Terms of service

OVERVIEW

Welcome to belfastbooks.us. The terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Belfast Books 2.0 Limited, which operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services, so that we can provide you with a curated shopping experience (the “Services”). The Services are powered by Shopify, which enables us to offer the store to you.

These Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced here, set out the terms that govern your use of the Services and your rights and responsibilities as a customer.

Please read these Terms carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights, including warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability. By visiting, browsing, interacting with, or using any part of the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you should not use or access the Services.

1. ACCESS AND ACCOUNT

By using the Services, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, and that you have given us consent for any minor dependants to use the Services on devices you own, purchase or manage.

To access certain features, including browsing, purchasing or using some services, you may need to provide information such as your email address, billing details, payment details and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide is accurate, current and complete, and that you have all rights necessary to provide it.

You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity carried out through your account. You may not transfer, sell, assign or license your account to any other person.

2. OUR PRODUCTS

We make every effort to display our products as accurately as possible. However, colours and appearance may vary depending on your screen, device settings and browser configuration.

We do not guarantee that the appearance or quality of any product or service will meet your expectations or match exactly how it appears on the Services.

All product descriptions are subject to change without notice at our sole discretion. We may discontinue any product at any time and may limit the quantities of any product we offer to any person, region or jurisdiction.

3. ORDERS

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. We reserve the right to accept or decline any order at our discretion. Your order is not accepted until we confirm it.

We must receive and process your payment before your order is accepted. Please review your order carefully before submitting it, as we may be unable to accommodate cancellation requests after an order has been accepted.

If we do not accept, change or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you using the email address, billing address and/or phone number provided at the time of purchase.

Your purchases are subject to return or exchange only in accordance with our Refund Policy.

You represent and warrant that purchases made through the Services are for personal or household use and not for commercial resale or export, unless we have agreed otherwise in writing.

4. PRICES AND BILLING

Prices, discounts and promotions may change without notice. The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect when the order is placed, and will be shown in your order confirmation email.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, posted prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, customs or import charges. Prices shown in our online store may differ from prices offered in physical stores or by third parties.

We may offer promotions from time to time, and those promotions may be governed by separate terms. If there is a conflict between promotion terms and these Terms, the promotion terms will govern.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made through the Services, and to update that information promptly so that we can complete your transactions and contact you if necessary.

You represent and warrant that any payment method you provide is valid, that you are authorised to use it, and that you will pay all charges incurred at the posted prices, including shipping, handling and applicable taxes.

5. SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

At the time of writing, we currently ship only within the United States.

We are not liable for shipping or delivery delays. All delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed.

We are not responsible for delays caused by carriers or events outside our control. Once products are transferred to the carrier, title and risk of loss pass to you.

6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The Services, including all trademarks, brands, text, graphics, images, product reviews, video, audio, design, selection and arrangement, are owned by Belfast Books 2.0 Limited, its affiliates or its licensors, and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

The Services are provided for your personal, non-commercial use only. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store or transmit any material from the Services without our prior written consent, unless permitted by law.

Our names, logos, product names, service names, designs and slogans are trademarks of Belfast Books 2.0 Limited or its licensors. You must not use them without prior written permission.

Shopify’s name, logo, product names, service names, designs and slogans are trademarks of Shopify. All other names and marks appearing on the Services are the property of their respective owners.

7. OPTIONAL TOOLS

You may be offered access to third-party tools as part of the Services. We do not monitor, control or endorse those tools, and we provide them “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind.

Your use of optional third-party tools is entirely at your own risk. You should review and accept the relevant third-party terms before using any such tools. Any future features or tools we add will also be subject to these Terms.

8. THIRD-PARTY LINKS

The Services may include links to websites or services operated by third parties. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content, accuracy or practices of any third-party website or service.

If you choose to leave the Services and visit a third-party site, you do so at your own risk. We are not responsible for any harm, loss or damage arising from your use of third-party websites, products or services.

9. RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY

The Services are powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you. However, any sales and purchases you make in our store are made directly with Belfast Books 2.0 Limited.

By using the Services, you acknowledge that Shopify is not responsible for any part of the sale between you and Belfast Books 2.0 Limited, including any injury, damage or loss resulting from products or services purchased through the store. You expressly release Shopify and its affiliates from claims, damages and liabilities arising from or related to your purchases and transactions with us.

10. PRIVACY POLICY

All personal information collected through the Services is subject to our Privacy Policy. Because the Services are hosted by Shopify, Shopify also collects and processes certain personal information in order to provide and improve the Services.

By using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read our Privacy Policy and, where applicable, Shopify’s privacy policy.

11. FEEDBACK

If you submit ideas, suggestions, reviews, proposals, plans or other content to us, you grant us a perpetual, worldwide, sublicensable, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, modify, publish, distribute and display that content in any medium for any purpose, including commercial use.

You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights to any feedback you submit, and that your feedback does not violate the rights of any third party or contain unlawful, abusive or obscene material. You are solely responsible for the accuracy of your feedback.

We may, but are not obligated to, monitor, edit or remove feedback that we determine is unlawful, offensive, defamatory, threatening, obscene or otherwise objectionable.

12. ERRORS AND OMISSIONS

Occasionally, information on or in the Services may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions relating to product descriptions, pricing, promotions, offers, shipping charges, transit times or availability.

We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions, and to change or update information or cancel orders if any information is inaccurate at any time without prior notice, including after you have submitted your order.

13. PROHIBITED USES

You may access and use the Services for lawful purposes only. You may not use the Services, directly or indirectly, to engage in unlawful, abusive, deceptive, harmful or disruptive conduct.

You must not interfere with the security or operation of the Services, attempt to gain unauthorised access, upload malicious code, scrape or extract data, impersonate another person or entity, or use the Services in any way that infringes the rights of others or violates these Terms.

We may suspend, disable or terminate your access to the Services at any time, without notice, if we believe you have violated any part of these Terms.

14. TERMINATION

We may terminate this agreement or your access to the Services, or any part of them, at any time in our sole discretion without notice. You will remain liable for any amounts due up to and including the date of termination.

The following sections will continue to apply after termination: Intellectual Property, Feedback, Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, Severability, Waiver; Entire Agreement, Assignment, Governing Law, Privacy Policy, and any other provisions that by their nature should survive termination.

15. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

The information on or through the Services is provided for general information purposes only. We do not warrant that the information is accurate, complete or useful, and any reliance on it is at your own risk.

Except as expressly stated by Belfast Books 2.0 Limited, the Services and all products offered through them are provided “as is” and “as available” without any representations, warranties or conditions of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title and non-infringement.

We do not guarantee that your use of the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so some or all of this section may not apply to you.

16. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Belfast Books 2.0 Limited, Shopify, and our and their affiliates, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, service providers and licensors will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special or consequential damages arising from your use of the Services or any products purchased through the Services.

This includes, without limitation, lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs or similar damages, whether based in contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

17. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Belfast Books 2.0 Limited, Shopify and our and their affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, licensors and service providers from any losses, damages, liabilities or claims, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of your breach of these Terms, your violation of any law or third-party rights, or your use of the Services.

We will notify you of any claim for which indemnification may be sought, and we may control the defence and settlement of the claim at your expense, subject to applicable law.

18. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the unenforceable portion will be deemed severed from these Terms without affecting the validity of the remaining provisions.

19. WAIVER; ENTIRE AGREEMENT

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

These Terms, together with any policies or operating rules posted on the Services, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding your use of the Services and supersede all prior agreements, communications and proposals, whether oral or written.

20. ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign, transfer or delegate these Terms or any of your rights or obligations under them without our prior written consent. Any attempted assignment in breach of this section will be void.

We may assign, transfer or delegate these Terms and our rights and obligations under them without your consent or notice.

21. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms and any separate agreements under which we provide Services will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws applicable to Belfast Books 2.0 Limited’s place of business, and the relevant courts in that jurisdiction will have venue and personal jurisdiction.

22. HEADINGS

The headings in these Terms are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
