Licensor: Levi Eck, samestateguide@outlook.com. Sold by Levi Eck through Link (Sold through Link, LLC, a Stripe affiliate), the merchant of record, which handles checkout, payment, tax and receipts under the Sold Through Link Terms (https://link.com/terms#sold-through-link-terms). Effective: October 20, 2026. These terms cover the Same State Guide, called "the guide" here.
1. What you're buying. You're buying a license to use the guide. You aren't buying the guide's copyright. I sell it to you. Link (Sold through Link, LLC, a Stripe affiliate) is the merchant of record. It takes your payment, handles tax and receipts, and handles payment support and refunds under its Sold Through Link Terms (https://link.com/terms#sold-through-link-terms). These terms are between you and me, Levi Eck, and cover how you may use the guide.
2. What you may do. You get a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to read, download, print and keep the guide for yourself, on as many of your own devices as you like, and to use what it teaches to build your own projects. If a business buys it, one named person at that business may use it.
3. What you may not do.
Short quotes with credit, for example in a review, are fine.
4. The code is separate. The free Same State code template is licensed under the Apache License 2.0. Its own LICENSE, NOTICE and THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md files govern it, not these terms. You don't need to buy the guide to use the code.
5. Third-party tools and models. The guide refers to tools and services from other companies, such as Grok Bot, Cursor, Hugging Face, Microsoft, model publishers and cloud GPU providers. You use them under their own terms, licenses and pricing. You're responsible for your own accounts and bills with them. I'm not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by any of them, and their names belong to their owners.
6. No promise of results or income. The guide teaches how I built mine. It isn't a promise of a result, savings, a business, a job or income. What you get depends on your notes, hardware, setup and effort.
7. How the guide was written. Written by Levi Eck with help from AI (Grok Bot). Levi chose what goes in and reviewed it.
8. Refunds. Digital download, sold through Link (Sold through Link, LLC, a Stripe affiliate), the merchant of record, under the Sold Through Link Terms. Refunds aren't offered for a change of mind, except where the law or Link's refund policy provides otherwise. For example, buyers in the EU and UK can cancel within 14 days under Link's terms. If the files don't work, email samestateguide@outlook.com and I'll fix it.
9. Updates. I may fix or update the guide. Updates are at my discretion; I don't promise any. I'm not obligated to provide support beyond fixing files that don't work.
10. As-is; no warranty. The guide is provided "as is." To the fullest extent the law allows, I disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. You're responsible for your own data, backups, security, accounts and cloud costs. Some places don't allow these disclaimers, so some of them may not apply to you.
11. Limit of liability. To the fullest extent the law allows, I'm not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost data, profits or cloud charges. My total liability for any claim about the guide is limited to what you paid for it. This doesn't limit liability that can't be limited by law, such as for fraud or intentional misconduct.
12. Indemnity. If you misuse the guide or break section 3, and someone makes a claim against me because of it, you'll cover my reasonable costs of that claim.
13. Ending the license. Your license ends automatically if you break these terms. Sections 4 through 14 still apply after that.
14. Law. California law governs these terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts in Riverside County, California, handle any dispute between you and me, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring a claim at home. Nothing here takes away rights you have under consumer laws that can't be waived. Checkout, payment and Link's refund handling are governed by Link's Sold Through Link Terms.
15. Everything else. These terms are the whole agreement between you and me about the guide. Link's Sold Through Link Terms separately cover checkout, payment and Link's refunds. If Link's refund policy gives you more than section 8, Link's policy applies. If a part of these terms is unenforceable, the rest still applies. I may update these terms for future purchases, and the version you accepted applies to your purchase. Questions: samestateguide@outlook.com (Licensor: Levi Eck).
