5. Intellectual Property Rights
All content on the Site—including but not limited to product images, photographs, descriptions, logos, brand names (“Ediktes”), graphics, text, software, and design elements (collectively, “Intellectual Property”)—is owned by or licensed to Ediktes. These Intellectual Property rights are protected by copyright, trademark, patent, and other applicable laws worldwide.
You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and view the Intellectual Property solely for your personal, non-commercial use of the Site. No other rights are granted: you may not copy, modify, distribute, publish, display, perform, or create derivative works from any Intellectual Property without our prior written permission.
If you believe that any content on the Site infringes your intellectual property rights, please contact us at [email protected] with details of the alleged infringement (including your name, contact information, a description of the infringing material, and proof of your ownership rights).
6. Third-Party Links and Content
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, services, or content (e.g., social media platforms, payment processors, shipping providers) that are not owned or controlled by Ediktes. We provide these links for your convenience only and do not endorse, sponsor, or assume responsibility for any third-party content, products, or services.
Your use of third-party links and content is governed by the terms of service and privacy policies of those third parties, not by these Terms. We encourage you to review the terms and policies of any third-party site before using it. Ediktes is not liable for any loss or damage caused by your use of third-party links or content.
7. Disclaimers of Warranties
The Site and Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Ediktes disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to:
- Implied Warranties: Warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement (e.g., we do not warrant that the Site will meet your specific needs, be error-free, or operate without interruption);
- Accuracy of Content: We do not warrant that the content on the Site (including product descriptions, pricing, or availability) is accurate, complete, or up-to-date. We reserve the right to correct errors or update content at any time without notice;
- Security: While we take reasonable measures to protect the Site (as outlined in our Privacy Policy), we do not warrant that the Site will be free from unauthorized access, malware, or data breaches.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above disclaimers may not apply to you. In such cases, any implied warranties will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Ediktes shall not be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages (including but not limited to lost profits, lost data, or inconvenience) arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site or Services, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

This limitation of liability does not apply to:
- Damages caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct;
- Personal injury or property damage resulting from our products or services;
- Any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law (e.g., for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation).
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Ediktes, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in connection with:
- Your use of the Site or Services;
- Your violation of these Terms, applicable laws, or the rights of any third party;
- Your Account activities (including unauthorized use by others);
- Your submission of content to the Site (if applicable).
10. Changes to These Terms
We reserve the right to modify, update, or revise these Terms at any time. When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page and post the revised Terms on the Site. The changes will take effect immediately upon posting, unless we specify a later effective date.
Your continued access to or use of the Site or Services after the revised Terms are posted constitutes your acceptance of the changes.

Upon termination:
- Your right to use the Site and Services will immediately cease;
- You must stop all use of the Site’s content and Intellectual Property;
- We may retain your Account information (in accordance with our Privacy Policy) for legal, regulatory, or business purposes.
Sections 5 (Intellectual Property), 7 (Disclaimers), 8 (Limitation of Liability), 9 (Indemnification), and 12 (Governing Law) will survive termination of these Terms.
12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, or Services shall first be resolved through good-faith negotiation between you and Ediktes. If the dispute cannot be resolved through negotiation within 30 days, either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration in New York, New York, conducted in English under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on both parties, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
You and Ediktes agree to waive the right to a trial by jury and to participate in a class action lawsuit or class arbitration. This means you may only bring claims against Ediktes on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative action.

- Waiver: Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not be deemed a waiver of that provision or any other provision in the future.
