Terms of service

We check the prices of rods and reels at online tackle shops, keep a history of them, and point out prices that are low compared with that history. We aren't a shop: we don't sell, ship or handle returns for any product.

Prices can be wrong or out of date. We check each shop about twice a day, so a price may have changed since our last check, and matching the same product across different shops is done automatically and can make mistakes. Prices from Japanese shops are converted to US dollars and don't include shipping, import duties or taxes. The price, stock and terms on the shop's own website are the ones that count.

Purchases are between you and the shop. When you click through and buy something, the sale is with that shop under its terms. Questions about orders, shipping, returns or warranties go to the shop.

Affiliate links. Some links to shops are affiliate links, so we may earn a commission if you buy, at no extra cost to you. Commissions never affect which prices we call deals.

• You need to be at least 13 to create an account, and at least 18 (or have a parent or guardian's permission) to buy a membership.
• Use an email address you control. You're responsible for activity on your account, so keep access to that email secure.
• One person per account. Membership is for your own use; please don't share it or resell our alerts.

You can delete your account at any time from your account page.

• Price. Membership costs the monthly price shown on the membership page when you join, plus any sales tax that applies. There's no free trial.
• Automatic renewal. Your membership renews each month on the same date, and we charge your payment method automatically until you cancel.
• Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your full card details.
• Failed payments. If a renewal payment fails, Stripe will retry it and email you to update your card. If it still can't be collected, your membership ends and your account goes back to a free account.
• Price changes. If we change the membership price, we'll email members at least 30 days before it applies to them, so you have time to cancel first.

You can cancel at any time, without contacting us: on your account page, choose “Manage billing or cancel”. Your membership stays active until the end of the month you've already paid for, and you won't be charged again. After that your account becomes a free account with the free features described on the membership page.

If you delete your account instead, your membership ends immediately along with the account.

Because you can cancel at any time and keep access until the end of the month you paid for, we don't give refunds or credits for partial months, including when you delete your account partway through a month.

We will refund you if:

• you were charged by mistake, for example twice for the same month, or after you'd cancelled; or
• member alerts didn't work for a significant part of the month you paid for because of a problem on our side.

Email support@tackleticker.com within 30 days of the charge. Approved refunds go back to your original payment method, and usually show up within 5 to 10 business days. Where the law gives you a right to a refund, these terms don't take it away.

Please don't:

• copy our price history or deal data in bulk, or use automated tools to collect it, without our written permission;
• try to break, overload or get around the security of the site; or
• use the site for anything unlawful, or to send spam.

We may suspend or close accounts that break these rules. If we close a paid account for a reason other than a breach of these terms, we'll refund the unused part of the current month.

The site's design, text, deal rankings and price history are ours. Product names, brands and photos belong to their owners and are shown to identify the products. You're welcome to share links to Tackle Ticker pages.

We work hard to keep prices accurate and alerts timely, but the site is provided “as is”. We don't guarantee that prices are correct or current, that a deal will still be available, that alerts will arrive at a particular time, or that the site will always be up. You decide what to buy and where.

To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as paying more for an item or missing a deal, and our total liability to you for any claim about the site is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or $50 if that's more. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.

We may add, change or remove features, or add and remove shops we track. If we change these terms in a way that matters, we'll update the date at the top and email account holders before the change takes effect. If you keep using the site after that, the new terms apply. If you don't agree, you can cancel or delete your account.

If we ever shut Tackle Ticker down, we'll email members in advance, stop all charges, and refund any unused part of the current month.

These terms are governed by the laws of Pennsylvania, USA. If we have a disagreement, please email us first; most things can be sorted out that way.
