If there is any term that you do not understand or do not wish to agree to, please contact me. Only proceed with this transaction if you wish to be bound by the terms and conditions set out below.
1. PARTIES. This agreement applies between you, the User of this Web Site, and Claudia Dose, the owner(s) of this Web Site and the creator of the paintings. Your agreement to comply with and be bound by these Terms and Conditions is deemed to occur upon your first use of the Web Site. If you do not agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, you should stop using the Web Site immediately.
2. PRICE; PAYMENT. Buyer shall be solely responsible for any state, local, or federal sales, use, VAT, excise, import fees, or other taxes. Such taxes will be added to the final invoice prices in those instances in which Seller is required to collect them from Buyer; provided, however, that if Seller does not collect any such taxes and is later asked by or required to pay such taxes to any taxing authority, Buyer will make such payment to Seller. At Seller’s option, prices may be adjusted to reflect any increase in the costs of Seller resulting from state, federal or local legislation or any change in the rate charge or classification of any carrier. Unless otherwise specified by Seller, all prices are F.O.B. Seller’s shipping point.
The purchase price is due prior to shipment. Invoices unpaid and past due will be subject to a service charge on the unpaid balance at an interest rate equal to the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum allowable interest rate under applicable law and Buyer shall be responsible and liable for all expenses incurred by Seller in collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
3. SHIPMENT; DELIVERY; RISK OF LOSS. Title to and risk of loss of the Products shall pass to Buyer as soon as the Products are delivered by Seller to the carrier. Each shipment date is approximate, and Seller shall not be responsible for any damages of any kind resulting from any delay in shipment or delivery of any Products. Buyer shall be responsible for all shipping, delivering, handling, storage and insurance charges, such charges to be added to the final invoice or reimbursed by Buyer to Seller upon Seller’s payment of such charges. Buyer shall be responsible for any customs fees or any additional delivery charges resulting from customs review.
4. WARRANTY. Seller warrants that the Product is an original work of art of the named artist or a giclee print signed and/or unsigned by the artist and is sold “as is” and in substantial compliance with the quality and condition portrayed on Seller’s website. SELLER MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WHETHER OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE OR OTHERWISE, ON THE PRODUCTS, OR ON ANY PARTS OR LABOR FURNISHED DURING THE SALE, DELIVERY, INSTALLATION, OR SERVICING OF THE PRODUCTS. Identical images published using different media, e.g. an original painting, giclee print (poster), image on a website etc., may have very different parameters, including, but not limited to color, brightness, lightness, hue, and therefore may look very different. This is attributable to the differences between types of media, consequently, the seller is not responsible for any variance in images.
5. CLAIMS; COMMENCEMENT OF ACTIONS. The buyer shall promptly inspect all Products upon delivery to identify any damage resulting from shipment. Buyer agrees that any damages, and resulting claims, arising from shipment shall be satisfied solely through the insurance policy (the “Insurance”) issued by the insurance carrier covering the Product shipment, and Seller shall not be liable for any claims or damages not covered by Insurance. All claims pertaining to damage from shipment must be asserted in writing within ten (10) days after delivery of such Product or such claims are waived in perpetuity. Any lawsuit or other action by Buyer based upon breach of this contract or upon any other claim arising out of this sale must be commenced within thirty (30) days from the tender of delivery by Seller.
6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SELLER BE LIABLE TO THE BUYER FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR AS THE RESULT OF THE SALE, DELIVERY, NON-DELIVERY, INSTALLATION, SERVICING, USE OR LOSS OF USE OF THE PRODUCTS OR ANY PART THEREOF, OR FOR ANY CHARGES OR EXPENSES OF ANY NATURE INCURRED WITHOUT SELLER’S WRITTEN CONSENT, EVEN THOUGH SELLER HAS BEEN NEGLIGENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SELLER’S LIABILITY UNDER ANY CLAIM MADE BY THE BUYER EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCTS IN RESPECT OF WHICH DAMAGES ARE CLAIMED.
7. CREDIT; RIGHTS OF SELLER. If Buyer shall fail to pay any indebtedness to Seller promptly when due or if Buyer’s performance or financial condition shall at any time seem to Seller inadequate to warrant an extension of credit, Seller may, if it so elects, with or without demand for any payment past due and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to it, take some or all of the following actions:
(a) Require cash payment in advance or on delivery.
(b) Cancel any unfilled and unshipped order or portion thereof, by Buyer for Products.
(c) Apply any outstanding credits or loans due to the Buyer against any indebtedness owed by the Buyer to the Seller, whether or not it is due or past due. If Buyer fails in any way to fulfill any of its obligations hereunder, Seller may defer further shipments until such default is corrected or cancel this order and recover damages. Seller shall have a security interest in, and lien upon, any property of Buyer in Seller’s possession as security for the payment of any amounts owing to Seller by Buyer.
8. CANCELLATIONS. After acceptance by Seller, an order shall not be subject to cancellation by Buyer except with Seller’s advance written consent and upon terms that will indemnify Seller against all direct, incidental and consequential loss or damage including, but not limited to, the losses, damages and expenses described in Section 3 above
9. LIMITATION OF ASSIGNMENT. Neither party may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, except that Seller shall have the right to assign them to any company with which it is affiliated or to any corporation into which it shall be merged, with which it shall be consolidated, or by which it, or all or substantially all of its assets, shall be acquired or any other company resulting from a reorganization of Seller or its business segments.
