  • Products are not approved by the FDA for diagnosis, treatment, prevention, or cure of disease.
  • Products may not be ingested, injected, inhaled, topically applied, or used in humans or animals.
  • References to purity, concentration, or grade describe chemical characteristics only.
  • Customers are responsible for safe storage, handling, disposal, and compliance with all laws.

Prohibited use and refusal of service

Flash Research may cancel, refund, reject, or refuse any order where communications, checkout notes, conduct, destination, or other information suggests misuse, unlawful activity, resale as a consumer product, or unsafe handling.

No medical advice

Website content, product listings, wiki pages, community posts, calculators, and support responses are provided for informational laboratory reference only. They are not medical, veterinary, dosing, diagnostic, or therapeutic advice.

Limitation of liability

Products are provided "as is" for research use only. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Flash Research is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from product purchase, possession, handling, storage, resale, or misuse.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Flash Research LLC, its owners, employees, contractors, vendors, and agents from claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses arising from your use or misuse of products, violation of these terms, violation of law, or unsafe handling practices.

Disputes

Before filing a dispute or chargeback, contact us so we can review the issue. Any claim must be handled individually and may not be combined with claims from other customers unless applicable law requires otherwise.

Return & Refund Policy

Because research reagents can degrade, be contaminated, or lose chain-of-custody integrity after delivery, all sales are final once shipped.

  • No returns are accepted for buyer's remorse, changed research plans, opened packaging, or storage issues after delivery.
  • Wrong item, missing item, or visible transit damage must be reported within 48 hours of delivery.
  • Claims may require photos of packaging, labels, vial condition, and packing materials.
  • If Flash Research verifies an error, we may replace, credit, or refund at our discretion.
Do not return any reagent unless Flash Research support gives written return instructions. Unapproved returns may be refused or destroyed.

Shipping & Risk

Orders are packed for laboratory supply shipment and transferred to a third-party carrier. Title and risk of loss pass to the buyer when the package is accepted by the carrier unless applicable law requires otherwise.

  • Carrier delays, heat exposure, theft, incorrect addresses, and local delivery issues are outside our direct control.
  • Customers must provide accurate shipping details and monitor tracking.
  • We may assist with carrier claims when available.
  • Customers are responsible for knowing local import, possession, and use restrictions.

Privacy & Data

We collect the information needed to operate the store, verify orders, provide support, reduce fraud, process payments, maintain compliance records, and improve site functionality.

  • Account and order data may include contact details, order contents, support messages, and technical logs.
  • We do not sell customer research data.
  • Operational providers such as hosting, analytics, email, carrier, and payment systems may process data as needed.
  • Ghost Mode may hide customer-facing order history after the stated retention window, while limited internal records may remain for fraud, chargeback, tax, carrier, and legal needs.

Quality Documentation

Flash Research aims to provide transparent batch-level information where available. Documentation may include Certificate of Analysis, HPLC purity data, appearance references, storage notes, and MSDS documents.

  • Analytical values are batch references, not pharmaceutical claims.
  • Independent verification is encouraged for critical research workflows.
  • Any discrepancy claim must include credible lab documentation and must be submitted promptly.

Compliance Screening

We reserve the right to screen orders, accounts, messages, and checkout declarations for compliance. We may request clarification, cancel orders, restrict accounts, or refuse service when misuse risk is detected.

  • Do not ask for dosing, administration, cycling, treatment, or animal/human use advice.
  • Do not include non-research use language in checkout notes or support messages.
  • Do not resell products as supplements, cosmetics, foods, drugs, or consumer products.
