Terms of service
Meraki Movement’s Terms of Service can be refined by adding Canada‑specific references (CASL, PIPEDA), clarifying governing law/jurisdiction, and embedding clear SMS consent, frequency, cost, and opt‑out language that aligns with current Canadian SMS marketing expectations. Below is a tightened, legally‑oriented revision you can paste into Shopify and then have reviewed by Canadian counsel.
Updated overview
This website is operated by Meraki Movement (“Meraki Movement”, “we”, “us”, “our”). Throughout the site, “you” and “your” refer to the user, browser, customer, merchant, or contributor of content.
By accessing or using this website and/or purchasing something from us, you engage in our Services and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). These Terms include additional terms, conditions, and policies referenced here or available by hyperlink, including our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the website or any Services.
Online store and eligibility
-
You represent that you are at least the age of majority in your province or territory of residence, or that you are the age of majority and have given consent for any minor dependents to use this site.
-
You may not use our products or Services for any illegal or unauthorized purpose, and you must comply with all applicable laws, including Canadian federal and provincial laws and regulations.
-
Any breach of these Terms may result in immediate termination or suspension of your access to the Services.
Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides the online e‑commerce platform that enables us to sell products and Services to you.
SMS terms and conditions
This section applies to your use of the Meraki Movement SMS/text messaging services (the “SMS Service”), including order‑related and marketing messages. By enrolling in, opting into, or otherwise using the SMS Service, you agree to these SMS Terms, which form part of the Terms of Service.
Consent and program description
-
By signing up for SMS messages from Meraki Movement, you consent to receive recurring automated promotional and personalized marketing text messages from and on behalf of Meraki Movement at the mobile number you provide.
-
Messages may be sent using an automatic telephone dialing system or other technology and may include service‑related messages (such as order updates and account alerts) and promotional messages (such as offers, promotions, and cart reminders).
-
Consent is not a condition of purchase. You can make a purchase from Meraki Movement without signing up for SMS marketing.
-
Message frequency may vary depending on your interactions with us (for example, purchases, cart activity, or marketing campaigns).
Charges and responsibility
-
We do not charge a separate fee for the SMS Service, but standard message and data rates may apply from your wireless provider.
-
You are solely responsible for any charges billed by your mobile carrier related to SMS/text messages.
Opt‑out and help
-
You may opt out of marketing messages at any time by replying STOP to any message you receive from us.
-
After you send STOP, you may receive a confirmation message that your opt‑out has been processed; you will then stop receiving marketing messages unless you re‑enroll.
-
For help with the SMS Service, reply HELP to any message or contact us at info@merakimovement.ca.
Please note that opting out of marketing messages will not necessarily stop transactional or service‑related messages (such as order confirmations or important account notices) where such messages are permitted by law.
Your obligations and consent records
-
You agree to provide a valid mobile number that you own or control, and to promptly update your contact information if it changes.
-
You understand that, under Canada’s Anti‑Spam Legislation (CASL), SMS marketing messages are considered commercial electronic messages and require valid consent, and that we may maintain records of your consent for compliance purposes.
Service changes and limitations
-
We may change the short code or phone number used for the SMS Service and will take reasonable steps to notify you of these changes where required.
-
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for delayed, failed, or misdirected delivery of any SMS message, nor for any errors in the content of messages or any actions you take or do not take in reliance on them.
-
Wireless carriers are not responsible for delayed or undelivered messages.
For information on how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information in connection with the SMS Service, see our Privacy Policy.
Privacy and personal information
Your submission of personal information through the store and the SMS Service is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. As a Canadian business handling personal information in the course of commercial activities, Meraki Movement endeavors to comply with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws.
Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms of Service, the SMS Terms, and any separate agreements whereby we provide you products or Services are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.
You agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to the website, the Services, or these Terms will be brought exclusively in the courts of the Province of Alberta, sitting in or nearest to Calgary, Alberta, and you irrevocably attorn to the jurisdiction of such courts, subject to any mandatory consumer protection laws that apply.
Disclaimers and limitations (refined)
-
All Services and products are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, except as expressly stated in these Terms or required by applicable law.
-
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Meraki Movement and its directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, and service providers are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the website, Services, products, or SMS Service.
