10. Disclaimers

"AS IS" basis

The Site and products are provided "AS IS" without warranties of any kind, except as required by law. We don't warrant:

  • The Site will be uninterrupted or error-free
  • Products will meet your specific needs
  • Color renderings will match exactly across devices

Limited warranty (decor + lighting)

Most products carry a 30-day defect warranty from delivery as Brōta Riot voluntary coverage. Defects = manufacturing flaws, broken on arrival, or non-functional electronics. NOT covered: normal wear, misuse, accidental damage.

Statutory warranties additionally apply:

  • Mexico (LFPC Art. 79): 60-day mandatory product warranty
  • EU (Directive 2019/771/EU): 2-year statutory legal guarantee
  • California: standard implied warranties under Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act

These statutory warranties run concurrently with our voluntary 30-day · whichever is longer/more favorable to consumer applies.

Statutory rights preserved

None of these terms limit your statutory rights as a consumer under your local law (EU Consumer Rights Directive, CCPA, LFPC, etc.).

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

  • Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the relevant order
  • We're NOT liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages
  • We're NOT liable for delays caused by third parties (carriers, customs, weather)

Statutory rights in your jurisdiction may not be limited; nothing here removes them.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify Brōta Riot, its officers, employees, and partners from any claims arising from:

  • Your violation of these Terms
  • Your violation of third-party rights
  • Your misuse of products

13. Modifications to Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. Changes effective:

  • Immediately upon posting (for minor clarifications)
  • 30 days after posting (for material changes)

We'll notify users via email or banner for material changes. Continued use after changes = acceptance.

14. Governing Law and Disputes

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Mexico. Brōta Riot operates under Mexican RFC (founder = persona física con actividad empresarial registered in México central). Mexican law applies to all transactions globally.

Dispute resolution

We prefer to resolve disputes informally. Email legal@brota-home.com first. If informal resolution fails:

  • Mexico: jurisdiction of PROFECO (Procuraduría Federal del Consumidor) and the competent courts of México central
  • EU consumers: you may use the EU Online Dispute Resolution platform for cross-border disputes
  • USA consumers: PROFECO jurisdiction applies as primary · USA federal courts for disputes over $10K USD under ICC arbitration
  • International (>$10K USD): arbitration under ICC Rules in Ciudad de México, single arbitrator

15. Severability

If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.

16. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, and Shipping Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Brōta Riot.
