Terms of service
Last updated: July 2026
By using First Light at firstlightskies.com, you agree to these terms. They're short on purpose.
Content & advice
Our guides are educational content based on hands-on observing and community consensus — they are not professional or safety advice. Always follow proper precautions for solar observing and eclipse viewing. We work hard to keep content accurate and update it when we learn better, but we can't guarantee it fits every setup or situation.
Affiliate disclosure
As an Amazon Associate we may earn a commission from qualifying purchases made through links on this site, at no additional cost to you. Prices shown are our last observed prices and may differ from the retailer's current price — the retailer's price at checkout always governs.
Catalog purchases
Merchandise is made to order. Payment is processed by Stripe under their terms. Production typically takes 2–5 business days before shipping. Misprinted, damaged, or defective items are replaced free of charge — contact us within 30 days of delivery. Because items are made to order, we can't accept buyer's-remorse returns; check size charts before ordering.
Intellectual property
All artwork, chart designs, and written content are original works owned by First Light, rendered from public-domain catalog data but not copied from any commercial atlas plate. Personal sharing with attribution is welcome; commercial reuse requires written permission.
Liability
The site is provided "as is". To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from use of the site or products purchased through it.
