We make no representations or warranties regarding any products or services purchased through affiliate links. Any purchase you make is subject to the terms and conditions of the respective retailer. We are not a party to any transaction between you and any third-party retailer.

The Site may also display advertisements. We do not endorse the products or services advertised unless explicitly stated. We are not responsible for the content of advertisements or for any transactions between you and advertisers.

13. Termination

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate or suspend your access to all or part of the Site at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including without limitation if we believe you have violated or acted inconsistently with these Terms.

Upon termination, your right to use the Site will immediately cease.

If you wish to terminate this agreement, you may simply discontinue using the Site. We may retain User Content and other information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

14. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Delaware for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site.

If you access the Site from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws. You agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to these Terms.

15. Dispute Resolution

15.1 Informal Resolution

We value our relationship with you and prefer to resolve disputes amicably. Before initiating any formal legal proceedings, you agree to contact us at legal@printerinsight.com and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. We will make reasonable efforts to address your concerns within thirty (30) days.

15.2 Arbitration

If informal resolution fails, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site shall be resolved through binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court.

The arbitration shall be conducted in Delaware, or via videoconference if agreed by both parties. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Each party shall bear its own costs of arbitration unless the arbitrator determines otherwise.

15.3 Class Action Waiver

YOU AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against PrinterInsight. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you waive any right to a jury trial.

15.4 Statute of Limitations

You agree that any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of the Site must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or it shall be permanently barred, regardless of any statute or law to the contrary.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to achieve the closest lawful effect to the original intent, or severed if modification is not possible. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The unenforceability of any provision in any jurisdiction shall not affect the enforceability of that provision in other jurisdictions.
