QuickSika Credits may be subject to additional conditions and restrictions as will be disclosed to You upon receipt of the Credits. Credits may be voided in the event of fraud, misuse, or violation of these Terms. QuickSika reserves the right to modify or cancel the QuickSika Credits program at any time.
