B. Empower Brands' Guarantee
All of Empower Brands' products are covered by a Money Back Guarantee (please see specific product's instruction book or website for its guarantee). If you are not 100% satisfied with your product, return the product pursuant to the terms of the instruction book or website . Proof of purchase is required. Refunds will include the purchase price, less processing and handling. See Return Policy below for return details.

C. Product and Service Descriptions, Price and Other Information.
We have taken reasonable precautions to ensure that all product descriptions, prices and other information shown on our websites, infomercials and social media are correct and fairly described. However, when ordering products or services through our websites, infomercials and social media please note that:

   • Empower Brands reserves the right to not accept any orders if there is a material error in the description of the product or service, or if the price advertised is incorrect;
   • Empower Brands reserves the right to refuse or discontinue the supply of any product or service to any customer, or change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of our websites at any time in our sole and absolute discretion;
   • All prices are displayed in United States Dollars unless expressly indicated otherwise;
   • Packaging and contents may vary from that shown on our websites;
   • Any weights, dimensions, and capacities shown on our websites are approximate only;
   • When you place an order, we estimate the tax applicable to your order and include that estimate in the total for your convenience (the final tax amount will be based on the then-current rate as established by the taxing authority, charged to your payment card, and reflected in the order confirmation and package invoice we provide to you); and
   • All items are subject to availability and we will inform you as soon as reasonably possible if any product or service you ordered is not available and whether we may offer you an alternative of equal or higher quality and value.

Please also note that we may be required to change the terms of any products, goods or services that we offer and/or you purchase. This includes without limitation changes to prices, taxes, shipping and handling amounts, specifications, delivery times, and/or package contents. We will provide you with prior notice of any changes, by posting a notice on our websites, sending an e-mail to you at the address you provided at the time of purchase, or by including a notice in any products you receive on an automatic recurring or subscription basis. Empower Brands will not incur any obligation as a result of such change. By continuing to accept products, goods and/or services after we have notified you of a change to any terms, you will be deemed to have accepted the change.

Once an order has been placed, there is a limited period in which you can cancel your order. Please submit cancellations via phone 973-287-5100 M-F 9a-8p, Sat & Sun 9a-5p ET. Cancellation requests via email are accepted but we cannot guarantee the order can be cancelled prior to shipping. You may email empowercustomerservice@spectrumbrands.com. Cancellations must contain the following: First name, last name, order number, and e-mail address and Subject line "Cancel Order". This information must be identical to the information originally submitted on your order. Every effort will be made to accommodate the cancellation of your order, provided your order has not been processed. Once the order has been processed, we cannot take cancellation requests. In the event that a cancellation was submitted after the order has been processed and shipped, you will need to follow the procedures listed in the Returns Policy section.

D. Order Processing & Cancellation.
Empower Brands reserves the right to refuse or cancel any order prior to delivery. Some situations that may result in your order being cancelled include system or typographical errors, fairness among customers where supplies are limited, or problems identified by our credit or fraud departments. We also may require additional verification or information before accepting an order. We will contact you if additional information is required to accept an order. If the order is cancelled after we have processed the payment but prior to delivery, we will refund your payment.
All purchases are subject to applicable shipping and handling, and sales and/or other taxes, which will be applied to your order total. Sales and/or other taxes are calculated based on the shipping address provided.

E. Taxes.
For purchases where sales tax is applicable, the estimated tax is displayed on the checkout page prior to confirming the purchase. The actual tax collected may differ once the order is finalized. We use commercially reasonable efforts to calculate and remit the correct amount of tax required on each taxable purchase, but we do not guarantee the accuracy of the amount of the tax represented as owed. Minor errors may occur owing to the inability to accurately track multiple taxing districts, state and local "tax holidays," and timing of rate changes or the application of certain taxes to categories of items we sell. As a result of any error, we may over collect or under collect your tax. When you purchase an Empower Brands item, we collect and remit taxes required on your purchase. You hereby waive your right to claim that the tax collected on any purchase is incorrect in any respect and you agree to hold us, our officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, harmless from and against any claim, action, demand, loss, suit, or damages (including attorneys' fees) made or incurred as a result of our error in calculating the taxes you owe for your purchases. If you purchase any Empower Brands items on third party platforms, such as a Retailer, those third parties may be responsible for collecting and remitting applicable taxes to the taxing authorities.

F. Replacement Guarantee Policy (Purchases as of February 18, 2022).
Our products, when purchased from Empower Brands or an authorized retailer, include a 1 year replacement guarantee if your product or component part does not perform as expected. The guarantee extends only to the original purchaser and is not transferable. If you experience an issue with one of our products within 1 year of purchase, return it, or the component part for replacement for a replacement with a functionally equivalent new product or part. The original proof of purchase is required and must be provided at the time of replacement request. You are responsible to pay to return the unit to us. In the event a replacement unit is issued, the guarantee coverage ends six (6) months following the receipt date of the replacement unit or the remainder of the existing guarantee, whichever is later. Empower Brands reserves the right to replace the unit with one of equal or greater value. Contact Customer Service for assistance.

Any product warranty under this Agreement shall not be valid where it is contrary to U.S. and other applicable laws, or where the warranty would be prohibited under any economic sanctions, export control laws, embargoes, or other restrictive trade measures enforced by the United States or other applicable jurisdictions. This includes, without limitation, any warranty claims implicating parties from, or otherwise located in, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the disputed Crimea region.


G. Return Policy.
To return the product, a return merchandise authorization number is required. If purchased directly from Empower Brands, the order number is the return authorization number. The order number can be found at www.customerstatus.com. If product was purchased from an authorized retailer, first contact the retailer and ask about returning the purchase. If the retailer indicates that the product should be returned to Empower Brands, use "RETAIL" as your return authorization number. Include a copy of the Proof of Purchase. Replacements or refunds will not be issued without proof of purchase.

Pack the product carefully. Include a note inside the box with your name, address, phone number, email, reason for return and if you are requesting a refund or replacement. To avoid delay, place the note inside the box on top of the product/packaging. Write the return authorization number on the outside of the box. Send the package using a method that provides a tracking number (FedEx, USPS or UPS). Please retain a copy of the tracking number so that you may track progress. Empower Brands is not responsible for processing return requests if there is no proof the product was delivered to us, or lost packages or products shipped to us in error.

Empower Brands is a victim of this problem and suffers from the illegal stealing, manufacturing, importing and selling of counterfeit Empower Brands products.
