By accessing, browsing, registering for, or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Services.
1. Description of Our Services

Our Services may include:
Searching for book sales by ZIP code or geographic location;
Filtering sales by distance, date, or other criteria;
Viewing information about upcoming sales;
Receiving email alerts and notifications;
Creating a user account;
Accessing free features;
Purchasing paid subscriptions or other products or services; and
Other features that we may introduce in the future.
We may modify, add, suspend, or discontinue any portion of the Services at any time.
2. Eligibility
You must be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement to use the Services.
If you use the Services on behalf of a business or organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that business or organization to these Terms.
3. User Accounts
Certain features may require you to create an account.
You agree to provide accurate and complete information when creating an account and to keep that information reasonably current.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity occurring through your account.
You agree to notify us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed or used without authorization.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that contain false, misleading, fraudulent, or unauthorized information.
4. Information and Book-Sale Listings
We attempt to provide useful and accurate information about book sales and other events.
However, information may be obtained from libraries, nonprofit organizations, public websites, event organizers, users, third-party sources, or other sources.
We do not guarantee that any listing or event information is:
Accurate;
Complete;
Current;
Error-free;
Available;
Unchanged; or
Suitable for your particular plans.
Book sales may be canceled, postponed, relocated, sold out, or otherwise changed after information has been published on the Website.
You are responsible for confirming important event details directly with the organization hosting the event before traveling or making other arrangements.
We are not responsible for expenses, losses, missed events, travel costs, or other damages resulting from inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or changed event information.
5. User-Submitted Information
If the Services allow you to submit information, including event information, comments, corrections, photographs, or other content ("User Content"), you are responsible for the content you submit.
You represent that you have the right to submit the User Content and that submitting it does not violate another person's rights or any applicable law.
By submitting User Content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, distribute, display, and otherwise use that content in connection with operating, improving, promoting, and providing the Services.
We reserve the right to remove User Content at our discretion.
6. Subscriptions and Paid Services
We may offer paid subscriptions or other paid Services.
Before purchasing a paid Service, the applicable price, billing frequency, and material subscription terms will be presented to you.
By purchasing a subscription, you authorize us or our payment processor to charge the payment method you provide for applicable fees.
Unless otherwise stated at checkout, subscriptions may automatically renew until canceled.
You may cancel your subscription according to the cancellation instructions provided through the Services.
Cancellation generally prevents future recurring charges but does not automatically provide a refund for amounts already charged.
7. Prices and Price Changes
We reserve the right to change prices for our Services.
If a price change affects an existing recurring subscription, we will provide notice when required by applicable law.
Your continued use of a paid subscription after the effective date of a price change may constitute acceptance of the new price to the extent permitted by law.
8. Refunds
Unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase or required by applicable law, payments are non-refundable.
If you believe you were charged in error, you may contact us via the "Contact Us" page on Booksalenearme.com.
We may review refund requests individually.
9. Email Communications
By providing your email address, you may receive communications related to your account, subscriptions, Services, book-sale alerts, and other information associated with your use of the Website.
Where permitted by applicable law, we may also send promotional and marketing communications.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided in the applicable communication.
Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not necessarily prevent us from sending necessary transactional, account, security, or service-related communications.
10. Collection, Use, Sharing, and Monetization of Personal Information
Our collection, use, disclosure, sharing, and other processing of personal information are described in our Privacy Policy.
