About Us and This Website
United We Stand Books publishes clean fiction and lets readers preview books before they buy. This website shows our books, their descriptions and free preview chapters, and, when available, ways to buy, pre-order or be notified about releases.
Using the Website
You may use this website for personal, non-commercial purposes. When using it, please don’t:
- break the law or use the site to harm anyone;
- try to disrupt, overload or gain unauthorized access to the site or the services it relies on;
- use automated tools to copy or collect the site’s content in bulk; or
- pretend to be someone else, or send false information through our forms.
We may change, pause or remove any part of the website, including any book listing or preview chapter, at any time.
Free Preview Chapters
Free preview chapters are offered so you can decide whether a book is right for you. They are for your personal reading only. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, sell, post or otherwise share preview chapters or other book content, in whole or in part, without our written permission. Short quotations for reviews or commentary that credit the book are welcome.
Copyright and Ownership
All book content on this website, including chapters, descriptions, titles and cover art, is protected by copyright and belongs to the author and/or United We Stand Books. The United We Stand Books name, logo and the rest of this website’s content are also our property. Using the website doesn’t give you ownership of, or a license to reuse, any of this content beyond reading it on the site.
Our Clean-Content Guarantee
Our clean-content standards and guarantee are described on our Clean-Content Standards page. If a published book is found to break our standards, the listing is promptly updated or unpublished and you get your money back in full. If you find content you believe doesn’t meet our standards, please tell us through our contact page.
Purchases and Pre-Orders
When books are available to buy or pre-order, payments made on this website are processed by Stripe on Stripe’s secure checkout page, and Stripe’s own terms apply to that payment. Some books may instead be sold through outside retailers. Purchases made through a retailer are completed on that retailer’s website and are subject to its own terms and policies.
A pre-order reserves a copy of a book before it is released. We will fulfill pre-orders when the book becomes available and will keep you informed if release plans change. If we are unable to fulfill a pre-order, we will cancel it and refund what you paid. Prices, formats and availability are shown at the time of purchase and may change.
Messages and Sign-Ups
When our contact form and release notifications are available, you agree that the information you send is accurate and that you have the right to share it. If you choose to receive text messages, you agree to receive texts about the book release you asked about; message and data rates may apply, and you can opt out at any time by replying STOP. How we handle what you send is explained in our Privacy Policy.
Links to Other Websites
The website may link to other websites, such as book retailers or payment providers. We don’t control those websites and aren’t responsible for their content, products or practices. Their own terms and privacy policies apply.
Disclaimers
We work to keep this website accurate and available, but it is provided “as is” and “as available.” We can’t promise that it will always be available, error-free or free of harmful components, or that every description, price or release date will be complete and current at all times.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, United We Stand Books will not be liable for indirect, incidental or consequential losses arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website. Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have that cannot be limited by law, or our clean-content guarantee described above.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms as the website and our services change. When we do, we will post the new version on this page and update the effective date above. Continuing to use the website after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Contact Us
If you have questions about these terms, please reach United We Stand Books through our contact page.
These terms will be updated as we add new services.
