Last updated: August 14, 2025

Translation: By using this site, you agree to the rules below. They’re short, sharp, and kinder than most receipts.

This website is operated by Careless Couture 
Questions? Email carelesscouture@gmail.com.

Acceptance of Terms:

By visiting the site, creating an account, or buying anything, you agree to these Terms and our other policies (like Privacy and Returns) which are part of this contract by reference. If you disagree, that’s okay—just don’t use the site.

Eligibility:

You must be 13+ to use the site (or older if your local law says so). If you buy something, you confirm you have the legal right to do so (and a card that isn’t “borrowed”).

Changes to Terms:

We can update these Terms at any time. If we make material changes, we’ll post them here (and sometimes email you). Keep shopping after changes = you accept the changes. Democracy.

Products & Availability:

We make small-batch, often hand-finished goods. Minor differences in color, pattern, or finish are the point, not a defect. We may limit quantities, discontinue items, or cancel orders at our discretion (e.g., suspected fraud, pricing glitches, inventory errors). If we cancel, we’ll refund you.

Pricing, Taxes & Errors:

Prices can change. Taxes and shipping are extra unless noted. If we accidentally list something at the price of a coffee, we can cancel or correct the order—even after you check out. We’ll obviously refund any overcharge.

Orders & Payment:

You agree to provide accurate billing/shipping info and to pay all charges. Payments are processed by third-party processors; we don’t store full card numbers. We can refuse or limit any order (one per customer/household/account/IP if necessary to stop resellers).

• Pre-orders / made-to-order: estimated ship dates are… estimates. Delays can happen. You can cancel within 24 hours of order; after that, our Return Policy applies.

• Discounts & promos: one per order unless the promo says otherwise. We don’t do retroactive price adjustments.

Shipping, Risk of Loss & Tracking:

We ship to the address you provide. Risk of loss transfers to you when the carrier marks it Delivered. If your package goes on a side quest, check with neighbors and the carrier first; then email us and we’ll help if we can.

Returns & Exchanges:

See our Return & Refund Policy: most standard items are returnable within the window if unworn and tagged; custom/one-of-one/mystery/sale items are final. Shipping isn’t refunded unless we messed up.

Accounts & Security:

If you make an account, keep your login private. You’re responsible for activity under your account. If you suspect a breach, change your password and tell us at carelesscouture@gmail.com.

Acceptable Use (What Not To Do):

Don’t use the site to:

• Break laws, infringe IP, or harass people

• Upload malware or scrape/snoop at scale

• Impersonate us or other humans (AI included)

• Use bots to buy out stock (we see you)
  We can suspend or terminate access if you violate this section. No refunds for rule-breaking.

User Content (Reviews, Submissions, DMs):

If you post or send us content (reviews, photos), you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, and display it for marketing and operational purposes—subject to our Privacy Policy. You promise you own it and it doesn’t break laws.

Intellectual Property:

All content on this site—designs, graphics, text, logos, photos—is ours or licensed. Don’t use it without permission. “Careless Couture” and related marks may be trademarks; please don’t cosplay as us.

Third-Party Tools & Links:

We use reputable third-party tools for payments, analytics, and shipping. Third-party sites have their own policies—read those, not our minds. We’re not responsible for their content or behavior.

Mobile Messages & Emails:

If you opt into emails/SMS, you consent to receive marketing messages. Message/data rates may apply. You can unsubscribe any time via the link or by emailing carelesscouture@gmail.com. Unsubscribing from marketing doesn’t stop us from sending order/transactional updates.

Disclaimer of Warranties:

The site and products are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties (express or implied), including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We don’t promise the site will be glitch-free, forever up, or compatible with your 2012 phone.

Limitation of Liability:

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we (and our team) won’t be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages—lost profits, data, or patience—arising from your use of the site or products. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us for the order that triggered it.

Some places don’t allow certain exclusions; if that’s you, parts of this may not apply.

Indemnity:

If your use of the site violates laws or these Terms and causes us harm, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from resulting claims, damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees.

Termination:

We may suspend or terminate access to the site at any time for any reason (usually rule-breaking or fraud). You can also stop using the site whenever you like. Relevant provisions survive termination (IP, disclaimers, limitations, indemnity, governing law).

Force Majeure:

We’re not liable for delays/failures caused by events outside our control: strikes, outages, carrier meltdowns, pandemics, acts of nature, or general 2020-energy.

Severability; No Waiver; Assignment:

If a clause is unenforceable, the rest still stands. Our failure to enforce something isn’t a waiver. We may assign our rights/obligations; you may not assign without our consent.

Entire Agreement:

These Terms, plus the policies they reference, are the entire agreement between you and us about the site and your orders. No secret side deals, no whispered exceptions.
