Terms of use

The terms that apply when you use this site. Last updated 11 August 2026.

Agreement

By using Shelf & Sound you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. Shelf & Sound is published by Type 5 Marketing LLC.

What this site is, and is not

This site publishes information and opinion about subscription services. It is not financial, legal or professional advice, and it is not a substitute for reading the terms of any service before you buy it.

We are not Amazon, Audible, or any of the other services discussed here, and we have no relationship with them beyond the Amazon Associates participation described on our affiliate disclosure. We cannot act on your account, change your subscription, or resolve a billing issue.

Accuracy

We take accuracy seriously: every program term stated here is checked against the provider's own page and carries the date of that check, and facts we could not verify are marked as such rather than filled in. The method is on how we research.

Even so, the providers change their terms without notice, and information here may be out of date by the time you read it. The price, trial and eligibility shown to you at signup by Amazon or Audible are what govern your purchase, not anything written here. Always check before you commit.

If you find something wrong, please tell us — we will check and correct it.

Third-party services and links

This site links to Amazon, Audible, library services and other third parties. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, their terms, their availability or their privacy practices. Your dealings with them are between you and them.

Affiliate links

Some links here are affiliate links, marked with #ad and preceded by a disclosure. If you start a qualifying free trial through one, we may be paid a flat fee at no additional cost to you. This is set out in full on our affiliate disclosure.

Intellectual property

The text, layout and design of this site belong to Type 5 Marketing LLC unless stated otherwise. Photography is licensed stock, credited in our records. You may quote short extracts with attribution and a link. You may not republish substantial portions of the site without permission.

Amazon, Audible, Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, Prime and related marks belong to Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates. Other product and service names mentioned belong to their respective owners. Use of a name here is for identification and commentary and does not imply any endorsement or association.

Acceptable use

Do not use this site unlawfully, attempt to disrupt it, scrape it at a volume that degrades it for others, or misrepresent its content as your own.

Liability

This site is provided “as is”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Type 5 Marketing LLC is not liable for any loss arising from your use of the site or from reliance on its content, including any subscription decision you make. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Changes

We may update these terms. The current version always appears on this page with its date, and continuing to use the site means you accept the version published here.
