Terms of Service

Welcome to PawTale!

The terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to PawTale. PawTale 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”).

PawTale is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.

The terms and conditions below, 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, province or jurisdiction of residence, and that 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 products or services we offer, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing information, payment information and shipping information.

You represent and warrant that all information you provide through our store 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 activity associated with your account.

You may not transfer, sell, assign or license your account to another person.

SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS

We make every effort to provide accurate representations of our products and services in our online store.

However, product colors, appearance, dimensions, placement or other visual details may differ slightly from how they appear on your screen due to device settings, display configuration, production methods or materials.

Many PawTale products are personalized using photos, names, text or other information supplied by the customer. Final personalized products may vary slightly from digital previews, mockups or product images.

We do not warrant that the appearance or quality of any product or service purchased by you will exactly match how it is 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 the quantities of any products offered to any person, geographic region or jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis.

SECTION 3 - PERSONALIZED CONTENT

Certain PawTale products require customers to upload photos, images, names, dates, text or other personalization information.

By submitting personalization content, you represent and warrant that:

  • You own the content or have permission to use it.
  • Your content does not violate any copyright, trademark, privacy or other third-party rights.
  • The information you provide is accurate and appropriate for the product ordered.

You are responsible for reviewing all personalization details before submitting your order.

PawTale is not responsible for errors resulting from incorrect spelling, incorrect dates, low-quality images or other inaccurate information supplied by the customer.

We reserve the right to refuse personalization content that we reasonably determine to be unlawful, offensive, infringing or otherwise inappropriate.

SECTION 4 - ORDERS

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase.

PawTale reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at its discretion.

Your order is not accepted until PawTale confirms acceptance. We must receive and process your payment before your order is accepted.

Please review your order carefully before submitting it, particularly all personalization details, as PawTale may be unable to accommodate changes or cancellation requests after 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 when the order was placed.

Your purchases are subject to returns, refunds or exchanges solely in accordance with our Refund Policy.

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

SECTION 5 - PRICES 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 shown in your order confirmation.

Unless otherwise expressly stated, posted prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, customs duties or import charges.

Prices shown in our online store may differ from prices available through third-party websites, marketplaces, promotions or other sales channels.

We may offer promotions from time to time that are governed by separate terms and conditions.

If there is a conflict between the terms of a promotion and these Terms of Service, the promotional terms will govern.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made through our store.

You agree to promptly update your information, including your email address, credit card details and expiration dates, so that we can complete transactions and contact you when necessary.

You represent and warrant that:

  2. You are authorized to use the selected payment method.
  3. Charges incurred by you will be honored by your payment provider.
  4. You will pay all charges incurred at the posted prices, including applicable shipping, handling and taxes.

Shipping times begin after the processing period has been completed.

All delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed.

PawTale is not responsible for delays caused by shipping carriers, customs processing, weather, holidays, incorrect delivery information or other events outside our reasonable control.

Once an order has been transferred to the shipping carrier, delivery is subject to the carrier’s operations and procedures.

Where permitted by applicable law, title and risk of loss may pass to you once the product is transferred to the carrier.
