These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of this Site and the products offered through it (collectively, the “Service”), operated by [YOUR LLC NAME] (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing the Site, placing an order, or using the Service in any way, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

2. Research Use Only — Acknowledgment
The products sold through this Site are research chemicals intended exclusively for use in controlled laboratory environments by qualified personnel. By placing an order, you acknowledge and agree that:

3. Third-Party Testing & Certificates of Analysis
Each production batch is tested for identity and purity by an independent third-party laboratory prior to release. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting these results is available for every batch upon request — reference the lot number on the product label when requesting documentation. A COA reflects only the identity and purity of the compound as tested; it is not a representation of safety, efficacy, or suitability for any research application.
4. Orders, Pricing, and Payment
All prices are listed in U.S. dollars and exclude applicable taxes, shipping, and handling. Prices and product availability are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to refuse, limit, or cancel any order at our discretion, including orders that appear to be for purposes outside laboratory research, orders flagged for fraud, and orders to addresses or jurisdictions where shipment is prohibited.
Payment is processed by third-party payment processors. By submitting payment information, you authorize us and our payment processors to charge the provided payment method for the amounts indicated at checkout.
5. Shipping
