PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. BY PARTICIPATING IN THE DC CREW LOYALTY PROGRAM, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL TERMS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND ALL TERMS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THESE TERMS, YOU CANNOT PARTICIPATE IN DC CREW. 

The DC Crew loyalty program (hereinafter “DC Crew”) is a customer loyalty program offered by Boardriders, Inc. (“Boardriders,” “Company,” “we” or “us”) to customers who meet the eligibility requirements described below.  DC Crew is valid online in the United States and Canada on the DC Shoes website (hereafter, the “Sites”), and at participating retail stores in the United States and Canada (hereafter, the “Stores”).  

When you create a user account on the DC Shoes website, you will automatically be enrolled in DC Crew. By creating an account and/or enrolling in DC Crew, you agree (or, if you are under the age of majority, you have obtained your parent or legal guardian’s consent) to participate in DC Crew. By participating in DC Crew, you will be subscribed to receive communications from DC Shoes, some of which may be commercial in nature. 

A.  Acceptance of Terms and Conditions of Membership 

Membership in DC Crew is available to any natural person who is a resident of the United State or Canada, and are at least 18 of age (or the age of majority in the place of residency) at the time of enrollment in the program.  By submitting an application for membership in DC Crew, you represent that you meet these eligibility requirements.  Employees, officers, directors, agents and representatives of Company are ineligible for membership in DC Crew.  You must read and agree to these terms and conditions of membership in DC Crew (“Terms and Conditions”), as set out below. 

EXCEPT WHERE AND TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW, WHICH MAY INCLUDE THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC, Company may at any time, in its sole discretion, alter, limit, or modify the DC Crew rules, regulations, Rewards (as defined in Section B below), eligibility for membership, or any other feature of DC Crew or may suspend or terminate DC Crew at any time in its sole discretion, without giving you prior notice. In such instance, your Points (as defined in Section B below) may terminate or expire. Moreover, Company reserves the right to terminate your account and/or your participation in DC Crew if Company determines in its sole discretion that you have violated these Terms and Conditions, you have more than one (1) DC Crew account, or that the use of your account or any content or materials owned by Company is disruptive, unauthorized, deceptive, fraudulent or otherwise unlawful. 

B.  Principle of DC Crew 

As a DC Crew member, you can earn DC Crew points (“Points”) by (i) purchasing DC Shoes brand merchandise and eligible third-party merchandise as determined by Boardriders in its sole discretion (excludes the purchase of e-gift cards, gift cards, shipping & handling charges, and sales taxes on purchases) on the Sites and at Stores (“Eligible Purchases”); and (ii) participating in Point-earning activities offered by Company from time to time (e.g., double Points Tuesdays, responding to a survey, etc.). Points earned in this way give you access to select rewards (“Rewards”) as determined by Company in its sole discretion. 

C.  Membership in DC Crew 

To join DC Crew, simply ask about it at one of our Stores or join online on the Sites. You must create an online user account in order to participate in DC Crew. Upon joining, you will receive a welcome email with a member number.  Individuals who have an existing user account with Boardriders and purchased DC Shoes merchandise within the past twelve (12) months or joined the Boardriders Club loyalty program through the DC Shoes Site before the launch of the DC Crew Program are automatically enrolled in DC Crew, and participation in the DC Crew Program will constitute agreement to these Terms and Conditions.  Any existing and valid Boardriders Club points earned prior to an individual being automatically enrolled in DC Crew will be converted into an equivalent number of Points.   

In order to get the most complete experience out of your DC Crew membership, including receiving exclusive DC Crew offers, Company recommends that you subscribe to receive all DC Crew emails. You will periodically receive emails from us. Some of these will be marketing emails, if you have subscribed to receive such emails, while others will be transactional emails that relate to your membership in DC Crew. Examples of transactional emails include: the welcome email, account statement emails, earned Rewards emails or other communications that help us to maintain your user account. At any time, you may opt out of marketing emails, transactional emails, or both. If you opt out of marketing emails, you will not be notified of all Rewards opportunities that you would have otherwise been notified about had you agreed to receive marketing emails from us (e.g., birthday offer and special promotions). You may still access your loyalty membership status, earned Points and Rewards, by logging into your account.

You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and shall be solely liable for any incorrect, incomplete or out-of-date information. Company reserves the right to request at any time any document to prove the identity of the person who has joined or wishes to join DC Crew, particularly in the case of two people with the same name. 

Only one (1) membership in DC Crew is permitted per person and email address. In the event of a dispute over ownership of your user account, the registration will be declared to have been made by the authorized account holder of the email address submitted at the time of enrollment. For purposes of these Terms and Conditions, the “authorized account holder” is the natural person who is assigned to the submitted email address by an internet provider, online service provider, or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address. Membership in the DC Crew, Points and Rewards are non-transferable, personal and for individuals’ own private, non-professional use only. Membership, Points and Rewards cannot be assigned. 

D.  Earning Membership Points 

You will begin earning Points over a 12-month period from the date on which you join DC Crew, and will be awarded 100 Points upon enrollment in DC Crew.  You will also earn Points on all Eligible Purchases and participation in other special programs and promotional offers that may be announced by DC Shoes or its third-party partners from time to time.  Points will expire twelve (12) months after they are earned on a rolling basis.  

Points have no cash, monetary or real-world value. Unless a special offer is applicable, you shall earn one (1) Point for every U.S. or Canadian dollar ($1.00) you spend (as applicable, based on country of purchase) on the Sites or in a Store.  Points may be earned in fractional amounts depending on the value of your purchase and will be rounded up to the next dollar. When making a purchase on the Sites, you must log-in to your user account in order to earn Points. When making a purchase at a Store, you must provide your email address of other membership information in order to earn Points on your in-store purchase.  From time to time, we, or others acting with our permission, may notify you of special promotional offers that offer you “Bonus Points.” Bonus Points will be awarded as described in the applicable promotional offer and will be subject to any additional terms set forth in the promotional offer. 

Points will not be awarded on unauthorized or fraudulent purchases, nor will Points be awarded if, in Company’s reasonable opinion, the merchandise or services purchased will be used for resale or commercial use and any Points awarded on such purchases will be forfeited.  Points will not be earned on the following items:  purchase of e-gift cards or gift cards, shipping & handling charges, and sales taxes on purchases. 

No Points will be earned for purchases made on the Sites using the guest checkout option. Any purchases you make prior to joining DC Crew will not be eligible for Points except for purchase that earned Boardriders Club points that were converted to Points as described in Section C. 

Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine and establish the value of Points. In the event of a dispute regarding the number of Points earned by a member, Company shall have the sole discretion to determine the accurate number of Points earned by such member. All decisions by Company with respect to Points are final.
