A merchant’s breach of this policy is also considered a breach of the HeadQ Terms of Service.
HeadQ may in its sole determination decide whether a violation of this policy has occurred. Such a decision will be final and binding, and any action HeadQ takes with respect to enforcing this policy and against prohibited actions, including taking no action at all, will be at HeadQ’s sole discretion.
