By using the Services you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and promising that you have the authority to bind that organization to these terms. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that organization.

You may use the Services only in compliance with these Terms. You may use the Services only if you have the power to form a contract with myfreefoam and are not barred under any applicable laws from doing so.

We may need your permission to do things you ask us to do with your information, for example, hosting files or images belonging to you, or sharing them at your direction. It also includes design choices we make to technically administer our Services, for example, how we redundantly backup data to keep it safe. You give us the permissions we need to do those things solely to provide the Services. This permission also extends to trusted third parties we work with to provide the Services, for example Heroku, which hosts this website and Amazon, which provides our storage space (again, only to provide the Services).

To be clear, aside from the rare exceptions we identify in our Privacy Policy, no matter how the Services change, we won’t share your content with others, including law enforcement, for any purpose unless you direct us to.

If you require quantities of items greater than that allowed by the ordering system, then please contact customer support.

myfreefoam provides a service that allows a registered installer to register products they have installed for an extended guarantee. The registered installer must indicate in their preferences if they wish Freefoam to send the guarantee certificate to the owner of the property where the installation took place.

If the registered installer changes their preferences at any time, Freefoam will apply these preferences from that point forward. Freefoam will not retrospectively process any certificates registered prior to this change.

MyFreefoam is Available “AS-IS”

For example, THE SERVICES AND SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”, AT YOUR OWN RISK, WITHOUT EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND.

If a revision, in our sole discretion, is material we will notify you (for example via email to the email address associated with your account).
