Returned.com provides a mobile App that consolidates your online and in-store purchase in one place, identifies items eligible for return, and allows you to initiate a return.

Once the return is completed, you can ship the item back to the Retailer, drop it off at the nearest physical store or request a return package pickup.

The “Import Services” consist of the following features: Email Import and Amazon Connect. This access and information are required for us to provide certain of our Services to you, which will not be available if you do not agree to comply with the terms in this Section 10.

Returned.com will use this information and show this information in the Returned.com App.
The Import Services enable Returned.com to collect data from the selected accounts on your behalf to surface order information.

We may also process special categories of personal data (this may include data relating to e.g. health, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, etc.) as a side-effect or unavoidable disclosure when scanning your inbox or your account for relevant data. This processing is based on your consent provided by you when you signed up for the Services. We do not process this data for any other purpose. If such special category personal data is directly related to a relevant purchase, we will not use this data for marketing or consumer profiling purposes.
We encourage you to read the Privacy Policy for a more detailed understanding of how we process and protect your data, information about your rights, how you can get in touch with us, or to submit a complaint.
Availability and safeguarding measures
Returned.com aims to provide the Import Services with high availability and without technical interference, but we cannot guarantee that the Import Services will always be fully available. We may occasionally need to restrict the availability or immediately suspend the Import Services for security reasons, authority decisions, for technical or maintenance reasons, or other reasons.
Returned.com does not represent or warrant that the Import Services are able to collect information from all orders or deliveries that are available via your email or your Amazon account.
In the event of fraud, suspected fraud or security threats in connection with the Import Services we will inform you by phone call, email or text message unless providing such information would compromise objectively justified security reasons or is otherwise prohibited by law.
Duration and termination
If you disconnect your accounts from the Import Services features to which you have enrolled in the Returned.com App, we will then stop importing new data. However, previously imported data will still be available in the Returned.com App. You may contact Returned.com’s customer service team if you have any questions regarding the Import Services or need help disconnecting any of the features.
You may also decide to terminate only one of the Import Services features provided as part of the Import Services. If you decide to terminate a feature, this Agreement will continue to apply in relation to the remaining features to which you have enrolled. You can find more information on how you can terminate a feature in the specific terms relevant for the feature below.
Please note that deliveries and purchases visualized in the Returned.com App based on data already collected via the Import Services will still be visible in the Returned.com App, for the duration of the Services.

Returned.com may suspend, limit your access to any or all of the Import Services and/or terminate this Agreement where we reasonably consider it necessary to comply with our legal obligations or in the event you have not complied with this Section 10, for example:
To prevent fraud;
To limit the risk of money laundering and/or terrorism financing;
To protect us against any legal or regulatory risks, including any security risks;
We reasonably suspect, or are aware, that you have breached this Agreement in any material respect; or
We otherwise reasonably consider your activity associated with the Services to be in violation of any applicable law or regulation.

Dispute Resolution; Mandatory Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
We will try work in good faith to resolve any issue you have with the Platform, including services ordered or purchased through the Platform, if you bring that issue to the attention of our customer service department. However, we realize that there may be rare cases where we may not be able to resolve an issue to a customer's satisfaction.
YOU AND RETURNED.COM ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.
ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND US ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM OR SERVICES, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. The arbitration will be administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (JAMS) under the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect, except as modified by this Section 40. The Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures are available online at jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms, the Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.
The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the agreement is void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
If you seek arbitration or elect to file a small claim court action, you must first send, by certified mail, a written notice of your claim (a “Notice”) to Returned.com, ATTN: Returned.com Support Team, 4845 Pearl East Cir Ste 118 PMB 48238, Boulder, Colorado 80301. If Returned.com initiates the arbitration, it will send such Notice to you in accordance with this section. A Notice, whether sent by you or Returned.com, must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) describe the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If you and Returned.com do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Returned.com may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.
You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. IN ANY DISPUTE, NEITHER YOU NOR RETURNED.COM WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.
This arbitration clause shall survive the termination of these Terms of Service. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then (a) the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, but the remaining provisions of these Terms of Service shall remain in full force and effect; and (b) exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claims will be as set forth above.
Limitation on Time to File Claims.
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE OR THE PLATFORM MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
