THE PAYMENT CARSON&BEAR MAKES FOR THE SECOND VETERINARIAN VISIT IS NOT PET HEALTH INSURANCE.  THE PAYMENT IS MADE FOR CARSON&BEAR TO OBTAIN INFORMATION ON YOUR REGISTERED PET.

1. Subscription Box Shipment selected by Carson&Bear.

(a) Carson&Bear selects, in its sole and absolute discretion, and also pays for the procurement and delivery to you of one or more goods such as a superfood meal topper, nutrition supplements, novelty items, and toys (the “Boxed Products”) on a monthly basis. Carson&Bear selects the Boxed Products to be delivered. Substitutions are not allowed. Superfood meal toppers and nutrition supplements may arrive subdivided into portion size packets (“Packets”).

YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR CHECKING THE INGREDIENT LIST FOR ANY SUPERFOOD MEAL TOPPERS AND NUTRITION SUPPLEMENTS IN THE BOXED PRODUCTS TO CONFIRM THE SUPERFOOD MEAL TOPPER DOES NOT CONTAIN ALLERGENS WHICH YOUR REGISTERED PET MAY HAVE. DO NOT FEED A PET THE SUPERFOOD MEAL TOPPER UNLESS YOU HAVE CONFIRMED SUCH PET IS NOT ALLERGIC TO ANY INGREDIENTS.

Carson&Bear reserves the right to change, cancel, non-renew or substitute any Boxed Products. Carson&Bear may send different Standard tier members different Boxed Products for the same time period. You will have no claim against Carson&Bear if or when Carson&Bear changes the Boxed Products shipped to you in a later time period compared to an earlier time period.

Carson&Bear makes no representation as to the market value of the Boxed Products, including whether the products have a market value. The Boxed Products may or may not have a market value either generally or in the allotments or packages sent as Boxed Products.

(b) Carson&Bear will ship the Boxed Products to the shipping address you designate with Carson&Bear. Carson&Bear does not warrant or guarantee the delivery date for Boxed Products and it is possible the Boxed Products arrives late, is lost or destroyed, in whole or part, during shipment.

2. TAILSCORE™.

THE TAILSCORE DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR ANY ALLERGIES YOUR PET MAY HAVE.  THE TAILSCORE WILL NOT TELL YOU IF THE FOOD MAY OR WILL CAUSE AN ALLERGIC REACTION TO YOUR PET.

 

THE TAILSCORE IS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS THE PRODUCT OF A PROPRIETARY CARSON&BEAR RATING SYSTEM THAT BALANCES COMPETING NUTRITIONAL CONCERNS AND IS BASED UPON GENERAL NUTRITIONAL PRINCIPLES AND DATA APPLICABLE TO (1) CERTAIN INGREDIENTS, (2) METHODS OF MANUFACTURE, STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION, (3) ABSORPTION OF NUTRIENTS, (4) OTHER GENERAL DATA RELATED TO CANINE NUTRITION.  NUTRITION IS A FIELD OF CONSTANT CHANGE AND OPINIONS MAY DIFFER ON WHICH NUTRITION RELATED DATA IS BETTER OR WORSE, ACCURATE OR INACCURATE, OR PROPERLY APPLIED TO A SPECIFIC DOG FOOD.  TAILSCORE™ IS NOT THE RESULT OF A CHEMICAL ASSAY OR LABORATORY STUDY OF A SPECIFIC DOG FOOD.

A LOW TAILSCORE™ IS NOT REPRESENTATION THAT DOG FOOD IS UNHEALTHY OR DANGEROUS TO FEED YOUR PET.

SOME DOG FOODS WILL HAVE A LOW TAILSCORE™ BECAUSE THE FOOD TARGETS A CERTAIN BENEFIT WHICH MAY BE BENEFICIAL AND A HIGH TAILSCORE™ MAY NOT BE ABLE TO BE ACHIEVED ALONG WITH THE SPECIFIC BENEFIT.

 

WE RECOGNIZE THAT VETERINARIANS RECOMMEND FOOD AND ARE SAID TO PRESCRIBE FOOD. THE TAILSCORE™ IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A DOG FOOD RECOMMENDATION OR PRESCRIPTION MADE BY A VETERINARIAN.  A RESPONSIBLE VETERINARIAN MAY RECOMMEND OR PRESCRIBE DOG FOOD WITH A LOW TAILSCORE™ BECAUSE SUCH FOOD PROVIDES A TARGETED BENEFIT TO A PATIENT OF THE VETERINARIAN.

b. Program Eligibility. Program Eligibility focuses on following the LIFEPROMISE™ Plan for the Registered Pet where you must (i) schedule and attend regular veterinarian visits and receive scheduled immunizations, boosters and treatments, (ii) follow and implement the medical advice given to you by a veterinarian related to your Registered Pet, (iii) your reporting these activities to us (which shall be excused if the vet for your Registered Pet is a Participating Vet with us) and (iv) your full and punctual compliance with your obligations under the Primary Terms and Agreement Library.

You are solely responsible for paying the costs of all items in (i)-(iv) and any other costs or expenses which you pay or incur to remain Program Eligible. Carson&Bear will not reimburse you for any costs or expenses.

c. Pausing LifePromise™ Up to a maximum we set, you may pause (“Pause”) your LifePromise™ eligibility by following the steps required to do so by following the steps we identify in the Services and User Experience (the “Portal”) and receive a confirming email to your registered email with us. For so long as your LifePromise™ eligibility is Paused, you will not be Program Eligible. FOR SO LONG AS YOU ARE PAUSED, YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE THE BENEFITS AVAILABLE TO THE ESSENTIAL SUBSCRIPTION MEMBER TIER LISTED IN SECTION 4(C).

FROM TIME TO TIME, WE MAY SET OR CHANGE CONDITIONS TO PAUSE AND END A PAUSE ON YOUR MEMBERSHIP TIER STATUS. YOU WILL FIND THESE CONDITIONS IN THE PORTAL.

When you terminate the Pause by following the steps required to do so in the Portal and receive a confirming email to your registered email with us, then your LifePromise™ eligibility will begin. Also, we will treat or consider your most recent prior uninterrupted period of Program Eligibility for your Registered Pet as re-starting as of the end of the Pause. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE PAUSED FOR MORE THAN SIXTY (60) DAYS, YOU WILL LOSE CREDIT FOR ALL PRIOR PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY AND MUST START OVER.

If we were not actually aware that you were not Program Eligible on any date or for any time period, but we later discover that you were not Program Eligible during any period of time, we may give you a notice that you were not Program Eligible for such periods and suck eligibility may reduce or eliminate and Promise Amount otherwise payable to you.

d. Exceptions to Promise Amount Refund.

No refunds are made in the event of an Accidental Injury, Euthanasia of your Registered Pet, or when your Registered Pet is Missing, even if you are Program Eligible.

Accidental Injury” means bodily injury or death (including euthanasia) resulting from an accident, attack, fight, injury, asphyxiation, insect bites, heart worms or other parasites, falls, collisions, impaling, weapons of any kind, improper or illegal administration of medicine, animal abuse or neglect, human negligence, ingesting any poison or allergen, chemicals or tangible property which is dangerous for a dog of any size or breed, or other similar occurrence, including medical malpractice. Accidental injury includes (i) being exposed to extreme heat or cold, (ii) malnutrition or dehydration resulting from a lack of food or water.

Euthanasia” includes the death of your Registered Pet with your consent through any method related to an Accidental Injury to your Registered Pet.

Missing” means that after you engage in a reasonable search for your Registered Pet, your pet cannot be located or found alive for a period of at least five consecutive days but continuing thereafter until your Registered Pet is found alive. A Registered Pet that is Missing but later found alive is no longer Missing as of the date the Registered Pet is found living.

e. IMPORTANT NOTICES

LIFEPROMISE™ is not pet life or health insurance. LIFEPROMISE™ is not part of an insurance policy. LIFEPROMISE™ is no replacement for pet life insurance or pet health insurance. Subscribing to LIFEPROMISE™ will not ever result in payment to you for medical advice, diagnosis, care, or treatment provided by any medical doctor or a veterinarian, including, but not limited to, the cost of drugs prescribed by a medical doctor or veterinarian.

LIFEPROMISE™ is a contractual relationship and provides a contractual warranty with limits where we promise to pay you the AGREED UPON REFUND AMOUNT AND NO MORE. There is no other money or value which will be paid to you BY CARSON&BEAR in relation to the Registered Pet. A contractual warranty, like Life Promise, is different than a general warranty or promise. Enforcement of the contractual promise is limited to the terms of the contract.

You agree that the Promise Amount does not and is not intended to compensate you for the economic, intrinsic or other value of your registered pet. It would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damage for loss of your registered Pet before the end of the Agreed Life Span.

No payments are made to cover veterinary, medical, burial, EUTHANASIA, or disposal expenses, even if you are Program Eligible.

No payments are made for accidental injury, terminal illness or euthanasia of your Registered Pet.

Payment of the Promise Amount is in substitution for (1) any other remedies under common law, the Uniform Commercial Code, regulations or statutes and (2) any other remedies which may be implied by law or our conduct, including warranties for fitness of purpose and merchantability.

No special or consequential damages may be sought related to or arising from the life promise, meaning that you may not seek to recover damages or losses that indirectly result from an alleged breach, failure or omission by us in relation to the Life Promise. This includes, but is not limited to lost opportunities, lost pay, loss of employment, loss of travel opportunities, and/or loss of income or revenue.
