Because we do not control the User-Generated Content posted on or through this Website, we cannot and do not warrant or guarantee the truthfulness, integrity, suitability, or quality of that User-Generated Content. You also agree and understand that by accessing this Website, you may encounter User-Generated Content that you may consider to be objectionable.

  • any User-Generated Content that contains the image, name or likeness of anyone other than yourself, unless (i) that person is at least eighteen years old and you have first obtained his/her express permission or (ii) that person is under eighteen years old but you are his/her parent or legal guardian;
  • any request for or solicitation of any personal or private information from any individual;

Your statutory rights as a consumer, if any, are not affected by these provisions, and we do not seek to exclude or limit liability for fraudulent misrepresentation.

Exclusion of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws we, on behalf of our employees, agents, suppliers, and contractors, exclude AND DISCLAIM liability for any losses and expenses of whatever nature and howsoever arising including, without limitation, any direct, indirect, special, punitive, or consequential damages, loss of use, loss of data, loss caused by a virus, loss of income or profit, loss of or damage to property, claims of third parties, or other losses of any kind or character, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages or losses, arising out of or in connection with the use of this website or any website with which it is linked.

THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY APPLIES WHETHER THE ALLEGED LIABILITY IS BASED ON CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER BASIS.

These Terms of Use give you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from country to country, and jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, or certain kinds of limitations or exclusions of liability, so the limitations & exclusions set out in these Terms of Use may not apply to you.

The limitations and exclusions set out in these Terms of Use are inapplicable within the State of New Jersey to the extent they disclaim liability for our own negligent, willful, or intentional conduct, or violation of any clearly established duty owed by OtterBox to exercise reasonable care in preventing the unlawful acts of others.

You are responsible for providing and maintaining all personal computer and communications equipment and Internet access accounts necessary to gain access to this Website.

In consideration of your use of the Website, you agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself.

Your account, including your username and password, are personal to you and may not be used by anyone else. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and username and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or username by you or by anyone else using your username and password, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to immediately inform us of any apparent breaches of security such as loss, theft or unauthorized disclosure or use of your username or password and contact OtterBox at (1-855-688-7269) and until we are so notified you will remain liable for any unauthorized use of your account.

You agree to use the Website in a manner consistent with any and all applicable rules and regulations. You agree not to upload or transmit through the Website any computer viruses, trojan horses, worms or anything else designed to interfere with, interrupt or disrupt the normal operating procedures of a computer.

OtterBox reserves all rights and remedies available to it.

You agree to indemnify, release and hold us harmless as well as our officers, directors, agents, representatives and employees from any claim, liability, loss, expense or demand, including legal fees, related to your violation of these Terms of Use or your access or use of this Website (including any information, materials, products or services available through this Website).

Your indemnification obligation does not apply in the State of New Jersey for any claim, liability, loss, expense or demand, including legal fees, arising out of our own negligence.

Modification and Discontinuation

We reserve the right at any time and from time to time to modify, edit, delete, suspend or discontinue, temporarily or permanently this Website (or any portion thereof) and/or the information, materials, products and/or services available through this Website (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that we shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any such modification, editing, deletion, suspension or discontinuance of this Website.

Entire Understanding

These Terms of Use (together with our Privacy Policy, which is expressly incorporated herein) contain the entire understanding between you and us with respect to use of this Website and no representation, statement, inducement oral or written, not contained herein shall bind any party to this agreement.

Severability and Non-Waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms of Use shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision nor of the right to enforce such provision, and a waiver by us of any right under these Terms of Use on any occasion will not in any way constitute a waiver of such right or any other right on any other occasion. In the event any provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be invalid, such invalidity will not affect the validity of the remaining portions of these Terms of Use, and the parties will substitute for the invalid provision a provision which most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid provision. These Terms of Use will apply in lieu of and notwithstanding any specific legend or statement associated with any particular document or information exchanged.

Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms of Use shall be subject to, governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Colorado in the United States of America, without regard to conflict of law principles. This Website is operated from the State of Colorado and is intended to be accessed only by persons in the United States and Canada. Access to, or use of, this Website or information, materials, products and/or services on this Website may be prohibited by law in certain countries or jurisdictions. You are responsible for compliance with any applicable laws of the country from which you are accessing this Website.

Dispute Resolution

We and you agree that any dispute or claim relating to any OtterBox product or any controversy or claim of whatever nature arising out of or relating to use of this Website will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, with some limited exceptions listed below.

Governing Law: The resolution of any disputes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of Colorado without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

Informal Dispute Resolution: Before filing a claim against OtterBox, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally. In the event of a dispute, you must notify OtterBox by sending a written statement that sets forth (i) your name, address, and contact information, (ii) the facts giving rise to the dispute, and (iii) the relief requested. You must notify OtterBox of a dispute by sending this information to legal@otterbox.com, ATTN: Notice of Dispute. If a dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after submission, you may commence arbitration.

Binding Arbitration: If you and OtterBox do not resolve any dispute by informal dispute resolution, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by binding arbitration. You are giving up the right to litigate all disputes in court before a judge or jury. All disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award. The rules governing arbitration are different than those in court. Arbitration does not involve a judge or jury and review is limited, but an arbitrator can award the same damages as a court.

Class Action Waiver: Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. You may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren't allowed under these Terms of Use. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.

Arbitration Procedure & Fees: Any arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location. In any arbitration OtterBox commences, OtterBox will pay all filing, AAA, and arbitrator’s fees and expenses. OtterBox will also pay all arbitration fees for claims up to $75,000. For claims involving more than $75,000, the AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Fees and expenses are not counted in determining how much a dispute involves. OtterBox will not seek its attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.

Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate: Neither the agreement to arbitrate nor the informal dispute resolution process applies to disputes relating to the enforcement or validity of your, OtterBox’s, or either of our licensors’ intellectual property rights. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. In addition, either you or OtterBox may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Larimer County, Colorado or any United States county where you live or work. You may litigate in small claims court whether or not you took part in the informal dispute resolution process. However, you specifically agree that any claims in small court are governed by these Terms of Use, including the Class Action Waiver section.

Severability: If the class action waiver in these Terms of Use is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, then it will not apply to those parts. Instead, those parts will be severed and proceed in a court of law, with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration. If any other provision of these Terms of Use is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be severed with the remainder of these Terms remaining in full force and effect.

Judicial Forum for Disputes: In the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you and OtterBox agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in state court in Larimer County, Colorado. Both you and OtterBox consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

Limitation on Claims: To the extent permitted by law, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of an OtterBox product must be filed in the appropriate forum within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose. If a claim or dispute is not filed within one year, it is permanently barred.
