The Site provides general informational and educational content about products and related topics. Content is not personalized professional advice and does not create a professional, fiduciary, advisory, or client relationship.

You are responsible for evaluating information and confirming product specifications, warnings, instructions, suitability, prices, availability, recall status, and other important details before making a decision.

Unless otherwise stated, the Site and its original content, design, organization, graphics, logos, text, selection, and compilation are owned by or licensed to TheGearPool and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Site for personal, non-commercial purposes in accordance with these Terms.

Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We disclaim warranties including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, availability, and security.

We do not warrant that the Site will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that content will always be complete or current.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, TheGearPool and its owners, officers, employees, contributors, contractors, affiliates, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or use, arising from or related to the Site, content, products, third-party links, or these Terms.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for claims relating to the Site or these Terms will not exceed the greater of US $100 or the amount you paid directly to us, if any, during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations. In those jurisdictions, these provisions apply only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless TheGearPool and its owners, officers, employees, contributors, contractors, and affiliates from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your unlawful use of the Site, violation of these Terms, or infringement of another person’s rights.

Changes and Availability

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site and may update these Terms. Updated Terms become effective when posted unless a later date is stated. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.

Termination

We may restrict or terminate access to the Site when we reasonably believe a user has violated these Terms, created legal or security risk, or misused the Site. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain in effect.

Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of [STATE/COUNTRY], without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to any mandatory consumer protections, disputes shall be brought exclusively in the courts located in [COURTS/LOCATION], and you consent to their jurisdiction.

Do not publish this section until the correct business jurisdiction and dispute approach have been selected with legal advice.

Severability and No Waiver

If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with policies expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Site and supersede prior understandings concerning the same subject.
