POST MODERN SOCIETY®
Culture for the New World
Last updated: July 18, 2026
These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of postmodernsociety.com and any products, content, features, or services made available through the website.
The website is operated by POST MODERN SOCIETY® (“POST MODERN SOCIETY,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By visiting the website, placing an order, submitting information, or otherwise using the website, you agree to these Terms of Service and any policies referenced within them.
If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, do not use the website or purchase products through it.
1. Our Online Store
Our online store is hosted by Shopify, which provides the ecommerce platform that allows us to offer products and services to you.
Certain products may be manufactured, printed, packed, and shipped through Printify and participating third-party print providers. Shipping carriers, payment processors, and other service providers may also assist in completing transactions and delivering orders.
Shopify, Printify, print providers, payment processors, and shipping carriers are separate service providers. They are not the seller of products purchased directly from POST MODERN SOCIETY® through this website unless expressly stated otherwise.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least the age of majority in your state or place of residence to enter into a binding purchase agreement through the website.
A person who has not reached the applicable age of majority may use the website or make a purchase only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian.
By using the website, you represent that you have the legal capacity and authority necessary to agree to these Terms of Service.
3. Customer Accounts
Certain website features may allow or require you to create a customer account.
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to update that information when necessary.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for activity conducted through your account. Notify us promptly if you believe your account or login information has been accessed or used without authorization.
We may suspend or terminate an account when we reasonably believe it has been used fraudulently, unlawfully, abusively, or in violation of these Terms.
4. Product Information
We make reasonable efforts to describe and display products accurately. Product descriptions, photographs, graphics, colors, measurements, sizing information, prices, and availability are provided for general informational purposes.
The colors displayed on your screen may differ from the physical product because of device settings, screen calibration, lighting, printing processes, fabric composition, and normal production variation.
Because products may be produced individually through print-on-demand fulfillment, minor differences in color, placement, alignment, print appearance, garment measurements, or finish may occur between products or production runs. Minor variations that do not materially affect the product’s intended use are not necessarily defects.
Size charts and measurements are estimates supplied to help you select a product. You are responsible for reviewing available size information before placing an order.
We may update product descriptions, specifications, images, pricing, and availability without prior notice.
5. Product Availability
Products and product variations may be available in limited quantities or subject to availability from third-party suppliers and print providers.
We do not guarantee that any product, size, color, design, or variation will remain available.
We may discontinue a product, change a supplier, use a different print provider, limit quantities, or decline an order when reasonably necessary.
6. Prices, Taxes, and Charges
Unless otherwise stated, prices displayed on the website are shown in United States dollars.
Product prices may change without prior notice. A price change will not normally affect an order already accepted by us, except where correction is required because of an obvious pricing, technical, or listing error.
Shipping costs, taxes, duties, customs charges, and other applicable fees may be calculated and displayed during checkout.
You are responsible for all charges presented and accepted during checkout, as well as any customs duties, import taxes, brokerage fees, or similar charges imposed by the destination country or local authority.
We reserve the right to correct pricing, product, promotional, or checkout errors. If an error affects an order, we may contact you for instructions or cancel the affected order and issue an appropriate refund.
7. Placing an Order
By placing an order, you offer to purchase the selected products under these Terms and certify that the order information you provide is accurate.
An automated order confirmation acknowledges that we received your order. It does not necessarily mean that the order has been accepted, approved, or sent to production.
We may accept, reject, limit, place on hold, or cancel an order for reasons including:
- Product or material unavailability
- Pricing, listing, or technical errors
- Incomplete or inaccurate customer information
- Payment authorization failure
- Suspected fraud or unauthorized activity
- Unusual purchasing patterns
- Shipping restrictions
- Violation of these Terms or another store policy
- Operational or fulfillment limitations
If we cancel an order after payment has been successfully collected, we will issue an appropriate refund to the original payment method, subject to payment-provider processing times.
8. Payment
You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate billing and payment information.
Payments are processed through Shopify and the payment providers available during checkout. Your use of a payment method may also be governed by the terms and privacy practices of the applicable payment provider or financial institution.
By submitting payment information, you represent that you are authorized to use the selected payment method and authorize the applicable charges associated with your order.
We may require additional information or verification before accepting or fulfilling an order.
9. Promotions and Discount Codes
Promotions, discount codes, and special offers may be subject to additional rules, eligibility requirements, expiration dates, and product exclusions.
Unless expressly stated otherwise:
- Discounts cannot be exchanged for cash
- Discounts cannot be applied retroactively
- Only one discount may be used per order
- Discounts may not apply to taxes or shipping charges
- Discounts may be limited to specific products or customers
We may modify, suspend, or end a promotion when permitted by law. We may reject the use of a promotion obtained or used through fraud, manipulation, error, or violation of the promotion’s conditions.
10. Order Changes and Cancellations
Print-on-demand orders may enter production shortly after they are placed. Once production begins, an order may not be changeable or cancellable.
Contact us as soon as possible if you need to request a change or cancellation. We will attempt to assist, but we cannot guarantee that a request can be completed before production or fulfillment begins.
Changes to an address, size, color, design, or product are not effective unless confirmed by us in writing.
11. Shipping and Delivery
Production and delivery dates are estimates and are not guarantees. Actual timing may be affected by product availability, order volume, print-provider capacity, carrier delays, weather, customs processing, incorrect addresses, and events outside our reasonable control.
Separate products within the same order may be produced or shipped by different providers. They may arrive in separate packages and at different times.
You are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address. Additional charges resulting from an incorrect, incomplete, outdated, or undeliverable address may be your responsibility.
Additional information concerning production, shipping, tracking, delivery, international orders, and lost packages appears in our Shipping Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms.
12. Returns, Replacements, and Refunds
Returns, replacements, refunds, damaged products, incorrect products, and other order concerns are governed by our Refund & Return Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms.
Because many products are created through print-on-demand production, return and cancellation rules may differ from those used by retailers that hold pre-produced inventory.
Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory consumer right that cannot legally be waived.
13. Customer Communications
When you place an order or contact us, we may send transactional or service-related communications, including order confirmations, production updates, shipping notices, support responses, security notices, and policy updates.
When you join the Signal or otherwise consent to marketing, we may send promotional communications concerning POST MODERN SOCIETY®, The Shawnie Show, Shawnie’s music, The Signals apparel collection, Creative Signal Lab, and related projects.
You may unsubscribe from promotional emails through the unsubscribe link included in those messages. Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent us from sending necessary transactional or service communications.

Protected content may include:

You may access the website for personal, lawful, noncommercial use. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, publish, sell, license, create derivative works from, scrape, exploit, or use protected content for commercial purposes without prior written permission.
Purchasing a product does not transfer ownership of any trademark, copyright, design, artwork, character, story, or other intellectual-property right appearing on or connected with that product.
15. Customer Submissions
You may choose to send us reviews, suggestions, feedback, photographs, comments, messages, creative ideas, or other materials.
You retain ownership of content that you lawfully own. By voluntarily submitting content for public display, publication, promotion, or use in connection with our products or services, you grant us a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, display, adapt, distribute, and use that content for the purpose for which it was submitted and for related business, promotional, and operational purposes.

17. Third-Party Tools and Services
The website may use or provide access to third-party tools, applications, payment services, social platforms, embedded media, analytics services, or external websites.
Third-party services may be governed by separate terms and privacy policies. We do not control and are not responsible for the availability, security, accuracy, content, or practices of independent third parties.
Your use of a third-party service is at your discretion and may create a direct relationship between you and that third party.
18. Website Availability and Changes
We may update, modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue any part of the website, product catalog, content, or service at any time.
We do not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or free of errors.
Maintenance, platform changes, technical failures, security concerns, service-provider interruptions, and events outside our control may temporarily affect website access or functionality.
19. Accuracy of Website Information
We make reasonable efforts to maintain accurate and current information. However, website content may occasionally contain typographical errors, outdated information, omissions, or technical inaccuracies.
We may correct errors and update information without prior notice, including after an order has been submitted. If a correction materially affects your accepted order, we will take reasonable steps to notify you or provide an appropriate remedy.
20. Disclaimer of Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the website and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
Except for warranties expressly provided by us or required by applicable law, we disclaim implied warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.
We do not warrant that:
- The website will operate without interruption or error
- All defects will be corrected immediately
- The website will be free from every harmful component
- Website content will always be complete or current
- A product will meet a purpose not expressly stated in its description
Some jurisdictions do not permit certain warranty exclusions. These exclusions apply only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
21. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, POST MODERN SOCIETY® and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages arising from or connected with your use of the website or purchase of a product.
This includes, where legally permitted, loss of profits, revenue, savings, data, goodwill, opportunity, or business interruption, even if the possibility of such damages was known.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for a claim relating to a product or order will not exceed the amount you paid for the product or order giving rise to the claim.
These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot legally be limited or excluded, including any non-waivable consumer right or liability arising from fraud, willful misconduct, or other conduct for which limitation is prohibited by law.
22. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless POST MODERN SOCIETY® and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and service providers from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and reasonable expenses arising from:
- Your material violation of these Terms
- Your unlawful or unauthorized use of the website
- Your infringement of another person’s rights
- Content or information you submit through the website
- Fraudulent, deceptive, or harmful conduct connected with your account or order
This section does not require you to indemnify any party for that party’s own unlawful conduct where such indemnification is prohibited.
23. Events Outside Our Control
We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by events outside our reasonable control.
These events may include severe weather, natural disasters, epidemics, labor disputes, transportation interruptions, customs delays, carrier disruptions, supplier failures, material shortages, utility failures, cyberattacks, government actions, civil unrest, war, or widespread technical outages.
We will make reasonable efforts to communicate material order issues and provide an appropriate response under the circumstances.
24. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the website or certain services if you materially violate these Terms, use the website unlawfully, threaten website security, engage in fraud, or create unreasonable risk or harm.
Termination does not eliminate payment obligations or other responsibilities that arose before termination.
Provisions that logically should continue after termination, including intellectual-property protections, disclaimers, liability limitations, indemnification duties, and dispute provisions, will remain effective.
25. Governing Law
These Terms and any dispute arising from them are governed by the laws of the State of Florida and applicable United States federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Nothing in this section prevents a consumer from relying on mandatory rights provided by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the consumer resides when those rights legally apply.
26. Dispute Resolution
Before filing a formal legal claim concerning an order or the website, you agree to make a good-faith effort to contact us and provide a reasonable opportunity to investigate and resolve the issue.
Contacting us informally does not eliminate or shorten a legal deadline that cannot lawfully be modified.
These Terms do not require mandatory arbitration and do not contain a class-action waiver.
27. Severability
If a court or other authority determines that any provision of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the greatest extent legally permitted.
The remaining provisions will continue in effect unless the removal of the invalid provision would defeat the essential purpose of these Terms.
28. No Waiver
A delay or failure to enforce any provision of these Terms does not waive our right to enforce that provision or another provision later.
29. Assignment
You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent.
We may assign or transfer our rights and obligations in connection with a merger, restructuring, financing, sale, transfer of assets, or other lawful business transaction.
30. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, Refund & Return Policy, and other policies expressly referenced on the website, form the entire agreement between you and us concerning your use of the website and purchases made through it.
If a product, promotion, or service includes additional terms, those additional terms will also apply. If there is a direct conflict, the more specific terms will control for that product, promotion, or service.
31. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these Terms to reflect changes in our operations, products, services, technology, legal obligations, or business practices.
Revised Terms will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Changes apply prospectively from the date posted unless applicable law requires otherwise.
Your continued use of the website after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of those revised Terms.
