Terms of Use

1. Website operator

TERRA SANTA EPHESUS LLC is a United States company established in Florida. Terra Santa Ephesus is our brand. Our contact details are provided below.

2. Purpose of the website

This website presents our collections and information about Ephesus and the House of Virgin Mary. It currently supports information requests; account registration, online checkout and payment processing are not enabled. Sending an enquiry does not place an order or create a purchase contract.

3. Faith and historical information

Religious traditions, devotional interpretations and historical findings are described in their respective contexts. A belief or tradition should not be understood as a proven archaeological fact. Our products express faith, remembrance and spiritual connection; they do not promise miracles, healing or any particular spiritual or medical result and are not a substitute for medical care.

4. Product information and enquiries

Images illustrate the products and presentation; colour and appearance can vary with lighting and screens. Before any purchase, the actual product, contents, dimensions, price, availability, delivery and return conditions must be confirmed separately. We do not use these website terms to impose undisclosed sales conditions.

Contact messages are submitted through the website to our email service. The newsletter requires consent and email confirmation before activation and includes an unsubscribe option.

5. Origin, permissions and documents

Our Türkiye-sourced products are offered internationally within the scope of the relevant permissions and documentation. Statements about origin, licences, registrations or rights refer to the scope of the corresponding documents. A certificate does not imply unrestricted import permission in every destination or endorsement by a government, church or religious authority unless the relevant document expressly provides it. Documents made available for public viewing are presented in the Certificate section; displaying them does not transfer the rights they concern.

6. Intellectual property

Our brand assets, original text, photographs and designs are protected to the extent that we own or license the relevant rights. Third-party material remains subject to its owners’ rights and the stated source or licence. You may view the website for personal information. Commercial reproduction, distribution or reuse of protected material requires permission unless an applicable legal exception allows it. A product purchase does not itself transfer intellectual-property rights.

7. Acceptable use

Do not impersonate others, submit unlawful or misleading material, distribute malicious software, attempt unauthorised access or interfere with the website. Respect other people’s privacy and applicable intellectual-property rights. Access that threatens the security or lawful operation of the service may be restricted where appropriate.

8. External websites and privacy

Links to sources, maps and social networks lead to independent services with their own terms and privacy practices. A link alone does not establish endorsement or control over their content. Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy explain the current handling of information and external technologies.

9. Availability and responsibility

We take reasonable care with website information and may correct errors or update content. Uninterrupted availability and error-free operation cannot be guaranteed. Any restriction of responsibility applies only to the extent permitted by law. These terms do not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including fraud, intentional wrongdoing or applicable mandatory consumer protections.

10. Governing law and your rights

These website terms are governed by Florida law and applicable United States federal law, subject to mandatory laws that protect you. If you are a consumer in another jurisdiction, this choice does not remove protections or court-access rights that applicable law gives you. You may contact us to seek a resolution; doing so does not prevent you from exercising legal remedies. These terms do not require arbitration or waive class-action rights.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the website changes and will revise the date above. Updates apply prospectively and do not retrospectively change previously agreed transactions. New sales or other services will require the relevant conditions to be made available before use. Contact us if you need clarification.
