Customer information / Policy updates

Updates to our website policies.

We are updating three of the documents that govern this website and our sales to you. Each new version is linked below, with a plain summary of what changed. Nothing is required of you, and the versions currently in force stay in effect until December 7, 2026.

What changed

Three documents, one effective date.

Each document has been rewritten for accuracy against how we actually do business today, including our mobile apps and the AI assistant on our website. The summaries below are plain language. The full document is what governs.

Everything on this page takes effect on December 7, 2026. Until then, the policies in force are the ones listed under Prior versions.

01 / Privacy
Privacy Policy

Now covers the website, our email, the Tacoma Screw mobile apps, and Bolt, the AI assistant. A new section explains what the assistant collects, how long a conversation is kept, and what happens when your question is passed to a person.

We state how long we keep each kind of record, and we extend the same privacy rights to every US resident rather than only to residents of states that require them. We do not sell your personal information.

02 / Sales
Conditions of Sale

Returns now have a time limit. Requests must be made within 90 days of the invoice date, with an approval path for exceptions. Defective product, items shipped in error, and warranty claims are not affected by this limit.

Claims now have deadlines. Report shortages and concealed damage within 14 days of receipt, and billing or pricing discrepancies within 30 days of the invoice date.

We have added standard terms on warranty, liability, and when an order is accepted, which our previous version did not address. These limit what we are responsible for, so they are worth reading.

Claims may only be brought individually, not as part of a class or representative action.

We also state the returned check fee, how payments are applied, and what is required to set an account tax exempt. We removed two provisions that did not reflect how we do business: a security interest in goods sold, which we have never exercised, and a quantity variance allowance for machined parts, since customers receive the quantity ordered.

03 / Website
Terms of Use

Now covers the mobile apps and the AI assistant alongside the website. Adds terms on account security, acceptable use, intellectual property, and product information, and sets out the limits of our liability for the site itself.

It also explains that nothing the AI assistant says is a quote, a price or availability commitment, or engineering advice, and provides that claims may only be brought individually rather than as part of a class or representative action.

What this means

For your orders.

The version of the Conditions of Sale in effect on the date we accept your order is the version that applies to that order. Orders we accept before December 7, 2026 are governed by the current conditions. Orders we accept on or after that date are governed by the new ones, including orders placed against a quotation issued earlier.
