Sellers: Creation and Implementation of Artfia Campaigns

To the extent any campaign violates these Terms of Service, we may choose to terminate, delay or modify the campaign in our discretion. For additional information about the Artfia Service, please refer to Artfia's Frequently Asked Questions portal.
Your Right to Conduct a Campaign: By creating a campaign through the Artfia Service, you represent and warrant that you own or are the licensee of all trademark rights, copyrights, rights of publicity and other intellectual property or other proprietary rights necessary to create and conduct the campaign (“Campaign Rights”), including any rights relating to the name, description, images, text or URL used for the campaign. You will provide Artfia with evidence of your Campaign Rights upon request.
Artfia does not claim any ownership rights in the content you upload to the Artfia Service. Please be sure you maintain copies of all of your work. Artfia has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any content or information uploaded to the Artfia Service.
Artfia retains all ownership rights in any designs created by Artfia designers and may not be used by you, other than in connection with your campaigns on the Artfia Service, without Artfia's express written consent.
For the purpose of implementing and fulfilling your campaign and for the purpose of advertising the Artfia Service in any medium Artfia chooses, you hereby grant Artfia a nonexclusive, worldwide, fully paid up, transferable, sublicensable license under your Campaign Rights to copy, display, distribute, modify the content you upload to the Artfia Service (including all related images, text, content and information).
Acceptable Use; Indemnity: Your use of the Artfia Service, including the creation and implementation of product campaigns, is subject to these Terms of Service (including our Acceptable Use Policy). To the extent any campaign violates or is alleged to violate our Acceptable Use Policy or any other part of these Terms of Service, in addition to any other remedies, you agree that Artfia has the right to withhold and redirect any funds collected relating to the campaign, which funds will be disbursed based on Artfia's internal policies (for example, Artfia may give the funds to a charity where a campaign falsely states it is raising funds for that charity, or Artfia may apply such funds to any judgment or settlement, and/or the reimbursement of Artfia's expenses, resulting from a third party's claim of infringement) and to control the defense or settlement of any claim or suit resulting from any such violation or alleged violation; and you agree to fully cooperate with Artfia in such activities. Without limiting the foregoing, you also agree to indemnify and hold Artfia harmless from any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses arising out of your violation or any alleged violation of our Acceptable Use Policy or any other part of these Terms of Service.
Quality of Artwork and Promotions: Each campaign must meet reasonable production standards (e.g. a campaign may not include a low quality image that will not print well). All of your advertisements or promotional descriptions, including content that is uploaded to the Artfia Service, must be accurate and correct and must not include any content concerning non-Artfia activities, events, products, services or promotions.
Proceeds from Campaign: If you create a campaign through the Artfia Service, you will be given a “base price” from Artfia for each product. You will also have the opportunity to set the sale price for each product. Once your campaign is launched and products are sold, you will earn the difference between the base price and your sale price, less returns. You may request payout through your dashboard at any time. You are solely and fully responsible for payment of any income taxes applicable to the amounts you earn through the Artfia Service. Prior to receiving your payout, you may be required to provide additional information to Artfia as needed by Artfia to comply with its reporting obligations.
Partnership Disputes: If you work with other people on your campaign, and there is a dispute between you and your partners, even though Artfia receives notice of the dispute, Artfia is entitled to make payouts and otherwise correspond with the original registrant. Alternatively, Artfia may withhold payouts until the dispute is resolved, in Artfia's sole discretion.
Charities/Fundraising: You represent and warrant that any campaign you create that implicitly or explicitly relates to a charity or fundraising effort is authorized by such charity or fundraising effort, and you will ensure that your campaign description clearly and accurately states the percentage of proceeds that will be donated and to whom those proceeds will be donated.
Artfia Right to Lower Sales Goal: You will be able to set the “sales goal” for each campaign. You agree that Artfia may, in its sole discretion, begin to fulfill orders before your sales goal is met.
