YOU AGREE THAT BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SITES, PARTICIPATING ON THE TARTE CHANNELS WITH TARTE, OR SIGNING UP FOR THE MOBILE PROGRAM, YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST TARTE ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.

YOU AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOUR USE OF THE SITES, YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE MOBILE PROGRAM, OR YOUR DEALINGS WITH TARTE SHALL BE FINALLY SETTLED AND RESOLVED THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION.

THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IS INTENDED TO BE INTERPRETED BROADLY. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (AAA), AS MODIFIED BY THIS SECTION. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE CONDUCTED USING ONE ARBITRATOR WITH SUBSTANTIAL EXPERIENCE IN RESOLVING COMMERCIAL CONTRACT DISPUTES, WHO SHALL BE SELECTED FROM THE APPROPRIATE LIST OF ARBITRATORS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES OF ANY ARBITRATION ORGANIZATION OR ARBITRATOR THAT YOU AND TARTE AGREE UPON IN WRITING OR THAT IS APPOINTED PURSUANT TO SECTION 5 OF THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.

FOR ANY CLAIM WHERE THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE AWARD SOUGHT IS $10,000 OR LESS, THE ARBITRATOR, YOU AND TARTE MUST ABIDE BY THE FOLLOWING RULES: (A) THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY BASED ON TELEPHONE OR ONLINE APPEARANCES AND/OR WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS; AND (B) THE ARBITRATION SHALL NOT INVOLVE ANY PERSONAL APPEARANCE BY THE PARTIES OR WITNESSES UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED BY THE PARTIES. IF THE CLAIM EXCEEDS $10,000, THE RIGHT TO A HEARING WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE AAA RULES, AND THE HEARING (IF ANY) MUST TAKE PLACE IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK. THE ARBITRATOR’S RULING IS BINDING AND MAY BE ENTERED AS A JUDGMENT IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, OR APPLICATION MAY BE MADE TO SUCH COURT FOR JUDICIAL ACCEPTANCE OF ANY AWARD AND AN ORDER OF ENFORCEMENT, AS THE CASE MAY BE.

THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION. ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT AND REVIEW BY A COURT IS LIMITED.

YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HAVE A COURT OR JURY TRIAL OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR CLASS ARBITRATION. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT BY AGREEING TO RESOLVE DISPUTES THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. ANY DISPUTE SHALL BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY SIMILAR PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE THE CLAIMS OF MULTIPLE PARTIES.

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOUR USE OF THE SITES, YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE MOBILE PROGRAM, OR YOUR DEALINGS WITH TARTE MUST BE COMMENCED IN ARBITRATION WITHIN TWO (2) YEARS AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. AFTER THAT TWO (2)-YEAR PERIOD, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW TIME LIMITATIONS OTHER THAN THOSE SET FORTH IN SUCH STATE’S STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS LAWS. IN SUCH CASES, THE APPLICABLE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS PROVIDED FOR UNDER THE LAWS OF SUCH STATE SHALL APPLY.

YOU AGREE THAT ALL CHALLENGES TO THE VALIDITY AND APPLICABILITY OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISION—I.E. WHETHER A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR DISPUTE IS SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION—SHALL BE DETERMINED BY THE ARBITRATOR. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION IN THESE TERMS TO THE CONTRARY, IF THE CLASS-ACTION WAIVER ABOVE IS DEEMED INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, YOU AGREE THAT YOU SHALL NOT SEEK TO, AND WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO, ARBITRATE CLASS OR COLLECTIVE CLAIMS. IF THE ARBITRATION PROVISION IN THIS SECTION IS FOUND UNENFORCEABLE OR TO NOT APPLY FOR A GIVEN DISPUTE, THEN THE PROCEEDING MUST BE BROUGHT EXCLUSIVELY IN THE STATE COURTS OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK, AS APPROPRIATE, AND YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF EACH OF THESE COURTS FOR THE PURPOSE OF LITIGATING SUCH CLAIMS OR DISPUTES, AND YOU STILL WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO INITIATE OR PROCEED IN A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE ACTION, AND REMAIN BOUND BY ANY AND ALL LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY AND DAMAGES INCLUDED IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER WILL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF YOUR USE OF THE SITES OR TARTE CHANNELS, YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE MOBILE PROGRAM, AND YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH TARTE. THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT INVOLVES INTERSTATE COMMERCE AND, THEREFORE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (FAA), AND NOT BY STATE LAW. INFORMATION ON AAA AND HOW TO START ARBITRATION CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.ADR.ORG. IF YOU WISH TO INITIATE ARBITRATION AGAINST TARTE, YOU MUST SEND WRITTEN NOTICE TO TARTE AT

Once the Referred Customer Code is applied, the $10 off coupon will be applied in the Referred Customer’s cart. Your personalized link is available when you are logged into your account at tarte.com and visit https://tartecosmetics.com/shop/offers.html. Subject to these Terms and Conditions, when your Referred Customer uses your active personalized link to make their Qualifying Purchase, you will receive a thank you email containing a unique code (Referral Reward Code) that can be applied once you add $35+ worth of qualifying products to your cart and enter the Referral Reward Code.

Reward Codes are one-time use only and will not be reissued on returns.

Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") Notice
Pursuant to 17 U.S.C. Section 512, as amended by Title II of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the "Act"), Tarte reserves the right, but not the obligation, to terminate your right to use the Sites if Tarte determines in its sole and absolute discretion that you are involved in any activity that may be infringing, including alleged acts of infringement, regardless of whether the material or activity is ultimately determined to be infringing. Tarte accommodates and does not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to protect their materials. In addition, pursuant to the Act, Tarte has implemented or will implement procedures for receiving written notification of claimed infringements and for processing such claims in accordance with the Act. You may contact the designated agent of Tarte to receive notification of claimed infringement at: or via mail Attn: DMCA Agent, Tarte, Inc., 1375 Broadway, Suite 800, New York, NY 10018.

Tarte respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our users to do the same. If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, please provide the designated agent with the following information: (i) an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest; (ii) a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed; (iii) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Sites; (iv) your address, telephone number, and email address; (v) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (vi) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner's behalf.

electronic gift cards
eGift Cards (which may also be referred to as electronic gift cards, electronic gift certificates or eGift certificates) can be redeemed only online at the Sites. Recipients of eGift Cards must have e-mail and access to the Internet in order to receive and redeem their online eGift Card.

Promotional offers and discounts cannot be applied to the purchase of eGift Cards. The value of eGift Card purchases are not used to determine promotional thresholds. Free gifts, specials, deluxe samples are not valid when purchasing an eGift Card. The use of eGift Cards is subject to these Terms and Conditions and applicable law. eGift Cards may only be used to purchase merchandise on the Sites and cannot be used to purchase other eGift Cards. Tarte will not honor eGift Cards sold by any other vendor or person other than Tarte. eGift Cards cannot be used at other retailers to purchase Tarte products.

When you purchase an online eGift Card from the Sites, we will automatically send the recipient an e-mail within 24 hours, including the eGift Card code and instructions for use on the Sites. The code should be entered onto the Payment Information page during the checkout process. If the amount of the order exceeds the amount of the eGift Card, the recipient will need to use a credit card to pay for the balance of the order. If any online store credit is available to the recipient, then the store credit will automatically be applied first.

Except as required by law, eGift Cards are not redeemable for cash. eGift Cards purchased by our customers do not expire and are not subject to any fees or charges. If we issue promotional eGift Cards or coupon codes in the future as a benefit to the members of our loyalty program, or otherwise, those promotional eGift Cards or coupon codes may be subject to an expiration date.

You can use one eGift Card towards the purchase of your order. Redemption of multiple eGift Cards for one order is not available at this time.

If you misplace or delete your eGift Card, send an e-mail to our Customer Service department and we will resend the redemption code for the eGift Card to the original recipient address. Please remember to include the recipient e-mail address and/or the order number with which it was purchased. If you sent the eGift Card to the wrong e-mail address, please contact us at [email protected] or +1 646-971-2676. Our representatives will only be able to resend your eGift to a different recipient if it has not been redeemed.

Promotional eGift Cards and coupons cannot be resent or recovered if deleted.

If your eGift Card code is valid and unredeemed but not functional, our sole obligation will be to replace the eGift Card.

eGift Cards that have already been sent but have not yet been redeemed can be returned to the original purchaser's credit card. The eGift Card is automatically cancelled upon the return. Please note that we cannot recall an eGift Card e-mail after it has been sent.

If the merchandise purchased with an eGift Card is returned, an online store credit will be issued to the gift recipient for the full amount of the merchandise return. Tarte does not offer exchanges or cash refunds for eGift Card purchases. Any funds charged to a credit card will be automatically credited to the same card. In addition to any other remedies, Tarte reserves the right to close your account or require an alternative form of payment if a fraudulently obtained eGift Card is presented for redemption.
