

- You may place occasional direct Orders (i.e., for in-stock inventory, trade shows, or any other situation where you will not be ordering individual Products through the Services) by contacting CustomHappy Customer Service and requesting a manual order form. Once payment in full has been received, CustomHappy will submit the order to a Vendor for production.

- If you meet CustomHappy’s credit requirements (at CustomHappy’s sole discretion), which may require a personal guarantee of payment from an individual associated with the entity entering into the Terms, you may place orders with CustomHappy for immediate processing and submission to Vendors (“On-Account Orders''). If you are interested in On-Account Ordering privileges, please email us at sales@CustomHappy.com.
- CustomHappy will issue weekly invoices for On-Account Orders, detailing the Orders accepted for production in the period since the last invoice was issued, and such invoices will be due in full upon receipt. The Invoices will include the shipping charges and any other required fees (I.e., customs, VAT) related to the On-Account Orders included in such invoice. In addition to any applicable late fees as set forth in Section 7(d), CustomHappy may, without further notice to you, suspend your access to the Services if payment for any invoice for On-Account Orders is not received by five (5) days following the due date.
- c) Other Charges
Shipping charges (and any customs or related fees) plus VAT or any applicable sales taxes related to an Order are added to each Order when invoiced, and are the responsibility of the user. The full amount of all such charges for an Order must be received by CustomHappy prior to accepting the Order for production (except for On-Account Orders).
- d) Late Payment
CustomHappy may charge interest of 1.5% per month (or the greatest amount allowable by law, if less), calculated daily, for any invoiced amounts not received when due.

CustomHappy reserves the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to (i) suspend or terminate a Partner’s account at any time for any reason or (ii) invalidate any store as the result of the use of an account to make orders by or on behalf of a third party aggregator, group, organization, or business entity or any actual or suspected fraudulent or dishonest activity (including without limitation, the use of any system, macro, script, or bot to manipulate the Program). Reasons for account suspension or termination or benefit invalidation may include, without limitation, disorderly personal conduct at a CustomHappy event which actually or potentially harms CustomHappy, its affiliates and subsidiaries, and its and their directors, officers, employees, or any third party, violations of law, or any other activity not in keeping with the letter and/or spirit of these POD Program Terms, as interpreted by us in our sole and absolute discretion.

Name, address, email and phone number changes can be made within your CustomHappy account or by contacting Customer Support.
- h) Miscellaneous. Any disputes related to these POD Program Terms and the subject matter herein will be resolved pursuant to the arbitration agreement set forth in the Terms. If any provision of these POD Program Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of the Terms will remain enforceable and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of these POD Program Terms on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion. You may not assign or transfer these POD Program Terms, or its rights or obligations herein, in whole or in part without the written consent of CustomHappy.

If you are a copyright owner and believe a user of the Services is infringing your copyright or the copyright of any third party, please notify our designated copyright agent in writing at the following address: Attn: Sharon Zajackowski c/o CustomHappy, Inc. d/b/a CustomHappy, 7900 N Radcliffe St, Bldg 102A, Bristol, PA 19007, or via email to customhappystore@gmail.com.
- b) Each notification must include the following information: (i) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed, (ii) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works, (iii) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed, or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit CustomHappy to locate the material, (iv) information reasonably sufficient to permit CustomHappy to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, email address, (v) a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law, and (vi) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- c) We may remove User Generated Content and other content on the Services alleged to be infringing and to terminate the right to use the Services by any user who infringes the intellectual property rights of another person or entity, in each case without prior notice and at our sole discretion.
- JURISDICTION, GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
- a) These Terms, for all purposes, will be governed and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws provisions that would require a different result.
- b) Any dispute that may not be brought in small claims court will be resolved by binding and confidential arbitration conducted in the English language, in Bristol, Pennsylvania before one commercial arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes and governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules and Procedures”).
- YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY FOR ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THESE TERMS EXCEPT FOR MATTERS THAT MAY BE TAKEN TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. YOU ARE ENTITLED TO A FAIR HEARING, BUT THE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. ARBITRATOR DECISIONS ARE AS ENFORCEABLE AS ANY COURT ORDER AND ARE SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT.
- ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF.
iii. The arbitration award will be final and binding upon the parties without appeal or review except as permitted by State of Pennsylvania law or United States federal law. Each party will bear its own costs with respect to the arbitration procedure.
- Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, and (ii) claims of (A) defamation, (B) violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, or (C) infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s intellectual property rights, may be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The parties agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts for such purpose. A request for equitable relief will not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate.
- c) With the exception of Section 15(b)(i), if any part of Section 15(b) is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason then the balance of Section 15(b) will remain in effect. If, however, Section 15(b) is found to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, or we receive a valid opt-out notice from you pursuant to Section 15(b)(iii), then Section 15(b) will be null and void, neither party will be entitled to arbitration, and any claims relating to the Terms or Services will be exclusively brought in a state or federal court located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
