Store Terms
By purchasing from this store, you agree to these terms. If you have questions, contact support@discursive.com.
Digital Products
Digital products (EPUB and PDF bundles) are delivered by email with download links. Links expire 72 hours after purchase. Save your files promptly.
You may use digital files on your personal devices (e-readers, tablets, phones, computers). You may not redistribute, resell, or share purchased files with others.
Digital File Watermarking
Purchased digital files include purchaser identification embedded in the file metadata. This helps protect copyright by tracing unauthorized copies back to the original purchaser. The watermark does not affect readability or file functionality in any way.
- PDF files include your email address and order ID in the document metadata (Subject and Keywords fields).
- EPUB files include your email address, order ID, and purchase date in the publication metadata.
This information is stored only in the file itself and in our order records. It is not shared with third parties except as required to process your order (e.g., Stripe for payment handling).
Physical Products
Physical products (card decks) are shipped to the address you provide at checkout. Shipping times vary by carrier and destination. You will receive tracking information by email when your order ships.
Refunds
Digital products are non-refundable once downloaded. If you experience a technical issue with your download, contact support@discursive.com and we will work to resolve it. Physical products may be returned within 14 days of delivery if unopened and in original condition. Contact us to arrange a return.
