Frequently Asked Questions

Loyalty Program (“Thrive Causemetics Rewards”)

The Loyalty Program ("Program") is a free rewards program offered by Thrive Causemetics, Inc. ("TC") to its customers located in the U.S. and Canada. Membership in the Program ("Membership") is limited to individuals only and is limited to one account per individual. You must be age 16 years or older and a legal resident of the United States or Canada to be eligible for Membership. Members agree that creation of a membership and/or participation in the Program will represent the Member’s full acceptance of TC’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. 

 

TC reserves the right to change or withdraw any benefits of the Program or suspend or terminate the Program at any time at its sole discretion and for any reason. We reserve the right to immediately suspend or terminate any Member's account, for any reason, including but not limited to the following: if we reasonably believe that these Terms have been breached, if there is any theft from or misconduct in connection with TC, if the Member supplies false or misleading information to TC, if TC considers that the Member has acted improperly or in an abusive, defamatory, criminal, or offensive way to any other Member or to TC staff. If your Membership is revoked or otherwise canceled, any Points in your account will automatically expire.

 

Creating a customer account on the Site will automatically enroll you to be a member of the Program and no purchase is necessary to become a Member of the Program. By becoming a member, you agree to receive advertising, marketing materials, and other communications from TC. Additionally, you will automatically be subscribed to receive Program emails. If you do not wish to receive these communications, you can request that they be discontinued by updating your customer profile on our site or by emailing Customer Service at help@thrivecausemetics.com or by calling 1 (888) 804- 4318. 

 

Program Points

There are tiers of membership in the Program. Moving up membership tiers requires a minimum spend, as explained below (or on our Loyalty page link). All membership tiers enjoy a variety of benefits made available by TC in its sole discretion from time to time (“Benefits”). Benefits may vary by tier and some tiers may have more Benefits than others. The type, timing and availability of any Benefits (including Rewards, special offers, sweepstakes, one of a kind experiences, exclusive events and advance access to products) will be determined by TC in its sole discretion.

Points Expiration

It is our hope that you redeem your Program Points on a regular basis. The Program is based on a 12 month rolling calendar from the time you earn points. As explained further, upon earning Points, you will have 12 months to spend those points. Each earning of points will have its own expiration date, 12 months after the earning date. For example, if 100 points were earned on January 15th, you have 12 months from that date (January 15th of the next year) to use those 100 points. If you earn another 100 points on February 15th, you now have 12 months from that date (February 15th of the next year) to use the new 100 points. 

All unredeemed Points will expire when a member has not engaged in their Point activity associated with that membership account for 12 months or more. 

Tier Eligibility 

Once you have qualified for a tier based on the spend thresholds above and have not been refunded and have not canceled any qualifying orders, you will enjoy that tier eligibility for 12 months from the date you became eligible for that tier. In order to maintain eligibility for a tier beyond the initial 12 months, you will have to continue to meet the spend thresholds.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

All matters relating to the Website, our products and services, and these Terms, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Washington without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Washington or any other jurisdiction).

Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of the State of Washington and the United States, respectively, sitting in King County, Washington. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.

If your local law requires that consumer contracts be interpreted subject to local law and enforced in the courts of that jurisdiction, this section may not be applicable to you (but only to the extent that local law conflicts with this section).

Arbitration

Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with TC and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration agreement. In addition, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial. 

No Representative Actions. You and TC agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Website, or its products and services, is personal to you and TC and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.

Arbitration of Disputes. Except for small claims disputes in which you or TC seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or TC seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and TC waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Website, products or services resolved in court. Instead, for any dispute or claim that you have against TC or relating in any way to the Website, or our products or services,  you agree to first contact TC and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to TC by email at legal@thrivecausemetics.com or by certified mail addressed to Thrive Causemetics Legal Department, 10900 NE 4th St. Suite 2300 Bellevue, WA 98004.  The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and TC cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator.  Arbitration proceedings will be held in King County, Washington or may be conducted telephonically or via video conference for disputes alleging damages less than $5,000, unless you are a consumer, in which case you may elect to hold the arbitration in your county of residence in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”).  For purposes of this section, you will be deemed a “consumer” if you use the Website for your personal, family or household purposes. The most recent version of the JAMS Rules are available on the JAMS website and are hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason. 

You and TC agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 17 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability. The arbitrator may conduct only an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual. 

The arbitrator, TC, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The arbitration will allow for the discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

You and TC agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee (up to a maximum of $250 if you are a consumer), and TC will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by Company, TC will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and TC agree that the state or federal courts of the State of Washington and the United States sitting in King County, Washington have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award. 

Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or our Website, products or services must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and TC will not have the right to assert the claim. 

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 17 by notifying us via certified mail addressed to TC Legal Department, 10900 NE 4th St. Suite 2300 Bellevue, WA 98004.  In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with Section 16.

If any portion of this Section 17 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 17 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 17; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section 17 is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 17 will be enforceable.  

Alternatives to Arbitration

If you are a resident of a jurisdiction that prohibits the application of Washington law in a consumer contract, these Terms will be governed by the laws of your jurisdiction of residence and the non-exclusive venue of any claim will the in the courts of your jurisdiction of residence.

Thrive Causemetics (“TC,” “we” or “us”) offers a mobile messaging program (the “Program”), which you agree to use and participate in subject to these Mobile Messaging Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy (the “Agreement”). By opting in to or participating in any of our Programs, you accept and agree to these terms and conditions, including, without limitation, your agreement to resolve any disputes with us through binding, individual-only arbitration, as detailed in the “Dispute Resolution” section below. This Agreement is limited to the Program and is not intended to modify other Terms and Conditions or Privacy Policy that may govern the relationship between you and TC in other contexts.

User Opt In: The Program allows Users to receive SMS/MMS mobile messages by affirmatively opting into the Program, such as through online or application-based enrollment forms. Regardless of the opt-in method you utilized to join the Program, you agree that this Agreement applies to your participation in the Program. By participating in the Program, you agree to receive autodialed or prerecorded marketing mobile messages at the phone number associated with your opt-in, and you understand that consent is not required to make any purchase from TC. While you consent to receive messages sent using an autodialer, the foregoing shall not be interpreted to suggest or imply that any or all mobile messages are sent using an automatic telephone dialing system (“ATDS” or “autodialer”). Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. 

User Opt Out: If you do not wish to continue participating in the Program or no longer agree to this Agreement, you agree to reply STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT to any mobile message from TC in order to opt out of the Program. You may receive an additional mobile message confirming your decision to opt out. You understand and agree that the foregoing options are the only reasonable methods of opting out. You acknowledge that our text message platform may not recognize and respond to unsubscribe requests that alter, change, or modify the STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE or QUIT keyword commands, such as the use of different spellings or the addition of other words or phrases to the command, and agree that TC and its service providers will have no liability for failing to honor such requests.  You also understand and agree that any other method of opting out, including, but not limited to, texting words other than those set forth above or verbally requesting one of our employees to remove you from our list, is not a reasonable means of opting out.

Program Description: Without limiting the scope of the Program, users that opt into the Program can expect to receive messages concerning the marketing, promotion, payment, delivery and sale of cosmetics and skincare products. Messages may include checkout reminders. 

Cost and Frequency: Message and data rates may apply. You agree to receive messages periodically at TC’s discretion. Daily, weekly, and monthly message frequency will vary. The Program involves recurring mobile messages, and additional mobile messages may be sent periodically based on your interaction with TC.

Support Instructions: For support regarding the Program, text “HELP” to the number you received messages from or email us at help@thrivecausemetics.com. Please note that the use of this email address is not an acceptable method of opting out of the program. Opt outs must be submitted in accordance with the procedures set forth above.

MMS Disclosure: The Program will send SMS TMs (terminating messages) if your mobile device does not support MMS messaging.

Disclaimer of Warranty: The Program is offered on an "as-is" basis and may not be available in all areas at all times and may not continue to work in the event of product, software, coverage or other changes made by your wireless carrier. TC will not be liable for any delays or failures in the receipt of any mobile messages connected with this Program.

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered mobile messages.

Not all cellular phone providers carry the necessary service to participate. Check your phone capabilities for specific text messaging instructions.

Dispute Resolution: In the event that there is a dispute, claim, or controversy between you and TC, or between you and Stodge Inc. d/b/a Postscript or any other third-party service provider acting on TC’s behalf to transmit the mobile messages within the scope of the Program, arising out of or relating to federal or state statutory claims, common law claims, this Agreement, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, such dispute, claim, or controversy will be, to the fullest extent permitted by law, determined by arbitration in King County, Washington before one arbitrator.

The parties agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, the arbitrator shall apply the substantive laws of the Federal Judicial Circuit in which TC’s principle place of business is located, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Within ten (10) calendar days after the arbitration demand is served upon a party, the parties must jointly select an arbitrator with at least five years’ experience in that capacity and who has knowledge of and experience with the subject matter of the dispute. If the parties do not agree on an arbitrator within ten (10) calendar days, a party may petition the AAA to appoint an arbitrator, who must satisfy the same experience requirement. In the event of a dispute, the arbitrator shall decide the enforceability and interpretation of this arbitration agreement in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). The parties also agree that the AAA’s rules governing Emergency Measures of Protection shall apply in lieu of seeking emergency injunctive relief from a court. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding, and no party shall have rights of appeal except for those provided in section 10 of the FAA. Each party shall bear its share of the fees paid for the arbitrator and the administration of the arbitration; however, the arbitrator shall have the power to order one party to pay all or any portion of such fees as part of a well-reasoned decision. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have the authority to award attorneys’ fees only to the extent expressly authorized by statute or contract. The arbitrator shall have no authority to award punitive damages and each party hereby waives any right to seek or recover punitive damages with respect to any dispute resolved by arbitration. 

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY VIA ARBITRATION AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. Further, unless both parties agree otherwise in a signed writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.  

Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, unless to protect or pursue a legal right. If any term or provision of this Section is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Section or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. If for any reason a dispute proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the parties hereby waive any right to a jury trial. This arbitration provision shall survive any cancellation or termination of your agreement to participate in any of our Programs.

Florida Law: TC endeavors to comply with the Florida Telemarketing Act and the Florida Do Not Call Act as applicable to Florida residents.  For purposes of compliance, you agree that we may assume that you are a Florida resident if, at the time of opt-in to Program, (1) your shipping address, as provided is located in Florida or (2) the area code for the phone number used to opt-into the Program is a Florida area code.  You agree that the requirements of the Florida Telemarketing Act and the Florida Do Not Call Act do not apply to you, and you shall not assert that you are a Florida resident, if you do not meet either of these criteria or, in the alternative, do not affirmatively advise us in writing that you are a Florida resident by sending written notice to us.  Insofar as you are a Florida resident, you agree that mobile messages sent by TC in direct response to mobile messages or requests from You (including but are not limited to response to Keywords, opt-in, help or stop requests and shipping notifications) shall not constitute a “telephonic sales call” or “commercial telephone solicitation phone call” for purposes of Florida Statutes Section 501 (including but not limited to sections 501.059 and 501.616), to the extent the law is otherwise relevant and applicable.

Miscellaneous: You warrant and represent to TC that you have all necessary rights, power, and authority to agree to these Terms and perform your obligations hereunder, and nothing contained in this Agreement or in the performance of such obligations will place you in breach of any other contract or obligation. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. Any new features, changes, updates or improvements of the Program shall be subject to this Agreement unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing. TC reserves the right to change this Agreement from time to time. Any updates to this Agreement shall be communicated to you. You acknowledge your responsibility to review this Agreement from time to time and to be aware of any such changes. By continuing to participate in the Program after any such changes, you accept this Agreement, as modified.
