10. Order Modification/Rejection. To the maximum extent permitted by law, YETI reserves the right to reject or modify any order we receive for any reason at any time before delivery, whether or not such order has been confirmed and/or your credit card has been charged, including the unavailability of products, an error in the price or the description of the products on this Site, cancellation or dishonouring of your payment or any error in the order placed by you. You will be notified of any rejection or changes to your order at the email address you provided at check out.

Resellers are defined as a company or an individual that purchases product with the intention of selling them rather than using them.
    
    
12. Delivery, Title and Loss. The Site may offer different delivery methods. You may be able to choose which delivery method you prefer in the online order form when completing your online purchase. Subject to you making payment, we will use reasonable endeavors to deliver the ordered products to the delivery address set out in your online order form.
    Delivery lead times vary. Please refer to information on the Site. Please note all delivery dates are estimates and are not a guarantee that the product will be delivered on the specified date. Delay in delivery does not relieve you from your obligation to accept delivery of and pay for the products. YETI will not be liable for any loss or expenses which you may incur as a result of any delay in the delivery of your order.
    
    The products will be deemed to have been delivered to you, and you will be deemed to have accepted delivery, if the delivery carrier’s tracking system states that delivery has occurred. If the delivery address is not attended, then the delivery carrier will follow its customary procedures for undelivered goods, which may include leaving a note requesting you to the pick-up the product or leaving the product at the delivery address. Subject to you making full payment, title and risk in the products will pass to you upon delivery or deemed delivery of the products.

14. Consumer Law. To the maximum extent permitted by law, and except for the limited warranties specified on our Site, we exclude all representations, warranties, terms, conditions and undertakings in respect of the products that we supply. However, our products come with statutory guarantees that cannot be excluded under Australian Consumer Law, and also other conditions, warranties or representations that are implied by law and which cannot be lawfully excluded (“Prescribed Terms”). To the maximum extent permitted by law, a representation, warranty or Prescribed Term will not apply to any fault or failure of the product if it has been caused by accidental or deliberate damage, neglect or misuse, whether by you or another person. Our liability in relation to any representation, warranty or Prescribed Terms or otherwise in connection with our products is, to the maximum extent permitted by law, and at our discretion, limited to the resupply of products or equivalent goods, the repair of the product or the payment to you of the cost of having the products repaired or supplied again. However, this does not exclude or restrict any rights or remedies that you may have in relation to a “major failure”, as that term is defined in the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth). If you wish to make a claim under our limited warranties specified on our Site, please follow the process in on our Site.
    
    
15. Limited Right to Use. The viewing, printing or downloading of any content, graphic, form or document from the Site grants you only a limited, nonexclusive license for use solely by you for your own personal use and not for republication, distribution, assignment, sublicense, sale, preparation of derivative works or other use. No part of any content, form or document may be reproduced in any form or incorporated into any information retrieval system, electronic or mechanical, other than for your personal use (but not for resale or redistribution). You agree not to download, display or use any YETI content located on the Site for use in any publications, on websites other than the Site for any commercial purpose, in connection with products or services that are not those of YETI, in any other manner that is likely to cause confusion among consumers, that disparages or discredits YETI and/or its licensors, that dilutes the strength of YETI, or that otherwise infringes YETI’s intellectual property rights.
    
    
16. Protection of Intellectual Property. If you believe that any product purchased on the Site or any materials accessible on or from the Site have been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please notify us at legal@yeti.com, and provide the following information ("Notice"):
    • Your physical or electronic signature.
    • Identification of the copyrighted work you believe to have been infringed or, if the claim involves multiple works on the Site, a representative list of such works.
    • Identification of the material or products you believe to be infringing in a sufficiently precise manner to allow us to locate that material.
    • Adequate information by which we can contact you (including your name, postal address, telephone number and, if available, e-mail address).
    • A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
    • A statement that the information in the written notice is accurate.
    • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
    Please note that this procedure is exclusively for notifying YETI that your copyrighted material has been infringed. Upon receipt of your notification, YETI will remove the infringing materials from the Site and may terminate a relationship with an allegedly offending customer but does not have the ability to collect or return allegedly infringing products.
    
    
17. Privacy Policy and Use of Information. Our Privacy Policy, as it may change from time to time, is a part of this Agreement. On certain areas of the Site, you may be given the ability to provide us with personal information. YETI reserves the right, and you authorize YETI, to collect, use and disclose all information regarding use of the Site by you and all information provided by you in any manner consistent with YETI’s Privacy Policy. Please read our Privacy Policy for more information about our collection, use and disclosure practices. The Privacy Policy also provides separate options for individuals to lodge complaints in relation to the Privacy Policy and your privacy.
    
    
18. Links to Other Web Sites. The Site contains links to other websites. YETI is not responsible for the content, accuracy or opinions express in such websites, and such websites are not investigated, monitored or checked for accuracy or completeness by YETI. Inclusion of any linked website on this Site does not imply approval or endorsement of the linked website by YETI. If you decide to leave the Site and access these third-party sites, you do so at your own risk.
    
    
19. Submissions. All suggestions, ideas, proposal, notes, concepts, content, artwork, product reviews and other information you may from time to time send to YETI (collectively, “Submissions”) shall be deemed and shall remain YETI’s sole property and shall not be subject to any obligation of confidence on YETI’s part. Without limiting the foregoing, YETI shall be deemed to own all known and hereafter existing rights of every kind and nature regarding the Submissions and shall be entitled to unrestricted use of the Submissions for any purpose, without compensation to the provider of the Submissions.
    
    Designs created using the text tools and images available through the product customisation service on the Site are in no way the exclusive property of the customers who assemble such designs. YETI retains the right to display such designs or offer them (or variations of such designs) to other customers. Furthermore, YETI provides no warranty that designs created using our text tools and images will not infringe or will not be subject to a claim of infringement in relation to, the trademark, copyright or other rights of any other person.
    
    YETI reserves the right to re-purpose submissions for YETI’s own marketing materials, including but not limited to: social media channels, website materials, advertisements, and print materials.
    
    
20. Custom Products. YETI values respect, tolerance and open dialogue, and we serve a diverse and varied customer base. YETI has the sole discretion to reject any order that we deem inappropriate for production, including those designs or text that we deem to: 
    
1. Contain obscene, vulgar or profane content, including hate speech or symbols, 
2. Contain explicit sexual content or innuendo, 
3. Encourage violence, hate or negative stereotypes against individuals or groups, 
4. Attack, harass or discriminate based on race, religion, ethnicity, gender, disability, national origin, sexual orientation or gender identity, 
5. Incite public outrage or inspire violence, 
6. Portray or promote irresponsible use of alcohol or other substances, or 
7. Libel or defame an individual or group. 
   
   

21. Starting with our first customised Ramblers in 2015, we’ve used our best efforts to avoid creating custom products with political affiliations or associations. Because the process we use to identify political affiliations and associations involves human judgment, we may inadvertently accept an order and mark a YETI product with a candidate’s name or campaign slogan simply because we weren’t familiar with it when the order was placed. If that happens, it should not be construed as YETI’s endorsement of a particular affiliation or association (unless, of course, we explicitly make a statement of endorsement). 
     
    YETI respects the intellectual property rights of others and we ask that you do the same. By purchasing any custom product on or through the Site, either on your behalf as an individual or on behalf of a company, you represent and warrant that your requested design does not violate anyone else’s rights, including copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, privacy or other rights. YETI may terminate the account of any customer who infringes, or may infringe, the copyright, trademark or other intellectual property rights of others. 
     
    A customisation fee applies for all custom products that are ordered through the Site. Please review your customised item carefully prior to submitting your order; customised items may not be cancelled once the order has been accepted by YETI in the event you change your mind. YETI is not responsible for any errors or mistakes that have been approved. YETI is not responsible for any product customisation that is not ordered through the product customisation service on the Site or a YETI sales representative. 

22. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND SUBJECT TO SECTION 14, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ITS OWN NEGLIGENCE, SHALL YETI OR ITS MEMBERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, AGENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, SUPPLIERS, OR ANY OTHER PARTY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, TRANSMITTING, OR DISTRIBUTING YETI'S SERVICES AND PRODUCTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF YETI HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), RESULTING FROM: (A) THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE; (B) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH OR FROM THE SITE; (C) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (D) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SITE OR (E) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE SITE.

27. Applicable Law.
