Terms of service
OVERVIEW
Welcome to Useful Finds. The terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Useful Finds.
Useful Finds operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and services, to provide customers with a curated shopping experience (the “Services”). Useful Finds is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.
These Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced herein, describe your rights and responsibilities when using the Services.
Please read these Terms carefully. They include important information regarding your legal rights, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.
By visiting, interacting with, purchasing from, or otherwise using the Services, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy, which is available through the footer of this website.
If you do not agree to these Terms or our Privacy Policy, you should not use the Services.
SECTION 1 - ACCESS AND ACCOUNT
By agreeing to these Terms, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state, province, or jurisdiction of residence, or that you have provided appropriate consent for your minor dependents to use the Services.
To use certain features or purchase products, you may be asked to provide information such as your name, email address, billing information, payment information, and shipping address.
You agree that the information you provide will be accurate, current, and complete.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account credentials and for activity occurring through your account.
SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS
We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate descriptions, photographs, specifications, and representations of products offered through Useful Finds.
However, colors, packaging, dimensions, appearance, or other product details may vary slightly due to screen settings, manufacturing changes, supplier updates, or other factors.
Product descriptions, prices, availability, specifications, and images may be updated without notice.
We reserve the right to discontinue products or limit quantities where reasonably necessary.
Some products sold through Useful Finds may be supplied and fulfilled by independent supplier partners, including suppliers connected through Shopify Collective.
SECTION 3 - ORDERS
When you submit an order, you are making an offer to purchase the selected products.
Useful Finds reserves the right to accept, decline, limit, or cancel an order where reasonably necessary, including because of product availability, pricing errors, payment issues, suspected fraud, supplier problems, or fulfillment issues.
Payment must be successfully processed before an order can proceed.
Please review your order carefully before submitting it. Once an order has entered supplier processing or fulfillment, we may be unable to modify or cancel it.
If an order must be changed or cancelled, we will attempt to contact you using the information provided with your order.
Returns and refunds are governed by our Return and Refund Policy, available through the footer of this website.
SECTION 4 - PRICES AND BILLING
Product prices, discounts, promotions, and availability may change without notice.
The price charged will generally be the price displayed at the time your order is placed.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, displayed product prices may not include applicable taxes, shipping charges, customs duties, import fees, or other charges.
You agree to provide accurate and current billing, payment, and account information.
You represent that you are authorized to use any payment method provided for a purchase.
SECTION 5 - SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
Available shipping options, charges, and estimated delivery times are displayed at checkout where applicable.
Useful Finds works with third-party suppliers, fulfillment providers, and shipping carriers. Some products may be shipped directly by supplier partners.
Delivery times are estimates and are not guaranteed.
Useful Finds is not responsible for delays caused by carriers, weather, customs processing, holidays, supply-chain disruptions, incorrect shipping information, or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Orders containing products supplied by different partners may arrive in separate packages and at different times.
For additional information, please review our Shipping Policy.
SECTION 6 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Content appearing through the Services, including trademarks, branding, text, graphics, photographs, product images, videos, audio, designs, and other materials, may be owned by or licensed to Useful Finds, our suppliers, affiliates, Shopify, or other licensors.
Such materials may be protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws.
You may use the Services for lawful personal and non-commercial purposes.
Unless authorized by the applicable rights holder or permitted by law, you may not reproduce, distribute, modify, republish, commercially exploit, or transmit protected content from the Services.
Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of intellectual property belonging to Useful Finds, Shopify, our suppliers, licensors, or other third parties.
SECTION 7 - OPTIONAL TOOLS
We may provide access to features, applications, or tools operated by third parties.
Some third-party tools may be provided “as is” and “as available.”
Useful Finds does not control every third-party service and cannot guarantee its availability, performance, or security.
Your use of third-party tools may also be subject to the provider’s own terms and privacy policies.
SECTION 8 - THIRD-PARTY LINKS
The Services may contain links or embedded functionality provided by third-party websites or services.
We do not control and are not responsible for the content, policies, accuracy, or security of unrelated third-party websites.
Questions or concerns regarding products purchased through Useful Finds should be directed to Useful Finds.
Questions concerning products or services purchased independently from unrelated third-party websites should be directed to those third parties.
SECTION 9 - RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY
Useful Finds is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services.
However, purchases made through the Useful Finds store are transactions between you and Useful Finds.
Shopify provides technology and services supporting the operation of the store but is not the seller of products offered by Useful Finds.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Shopify and its affiliates are not responsible for claims arising solely from transactions between you and Useful Finds for which Shopify is not legally responsible.
SECTION 10 - PRIVACY POLICY
Personal information collected through the Services is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy, available through the footer of this website.
Because our store is hosted by Shopify, Shopify may collect and process certain information relating to your access to and use of the Services.
Information may also be shared with payment processors, suppliers, fulfillment providers, shipping carriers, technology providers, and other service providers where necessary to operate the store and complete customer transactions.
Please review our Privacy Policy for additional information.
SECTION 11 - FEEDBACK
If you voluntarily submit reviews, comments, photographs, suggestions, ideas, or other feedback, you grant Useful Finds a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, display, distribute, and adapt that content for purposes related to operating, improving, and promoting the Services, subject to applicable law.
You represent that you have the necessary rights to submit any content you provide.
You must not submit content that is unlawful, fraudulent, defamatory, abusive, obscene, infringing, malicious, or otherwise prohibited by law.
SECTION 12 - ERRORS, INACCURACIES AND OMISSIONS
Information on the Services may occasionally contain errors, inaccuracies, or omissions relating to product descriptions, prices, promotions, shipping charges, delivery estimates, or product availability.
We reserve the right to correct such errors and update information when reasonably necessary.
If a material pricing or product-information error affects an order, we may contact you to resolve the issue or cancel the affected order and issue any applicable refund.

We may restrict or terminate access where we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated.
SECTION 14 - AUTOMATED SYSTEMS AND AGENTS
Automated software, bots, artificial-intelligence agents, or similar systems must not access or interact with the Services in a manner that violates applicable law, circumvents security measures, misrepresents automated activity as human activity, or materially disrupts the Services.
We may implement technical measures to control or restrict automated access.
SECTION 15 - TERMINATION
We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to the Services where reasonably necessary, including where these Terms have been violated or fraudulent, unlawful, abusive, or harmful activity is suspected.
Termination does not affect obligations or rights that arose before termination.
Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain effective.
SECTION 16 - DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
Except where prohibited by law, the Services and products are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Useful Finds disclaims warranties not expressly provided, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, and non-infringement.
We do not guarantee that the Services will always be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely secure.
Certain jurisdictions do not permit some warranty exclusions, so some portions of this section may not apply to you.
SECTION 17 - LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Useful Finds and its affiliates, partners, contractors, suppliers, service providers, and licensors will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages arising from use of the Services or products purchased through them.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
SECTION 18 - INDEMNIFICATION
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Useful Finds and its affiliates, employees, contractors, licensors, and service providers from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable expenses arising from:
- Your material breach of these Terms.
- Your unlawful use of the Services.
- Your infringement of another person’s legal rights.
SECTION 19 - SEVERABILITY
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law or severed where necessary.
The remainder of these Terms will remain effective.
SECTION 20 - WAIVER; ENTIRE AGREEMENT
Our failure to enforce a provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that provision.
These Terms, together with our policies and notices posted through the store, constitute the agreement between you and Useful Finds concerning use of the Services unless additional terms apply to a specific product, promotion, or service.
SECTION 21 - ASSIGNMENT
You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent where such consent is legally required.
Useful Finds may assign or transfer its rights and obligations in connection with a lawful business sale, reorganization, restructuring, or similar transaction.
SECTION 22 - GOVERNING LAW
These Terms of Service and any agreements through which Useful Finds provides the Services will be governed by the laws applicable in the State of New York and applicable federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable consumer-protection law requires otherwise.
SECTION 23 - HEADINGS
The headings used in these Terms are provided for convenience only and do not limit or otherwise affect their interpretation.
SECTION 24 - CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to our Services, business practices, legal requirements, or operational needs.
The current version will be made available through this website.
Where required by applicable law, notice of material changes will be provided.
Continued use of the Services after updated Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of those Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.
