Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Academic Gifts website (the “Site”). By using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Last updated: April 2026.

About the Site

Academic Gifts provides informational and curated content about gift ideas for students, academics, and related occasions. The Site may display product information, images, and links to third-party merchants.

We are not the seller of record for products featured on third-party sites. Orders, payments, personalisation, shipping, returns, refunds, and customer service for those products are handled solely by the relevant third party (for example Zazzle or other partners), under their terms and policies.

Eligibility

You must be legally able to enter a binding agreement in your jurisdiction to use the Site. If you use the Site on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation.

Some links on the Site may be affiliate or referral links. If you purchase after clicking such a link, we may receive a commission or other benefit at no extra cost to you. This does not affect the price you pay on the merchant’s site. Our editorial choices remain aimed at relevance to the Site’s audience.

Intellectual property

The Site’s branding, layout, text, graphics, and original content are owned by Academic Gifts or its licensors and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, scrape, or republish substantial parts of the Site for commercial use without our prior written consent.

Product images and descriptions shown on the Site may be provided by third parties or under licence. All trademarks belong to their respective owners.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law or infringes others’ rights
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Site, its systems, or connected services
  • Introduce malware, overload infrastructure, or interfere with other users
  • Scrape or harvest data from the Site in bulk without permission
  • Misrepresent your affiliation with Academic Gifts or any third-party brand

We may suspend or block access if we reasonably believe these rules are broken.

Third-party websites and services

The Site contains links to third-party websites. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices. Your use of third-party sites is at your own risk and subject to their terms and privacy policies. We encourage you to read them before you purchase or submit personal data.

Product information

Descriptions, prices, availability, and images are shown for informational purposes and may come from feeds or third parties. They may be inaccurate or out of date. Always confirm details (including price, shipping, and personalisation options) on the merchant’s website before you buy.

Disclaimers

The Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:

  • Academic Gifts and its operators, contributors, and suppliers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or business opportunities, arising from your use of the Site or third-party sites linked from it
  • Our total liability for any claim arising from these Terms or the Site shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us directly for use of the Site in the twelve months before the claim (if any), or (b) fifty pounds sterling (£50)

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law (including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or other liabilities that may not be limited in your jurisdiction).

Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Academic Gifts and its operators from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the Site or violation of these Terms.

Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date will change when we publish a revision. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms, where permitted by law. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice where appropriate.

Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The courts of England and Wales shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction over disputes, subject to mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence where they apply and cannot be waived.

If you are a consumer in the European Union or United Kingdom, you may also have rights under local mandatory law.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.

Entire agreement

These Terms (together with our Privacy Policy) constitute the entire agreement between you and Academic Gifts regarding use of the Site, except where we expressly state otherwise.
