Who We Share It With

Only the companies that help us run the store: Shopify (store and checkout), our fulfillment partners (to ship your order), and our email provider. We don't sell your personal information.

Our store runs on Shopify, which also processes your information. See how Shopify handles it at the Shopify Privacy Portal.

Terms of Service

These terms cover your use of totaleffort.com and anything you buy from it. The store is operated by Beyond Category. By using the store, you agree to these terms.

Orders

Your order is an offer to buy. We may decline or cancel an order if an item is unavailable, a price was listed in error, or we suspect fraud. If we cancel, you get a full refund.

Pre-Orders

Items with a ship date are pre-orders. You're charged when you order, and the item ships in the window shown on the product page. If a date moves, we'll email you the new one.

Products and Pricing

We describe products as accurately as we can, but colors and details may vary slightly. Prices and availability can change without notice.

Checkout

Payments are processed through Shopify's secure checkout, under Shopify's own terms.

Intellectual Property

All content on the site, including text, images, music, logos and designs, belongs to Total Effort or its licensors and can't be used without permission.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential damages from using the site or our products.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California.

Changes

We may update these terms. Using the store after an update means you accept it.

Shipping Policy

When Your Order Ships

• T-shirts ship from Los Angeles within 2-4 business days.
• Pre-order items (vinyl, CD, book, candle) ship in the window shown on the product page and in your cart.
• Pre-order items in the same order ship together once all of them are ready. T-shirts ship on their own, and books and vinyl are packed separately, so your order may arrive in more than one package.

You'll get an email with tracking when each package ships.

Rates

Shipping options and costs are calculated at checkout based on where you are and what's in your cart. Delivery times shown at checkout are estimates.

International Orders

We ship worldwide, except to Germany for now. Import duties and taxes aren't collected at checkout. Your carrier may charge them when your package arrives, and they're the recipient's responsibility.

Lost or Delayed Packages

If your package is late or looks lost, email m@totaleffort.com with your order number and we'll help track it down.

Refund Policy

All sales are final. We don't accept returns or exchanges, and orders can't be cancelled once placed.

Damaged or Faulty Items

If your item arrives damaged or faulty, email m@totaleffort.com within 7 days of delivery with your order number and photos, and we'll make it right.
