I. Making an Order

To place an Order you will need to follow the Order procedure set out on the Site.

All Orders are subject to acceptance, by means of an Order Confirmation, by us and we are entitled to refuse any Order placed by you. The Order Confirmation will contain details of your Order, the Price and may contain an estimate of the delivery time for the Order. As long as we receive full payment, once we have sent your Order Confirmation we will start to process your Order and create your personalized Reproduction. You cannot cancel an order. If we are unable to fulfill an Order after accepting payment we may refund your money and cancel the contract which relates to the Reproduction in question.

Any times or dates stated for delivery are estimates only. We will make reasonable efforts to deliver Products within the time specified, but we do not accept liability for any failure to deliver within that time. You undertake that all details you provide to us for the purpose of purchasing Products via the Site will be correct. Our pricing is in part based on the number of subjects depicted in User Images and Reproductions of those User Images. Pricing may change if you inaccurately identify the number of subjects in a User Image during the ordering process. In the event of such an inaccuracy, Depicteur will contact you to discuss adjustments to pricing prior to completing your Order and creating your Reproduction. Any timelines for completion of your order will be suspended until contact is made and any inaccuracies are corrected.

II. Payment Terms

Terms of payment are within Depicteur's sole discretion, and unless otherwise agreed by Depicteur, payment must be received by Depicteur immediately.

Payment for Orders will be accepted only from sources approved by Depicteur from time to time.. Your order is subject to cancellation by Depicteur at any time, at Depicteur's sole discretion. All amounts due are payable in U.S. dollars. Any amount not paid when due may be subject to a finance charge of up to one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) per month, or the maximum amount allowed by law if lower, on the unpaid balance due. You shall also be responsible for any expenses and/or fees (including but not limited to attorneys' fees), incurred by Depicteur in collecting past due amounts from you.

III. Delivery

The place for the delivery of your Reproduction will be as shown on your Order and the normal method of delivery shall be regular postage.

We will attempt to process your Order and manufacture your Reproduction within the time period stated for each item. However manufacturing times may vary and any times quoted for the delivery of goods are indicative only. Time for delivery shall not be of the essence of these Terms of Service and we will not be liable for any loss or expenses which you may sustain as a result of any delay in the delivery of your Order.

A signature (or similar) for a delivery will constitute conclusive evidence that you have received your Order. If you can see any sign of damage to the exterior of the envelope or parcel containing a Product, please include a reference to the damage when signing for the delivery.

If you wrongfully fail to take delivery of the Order then we shall be under no obligation to refund the price. If delivery is refused or returned due to a defective address, you will be charged a re-delivery fee.

Complaints or claims must be notified to us within 60 days of receipt of Reproductions, or in the case of non-delivery, in a reasonable time after the Reproduction was expected to arrive.

IV. Risk and Property

Risk of damage or loss to a Reproduction and the related Order will pass to you upon delivery to the address you specified in your Order. Notwithstanding delivery and passing of the risk in the Order, property in the Order will not pass from us to you until we have received full payment of the Price and all other sums which are due, owing or payable by you to us in respect of the Order or any other Order between you and us.

Returns, refunds and rights of cancellation

You shall have the right to cancel an Order only in the following circumstances:

(a) If we have failed to deliver the Order within the time frame communicated to you during the Ordering process; or

(b) In the case of a defective Product at the earliest opportunity after you have discovered that the fault or defect (provided that you shall be deemed to have inspected the Product as soon as reasonably practicable after delivery and in no case longer than 14 days after receipt). No Reproduction/Order will be deemed “defective” based on the quality, color, technique, or other subjective or aesthetic measure. Whether a product is defective is dependent on actual damage or failure to meet objective characteristics detailed during the Order process such as size.

If an Order is cancelled under the conditions in (a) or (b) above, we shall be responsible for all sums paid (including initial and re-delivery charges (if any)) in respect of the Order in question.
