By accessing our website or placing an order, you acknowledge that you have read and understood these Terms & Conditions and agree to comply with them. If you do not agree with these terms, please discontinue use of our website.

Please read these terms carefully before placing an order.

1. About American Peptides

American Peptides operates an online platform providing laboratory research materials and related product information to qualified research customers.

Throughout these Terms & Conditions, the terms “American Peptides,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to American Peptides and its website operations.

The terms “customer,” “you,” and “your” refer to any individual or entity accessing our website, creating an account, or purchasing products through our services.

Our website and products are intended exclusively for legitimate laboratory research purposes, subject to applicable laws and the restrictions described in these terms.

2. Research Use Only

All products offered by American Peptides are intended strictly for laboratory research purposes only.

Our products are not intended for:

• Human consumption or administration.

• Animal consumption or administration.

• Medical, therapeutic, or clinical use.

• Diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease.

• Use as dietary supplements, food additives, cosmetics, or consumer products.

American Peptides does not sell products as medicines, prescription drugs, or products approved for human or veterinary use.

No information on this website should be interpreted as medical advice, a treatment recommendation, or an endorsement of any compound for human or animal use.

Customers are responsible for understanding the intended research applications, handling requirements, and applicable restrictions associated with any product they purchase.

3. Eligibility and Authorized Use

By using our website or placing an order, you represent that:

• You are at least 18 years old or have reached the applicable age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater.

• You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.

• You are purchasing products for legitimate laboratory research or other lawful purposes consistent with their stated intended use.

• You will comply with applicable laws, regulations, institutional requirements, and laboratory safety procedures.

• The information you provide during registration and checkout is accurate and complete.

We reserve the right to decline, restrict, or cancel orders where we reasonably believe that a transaction may violate these terms, applicable law, or our research-use requirements.

4. Product Information and Specifications

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, specifications, images, prices, and other information displayed on our website are accurate and current.

However, product information is provided for general informational and research procurement purposes.

Certain product characteristics, including appearance, packaging, labeling, and available documentation, may vary between batches or as product information is updated.

Where applicable, analytical documentation, including Certificates of Analysis, may be provided to support the evaluation of product identity and purity.

Customers are responsible for reviewing the available product specifications and documentation before placing an order.

Unless expressly stated in writing, product information does not constitute a guarantee of suitability for a particular experimental protocol, research objective, or outcome.

5. Analytical Documentation and Certificates of Analysis

Where analytical documentation is available, it is intended to provide information about the tested material and the analytical methods or results described in the documentation.

A Certificate of Analysis or similar document should be interpreted according to its stated scope, testing methods, sample identification, and applicable batch information.

Analytical results do not establish that a product is safe or suitable for human or animal use, nor do they guarantee a particular experimental result.

Customers are responsible for reviewing the documentation provided and determining whether it meets their laboratory’s requirements.

Any questions concerning a product’s documentation should be directed to our support team before purchase or use.

6. Orders and Acceptance

Placing an order through our website constitutes an offer to purchase the selected products under these Terms & Conditions.

An order confirmation email acknowledges receipt of your order but does not necessarily constitute final acceptance of the transaction.

We reserve the right to accept, decline, limit, or cancel an order where appropriate, including circumstances involving:

• Product availability or inventory discrepancies.

• Incorrect product pricing or listing errors.

• Suspected fraudulent or unauthorized transactions.

• Inaccurate or incomplete customer information.

• Shipping or payment restrictions.

• Legal, regulatory, or research-use concerns.

If an order is cancelled after payment has been received, any applicable refund will be handled in accordance with our Refund & Shipping Policy and applicable requirements.

Customers should review their order details carefully before completing checkout.

7. Pricing and Payment

All prices are displayed in the currency indicated on the website or during checkout.

Prices, promotions, and product availability may change without prior notice. Changes will not ordinarily affect orders that have already been accepted, except where correction or cancellation is necessary because of an error or another circumstance permitted by law.

Customers are responsible for reviewing the final order total, including applicable shipping charges, taxes, and other disclosed fees, before submitting payment.

Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers. Additional terms or verification requirements imposed by a payment provider may apply to your transaction.

American Peptides does not control the independent policies or processing times of external payment providers.

8. Shipping and Delivery

Orders are generally processed and prepared for dispatch within 24–48 business hours after payment confirmation.

Processing times are estimates and may vary due to weekends, holidays, inventory availability, order verification, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Available shipping methods, estimated delivery times, and applicable shipping charges are presented during checkout where available.

Once an order has been dispatched, tracking information will be provided when available.

Delivery estimates are not guaranteed unless expressly stated otherwise in writing.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate and complete shipping information. Delays, failed deliveries, or additional charges resulting from incorrect or incomplete addresses may be the customer’s responsibility.

For additional information concerning order processing, tracking, lost packages, and delivery issues, please review our Shipping & Refund Policy.

9. Refunds, Returns, and Replacements

Due to the research-specific nature of our products and the importance of appropriate handling and storage, completed sales are generally final.

Products that have left our facility generally cannot be returned for resale because their subsequent handling and storage conditions cannot be independently verified.

However, eligible issues involving damaged, incorrect, or improperly fulfilled orders will be reviewed in accordance with our Shipping & Refund Policy.

Customers must report damaged or incorrect items within 72 hours of delivery and provide the order number and appropriate supporting information, including photographs where applicable.

Verified claims may qualify for a replacement or another appropriate resolution under the applicable policy.

Nothing in these Terms & Conditions is intended to exclude any rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable law.

10. Order Cancellations

Cancellation requests must be submitted before an order enters the shipping process.

Once an order has been processed for shipment or a tracking number has been generated, cancellation may no longer be available.

Customers who wish to cancel an order should contact our support team as soon as possible and include their order number.

Approved cancellations and any applicable refunds will be handled in accordance with our Shipping & Refund Policy.
