BATTEN INC. TERMS OF USE
1. Overview
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the services provided by Batten Inc. (“Batten,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), including our websites (such as batten.shop, battensafe.com, and related properties), mobile or web applications, and any other digital products or services referencing these Terms (collectively, the “Services”).
By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
These Terms include a binding arbitration clause and class action waiver (see Section 13).
2. Account Registration and Security
Certain features may require an account. You are responsible for maintaining accurate information, keeping credentials confidential, and notifying us immediately at hello@battensafe.com if you suspect unauthorized access.
You are liable for all activity on your account.
3. Marketplace Model
Batten operates as a marketplace platform, connecting users with third-party sellers offering safety, security, and emergency products.
Batten does not manufacture, warehouse, or directly sell most products listed.
-
Purchases made on partner brand websites are subject to those brands’ policies.
-
Purchases made through Shopify Collective on batten.shop are processed by Batten but fulfilled by the brand partner, whose return and refund policy applies.
We may earn affiliate commissions when users make purchases through partner links. Compensation does not influence our product recommendations or reviews.
Batten is not the merchant or seller of record for third-party products and disclaims all responsibility for fulfillment, shipping, or product performance.
4. Prohibited Conduct
You may use the Services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You may not:
-
Violate applicable laws, infringe intellectual property rights, or distribute harmful code.
-
Reverse engineer, scrape, or misuse data from the Services.
-
Circumvent access controls or use the Services for fraudulent, deceptive, or malicious activity.
5. Content and Intellectual Property
All content on the Services — including text, logos, images, graphics, and code — is the property of Batten Inc. or its licensors. You may not reproduce or distribute it without permission.
User-generated content (“Your Content”) remains yours, but you grant Batten a perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, display, and adapt it in connection with the Services.
We respect intellectual property rights and comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Copyright complaints can be directed to hello@battensafe.com.

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Services without notice. We are not liable for interruptions or downtime.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Services and all products are provided “as is” and “as available.”
Batten disclaims all express or implied warranties, including merchantability, non-infringement, and fitness for a particular purpose.
We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.
