OVERVIEW

Welcome to Libraro.

The terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Libraro. Libraro operates this store and website, including related information, content, features, tools, products and services, in order to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience.

Libraro is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.

These Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced herein, describe your rights and responsibilities when you use this website and purchase from Libraro.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully. By visiting, interacting with, or using our website, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or our Privacy Policy, please do not use or access this website.


SECTION 1 - ACCESS AND ACCOUNT

By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state, province, or country of residence.

To use this website, including browsing the online store or purchasing products, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your name, email address, billing information, payment information, and shipping information.

You represent and warrant that all information you provide is correct, current, and complete.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to any other person.


SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS

Libraro creates 1/12 scale wooden miniature furniture intended for display, collection, and quiet appreciation.

We make every effort to represent our products accurately. However, colors, wood grain, texture, and product appearance may differ slightly from how they appear on your screen due to device settings, lighting, photography, and the natural characteristics of wood.

Each piece is individually handcrafted in small quantities. Natural variations in wood grain, color, and subtle differences in hand-finishing may occur.

We do not warrant that the appearance or quality of any product purchased by you will be exactly the same as depicted in our online store.

All product descriptions are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time and to limit the quantity of products offered to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction.


SECTION 3 - ORDERS

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase.

Libraro reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at its discretion. Your order is not accepted until Libraro confirms acceptance.

We must receive and process your payment before your order is accepted.

Please review your order carefully before submitting it. Libraro may be unable to accommodate cancellation requests after an order has been accepted, prepared for shipment, or shipped.

If we do not accept, make a change to, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you using the email address or other contact information provided at the time the order was placed.

Your purchases are subject to return, exchange, cancellation, or refund solely in accordance with our Returns & Refunds Policy.

You represent and warrant that your purchases are for your own personal or household use and not for commercial resale.


SECTION 4 - PRICES AND BILLING

Prices are subject to change without notice.

The price charged for a product will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be shown in your order confirmation email.

Unless otherwise stated, posted prices do not include shipping fees, customs duties, import taxes, VAT, brokerage fees, or other charges imposed by the destination country or region.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, payment, billing, and shipping information for all purchases made through this website.

You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address and payment information, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

You represent and warrant that any payment information you provide is true, correct, and complete, and that you are authorized to use the payment method provided.

Delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays caused by shipping carriers, customs processing, holidays, weather, or events outside our control.

International orders may be subject to customs duties, import taxes, VAT, brokerage fees, or other charges imposed by the destination country or region. These charges are the responsibility of the customer.

We cannot mark orders as gifts or declare a lower value on customs documents.

If your order arrives damaged, please contact us within 7 days of delivery in accordance with our Returns & Refunds Policy. Please keep all packaging materials and the outer shipping box until the issue has been reviewed.
