Terms of service

Overview

Welcome to Kogakudo Camera! The term "we," "us," or "our" refers to Kogakudo Camera. Kogakudo Camera operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and order services, to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the "Service"). Kogakudo Camera is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Service to you.

The following Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced herein (collectively, "Terms of Service" or "Terms"), describe your rights and responsibilities when using the Service.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they contain important information regarding your legal rights and cover areas such as disclaimers of warranties and limitations of liability.

By visiting, accessing, or using our Service, 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 the Privacy Policy, please do not use or access our Service.

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 that you consent to any of your minor dependents using the Service on devices you own, purchase, or control.

To use the Service, including accessing, browsing, or making purchases on our online store, you may be required to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide to our store is accurate, current, and complete, and that you have all necessary rights to provide this information.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to any other person.

Section 2 - Our Products

We make every effort to display the products and services in our online store as accurately as possible. However, please note that due to the type of device or device settings you use to access the store, the colors and appearance of products may differ from what is displayed on the screen.

We do not warrant that the appearance or quality of any products or services purchased by you will meet your expectations, or that they will be identical to what is depicted or presented in our online store.

All descriptions of products 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 the quantities of any products we offer to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis.

Section 3 - Orders

By placing an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Kogakudo Camera reserves the right to accept or reject your order at our sole discretion for any reason. An order is not accepted until Kogakudo Camera confirms its acceptance. We must receive and process payment before an order can be accepted. Since Kogakudo Camera may not be able to accommodate cancellation requests after an order has been accepted, please review your order carefully before submitting. If we reject, modify, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the email, billing address, and/or phone number provided at the time the order was made.

Purchases are eligible for return or exchange only in accordance with our Refund Policy.

You represent and warrant that the products you purchase are for your own personal or household use and are not intended for commercial resale or export.

Section 4 - Pricing and Billing

Prices, discounts, and promotions are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your order confirmation email. Unless otherwise specified, listed prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, duties, or import fees.

Prices listed on the online store may differ from prices offered in physical stores, other online stores, or stores operated by third-party services. We may from time to time offer promotions regarding the Service that may affect pricing and are subject to separate terms and conditions. In the event of a conflict between the terms of a promotion and these Terms, the promotion terms shall govern.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, payment, and account information for all purchases made at our store. You also agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers, and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

You represent and warrant that (i) the credit card information you supply is true, correct, and complete, (ii) you are duly authorized to use such credit card for the purchase, (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit card company, and (iv) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including shipping, handling fees, and all applicable taxes.

Section 5 - Shipping and Delivery

We are not liable for any delays in shipping and delivery. All delivery timeframes are estimates and are not guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays caused by shipping carriers, customs clearance procedures, or events beyond our control.

14.4 The Agent must: (i) identify that the request is from an Agent in all HTTP/HTTPS requests and disclose the Agent’s name by including the request's user-agent string: "Agent/[Agent Name]"; (ii) not conceal or obfuscate that the access, use, or interaction is from an Agent, such as by mimicking human behavior or interaction patterns, or completing or bypassing measures designed to distinguish human use from computer use (e.g., CAPTCHAs); (iii) respond honestly to questions or prompts that attempt to determine whether the interaction is from a human or a computer; and (iv) not circumvent or evade measures intended to block, restrict, modify, or control whether and how the Agent accesses, uses, or interacts with the Service.

We do not guarantee, represent, or warrant that your use of our service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitations on other warranties, the above exclusions may not apply to you.

Section 17 - Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall Kogakudo Camera, our partners, directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, service providers, or licensors, or Shopify and its affiliates, be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind (including, without limitation, lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages), whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, arising from your use of the Service or any products procured using the Service, or for any other claim related in any way to your use of the Service or any product, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of the Service or any content (or product) posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available via the Service, even if advised of their possibility.

Section 18 - Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Kogakudo Camera, Shopify, and our affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, licensors, and service providers from any loss, damage, liability, or claim, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of (1) your breach of these Terms of Service or the documents they incorporate by reference, (2) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party, or (3) third-party payments arising out of or related to your access and use of the Service.

We will notify you if there is a claim subject to indemnification, but any failure to notify you promptly will not relieve you of your obligations unless you are materially prejudiced thereby. We may control the defense and settlement of such claims at your expense, including the choice of counsel; however, we will not settle any claim requiring non-monetary obligations from you without your consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). You agree to cooperate in the defense of any indemnified claim, including providing relevant documents.

Section 19 - Severability

In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service, such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.

Section 20 - Waiver; Entire Agreement

The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

These Terms of Service and any policies or operating rules posted by us on this site or in respect to the Service constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and govern your use of the Service. These Terms supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, and proposals, whether oral or written, between you and us (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service).
