Terms of Service
1 Agreement & Preamble
Welcome to Clierry (“Clierry”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). Clierry is a curated digital bookstore platform designed to deliver exceptional ebooks for deep focus, creative minds, and independent thinkers. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User”, “Reader”, or “Customer”) and Clierry regarding your access to and use of our website (clierry.com), services, customer library, and digital book downloads.
By creating an account, browsing our marketplace, purchasing digital editions, or downloading ebooks from our platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms and our companion Privacy Policy and Refund Policy. If you do not agree with any provision of these Terms, you must immediately discontinue use of the Clierry platform.
2 Ebook Purchases & Digital Delivery
Clierry exclusively provides high-quality digital literary publications. Our catalog consists of digital books across genres including Focus & Deep Work, Mindset & Psychology, Business & Strategy, Sci-Fi & Fiction, and Life & Philosophy.
- Instant Delivery: Upon successful authorization and confirmation of payment, purchased ebooks are made immediately available in your authenticated account hub (dashboard.html) under “My Ebook Library” and “Download Vault”.
- Multi-Format Access: Where indicated on product detail pages, ebooks are delivered in standard industry formats including EPUB (for Apple Books, Kobo, and e-readers), PDF (for tablet and computer reading), and Kindle-compatible formats.
- Lifetime Updates: As an ebook purchaser, you receive lifetime access to future editorial revisions, errata corrections, and supplementary reader guides published for that title at no additional charge.
- Download Preservation: While Clierry maintains your permanent download history in the Customer Hub, we strongly recommend downloading and backing up your purchased digital files to personal storage promptly after purchase.
3 Personal Reading License
When you purchase an ebook on Clierry, you are purchasing a perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable single-user license to read and enjoy the literary work for personal, private, and non-commercial educational purposes (“Personal Reading License”).
License Scope: Your purchase grants you the right to store, display, and read the ebook across your personal devices (computers, tablets, smartphones, and e-ink readers) solely for your individual reading. It does not grant title or ownership of the underlying copyrights, trademarks, or proprietary text.
No title, copyright, or intellectual property rights in the literary content are transferred to you. All rights not expressly granted under these Terms are reserved by Clierry and the respective authors or copyright holders.
4 DRM-Free Fair Use Policy
At Clierry, we believe that true readers deserve a friction-free experience. Our digital files are delivered free of invasive proprietary Digital Rights Management (DRM) wrappers that lock your books into closed, anti-consumer ecosystems.
- Fair Use Device Mobility: You may freely transfer your downloaded EPUB and PDF files to your preferred e-reader, phone, tablet, or desktop reader software without restrictive device-activation counters.
- Personal Archival Backups: You may create personal backup copies on private hard drives, USB keys, or encrypted personal cloud vaults to protect against data loss.
- Accessibility Adjustments: You may adjust typography sizes, margins, color contrasts, or use text-to-speech assistive technology for your own accessible reading needs.
In exchange for this DRM-free freedom, we trust our readers to respect author livelihoods and copyright laws by refraining from unauthorized distribution.
5 Prohibition of Commercial Resale & Distribution
The DRM-free nature of our files is a reader courtesy, not a waiver of copyright law. The following activities are strictly prohibited and constitute a material violation of these Terms:
- No Commercial Resale or Sub-Licensing: You may not sell, resell, rent, lease, sublicense, or monetize any downloaded ebook or portion thereof.
- No Public File Sharing: You may not upload or transmit Clierry ebooks to peer-to-peer file-sharing networks (torrents), public cloud storage drives, Discord servers, Reddit threads, Telegram channels, or pirate libraries.
- No Bulk Distribution: You may not distribute copies to colleagues, email mailing lists, or social media groups. If your organization or book club desires multi-reader licensing, please contact us for bulk institutional licensing.
- No AI Model Training: You may not ingest, scrape, or feed Clierry ebooks into automated machine learning algorithms, large language model training corpora, or synthetic content generation systems without explicit written consent from the author.
Clierry reserves the right to employ non-intrusive watermarking and cryptographic purchase tokens in download streams. Unlawful distribution will result in immediate termination of account access and may be prosecuted under applicable copyright statutes.
6 User Accounts & Security
To access purchased books and customer hub features, you must register an account on Clierry. In doing so, you agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and verifiable contact and identification information during registration.
- Safeguard your authentication credentials, including your password and two-factor authentication (2FA/TOTP) keys.
- Accept responsibility for all activities, purchases, and library operations conducted through your account credentials.
- Notify our support team immediately at contact.html if you suspect unauthorized access or security breaches involving your account.
You may not transfer, share, or sell your Clierry account to any third party.
7 Intellectual Property Rights
All content available on the Clierry platform—including but not limited to literary texts, book cover artwork, typography arrangements, curated compilations, branding assets, logos (actuallogo.png), interface styling, software scripts, and visual themes—is protected by international copyright, trademark, and unfair competition laws.
Clierry, the Clierry cherry brandmark, and related design elements are proprietary trademarks of Clierry. You may not use our brand marks, logos, or commercial dress in connection with any third-party product or service without prior express written permission.
8 Pricing, Taxes & Billing
All prices displayed in our marketplace are stated in the local currency indicated at checkout (e.g., USD, INR, EUR) and are subject to change without notice prior to transaction completion.
- Payment Processing: Transactions are securely processed through PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant payment gateways (such as Stripe or Razorpay). Clierry does not store or process sensitive debit or credit card details directly on our web servers.
- Applicable Taxes: Depending on your location and statutory tax regulations, applicable digital sales taxes, GST, or Value Added Tax (VAT) may be calculated and presented on your checkout summary and tax invoices.
- Invoicing: Detailed, printable digital invoices for every order are permanently archived and accessible from the Invoices tab in dashboard.html.
9 Limitation of Liability & Warranty Disclaimer
The Clierry platform, digital catalog, customer hub, and downloaded ebooks are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
To the fullest extent permissible by applicable law, in no event shall Clierry, its directors, employees, authors, or affiliates be liable for any indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with your inability to access, download, or read purchased files, regardless of legal theory.
Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of these Terms or your ebook purchase shall not exceed the amount actually paid by you for the specific ebook giving rise to the claim.
