TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL OTHER WARRANTIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, DURABILITY AND NON-INFRINGEMENT) ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. ALL SITES, CONTENT, AND THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SITES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITH ALL FAULTS. NEITHER BLACKHAWK NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATED COMPANIES, NOR ANY OF THEIR LICENSEES, SUPPLIERS, FULFILLERS, OWNERS AND OPERATORS OF THIRD-PARTY PORTALS OR MERCHANTS MAKES ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION WITH RESPECT TO THE QUALITY, ACCURACY, OR AVAILABILITY OF ANY SITES.

Furthermore, you agree to refrain from using the services offered through the Site, including ordering any Blackhawk Products, in any manner that would cause damage to the public reputation of Blackhawk, its affiliated companies, and their employees, shareholders, board members, Merchants, or third parties for which Blackhawk provides services. In the event that you use or publicly display any products ordered through the Site, including by display on the Internet, in order to intentionally bring harm to Blackhawk or any of its affiliated companies or their employees, or shareholders, or board members, or to owners or operators of Third-Party Portals, or Merchants, Blackhawk reserves the right to demand the immediate return of the Blackhawk Product(s) ordered from a Site, to invalidate, without refund, the value of any gift card included in such Blackhawk Products, and to pursue any and all further remedies available to Blackhawk and its affiliated companies under the law.

Blackhawk makes no representation that the Contents are appropriate or will be available for use in other locations. If you use a Site from outside the United States of America, you are entirely responsible for compliance with applicable local laws, including but not limited to the export and import regulations of other countries in relation to the Content and the third party content. Unless otherwise explicitly stated, all marketing or promotional materials found on a Site are solely directed to individuals, companies or other entities located in the United States. You and Blackhawk further agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of the Alameda County Superior Court and the United States District Court for the Northern District of California with respect to any matters relating to the services, the use of a Site and its Contents, or any transactions arising therefrom. Any action brought by you with respect to anything related to a Site must be brought, if at all, within one (1) year from the accrual of such cause of action. A printed version of these Terms of Service will be admissible in judicial and administrative proceedings based upon or related to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.

All costs and taxes are quoted in U.S. dollars. You must pay all applicable taxes on purchases made on the Site. We may in our sole discretion add, delete or change some or all of the prices of our products and services at any time without notice, other than as set forth on the relevant Site.

11. Gift Card Activation.

Plastic Gift Cards. Generally, with the exception of VISA Cards, plastic gift cards that ship from GiftCardMall.com are shipped "active", which means that recipients are not required to activate their gift cards prior to using. For VISA Cards, plastic gift cards will be shipped "inactive" and must be activated before they can be used. The activation code will be sent to the address provided by the purchaser at the time of purchase. The purchaser can activate the card or can provide the activation code to their recipient. Recipients can also activate their gift card by calling 1-866-357-7391 and entering the requested information or as otherwise instructed by us.

Electronic gift cards. Electronic gift cards do not require activation by customers. Recipients of electronic gift cards will click on a link in their e-mail to retrieve their activated electronic gift cards.

13. Miscellaneous.

For purposes of these Terms, “you” and “your” shall mean you and “we”, “us,” and “our” means Blackhawk and, if applicable, those third parties acting on behalf of Blackhawk from time to time. Title and risk of loss for products purchased by you through a Site passes to you upon delivery of the Blackhawk Products to you or your designated recipient. We may assign our rights and responsibilities hereunder without notice to you. If any of these Terms are held invalid or unenforceable, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision most closely matching the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the Terms will continue in effect. We reserve the right to amend or modify these Terms or impose new conditions at any time. Such amendments and modifications will be effective immediately upon giving you notice by any means including, but not limited to, posting on the applicable Site. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all other communications, written or oral, with regard to any Site.

The failure of Blackhawk to enforce any right or provision in these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by Blackhawk in writing. Your use of a Site, however, is subject to the additional disclaimers and caveats that may appear throughout such Site.
