These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement between you and GearReview. We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time, and such modifications shall be effective immediately upon posting on the website. Your continued use of the website after modifications are posted constitutes your acceptance of the modified terms.

Use License

Permission is granted to temporarily access the materials on GearReview's website for personal, non-commercial transitory viewing only. This is the grant of a license, not a transfer of title, and under this license you may not:

  • Attempt to decompile or reverse engineer any software contained on the website
  • Remove any copyright or other proprietary notations from the materials

Disclaimer

The materials on GearReview's website are provided on an 'as is' basis. GearReview makes no warranties, expressed or implied, and hereby disclaims and negates all other warranties including, without limitation, implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property or other violation of rights.

Further, GearReview does not warrant or make any representations concerning the accuracy, likely results, or reliability of the use of the materials on its website or otherwise relating to such materials or on any sites linked to this site. Our reviews are based on our testing and expert opinions at the time of publication and are subject to change. Product specifications, prices, and availability may change without notice.

Limitations of Liability

In no event shall GearReview or its suppliers be liable for any damages (including, without limitation, damages for loss of data or profit, or due to business interruption) arising out of the use or inability to use the materials on GearReview's website, even if GearReview or an authorized representative has been notified orally or in writing of the possibility of such damage.

Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties, or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, these limitations may not apply to you. GearReview provides information for informational purposes only and does not constitute professional advice. You are responsible for evaluating the suitability of any product for your specific needs.
