Terms of Service

Last updated: September 1, 2026

Welcome to Rebind Classics. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Rebind Classics website, content, and services (together, the "Service"), operated by Rebind Publishing LLC ("Rebind," "we," "us," or "our"), a Missouri limited liability company.

We've tried to write these Terms in plain English. They still form a binding agreement between you and Rebind, so please read them. By creating an account, purchasing a subscription, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service.

The short version (the full Terms control, but here's the spirit): pay for a membership and you get personal access to everything we publish. Don't redistribute our content, and don't abuse the Service or the people who make it. Cancel whenever you like, and we'll treat you fairly, including a 7-day money-back guarantee on your first purchase.

1. Who can use the Service

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) to create an account or purchase a subscription. Each subscription is an individual membership, personal to the account holder.

2. Your account

You need an account to subscribe, and your account is yours alone. The Service is built around a single reader: your library, reading progress, playback position, and personalization all assume one person, and they won't work as intended if the account is shared. So we ask you to keep your login credentials confidential and not to share your account with others. (If someone in your house falls for it too, a membership makes a good gift.)

You're responsible for activity that occurs under your account, and we may apply reasonable technical limits, such as the number of registered devices or simultaneous streams, to keep accounts personal and the Service secure. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us at support@rebindclassics.com and we'll help you secure it.

3. Subscriptions, billing, and renewal

Plans. We offer monthly and annual subscriptions. Current pricing is shown at checkout and on our pricing page.

Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel: monthly plans each month, annual plans each year. By subscribing, you authorize us and our payment processor to charge your payment method on each renewal date at the then-current price for your plan.

Renewal reminders. Before each annual renewal, we'll email you a reminder so the charge never comes as a surprise.

Price changes. If we change the price of your plan, we'll give you at least 30 days' notice by email before the new price applies to you, and you can cancel before it takes effect.

Failed payments. If a renewal payment fails, we may retry it and will notify you. If we can't collect payment after a reasonable period, your subscription will be paused or canceled.

Taxes. Prices may not include applicable sales taxes or VAT, which will be shown at checkout where required.

4. Cancellation and our 7-day money-back guarantee

Cancel anytime. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. When you cancel, you keep access through the end of your current billing period, and you won't be charged again.

7-day money-back guarantee. If Rebind Classics isn't for you, email us at support@rebindclassics.com within 7 days of your first purchase and we'll refund it in full. The guarantee applies once per customer, to your initial purchase of any plan; it doesn't apply to renewal charges or to repeat purchases after a prior refund. Our full Cancellation & Refund Policy has the details and is incorporated into these Terms.

Except as described in the guarantee, in our Cancellation & Refund Policy, or as required by law, payments are non-refundable and we don't provide refunds or credits for partial billing periods.

5. Your license to use our content

The Service gives you access to books, essays, audio commentary, video interviews, and related materials (the "Content"). While your subscription is active, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and consume the Content for your personal, non-commercial use.

This license is what you're paying for: access, not ownership. It ends when your subscription ends, and it doesn't include the right to:

  • copy, download (except where we provide a download feature), record, capture, scrape, or transcribe Content for use outside the Service;
  • redistribute, publicly perform, publicly display, sell, or sublicense Content;
  • create derivative works from the Content;
  • use the Content, in whole or in part, to train, fine-tune, or develop any artificial intelligence or machine learning model or dataset;
  • remove or alter copyright notices, watermarks, or attributions;
  • circumvent any technical protection or access-control measures.

Where we provide sharing features (for example, a shareable quote or excerpt), you may use them as designed, with attribution intact.

6. Ownership and third-party content

The Service and the Content, including all text, audio, video, software, design, and branding, are owned by Rebind Publishing LLC or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Some Content, including certain texts, translations, excerpts, and reference materials, is provided to Rebind by third-party publishers and rights holders under license, and those licensors retain their rights.

Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership of the Service or Content to you.

7. Our commentators and contributors

Rebind Classics features original commentary, essays, readings, and interviews from writers, scholars, and other contributors (our "Contributors"). Their names, voices, likenesses, and biographical details appear in the Service under agreements that protect them, and we take that protection seriously. You agree not to:

  • use any Contributor's name, image, voice, or likeness outside the Service without written permission;
  • impersonate a Contributor or misrepresent their views or identity;
  • extract or reproduce Contributor commentary, including by recording, transcription, or AI training, for any use outside the Service.

Violations of this section are treated as serious breaches of these Terms.

8. Community contributions

If the Service allows you to post comments, notes, or other material ("Submissions"), you retain ownership of your Submissions, but you grant Rebind a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display, and distribute them as part of operating the Service. You agree that your Submissions will not be unlawful, infringing, deceptive, harassing, or abusive, and that you have the rights to what you post. We may remove Submissions that violate these Terms.

9. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • violate any applicable law in connection with the Service;
  • access the Service by automated means (bots, scrapers, crawlers) or bulk-download Content;
  • interfere with or disrupt the Service, its servers, or its security features;
  • attempt to access accounts, systems, or data you're not authorized to access;
  • resell access to the Service or share your login credentials with others;
  • use the Service to send spam or unsolicited communications.

10. Suspension and termination

By you. You can stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time (see Section 4).

By us. If your use of the Service violates these Terms, in most cases we'll notify you, explain the issue, and give you an opportunity to fix it (typically within 7 days) before suspending or terminating your account. For egregious, repeated, or unlawful conduct (including credential sharing at scale, scraping, or misuse of Contributor material) we may suspend or terminate immediately.

If we terminate your account without cause (for example, if we discontinue the Service), we'll refund the unused portion of any prepaid subscription period.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 5–7 and 11–15) survive.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rebind disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We don't warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, though we work hard to make it all three.

Our Content is offered for general education and enjoyment. Commentary reflects the views of its Contributors and is not professional advice of any kind.

12. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rebind and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, use, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rebind's total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms will not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limitations of liability, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Rebind and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your violation of these Terms, your Submissions, or your misuse of the Service. This obligation doesn't apply to claims arising from our own breach of these Terms or violation of law.

14. Dispute resolution and governing law

Talk to us first. Most problems can be fixed with an email. Before initiating any formal legal action, you and Rebind each agree to contact the other (for you: support@rebindclassics.com) and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

Governing law and venue. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any legal action arising out of these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Missouri, and you consent to their jurisdiction, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court where you live.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If a change is material, we'll give you at least 30 days' notice by email or by prominent notice in the Service before it takes effect. Your continued use of the Service after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance. If you don't agree to updated Terms, cancel your subscription before they take effect and, if you're within a prepaid period, contact us about a prorated refund.

16. Everything else

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Cancellation & Refund Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Rebind regarding the Service. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision isn't a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, and will notify you if we do.
