Terms of Use — Sokai Sciences

Last updated: [Month] [Day], 2026

This is a starting-point draft, not a substitute for legal review. Bracketed placeholders need your actual entity and policy details before this goes live — particularly the governing-law state, shipping, and returns sections, which are written generically here.

Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of this website, operated by Sokai Sciences LLC ("Sokai Sciences," "we," "us"). By using this site or placing an order, you agree to these terms.

Eligibility

You must be at least 21 years old to purchase from this site. By placing an order, you certify that you are acquiring products solely for laboratory research use by a qualified professional or institution — not for personal, human, or veterinary consumption.

Research Use Only

All products sold on this site are intended for laboratory and research use only. They are not drugs, dietary supplements, or cosmetics, have not been evaluated by the FDA, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. We do not provide dosing, administration, or reconstitution instructions, and nothing on this site should be interpreted as medical advice or a recommendation for human use.

Orders & Payment

Placing an order is an offer to purchase, which we may accept or decline. Prices are listed in U.S. dollars and may change without notice. [Describe current payment process — as of this draft, orders are recorded and payment is completed as a manual follow-up step until a payment processor is connected; update this section once that's live.]

Shipping

[Describe shipping carriers, timelines, and any restricted destinations once finalized. Placeholder.]

Returns & Refunds

[Describe your actual returns/refunds policy — e.g., unopened products only, claim window for damaged or incorrect shipments, how refunds are issued. Placeholder — draft with your own policy before publishing.]

Reselling products as a drug, supplement, or cosmetic.
Making medical, therapeutic, or health claims about our products.
Purchasing on behalf of, or providing products to, anyone who has not agreed to these terms.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sokai Sciences is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of this site or our products, including any use outside the research purpose for which they are sold.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Sokai Sciences harmless from any claim arising from your misuse of our products or violation of these terms, including any use inconsistent with the research-use certification you provide at checkout.

Governing Law
