Welcome to Aldoshoeu, your go-to destination for on-trend footwear, bags, and accessories for men and women. These Terms of Use (or “Terms”) govern how you access and use our website (aldoshoeu.com), including browsing products, creating an account, leaving reviews, and interacting with our content. By visiting or using our site, you agree to abide by these rules—designed to keep our fashion community safe, fair, and focused on what matters: celebrating your unique style.

1. Eligibility to Use Our Site

Age Requirement: You must be at least 13 years old to use our site. If you’re under 18, you need a parent or guardian’s permission to create an account, share personal information, or make purchases (per our Terms of Purchase).
Account Responsibility: If you create an Aldoshoeu account, you’re responsible for keeping your login credentials (username, password) secure. Never share your account details with others—any activity linked to your account (e.g., purchases, reviews, saved wishlists) is your responsibility. If you notice unauthorized use, email [email protected] immediately to lock your account.
Legal Capacity: By using our site, you confirm you have the legal right to agree to these Terms (e.g., you’re not barred from using online services by a court order) and that all information you provide (e.g., shipping address, email) is accurate and up-to-date.

2. Permitted Uses of Our Site

Our site is built for fashion lovers—here’s what you’re allowed to do:

Browse & Shop: Explore our collection of footwear, bags, and accessories, check product details (e.g., sizing, materials, style notes), and make purchases in line with our Terms of Purchase (including global free shipping and 60-day returns).
Create an Account: Save your shipping/billing info for faster checkout, track orders, build wishlists (e.g., saving a pair of sneakers for your next outfit), and access your purchase history to reorder favorite styles.
Engage With Our Community: Leave genuine product reviews (e.g., “These boots fit true to size and pair perfectly with jeans”) or ask questions about styles (e.g., “Does this crossbody bag fit a smartphone?”). Share your Aldoshoeu looks on social media using #AldoshoeuStyle—we love seeing how you incorporate our pieces into your wardrobe!
Access Educational Content: Use our style guides, blog posts, or video tutorials (e.g., “5 Ways to Style Ankle Boots This Fall,” “How to Care for Leather Bags”) to get inspiration and tips for making the most of your purchases.

3. Prohibited Uses of Our Site

To protect our community and site integrity, these actions are strictly forbidden:

Break the Law: Don’t use our site for illegal activities, including fraud (e.g., using fake payment info to buy accessories), identity theft (e.g., using someone else’s account to make purchases), or selling counterfeit Aldoshoeu products.
Harm the Site or Users: Avoid hacking, uploading viruses, or using bots to scrape product data—this disrupts site functionality and ruins the experience for other shoppers. Don’t harass, bully, or discriminate against other users (e.g., mocking someone’s style choices) or post offensive content (hate speech, violence, explicit material, spam).
Misuse Intellectual Property: Our site’s content—product photos, descriptions, logos, the “Aldoshoeu” name, and style guides—is our intellectual property (or licensed to us). You can’t copy, share, or sell this content without our written permission (e.g., don’t repost our bag photos to sell your own accessories, or use our logo on unapproved merchandise).
Manipulate the Site: Don’t create multiple accounts to exploit promotions (e.g., claiming free shipping multiple times), take advantage of pricing errors (e.g., buying discounted shoes in bulk to resell), or spam our site (e.g., posting the same review repeatedly, sending unsolicited messages to other users).
Impersonate Aldoshoeu: Never pretend to be our team, brand partners, or another user—this includes fake emails, social media accounts, or reviews claiming to be from Aldoshoeu staff.

4. Intellectual Property Rights

Aldoshoeu’s Rights: All content on our site—including product images, specs, blog posts, videos, and the “Aldoshoeu” trademark—is owned by us or our licensed partners. It’s protected by copyright, trademark, and global laws. You may not use this content for commercial purposes (e.g., monetizing our style guides on your website) without our explicit written approval.
Your Content: If you share content on our site (e.g., a product review, a photo of you wearing Aldoshoeu styles), you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide license to use that content for marketing or community purposes (e.g., featuring your review in a newsletter, sharing your photo on our Instagram). We’ll credit you whenever possible, but you confirm you own the content and aren’t violating anyone else’s rights (e.g., no photos of others without their permission).

5. Site Availability & Changes

No Guarantees: We work hard to keep our site up 24/7, but we can’t promise it’ll never have downtime. Occasional issues (e.g., maintenance, technical glitches, high traffic during sales events like Black Friday) may occur. We’ll post updates on our homepage if the site is down for an extended period.
We May Update the Site: We regularly refine our site to improve your experience—this may include adding new features (e.g., a “style matcher” tool to pair shoes with bags), updating product lines, or revising content (e.g., updating size charts based on user feedback). We’ll notify you of major changes (e.g., new account rules) via email (if you have an account) or a pop-up on our site.

6. Links to Third-Party Sites

Our site may include links to third-party platforms, such as our social media pages (Instagram, Facebook), payment processors (Stripe, PayPal), or fashion partners (e.g., style blogs). We don’t control these third-party sites—their Terms of Use and privacy policies apply, not ours. Clicking on these links means you agree to their rules—we recommend reviewing them before using their services.

7. Limitation of Liability

We’re Not Liable for Unforeseen Issues: Aldoshoeu isn’t responsible for damages or losses caused by factors outside our control, including:
Issues with third-party sites (e.g., a payment processor error that delays your order).
Site downtime or technical glitches (e.g., you can’t access your wishlist due to a server issue).
User-generated content (e.g., a false review from another shopper).
Events related to your use of our products (e.g., a shoe scuff from normal wear—our products are designed for style, but we can’t control everyday use).
Our Liability Is Limited: To the maximum extent allowed by law, Aldoshoeu’s total liability for any claims related to our site or these Terms is limited to the amount you spent on your last purchase (e.g., if you bought a \(80 crossbody bag, we can’t be liable for more than \)80).

8. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms occasionally to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements (e.g., new data protection laws). When we do, we’ll post the revised version on our site with a “Last Updated” date at the top. If the changes are significant (e.g., new rules for user-generated content), we’ll also notify you via email (if you have an account) or a pop-up on our site before the changes take effect. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically to stay informed.

9. Dispute Resolution

Contact Us First: If you have a problem with our site (e.g., account issues, content concerns) or these Terms, email [email protected] first. We’ll reply within 24 hours on weekdays (48 hours on weekends/holidays) and work to resolve the issue informally.
Governing Law: These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York (USA). If we can’t resolve a dispute informally, it may be settled in the courts of New York—unless you live in a country with mandatory local jurisdiction (in which case your local laws apply).

By using Aldoshoeu’s site, you’re joining a community of people who express themselves through style. These Terms are here to keep that community safe, fair, and focused on what matters: great fashion and confident self-expression.
