To the extent that APICAL is liable in contract, tort or otherwise for any loss, damage or injury arising directly or indirectly from any defect in or non-compliance of a product or any other breach of APICAL’s obligations hereunder, such liability shall not in any event exceed an amount equivalent to the price of the product(s) giving rise to such liability. 

Both APICAL and the delivery service provider will not be held responsible for any damage or loss after delivery. You shall not use our products in any manner and/or for any purpose for which they are unsuited for, and you shall be responsible for using all necessary skill and care in handling and using the products.

Product information listed on APICAL Online may be different from information listed on the products for a variety of reasons including such things as manufacturers’ updates and changes.

The following general terms and conditions on use of a promotional code are in addition to, and subject to specific terms and conditions of a campaign/promotion activity:  

In the event of suspected fraud or misuse of any promotional code, or breach of its qualifying terms or the terms and conditions of the campaign/promotion, APICAL reserves the right to reject or cancel the use of a promotional code.

Where you are permitted to return any product to us for a refund/credit and such product was originally purchased under a promotion or discount (including use of a promotional code), you will only be refunded the amount that you originally paid for such product. Where the promotion or discount had applied to the entire order, we will refund you the selling price of the returned product less the promotion or discount applied to the returned product on a pro-rata basis.   

Further, any free promotional gift given with an order must also be returned if you are returning the product(s) to which the gift relates. If the total order value is reduced below the value of the qualifying free delivery or any promotion qualification because of a returned item, we may charge the delivery fee and/or the full value of the order without the promotion.  

APICAL reserves the right to change any terms of any contest/campaign/promotion activity without prior notice and substitute any token or prize with one of a similar value. Any prizes received for participating in any APICAL contests/campaigns/promotion activities are strictly non-transferable and are not exchangeable for cash or credit.
