Terms of Service

Effective date: August 19 2026 · Last updated: August 19 2026

These Terms of Service (“terms”) govern your use of thedeclutterdesk.com (the “site”), operated by Jason Nguyen doing business as TheDeclutterDesk (“we,” “us,” or “our”), a US-based individually operated site. By visiting or using the site, you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the site.

Who we are

TheDeclutterDesk is an editorial site publishing decluttering, organizing, moving, and cleaning content, run by Jason Nguyen and Bin Nguyen. See our About page for more.

Using the site

The site and its content are for your personal, non-commercial use. You agree not to:

Copy, republish, or redistribute our articles, images, or downloadable resources without written permission
Scrape, data-mine, or use automated tools to extract content from the site at scale
Use the site in a way that could disable, overburden, or impair it, or interfere with anyone else’s use of it
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the site or its systems
Submit false, misleading, or harmful content through our contact form or any other input on the site

Content and intellectual property

All articles, frameworks (including the Keep-or-Toss System and its component parts), graphics, and original photography on this site are owned by TheDeclutterDesk unless otherwise noted, and are protected by copyright. You’re welcome to link to our articles or quote a short excerpt with credit and a link back. Reproducing full articles or worksheets elsewhere requires our written permission, email hello@thedeclutterdesk.com to ask.

Product names, brand names, and trademarks mentioned on the site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only.

Not professional advice

Our content shares general organizing, decluttering, moving, and cleaning information based on our own research and experience. It’s not a substitute for professional advice, whether that’s a licensed professional organizer, a moving company, a contractor, a hazardous materials disposal service, or a legal, financial, or medical professional. Always check the specifics of your situation with a qualified professional before making a decision, especially around structural changes, hazardous materials, or anything involving real financial or safety risk.

Affiliate links and monetization

Some links on this site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you make a purchase after clicking through, at no extra cost to you. See our Affiliate Disclosure for the full details. We only recommend products we believe genuinely fit the system being described in that article.

Third-party links

We link to other sites, sources, and retailers throughout our content. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. A link to a third-party site isn’t an endorsement of everything on it, only of the specific thing we’re pointing you to.

User submissions

If you submit a message through our contact form, an email, or (in the future) a comment or review on the site, you’re granting us permission to read, respond to, and, where relevant, use that submission for the purpose it was intended (like featuring a real question in an article, with your identifying details removed unless you say otherwise). Don’t submit anything you don’t have the right to share, or anything abusive, spammy, or unlawful.

No warranties

The site and its content are provided “as is,” without warranties of any kind. We work to keep our information accurate and current, but we can’t guarantee that every product recommendation, price, availability, or piece of advice will remain accurate after publication. Products get discontinued, prices change, and what worked for one home may not work exactly the same way in yours.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, TheDeclutterDesk and its team aren’t liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site, reliance on its content, or any product purchased through a link on it. This includes, but isn’t limited to, damage to property, personal injury, or financial loss connected to a decluttering, organizing, moving, or cleaning decision you made after reading our content.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we’ll update the “last updated” date at the top of this page. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
