Terms of Service

Effective date: March 16, 2026

IMPORTANT NOTICE: THESE TERMS ARE SUBJECT TO A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION RIGHTS, AS DETAILED IN THE "WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS" SECTION BELOW.

The following Terms of Service (these "Terms") govern your access to and use of the web services operated by Webcafe Commerce LLC DBA _cafe_ ("TechSnif," "we," "us," or "our"), including techsnif.com (collectively, the "Services").

By continuing to use the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and to use the Services in accordance with these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, and any additional terms and conditions that are referenced herein or that otherwise may apply to specific sections of the Services, or to products and services that we make available to you through the Services (all of which are deemed part of these Terms of Service). Accessing the Services, in any manner, whether automated or otherwise, constitutes use of the Services and your agreement to be bound by these Terms of Service. Your accessing of the Services for the limited and exclusive purpose of reviewing these Terms of Service does not constitute your "use" of the Services or agreement to be bound by these Terms of Service unless you further access or use the Services.

BY CONTINUING TO USE THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO ABIDE BY THESE TERMS, AND IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU REVIEW THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SERVICES.

All references to "you" or "your," as applicable, mean the person who accesses or uses the Services, and each of your heirs, assigns, and successors. If you use the Services on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity, your acceptance of the Terms will be deemed an acceptance by that entity, and "you" and "your" herein shall refer to that entity.

We reserve the right to change these Terms of Service or to impose new conditions on use of the Services, from time to time, in which case we will post the revised Terms of Service on this website and update the "Effective Date" to reflect the date of the changes. By continuing to use the Services after we post any such changes or notify you of any material changes, you accept the Terms of Service, as modified.

We also reserve the right to deny access to the Services or any features of the Services to anyone who violates these Terms of Service or who, in our sole judgment, interferes with the ability of others to enjoy our website or infringes the rights of others.

Privacy

Please review our Privacy Policy, which also governs your use of the Services, to understand our practices regarding the information we collect about you through the Services. By using the Services, you indicate that you have read and understand our Privacy Policy, including its disclosures regarding collection, use, and disclosure of your information.

Waiver of Certain Rights

No Jury Trial

You and TechSnif each hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any controversy, claim, counterclaim, or other dispute arising between you and TechSnif relating to these Terms or our Site (each a "Claim," and collectively, "Claims").

No Class Representative or Private Attorney General

Each of you and TechSnif agree that with respect to any Claim, neither may: (i) act as a class representative or private attorney general; or (ii) participate as a member of a class of claimants. You agree that neither you nor TechSnif may litigate (or seek to litigate) any Claim on a class or representative basis, and that you and TechSnif may seek relief only through individual Claims. You and TechSnif may not consolidate or join (or seek to consolidate or join) any controversy, claim, counterclaim, or other dispute of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.

Severability/No Waiver/Survival

If any provision of this section (Waiver of Certain Rights) is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed appropriately modified to give effect to the intent of the provision or, if modification is not possible, will be severed and the remainder of this section will continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this section will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver will not waive or affect any other provision of these Terms. This section will survive the termination of your relationship with TechSnif.

30-Day Opt-Out Right

You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this section by sending, within 30 days after first becoming subject to its terms, written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address:

Webcafe Commerce LLC DBA _cafe_
548 Market St. #796608
San Francisco, California 94104

Your notice must include your name and address, any usernames, each email address you have used in connection with the Services, and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this section. You agree that if you opt out of this section, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this section has no effect on any other agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.

Limitations

This section limits certain rights, including the right to maintain certain court actions, the right to a jury trial, the right to participate in any form of class or representative claim, and the right to certain remedies and forms of relief.

Restrictions

The Services are intended for use only by residents of the United States over the age of 13. They may not comply with legal requirements of foreign countries. Other countries may have laws and regulatory requirements that differ from those in the U.S. By using this Services, you agree to the transfer and processing of any personal information you provide to the U.S. as set forth in the Privacy Policy under the laws of the United States and the State of California, rather than under the law of your home country.

Miscellaneous

This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between us and you with respect to the subject matter contained in this agreement and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous agreements, proposals and communications, written or oral. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use the products or services of a third party that are provided through the Services. In the event of any conflict between any such third-party terms and conditions and these Terms of Service, these Terms of Service will govern. This agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. The failure of TechSnif to enforce any provision(s) of these Terms or respond to a breach by any party shall in no way waive TechSnif's right to subsequently enforce any of these Terms or respond to any breaches.

This agreement is personal to you and you may not assign it or any associated rights hereunder to anyone. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null and void. If any provision of this agreement is found to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from this agreement and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. These Terms of Service are not intended to benefit any third party, and do not create any third-party beneficiaries. Accordingly, these Terms of Service may only be invoked or enforced by you or us. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action that you may have arising out of or related to use of the Services or these Terms of Service must be filed by you within one year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. The term "including" in these Terms will be interpreted broadly and will mean "including, without limitation." Titles are for convenience only and will not be considered when interpreting these Terms.
