Terms of Use

1. About the site

soramikami.com showcases The Kintsugi Mind, a collection of 13 Japanese philosophy coloring books for adults — featuring 520 original illustrations exploring concepts including kintsugi, wabi-sabi, ikigai, shinrin-yoku, komorebi, ma, kaizen, mono no aware, oubaitori, and the four seasons (haru, natsu, aki, fuyu).

The site does not directly sell physical or digital products. Books are sold through third-party retailers, primarily Amazon.

2. Intellectual property

All content on this site — including book covers, illustrations, written descriptions, the “The Kintsugi Mind” series name, and the overall design of the site — is owned by Sora Mikami or licensed to her, and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, publicly display, or create derivative works from any of the content without prior written permission. You may, of course, view and share links to public pages of the site for personal, non-commercial purposes.

The Japanese philosophical concepts referenced throughout the site are part of broader cultural heritage and are not claimed as proprietary. Sora’s original illustrations and book interpretations of those concepts are her own creative work.

3. Third-party links and Amazon

The site contains links to third-party websites, primarily Amazon storefronts where the books are sold. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content, products, pricing, fulfillment, or policies. Once you click a third-party link, that site’s terms and privacy policy apply.

The site may participate in the Amazon Associates affiliate program. If so, the operator may earn a small commission on qualifying purchases made through links from this site — at no additional cost to you.

4. Accuracy of information

We try to keep book descriptions, prices, formats, and availability accurate, but the information on this site is provided “as is”. Amazon listings are the source of truth for current price and availability. Books listed as “coming soon” may change in scope, release date, or final title.

5. Reviews and quoted content

Reviews displayed on the site come from publicly available sources, including Amazon customer reviews. Reviewer names appear as they were published on those platforms. If you are a reviewer and would like a quote removed, please reach out through Sora’s Amazon author page.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the site in a way that violates any law or regulation
• Attempt to interfere with the site’s operation or security
• Scrape or harvest content for commercial use without permission
• Misrepresent your affiliation with Sora Mikami or the Kintsugi Mind series

7. No warranties

The site is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Sora Mikami and the site operator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of the site or any third-party site linked from it.

9. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. Material changes are reflected by the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

10. Contact

We’re authors, and we currently publish and sell our books exclusively through Amazon. For anything related to a purchase — orders, shipping, returns — please contact Amazon customer service through your order. For questions about the books themselves, content licensing, or these terms, you can reach Sora through her Amazon author page.
