Here's the deal:
We run this site so that people like you (and people you like) can use it for personal entertainment, information, education, communication, and cyber gratification. So go ahead and browse around all you like. You can even download stuff from the site but only for non-commercial, personal use. If you do, though, don't fool around with the copyright and other notices all over the stuff. They're there for a really good reason. And don't even think about distributing, modifying, transmitting, reusing, re-posting, or anything else un cool with any of the stuff, including the text, images, audio, and video, for public or commercial purposes unless we give you written permission. And we might just do that if you ask nicely!

If you visit our site, you're also legally obligated to [read: stuck with] the terms and conditions listed below and any other law or regulation that applies to the site, the Internet, the World Wide Web, or Arizona. You shouldn't access or browse the site if you have any problem with that, because once you start, there's no turning back -- you are bound by [read: stuck with] the terms and conditions.

So here's the scoop on our Top Ten Rules for Cyber surfers who hang out on our site:

1. For everyone's sake, just assume that everything on the site is copyrighted unless we say it's not. So you can't use the stuff except how we say you can on this page or anywhere else on the site without our written permission.



2. While we try to include accurate stuff on the site, we're not promising you its accurate. In fact, we're not promising you anything except fun and entertainment. So if you use stuff on the site, you're using it at your own risk. Don't call us if there's a problem because we assume no liability or responsibility for errors or omissions on the site.



3. We and anybody else who helped us create, produce, or deliver the site are not liable for any damages you suffer when you use it. In particular, the lawyers want you to know that our disclaimer includes "DIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF YOUR ACCESS TO, OR USE OF, THE SITE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, EVERYTHING ON THE SITE IS PROVIDED TO YOU 'AS IS' WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON INFRINGEMENT. PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. CHECK YOUR LOCAL LAWS FOR ANY RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS REGARDING THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. " Ugh! What a mouthful from the mouthpieces. We put all of that in quotes because we couldn't figure out any other way to say it that the lawyers would accept. But here's the bottom line -- we're not responsible if you're browsing around and the site damages you or your computer or infects it with any nasty viruses. We sure hope that doesn't happen, but if it does, don't call us.



4. If you don't want the world to know something, don't post in on the site in any bulletin board or public area of the site. That's because anything you disclose in those areas belong to everyone else. That's right - everyone! So anyone can do anything they want with the stuff you post. They can reproduce it, disclose it, transmit it, publish it, broadcast it, and post it someplace else. They can even send it to your mother (as soon as they find her address). Not only that, they can even use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques you post any way they want to, including, developing, manufacturing and marketing products or other stuff using the information you post. That being said, we still maintain a "Privacy Policy", and the stuff we mention in there is safe, especially your "real personal" information, such as Credit Card numbers, social security numbers, etc.. However, don't post those in the public areas, such as the message boards.



5. Pictures of people or places shown on the site are either our property or someone else's property we're using with their permission. No matter what, it's definitely not your property. You or any of your net-friends can't use it unless we said you could on this page or somewhere else on the site. And guess what -- we won't always say yes. So be careful, because unauthorized use may violate all sorts of nasty laws. Be smart, keep the stuff you download to yourself. If you want to use it to help your business, please let us know, and we will let you know what you can or cannot use.



6. There's also a lot of trademarks, logos, and service marks on the site that either we own or we're using with someone else's permission. So don't think you have any kind of license or right to use them, because you don't and we're not about to give you one. If you don't leave them alone and mess with our trademarks, logos and service marks on our site, we'll probably go ballistic, so will the companies that own the other trademarks, logos and service marks. That means that we're likely to sue you or to ask a prosecutor to come after you for messing around with our property or the property of others.



7. You'll probably notice we've linked our site to lots of others. While that's cool and all, it doesn't mean we've looked at all those sites, much less checked them out periodically to see what's going on. So don't blame us if some site you link to is bad or has stuff on it that offends you or your pets. Go ahead and click the link, but remember, you're doing it at your risk.



8. That brings us to what you do on our own site. While we occasionally listen in on chat groups, or look at the posting in our discussion groups or on our bulletin boards, we take no responsibility and assume no liability for the content of those locations or for any mistakes, defamation, libel, slander, omissions, falsehoods, obscenity, pornography, or profanity you might encounter when you visit such places on our site. And don't be stupid by posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, nasty, mean, or profane material or any material that law enforcement types may consider a criminal offense, get someone in court on a civil lawsuit, or for that matter violate any law -- anywhere, anytime. While we certainly respect your privacy, we have no choice but to fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court which might ask us who might have posted nasty stuff on our site.



9. Software that we use on this Site is protected by all sorts of patriotic U.S. laws. Because of that, you can't download or send the software to anyone in the vacation travel spots of Cuba, Libya, North Korea, Iran, Syria, or any other country where United States has embargoed goods; or (get this) to anyone on the United States Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals, the U.S. Commerce Department's Table of Deny Orders, or the FBI's Most Wanted Internet Creeps List (just kidding on the last one). As if that were not tough enough, if you live in or are a national of any of those lovely places, you're not even supposed to be reading this page, so beat it!



10. We're also allowed to change this page and anything else on the site any time we want to. That's because it's ours and we have the programmers who can do it. If we do change the page, then you're bound by [read: stuck with] those changes, too, whenever you visit our site.



11. We also reserve the right to refuse any customer's money for any reason at any time. The same payment form will be returned the day it is received. Basically if for some reason we feel that we no longer want your money, we can return it.



12. We reserves the right to increase or decrease the price of its items at any time without any prior notice to the customer. So if raw material goes up and costs us more, we will pass on the cost to you. But on a good note, if it goes down, we will also reduce our price. We figure if it goes one way or the other by a few percent, we will make some changes.
    
    All Customers and active members agree to surrender any and all rights over Perfect World Solutions after fourteen days of receiving any item purchased. After that time if you think that you can find a product similar to ours (but of course inferior) well that's great, but as far as your purchase, well, keep it, because we won't take it back without probably charging you a restocking fee. (What really is that anyway? Is that the fee that we pay the guy to put it back on the shelf? I have to ask around about that one).
    
    Now if for some reason before the seven days are up you want your money back, give us a call and we will issue you a return number. You put that on the package and send it back to us. When we get the product back we will issue you a full refund. But we want the product back in the same condition that we send it to you. Don't try and send us the inferior that you bought last week from some other company that ripped you off. We want the same product that we sent you. Don't call us and say, "Just kidding!" We might laugh, but probably not.



13. Warranty.
    
    Perfect World Solutions is so confident in our technology, that we WILL give you a 25 year warranty of the "effects" of our products. In other words, if you believe that your product is no longer "Imprinted", and you perform the strength and balance test with negative results, we will "re-imprint" your product for the next 25 years for free! Our Scientist tell us that this won't ever be an issue, that "theoretically" the imprintation will last forever, but we didn't like the work "theoretically" (you know how scientist talk). However, we know that the material that holds the imprinted devise may not last forever (such as the Velcro on the Bionic Band, the polypropylene may rip, etc.). For this we offer a 90 day limited warranty. If after that time, your Velcro stops working, or the material just wears out, we will offer to replace the band for a nominal fee.
    
    However, if you decide to take apart our product, because you just can't help yourself, and have to see what "makes it tick", well then, we will not replace it. But maybe we will sew it back up for you, at a nominal price. Just be honest when you call us. Don't tell us that your dog chewed it up with such precision that he "unstitched" it and the imprinted device just "fell out".
    
    Also, if your dog really does chew it up, well we reserve the right to charge you for another band, especially if he swallows the energy device. Just know that for the short time it's in your dogs system, he will be stronger than before! Oh, and once it comes out, please don't send it back to have us put into another band. Just put it on a chain and wear it around your neck. We really don't want it back!
    
    
14. Refund and Cancellations

Here at Perfect World Solutions we are confident in our product(s) and their abilities, however if for some reason you receive the product and are not completely satisfied within the first 10 days, we will be happy to give you a full refund. Just give us a call let us know that you are sending us back the product and we will issue you a "return number". Put this on the package and send it back. As soon as we receive the product we will issue you a full refund in same form of payment. In other words, if you paid by credit card, we will issue a credit to your card. If you sent us a check we will send one back to you. All refunds will be issued the next business day after we receive the product.

We believe in our products therefore we fully stand behind them!



15. Shipping
    
    In most cases we will ship your product within 24 hours of receiving payment by either UPS (United Parcel Service) or USPS (The United States Postal Service) with tracking numbers emailed to you for easy tracking. This means that if you purchase a Bionic Band or any of our products on the web site, with a credit card, we will ship your product the next day. However if you purchase a product and decide to send in a check, we will ship your product the day after we receive your check. However, this does not include weekend and holidays. We have been told its not nice to keep our employees working 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, our answer was, "Why not? We will pay them!" Our attorneys didn't find that too funny either..
    
    
16. If either of us wants to make something of it and wants to "sue" (a dirty word) then we have to follow these rules of engagement. (sort of like the Geneva Convention):
    
    This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
    
    To the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate Perfect World Solutions and/or its affiliates' intellectual property rights, Perfect World Solutions, and/or its affiliates may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the State of Arizona, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
    
    Any other disputes will be resolved as follows:
    
    If a dispute arises under this agreement, we agree to first try to resolve it with the help of a mutually agreed-upon mediator in Phoenix, Arizona. Any costs and fees other than attorney fees associated with the mediation will be shared equally by each of us.
    
    If it proves impossible to arrive at a mutually satisfactory solution through mediation, we agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration in Phoenix, Arizona, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitration may be entered in any court with jurisdiction to do so.

If this all sounds kind of mean and undiplomatic, you should have seen what the lawyers gave to us in the first place. We had to remind them that human torture and sacrifice was outlawed in the United States. Boy, did they look disappointed!
