Terms of Use

Effective date: September 17, 2026

MalibuStrings.com is operated by Odette Christiane, LLC under the Malibu Strings and Malibu String Bikini Company names. In these Terms, “Malibu Strings,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to that company.

These Terms explain the conditions for using our website, purchasing our products, and submitting material to us. When we present these Terms and ask you to expressly accept them, your acceptance forms an agreement with us. Our Privacy and Security Statement (https://www.malibustrings.com/privacy.html) explains how we handle personal information.

Who may use our services

Our website features adult swimwear and adult modeling images, including nudity, and is intended for adults. You must be at least 18 and legally able to enter a contract to place an order or submit material for publication. Everyone depicted in a modeling submission must have been at least 18 when the images or video were created.

Orders and product information

Please review your selected style, size, color, quantity, shipping address, and order total before purchasing. Our garments are handmade to order. Measurements may vary within the tolerances described for a product, and the appearance of colors can vary between screens. These variations do not excuse supplying an item that materially differs from its description.

Prices are in U.S. dollars unless stated otherwise. Applicable taxes and shipping charges are disclosed before you place your order. Prices include mandatory charges that applicable law requires us to include in the advertised price. Optional customization charges are disclosed before you authorize them.

If we discover an availability, description, or pricing error affecting an order, we will contact you to resolve it. We will not substitute a materially different product or increase your authorized charge without your agreement. If an order is canceled, we will refund any payment due for the canceled items and associated charges as required by law.

Shipping and delays

Current production and shipping information appears on our Service page (https://www.malibustrings.com/service.html) and in the information presented when you order. Please review it before purchasing. Delivery estimates depend on the destination and shipping method.

If we cannot ship within the time promised when you ordered, we will notify you, explain the expected delay, and offer the choice of agreeing to the delay or canceling the affected order for a prompt refund. We will obtain any consent required by law and cancel and refund the affected order when required consent is not obtained. A final-sale policy does not eliminate these rights.

International orders may be subject to import duties, taxes, or carrier charges imposed at the destination. Any responsibility assigned to you for those charges will be disclosed before purchase, subject to applicable law.

Final sales and the Remake Program

Because our garments are made to order and are intimate apparel, we do not offer discretionary refunds or traditional exchanges for a change of mind or a sizing preference. Garment sales are final, subject to the exceptions below and any rights that applicable law gives you.

If an item does not fit as expected, our Remake Program allows you to purchase the same item in a different size at a 70% discount from its original price. You keep the original garment. Contact [email protected] for availability, any applicable shipping charges, and the total cost before ordering a remake.

The final-sale policy and Remake Program do not replace your rights concerning defective, damaged, incorrectly supplied, or materially misdescribed goods, or any refund or cancellation right required by law. Please contact [email protected] promptly about a problem and include your order number and a description. Any additional written product warranty continues to apply according to its lawful terms. We do not require you to purchase a remake to obtain a remedy to which you are otherwise entitled.

Gift certificates are subject to their disclosed terms and applicable law, including any mandatory cash-redemption rights. The garment final-sale policy does not override those rights.

Website content and permitted use

Our website design, product descriptions, photographs, videos, logos, and other content may be protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Rights belong to Malibu Strings or the respective rights holders. You may view the website and keep copies reasonably needed for personal shopping and recordkeeping.

Except where the law permits it, you may not reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, or commercially exploit website content without permission from the relevant rights holder. No trademark or other ownership right is transferred to you by using the website. These Terms do not restrict fair use or other legally protected uses.

You must not interfere with website security or operation, access another person's account without permission, introduce malicious software, impersonate someone, place fraudulent orders, or use the website for unlawful purposes.

Customer photos and videos

Sending us a photograph or video does not, by itself, transfer its copyright to us. Publication and promotional use require appropriate permission from the copyright owner and each identifiable person depicted. If you did not take an image yourself, permission from the photographer may be required even if you are the person pictured.

When you submit material for consideration, you authorize us to receive and review it for that purpose. Any permission to publish, edit, advertise with, or otherwise reuse it must be recorded in the submission agreement or another express agreement accepted by the necessary rights holders. That agreement should identify the permitted uses and any payment or gift-certificate award. A separate signed agreement governs any agreed transfer of copyright.

You must not submit material involving a minor, material used without the necessary permissions, or material that infringes another person's privacy, publicity, or intellectual-property rights. We may decline a submission or remove material for legal, safety, or editorial reasons. Selection and awards are governed by the rules presented for the applicable submission program.

Reviews and feedback

You retain your rights in your reviews and feedback. Nothing in these Terms prevents you from sharing an honest opinion about our products, service, or business, or imposes a penalty for a lawful review. We do not require you to transfer ownership of a review as a condition of purchasing from us.

Other services and links

Our website uses outside providers for functions such as shopping-cart services, payments, and newsletter subscriptions. It may also link to social networks or other websites. Those providers may have their own terms and privacy notices. A link does not give us control over another website or waive any obligation we have to you.

Website availability and legal protections

We work to keep the website accurate and available, but interruptions and errors can occur. To the extent permitted by law, we do not warrant that the website will always be uninterrupted or error-free. This statement concerns website operation and does not disclaim product warranties or consumer remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, violation of law, or any other liability that applicable law does not permit us to exclude or limit. Nothing waives your nonwaivable consumer rights.

California law and disputes

California law governs these Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law. Unless a law gives you the right to proceed elsewhere, disputes concerning these Terms may be brought in the appropriate state courts in Los Angeles County, California, or the United States District Court for the Central District of California. This provision does not eliminate a right to use small-claims court or a nonwaivable protection under the law of your place of residence.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms by posting a revised version and effective date. Material changes apply prospectively, and we will obtain renewed agreement when required. An update does not retroactively change an existing order or a separately signed agreement. If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
