Terms of service
Last Updated: July 30, 2024
The following terms and conditions (the "Terms and Conditions") govern your use of any website or any application (collectively, the “Online Services”) that posts a link to these Terms and Conditions and that is provided to you by Fox Factory, Inc. or its subsidiaries, each of which has adopted these Terms and Conditions with regard to its website (collectively, "FOX," “we,” or “us”) which FOX associates with these Terms and Conditions, and any content, features or functionality made available from or through the Online Services, including any subdomains thereof. The Online Services are made available by FOX.
Depending on where you are located, you may be entitled to different rights or FOX may be subject to different obligations. We have indicated the respective differences below by differentiating according to jurisdiction: if a clause begins with "US Users", this clause only applies to those users who are located in the USA; if a clause begins with “Canada Users”, this clause only applies to those users who are located in Canada; if a clause begins with “EU-Users”, then this clause only applies to individuals located in the EU. For any avoidance of doubt, clauses that contain none of these statements are generally applicable to all users.
We may change the Terms and Conditions from time to time, at any time and, subject to the applicable law, without notice to you, by posting such changes on the Online Services.
BY USING AN ONLINE SERVICE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AS APPLIED TO YOUR USE OF THE ONLINE SERVICES. Please refer to Section 21 for details and specific EU-User provisions.
You also acknowledge our data practices as described in our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions or do not wish to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, do not access or otherwise use the Online Services and you must uninstall all Online Service downloads and applications.
US Users and Canada Users: Dispute Resolution. NOTE: this provision is not applicable to residents of the province of Quebec. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to arbitrate disputes and waive jury trial and class actions as prescribed in these Terms and Conditions.

Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability.

Without limiting FOX’s other rights, FOX may, in appropriate circumstances, terminate a repeat infringer’s access to the Online Services and any other website owned or operated by FOX.
DMCA Counter-Notification. If access on the Online Services to a work that you submitted to FOX is disabled or the work is removed as a result of a DMCA Notice, and if you believe that the disabled access or removal is the result of mistake or misidentification, then you may send us a DMCA Counter-Notification to the addresses above. Your DMCA Counter-Notification should contain the following information:
· a legend or subject line that says: “DMCA Counter-Notification”;
· a description of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled (please include the full URL of the page(s) on the Online Services from which the material was removed or access to it disabled);

· your electronic or physical signature.
Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability.
If we receive a DMCA Counter-Notification, then we may replace the material that we removed (or stop disabling access to it) in not less than ten (10) and not more than fourteen (14) business days following receipt of the DMCA Counter-Notification. However, we will not do this if we first receive notice at the addresses above that the party who sent us the DMCA Notice has filed a lawsuit asking a court for an order restraining the person who provided the material from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Online Services. You should also be aware that we may forward the Counter-Notification to the party who sent us the DMCA Notice.
