We will respond to allegations of copyright violations in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”). The DMCA provides a process for a copyright owner to give notification to an online service provider concerning alleged copyright infringement. When a valid DMCA notification is received, the service provider responds under this process by taking down the offending content. On taking down content under the DMCA, we will take reasonable steps to contact the owner of the removed content so that a counter-notification may be filed. On receiving a valid counter-notification, we generally restore the content in question, unless we receive notice from the notification provider that a legal action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in the infringing activity.

For example, your purchase of certain CBC merchandize or products, including, but not limited to Glen Helen products, may automatically direct you to and be conducted on a third party site hosted and operated by Google. CBC is not responsible for, and you agree that CBC will have no liability to you for, the availability, content or performance of any portion of the Internet including other websites to which the Website may be linked or from which an CBC website may be accessed. The appearance of any link on the Website in no way constitutes an endorsement by CBC of any third-party products or services.

Disclaimers & Liability

You understand and agree that the Website and all material contained or made available on or through it are provided and made available solely “AS IS”, “AS AVAILABLE”, “WITH ALL FAULTS” and without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, without limitation, warranties of title or the implied warranties of merchantability, non-infringement or fitness for a particular purpose or those arising by statute or otherwise at law or from a course of dealing or usage of trade. Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. You many have other rights which vary by jurisdiction. When the implied warranties are not allowed to be excluded in their entirety, you agree that they will be limited to the greatest extent and shortest duration permitted by law.

You agree that CBC and its affiliates, subsidiaries, licensors and assigns, and each of their respective employees, officers, agents and directors (collectively, the “Released Parties”), are not liable to you for damages of any kind, whether based in tort, contract, strict liability or otherwise, including, without limitation, any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages arising or resulting in any way from, or in connection with, the Website, and any other CBC website, the material and features posted and made available on any CBC website, or any errors or omissions in the technical operation of the websites and any materials posted or made available on any CBC website, even if the Released Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages, whether caused in whole or in part by negligence, acts of God, telecommunications failure, theft or destruction of, or unauthorized access to any CBC website or any related information or programs. Notwithstanding any other provision in these Terms of Use, in no event and under no circumstances will the Released Parties, or any of them, be liable to you for any reason or any cause of action whatsoever in an amount greater than Ten United States Dollars ($10.00). Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, or have legislation which restricts the limitation or exclusion of liability, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
