Terms of service

Yes. I’d change the store/business reference throughout to simply CDXVII and keep Accept • Root • Grow as your tagline rather than part of the legal wording.

Here is the cleaned-up version based on Shopify’s template. I’ve preserved the substance of Shopify’s Terms, including the Shopify relationship section they say not to modify. I’ve also kept the separate Refund Policy reference because that is where we’ll put your made-to-order/final-sale rules.

TERMS OF SERVICE

OVERVIEW

Welcome to CDXVII. The terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to CDXVII. CDXVII operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and services in order to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the “Services”). CDXVII is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.

The following terms and conditions, together with any policies referenced herein (these “Terms of Service” or “Terms”), describe your rights and responsibilities when you use the Services.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights and cover areas such as warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability.

By visiting, interacting with, or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or Privacy Policy, you should not use or access our Services.

SECTION 1 – ACCESS AND ACCOUNT

By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, and you have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use the Services on devices you own, purchase, or manage.

To use the Services, including accessing or browsing our online store or purchasing any of the products or services we offer, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide is correct, current, and complete and that you have all rights necessary to provide this information.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all account activity. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to another person.

SECTION 2 – OUR PRODUCTS

We make every effort to accurately represent our products and services in our online store. However, colors or product appearance may differ slightly from what appears on your screen due to your device, display settings, lighting, and other factors.

We do not warrant that the appearance or quality of any products or services purchased will meet every individual expectation or appear exactly as depicted or rendered in our online store.

All product descriptions are subject to change at any time without notice at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time and may limit quantities offered to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis.

SECTION 3 – ORDERS

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. CDXVII reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at its discretion. Your order is not accepted until CDXVII confirms acceptance. Payment must be received and processed before an order is accepted.

Please review your order carefully before submitting it. Because CDXVII products may be made to order, we may be unable to accommodate cancellations or changes once an order has been accepted or production has begun.

If we do not accept, modify, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you using the email address, billing address, and/or phone number provided with the order.

Purchases are subject to our Refund Policy.

You represent and warrant that purchases are for your own personal or household use and not for commercial resale or export.

SECTION 4 – PRICES AND BILLING

Prices, discounts, and promotions are subject to change without notice. The price charged will be the price in effect when the order is placed and will appear in your order confirmation. Unless otherwise expressly stated, posted prices do not include applicable taxes, shipping, handling, customs, or import charges.

Prices offered through our online store may differ from prices offered through other channels. From time to time, we may offer promotions governed by separate terms and conditions. If promotional terms conflict with these Terms, the promotional terms will govern.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, payment, and account information.

You represent and warrant that payment information you provide is accurate, that you are authorized to use the payment method, and that you will pay all charges incurred, including applicable shipping charges and taxes.

SECTION 5 – SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

All delivery times are estimates and are not guaranteed. CDXVII is not responsible for delays caused by shipping carriers, customs processing, weather, or other events outside our reasonable control.

Once products are transferred to the shipping carrier, title and risk of loss pass to you, subject to applicable law.

SECTION 6 – INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Our Services, including but not limited to trademarks, brand names, logos, text, images, graphics, product reviews, video, audio, designs, and the selection and arrangement thereof, are owned by CDXVII, its affiliates, or licensors and are protected by applicable U.S. and foreign intellectual property laws.

These Terms permit you to use the Services for personal, non-commercial purposes only. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit material from the Services without our prior written consent.

Except as expressly provided herein, nothing in these Terms grants a license or other rights to you under any patent, trademark, copyright, or other intellectual property belonging to CDXVII, Shopify, or any third party.

CDXVII’s names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans are trademarks of CDXVII or its affiliates or licensors. You may not use these trademarks without prior written permission. Shopify’s name, logo, product and service names, designs, and slogans are trademarks of Shopify. Other names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans appearing through the Services belong to their respective owners.

SECTION 7 – OPTIONAL TOOLS

You may be provided access to customer tools offered by third parties as part of the Services, which we neither monitor nor control.

Such tools are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties, representations, or conditions of any kind and without endorsement. We shall have no liability arising from your use of optional third-party tools.

Your use of optional tools is at your own risk and discretion. You should familiarize yourself with the terms provided by the applicable third-party provider.

We may offer new features, tools, or resources through the Services in the future. Such features will also be considered part of the Services and subject to these Terms.

SECTION 8 – THIRD-PARTY LINKS

The Services may contain materials and links to websites provided or operated by third parties. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy of third-party materials or websites.

We are not liable for harm or damages related to your access to third-party websites or your purchase or use of third-party products, services, resources, or content. Please review third-party policies and practices before engaging in a transaction with them.

SECTION 9 – RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY

CDXVII is 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 CDXVII.

By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that Shopify is not responsible for any aspect of any sales between you and CDXVII, including any injury, damage, or loss resulting from purchased products and services.

You hereby expressly release Shopify and its affiliates from all claims, damages, and liabilities arising from or related to your purchases and transactions with CDXVII.

SECTION 10 – PRIVACY POLICY

All personal information we collect through the Services is subject to our Privacy Policy, and certain personal information may also be subject to Shopify’s Privacy Policy. By using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read these privacy policies.

Because the Services are hosted by Shopify, Shopify collects and processes certain personal information regarding your access to and use of the Services in order to provide and improve the Services. Information submitted through the Services may be transmitted to and shared with Shopify and other service providers, including providers located outside your country of residence, as described in our Privacy Policy.

SECTION 11 – FEEDBACK

If you submit, upload, post, email, or otherwise transmit ideas, suggestions, feedback, reviews, proposals, plans, or other content (“Feedback”), you grant us a perpetual, worldwide, sublicensable, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, distribute, and display such Feedback in any medium for any lawful purpose, including commercial use.

You represent that you have the necessary rights to submit Feedback and that your Feedback does not violate applicable laws or third-party rights.

We are under no obligation to maintain Feedback in confidence, compensate you for Feedback, or respond to Feedback.

We may monitor, edit, or remove Feedback that we determine violates these Terms or applicable law.

SECTION 12 – ERRORS, INACCURACIES AND OMISSIONS

Occasionally, information available through 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 errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or update information or cancel orders if information is inaccurate, subject to applicable law.

You may not use the Services to violate laws or regulations, infringe intellectual property rights, harass or harm others, transmit false or misleading information, distribute spam or malicious software, impersonate another person or entity, improperly collect personal information, interfere with the operation or security of the Services, or otherwise misuse the Services.

You may not reproduce, duplicate, copy, extract, sell, resell, or exploit any portion of the Services without authorization.

We reserve the right to suspend, disable, or terminate access if we determine that these Terms have been violated.

SECTION 14 – AGENTS

This section applies if you use or enable software or services that take autonomous or semi-autonomous actions (“Agents”) to access or interact with the Services.

Agents must identify themselves appropriately, must not conceal or misrepresent automated activity, and must not circumvent security measures, CAPTCHAs, or other measures intended to control automated access.

We may limit whether and how Agents access, use, or interact with the Services.

SECTION 15 – TERMINATION

We may terminate this agreement or your access to the Services, in whole or in part, in our discretion, subject to applicable law. You will remain responsible for amounts due through the date of termination.

Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain in effect.

SECTION 16 – DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED BY CDXVII AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES AND PRODUCTS OFFERED THROUGH THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

Some jurisdictions limit or prohibit certain warranty disclaimers, so portions of this section may not apply to you.

SECTION 17 – LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CDXVII AND ITS PARTNERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND LICENSORS, AND SHOPIFY AND ITS AFFILIATES, WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES OR PRODUCTS PROCURED THROUGH THE SERVICES, SUBJECT TO RIGHTS AND REMEDIES THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED.

SECTION 18 – INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CDXVII, Shopify, and our affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, licensors, and service providers from losses, damages, liabilities, or third-party claims, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from your breach of these Terms, violation of law or third-party rights, or misuse of the Services, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

SECTION 19 – SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, the unenforceable portion will be severed to the extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain valid and enforceable.

SECTION 20 – WAIVER; ENTIRE AGREEMENT

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

These Terms, together with policies or operating rules posted on our site relating to the Services, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding your use of the Services and supersede prior agreements or communications relating to the Services.
