Release We provide information through the Vigo Website for your information and enjoyment. Your use of the Vigo Website is strictly voluntary. Because some of the information in the Vigo Website may relate to modifications to your diet, you agree to use your good judgment and reasonable care prior to making any changes to your lifestyle. By using the Vigo Website, you assume the risks associated with the activities in which you will be participating. Such risks may include, but are not limited to, the risk of physical injury, allergic reaction, or other harm. You, and you alone, are solely responsible for taking proper care to limit your risk. You knowingly and voluntarily do hereby indemnify, release, acquit, waive, forever discharge, and covenant not to sue Vigo, its employees, agents, any related affiliate and/or subsidiary entities from and against any and all liabilities, costs and expenses (including without limitations, any reasonable fees and expenses of its attorneys and consultants) relating to or arising out of any claims, demands or causes of action of every kind and character (including, without limitation, personal injury and property damage claims) as a result of the information and materials offered by Vigo through the Vigo Website. Limitation of Liability Under no circumstances shall Vigo or its employees, directors, officers, or agents be liable for any direct or indirect losses or damages arising out of or in connection with your use of or inability to use the Vigo website. This is a comprehensive limitation of liability that applies to all losses and damages of any kind (whether general, special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or otherwise, including, without limitation, loss of data, income or profits), whether in contract or tort, even if Vigo has been advised of or should have known of the possibility of such damages. Each provision of these terms & conditions that provides for a limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, or exclusion of damages is to allocate the risks under the agreement between you and Vigo. This allocation is an essential element of the basis of the bargain between you and Vigo. The limitations in this section will apply even if any limited remedy fails of its essential purpose(s).

You agree that a printed version of these Terms & Conditions and/or any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms & Conditions to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.

Miscellaneous These Terms & Conditions, including policies and information linked from or incorporated herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Vigo with respect to the Vigo Website and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, agreements, and proposals with respect to the Vigo Website.

Our customer service representatives are available to answer your questions and assist you with orders from Monday - Friday from 9:00am - 4:00 pm EST, excluding holidays. We accept most major credit cards for payment. We accept payments by check but your order will not be shipped until the check has cleared. If you have any problems using your credit card to complete an order, please call our customer service department and we'll be happy to assist you. Where We Deliver We offer delivery to the contiguous United States. We are unable to offer standard delivery to P.O. boxes. We are unable to deliver to APO/FPO addresses. Hawaii, Alaska, and P.O. Boxes have an additional shipping charge. If you are looking to place an order to Alaska, Hawaii, a P.O. Box, or an address outside of the United States, please contact our customer service department for further details and assistance with your order. Shipping to Apartments, Condo's or Gated Communities If we are shipping to an apartment building or condo, the shipping carrier may not leave the package outside of your door. If you have a doorman or reception that typically receives packages the shipping carrier may leave the package with them. We cannot be responsible for a package if it is delivered to an apartment or condo and then not left at the door because nobody is home to receive the order. Some orders may require a signature, and someone must be home to receive the shipment. If we are shipping to a gated community, you must make sure that someone is available to open the gate when the shipping carrier arrives, as packages will not be left at the front gate. We cannot be responsible for packages that are not left at a gated home because nobody is at the residence when the delivery is made. Some orders may require a signature, and someone must be home to receive the shipment. Signature Release or Signature Required Although your package may be sent without signature required, the decision to leave the package or not is at the sole discretion of the shipping carrier's delivery driver. If your area is deemed to be a high-crime or unsafe area, the driver may not leave the package. If they are delivering to an apartment or condo that does not have a receiving area for packages, the carrier's delivery driver also may not leave the package outside of your door. We cannot be responsible for packages that are not left due to circumstances like those described above. Please take care in having orders delivered to an address where you know someone will be home. Shipping Options Packages are shipped using standard UPS or USPS. Expedited services are available, however they are at an additional charge to the customer. Please contact our customer service department if you need other forms of shipping. Out-of-Stock Items We regularly update stock quantities on our site but due to production runs and purchasing trends we may run out of stock of an item. If you place your order and we find that we cannot provide the items in a timely manner we will contact you via phone or email and offer to send the item when stock is replenished, substitute your item, or refund your money. If we are unable to contact you within two to three business days we will refund your money. Combating Fraud and Theft We take a very active approach to combating fraud and theft, both with orders placed for our products and keeping your information safe and secure. It is a violation of State and Federal law to place orders under a false name or with an invalid or stolen credit card. We will take all steps possible to prosecute all people placing fraudulent orders to the fullest extent of the law possible. We actively work with the U.S. Secret Service, the FBI, and local law enforcement to prosecute anyone committing fraud online. If we deem any order as a potential for fraud, we may require additional information to confirm the validity of your order, including a picture of the credit card used along with a valid government issued identification. We take equal steps to ensure that when you order with us your information is protected and secure. We employ advanced encryption methods and use SSL technology to ensure that any information you submit to us is safe and secure. We also work with independent third party companies that monitor our website daily and notify us of any potential vulnerability that a hacker could exploit, which, if found, we then immediately correct. Order Cancellation / Modification We will honor all order cancelation and modification requests as much as possible. However, we do pack many orders a day, and if your order has already been packed it may be impossible to cancel or modify it simply because it can be one box out of hundreds shipping out and we might not be able to find it. During November and December simply due to the sheer volume of holiday orders, we are not able to cancel or modify orders once they are placed. Return Policy We cannot accept returns of any soft boxed food items. If you are looking to make a return you must contact us within 2 business days of receiving the product to request a return. Any returned merchandise can only be accepted if it is in perfect resalable condition. Note that there will be a 5% or $5 restocking fee, whichever is greater. Defective or Damaged Merchandise We take all measures possible to assure your order is received intact and in proper condition. In the event that you receive a defective or damaged product, please contact us immediately after receiving your order. Please do not throw anything out or discard any items, as we may require the best by date or other codes from the package. To help us resolve any defective or damaged merchandise we may ask you to take a picture of the item and then email it to customer service or possibly send the package back to us. Depending on the specific issue, we may choose to offer a replacement product, a store credit, a credit to your order, or by any other means we feel appropriate. Pricing Changes Our products are subject to availability, weather, and seasonal variations. We reserve the right to make changes to our pricing to reflect changes in market supply. We pledge to make the customer aware of any changes as soon as it is possible.
