Ploopy Corporation (henceforth referred to as “The Company”) is a business entity registered with Corporations Canada.
This is a legal agreement between you (meaning you as an individual if acting on your own behalf, or the company that you represent if you are acting on behalf of such company) and The Company. By placing an order or making a purchase of a product (“Product”) from The Company, you agree to these terms of sale (“Terms”) set out below, along with The Company’s Privacy Policy at https://ploopy.co/privacy-policy and Website Terms of Use at https://ploopy.co/terms-of-use. These Terms may be updated by The Company from time to time, and it is your responsibility to review these Terms each time you make a purchase from The Company.
1. ORDERING
1.1. These Terms shall apply to all orders for Product placed by you to The Company. You acknowledge that the information contained on The Company’s website may contain technical inaccuracies or typographical errors. The Company’s website, all content available on its website, and all related communications are provided on an “AS IS” basis. We make no representations or warranties as to the completeness, accuracy, adequacy or reliability of any information contained on The Company’s website.
1.2. To place an order, you must:
- provide up-to-date, complete and accurate registration information as requested by us, which may include your first and last name, institution name, mailing address, phone number and email address;
- provide up-to-date, complete and accurate credit card information for a credit card that is valid and legally registered to you, or other payment information reasonably acceptable to The Company and/or The Company’s payment processor; and
- be at all times in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and applicable law, including the requirement to be 18 years of age or older.
1.3. You specifically agree that The Company may rely on the accuracy of the information provided by you to The Company, and that The Company will have no liability whatsoever, whether to you or to any third party, for any claims or damages resulting from inaccurate information provided to The Company.
1.4. All Products are intended for end-user customers only. You may not purchase Products for resale, and we reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order, or to deny you any return rights, if we suspect you are doing so.
2. DELIVERY AND SHIPPING
2.1. All orders are subject to acceptance by The Company, and any rejection of an order shall be made in The Company’s sole discretion. If you have been charged for an order that is subsequently rejected by The Company, The Company will refund the amount of that order to you, by a method chosen by The Company in its sole and reasonable discretion.
2.2. The Company will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your delivery requirements; however, delivery is subject to availability of resources at the time of order placement. The Company shall therefore not be liable in any way for any delay or damage arising from The Company’s failure to meet your delivery requirements or any delivery dates.
2.3. All shipments shall be made FCA The Company’s facilities (Incoterms 2000). Risk of loss for products shall pass to you upon delivery to the carrier, and you are responsible for pursuing the carrier for any loss occurring in transit.
2.4. You are responsible for examining all shipments promptly upon receipt. If you discover any shortages or incorrect products in the shipment, you must notify The Company immediately. Please check the order carefully, as no claim for shortages or deficiencies will be accepted by The Company after five (5) days from delivery of the products.
3. PRICING AND PAYMENT
3.1. All prices are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise expressly stated in writing. Where you are making payment in a currency other than Canadian dollars, the currency exchange rate that applies is the one in effect at the time your payment is processed, not the one that was in effect on the date that you placed your order. The Company reserves the right to change its standard prices without notice.
3.2. Prices are exclusive of, and you will pay: (a) all applicable federal, state, provincial and local taxes (including all applicable sales, use, consumption, goods and service, value added, and withholding taxes), unless you have provided The Company with an appropriate tax exemption certificate or number, and (b) all fees and charges related to customs, duties and brokerage. The Company may charge sales tax for sales of Products. Any sales tax charged will be indicated during the checkout process.
3.3. At the time that you order the Product, you must provide up-to-date, complete and accurate credit card information for a credit card that is valid and legally registered to you, or other payment information reasonably acceptable to The Company and/or The Company’s payment processor. By ordering the Product, if paying by credit card, you authorize The Company to charge the credit card for the price of the Product upon shipment of such Product to you. If your order is a pre-order for Product that is not yet available, you may cancel such pre-order without penalty at any time up to the shipping date. The Company may utilize a payment processor to manage orders and payments. Your credit card statement may therefore reflect a third party name in relation to your order.
3.4. Where your credit card is rejected for any reason, you will be responsible for any fees and charges associated with such rejection, as well as interest on the amount owing. Interest will be the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, commencing on the date that your credit card was rejected. The Company may, in its sole discretion, delay shipment of, or cancel, your Product order where your credit card or other payment information is rejected.
4. RETURNS
4.1. Products may be returned to The Company within thirty (30) days of delivery for credit, if the Products are unused, in a new and intact condition, and in their original containers, subject to The Company’s return procedures. Shipping of all returns is your responsibility and at your sole expense. Please consult The Company for details about its return procedures. You acknowledge that this 30 day return policy is considered in satisfaction of applicable statutory “withdrawal rights” or “cooling off periods”, and you waive all such statutory rights.
5. TITLE, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND USE RESTRICTIONS
5.1. Title to any Products bought by you shall pass to you upon your full payment for such Products in accordance with Section 3.
5.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, title to software shall not pass to you, and you are hereby put on notice that your use of any The Company software supplied to you under these Terms is governed by and subject to the software license terms as may be provided to you with the software, including in The Company’s Product Agreement, as described below. Use of any third party software shall be governed by and subject to your agreeing to the terms of all applicable third party agreements and licenses respecting such third party software.
5.3. Your use and possession of the Product shall be subject to the terms and conditions of The Company’s Product Agreement, which is included as a clickwrap agreement with the Product, and is also available from The Company upon request. To the extent applicable, the terms and conditions of the Product Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by this reference.
6. CHANGES
6.1. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, you shall not be entitled to change or cancel any order that has previously been accepted by The Company without the prior written agreement of The Company.
7. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
7.1. Each party shall observe and comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, codes and regulations of governmental agencies (including import and export laws and regulations), including federal, provincial, state, municipal and local governing bodies, of any country having jurisdiction over its obligations hereunder. You agree to indemnify The Company from any loss, claims, liability or damages arising out of your failure to comply with such laws, ordinances, codes and regulations.
8. WARRANTY
8.1. The Company’s Product warranty is as set forth in The Company’s Product Agreement, which is included as a clickwrap agreement with the Product, and is also available from The Company upon request.

The Company disclaims all other representations, warranties and conditions, whether express or implied, including but not limited to any express or implied representations, warranties or conditions of merchantability, merchantable quality, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, non-infringement, or any other warranty or condition arising by statute, custom or usage of trade related to the products provided hereunder. Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties and conditions. To the extent permitted by law, any implied warranties or conditions relating to the Product to the extent that they cannot be excluded as set out above are limited to one (1) year from the date that the Product is delivered to you.
9. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
9.1. In no event will The Company be liable under these Terms for any damages other than your direct damages to the extent arising from The Company’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and in no event shall The Company’s aggregate liability exceed the amounts paid by you to The Company for the Product that gave rise to the claim. No claim may be brought against The Company, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, more than two (2) years after the Product was delivered.
9.2. EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED DIRECT DAMAGES SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION 8, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE OR OPPORTUNITY, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEN OR UNFORESEEN, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE COMPANY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
10. CANCELLATION AND TERMINATION
10.1. The Company may reject any orders upon written notice to you, and may also stop any Products in transit to you and suspend the delivery of Products to you without penalty, if: (a) you commit a material breach of this Agreement or the Product Agreement and fail to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of such breach, or (b) you become involved in any legal proceeding concerning your solvency, have a receiver or administrator appointed of any of your assets, cease or threaten to cease operations, or otherwise have a serious and reasonable doubt arise respecting your solvency.

11. MISCELLANEOUS
11.1. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to your ordering and purchase of the Product, and The Company’s sale and license of the Product to you, and supersedes all previous agreements relating to the subject matter hereof. These Terms may not be altered, amended, or modified except in a written instrument executed by a duly authorized officer of The Company. If any one or more of the provisions of these Terms is for any reason held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, any such provision shall be severable from these Terms. No waiver by either party of a breach or omission by the other party under these Terms shall be binding on the waiving party unless it is expressly made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The parties expressly agree that neither the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods nor the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act shall apply to these Terms or to the sale of the Product to you. These Terms, and all Product requirements, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario. It is the express will of the parties that these Terms and all related documents be drawn up in English. C’est la volonté expresse des parties que la présente convention ainsi que les documents qui s’y rattachent soient rédigés en anglais.
