Only valid offer codes provided or promoted by Oelo will be honored at checkout.  Codes supplied or promoted by third parties unauthorized by Oelo (including any unauthorized third party websites) will not be considered valid. Each offer code promoted by Oelo is nontransferable and valid for single use on an item (or items) of merchandise as determined by Oelo. Offer codes may not be combined and may not be used in conjunction with the Oelo Referral Program in which customers are limited to the use of a single offer code per order. Offer codes cannot be used towards purchase of nonbranded merchandise, packaging, or applicable taxes. For online purchases, the code must be entered in the “offer code” field at checkout. Offer codes are not valid in showrooms or stores and are valid online only. Oelo is not responsible for lost, stolen, or corrupted codes or any unauthorized use of codes.  Offer codes cannot be redeemed for cash or any cash equivalent; no substitutions or credits allowed. The dollar value of any offer code will not be refunded or credited back if any or all of the merchandise is returned. Expiry dates may apply to each offer code. Offer codes are void if copied, transferred, sold, exchanged, or expired and where prohibited. Requests not complying with all offer code requirements will not be honored.

Spokespeople

From time to time, Oelo may also engage spokespeople, influencers, bloggers, or other individuals or entities who have been compensated or incentivized to speak on behalf of the brand. When you receive an offer code via a third-party source, such as a television or radio show host, please note that such individuals may have been compensated by Oelo for their statements.

XII. Digital Millennium Copyright Act

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials posted on the Site infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send Oelo a “Notification of Claimed Infringement” requesting that the material be removed or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information:

        • A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the works that have been allegedly infringed.
        • Identification of the copyrighted work alleged to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works).
        • Identification of the specific material alleged to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity and information reasonably sufficient to allow Oelo to locate the material on the Site.
        • Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address (if available).
        • 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.
        • A statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send Oelo a counter-notice.

Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/ for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Site should be sent to 3842 Redman Dr., Fort Collins, CO 80524 or [email protected].
