Legal · Terms of Service

Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of the Young Cotton website. By using this site, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.

Editorial content

Everything published on this site is editorial content and represents the opinions of the magazine. Our scores and rankings are our published judgements, formed from the records described in our Methodology. They are not guarantees that a product will suit you, perform in a particular way or remain available.

Prices and availability

Prices and availability shown on this site are checked on the cadence described in our Methodology, and retailers may change them at any time. We do not sell products ourselves: any purchase you make is a transaction between you and the retailer, governed by the retailer's terms, and the price at the retailer's checkout is the one that applies.

Commerce links

Some links on this site are commerce links, and the magazine may earn a commission if you buy through one, at no additional cost to you. How that works, and how it never influences our scores, is set out in our Disclosure.

Intellectual property

The content of this site, including text, scores, data and design, belongs to Young Cotton or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other laws. You may quote brief extracts with credit to Young Cotton and a link back to the original page. You may not republish our articles or data in whole, or use them for commercial purposes, without our written permission.

Acceptable use

You agree to use this site only for lawful purposes. You may not interfere with the operation of the site, attempt to gain unauthorised access to it, or use automated means to extract its content in bulk.

Third-party links

This site links to websites we do not own or control. We are not responsible for their content, products or practices, and a link does not imply endorsement of everything on the linked site.

No warranty

This site and its content are provided as is, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We work to keep our information accurate and current, but we do not warrant that the site will be error free, complete or uninterrupted.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Young Cotton will not be liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of this site or your reliance on its content, including purchases made through links on the site.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, the revised terms will be posted on this page with a new date at the bottom, and your continued use of the site will indicate your acceptance of the changes.
