Please read these Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) carefully before using the BookPressed™ website and platform (the “Service”) operated by BookPressed™ LLC (“us”, “we”, or “our”).
Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned upon your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users and others who access or use the Service. By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the Terms, you do not have permission to access the Service.
By creating an account you agree to receive service and account-related messages from us. We may also send occasional newsletters or announcements. You may opt out of non-essential communications at any time by following the unsubscribe link in any email we send, or by adjusting your notification preferences in your account settings.
Some features of the Service are billed on a subscription basis (“Subscriptions”). Subscriptions are offered on a monthly or annual billing cycle, as shown on the Plans page at the time of purchase. You are billed in advance on a recurring basis for the cycle you choose.
At the end of each billing cycle your Subscription renews automatically under the same terms unless you or we cancel it. You may cancel renewal through your account’s subscription page or by contacting us.
Payments are processed securely by our payment provider, Stripe. We do not store your full card details on our servers. By providing payment information you authorize us to charge the applicable Subscription fees through that provider. Should an automatic charge fail, we may notify you so the payment can be completed.
We may modify Subscription fees at any time, at our sole discretion. Any fee change takes effect at the end of the then-current billing cycle, and we will give you reasonable prior notice so you have the opportunity to cancel before the change takes effect. Your continued use of the Service after a fee change takes effect constitutes agreement to the new fee.
Except where required by law, paid Subscription fees are non-refundable.
The Service allows you to create, post, store and share writing and other material — including chapters, feedback, races, challenge entries, messages, and profile information (“Content”). You are responsible for the Content you contribute, including its legality, reliability, and appropriateness.
By posting Content you represent and warrant that (i) it is yours or you have the right to use it and to grant us the licence below, and (ii) it does not violate the privacy, publicity, copyright, contract, or other rights of any person or entity. We may terminate the account of anyone found to be infringing a copyright.
You retain all rights to the Content you submit. By posting it you grant us a licence to host, store, display, reproduce, and distribute that Content on and through the Service, including making it available to other users in the ways the Service is designed to (for example, sharing a chapter for feedback or a message with its recipient). We have the right, but not the obligation, to review and moderate Content.
The Service itself and its original content (excluding Content provided by users), features and functionality are the property of BookPressed™ LLC or used with permission, and may not be copied, distributed, or reused for commercial purposes without our prior written permission.
You must be at least 18 years old to create your own account, and the information you provide must be accurate, complete, and current. Inaccurate or obsolete information may result in termination of your account.
Child accounts. The Service offers optional child accounts that may be created and managed only by a consenting parent or guardian from their own account. Child accounts are limited to the games area of the Service and are the responsibility of the managing adult.
You are responsible for keeping your account and password confidential and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use or security breach.
You may not use a username that belongs to another person or entity, that you are not authorized to use, or that is offensive, vulgar, or obscene.
The Service and its original content, features and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of BookPressed™ LLC and its licensors, protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Our trademarks and trade dress may not be used without our prior written consent.
The Service may contain links to third-party sites or services that we do not own or control. BookPressed™ LLC is not responsible for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites, and is not liable for any damage or loss arising from your use of them. We encourage you to read the terms and privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.
We may suspend or terminate your account and access to the Service at any time, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including a breach of these Terms. If you wish to terminate your account, you may stop using the Service or request deletion. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including ownership, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability — will survive.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless BookPressed™ LLC and its licensors, employees, contractors, agents, officers and directors from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of (a) your use of the Service, (b) your breach of these Terms, or (c) Content you post.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall BookPressed™ LLC or its directors, employees, partners, agents, suppliers, or affiliates be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including loss of profits, data, use, or goodwill — arising from (i) your access to or use of, or inability to access or use, the Service; (ii) any third-party conduct or content on the Service; (iii) any content obtained from the Service; or (iv) unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or content, whether based on warranty, contract, tort, or any other legal theory.
Your use of the Service is at your sole risk. The Service is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that it is free of harmful components.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so some of the limitations above may not apply to you.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of it. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding the Service.
We may modify or replace these Terms at any time, at our sole discretion. If a revision is material, we will provide at least 30 days’ notice before the new terms take effect. By continuing to use the Service after revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms.
If you have any questions about these Terms, please contact us.
