You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made at our store. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address and credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.
- Shipping and Delivery. We can only fulfill an order to a valid delivery address which is a home or office address within a country that can be selected for billing and shipping addresses as part of the checkout process. We do not take responsibility for customs fees. International shipments may incur customs fees. For each country the customs policy is different, and the fee is usually based on a variety of factors like weight, value, and size. Orders within the United States by USPS have full tracking available. For international orders, full tracking will only be available for orders sent through International Priority, which costs a bit more. If your order doesn't arrive, be sure to let us know! First, check your shipping confirmation and check that you had entered the correct address. If the address was incorrect, though we'd be happy to send you another order to the correct address, it will have to be at your cost. If the shipping address was correct, get in touch with us at shop@impacttheory.com noting your order number. We'll re-send your order on us! For more details please refer to our Shipping/FAQs page.
- Returns. If you're unhappy with the size you've received, first check that the size stated on the garment matches the size stated on the sizing chart. Though rare, it's possible that the garment was mislabelled. Let us know and we'll get you sorted out. If you'd like a different size, get in touch with us at shop@impacttheory.com and we'll let you know what your next steps are. We offer a 7 Day Hassle FREE Returns if you’re unsatisfied with your item. Please contact us at shop@impacttheory.com. The last thing we want is for you to be stuck with a damaged item. We offer 30 days FREE Returns/Exchanges for any defected items from us. Additional information can be found on our Shipping/FAQs page.
- Refund Policy. The Impact Theory Money-Back Guarantee covers the price of your purchase. Customers must contact our support department at support@impacttheory.com for a refund. Once a return is received or a valid refund request submitted, the refund process will take no more than 30 days. All refunds will be either returned to the original credit card, or PayPal orders will be credited back to the PayPal account. You have 30 days from the date of the original purchase to request your refund. Any refund request received after this time will not be processed.

Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules. Judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. If conducted in person, the arbitration shall take place in the United States county where you reside. The parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay a proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. The parties shall cooperate in good faith in the voluntary and informal exchange of all non-privileged documents and other information (including electronically stored information) relevant to the Dispute immediately after commencement of the arbitration. Nothing in these Terms will prevent us from seeking injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to protect our proprietary interests.
