Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: [20, 05, 2025]

Welcome to dearpersonbehindmehoodie.com (referred to as “DPBMH,” “the Website,” “Site,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). Our tagline is “Hoodies with Purpose, Crafted for You.” These Terms and Conditions (“Terms,” “T&Cs”) govern your access to and use of our Website and the services we provide.

By accessing, browsing, or using dearpersonbehindmehoodie.com, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, as well as our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must not use our Website.

1. Our Role and Service Description

Dear Person Behind Me Hoodie (DPBMH) operates as a curated platform and affiliate marketing website. Our primary service is to design and showcase unique, message-driven hoodies – “Hoodies with Purpose.” We provide you, the user, with information about these designs and facilitate your discovery of these products.

It is crucial to understand that DPBMH does not directly sell, manufacture, print, ship, or process payments for any of the physical hoodie products displayed on our Website. We do not handle inventory, returns, refunds, or customer service related to the purchase, quality, or delivery of these products.

Our Website serves as a bridge. We create the designs and then direct you to our third-party print-on-demand vendor partner, TeeChip.com (hereafter referred to as “TeeChip,” “Third-Party Vendor,” or “Vendor”), where you can purchase hoodies featuring our designs. When you decide to purchase a product, you will be redirected from our Website to TeeChip’s platform. The actual transaction, including payment, order fulfillment, manufacturing, and shipping, occurs directly between you and TeeChip. The contract of sale for any product is therefore established between you and TeeChip, not with DPBMH. TeeChip’s primary contact address is 2900 Shadeland Ave Suite B1, Indianapolis, IN 46219, and their support email is support@teechip.com.

2. Use of Our Website

You agree to use dearpersonbehindmehoodie.com only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not infringe the rights of, restrict, or inhibit anyone else’s use and enjoyment of the Website. Prohibited behavior includes harassing or causing distress or inconvenience to any other user, transmitting obscene or offensive content, or disrupting the normal flow of dialogue within our Website.

You must not misuse our Website by knowingly introducing viruses, trojans, worms, logic bombs, or other material that is malicious or technologically harmful. You must not attempt to gain unauthorized access to our Website, the server on which our Website is stored, or any server, computer, or database connected to our Website.

3. Third-Party Vendor (TeeChip) Websites and Transactions

Our Website contains links that will direct you to TeeChip’s website (TeeChip.com). This external site is not owned, operated, or controlled by DPBMH.

Responsibility: We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, legality, privacy policies, terms of use, or practices of TeeChip.com. The inclusion of any link to TeeChip is to facilitate your purchase of products featuring our designs; it does not imply endorsement by DPBMH beyond our partnership for design fulfillment.

Your Transactions: When you click on a product link and are redirected to TeeChip.com to make a purchase, your interaction and any subsequent transaction are solely between you and TeeChip. This includes, but is not limited to, order placement, payment processing, product manufacturing, quality control, shipping, delivery, and customer service inquiries.

Vendor’s Policies: We strongly advise you to carefully read TeeChip’s own policies before engaging in any transaction. These policies will govern your purchase and your rights and obligations concerning the product.

DPBMH’s policies do not apply to transactions conducted on TeeChip.com.

4. Product Information and Designs

DPBMH is responsible for the creation of the messages and visual designs featured on the hoodies showcased on our Website. We strive to display these designs and provide general product information as accurately as possible on our Site.

However, the physical hoodies themselves are manufactured, printed, and sold by TeeChip. Therefore:

  • Accuracy of Final Product: We do not warrant that product descriptions, colors, sizing, material quality, or other content related to the physical product, as provided by TeeChip, will be accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free on TeeChip’s site or in the final product you receive. Variations in screen displays can also affect color perception.
  • Quality and Fulfillment: DPBMH makes no representations or warranties regarding the quality, craftsmanship, durability, safety, or legality of the products offered for sale by TeeChip. All such aspects are the sole responsibility of TeeChip. Any claims or issues related to product defects, printing errors, or fulfillment must be directed to TeeChip via their contact page: https://teechip.com/contact or by emailing support@teechip.com.

The compilation of all content on this site is the exclusive property of DPBMH. Our designs are provided to TeeChip under license for the sole purpose of enabling the manufacture and sale of physical products bearing these designs to end consumers.

6. Custom Order Process

DPBMH may offer a service to facilitate custom hoodie designs. If you request a custom order:

  • We will consult with you on the design.
  • We will then create and set up this custom product listing on TeeChip.com.
  • You will be provided with a direct link to purchase your custom item from TeeChip.
  • The purchase, payment, production, shipping, and customer service for custom orders are managed entirely by TeeChip, under their specific terms (https://teechip.com/terms) and return policies (https://teechip.com/returns), which may differ for custom items.
  • DPBMH reserves the right to decline custom order requests that we deem offensive, hateful, infringing, or otherwise inappropriate and not in alignment with our brand’s positive ethos.
