Promotional Products
Terms & Conditions
Updated on April 8, 2025
The following terms and conditions (the “Terms”) apply apply to working with Earthlight for the purchase of bulk and customized, branded orders for corporate and organizational events and gifting (“Promotional Products”). and are applicable in addition to the Terms of Service for the www.earthlight.eco website. Your purchase and use Promotional Products through us constitutes your agreement to follow and be bound by these Terms.
Invoice Orders: Your customized Invoice Order reflects all information for your order. Please review carefully and confirm the shipping address, item info (including quantity, colors, sizing), artwork info and delivery details. No credit will be issued for errors on sales orders after approval. Orders may not be canceled once production has begun.
Incremental Costs: As the project progresses, you may wish to request pre-production samples of your branded item (a sample that is printed with your artwork and is sent to you for final approval before printing the full order), decide to add colors/additional art placements or make other art changes different from your Invoice Order and/or beyond typical one-round approvals that may incur additional costs. Any such Incremental Costs will require your written approval to be added to your final invoice before proceeding.
Artwork: Earthlight uses art, logos and other materials (Artwork) supplied by our customers to provide products and services. Earthlight assumes no responsibility for determining the proper ownership or proper use of the Artwork.
By submitting Artwork to Earthlight for use on a product, customers shall defend and hold harmless Earthlight for the use of any Artwork and for breach of this warranty. Customers shall also indemnify, hold harmless, defend and absolve Earthlight, its affiliates and licensors for and against all claims, liabilities and expenses arising out of or related to any actual or alleged infringement or misappropriation of any copyright, trademark, logo or other proprietary rights or merchandise. This directive will remain in effect after delivery of products.
Proofs: On all orders, Earthlight will send a proof of the artwork, showing the imprint, imprint size and imprint color(s). Typically Invoice Orders allow for one round of proofs and any necessary changes before incurring Incremental Costs.
All orders will remain on hold until respective written approvals are received for proofs.
Please review proofs carefully for any errors. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Spelling
- Missing type
- Copy
- Logo
- Logo size
- Layout
- Imprint color
- Item description
- Item colors
Credit will not be issued for art errors after approval. Since your order goes into process as soon as artwork is approved, we are unable to allow for changes, corrections or cancellations in most cases.
Payment: Typically, 50% of material and printing costs are due to commence project; remaining 50% of material cost + shipping will be billed upon delivery of all final items. You may receive an invoice with credit card payment link or request ACH or wire details.
Spoilage: Certain print vendor policies include a 2-3% Spoilage rate (allows for a 2-3% failure) on all decorated items. Should this occur, Earthlight may request additional replacement product cost as needed.
Returns: All sales are final. Products that are not imprinted correctly will be replaced at no charge. All returns require written approval and must be advised within 10 days of original shipment.
Acceptance of these Terms and Conditions: Your purchase of Promotional Items constitutes acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions are subject to change without notice.
SAMPLE POLICY
We know samples can be important for you to decide if a product is right for your brand and project. And as part of being sustainable, we want to make sure we’re getting it right before producing it.
Initial samples: We can send un-branded product samples, often directly from our manufacturer partners, to you to check out.
Payment for samples: As a small business, we ask that you pay up front for the material sample plus shipping costs via invoice from us. You can choose to return the item to us for a refund on the product costs within two weeks, or as otherwise agreed.
Pre-production samples: Once we have a confirmed order, we can also send a “pre-pro” sample that is printed with your artwork on the item for final approval before printing the full order. Costs for these vary by supplier partner and will also be invoiced separately.
ECO NAME BADGES, LANYARD RENTAL & REUSE PROGRAMS
For our Eco Name Badge and Lanyard options, the same Promotional Terms & Conditions herein apply.
Return Due Date: We request any lanyards and badges under the rental program are returned within two weeks of the end of any event date, as confirmed in client invoices/work orders. Unless other arrangements/extensions are confirmed in writing, Earthlight reserves the right to invoice full cost for any and all un-returned rental items on said return due date.
Return Acceptance & Pricing: Earthlight maintains full discretion regarding the acceptance of returned products. Client agrees to pay the full price per unit noted in initial invoice/work orders for any un-returned items or items otherwise deemed un-usable (i.e. damaged) by the Earthlight team.
Box Shipping: Should a lanyard box used for the return program get too damaged in transit from Earthlight to the event to be reused as planned, client can share photos of said damage upon receipt and Earthlight will credit back the cost of any additional boxes required for return program shipping back to Earthlight.
