Terms of Service

Last Updated: August 28, 2026

OVERVIEW

Welcome to Kava Republic. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Kava Republic website, online store, and related services.

The terms “Kava Republic,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Kava Republic Inc.

Kava Republic operates this website and online store, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and services (collectively, the “Services”) to provide customers with access to our products and online shopping experience.

Our store is powered by Shopify, which provides the technology that enables us to operate the Services.

By accessing, browsing, or using the Services, or by purchasing products from us, you agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, our Cookies Policy, our Your Privacy Choices policy, and any other policies referenced on our website.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not access or use the Services.

SECTION 1 — ELIGIBILITY AND USE OF THE SERVICES

By using the Services or purchasing products from us, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in the jurisdiction where you reside and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

You may not use the Services if doing so would violate applicable federal, state, local, or other laws or regulations.

You agree to provide information that is accurate, current, and complete when you place an order or otherwise provide information to us.

We do not provide customer accounts or login functionality at this time. If we introduce account functionality in the future, additional terms may apply.

SECTION 2 — OUR PRODUCTS

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, photographs, ingredients, specifications, and other information displayed on our website are accurate and up to date.

However, product appearance, color, packaging, labeling, and other characteristics may vary from images or descriptions displayed online.

We reserve the right to:

  • Change product descriptions or information;

  • Modify or discontinue products;

  • Limit quantities available for purchase;

  • Restrict sales to particular individuals, geographic areas, or jurisdictions; and

  • Correct errors or inaccuracies in product information.

Nothing on our website should be understood as a guarantee that a product will produce a particular result.

Kava Products

Our products may contain kava or other botanical ingredients.

Information provided on our website about our products is provided for general informational purposes and is not intended to constitute medical, health, or professional advice.

Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition unless expressly stated otherwise in accordance with applicable law.

You are responsible for reviewing product ingredients, warnings, labeling, and other product information before purchasing or using a product.

If you have questions about whether a product is appropriate for you, including questions relating to medications, medical conditions, pregnancy, or other health circumstances, consult an appropriately qualified healthcare professional before using the product.

You are also responsible for determining whether the purchase, possession, shipment, or use of a product is permitted under the laws applicable to you.

SECTION 3 — ORDERS AND ACCEPTANCE

When you place an order through our website, you are submitting an offer to purchase the products in your order.

Receipt of an order confirmation does not necessarily mean that we have accepted your order. We reserve the right to accept, decline, limit, or cancel any order at our discretion, subject to applicable law.

An order is accepted when we confirm acceptance or otherwise process the order for fulfillment.

We may decline or cancel an order for reasons including, but not limited to:

  • Product availability;

  • Pricing or product-description errors;

  • Suspected fraud or unauthorized transactions;

  • Shipping restrictions;

  • Legal or regulatory restrictions;

  • Quantity limitations;

  • Incorrect customer information; or

  • Other circumstances affecting our ability to fulfill the order.

If we cancel or modify an order after you have submitted it, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you using the contact information provided with the order.

If payment has already been processed for an order that we cancel, we will issue an appropriate refund.

Your purchases are subject to our applicable Refund Policy.

Unless we expressly agree otherwise, you represent that products purchased from us are for personal or household use and are not being purchased for unauthorized resale or unlawful distribution.

SECTION 4 — PRICES, PAYMENTS, AND BILLING

Product prices, discounts, promotions, and other offers may change at any time without notice.

The price charged for a product will generally be the price displayed at the time the order is submitted and will be reflected in your order confirmation, subject to correction of errors.

Unless otherwise stated, prices may not include applicable taxes, shipping charges, or other fees.

You agree to provide accurate and complete billing, payment, shipping, and contact information.

You represent that you are authorized to use the payment method submitted with your order.

Payment information is processed through Shopify and/or applicable third-party payment processors. We do not intentionally store your full payment card information.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel transactions that we reasonably believe may involve fraud, unauthorized payment methods, unlawful activity, or violations of these Terms.

SECTION 5 — SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

Shipping and delivery dates provided on our website are estimates and are not guaranteed unless expressly stated otherwise.

We are not responsible for delays caused by shipping carriers, weather, customs, government actions, supply-chain disruptions, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

You are responsible for providing an accurate and complete shipping address.

If a package is returned because of an incorrect or incomplete address, refusal of delivery, or other circumstances attributable to the customer, additional shipping charges may apply.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, risk of loss for products generally passes to you when the products are delivered to the carrier for shipment.

Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you may have under applicable law concerning delivery, defective products, or other consumer protections.

SECTION 6 — RETURNS, REFUNDS, AND EXCHANGES

Returns, refunds, and exchanges are governed by our Refund Policy.

Please review that policy before placing an order.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to limit any non-waivable rights or remedies provided to you under applicable law.

SECTION 7 — INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
