REFER-A-FRIEND PROGRAM TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Effective as of May 1, 2020
RoC Opco LLC (“we” or “RoC”) is offering you the opportunity to refer individuals, on a non-exclusive basis, to RoC’s products via a refer-a-friend program (the “Program”) as set forth on the RoC website located at www.rocskincare.com (the “Website”).
Use of the Website and participation in the Program constitutes your agreement to and acceptance of the Terms and Conditions set forth below (the “Program Terms”) and RoC’s Terms of Use and RoC’s Privacy Policy, each as amended or modified from time to time and each of which is incorporated by reference herein. RoC reserves the right to (a) cancel, modify or terminate the Program and/or the Program Terms, in whole or in part, temporarily or permanently, without notice at any time for any reason and/or (b) disqualify you from participation in the Program at any time and/or void any of your Reward Coupons (as defined below) if you fail to comply with the Program Terms, RoC’s Terms of Use, RoC’s Privacy Policy, any other agreements between you and RoC and/or any applicable laws or otherwise misuse or abuse the Program in any way. RoC’s decisions on the Program and all matters related thereto are final and binding.
ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION
To be eligible to participate in the Program, you must be an individual who is age 18 or older and a legal resident of the United States. To participate in the Program, you must enter your email address and follow any other instructions on the Refer-a-Friend page on the Website to be given a unique link (a “Referral Link”).
You can share your Referral Link via email, SMS message, other messaging platforms and/or on social media (including, without limitation, Facebook, Messenger, What’sApp, Twitter or Telegram) with any individual who you reasonably think would want to receive a Referral Link and who (a) is age 18 or older, (b) is a legal resident of the United States and (c) has never made a purchase on RoC’s Website (a “Friend”). There is no limit on the number of Friends you may refer under the Program, but you can only refer each Friend one time (i.e., you cannot send your Referral Link to the same Friend at multiple different email addresses) and you cannot refer yourself (including by sending yourself a Referral Link to any different email address you may have). When you share your Referral Link, you must disclose to each Friend the following:
- that the Referral Link can be used within 30 days of the Friend’s receipt of the Referral Link to receive a discount of 25% off of such Friend’s first purchase on the Website;
- that the Referral Link can only be used once;
- the Friend’s use of the Referral Link is subject in all respects to any requirements and/or restrictions set forth herein and anywhere else on the Website;
- that you will receive a reward if the Friend completes a Qualified Purchase (as defined below); and
- that the Referral Link cannot be (i) applied to previous purchases, taxes, shipping and handling or gift card purchases, (ii) combined with any other coupon, discount or other offer or (iii) transferred, sold, auctioned, traded, bartered, substituted or redeemed for cash.
In addition to being a violation of these Program Terms, your failure to disclose the items above to any Friend may be a violation of applicable law.
If a Friend makes a purchase of one or more RoC products through the Referral Link in accordance with these Program Terms within 30 days of receiving the Referral Link (a “Qualified Purchase”), the Friend will receive a discount of 25% off the Qualified Purchase. If the Friend completes a Qualified Purchase, you will receive an email within one day of the Qualified Purchase containing a one-time coupon code for a discount of 25% off a purchase (a “Reward Coupon”). There is a limit of one Qualified Purchase for each Friend. If a Friend makes a Qualified Purchase and later returns or cancels such Qualified Purchase before the associated Reward Coupon has been used, RoC reserves the right to void the associated Reward Coupon.
By participating in the Program, you acknowledge that RoC will send marketing and other emails to you and your Friends from time to time. You and your Friends may elect to opt out of receiving marketing emails from RoC at any time but may not opt out of receiving emails related to your participation in the Program.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RoC hereby grants to you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to reproduce and display RoC’s trademarks and tradenames (the “Marks”) solely in connection with sharing Referral Links with Friends in accordance with the Program and in compliance with RoC’s brand guidelines as communicated to you from time to time. You shall not modify or obscure any of the Marks or use any Mark in any manner other than as expressly authorized in these Program Terms or as otherwise approved in writing by RoC. You shall not assert any claim of ownership to any of the Marks, or to the goodwill or reputation symbolized by any Mark, by virtue of use of the Marks or otherwise. At any time that you are not sharing Referral Links or otherwise participating in the Program in accordance with the Program Terms, you shall cease all use of the Marks. You shall destroy all materials in your control or possession that bear the Marks within 10 days of the earlier of (a) RoC’s written request thereof, (b) your failure to share your Referral Link with a Friend for a period of 15 days or (c) the termination of the Program.
With respect to all patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark and other proprietary and intellectual property rights, including moral rights (“Intellectual Property Rights”), and except as otherwise agreed in writing between you and RoC, RoC shall exclusively own all Intellectual Property Rights which are independently developed by RoC and you shall exclusively own all Intellectual Property Rights which are independently developed by you.
RESTRICTIONS
You are prohibited from participating in the Program if you are an employee of RoC or any of its subsidiaries, affiliates or advertising, marketing or other promotional agencies or partners.
You will have 60 days from your receipt thereof to use each Reward Coupon. Your use of a Reward Coupon is subject in all respects to any requirements and/or restrictions set forth herein and anywhere else on the Website. Each Reward Coupon can only be used once and cannot be (a) applied to previous purchases, taxes, shipping and handling or gift card purchases, (b) combined with any other coupon, discount or other offer or (c) transferred, sold, auctioned, traded, bartered, substituted or redeemed for cash.
You are considered the actual sender of your Referral Link, regardless of the method of sharing such Referral Link, and you must comply with all applicable laws in sharing your Referral Link. You must share your Referral Link in a manner that is appropriate for similar personal communications with friends, acquaintances, colleagues, family members and other non-strangers. By sharing your Referral Link with any Friend, you acknowledge, agree and represent that you have obtained the appropriate authorization to initiate such communication with such Friend.
Bulk email distribution, unsolicited direct distribution to strangers, attempting to damage or undermine the Program and/or otherwise using or participating in the Program in a manner that is not described in these Program Terms is expressly prohibited by these Program Terms and may be in violation of applicable laws.

No waiver by RoC of any breach or default of any of these Program Terms or failure by RoC to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any of these Program Terms shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. If any provision of these Program Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law and the remaining provisions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect.
