Everquill Press Disclaimer

Last Updated: 10/3/2024

Hello there, reader! Welcome to Everquill Press, where we celebrate public domain classics, literary knowledge, and all the joy that comes from a well-thought-out book blog. But before you dive into our posts, there are a few important things you should know about our content and liability protections!

This Disclaimer governs your use of this Website. By accessing the site, you agree to the terms outlined here and in our:

Remember to always consult these documents if you have any questions about how we manage and present information.

1. Informational & Educational Content

The blog posts, articles, and any literary content provided on everquillpress.com (the “Website”) are offered for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only. We do our best to provide accurate, thought-provoking, and enjoyable literary content, but:

  • No Professional Advice: We are not legal, financial, or professional advisors. The content we provide—from book summaries, educational articles, and literary critiques—isn’t a substitute for expert advice in any of those fields (unless that expert advice is, say, on how to survive a weekend immersed in War and Peace).
  • Accuracy & Completeness: While we aim for precision, the content on this Website may not always be the most up-to-date or exhaustive version of the topic at hand. Like all literary analyses, opinions evolve, interpretations differ, and sometimes Shakespeare’s ghost might have other ideas! 😉

By engaging with our content, you acknowledge that everything we share is for general educational purposes only and that any actions you take or decisions you make based on this content are your responsibility.

2. Affiliate Links & Recommendations

Everquill Press participates in various affiliate marketing programs, including the Amazon Associates Program. This means we sometimes include affiliate links in our blog posts, which let you purchase literary treasures through third-party websites (e.g., Amazon).

a. How Affiliate Links Work

When you click an affiliate link and buy a product, Everquill Press may earn a small commission (at no extra cost to you!). These commissions help us keep the Website running smoothly and free of distracting ads.

b. Third-Party Websites

Once you click an affiliate link and leave our Website, we cannot control what happens on the third-party site (think of it as being transported out of our literary world and into someone else’s domain!). Third-party sites like Amazon have their own terms, policies, and limitations. We encourage you to review their privacy notices, disclaimers, and terms before engaging or making purchases.

By using our affiliate links, you understand that any interactions or transactions take place directly between you and the third-party provider—Everquill Press does not guarantee their products or accept liability for your experiences on their sites.

3. Copyright & Fair Use of Blog Excerpts

Though we consider public domain works to be a shared cultural treasure, the original commentary, analysis, blog posts, and designs on Everquill Press are our intellectual property.

a. Excerpts from Public Domain

We may use excerpts from public domain works (because why shouldn’t we discuss that one shocking scene from Moby Dick?). However, commentary, summaries, editorial work, and annotations are original to Everquill Press and protected under copyright law.

You may:

  • Read and enjoy any blog post, article, or excerpt for personal use,
  • Share excerpts of blog posts online (with proper credit and a clear link back to our original post).

You may not:

  • Reproduce, republish, or distribute the entire blog post or other original content without written permission. But, Hey… We’re nice folks over here, so feel free to reach out. 😉

4. Email Subscriptions and Newsletters

We love sharing literary updates, blog highlights, and affiliate offers through our email newsletter. By signing up for our newsletter, you agree that you’ve willingly provided your contact information (likely your email address) and consent to receiving electronic communications.

a. Unsubscribing

You may unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link included in every email—though we’ll miss you! Once you unsubscribe, you’ll no longer receive updates from us unless you sign up again.

For more on how we manage your data, check out our Privacy Policy (www.everquillpress.com/privacy-policy).

5. No Guarantees or Warranties

While we strive for perfection (or at least close!), Everquill Press disclaims all warranties related to the accuracy, reliability, and completeness of our content, or any third-party products we may recommend or link to.

This includes but is not limited to:

  • Errors or Omissions: Sometimes information is outdated or we make an honest mistake—which the Internet rarely forgets.
  • Technical Glitches: Site issues or outages beyond our control (hosted on server gremlins?) may sometimes render parts of the site inaccessible.

YOU, the user, acknowledge that by consuming content on our Website, you do so at your own discretion and risk. We do not make any explicit guarantees about the results of using our content, recommendations, or third-party links.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Everquill Press is not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages resulting from:

  • Your use of or reliance on any content on the Website,
  • Your purchases or use of third-party links (i.e., from Amazon affiliate links),
  • Your inability to access the Website due to technical difficulties.

Whether you’re chilling with Austen—or agonizing over your TBR pile (#relatable), we’re not liable for any outcomes. Your literary fate lies in your own hands—though we’ll do all we can to help along the way.

7. External Links

The site may contain links to third-party Websites, usually to provide additional resources or affiliate recommendations. We do try to vet recommended materials to ensure they align with our principles, but we:

  • Are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or functionality of third-party sites,
  • Do not control their policies or practices,
  • Encourage you to review their legal terms before interacting, purchasing, or sharing information.

Using external links is at your own discretion.
