A. Acceptance of Terms and Conditions of Membership
Individuals under the age of majority must obtain prior authorization from their parent, guardian or legal representative to join MYELEMENT and by participating in MYELEMENT, we assume you have such permission. Employees, officers, directors, agents and representatives of Company are ineligible for membership in MYELEMENT. You must read and agree to these terms and conditions of membership in MYELEMENT (“Insider Terms”), as set out below.
EXCEPT WHERE AND TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW, WHICH MAY INCLUDE THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC, Company may, in its sole discretion, alter, limit, or modify the MYELEMENT rules, regulations, Rewards (as defined in Section B below), eligibility for membership, or any other feature of MYELEMENT or may suspend or terminate MYELEMENT at any time in its sole discretion, without giving you prior notice.

B. Principle of MYELEMENT
As a MYELEMENT member, you can earn MYELEMENT points (“Points”) by (i) purchasing Company brand merchandise and eligible third-party merchandise as determined by Company in its sole discretion (excludes the purchase of e-gift cards, gift cards, and/or shipping) on the Sites and at Stores; and (ii) participating in Point-earning activities offered by Company from time to time (e.g., double Points Tuesdays, responding to a survey, etc.).

C. Membership in MYELEMENT
To join MYELEMENT, simply ask about it at one of our Stores or join online on the Sites. You must create an online user account in order to participate in MYELEMENT.

At any time, you may opt out of marketing emails, transactional emails, or both.
