Effective Date: August 6, 2022

This website is owned and operated by Kathryn Trively (d/b/a Trively Art), LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Trively,” “us,” “we,” and “our”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) contains the terms and conditions that govern your (“you” or “your”) use of our websites, www.trivelyart.com and the products and services offered on the website (the “Website”).

​
THESE TERMS PROVIDE THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND TRIVELY WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. ACCORDINGLY, YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT (INCLUDING IN A CLASS ACTION PROCEEDING) to assert or defend your rights under these Terms (except for matters that may be taken to small claims court). Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury and your claims cannot be brought as a class action. Please review the Section below entitled Dispute Resolution and Arbitration for full details.

Trively provides a number of Internet-based services through the Website (collectively, the “Services”). One such service enables users to purchase products and original pieces of art created by the artist, including without limitation, customized art pieces (collectively, “Products”). Please see the special terms below for custom orders and wholesale orders of the Products. We may offer a number of additional services on the Website, such as galleries, message boards and newsletters, which may change from time to time.

​
Accuracy and Integrity of Information; Products and Cancellations
Although we attempt to ensure the integrity and accurateness of this Website, we make no representations, warranties, or guarantees whatsoever as to the correctness or accuracy of the Website, Services, or Content. It is possible that the Website could include typographical errors, inaccuracies, or other errors, and that unauthorized additions, deletions, and alterations could be made to the Website by third parties. In the event that an inaccuracy arises, please inform us so that it can be corrected. Information contained on the Website may be changed or updated without notice. Additionally, we shall have no responsibility or liability for information or Content posted to the Website from any third party not affiliated with Trively.
We have made significant efforts to accurately display the images of our Products, including the artist’s works, that appear on the Website and the Content. However, as the actual colors you see will depend on your monitor, we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color will be accurate, and the actual colors may differ from the photos on the Website.
All of the Products (i.e., the artist’s work) are original and signed and dated by the artist. Small imperfections add to the uniqueness of the work. However, we will assemble the Products as free from dust and bubbles as is reasonably practicable. It is, however, not possible to eliminate all dust or bubbles due to the use of epoxy resin, and there may be small bubbles or an accumulation of dust on the pieces resulting from the drying process.
CARE: Please avoid direct sunlight on the Products to preserve the integrity and clarity of the resin. Do not use cleaning products on the resin; clean the works with warm water and microfiber cloth. Please do not try to remove the miniature shoes from the resin. We intend that the miniature shoes remain attached to the canvas. They are not to be chewed or consumed orally.
In the event a Product or Service is listed at an incorrect price due to typographical error, we shall have the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for the Product or Service listed at the incorrect price. We shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit or debit card charged. If your credit or debit card has already been charged for the purchase and your order is canceled, we shall issue a credit to your credit or debit card account for the amount of the canceled order.
We reserve the right to modify the organization, structure, or “look and feel” of the Website or Services, and may change, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Website or Services at any time without any liability to you or any third party. We shall have complete and exclusive discretion over the features, functions, prices, and other terms and conditions on which the Website and Services are offered to you.
​
Modifications and Severability
We may make changes to these Terms from time to time without prior notice. We will notify you of any material changes by sending you an email or posting a notice on the home page of the Website. If we make any changes to the Terms, you must review the new Terms carefully to make sure you understand our practices and procedures. Your continued use of the Website following posting of a change notice or new Terms on the Website will constitute binding acceptance of the changes. If any of these Terms shall be deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then any such offending term or condition shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any of the remaining Terms.
Feedback and Other Submissions
When you submit questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, message board postings, material submitted via web forms, contest entries, communications, or any other information (“Submissions”), you grant us permission to use such Submissions for marketing and other promotional purposes, including the right to sublicense. You agree that we will have no obligation to keep any Submissions confidential. You will not bring a claim against us based on “moral rights” or the like arising from our use of a Submission.
​
Custom Orders; Wholesale Orders
Custom Orders
With respect to custom orders, we will send you a proof of the Product, and you will need to approve the proof of the custom Product prior to the artist commencing any work on the custom order. Once the custom piece is completed and shipped to you, the custom work cannot be returned to us and is deemed final. For custom orders over $600.00, you are required to pay a 50% deposit prior to the commencement of work on the customized Product, and once the customized Product is completed, you will be required to pay the remaining 50% of the purchase price before shipment to you. We will ship the customized Product to you once the piece has been paid for in full. If we do not hear from you about payment and delivery of the customized Product for thirty (30) days after we notify you of completion, we will put the customized Product on our Website and make it available to the general public. All custom orders are deemed final.
​
Wholesale Orders
If you are making wholesale purchases of our Products, you will be required to pay for all shipping costs. We do not buy back any unused inventory. If any of the art pieces are damaged during shipment, we will replace them free of charge, but only if you notify us within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the damaged piece. Please note that all wholesale orders are priced based on the estimated size and number of rows for the piece, and the final Product may vary from the initial estimate; as such, the final price for the order is subject to change based on the final configuration of the Product.
​

Any and all Products available for purchase or license on the Website are subject to the export control laws and regulations of the United States and any other countries, as applicable. In purchasing any of the Products, you agree not to dispose through export, re-export, trans-shipment, or otherwise, of any Product purchased or licensed from or through Trively, except in accordance with all applicable export control laws and regulations

​
Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. If you have a concern about your purchase or any other issue, please contact us. We have found that this is the most effective way to resolve any potential disputes or disagreements and strongly encourage you to contact us as soon as possible. In the unlikely event that Trively is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction, then you and Trively each agree to be bound by these dispute resolution procedures.
You and Trively each agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to your use of the Website, your ordering of Products or Services from Trively through the Website, by phone, or through third-party websites offering Trively Products or Services shall be determined by binding arbitration.
BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO BRING AN ACTION IN COURT OR BEFORE AN ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCY. ARBITRATION IS MORE INFORMAL THAN COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS. ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR TO DECIDE A DISPUTE INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY. AN ARBITRATOR’S AWARD IS SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS. HOWEVER, AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF AS A COURT (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE AND DECLARATORY RELIEF OR STATUTORY DAMAGES). AN ARBITRATOR IS ALSO BOUND BY THESE TERMS TO THE SAME EXTENT AS A COURT.
WE EACH ALSO AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS OF ANY NATURE OR IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. THIS MEANS THAT YOU MAY NOT BRING A CLAIM ON BEHALF OF A CLASS OR ANY PERSON OTHER THAN YOURSELF. UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED IN WRITING BY BOTH YOU AND TRIVELY, AN ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT CONDUCT ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF OTHER THAN ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a demand to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) describing your claim and serve a copy of the demand on our registered agent. The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures in Austin, Texas, and for disputes arising from or related to the purchase of products or services for personal or household use the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules will apply. AAA and the arbitrator will determine the appropriate rules that may apply as from time to time amended. The AAA’s rules and the form for filing an arbitration claim are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. Trively will reimburse those fees (but not any attorney’s fees) for arbitration claims seeking less than $10,000, unless the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous. Additionally, Trively will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed upon location. The arbitrator shall be bound by these Terms.
As an alternative to arbitration, you may elect to submit a claim to a small claims court if the claim qualifies, but any filing or other fees will be your responsibility.
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial, unless such waiver is unenforceable. This means that any claim in court would be decided by a judge, not a jury.
We also each agree that you or Trively may bring suit in court to seek temporary provisional relief such as to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
​
Governing Law
THIS AGREEMENT EVIDENCES A TRANSACTION IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE, AND THUS THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT AND APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW GOVERNS THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THESE TERMS AND ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE AND SERVICES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PRODUCTS AND SERVICES ORDERED OR PURCHASED THROUGH THE WEBSITE. IN THE ABSENCE OF APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW, THEN THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES) WILL GOVERN.
Other Terms
No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is established as a result of these Terms. These Terms, in addition to other written agreements you may enter into with Trively, are the entire agreement and understanding between you and us regarding the purchase of any Product and supersedes all prior or contemporary communications whether digital, oral or written. If any term or condition of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that term or condition will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms will otherwise remain fully valid and enforceable. Our failure to enforce or exercise any rights established by these Terms will not constitute a waiver of any such rights or any other rights under this Agreement.
