Our Privacy Policy, https://defcad.com/privacy governs the processing of all data collected from you in connection with your purchase of Company products through the Website.
We will not be liable or responsible to you, nor be deemed to have defaulted or breached these Terms, for any failure or delay in our performance under these Terms when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, governmental actions, war, invasion or hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest, national emergency, revolution, insurrection, epidemic, lockouts, strikes or other labor disputes (whether or not relating to our workforce), or restraints or delays affecting carriers or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials, materials or telecommunication breakdown or power outage.
All matters arising out of or relating to these Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Arkansas without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Arkansas.
ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY ARISING FROM OR RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OR ANY PROVISIONS HEREIN SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. UNLESS BOTH PARTIES AGREE OTHERWISE, AND REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT N DISPUTE, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”), IN LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS, PURSUANT TO THE AAA’S RULES OF EXPEDITED COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION.
The failure by us to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Company.
The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution provides: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
Despite this broad language, there are many different local, state, and federal laws governing and/or limiting the possession, use, and manufacturing of firearms and firearm parts. These laws vary widely from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Laws also can and frequently do change.
Due to the wide variety of laws that may apply, DEFCAD is unable to provide legal advice, and nothing in these Terms should be interpreted as providing legal advice, to our users regarding their specific rights, duties, and potential legal liabilities. Each user of DEFCAD is solely responsible for ensuring that they understand, and are in full compliance with, all local, state, and federal laws which may apply to their use of this website and/or the possession and/or creation of physical firearm parts using models obtained from this site.
Products and services offered by DEFCAD are provided “AS-IS” and without any warranties, express or implied. Any and all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, are expressly disclaimed. There are no warranties which extend beyond the description on the face hereof.
You agree to indemnify and hold DEFCAD harmless from any claim, cause of action, demand or damages related to or arising out of: (a) content that you post or transmit via DEFCAD (including but not limited to CAD models, physical parts created therefrom, and any content that a third-party deems defamatory or otherwise harmful or offensive); (b) activity that occurs through or by use of your account (including, without limitation, all content posted or transmitted and your interactions with others); (c) your use of or reliance on any user content; and (d) your violation of these Terms. This indemnification obligation includes payment of any attorneys' fees and costs incurred by DEFCAD. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claims.
These terms constitute a legal agreement between you and DEFCAD. These terms are not intended to be, and shall not be, enforceable by any third party/parties.
If any provision of these Terms is invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severed from these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms.
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and DEFCAD. These Terms supersede any prior written or oral agreement. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, all other provisions remain in full force and effect.
Federal law, specifically 47 U.S.C. § 230(d), requires the provider of an “interactive computer service” (such as a website) to “notify [each] customer that parental control protections (such as computer hardware, software, or filtering services) are commercially available that may assist the customer in limiting access to material that is harmful to minors.”
Pursuant to this requirement, if you are a parent and you are interested in obtaining commercial tools to help you limit access to material that is harmful to minors, you can find a list of such tools here: PCMag.com – The Best Parental Control Software for 2020.
NOTE – DEFCAD has no relationship with either PCMag.com or with any of the software vendors mentioned in this article. We do not endorse or recommend any specific parental control software, product, or service.
