Terms & Conditions

Last Updated — August 22, 2025

1) Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Artovio website or marketplace services (“Services”), you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

2) Who We Are

Artovio Inc., an Ontario, Canada company, operates the Services.

3) Eligibility & Accounts

  • You must be legally capable of entering a binding contract in your jurisdiction.
  • You are responsible for your account, credentials, and all activity under it.
  • Provide accurate information and keep it updated.

4) Marketplace Roles & Transactions

Artovio provides a platform where artists (“Sellers”) offer artworks to buyers (“Buyers”). Unless expressly stated otherwise, the sale contract is between the Seller and the Buyer, not Artovio. Sellers are responsible for listings, compliance with law, shipping, and customer obligations owed to Buyers.

5) Payments & Payouts

Payments and payouts are facilitated by a certified third-party payment and identity provider. The provider operates under its own terms and privacy notices. We do not store full card numbers.

6) Listings, Content & IP

  • Sellers must have all rights needed for the content and items they list.
  • You grant Artovio a limited license to host, display, and transmit your content solely to operate and promote the Services.
  • Do not post unlawful, infringing, misleading, or harmful content.

7) Prohibited Uses

Do not misuse the Services (e.g., fraud, infringement, spam, scraping, security abuse, or unlawful acts).

8) Disclaimers (No Warranties)

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” without warranties of any kind (express, implied, or statutory), including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. You use the Services at your own risk.

9) Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Artovio and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and agents are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, or business interruption. Our aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of (a) CAD $100 or (b) the amounts you paid to Artovio (if any) for the Services in the last six (6) months. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; where prohibited, those limits do not apply.

10) Indemnity

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Artovio and its affiliates from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including legal fees) arising from or related to your use of the Services, your content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

11) Governing Law & Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in Toronto, Ontario for all disputes arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms, except where applicable law requires otherwise.

12) Changes to Services & Terms

We may modify or discontinue features at any time. We may update these Terms by posting a revised version with an updated date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

13) Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services at any time for any reason, including if we believe you violated these Terms or applicable law. You may stop using the Services at any time.

14) Severability & Waiver

If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remainder will stay in effect. Failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right.

15) Assignment & Entire Agreement

You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them as permitted by law. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Artovio regarding the Services.
