ARTLIFTING TERMS OF SERVICE

 

INTRODUCTION


ARTLIFTING ("ARTLIFTING" or "We") empowers the world's artists to earn money from their artwork by making it immediately available for sale as a variety of products - without giving up control of their rights. Artists first, we understand the importance of representing one's work with quality and respect, and we also believe it is essential that all ARTLIFTING users respect the copyright and other intellectual property rights of others. Whether an artist, a customer, or even if you're just browsing, please respect the intellectual property rights of all the works you see or buy on ARTLIFTING. Please be aware that when you post your work to ARTLIFTING, it will be publicly available for the world to view, or buy as a product. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE UPHOLDING YOUR LEGAL RESPONSIBILITIES AND NOT VIOLATING ANYONE’S RIGHTS OR BREAKING ANY LAWS BY PUBLISHING OR OFFERING YOUR WORK FOR SALE THROUGH ARTLIFTING. ARTLIFTING provides a range of services (the "ARTLIFTING Services") which enable you to publish, sell, comment on, promote, and purchase artwork and art-related products (collectively, "Products") through ARTLIFTING.com (the "Site"); interact with other ARTLIFTING users; and receive the benefits of ARTLIFTING's Product production services, including payment processing, transaction handling, product manufacturing, packaging, order fulfillment and customer support.

Please read these terms of service (the "Terms") and ARTLIFTING's Privacy Policy (the "Privacy Policy") carefully. Before you may post content or use or sell Products through the ARTLIFTING Services, you must agree to the Terms and the Privacy Policy. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are a legal agreement between you and ARTLIFTING. CREATING A ARTLIFTING ACCOUNT OR PURCHASING PRODUCTS THROUGH THE ARTLIFTING SERVICES INDICATES THAT YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IN THESE TERMS AND THE PRIVACY POLICY, AND ALL OTHER RULES, POLICIES AND PROCEDURES RELATING TO THE ARTLIFTING SERVICES, INCLUDING THE SITE, THAT ARTLIFTING MAY PUBLISH FROM TIME TO TIME.

"You" means you individually, and if you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, that legal entity. You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and, if you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you have the authority to bind such legal entity. IF YOU DO NOT MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS OR DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OR THE PRIVACY POLICY, YOU MAY NOT CREATE AN ACCOUNT OR USE THE ARTLIFTING SERVICES.

Procedure for Reporting Infringements of Copyright under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. 512 ("DMCA") or Infringements of Other Intellectual Property Rights:


ARTLIFTING has a zero tolerance policy for infringement of copyrights and other intellectual property rights. If you believe in good faith that any Content or Products made available through the ARTLIFTING Services infringes upon your intellectual property rights, you may submit a notice of claimed infringement to us (a "NOCI") by providing the following information in writing to our designated Intellectual Property Rights Agent (listed below) ("Designated Agent"):


  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property right that has been allegedly infringed;

  2. Identification of the works claimed to have been infringed, or if this is a single notification of a copyright infringement claim covering multiple copyrighted works on the Site, as permitted under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. 512 ("DMCA"), a representative list of such works on the Site;

  3. Identification of the Content or Product that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringement activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, including information reasonably sufficient to permit ARTLIFTING to locate the material;

  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, including address, telephone number and e-mail address;

  5. A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that the use of the Content or Product is not authorized by the copyright owner or other intellectual property rights owner, its agent, or the law; and

  6. A statement made under penalty of perjury that the information in the NOCI is accurate and that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.



You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with all of the above notice requirements of this Section, your NOCI may not be valid.

When a complete and proper NOCI is received by the Designated Agent, it is ARTLIFTING's policy to expeditiously investigate the claim and take appropriate action, as determined by us in our sole discretion. Such action may include without limitation: (1) removing or disabling access to the Content, Product or other material identified in the NOCI; (2) notifying the applicable ARTLIFTING user that we have removed or disabled access to such material; (3) cancelling orders for Products that include the Content identified in the NOCI; or (4) terminating such ARTLIFTING user’s account.

Only notices of suspected intellectual property rights infringement should be sent to the Designated Agent. For all other requests for technical support, feedback, comments, and other communications, please contact us.



Procedure to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent:

Procedure to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent:

If you, as the ARTLIFTING user, believe that the Content or Product that was removed or to which access was disabled or for which orders were cancelled is not infringing, or if you believe you have obtained all required rights from their owners, the owners’ agent, or pursuant to the law, you may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent:

1.      your physical or electronic signature;

2.      Identification of the Content or Product that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the Content, Product or other material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;

3.      A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the Content or Product was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the Content or Product to be removed or disabled; and

4.      your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which ARTLIFTING may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the NOCI to ARTLIFTING or such person’s agent.

If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, ARTLIFTING may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing the complaining party that ARTLIFTING may replace the removed Content or Product, cease disabling it and/or reinstate cancelled orders in 10 business days following receipt of the counter-notice unless the complaining party notifies the Designated Agent that it has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the ARTLIFTING user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the Content or Product that was the subject of the NOCI.

RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES

If a dispute arises between you and ARTLIFTING, you and ARTLIFTING agree that the parties will resolve any such claim (a "Claim") in accordance with one of the subsections below or as ARTLIFTING and you otherwise agree in writing. Before resorting to these alternatives, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution. We will consider reasonable requests to resolve the dispute through alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation or arbitration, as alternatives to litigation. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action that you may have arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of the ARTLIFTING Services must be filed within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arose.

Law and Forum for Disputes - These Terms shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware as they apply to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware between Delaware residents, without regard to conflict of law provisions. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against ARTLIFTING must be resolved by a court located in the state of Delaware, except as otherwise agreed by the parties or as described in the Arbitration Option paragraph below. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within the state of Delaware for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes and waive any objection to such jurisdiction, including forum non conveniens.

Arbitration Option - For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. In the event a party elects arbitration, it shall initiate such arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: a) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions (the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration); b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and c) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Improperly Filed Claims - All claims you bring against ARTLIFTING must be resolved in accordance with this Resolution of Disputes Section. All claims filed or brought contrary to the Resolution of Disputes Section shall be considered improperly filed. Should you file a claim contrary to the Resolution of Disputes Section, ARTLIFTING may recover attorneys' fees and costs up to the greater of (i) its actual attorneys' fees and costs; and (ii) $1,000, provided that ARTLIFTING has notified you in writing of the improperly filed claim, and you have failed to promptly withdraw the claim.

GENERAL

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms. Any purported transfer or assignment in violation of the foregoing will be invalid. We may assign these Terms and our rights and obligations under them upon notice to you in accordance with the Notices Section. Headings are for reference purposes only and do not limit the scope or extent of such section. Our failure or delay to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms or any rights under applicable law shall not constitute a waiver of any of those provisions or rights.

These Terms may not be otherwise amended except in a writing signed by you and ARTLIFTING. These Terms, including without limitation, the Privacy Policy which is incorporated herein by reference, set forth the entire understanding and agreement between you and ARTLIFTING with respect to the subject matter hereof.
