Last updated: April 27, 2026
PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE USING ANY PLUMPAW PRODUCT. BY PURCHASING, RECEIVING, OR USING A PLUMPAW PRODUCT, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LEGAL NOTICE.
1. Age Restriction
PlumPaw products are NOT suitable for infants under 12 months of age. Do not place, leave, or use a PlumPaw product in the crib, bassinet, sleep environment, or unsupervised reach of any child under 12 months old.
PlumPaw products contain plush fabric, fillings, electronic and mechanical components, including but not limited to a battery-powered motor, internal moving parts, removable components, and soft materials that may pose serious hazards to infants under 12 months, including but not limited to: suffocation, strangulation, choking, entanglement, and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) risk.
In accordance with safe sleep guidelines published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the Canadian Paediatric Society, and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), no soft objects, plush toys, pillows, blankets, or similar items should be placed in an infant's sleep area during the first 12 months of life.
By purchasing or using a PlumPaw product, you confirm that:
- You are at least 18 years of age, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction.
- You will not place, leave, or use a PlumPaw product in the sleep environment of any child under 12 months of age.
- You will use the product only as a supervised comfort companion for children 12 months and older, with active and continuous adult supervision.
- You assume full responsibility for following all safe sleep guidelines and for the safety of any child in the presence of the product.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS AGE RESTRICTION MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. PLUMPAW ACCEPTS NO LIABILITY FOR USE OF THE PRODUCT WITH INFANTS UNDER 12 MONTHS OF AGE.
2. Not a Medical, Therapeutic, or Safety Device
PlumPaw products are comfort and lifestyle products only. They are:
- NOT a medical device.
- NOT a therapeutic device.
- NOT a sleep safety device.
- NOT a baby monitor or supervision aid.
- NOT intended to diagnose, treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent any medical condition, disease, disorder, or symptom, including but not limited to anxiety, sleep disorders, colic, reflux, autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorders, or any pediatric condition.
- NOT designed to replace medical advice, supervision, monitoring devices, or professional childcare.
- NOT evaluated, certified, approved, endorsed, or regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Health Canada, the European Medicines Agency (EMA), or any other medical regulatory authority.
Any health, wellness, or comfort claims related to PlumPaw products are based on customer feedback and general comfort principles, not clinical studies. Individual results vary.
