Terms of Service
Welcome to HingeKuma!
The terms "we", "us", and "our" refer to HingeKuma. We operate this online store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and services, to provide you — our customer — with a carefully curated shopping experience (hereinafter referred to as the “Services”). HingeKuma uses the Shopify platform to deliver these Services.
The following terms, along with our referenced policies (collectively, the “Terms” or “Terms of Service”), describe your rights and obligations when using our Services.
Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they contain important legal information, including warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability.
By visiting, interacting with, or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services.
1. ACCESS & ACCOUNT
By agreeing to these Terms, you confirm that you are of legal age in your country of residence, or that you have given us consent to allow your minor dependents to use the Services on devices you own or control.
To use the Services (including browsing the store or making a purchase), we may ask for certain information, such as your email address, billing and shipping details. You confirm that all information provided is accurate, current, and complete, and that you are authorized to provide it.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account and any activity under it. You may not transfer, sell, or license your account to others.
2. OUR PRODUCTS
We strive to display our products and services as accurately as possible. However, actual colors or appearance may vary depending on your device settings.
We do not guarantee that any product will meet your expectations. Product descriptions may change without notice. We reserve the right to discontinue or limit quantities at any time.
3. ORDERS
Placing an order constitutes an offer to purchase. We reserve the right to accept or reject any order. An order is confirmed only once it has been accepted and payment has been processed.
Orders may only be cancelled prior to acceptance. If an order is modified or cancelled, we will notify you via email, address, or phone.
Purchases are returnable or exchangeable only in accordance with our Return Policy. You confirm that your purchases are for personal or household use, not for resale.
4. PRICES & BILLING
Prices, discounts, and promotions may change without notice. The price at the time of order placement will apply to your purchase. Prices exclude taxes, shipping, and customs fees unless otherwise specified.
Online prices may differ from those in physical or third-party stores. Promotions may have separate terms.
You agree to provide valid and up-to-date payment information and authorize us to charge all applicable fees. You confirm that you are authorized to use the chosen payment method.
