Terms of service

Effective April 2025

Welcome to The Perfect Bookshelf. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of our website, services, and products. By accessing our site or placing an order, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.

 

1. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Connecticut, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes arising out of or related to these Terms shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Fairfield County, Connecticut (including Stamford). By using our services, you consent to the jurisdiction of these courts.

 

2. Updates to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. In accordance with consumer protection laws (e.g., California Civil Code § 1723 and Connecticut General Statutes § 42-110q), we will notify users of material changes at least 30 days in advance via:

·       Email (to the address associated with your account), and/or

·       A prominent notice on our website

Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

 

3. Warranty Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

Our services and products are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, except where prohibited by law (such as in cases of gross negligence or fraud).

Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid to The Perfect Bookshelf during the six months preceding the claim, or a shorter period as allowed by law. Some states may not permit certain warranty or liability limitations, so these limitations may not apply to you.

·       Your misuse of our website or services

This clause does not apply to claims caused solely by our negligence or unlawful conduct.
