These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of PhotographyAsAHobby.com (the “Site”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
Informational use
The Site provides photography education, product information, reviews, comparisons, tips, and opinions for general informational purposes. It does not provide professional, legal, financial, safety, or other specialized advice. You are responsible for deciding whether information is suitable for your circumstances and for obtaining qualified advice when appropriate.
Accuracy and changes
We make reasonable efforts to provide useful information, but we do not promise that content is complete, current, accurate, error-free, or available at all times. Camera and gear specifications, compatibility, firmware, features, prices, inventory, promotions, and warranty terms may change. Verify important details directly with the manufacturer, retailer, or other primary source before acting or purchasing. We may correct, update, remove, or reorganize content at any time without notice.
Affiliate links
Some links may be affiliate links. We may earn a commission if you follow one and make a qualifying purchase, at no additional cost to you. Compensation does not guarantee that a product or service is appropriate for you. Product availability, pricing, purchase terms, and fulfillment are controlled by the applicable third party.
Third-party websites, products, and services
The Site may link to or display content from manufacturers, retailers, marketplaces, social networks, software providers, and other third parties. We do not control and do not endorse every statement, product, or practice of those parties. Your interactions, purchases, downloads, and disputes with a third party are between you and that party and are governed by its terms, privacy policy, return policy, and warranty.
Intellectual property
Unless otherwise stated, the Site and its original text, design, graphics, logos, photographs, and other content are owned by or licensed to PhotographyAsAHobby.com and are protected by intellectual-property laws. You may access and print reasonable portions for your personal, noncommercial use. You may not reproduce, republish, sell, scrape, systematically download, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit Site content without prior written permission, except as allowed by law.
Third-party names, trademarks, product images, and other materials belong to their respective owners. Reference to a product or brand does not imply sponsorship or endorsement.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Site for unlawful, fraudulent, harmful, or abusive activity;
- violate another person’s privacy, publicity, intellectual-property, or other rights;
- submit spam, malware, deceptive material, or content that is threatening, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise unlawful;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, accounts, servers, or networks;
- interfere with security, availability, performance, or normal operation of the Site;
- use automated systems to overload, copy, or extract from the Site except for ordinary search-engine indexing or as expressly permitted in writing; or
- misrepresent your identity, affiliation, or the source of content.
We may moderate or remove comments and may restrict access when we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated or the Site or others are at risk.
Your responsibility
You are responsible for your decisions, purchases, equipment, files, and photography activities. Use equipment according to manufacturer instructions; protect and back up your files; obtain necessary permissions; respect people, property, privacy, copyright, and location rules; and comply with applicable laws, including any rules concerning drones, wildlife, travel, or restricted places. Photography can involve weather, traffic, heights, water, wildlife, crowds, electrical equipment, and other hazards. Assess conditions and do not attempt activities beyond your skill or equipment.
Disclaimer of warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Site and all content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, availability, security, or that use of the Site will produce a particular result. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, PhotographyAsAHobby.com and its owners, contributors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, files, opportunities, or goodwill, arising from or related to the Site, its content, third-party links, products, services, or your reliance on any information. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Site will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us to use the Site in the twelve months before the claim or US$100. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Site or contact us. By using the Site, you acknowledge that policy.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date identifies the current version. Continued use of the Site after updated Terms are posted means you accept the revised Terms.
Severability and no waiver
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
