Terms & Conditions

Rules governing access to and purchases from Second Signet LLC

Effective date: September 14, 2026

Research Use Only

All products offered by Second Signet LLC are intended exclusively for legitimate in vitro laboratory, analytical, and scientific research. Products are not intended for human or animal use, consumption, administration, injection, diagnosis, treatment, mitigation, cure, or prevention of any disease or medical condition.

Products are not offered as medications, compounded preparations, dietary supplements, cosmetics, foods, medical devices, veterinary products, or consumer products. Nothing on this website constitutes medical, veterinary, prescribing, dosing, reconstitution, treatment, or administration advice.

1. Acceptance of These Terms

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern access to secondsignet.com (“Website”) and purchases from Second Signet LLC (“Second Signet,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By accessing the Website, creating an account, or placing an order, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy, Shipping & Payment Information, and Return Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Website or purchase products.

2. Purchaser Eligibility and Qualification

You must be at least 21 years old to access the store or purchase products. By placing an order, you represent and warrant that:

  1. You are at least 21 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement.
  2. All identity, contact, billing, shipping, institutional, and intended-use information you provide is accurate and complete.
  3. You are a qualified and appropriately trained researcher or are purchasing on behalf of a legitimate research institution, laboratory, university, or other qualified research organization.
  4. You are purchasing exclusively for lawful in vitro laboratory, analytical, or scientific research.
  5. You have access to an appropriate controlled research environment, necessary equipment, training, safety procedures, and disposal methods.
  6. You are not purchasing for personal, household, clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic, cosmetic, food, veterinary, recreational, wellness, bodybuilding, weight-management, or anti-aging use.
  7. You understand the hazards that may be associated with the handling, storage, transportation, and disposal of research materials.
  8. You will comply with all applicable federal, state, local, institutional, and international laws, regulations, permits, and safety requirements.

Second Signet may request information reasonably necessary to verify age, identity, institutional affiliation, research qualifications, facilities, or intended research application. We may reject, hold, limit, or cancel an order that cannot be adequately verified.

Providing false or misleading purchaser, qualification, affiliation, or intended-use information constitutes a material violation of these Terms.

3. Strictly Prohibited Uses

Products may not be purchased, used, prepared, reconstituted, administered, injected, consumed, implanted, compounded, prescribed, dispensed, transferred, or resold for human or animal use.

Prohibited uses include, without limitation:

  1. Human consumption, injection, self-administration, or personal experimentation.
  2. Administration to or experimentation upon any human or animal.
  3. Diagnosis, treatment, mitigation, cure, or prevention of disease or any medical condition.
  4. Use intended to affect the structure, appearance, performance, or function of a human or animal body.
  5. Use as a medication, compounded preparation, dietary supplement, cosmetic, food, veterinary product, household product, or consumer product.
  6. Use in clinical treatment, personal wellness, bodybuilding, weight management, anti-aging, reproductive, sexual-performance, or other personal-use programs.
  7. Resale, distribution, or transfer for any human, animal, clinical, personal, household, or otherwise prohibited purpose.
  8. Any use inconsistent with applicable law, institutional requirements, product labeling, or these Terms.

Purchasers may not advertise, relabel, represent, or resell products as safe, effective, approved, or suitable for human or animal use.

4. No Medical, Veterinary, or Professional Advice

Website content is provided solely as general research-catalog, product-identification, and analytical information. Nothing on the Website constitutes medical, veterinary, pharmaceutical, prescribing, diagnostic, legal, or other professional advice.

Second Signet does not provide guidance concerning human or animal dosing, administration, injection, reconstitution for administration, treatment protocols, expected health outcomes, or management of medical conditions.

Questions seeking guidance concerning prohibited uses may not be answered and may result in an order being declined or canceled.

5. Product Information and Regulatory Status

Unless expressly and accurately stated otherwise for a particular product, products offered by Second Signet have not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for human or animal use.

The availability, packaging, appearance, labeling, purity, or analytical testing of a product does not establish regulatory approval, safety, effectiveness, sterility, suitability for administration, or fitness for a clinical or personal purpose.

Product descriptions may identify chemical properties, molecular characteristics, analytical targets, mechanisms studied in laboratory research, or other areas of scientific investigation. This information does not constitute a representation of clinical effectiveness, medical benefit, or suitability for administration.

Purchasers are responsible for independently determining whether a product is suitable and lawful for their intended research application.

6. Product Information and Corrections

Second Signet makes reasonable efforts to maintain accurate product descriptions, specifications, prices, photographs, and availability information. However, content may contain errors, omissions, or outdated information.

Second Signet may correct product, pricing, availability, labeling, or documentation errors at any time. We may cancel and refund an order affected by an error, including after an order has been submitted or accepted but before shipment.

Product images are illustrative and may not depict the exact lot, label configuration, vial, packaging, color, or physical appearance received.

7. Analytical Documentation

Certificates of analysis, laboratory reports, and other analytical documents apply only to the particular sample, batch, or lot identified in the applicable document.

Analytical documentation does not, by itself, establish that a product:

  1. Is safe or effective.
  2. Is sterile, pyrogen-free, endotoxin-free, contaminant-free, or suitable for injection.
  3. Is suitable for human or animal use.
  4. Has been manufactured according to pharmaceutical current good manufacturing practices.
  5. Has been approved, authorized, reviewed, or endorsed by the FDA or another regulatory authority.
  6. Will produce the same analytical result in every container or under every testing method.

Unless a specific characteristic has been tested and expressly documented, no representation is made concerning that characteristic.

Purchasers must review applicable product information and analytical documentation before beginning any research activity.

8. Researcher Responsibilities

Purchasers are solely responsible for:

  1. Evaluating product identity, quantity, purity, concentration, chemical form, stability, and suitability.
  2. Establishing appropriate experimental, handling, containment, and safety procedures.
  3. Using suitable facilities, equipment, personal protective equipment, and trained personnel.
  4. Maintaining required purchasing, research, storage, safety, and chain-of-custody records.
  5. Obtaining required licenses, permits, institutional approvals, or authorizations.
  6. Complying with applicable storage, transportation, reporting, and disposal requirements.
  7. Investigating any discrepancy before using, transferring, or disposing of a product.

Do not use a product if its packaging, label, lot number, identity, quantity, documentation, physical condition, or analytical results appear incorrect or inconsistent. Contact Second Signet through the Website’s Contact Us page before proceeding.

9. No Representation of Sterility or Injectable Suitability

No product should be treated as sterile, pyrogen-free, endotoxin-free, or suitable for injection or administration unless that specific characteristic has been expressly tested and documented.

Regardless of appearance, vial type, packaging, analytical purity, or documentation, products sold by Second Signet may not be injected, administered, consumed, or used in or on humans or animals.

10. Orders, Pricing, and Availability

Submitting an order constitutes an offer to purchase. All orders are subject to acceptance, product availability, payment approval, and compliance review.

Second Signet may accept, reject, hold, limit, or cancel an order because of:

  1. Product availability.
  2. Pricing, listing, labeling, or documentation errors.
  3. Suspected fraud or unauthorized payment activity.
  4. Inaccurate or unverifiable purchaser information.
  5. Regulatory or legal concerns.
  6. Suspected resale or prohibited use.
  7. Unusual purchasing patterns or quantities.
  8. Refusal to provide reasonably requested verification.

Prices, promotions, product specifications, and availability may change without notice. Applicable taxes, shipping fees, and other charges will be displayed at checkout when available.

If Second Signet cancels an order after receiving payment, we will refund the amount charged for the canceled product or order.

11. Order Limits and Verification

Second Signet may limit, combine, review, or cancel orders associated with the same purchaser, account, organization, payment method, billing address, shipping address, telephone number, email address, or other identifying information.

We may refuse orders that appear to have been divided among multiple accounts or transactions to avoid quantity limits, verification procedures, or other restrictions.

Second Signet is not required to complete a sale merely because an order or payment information has been submitted.

12. Payment

You authorize Second Signet and its payment providers to charge the selected payment method for the total displayed at checkout, including applicable taxes and shipping charges.

You represent that all payment, billing, shipping, and account information is accurate and that you are authorized to use the selected payment method.

Payment must be approved before an order is processed or shipped. Available payment methods may change without notice.

13. Payment Disputes and Chargebacks

If you believe an order is incorrect, damaged, undelivered, or unauthorized, contact Second Signet promptly through the Website’s Contact Us page so that we may investigate.

Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable right to dispute a charge under applicable law or payment-provider rules.

Second Signet may provide order records, purchaser representations, customer communications, tracking information, delivery confirmation, and other relevant documentation to a payment provider when responding to a dispute.

Fraudulent payment activity may result in order cancellation, account suspension, or refusal of future service.

14. Shipping, Delivery, Risk, and Returns

Shipping estimates are estimates and are not guarantees. Shipping, delivery, damaged-item claims, incorrect-item claims, and refunds are governed by the Shipping & Payment Information and Return Policy posted on the Website, which are incorporated into these Terms.

Title and risk of loss transfer as permitted by applicable law and the selected carrier’s terms. Acceptance or delivery of a shipment does not authorize any use prohibited by these Terms.

Purchasers must inspect products promptly after delivery and follow all applicable storage, handling, safety, and documentation requirements.

15. Resale and Transfer Restrictions

Products may not be resold, distributed, transferred, supplied, or otherwise made available to another person or entity without prior written authorization from Second Signet.

Products may never be transferred for human or animal use or in any manner inconsistent with these Terms.

Any authorized research-related transfer must:

  1. Comply with applicable law.
  2. Preserve product identity, labeling, lot numbers, and chain-of-custody records.
  3. Include all restrictions, warnings, and documentation supplied with the product.
  4. Be made only to another qualified research entity or researcher.

Second Signet may prohibit resale or transfer entirely for particular products, purchasers, or transactions.

16. Right to Refuse or Terminate Service

Second Signet may suspend or terminate an account, cancel an unshipped order, impose purchasing limits, or refuse future service when we reasonably believe that a purchaser:

  1. Has violated these Terms.
  2. Has provided false, incomplete, or misleading information.
  3. Has engaged in fraud or payment abuse.
  4. Is purchasing for resale without authorization.
  5. Intends to use or transfer products for a prohibited purpose.
  6. Presents a legal, regulatory, safety, reputational, or business risk.

Termination does not eliminate obligations concerning payment, prohibited uses, intellectual property, limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, or any provision that by its nature should survive termination.

17. Accounts and Website Security

You are responsible for protecting your account credentials and for activity conducted through your account.

You may not interfere with Website operation, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, scrape or copy the Website contrary to our instructions, submit false information, impersonate another person or entity, commit fraud, or use the Website in violation of applicable law.

18. Intellectual Property

The Website and its text, graphics, branding, layout, photographs, product names, and other content are owned by or licensed to Second Signet LLC and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Second Signet grants you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive right to access and use the Website for lawful purposes consistent with these Terms.

You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, publish, display, transmit, sell, license, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit Website content without prior written authorization from Second Signet.

The sale of a product does not grant a license to use that product in violation of any patent or other intellectual-property right. Purchasers are responsible for evaluating intellectual-property restrictions applicable to their research.

19. Third-Party Services and Links

The Website may contain links to or use services operated by third parties, including payment, shipping, analytics, website-hosting, and analytical-testing providers. Third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy practices.

A link, laboratory report, reference, or identification of a third party does not constitute an endorsement, partnership, regulatory approval, or guarantee by Second Signet.

Second Signet is not responsible for third-party content or services except to the extent required by applicable law.

20. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE WEBSITE, PRODUCTS, PRODUCT INFORMATION, AND ANALYTICAL DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.”

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SECOND SIGNET LLC’S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A PRODUCT, ORDER, OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE SPECIFIC PRODUCT OR ORDER GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

THESE LIMITATIONS DO NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE LIMITED OR EXCLUDED.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where another law must apply.

Subject to any non-waivable legal rights, disputes arising from or relating to these Terms, the Website, or a purchase from Second Signet shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Tarrant County, Texas.

Before filing a claim, the parties agree to make a good-faith attempt to resolve the dispute by contacting Second Signet through the Contact Us page at secondsignet.com.

26. Changes to These Terms

Second Signet may revise these Terms by posting an updated version with a revised effective date. Changes apply prospectively unless otherwise stated or required by law.

Continued use of the Website or a new purchase after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

27. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Shipping & Payment Information, Return Policy, product-specific restrictions, and other policies expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Second Signet concerning use of the Website and purchases made through it.

These documents supersede prior representations or communications concerning those subjects, except for a separate written agreement signed by an authorized representative of Second Signet.

28. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable when permitted by law.

If modification is not permitted, the invalid or unenforceable portion will be severed. The remaining provisions will continue in effect.

29. No Waiver

Failure by Second Signet to enforce a provision of these Terms does not waive that provision or the right to enforce it later.

A waiver is effective only when made in writing by an authorized representative of Second Signet.

30. Survival

Provisions concerning payment obligations, prohibited uses, resale and transfer restrictions, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law, and other provisions that by their nature should continue will survive cancellation of an order, closure of an account, or termination of these Terms.
