Effective Date: October 5, 2026 Last Updated: October 5, 2026 Version: v1
These Terms of Use (these "Terms") govern your access to and use of the website located at www.storeducks.com and any related features, content, communications, and services (collectively, the "Service") provided by Storeducks Inc., a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business in San Jose, California ("Storeducks," "we," "us," or "our"). "You" and "your" refer to any person who accesses or uses the Service.
1.1 Agreement. By accessing or using the Service, creating an account, or clicking "I Agree" or a similar button, you agree to be bound by these Terms and the Storeducks Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Service.
1.2 Additional Terms. Certain features may be subject to additional terms presented to you when you use those features ("Additional Terms"). Additional Terms are incorporated into these Terms, and they control over these Terms to the extent of any conflict for that feature.
1.3 Sellers. If you list or apply to list products on the Service, the Storeducks Seller Terms also apply to you. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Seller Terms, the Seller Terms control with respect to your participation as a Seller.
1.4 Use on Behalf of an Organization. If you use the Service on behalf of a business or other organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf, and "you" and "your" include that organization.
2.1 Age. The Service is not directed to children under thirteen (13), and you may not use the Service if you are under 13. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms. You must be at least eighteen (18) years old to create an account or submit content to the Service. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it as required by law.
2.2 Accounts and Login. Some features may require an account. You may access your account using a login method supported by Storeducks. Storeducks may add, modify, or discontinue supported login methods from time to time. Your use of a third-party login is also subject to that provider's terms and privacy policy.
2.3 Account Information and Security. You agree to provide accurate information and keep it current. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and login method and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly at getintouch@storeducks.com if you become aware of any unauthorized access to or use of your account.
2.4 Legal Restrictions. You may not use the Service if you are barred from doing so under applicable law, including if you are located in a country subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions or are identified on a U.S. government restricted-party list.
3.1 Product Discovery. Storeducks is a curated discovery platform for handmade products offered by independent sellers ("Sellers"). The Service does not list food, beverages, dietary supplements, or other products intended to be eaten, drunk, or otherwise ingested by people or animals. Listings on the Service typically include product images, descriptions, and a link to the Seller's own website or other sales channel.
3.2 Storeducks Does Not Sell Products. Storeducks does not sell products, process payments, fulfill orders, ship goods, or handle returns or refunds. When you buy a product you discover on the Service, you buy it from the Seller on the Seller's website or sales channel, and the contract for that sale is solely between you and the Seller. The Seller's own terms, policies, and privacy practices govern that purchase.
3.3 Listing Information. Listing content is provided by Sellers, obtained from Sellers' websites and other channels with their permission, or created or edited by Storeducks. Prices, availability, materials, dimensions, and other product details may change or contain errors. Always confirm product details on the Seller's website before you buy. We may correct errors at any time.
3.4 No Endorsement. Our curation reflects our editorial judgment and relies on information provided by Sellers. Inclusion of a Seller or product on the Service is not an endorsement, certification, or guarantee by Storeducks of the Seller, the product, its quality, safety, legality, or origin, or any claim made about it, including any claim that a product is handmade.
3.5 Third-Party Websites. The Service contains links to websites and services operated by Sellers and other third parties. Storeducks does not control and is not responsible for those websites or services, including their content, security, checkout, or privacy practices. Your use of them is at your own risk and subject to their terms.
3.6 Links and Seller Fees. Outbound links may include tracking or referral parameters or be routed through redirects so we can measure traffic. Some Sellers pay Storeducks fees to participate in the Service, as described in the Seller Terms. Paying a fee does not guarantee that a Seller or product will be listed or featured. If we offer paid placements, sponsored listings, or referral commissions, we will identify paid or sponsored content as required by applicable law.
3.7 Changes to the Service. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with or without notice.
4.1 Your Purchases. You are responsible for evaluating products and Sellers before you buy. Sellers are solely responsible for their products and sales, including pricing, taxes, shipping, returns, refunds, warranties, product safety, and customer service.
4.2 Disputes with Sellers. Any dispute about a purchase is between you and the Seller, and you agree to raise it directly with the Seller. Storeducks may, but is not obligated to, help communicate with a Seller or take action on a listing. You may report a concern about a Seller or listing to getintouch@storeducks.com.
4.3 Release. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release Storeducks and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from claims, demands, and damages of every kind, known and unknown, arising out of or connected with any dispute between you and a Seller or any product you purchase from a Seller. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party." This release does not apply to claims arising from Storeducks's own fraud, willful misconduct, or violation of law.
4.4 Product Safety. If you believe a listed product is unsafe, counterfeit, recalled, or misrepresented, please tell us at getintouch@storeducks.com. We may remove listings at our discretion. Information about U.S. consumer product recalls is available from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission at www.cpsc.gov.
5.1 Ownership. The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics, compilation and arrangement of listings, and photographs, videos, and other content created by or for Storeducks ("Storeducks Content"), and the Storeducks name and logo, are owned by Storeducks or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Seller Content (defined in Section 6) is owned by the applicable Seller or its licensors.
5.2 Limited License. Subject to these Terms, Storeducks grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal, non-commercial purposes, such as browsing listings and visiting Sellers' websites.
5.3 Trademarks. You may not use Storeducks's name, logo, or other trademarks without our prior written permission, except that Sellers may accurately state that their products are featured on the Service as permitted by the Seller Terms.
5.4 Reservation of Rights. All rights not expressly granted to you in these Terms are reserved by Storeducks and its licensors.
Product images, descriptions, trademarks, logos, and other materials provided by or obtained from Sellers ("Seller Content") are displayed on the Service under licenses Sellers grant to Storeducks. Seller Content is owned by the applicable Seller or its licensors. Except for using sharing features we provide (for example, sharing a link to a listing), you may not copy, reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from Seller Content without the permission of its owner.
7.1 User Content. If the Service allows you to submit content, such as comments, messages, product or Seller suggestions, or profile information ("User Content"), you retain ownership of your User Content. You grant Storeducks a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, adapt (for formatting and display), and distribute your User Content for the purpose of operating, promoting, and improving the Service. This license is sublicensable only to Storeducks's service providers acting on its behalf and continues for as long as the User Content remains on the Service, plus a reasonable period to remove it from backups and caches.
7.2 Your Responsibilities. You represent that you own or have the necessary rights to your User Content and that it does not violate any law or anyone's rights, including intellectual property, privacy, and publicity rights. Suggesting a Seller or product to us does not grant us rights in that Seller's content.
7.3 Moderation. Storeducks has no obligation to monitor User Content but may review, refuse, edit, or remove any User Content at any time for any lawful reason.
7.4 Feedback. If you give us suggestions, ideas, or other feedback about the Service, we may use it for any purpose without obligation or compensation to you.
You agree not to, and not to help or permit anyone else to:
(a) use the Service in violation of any law or regulation or for any fraudulent or deceptive purpose; (b) infringe or violate the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any person; (c) copy, scrape, crawl, harvest, or extract data or content from the Service by automated means, except that public search engines may index the Service in accordance with our robots.txt file; (d) use any content from the Service to build a competing database or directory, or to train or develop artificial intelligence or machine learning models, without our prior written permission; (e) decompile, reverse engineer, or attempt to derive the source code of the Service, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits despite this restriction; (f) interfere with, disrupt, overload, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or any Storeducks system, or circumvent any security or access control; (g) upload or transmit viruses, malware, or other harmful code; (h) impersonate any person or misrepresent your identity or affiliation, including any affiliation with Storeducks; (i) harass, threaten, or abuse any person, or submit content that is defamatory, obscene, hateful, or otherwise objectionable; (j) send spam or unsolicited communications through or about the Service; (k) frame or mirror the Service, or remove or obscure any proprietary notice; or (l) submit false reports or complaints, including false notices under Section 9.

We may restore the material not less than ten (10) nor more than fourteen (14) business days after receiving a valid counter-notice, unless we first receive notice that the complaining party has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the activity.
9.3 Repeat Infringers. Storeducks will, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of users and Sellers who are repeat infringers of the intellectual property rights of others.
9.4 Misrepresentations. Under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), a person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages.
9.5 Trademark and Other Complaints. To report other intellectual property concerns, such as trademark infringement or counterfeit goods, email getintouch@storeducks.com with a description of the concern and the location of the material.
Our Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share personal information when you use the Service, including through cookies and similar technologies and when you follow links to Sellers' websites. When you leave the Service for a Seller's or other third party's website, that party's privacy practices apply. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information.
11.1 Electronic Communications. You consent to receive agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications from Storeducks electronically, including by email and by posting on the Service, and agree that they satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
11.2 Service and Marketing Emails. If you have an account or subscribe to updates, we may send you service-related emails (for example, about your account or changes to these Terms). We may also send marketing emails; you can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in the email. We do not send text messages unless you separately agree to receive them.
12.1 By You. You may stop using the Service at any time. To close your account, email getintouch@storeducks.com or use any account-closure feature we make available.
12.2 By Storeducks. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service or your account at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or the law, if your use creates risk for Storeducks, Sellers, users, or the public, or if we discontinue the Service.
12.3 Effect of Termination. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends. Sections 4.3, 5, 6, 7 (to the extent of licenses in existence at termination), 12.3, and 13 through 20 survive termination.
13.1 "AS IS." THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT ON IT ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, STOREDUCKS DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
13.2 Service Availability and Accuracy. STOREDUCKS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT ANY CONTENT, INCLUDING LISTING INFORMATION, IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR CURRENT.
13.3 Sellers and Products. STOREDUCKS MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY ABOUT ANY SELLER, ANY PRODUCT, OR ANY SELLER'S WEBSITE, INCLUDING THE QUALITY, SAFETY, LEGALITY, ORIGIN, OR HANDMADE STATUS OF ANY PRODUCT, OR ANY SELLER'S ABILITY TO COMPLETE A SALE.
13.4 Applicable Law. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
14.1 Excluded Damages. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, STOREDUCKS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS, THE SERVICE, ANY SELLER, OR ANY PRODUCT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF STOREDUCKS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
14.2 Cap. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, STOREDUCKS'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO STOREDUCKS IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100.00).
14.3 Exceptions. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS OR EXCLUDES LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED OR EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING LIABILITY FOR STOREDUCKS'S FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, OR VIOLATION OF LAW.
15.1 Your Indemnity. To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Storeducks and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from third-party claims, and related losses, liabilities, damages, and reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of (a) your breach of these Terms, (b) your User Content, or (c) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.
15.2 Procedure. Storeducks will notify you of any claim for which it seeks indemnification, and may assume the exclusive defense and control of the claim at its own expense, in which case you will cooperate. You may not settle any claim that imposes an obligation or admission on Storeducks without its prior written consent.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms on the Service and update the "Last Updated" date. For material changes, we will also notify account holders by email or through the Service at least fifteen (15) days before the changes take effect, except for changes required by law or addressing security or fraud, which may take effect immediately. Changes to the Seller Terms are governed by the Seller Terms. We may ask you to accept updated Terms before you continue using your account. Your continued use of the Service after updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Service. Updated Terms will not apply to a Dispute (defined in Section 17) of which Storeducks had actual notice before the change took effect.
17.1 Informal Resolution First. If you have any dispute, claim, or controversy with Storeducks arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service (a "Dispute"), you agree to first contact us at getintouch@storeducks.com with a description of the Dispute and the relief you seek. Storeducks will contact you at the email address associated with your account or that you otherwise provided. Both parties will try in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before filing a lawsuit. All statutes of limitation and filing deadlines are paused during this period.
17.2 Courts. If a Dispute is not resolved informally, either party may bring it in the courts described in Section 18. Either party may also bring an individual action in small claims court for a Dispute within that court's jurisdiction.
17.3 Injunctive Relief. Nothing in this Section prevents either party from seeking immediate injunctive or other equitable relief in court to stop actual or threatened infringement of intellectual property rights or unauthorized access to the Service.
These Terms and any Dispute are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to Section 17, you and Storeducks consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California. This Section does not deprive you of any mandatory consumer protections under the law of the state where you reside.

20.5 Force Majeure. Storeducks is not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications failures, governmental actions, or pandemics.
