Terms

Terms of use

The terms between you and A Little Shelf for using this site.

Last updated 25 October 2026. These terms are between you and A Little Shelf, which runs this site at littleshelf.org. By using the site you agree to them; if you do not, please do not use it.

What this site is

A Little Shelf’s own site: what it offers, how to reach it, and what it has to say. It is information, offered free. It is not professional, legal, safety or financial advice unless a page says in so many words that it is.

Links that pay us

Some links are affiliate links: if you buy through one, the retailer may pay us a small commission, at no extra cost to you. A commission never decides a pick. We make, stock and sell none of the products linked; a purchase you make after following a link is between you and the retailer, under the retailer’s terms, prices, delivery, returns and warranty, and questions about an order go to the retailer. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Names, words and pictures

The site’s own words, pictures and design are A Little Shelf’s. You may link to any page, and quote a line with a link back, but please do not copy a page wholesale. Product and brand names belong to their owners and are used only to say which product is meant; their appearance here is not an endorsement of us by them.

No warranty

The site is provided as it is, without warranty of any kind. We work to keep it accurate and available, but we cannot promise that every line is correct, current or complete, or that the site is always up.

Limit of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, A Little Shelf is not liable for any loss arising from your use of the site. Where the law does not allow a limit like this, our liability is limited to the least it does allow. Nothing here takes away a right the law gives you that cannot be waived.

Your privacy

What we do with data is set out in the privacy policy, linked at the bottom of every page.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms; the date at the top says when they last changed, and using the site after a change means you accept it. Questions about them go to us through the link in the privacy policy.

Buy it for life is a goal

Buying it for life is what we look for, not what we promise. We do not guarantee how long any product lasts, and no product here comes with a warranty from us. Makers change their products, prices and availability without telling us, so check the retailer’s page before you buy.

Pictures and prices

A product’s picture shows the kind of thing we recommend and may differ from the item the retailer sells; the retailer’s page shows the item itself. We show no prices: a price is the retailer’s, at the moment you buy.
