Submitting a Return. If for any reason you decide to return a Product that you purchased from our Services or that was otherwise obtained through our Services, except as otherwise described in this paragraph, you must submit a return claim (a “Return Claim”) through our online form (a “Return Claim”), the link for which will be made available to you by email or through your account in connection with your Product order. In connection with your Return Claim, you may be asked to provide, amongst other information: (i) your name, address, email address, and telephone number and (ii) a copy of your receipt or other comparable proof of purchase for the Product being returned. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment of any Return Claim. Following receipt of your Return Claim submitted with all required information in accordance with the procedure set forth in this section, R.TOYS will provide notice to you of R.TOYS’s decision as to whether to proceed with or deny your Return Claim. If R.TOYS elects to proceed with your Return Claim, R.TOYS will provide a return merchandise authorization number and email a shipping label to you. To obtain a refund, you must (1) initiate the return of the Product to R.TOYS within thirty (30) days from the date the Product was originally delivered by or on behalf of R.TOYS to you or your designated recipient and (2) using the shipping label provided by or on behalf of R.TOYS, ship the Product to R.TOYS or its designee within ten (10) days of initiating the return. In order to receive a refund, the returned Product must not be subject to any of the exclusions set forth below.

Refunds. R.TOYS does not take title to returned Products, and risk of loss does not pass to R.TOYS, until the Product is received by R.TOYS. Unless otherwise agreed by R.TOYS, you are responsible for filing any claims with carriers for damaged and/or lost return shipments. Once the Product has been returned to R.TOYS in accordance with this Returns Policy (as defined below) and the return has been received and processed by R.TOYS, R.TOYS will issue a refund to the original payment method used to purchase the Product for the full amount of the original purchase price (including any associated sales tax), minus, the shipping and handling costs incurred by R.TOYS in connection with your Return Claim and any applicable restocking fees. For items given or received as a gift, R.TOYS is only able to issue a refund to the payment method used by the original purchaser. Unless prohibited by law, any shipping and handling charges paid for the original purchase will not be refunded.
Exchanges. R.TOYS does not currently permit exchanges of any Products. This Section 6 (our “Returns Policy”) is in addition to any statutory rights you may have under law. Nothing in this Returns Policy is intended to limit your statutory rights, and R.TOYS may accept returns that fail to meet our return criteria described above in accordance with your statutory rights or otherwise in our sole discretion.
Any sweepstakes, contests, raffles, surveys, games, or similar promotions (collectively, “Promotions”) made available through the Services may be governed by rules that are separate from these Terms. If you participate in any Promotions, please review the applicable rules as well as our Privacy Policy. If the rules for a Promotion conflict with these Terms, the Promotion rules will govern.

This indemnity is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other indemnities set forth in a written agreement between you and R.TOYS or the other R.TOYS Parties.
Your use of our Products and Services and any content or materials provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) is at your sole risk. Except as otherwise provided in a writing by us and to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, our Products, Services, and any content or materials provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. Except to the extent prohibited by law, R.TOYS disclaims all warranties with respect to the foregoing, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. In addition, to the fullest extent permitted by law, R.TOYS does not represent or warrant that our Products or Services or any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free or that access to our Products or Services or any content provided in or with our Services (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) will be uninterrupted. While R.TOYS attempts to make your use of our Products and Services and any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) safe, we cannot and, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, do not represent or warrant that our Products or Services or any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) or our servers are free of viruses or other harmful components or content or materials. You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Products and Services and any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials).

- To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, R.TOYS and the other R.TOYS Parties will not be liable to you under any theory of liability—whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise—for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, punitive, or special damages or lost profits, even if R.TOYS or the other R.TOYS Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
- The total liability of R.TOYS and the other R.TOYS Parties for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Products or Services, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to the greater of $100 or the amount paid by you to use our Products and Services.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU AND R.TOYS TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH WE CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM EACH OTHER. ARBITRATION PRECLUDES YOU AND R.TOYS FROM SUING IN COURT OR HAVING A JURY TRIAL. YOU AND R.TOYS AGREE THAT ARBITRATION WILL BE SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION, OR ANY OTHER KIND OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. R.TOYS AND YOU ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY. NO CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS OR ARBITRATIONS ARE ALLOWED UNDER THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
- Informal Dispute Resolution Prior to Arbitration. For any dispute or claim that you have against R.TOYS, that R.TOYS has against you or that you have, or R.TOYS has, in each case relating in any way to these Terms or the Sites, or any aspect of the relationship between you and R.TOYS as relates to these Terms or the Sites (collectively, “Claims” and each a “Claim”), you and R.TOYS agree to attempt to first resolve the Claim informally via the following process. If you assert a Claim against R.TOYS, you will first contact R.TOYS by sending a written notice of your Claim (“Claimant Notice”) to R.TOYS by certified mail addressed to Infty Art, FZ-LLC, Attn: Legal, P.O. box 769786, Abu Dhabi, UAE or by Support Centre. The Claimant Notice must (i) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (ii) describe the nature and basis of the Claim; and (iii) set forth the specific relief sought. If R.TOYS asserts a Claim against you, R.TOYS will first contact you by sending a written notice of R.TOYS’s Claim (“R.TOYS Notice”) to you via email to the primary email address associated with your Account. The R.TOYS Notice must (x) include the name of a R.TOYS contact and the contact’s email address and telephone number; (y) describe the nature and basis of the Claim; and (z) set forth the specific relief sought. If you and R.TOYS cannot reach an agreement to resolve the Claim within thirty (30) days after you or R.TOYS receives such a Notice, then either party may submit the Claim to binding arbitration as set forth below. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled for thirty (30) days from the date that either you or R.TOYS first send a Claimant Notice or a R.TOYS Notice, so that the parties can engage in this informal dispute-resolution process.
- Claims Subject to Binding Arbitration; Exceptions. Except for (i) small claims disputes in which you or R.TOYS seek to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the jurisdiction of your billing address or (ii) any disputes exclusively related to the intellectual property or intellectual property rights of you or R.TOYS, including any disputes in which you or R.TOYS seek injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of your or R.TOYS’s intellectual property or other infringement of your or R.TOYS’s intellectual property rights (“IP Claims”), all Claims, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, including Claims that are not related to intellectual property or intellectual property rights but are jointly filed with IP Claims, that are not resolved in accordance with Section 16(a) will be resolved by a neutral arbitrator through final and binding arbitration instead of in a court by a judge or jury. Such Claims include, without limitation, disputes arising out of or relating to interpretation or application of this arbitration provision, including the enforceability, revocability, or validity of the arbitration provision or any portion of the arbitration provision. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant any remedy or relief that would otherwise be available in court.
- Federal Arbitration Act. These Terms affect interstate commerce, and the enforceability of this Section will be substantively and procedurally governed by the UAE to the extent permitted by law. As limited by the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department, these Terms, and the Rules of arbitration in UAE, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability.
- Arbitration Procedures. All Claims must be submitted to the Abu Dhabi commercial court (the “ADCC”) and will be resolved through binding arbitration before one arbitrator. The ADCC administers arbitration pursuant to the due process standards set forth by the ADCC and rules set forth by the ADCC, and the then-current version of the ADCC’s Consumer Arbitration Rules, which are available on the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department’s website (adjd.gov.ae), as amended by these Terms as follows, will apply to any arbitration between you and R.TOYS:
- YOU AND R.TOYS AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED, AND YOU AND R.TOYS ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. The arbitrator may conduct only an individual arbitration and, except as described below for the additional procedures to govern if twenty-five (25) or more similar or coordinated claims are asserted against R.TOYS or you by the same or coordinated counsel, may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding, or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.
- For any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the consumer filing fee, and R.TOYS will pay the remaining ADCC fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by R.TOYS, R.TOYS will pay all ADCC fees and costs.
- For all arbitrations where the Claims asserted are $25,000 or less, the arbitration shall be resolved according to the ADCC’s Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes through Document Submission, and for all other arbitrations the following procedure will apply: (i) the arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate; (ii) any in-person appearances will be held at a location that is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances, and (iii) if the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination will be made by the ADCC or by the arbitrator.
- If you or R.TOYS submits a dispute to arbitration and the arbitrator orders any exchange of information, you and R.TOYS agree to cooperate to seek from the arbitrator protection for any confidential, proprietary, trade secret, or otherwise sensitive information, documents, testimony, and/or other materials that might be exchanged or the subject of discovery in the arbitration. You and R.TOYS agree to seek such protection before any such information, documents, testimony, and/or materials are exchanged or otherwise become the subject of discovery in the arbitration.
- The arbitrator’s decision will follow these Terms and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of these Terms, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in these Terms will preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state or local agencies and, if the law allows, they can seek relief against us for you.
- The ADCC Supplementary Rules for Multiple Case Filings and the ADCC Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule will apply if twenty-five (25) or more similar claims are asserted against R.TOYS or against you by the same or coordinated counsel or are otherwise coordinated. In addition to the application of the ADCC Supplementary Rules for Multiple Case Filings and the ADCC Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule, you and R.TOYS understand and agree that, when twenty-five (25) or more similar claims are asserted against R.TOYS or you by the same or coordinated counsel or are otherwise coordinated, resolution of your or R.TOYS’s Claim might be delayed. For such coordinated actions, you and R.TOYS also agree to the following coordinated bellwether process:
- Counsel for the claimants and counsel for R.TOYS shall each select ten (10) cases (per side) to proceed first in individual arbitration proceedings. The remaining cases shall be deemed filed for purposes of the statute of limitations but not for the purpose of assessing AAA fees. No AAA fees shall be assessed in connection with those cases until they are selected to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings as part of a bellwether process. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the initial twenty (20) proceedings, each side shall select another ten (10) cases (per side) to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings.
- A single arbitrator shall preside over each case. Only one case may be assigned to each arbitrator as part of a bellwether process unless the parties agree otherwise.
- This bellwether process shall continue, consistent with the parameters identified above, until all the claims included in these coordinated filings, including your case, are adjudicated or otherwise resolved.
- The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled for claims subject to this bellwether process from the time the first cases are selected for a bellwether process until the time your or R.TOYS’s case is selected for a bellwether process, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved.
- A court shall have authority to enforce this paragraph and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing or prosecution of arbitration demands against R.TOYS or you.
- One Year to Assert Claims. To the extent permitted by law, any Claim or dispute by you or R.TOYS arising out of or related to these Terms or the Sites, or any aspect of the relationship between you and R.TOYS as relates to your use of the Sites, in each case other than IP Claims, must be filed within one year after such Claim or dispute arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and R.TOYS will not have the right to assert the claim.
- Opting Out of Arbitration.

- Severability. If any portion of this Section 16 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, including but not limited to because it is found to be unconscionable, (i) the unenforceable or unlawful provision will be severed from these Terms; (ii) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision will have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 16 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 16; and (iii) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The litigation of those claims will be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section 16 is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 16 will be enforceable.
Any Claims will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Abu Dhabi, except to the extent preempted by the laws of UAE, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of the Abu Dhabi or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. If any Claim is not subject to arbitration pursuant to Section 16, then the Abu Dhabi commercial court will have exclusive jurisdiction. You and R.TOYS waive any objection to venue in any such courts. If your local law requires that consumer contracts be interpreted subject to local law and enforced in the courts of that jurisdiction, this section may not apply to you only to the extent that local law conflicts with this section.
