TABLE OF CONTENTS
REFER FRIENDS AND FAMILY PROGRAM
Candid’s friends and family program offers the chance to receive a $100 e-gift card for individuals you refer who purchase aligners from Candid (a “Friend Purchase, as further defined below). This program is limited to a maximum of five (5) such purchases in any year. (You may invite more than five (5) individuals to participate, but you will receive e-gift cards for a maximum of five (5) Friend Purchases.)
It works like this – you sign up for this program separately through a third party, “Friendbuy”. (Any information you provide to Friendbuy may not be protected by privacy laws, and could be used by Friendbuy for other purposes in accordance with their terms and conditions.) You will be provided a code or link that is unique to you that you can provide to individuals whom you know, who you believe would be interested in trying Candid (an “Invited Friend”).
The Invited Friend whom you invite will be offered a discount on Candid aligners (currently $100, but subject to change). If the Invited Friend goes through the full process to (i) obtain a treatment plan, (ii) purchase aligners, and (iii) receive aligners, that is a “Friend Purchase”. For each Friend Purchase referred by you through the program (up to a maximum of five (5) in any year) Candid will send you a $100 e-gift card. You should receive the e-gift card within approximately fifteen (15) days of the date that the Invited Friend receives their aligner shipment.
This program is limited to individuals only, not businesses. All individuals referring friends must be 18 years of age or older. Gift card recipients are responsible for the payment of any and all taxes in connection with the receipt of the card. You agree that you will only invite individuals whom you know personally, and that you will not distribute your code or link through mass distributions or “SPAM”. You agree to comply with all laws that limit the distribution of commercial or marketing messages.
This program may be changed or terminated by Candid at any time in its sole discretion. Any invitations not used by an Invited Friend at the time of termination shall be void. Your participation in the program may be terminated by Candid (or by Friendbuy) if you breach any terms and conditions of either Candid or Friendbuy, or if your participation in any way violates applicable law.
APRIL 2020 REFERRAL PROMOTION
If you refer a friend from April 17-30 2020 using our refer a friend program, and your friend (i) gets a scan at one of our Studios or submits a completed starter kit, and (ii) orders aligners before June 15, 2020, you will receive a $100 e-gift card for each friend, up to a total of three (3). Any person who receives at least one $100 gift card through this program will be entered to win a $1000 Amazon gift card, with a random (only one entry per person, regardless of the number of gift cards issued) winner to be selected on or after 6/15. All other terms of the Refer Friends and Family Program continue to apply.
GIFT CARDS
Candid may sell gift cards that can be used by gift recipients to obtain services. The cards are issued by Candid Care Co. and the codes imprinted on each card can be used to obtain one standard treatment by a customer (including scan or impression; treatment planning and aligners; customer support), including any applicable sales tax. Gift cards are not redeemable for cash or other consideration, or any other product or service. If the gift card is not used within one (1) year of the date of purchase, the purchaser will receive a full refund of the purchase price and the codes will cease to be valid. If for any reason the recipient is not eligible to be treated (for example, oral health issues prevent treatment) the purchaser will receive a full refund of the purchase price and the codes will cease to be valid. Candid's general terms and conditions apply (see www.candidco.com). The purchase price of gift cards is currently $1,900. Gift cards are not transferable to any person other than the gift recipient registered with Candid by the purchaser. Candid may change the purchase price in the future, but a change in the price in the future shall not affect the services included in an already-sold gift card.
