The Site sells the Uchie Relax Series, a sparkling kava seltzer that is an alcohol-free functional dietary supplement beverage. Please read these Terms carefully before using the Site or placing an order.

Our products and the Site are intended for adults aged 21 years and older. By using the Site or placing an order, you represent and warrant that you are at least 21 years of age and that you are legally permitted to purchase and consume kava products in your jurisdiction.
Our products are not intended for use by anyone under 21 years of age, by anyone who is pregnant or nursing, or by anyone taking medication. You should consult a healthcare provider before use, particularly if you have a medical condition or take any prescription or over-the-counter medications. We reserve the right to request age verification and to refuse or cancel any order where eligibility cannot be reasonably confirmed.

- Provide accurate, current, and complete information;
- Maintain and promptly update your account information;
- Keep your password confidential and secure; and
- Accept responsibility for all activity that occurs under your account.
You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that we reasonably believe are being used for fraudulent or unlawful purposes.
4. Products, Pricing, Availability, and Errors
We strive to display our products, descriptions, and prices accurately. However, we do not warrant that product descriptions, pricing, or other content on the Site are complete, accurate, current, or error-free. Colors and packaging may vary from images shown.
All prices are listed in U.S. dollars and are subject to change without notice. Products are offered subject to availability, and we may limit quantities, discontinue products, or restrict sales to any person or geographic region at our discretion.
In the event of a pricing error or other inaccuracy, we reserve the right to correct the error and to refuse, cancel, or limit any order, including after an order has been submitted or confirmed. If we cancel an order for which you have already been charged, we will issue a refund to your original method of payment.
5. Orders and Payment
By placing an order, you make an offer to purchase the products in your cart subject to these Terms. Your receipt of an order confirmation does not constitute our acceptance of your order. We reserve the right to accept or decline your order, in whole or in part, for any lawful reason.
- You authorize us and our payment processors to charge your selected payment method for the total order amount, including applicable taxes and shipping charges.
- You represent that you are authorized to use the payment method provided and that the information you supply is true and accurate.
- We may use third-party services to process payments; your use of those services may be subject to their terms.
6. Subscription Terms and Recurring Billing
Our "Subscribe & Save" program allows you to receive products on a recurring basis at a discounted price. By enrolling in a subscription, you authorize a recurring order and agree to the following:
- Recurring authorization. You authorize us to automatically create and charge a recurring order at the frequency you select until you cancel.
- Billing. You will be billed each cycle using your payment method on file at the then-current price for the subscribed products, plus applicable taxes and shipping. Prices are subject to change, and any changes will apply to future orders.
- Skip, pause, or cancel. You may skip, pause, or cancel your subscription at any time from your account, provided you do so before your next order processes. Changes take effect for orders that have not yet been processed.
- Processed orders. Once a recurring order has been processed, it is subject to our standard Shipping & Returns Policy.
It is your responsibility to keep your account and payment information current. We are not responsible for orders that fail to process due to outdated or invalid payment or shipping information.
7. Shipping and Returns
Shipping timeframes, costs, and delivery details are described in our Shipping & Returns Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please review that policy for full details.
Because our products are consumable:
- Opened items are non-returnable.
- If your order arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, you may be eligible for a replacement or refund, provided you report the issue within 14 days of delivery and follow the instructions in our Shipping & Returns Policy.
To request a replacement or refund, contact us at sales@uchie.com with your order number and, where applicable, photos of the affected product.

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or your use of the Site are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.
[Placeholder — please review with legal counsel.] Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered in Los Angeles County, California, in accordance with the rules of a recognized arbitration provider, rather than in court, except that either party may seek relief in small claims court for qualifying claims. To the extent any dispute is not subject to arbitration, you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California. Where permitted by law, you and Marina Technology, LLC agree that any dispute will be brought in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative proceeding.
Before initiating any formal dispute, you agree to first contact us at sales@uchie.com so we can attempt to resolve the matter informally.
17. Changes to These Terms
We may update or modify these Terms at any time at our discretion. Changes are effective when posted to the Site with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Site or placement of orders after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.
18. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
19. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Shipping & Returns Policy, and any other policies or notices referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Marina Technology, LLC regarding your use of the Site and supersede any prior agreements or understandings. Our failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of that provision.
