Rights and Restrictions Relating to Site Content

Your Limited Right to Use Site Materials

This Site and all the materials available on the Site are the property of us and/or our affiliates or licensors, and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. The Site is provided solely for your personal noncommercial use. You may not use the Site or the materials available on the Site in a manner that constitutes an infringement of our rights or that has not been authorized by us. More specifically, unless explicitly authorized in these Terms of Service or by the owner of the materials, you may not modify, copy, reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, translate, sell, create derivative works, exploit, or distribute in any manner or medium (including by email or other electronic means) any material from the Site. You may, however, from time to time, download and/or print one copy of individual pages of the Site for your personal, non-commercial use, provided that you keep intact all copyright and other proprietary notices. For information about requesting permission to reproduce or distribute materials from the Site, please contact us.

Our Right to Use Materials You Submit or Post

When you submit or post any material via the Site, you grant us, and anyone authorized by us, a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, unrestricted, worldwide license to use, copy, modify, transmit, sell, exploit, create derivative works from, distribute, and/or publicly perform or display such material, in whole or in part, in any manner or medium (whether now known or hereafter developed), for any purpose that we choose. The foregoing grant includes the right to exploit any proprietary rights in such posting or submission, including, but not limited to, rights under copyright, trademark or patent laws that exist in any relevant jurisdiction. Also, in connection with the exercise of these rights, you grant us, and anyone authorized by us, the right to identify you as the author of any of your postings or submissions by name, email address or screen name, as we deem appropriate. You understand that the technical processing and transmission of the Site, including content submitted by you, may involve transmissions over various networks, and may involve changes to the content to conform and adapt it to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices. You will not receive any compensation of any kind for the use of any materials submitted by you.

Limitations on Linking and Framing

You are free to establish a hypertext link to our Site so long as the link does not state or imply any sponsorship of your website or service by us or by our Site. However, you may not, without our prior written permission, frame or inline link any of the content of our Site, or incorporate into another website or other service any of our material, content or intellectual property.

User Transactions

If you wish to purchase any product or service made available through the Site, you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to your Transaction including, without limitation, information about your method of payment (such as your payment card number and expiration date), and your billing address. By submitting such information, you grant to Clipp the right to provide such information to third parties for purposes of facilitating the completion of Transactions initiated by you or on your behalf. You represent and warrant that (1) the PAYMENT card information you supply to us is true, correct, and complete, (2) you are duly authorized to use such PAYMENT card for the purchase, (3) charges incurred by you will be honored by your PAYMENT card company, and (4) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including shipping and handling charges and all applicable taxes, if any, regardless of the amount quoted on the Site at the time of your order.

How Discount Certificates Work

We work with local merchants and businesses ("Merchants") to provide you with the chance to obtain certificates that give you a discount on the purchase of goods or services at a particular Merchant ("Discount Certificates"). The amount that you pay for the Discount Certificate is the "Payment." The amount for which you may redeem a Discount Certificate with the applicable Merchant is the "Value." The difference between the two is the "Promotional Value." For example, a Discount Certificate could allow you to receive $30 worth of goods at a local grocery store if you pay $10. The Payment for that Discount Certificate is $10. The Value of that Discount Certificate is $30. The Promotional Value is $20.

If you want to purchase a Discount Certificate that you see in one of our daily emails or from the magazine, you must log in to your account and make an offer to purchase the Discount Certificate by entering your credit card information and following all other instructions. By making an offer, you are committing to purchasing the Discount Certificate from the Merchant. If you want to make an offer for a Discount Certificate but you do not have an account, you will be prompted to create one. (See the section entitled "Site Registration Process" below.)

Terms and Conditions are applied to discount certificates.

Each Merchant may impose its own terms and conditions on the use and/or redemption of any Discount Certificate(s). Except as otherwise stated on a Discount Certificate or required by law, the following terms and conditions apply to all Discount Certificates from all Merchants:

Discount Certificates cannot be combined with any other coupons, discounts, or promotions.
If an expiration date for the promotion is stated, then the promotional portion expires on the expiration date. Your payment will not expire until the date that is five years after your credit card is charged, unless the laws of the state in which the Merchant is located require the Merchant to honor the Payment for longer than five years, in which case the expiration of the Payment will be determined by applicable state law.
No refunds, cash back, or credit will be issued for the difference between the Value of the Discount Certificate and your Payment;
No refunds, cash back, or credit will be issued for any partially used Discount Certificate;
Credit card refunds can only be provided up to 60 days past the original purchase date.
Unless the terms of a particular Deal specifically state otherwise or unless otherwise stated herein, we will refund the Payment amount for any unredeemed, unexpired Deal voucher for any reason within the first fourteen (14) days after purchase. To request a refund, you must contact within the fourteen (14) day period. We also will refund or provide a credit in the amount of your Payment for any unredeemed, unexpired Deal voucher if, after your reasonable efforts to redeem the Deal voucher (1), the Merchant does not honor the Deal voucher prior to the expiration date of the Promotional Portion of the Deal; (2) the Merchant does not honor the Payment Portion of the Deal as required by federal or applicable state law, as described above; or (3) the Merchant goes out of business prior to honoring the Deal voucher or the Payment Portion of the Deal as required by federal or applicable state law, as described above. The Merchant is solely responsible for the Deal. We are not responsible for the Deal. All Deals are subject to the Terms of Service.
No refunds will be issued for purchases $25 and under made via Apple Pay or any prepaid gift cards; instead a Clipp site credit will be issued.
Neither Clipp nor the Merchant will be responsible for lost or stolen Deal certificates. Neither Clipp nor the Merchant will be responsible or liable for undelivered notifications if the notification (e.g. email correspondence) is returned as undeliverable.
Discount Certificates may not be copied or duplicated. Any such copies or duplicates are null and void.
Discount Certificates cannot be used for taxes, tips, prior balances, or shipping or handling charges.
Use of Discount Certificates for alcoholic beverages is at the Merchant’s discretion.

Merchant is solely responsible for (1) complying with the terms of the Discount Certificate; (2) any and all injuries, damages, costs, liabilities and claims arising out of, or relating to, the Merchant's goods or services; and (3) any unclaimed property liability arising out of Discount Certificates that are unredeemed or are only partially redeemed.

Site Registration Process

In order to receive emails from us, we may ask you to subscribe by providing certain personally identifiable information such as your name and email address as well as certain demographic information such as your city and state of residence. We may send you an email asking you to verify your subscription to our daily email service. To access certain features of our Site (including to offer to purchase a Discount Certificate or to print a Discount Certificate you have purchased), we may ask you to create an account by providing certain demographic information including your gender, age or year of birth, zip code and country. In addition, if you elect to sign up for a particular feature of the Site, such as discussion forums or social networking features, you may also be asked to register with us on the form provided and such registration may require you to provide personally identifiable information such as your name and email address. You agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Site's subscription and registration forms. If we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Site (or any portion thereof). Our use of any personally identifiable information you provide to us as part of the registration process is governed by the terms of our Privacy Policy.

Responsibility for Your Username and Password

To use certain features of our Site, you will need a username and password, which you will receive through the Site's registration process. We reserve the right to reject or terminate the use of any username that we deem offensive or inappropriate. In addition, we also reserve the right to terminate the use of any username or account, or to deny access to the Site or any features of the Site, 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 upon the rights of others.

Online Commerce

Certain sections of this Site allow you to purchase different types of products and services online (including Discount Certificates) or obtain free coupons for discounts, products or services that are provided by third parties, such as Merchants. We are not responsible for the quality, accuracy, timeliness, reliability or any other aspect of these products and services. If you purchase a Discount Certificate or obtain a coupon on our Site, or make any other purchase from a third party on our Site or on a third-party website that you have accessed via a link on our Site, the information obtained during your visit to that third party's online store or site, and the information that you give as part of the transaction, such as your credit card number and contact information, may be collected by both the third party and us. A Merchant may have privacy and data collection practices that are different from ours. We have no responsibility or liability for these independent policies. In addition, when you purchase products or services on or through the Site or obtain a coupon, you may be subject to additional terms and conditions that specifically apply to your purchase, coupon or use of such products or services. For more information regarding a Merchant, its online store, its privacy policies, and/or any additional terms and conditions that may apply, visit that Merchant's website and click on its information links or contact the Merchant directly. You release us and our affiliates from any damages that you incur, and agree not to assert any claims against us or any of our affiliates, arising from your purchase or use of any products or services made available by third parties through the Site. You agree to be financially responsible for all purchases made by you or someone acting on your behalf through the Site. You agree to use the Site, and to purchase services or products through the Site, for legitimate, non-commercial purposes only. You also agree not to make any purchases for speculative, false or fraudulent purposes or for the purpose of anticipating demand for a particular product or service. You agree to only purchase goods or services for yourself or for another person for whom you are legally permitted to do so. When making a purchase for a third party that requires you to submit the third party's personal information to us or a Merchant, you represent that you have obtained the express consent of such third party to provide such third party's personal information.
