Intellectual Property and Copyright

You agree that all materials, products, and services (“materials”) provided on this Site are the property of HAA and its successors in interest (e.g. heirs, assigns, agents, and/or HAA members), including all copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, and other intellectual property, regardless of whether or not such material has been sold or commissioned.  You also agree that HAA has the exclusive rights to manage and license the imagery held by HAA and that, except as stated herein, you will not modify, copy, reproduce, display, transmit, or redistribute HAA’s materials and intellectual property in any way, including but not limited to electronic or digital means, without the prior written permission of HAA.  Modification of the materials or use of the materials for any other purpose is a violation of the artist’s copyright and other proprietary rights.  For purposes of these terms, the use of any such material on any other website or networked computer environment is prohibited.   

 

Submissions

HAA is pleased to hear from customers and welcomes your comments regarding products and services. Unfortunately, however, HAA does not accept or consider creative ideas, suggestions, or materials other than those it has specifically requested.  It is the intent of this policy to avoid the possibility of future misunderstandings when projects developed by HAA might seem to others to be similar to their own creative work.  Accordingly, you agree that you will not send any original creative materials, including but not limited to concept ideas or original artwork.  While HAA values your feedback on services and products, it is important that you be specific in your comments on those services and products, and not submit any creative ideas, suggestions, or materials.  

If, at our request, you send certain Media-specific submission(s) (e.g., artwork, photographs, personal stories, or personal reflections for social sharing purposes), or if, despite our request that you not send us any other creative materials, you do send us photographs, creative suggestions, ideas, notes, drawings, concepts, or other information (collectively, the “Submissions”), you agree that the Submissions shall be deemed, and shall remain, the property of HAA.  None of the Submissions shall be subject to any obligation of confidence on the part of HAA, and HAA shall not be liable for any use or disclosure of any Submission, in whole or in part, whether or not the Submission contains personally identifiable information.  You specifically acknowledge that all the foregoing stipulations with respect to Submissions is inclusive of any submissions made with respect to proposed or agreed upon commissioned paintings as well, whether or not any resultant painting is finally paid for by the commissioner.  (It is here noted that HAA sometimes accepts but never solicits commissioned work.)  As such, commissioned paintings, including images of the same, may be displayed, reproduced, disseminated, modified, re-painted, and/or printed by HAA in any fashion at the sole discretion of HAA.  By extension, you agree that original commissioned paintings, which are not paid for after multiple requests for such via the email address provided by the commissioning party, may be discarded or freely offered for sale by HAA to other buyers, with or without the express consent of the commissioning party, and any and all deposit moneys already paid to HAA by the commissioning party will at that time be forfeited to HAA without compensation of any sort and without any notice beyond being thus stated in these terms. 

You agree that without limitation of the foregoing, HAA shall exclusively own all now known or hereafter existing rights to the Submissions of every kind and nature, in perpetuity, and shall be entitled to unrestricted use of the Submissions for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to the provider of the Submissions nor to any other person claiming rights to the Submissions.  By engaging in the sending of such Submissions, you warrant that you are fully authorized, free, and able to give such consent, that you are not a minor, that you accept full liability for any misrepresentation of this warrant, and that this consent and permission shall be binding upon your heirs, legal representatives, successors, assigns, and any other party who may share claim or ownership of the Submissions.  You further assume responsibility for any and all legal fees incurred in the event that enforcement of this agreement becomes necessary.

 

Purchase of Original Paintings

The purchase of an original painting, by any method or means, including preorders or commissions, also comes with the disclaimer that unforeseen events or accidents may befall an original painting at any point in time between purchase and delivery; thus, because an original painting is quite literally irreplaceable, your purchase of an original painting does not constitute a guarantee that you will receive the painting.  However, in the event of the painting being either demonstrably damaged in transit or becoming undeliverable for any reason, you will receive a full refund.

You agree that HAA is not responsible for the content of sites which may be linked to this Site (“Linked Sites”).  The Linked Sites are for your convenience only, and you access them at your own risk.
