VONDER TERMS OF SERVICE
Thank you for choosing VONDER!
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to purchases and use through our English-language Site. Separate terms may apply to purchases made through our other regional sites. If you reside in the European Economic Area (EEA), please refer to the EEA Annex attached to these Terms. The EEA Annex provides additional rights and prevails over any conflicting provisions in the main body of these Terms.
By creating a VONDER account, completing the setup of a VONDER Product, accessing the VONDER website at https://www.vonder.ai/ (the “Site”), placing an order for any VONDER Product through the Site, or otherwise accessing or using the VONDER Products, you (a) acknowledge that you have read and understood these Terms; (b) agree to be legally bound by these Terms; and (c) confirm that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Site or the VONDER Products.
These Terms apply to matters concerning you and Vonderful Inc. and its affiliates (“Vonderful”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) regarding (a) your access to and use of the Site; (b) your purchase of products and accessories manufactured and sold by Vonderful through the Site (collectively, “Products”); and (c) your use of such Products and their operating systems, including the VONDER AI assistant whether accessed through the VONDER device and App or through its web version (collectively with the Products, the “VONDER Products”). The VONDER Products referenced herein are subject to changes based on the models and system versions you use or the requirements of local laws and regulations.
Purchases of VONDER Products made through third-party marketplaces (such as Amazon, eBay, or other authorized retailers) are governed by the terms of those marketplaces, not by these Terms.
Age and Parental Responsibility. The VONDER Products are not directed to, or intended for use by, minors under applicable laws. If a minor nonetheless uses the VONDER Products, we expect that such use occurs only under the supervision and with the consent of the minor’s parent or legal guardian, who must accept these Terms on the minor’s behalf and assume joint and several responsibility for the minor’s compliance with these Terms. Please review these Terms together with your parent or legal guardian to ensure you both understand all rights and obligations. For details on how we handle personal data relating to minors, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
Modifications. We may modify these Terms as described in Section 22 (Changes to these Terms). Material changes will be subject to advance notice and, where required by applicable law, your affirmative acceptance. For non-material administrative changes, we may update the “Last Updated” date above.

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to support the VONDER Products and to provide software updates for a reasonable period after purchase. We may, however, discontinue support for, or terminate certain features of, the VONDER Products, including cloud-dependent features that rely on third-party services. Where we decide to discontinue support or terminate a material feature, we will provide reasonable advance notice through the VONDER Products or other communication channels and, where applicable, information about any alternatives or transition options. Nothing in this Section affects any non-waivable statutory rights you may have under applicable law.

3.2 Third Party Content
The VONDER Products may provide access to, or include, content, services, applications, or other materials provided by third parties (collectively, “Third Party Content”). Third Party Content includes, without limitation, third-party applications, integrations, plug-ins, software development kits, and content made available through third-party platforms accessible via the VONDER Products.
Your use of Third Party Content may be subject to additional terms, conditions, and privacy policies of the relevant third-party provider, and you are responsible for reviewing and complying with such terms.

If a provider of Third Party Content violates our policies or applicable law, we may, at our discretion, remove or disable such Third Party Content.
3.3 Continuity of VONDER Products
Certain features of the VONDER Products may rely on services provided by third parties and may not function properly, or may become unavailable, if such third-party services are modified, discontinued, or otherwise interrupted. Our obligations regarding ongoing product support, software updates, and end-of-service are set forth in Section 2.4.
3.4 Customer Support
Vonderful will be responsible for inquiries related to the purchase of, and basic technical support for, the VONDER Products.

4. Purchasing VONDER Products
4.1 Orders
Our presentation of Products on the Site does not constitute a binding offer, but an invitation for you to place an order. When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase the Products at the prices and on the terms displayed at checkout. A binding contract of sale is formed only when we send you a shipping confirmation. We may cancel or refuse any order, in whole or in part, at any time prior to shipment, including where the Product is unavailable, there is a pricing or description error, you exceed our permitted order quantity, we suspect fraud or unauthorized payment, or we are required to do so by law. If we cancel an order for which you have already paid, we will refund the full amount within a commercially reasonable time. We may process and ship parts of an order separately.
Products are sold for personal use only. You may not purchase Products for commercial resale, lease, or export without our prior written authorization. This restriction does not apply to authorized VONDER resellers operating under a separate written agreement with us. Resale of Products may not be made to restricted countries, restricted end users, or for restricted end uses under applicable U.S. export and sanctions laws.
From time to time, we may make Products available for pre-order in advance of general release. The price of a pre-ordered Product will be as quoted at the time of pre-order. We may fulfill pre-orders in batches, and each batch becomes a separate contract upon shipping confirmation. If we are unable to fulfill a pre-order, in whole or in part, you are entitled to a full refund of any amount paid for the unfulfilled portion.
4.2 Pricing, Payment, and Taxes
Prices are displayed in the currency shown at checkout, which may vary depending on the site or region through which you place your order. Unless we clearly state otherwise, displayed prices for non-US region are inclusive of the value-added tax (VAT), for US region are exclusive of the value-added tax (VAT); shipping and handling charges (where applicable) are shown separately at checkout.
We attempt to be as accurate as possible in pricing and Product descriptions, but we do not warrant that all information on the Site is accurate, complete, or error-free. In the event of a pricing or description error, we may correct the error and revise your order accordingly, or cancel the order and refund any amount charged.
We accept the payment methods displayed at checkout. By providing payment information, you represent that (a) all information is accurate; (b) you are authorized to use the payment method; and (c) you authorize us, or our third-party payment processor, to charge your payment method for the total amount of your order, including applicable Taxes and shipping charges. If your payment method cannot be verified, is invalid, or is otherwise not acceptable, your order may be suspended or cancelled.
4.3 Shipping and Risk of Loss
You agree to pay any shipping and handling charges (when applicable) shown at the time you place an order. Any delivery dates or times shown at checkout are estimates only and are not guaranteed. The number of days quoted for standard and express shipping refers to transit time only; additional time may be required to process orders before dispatch.
Unless we state otherwise, risk of loss or damage to a Product passes to you upon delivery to the address you provided at checkout. You have thirty (30) days from the delivery date to notify us of any missing, wrong, or damaged Product. We may, in our discretion, replace, repair, or refund affected Products in accordance with our Return Policy.
We ship Products only to the destinations available for selection at checkout. If your desired delivery address is not available at checkout, we are unable to fulfill your order through the Site. For current shipping destinations and delivery estimates, please see our Order & Shipping page.
4.4 Returns and Refunds
We offer a 30-day return policy for Products purchased directly from the Site. If you are not satisfied with your purchase, you may return eligible Products within thirty (30) days from the delivery date, provided that you contact us within this 30-day window to initiate the return. This Section 4.4 applies only to purchases made directly through the Site. For purchases made through third-party marketplaces or authorized retailers, please follow the return policy of the seller from which you purchased.
To qualify for a refund, you must:
(a) contact our customer service team at hey@vonder.ai within the 30-day return window to initiate your return request;
(b) complete any return request information requested by our customer service team;
(c) return the item in good, like-new condition and complete — including all original tags, labels, packaging, and any accessories that shipped with your order (cables, case, lens inserts, and documentation); and
(d) follow the return instructions provided by our customer service team, including any return shipping address and reference information.
Returns shipped without prior authorization from our customer service team may be refused, and we are not responsible for any Product delivered to us without authorization. Return shipping costs and a return handling fee may apply depending on the reason for return. Our team will confirm all applicable fees when processing your return request.
We will process refunds within fourteen (14) business days after our receipt and inspection of the returned Product, using the same payment method you used for the original purchase, unless otherwise agreed. The time required for the refund to appear in your account depends on your payment provider. Shipping and handling charges, where separately paid, are not refundable unless the return is due to a defect, damage on arrival, or our error.
Orders for products that are personalized, customized, or made to your specific requirements (such as prescription lens and/ or customized eyewear ) cannot be canceled after 24 hours of order placement (placed into production); such products are not eligible for return or exchange.
We reserve the right to deny returns in circumstances involving excessive returns, suspected fraud, violation of these Terms, or other abuse of this Vonder Warranty & Returns Policy. If we receive a Product that we determine is not a genuine VONDER Product (i.e., a counterfeit), we are not obligated to complete the return or issue a refund.
4.5 Warranty
VONDER Products are covered by a limited manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use, for a period of three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the date of delivery (the “Limited Warranty”). The Limited Warranty covers the Product and accessories included in the original packaging, but does not cover consumable items such as nose pad inserts and microfiber cloths. Software made available with the VONDER Products is maintained through updates and is not separately warranted under the Limited Warranty.
To request warranty service, please contact us at hey@vonder.ai with proof of purchase, a description of the issue, and photos or video where available. See further details in our Vonder Warranty & Returns Policy.
The Limited Warranty covers only Products purchased directly from the Site or from VONDER’s authorized retail channels. Products purchased through unauthorized third-party sellers, resellers, or second-hand marketplaces are not covered by the Limited Warranty. The Limited Warranty is tied to the original purchaser and the date of original purchase from an authorized channel, and any remaining warranty coverage may not be transferable to subsequent owners.
The Limited Warranty does not cover loss, theft, or damage caused by drops, contact with liquids, or other forms of misuse or mishandling.
For Products that are not covered by the Limited Warranty, paid repair services may be available, subject to assessment and applicable service fees. Please contact us at hey@vonder.ai for further information.
Except for the Limited Warranty described above and any non-waivable statutory rights, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we make no other warranties, express or implied, with respect to the Products, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any rights you may have under the applicable consumer protection laws that cannot be waived by contract.
5. VONDER Product-Specific Terms (VONDER Glasses)
This Section 5 applies specifically to the VONDER smart glasses (“VONDER Glasses”), which are part of the VONDER Products. The following terms supplement the other provisions of these Terms and apply in addition to them. In the event of a conflict between this Section 5 and the other provisions of these Terms with respect to the VONDER Glasses, this Section 5 governs. For users in the EEA, the EEA Annex continues to prevail over any conflicting provision, including this Section 5.
5.1 Recording Features and Your Responsibilities
The VONDER Glasses include features that collect and transcribe audio. Such features are disabled by default and operate only when enabled by you.
You are solely responsible for your use of the recording features and for compliance with all laws applicable to such use, including any laws requiring the consent of one or more parties to a recording. Where required by applicable law, you must obtain the consent of other individuals before recording them. You must not use the recording features to record, monitor, or intercept any communication unlawfully, or to harass, infringe, or otherwise violate the rights of any person.
Vonderful is not responsible for your use of the recording features, and you bear sole responsibility for any consequences arising from such use.
5.2 AI Assistant and Generated Output
The VONDER Products use artificial intelligence to transcribe audio and generate summaries and other output (“AI Output”). AI Output is generated automatically, may be inaccurate or incomplete, and does not constitute professional advice of any kind, including legal, medical, or financial advice. You are responsible for evaluating the suitability and accuracy of AI Output before relying on it.
5.3 Prescription Lenses
Prescription VONDER Glasses are manufactured to your individual prescription. An order may be cancelled within 24 hours of placement; thereafter, the order cannot be cancelled, and the product is not eligible for return or exchange.
You are responsible for the accuracy of the prescription you provide. VONDER Glasses are not a substitute for a professional eye examination.
5.4 Web Version Service
The VONDER AI assistant is also available through a web version accessed via a browser, which requires a VONDER account. These Terms govern your use of the web version service where applicable.
On the web version, you can interact with the assistant by typing or by voice instruction. The web version does not support the recording modes available on the VONDER Glasses therefore Section 5.1 does not apply to it. Section 5.2 applies to the web version.
5.5 Subscription Plan
Plans. VONDER offers a free plan and paid subscription plans (currently “Starter Plan” and “Pro Plan”), as well as usage boosts.
The free plan does not include AI-powered services, you may use VONDER as your everyday Bluetooth earphones.

Billing cycle. Paid plans are offered on a monthly or annual basis.
Automatic renewal. Your paid subscription automatically renews at the end of each billing cycle (monthly or annual) unless you cancel before the end of the then-current cycle. By subscribing, you authorise the applicable payment providers to charge your payment method the then-current subscription price at the start of each renewal term.
Cancellation. You may cancel your subscription at any time under Settings. Your cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle: you will continue to have access to the paid features until the end of the cycle for which you have paid.
Refunds. Except where required by applicable law, subscription fees are non-refundable, and cancelling does not entitle you to a refund of fees already paid for the current billing cycle.
Effect on your data. Cancelling or ending your subscription does not automatically delete your data (including Memory data). You may delete your data at any time as described in our Privacy Policy.
Changes to plans or features. We may modify plans, features, usage limits, or pricing. For changes that materially affect a paid plan, we will provide advance notice and, where required, obtain your consent, consistent with Sections 2.2, 2.4, and 22.

(c) use the VONDER Products for any purpose prohibited by U.S. export control or sanctions laws, including in connection with the development, production, or use of nuclear, chemical, biological, radiological, or missile weapons, or for unauthorized military, intelligence, or mass surveillance purposes.
You represent and warrant that no U.S. federal agency has suspended, revoked, or denied your export privileges.
15. Intellectual Property Infringement Reports
We respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that material accessible through the VONDER Products infringes your copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, please contact us at legal@vonder.ai with the following information:
(a) a description of the intellectual property right you claim has been infringed; (b) identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location; (c) your contact information; (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the rights holder or applicable law; and (e) for copyright claims, a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the rights holder.

If you knowingly make a material misrepresentation that material is infringing, you may be liable for damages incurred by us or the alleged user as a result of our reliance on such misrepresentation.
16. Hyperlinks
16.1 Linking to VONDER Products
You may create text hyperlinks to our websites or product pages for fair and lawful purposes, such as editorial, informational, or referral purposes, provided that such links: (a) do not falsely imply endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation by Vonderful; (b) do not present the VONDER Products or Vonderful in a false, misleading, derogatory, or otherwise objectionable manner; and (c) do not frame or embed our content in a manner that obscures or misrepresents its source.
You may not use our logos, trademarks, or other proprietary graphics to create or accompany such links without our prior written permission, except as permitted by applicable law (such as nominative or descriptive uses in editorial content). We reserve the right to revoke our consent to any link at any time.
16.2 Third-Party Links
The VONDER Products may contain links to third-party websites, applications, or services. We provide these links for your convenience only, and the inclusion of any link does not imply our endorsement of the linked site or service. We do not control these third-party properties and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability, products, or services. If you access any third-party properties through links in the VONDER Products, you do so at your own risk and subject to the terms and policies of the relevant third party.
17. Disclaimers
17.1 Health and Safety Warnings
The VONDER Products are subject to important health and safety warnings and instructions. Before using the VONDER Products, you must read and follow all such warnings and instructions provided with the VONDER Products or made available through our website. Additional health and safety warnings may also be provided by third-party developers in relation to specific Third Party Content. You represent and warrant that you will read and follow all such warnings and instructions.
17.2 Disclaimer of Warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SITE, THE VONDER PRODUCTS, INCLUDING ALL SOFTWARE, CONTENT, AND RELATED SERVICES, ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.
No oral or written information or advice given by Vonderful or our representatives will create any warranty. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain implied warranties, so some of the disclaimers in this Section 17.2 may not apply to you.
Nothing in this Section limits the limited manufacturer warranty described in Section 4.5 or any non-waivable statutory rights you may have under applicable law.
17.3 Service Availability
Certain features of the VONDER Products depend on cloud services, third-party services, or network connectivity, which are subject to outages, interruptions, modifications, or discontinuation outside our reasonable control. We do not warrant the availability, accuracy, or continuity of such third-party-dependent features, and we will not be liable for any unavailability or interruption arising from such causes, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
18. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Vonderful and our affiliates, and our respective directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, and service providers (collectively, “Vonderful Parties”), from and against any third-party claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to:
(a) your breach of these Terms or any other applicable terms, policies, warnings, or instructions provided by Vonderful in relation to the VONDER Products;
(b) your violation of any applicable law or the rights of any third party;
(c) your misuse of the VONDER Products, including any use of recording, audio, or video capture functions in violation of applicable laws;
(d) any User Content you provide or any Feedback you submit that infringes or violates the rights of a third party; or
(e) your negligent or wrongful acts or omissions in connection with your use of the VONDER Products.
Vonderful will promptly notify you of any claim subject to indemnification under this Section 18 and reasonably cooperate with your defense at your expense. You will not settle any such claim in a manner that imposes any obligation or liability on Vonderful without Vonderful’s prior written consent. Vonderful reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you will cooperate with Vonderful in asserting any available defenses.
This Section 18 does not apply to the extent that a claim arises from Vonderful’s own negligence, willful misconduct, or breach of these Terms.
19. Limitation of Liability
Consequential Damages Excluded. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE VONDER PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE VONDER PRODUCTS, EVEN IF A VONDER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Aggregate Liability Cap. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE VONDER PARTIES FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE VONDER PRODUCTS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO VONDER FOR THE VONDER PRODUCT TO WHICH THE CLAIM RELATES.
Application of Limitations. The limitations and exclusions in this Section 19 apply regardless of the legal theory on which the claim is based (including contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise), and will apply even if any limited remedy provided in these Terms fails of its essential purpose. The foregoing limitations are fundamental and material elements of the basis of the agreement between Vonderful and you.
Exceptions. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits the liability of the Vonderful Parties for: (a) gross negligence or willful misconduct; (b) death or personal injury caused by the Vonderful Parties’ negligence; or (c) any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the exclusions and limitations in this Section 19 may not apply to you.
Indemnification Not Limited. The limitations in this Section 19 do not apply to your indemnification obligations under Section 18.
20. Dispute Resolution
This Section 20 governs how disputes between you and Vonderful are resolved. It provides that most disputes will be resolved through binding individual arbitration rather than in court, and includes a class action waiver. You may opt out of these provisions as described in Section 20.4.
20.1 Informal Resolution
Before initiating any formal proceeding, you and Vonderful agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days by sending a written notice describing the dispute to legal@vonder.ai.
20.2 Binding Arbitration
Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the VONDER Products that cannot be resolved informally (each, a “Dispute”) will be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. This Section is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
This Section 20 does not apply to: (a) claims that qualify for small claims court; or (b) claims by either party seeking injunctive or other equitable relief to protect intellectual property rights.
20.3 Class Action Waiver
YOU AND VONDER AGREE TO BRING ANY DISPUTE ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If a court determines that this waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy will be severed from arbitration and may be brought in court, while the remaining claims will proceed in arbitration.
20.4 Right to Opt Out
You may opt out of this Section 20 by sending a written notice to legal@vonder.ai within thirty (30) days of first becoming subject to these Terms, including your name, the email address associated with your VONDER account or order, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out.
20.5 Mandatory Local Consumer Protection
Nothing in this Section 20 affects any mandatory consumer protection rights you may have under the laws of your jurisdiction that cannot be waived by contract.
21. Governing Law
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the VONDER Products are governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflicts of law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.
To the extent any dispute is not subject to arbitration under Section 20, you and Vonderful agree that such dispute will be resolved exclusively in the federal or state courts located in San Francisco County or San Mateo County, California, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
If you reside in the European Economic Area, please refer to the EEA Annex attached to these Terms.
Nothing in this Section 21 affects any mandatory consumer protection laws of your jurisdiction that cannot be waived by contract.
22. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The most current version will be available on our website, with the “Last Updated” date at the top reflecting the date of the most recent revision.
For material changes (such as changes affecting your rights, dispute resolution, fees, or how we handle your personal information), we will provide reasonable advance notice through the VONDER Products, by email, or through our website. Material changes will take effect on the date specified in the notice, which will be at least thirty (30) days after we provide notice unless a shorter period is required by applicable law.
For non-material changes (such as corrections, clarifications, or updates to contact information), we may simply update the “Last Updated” date without separate notice.
Your continued use of the VONDER Products after a change takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the VONDER Products. Continued use after a material change becomes effective will be deemed acceptance of those changes only if you have received notice as described above.
23. Termination
23.1 Termination by You
You may stop using the VONDER Products at any time. If you have a VONDER account, you may close your account by contacting us at hey@vonder.ai or through the account settings, where available.
23.2 Termination by Vonderful
We may suspend or terminate your right to access and use the VONDER Products if: (a) you materially breach these Terms; (b) you violate applicable law in connection with your use of the VONDER Products; (c) such action is required by law, court order, or governmental authority; or (d) we permanently discontinue the VONDER Products. Except in cases of urgency or where prohibited by law, we will provide reasonable advance notice before terminating your access.
23.3 Effect of Termination
Upon termination of these Terms by either party: (a) your right to use the VONDER Products will end, except that you may continue to use any VONDER physical products you have purchased, subject to any applicable software or service restrictions; (b) any outstanding payment obligations will remain due; and (c) the following sections will survive termination: Section 8 (User Content, with respect to the license granted), Section 12 (Ownership), Section 13 (Feedback), Section 18 (Indemnification), Section 19 (Limitation of Liability), Section 20 (Dispute Resolution), Section 21 (Governing Law), and any other provisions that by their nature should survive.
24. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, or, if it cannot be so modified, will be severed from these Terms, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
EEA & UK Annex to VONDER Terms of Service
This EEA & UK Annex forms part of the VONDER Terms of Service (“Terms”) and provides additional rights and protections for consumers who reside in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK). The provisions of this Annex supplement the main body of the Terms; where any provision of this Annex conflicts with the main body of the Terms, this Annex prevails with respect to EEA and UK consumers.
1. Scope and Application
This Annex applies to you if (a) you reside in a Member State of the EEA or in the UK, and (b) you are a consumer, meaning a natural person acting for purposes that are outside your trade, business, craft, or profession.
The rights and protections set out in this Annex are in addition to, and do not replace, the rights and protections provided to you under the main body of the Terms or under applicable mandatory consumer protection laws. Nothing in this Annex limits any non-waivable rights you have under the laws of your country of residence.
For UK consumers, references to EU law (including Directive 2019/771) are to the equivalent UK law, and references to the GDPR are to the UK GDPR.
2. Right of Withdrawal — Physical Goods
2.1 14-Day Right of Withdrawal. As an EEA consumer, you have the right to withdraw from your purchase of physical goods, without giving any reason, within 14 days from the day you receive the goods. We voluntarily extend this period to 30 days under Section 4.4 of the main Terms, which applies in your favor.
2.2 How to Exercise. To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us of your decision by an unequivocal statement (for example, by email to hey@vonder.ai).
2.3 Effects of Withdrawal. If you withdraw, we will refund all payments received from you, including the costs of standard delivery, without undue delay and in any event within 14 days of receiving your withdrawal notification. We may withhold the refund until we have received the goods back or you have provided evidence of having sent them, whichever is the earlier.
2.4 Returning the Goods. You must send back the goods without undue delay and in any event within 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal. You will bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
2.5 Diminished Value. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from handling beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and functioning of the goods. The restocking fee referenced in Section 4.4 of the main Terms does not apply to consumers in the EEA or UK; instead, any deduction from your refund will reflect the actual diminished value of the goods, evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
3. Legal Guarantee of Conformity
3.1 Two-Year Legal Guarantee. As an EEA consumer, you are entitled, free of charge, to a legal guarantee that physical VONDER Products you purchase conform with the contract at the time of delivery and remain in conformity for a period of at least two (2) years from delivery, in accordance with EU Directive 2019/771 and applicable national laws. Some EEA Member States may provide for a longer guarantee period, which will apply in your favor where applicable. For UK consumers, you also have the short-term right to reject the goods and obtain a refund within 30 days of delivery where the goods are faulty, in accordance with the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
3.2 What “Conformity” Means. A VONDER Product is in conformity with the contract if it meets the description, type, quantity, and quality agreed in the contract, is fit for the purposes for which goods of the same type are normally used, and is supplied with any accessories and instructions the consumer may reasonably expect to receive.
3.3 Remedies. If a VONDER Product does not conform, you are entitled, at your option and at no cost to you, to:
(a) repair of the VONDER Product;
(b) replacement of the VONDER Product;
(c) a proportionate price reduction; or
(d) termination of the contract with a refund.
We may decline a requested remedy (such as repair or replacement) if it would be impossible or would impose disproportionate costs on us compared to an alternative remedy, in which case we will provide an alternative remedy.
3.4 Burden of Proof. Where a lack of conformity becomes apparent within one (1) year from delivery of the VONDER Product, it is presumed to have existed at the time of delivery, unless we can prove otherwise.
3.5 How to Claim. To exercise your rights under this Section, please contact us at hey@vonder.ai with details of the issue and proof of purchase. We will respond without undue delay and arrange the appropriate remedy.
3.6 Relationship to Other Rights. The legal guarantee under this Section is separate from and in addition to the 30-day return policy in Section 4.4 of the main Terms, the limited manufacturer warranty in Section 4.5 of the main Terms, and the right of withdrawal in Section 2 of this Annex. The disclaimers in Section 17 of the main Terms do not affect or limit your rights under this Section.
4. Updates Obligation
4.1 Provision of Updates. Where a VONDER Product includes digital elements (such as software or firmware), we will inform you of and supply updates, including security updates, that are necessary to keep the VONDER Product in conformity with the contract.
4.2 Your Cooperation. To benefit from continued conformity, you must install updates within a reasonable time after we make them available and notify you of them. If you fail to install an update that we have made available and properly notified you of, we will not be responsible for any lack of conformity resulting solely from that failure, provided that we informed you of the consequences of not installing the update.
4.3 Security Updates. Where an update relates to a security vulnerability or a similar critical issue, it may be installed automatically as described in Section 2.2 of the main Terms.
5. Liability
The limitations and exclusions of liability in Section 19 of the main Terms apply to you to the extent permitted by applicable law. Nothing in the Terms or this Annex limits or excludes any liability of the Vonderful Parties that cannot be limited or excluded under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct, or our liability under the legal guarantee in Section 3 of this Annex.
6. Dispute Resolution and Jurisdiction
Before initiating any formal proceedings, we encourage you to contact us at legal@vonder.ai to attempt to resolve any dispute informally. Disputes that cannot be resolved informally may be brought by you before the competent courts in accordance with applicable EU, UK or other national law.
7. Governing Law and Mandatory Rights
The choice of California law in Section 21 of the main Terms applies, except that the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence prevail to the extent applicable.
Australia Annex to VONDER Terms of Service
This Australia Annex forms part of the VONDER Terms of Service (“Terms”) and applies to you if you are a “consumer” under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) (“ACL”). Where it conflicts with the main body of the Terms, this Annex prevails for consumers in Australia.
1. Australian Consumer
Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the ACL, including that goods will be of acceptable quality, match their description, and be fit for any purpose made known to us, and that services will be provided with due care and skill.
Nothing in the Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the ACL or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded. To the extent any provision of the Terms, including Sections 4.4, 4.5, 5.3, 17, and 19, would do so, that provision does not apply to you. Where goods have a major failure you are entitled to a replacement or refund and to compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage; where goods fail to be of acceptable quality without a major failure, you are entitled to repair or replacement. For more information, visit the ACCC at www.accc.gov.au.
2. Limited Warranty
The Limited Warranty in Section 4.5 is provided in addition to, and does not limit, your ACL rights. Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
3. Limitation of liability
Where the goods or services we supply are not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic, or household use, our liability for breach of a non-excludable guarantee is limited, at our option, to: (a) for goods, their replacement or repair, the supply of equivalent goods, or the cost of doing so; and (b) for services, supplying them again or the cost of doing so. Subject to your ACL rights, Section 19 of the Terms otherwise continues to apply to the extent permitted by law.
4. Dispute resolution
Section 20 of the Terms (arbitration and class action waiver) continues to apply, but nothing in it limits any right you have under the ACL or other Australian law to bring proceedings in a court, to participate in representative or class proceedings where available, or to complain to the ACCC.
5. Governing law and contact
The choice of California law in Section 21 applies, except that the mandatory consumer laws of Australia, including the ACL, prevail where they apply and cannot be excluded. For questions or complaints, contact hey@vonder.ai or the ACCC (www.accc.gov.au).
