Be warned – there is going to be a lot of legal stuff here. It’s a requirement, but we wanted to make it a little more interesting than your standard Terms of Use page. So, here we go…
Gadget.Land (we can just call it the “Site” from this point forward) is owned and operated by Gadget.Land. The purpose of this website is to bring to your attention some pretty unique (and in some people’s eyes, unusual) products that we want to share with you. Plus, this Site is designed to give you the option of purchasing any of the funky things we post here.
But, before we go any further, we request that you read these Terms of Service (known from this point as the “Agreement”) carefully before you proceed to use this Site or any of the services provided on this Site (collectively known as the “Services”). We ask that you do this just so we can get along a little better and so that you fully understand what you are getting into when you start to explore this Site. Okay?
Eligibility
We want everyone to have some fun on our Site. But, we also have to point out that by visiting the Site and accepting these Terms, you represent and warrant to us at Gadget.Land that you have the right, authority and capacity to agree to and abide by these Terms. In other words, you can check out what we have here because you want to and can use this Site in the way we intend it to be used. Plus, you also represent and warrant to us here at Gadget.Land that you will use the Site as we want you to and that you will do so in a manner consistent with any and all applicable laws and regulations.
Trademarks And Copyrights
Here’s where we tell you about how we have covered our butt on some rather sticky issues. The Gadget.Land website and all materials incorporated on the Site (we’ll just call them the “Materials” to keep it simple) are protected by copyrights, patents, trade secrets or other recognized proprietary rights (that’s another way of saying “Copyrights”). In addition to those, you may encounter some other characters, logos and other images on the Site and they are also protected and registered or unregistered trademarks, trade names and or other service marks that may be owned by others (we’ll call these “Trademarks”). The gang here at Gadget.Land respects the intellectual property rights of others and requests that you do the same when using our Site.
Your Use of Materials
You have the right to use the Site and the Materials you find at the Site and that is subject to your compliance with these Terms of Use. However, if you choose to modify any of the Materials you discover on the Site, you are a bad person. That’s because your modifications, however minute, would be a direct violation of the Copyrights and Trademarks of the original registered owners. It’s really a better idea to just leave that stuff alone and enjoy them without messing around with them.
Here’s what you can do: you can access and display any of the Materials and other content displayed on our Site if you use it for non-commercial, personal, entertainment use on a single computer only. However, the Materials and other content on the Site may not otherwise be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, transmitted, distributed or used in any way unless we actually authorize you to do so. Now, if we do give your authorization to copy Materials from our Site, is it going to have a restriction attached to it where you can only make a single copy for non-commercial, personal, entertainment use on a single computer only and that is going to be subject to you keeping all copyright and proprietary notices in place and intact. You are not allowed to use any of the Materials found on our Site on any other website or networked computer environment. By the way, we know that some of you are pretty clever when it comes to this sort of thing so we want to also point out that you are also not allowed to decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise reduce the code used in any software on the Gadget.Land website into a readable format in order to examine the construction of the software or to copy or create other parts based on such software, in whole or in part.
Links To Other Websites
You are going to find that our Service may contain links to third-party websites and services that we don’t own or operate here at Gadget.Land. As a result, we have no control over, and we assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or the practices of any of those third-party websites and services. Now that we’ve said that, we would like to point out that you are now acknowledging and agreeing to not hold Gadget.Land responsible, or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused in connection to your use or reliance on any such content, goods or services that are available on or through these other websites or services.
To further protect yourself (and us, as well) we really, really would like you to read the terms and conditions and privacy policies of any third-party website or service you visit or use.
Site Restrictions
Users are prohibited from violating or attempting to violate the security of the Site, including, without limitation, the following activities:
