Assumption of Risk



When you use NOVA , you confirm that you are aware and understand that any activity involving Nicotine, electronic nicotine delivery systems (“ENDS”), e-cigarettes, vaporizers, liquid nicotine mixtures, pre-filled e-cigarettes, vape mixtures, batteries and any and other vaping products and accessories (collectively “Vapes”) involve risks, hazards and dangers. Lithium-Ion batteries are potentially hazardous and can present a serious fire hazard if damaged, defective or improperly used. Vapes can at any time cause electrocution, severe burns, cuts, chemical explosions, choking, even death. Vapes can have dangerous manufacturer’s defects and faulty designs that could cause equipment failure that causes severe bodily harm and even death. Nicotine is highly addictive and can cause physical dependence. Nicotine can increase blood pressure and heart rate. Nicotine may produce adverse fetal effects and must never be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women. Nicotine can cause difficulty concentrating and deficits in task performance, and symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. Liquid Nicotine is highly toxic and can cause lethal poisoning through inhalation, skin contact or swallowing. The inhalation of e-liquid can cause severe allergic reactions or irritations. The inhalation of e-liquid may have unknown and severe short-term and/or long-term health effects. The inhalation of flavoured e-liquids containing Diacetyl, acetyl propionyl, acetoin or any other declared or undeclared chemical could cause long-term damage to your lungs. The improper storage of vaporizers and liquid Nicotine can be lethal. You understand that storing your vaporizers and liquid Nicotine in a safe place out of the reach of children and pets is absolutely necessary for the prevention of accidental poisoning or death. Nicotine should never be handled by or accessible to children or pets. NOVA is in no way responsible for these risks, hazards and dangers. If you choose to use these products, you do so at your own risk.

In no case shall NOVA , our directors, officers, employees, affiliates, fulfillment partners, agents, contractors, suppliers, service providers, or licensors ( collectively “Releasees” ) be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind, including, without limitation lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, arising from your use of any of the Service or any products procured using the Service, or for any other claim related in any way to your use of the Service or any product, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of the Service or any content (or product) posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available via the Service, even if advised of their possibility. You are waiving the right to sue or claim compensation following an accident, which you or your heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, and assigns may have against the Releasees. You hereby agree to waive any and all claims that you have or may have in the future against NOVA and to release the Releasees from any and all liability for any loss, damage, injury or expense you may suffer, or any persons exposed to products that you have purchased from NOVA may suffer, due to any cause whatsoever, including negligence, breach of contract, breach of any statutory or other duty of care. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless NOVA and our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, officers, directors, agents, contractors, licensors, service providers, subcontractors, suppliers, and employees, from any and all liability, claim or demand, for any damage to property or personal injury to yourself or a third party, including attorneys’ fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of these Terms or the documents they incorporate by reference or your violation of any law or the rights of a third-party.


Severability



In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service, such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.
