Please read these terms carefully before using the services. By accessing the site, viewing any content or using any services available on the site (as each is defined below) you are agreeing to be bound by these terms, which together with our Privacy Policy and Customer Support Policies, governs our relationship with you in relation to the site.
Basically,
By using SensorMaestros.com you agree to all the terms on this page.
II. Description of Service
The Site is an online retailer of electronics assemblies, components, and accessories, as well as an online community which enables customers and visitors to share comments, opinions and ideas, participate in contests and promotions, and access support materials provided on the Site (“Services”). Services include, but are not limited to, any service and/or content SensorMaestros makes available to or performs for you, as well as the offering of any materials displayed, transmitted or performed on the Site or through the Services. Content (“Content”) includes, but is not limited to text, user comments, information, data, graphics, news articles, images, illustrations, software, and downloads.
Your access to the Site may be interrupted as a result of repair to or maintenance on the Site, or due to equipment malfunction, or any other reason that may be beyond the control of SensorMaestros. SensorMaestros reserves the right, at its sole discretion and without prior notice, to suspend availability of the Site and/or any Service and/or remove any Content at any time. SensorMaestros may also impose limits on certain features and Services or restrict your access to parts of or all of the Site and the Services without notice.
Basically,
SensorMaestros.com is a site where you can buy stuff and participate in an online community. Sometimes the site will break or otherwise be inaccessible, and this may happen without warning.
III. Registration
In order to access the full set of Services you are required to open an account with SensorMaestros. If purchasing goods as a guest you are required to provide a valid email address in addition to valid billing and shipping information, but your access to all other services will be restricted (this will create a “guest” account that will contain no information other than your email address and order information). To access all Services you must open an account and select a password. Maintaining the security and confidentiality of your user account password is your responsibility. Additional registration information you provide is optional except where explicitly designated. Deliberately providing false registration information may constitute a breach of the Terms, which may result in immediate termination of your SensorMaestros account.
You may optionally select a user name for your account, called an Alias. You may not use an Alias already in use by another user. If you use as an Alias a name that is offensive, vulgar, a registered trade mark or anything that is otherwise not legally available for your use this may result in you being denied use of that Alias or losing access to your user account.
Services are available only to individuals who are either (i) at least 18 years old, or (ii) at least 13 years old, and who are authorized to access the Site by a parent or legal guardian. If you have authorized a minor to use the Site, you are responsible for the online conduct of such minor, and the consequences of any misuse of the Site by the minor.
Basically,
You can buy stuff as a guest but then won’t have access to stuff people with regular accounts have, like posting comments or making wish lists. To use all site features you need to create a full account without violating the rights of others.
IV. Products and Content
All features, content, specifications, products and prices of products and services described or depicted on the Site are subject to change at any time without notice. Certain weights, measures and similar descriptions are approximate and are provided for convenience purposes only. SensorMaestros makes all reasonable efforts to accurately display the attributes of our products, including the applicable colors; however, the actual color you see will depend on your computer system, and we cannot guarantee that your computer will accurately display such colors. The inclusion of any products or services on the Site at a particular time does not imply or warrant that these products or services will be available at any time. It is your responsibility to ascertain and obey all applicable local, state, federal and international laws (including minimum age requirements) in regard to the possession, use and sale of any item purchased from the Site. By placing an order, you represent that the products ordered will be used only in a lawful manner.
We attempt to ensure that information on this Site is complete, accurate and current. Despite our efforts, the information on the Site may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete or out of date. We make no representation as to the completeness, accuracy or currentness of any information on the Site. For example, products included on the Site may be unavailable, may have different attributes than those listed, or may actually carry a different price than that stated on the Site. In addition, we may make changes in information about price and availability without notice. While it is our practice to confirm orders by email, the receipt of an email order confirmation does not constitute our acceptance of an order or our confirmation of an offer to sell a product or service. We reserve the right, without prior notice, to limit the order quantity on any product or service and/or to refuse service to any customer. We also may require verification of information prior to the acceptance and/or shipment of any order.
Basically,
The stuff we sell today may not be for sale tomorrow at the same price, or with the same specifications, or for sale at all. We do our best to portray our products accurately but can be wrong sometimes. You won’t use anything you buy from us to break any laws.

SensorMaestros accepts returns for any unmodified product for any reason within 90 calendar days from the date of receipt of merchandise. After such time, requests for return will be considered but are not guaranteed to be accepted. “Unmodified” means a product that is in the same condition in which it was received. See our Returns Policy for more detail.
Basically,
We only ship stuff where we’re legally allowed to ship stuff. We accept returns but not if you didn’t read the manual and fried your board. More details can be found in our Shipping and Returns policies.

XVI. Questions?
If you do not understand any of these Terms of Service or if you have any questions or comments, we invite you to contact our Customer Service Department
Returns
We want you to love your new parts and gadgets! Sometimes your project changes or something is not working the way you thought it would. Never fear, we are here to help!
90 day unmodified return policy
If you are not 100% satisfied with your order, we will be happy to authorize a return for any unused and unmodified items purchased within 90 days.
Modified product return policy
If you have modified your part and something goes wrong or you aren’t satisfied with your item, our fantastic team of dedicated technicians can help trouble shoot and offer advice to determine if your parts are defective.
In the event that something is determined to be a manufacturer error or failure due to defective materials, we will repair, return or exchange the item(s) as needed.
Damaged in Shipment
Please email right away. Include a description of the damages and pictures of the damaged items/packaging. This information is very helpful to us in assessing how we package our orders and helps prevent similar problems in the future. Replacements will be arranged with Customer Service as needed.
General Return Guidelines
- All RMAs must be authorized with us prior to sending any returns back.
- Returns must include any accessories, documentation, etc. included with the product. Your return may be denied if incomplete or damaged.
- Please do not remove, desolder, or otherwise modify any connected items before contacting Tech Support. We are here to help!
- Eligibility for return of modified items is determined on a case-by-case basis; we can not guarantee eligibility for modified items.
- Returns may take up to 2 weeks to process, not including transit times.
- Replacement orders can not be modified to include different or additional parts.
- SensorMaestros will pay/refund return shipping charges if the damage is found to be related to a manufacture error.
