Terms & Policies
-
This form (the “Agreement”) sets forth the agreement between you (the client) and Lotus Showroom (the “Supplier”) (collectively referred to as the “Parties”) with respect to the terms and conditions upon which clothing, shoes, accessories, and/or any other products (the “Wardrobe”) are rented to you by the Supplier (the “Rental”). By confirming a Rental, whether invoiced by the Supplier (a “Direct Rental”) or through a third-party platform, including but not limited to Pickle and Louvelle (an “App Rental”), you agree to these terms and conditions all the same. App Rentals may further be subject to any applicable terms and conditions that the third-party platform may require.
Order Details & Billing. Every Rental is subject to an “Order Form” which lists the Wardrobe to be rented, the dates for which the Wardrobe will be out of Supplier’s possession, beginning with the Start Date and ending with the Return Date (the “Rental Period”), and the cost of the rental (the “Order Fee”) plus any applicable fees and charges pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Additional Fees”), including but not limited to Delivery Fees, Cleaning Fees, Repair Fees, Replacement Fees, and Late Fees (each described herein). The Order Fee and Additional Fees are collectively referred to as the “Fees.” In the event the entirety of any Fees due under this Agreement are not charged by the third-party platform for an App Rental, Client agrees to pay Supplier immediately upon request.
Client acknowledges that by submitting an Order Form it has reviewed the details of the Rental and that it is accurate. Payment of the Order Fee is due prior to the start of the Rental Period. Once any part of the Fees are paid or any part of the Wardrobe is removed by Client from Supplier’s showroom, whichever is earlier, the rental transaction is final and there will be no refunds, including any refunds for cancellation. Additional Fees described within this agreement that are applicable to the Rental shall be due immediately upon invoice or request by Supplier.
Pick-up/Drop-off. Client is responsible for all costs, including any taxes, levies, tariffs, and other fees assessed, for the transportation of the Wardrobe, including obtaining items from Supplier and returning them to Supplier. If Client elects to have Supplier arrange and pay for transportation, which Supplier is not obligated to accommodate, Client understands that Supplier will charge a fee for doing so at a reasonable amount determined in its sole discretion, which Client agrees to pay (a “Delivery Fee”). Wardrobe is the responsibility of Client during the Rental Period, including transportation to and from Supplier, whether arranged by Supplier or not.
Condition. Client acknowledges it has inspected the Wardrobe and deems it to be in satisfactory condition at the start of Rental Period. Any damages or defects not disclosed by Supplier must be reported by Client upon receipt of Wardrobe.
Loss and Damage. Client shall be solely responsible for any loss or damage to the Wardrobe while it is in Client’s possession as well as any liability or other cost that may arise in connection with the Rental, whether it is due to Client’s negligence or willful misconduct or not. In the event loss or damage to Wardrobe occurs, Client shall immediately pay to Supplier the replacement value listed in the Order Form (a “Replacement Fee”), or, if Wardrobe can be restored by repair to its pre-loss condition, as determined by Supplier, the cost to repair the Wardrobe (a “Repair Fee”), in either case such fee being inclusive of any substantiated loss of use.
Returns. Wardrobe must be returned by Client to Supplier dry cleaned and unaltered, free of any stains, body odor, or any such signs of deterioration from the state of the items prior to the start of the Rental Period (referred to as “Damages”). If Wardrobe is returned without being dry cleaned or with Damages, Client agrees to pay cleaning fees to Supplier upon return of Wardrobe, generally at a cost of $25 for standard dry cleaning however determined by Supplier on a case-by-case basis and assessed in its sole discretion (“Cleaning Fees”). Alterations are strictly prohibited. Any alterations to the Wardrobe (including but not limited to applied adhesives, stitching, tailoring, dyeing, and cutting) found by Supplier will be subject to Repair Fees.
Late Fees. Wardrobe returned to Supplier after the Return Date of the Rental Period shall be subject to “Late Fees” as described herein. For the first five days, Late Fees are equal to a pro-rata amount of the Rental Price listed on the Order Form. Starting with the sixth day after the Return Date, Late Fees are doubled until the Wardrobe is returned. The maximum amount of Late Fees is equal to the Replacement Value for any un-returned Wardrobe plus any loss of use of such Wardrobe.
Security deposit. For Direct Rentals, Supplier has the right, which shall be exercised at its sole discretion, to charge a security deposit, at the amount listed above in the Order Form (the “Security Deposit”). The Security Deposit will be used only for the payment of any Additional Fees deemed necessary pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Any amount of the Security Deposit not used for Additional Fees will be returned promptly upon the return of Wardrobe.
Sublease. Client shall not transfer or sublease the Wardrobe to anyone without prior authorization from Supplier, which Supplier may deny in its sole discretion. Client agrees to retain the Wardrobe in its exclusive possession and under its direct control and supervision.
Credit card authorization. For all Direct Rentals, Client agrees to complete a credit card authorization form and authorizes Supplier to charge the provided credit card for payment of Fees due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including the Order Fee and all Additional Fees. Client acknowledges and agrees that if it does not promptly fulfill invoices billed by Supplier by any other means, the credit card may be charged for payment, and that such charges may include a 3% credit card surcharge.
Trademarks. Wardrobe may contain the marks, including names and logos, of third parties. Supplier has not obtained consent to use these marks, including where they are protected by federal trademark and/or copyright law. Accordingly, Client shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary consents if any are necessary for Client’s use of Wardrobe.
Warranty. Supplier does not make any express or implied representation, warranty, guaranty or assurance of any kind or nature, written or oral, relating to the products, including any representation, warranty, guaranty or assurance of or as to merchantability, functionality, performance or fitness for a particular purpose, or any representation, warranty, guaranty or assurance arising from course of dealing, course of performance, usage or trade practice, and hereby expressly disclaims all such other representations, warranties, guaranties and/or assurances.
Liability. Supplier assumes no liability whatsoever for any: (a) harm to persons or property resulting from any cause other than Supplier’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, (b) damage to, or loss relating to Client’s business resulting from any cause whatsoever, or (c) lost profits, or other special, incidental, consequential, indirect or punitive damages arising out of this Agreement, whether such liability is asserted on the basis of contract, tort, or otherwise. Client acknowledges that Supplier has set its prices and entered into this Agreement in reliance on the disclaimer and limitation of liability and the disclaimers of warranties and damages set forth herein, and that the same form an essential basis of the bargain between the parties to this Agreement. As a result, except for liability arising from Supplier’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, the maximum liability of Supplier to Client arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be limited to the total amount paid by Client to Supplier hereunder.
Arbitration. Any dispute relating to this Agreement shall be settled pursuant to binding arbitration under the rules of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) before a single arbitrator in California. The prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to collect reasonable outside attorneys’ fees and costs.
Survival. The parties to this Agreement agree that the disclaimer and limitation of liability and the disclaimers of warranties and damages set forth herein, as well as the arbitration and remedies clauses, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and remain in effect indefinitely thereafter.
Independent Parties. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture or employer-employee relationship between the Parties (or any of their employees or agents), and neither party is the agent of the other. Each party is independent to the other and will have no right, authority or power to create any obligation or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf or in the name of the other party.
Completion. This Agreement contains the full and complete understanding between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings pertaining hereto and cannot be modified except by a writing signed by the parties. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts and transmitted via electronic means, and such counterparts (including digital copies thereof) taken together will constitute an original binding agreement. This Agreement will be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California governing contracts to be wholly performed in California.
