Terms of Sale

PAYMENT AND BILLING INFORMATION

By providing a credit card or other payment method that we accept, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the designated payment method and that you authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge your payment method for the total amount of your purchase (including any applicable taxes and other charges) (collectively, as applicable, an "Order"). If the payment method cannot be verified, is invalid or is otherwise not acceptable, your Order may be suspended or cancelled. You must resolve any payment method problems in order for us to proceed with your Order. If you want to change or update your payment method information, you can do so at any time by calling you’re the Vivo Health Mail Order pharmacy or by logging on to your account. If a payment is not successfully settled and you do not edit your payment method information or cancel your Order, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and, with respect to your Order, authorize us to continue billing the payment method, as it may be updated.

In some cases, we (or our third party payment processor) may authorize or reserve a charge on your payment method. The authorization is not a charge. However, it may reduce your available credit by the authorization amount. In the event that the amount of our authorization exceeds the total funds on deposit in your payment account, you may be subject to overdraft or non-sufficient funds charges by the bank issuing your payment method. We are not responsible for these charges and are unable to assist you in recovering them from your issuing bank.

PRICING AND AVAILABILITY

PRICES, PROMOTIONS AND OFFERS DISPLAYED ON THE SERVICES ARE SOMETIMES DIFFERENT THAN THE PRICES, PROMOTIONS AND OFFERS THAT ARE DISPLAYED IN, OR ADVERTISED FOR, VIVO PHARMACY LOCATIONS.

Several factors may cause this, such as variances between processor programs and changes in applicable Tax rates.
