Terms and Condition

General Information

This agreement governs your use of LCM VIA's site and service, including all orders made or processed for products or services in connection with the site and service, and the user Forums which LCM VIA makes available. You and LCM VIA Inc., a Delaware corporation providing custom, on-demand merchandise printing, sales, and other related services ("LCM VIA"), are the parties to this agreement. If you choose to use other features of the site and service, like opening a shop to sell custom, print-on-demand products, other terms may apply in addition to these. No exceptions to these terms are effective unless LCM VIA has agreed to them in writing.

LCM VIA may change these terms from time to time. If LCM VIA makes changes to these terms, you will be notified and asked to accept the new terms as a condition of continuing to use LCM VIA's site and service. If you disagree with any amendments, you must stop using LCM VIA's site and service.

Use of the Site and Service Generally

(a) LCM VIA owns all intellectual property and other rights, title and interest in and to its site and service (except for user-provided content). Your use of the site and service does not grant you any right, title or interest to these properties, except as follows. LCM VIA grants you a limited, revocable license to access and use the site and service for its intended purpose: the provision of an online, on-demand, customizable merchandising solution. You may only use the site and service according to LCM VIA's terms, rules, and guidelines found on its site, and LCM VIA may revoke this license and limit your access to the site and service according to Section 15 (Termination of Access).

(b) You may not

  • interfere with the site and service by using viruses or any other programs or technology designed to disrupt or damage any software or hardware;
  • modify, copy, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any technology used to provide the site and service;
  • use a robot or other automated means to monitor the activity on or copy information or pages from the site and service, except search engines, traffic counters, or similar basic performance monitoring technology;
  • impersonate another person or entity;
  • use any meta tags, search terms, keywords, or similar tags that contain LCM VIA's name or trademarks;
  • engage in any activity that interferes with another user's ability to use or enjoy the site and service, including activity that places a disproportionate burden on the site and service compared to ordinary use from a single, ordinary user;

Shops

  • Two shop types are available on LCM VIA's site. First, there are shops designed and operated by LCM VIA itself ("LCM VIA Shop(s)") and shops designed and operated by independent shop owners ("Partner Shop(s)"). Information about the owner of any shop is available as a linked page in each shop.
  • Independent shop owners of Partner Shops are solely responsible for the products and designs offered in those shops, the design of those shops, and the advertising of the articles offered. LCM VIA does not use designs or products of shop owners until a customer places an order that includes one of those designs or products.

Product Sales

  • By placing an order using LCM VIA's site and service, a customer makes a binding offer for a contract of sale or, as the case may be, a contract for work and materials with LCM VIA only (no contract exists between the customer and any applicable shop owner). LCM VIA sends an order confirmation via e-mail to the customer. The order confirmation is not an acceptance of the offer, but only acknowledges that the order was received. The offer is only accepted when LCM VIA confirms that production has completed in a second e-mail. LCM VIA cannot guarantee the continued availability of any products or designs found on its site.
  • Information, drawings, figures, technical data, specifications of weight, measurements and services contained in brochures, catalogues, newsletters, ads, or price lists are purely informational. LCM VIA cannot guarantee the correctness of this information, and if there is any inconsistency between the information described above and the information in an order confirmation email, the order confirmation email controls.
  • LCM VIA reserves the right to reject orders for any reason or no reason. If LCM VIA rejects an order, it will notify the customer.
  • LCM VIA's performance of an order is completed when the shipment provider completes delivery to the customer's address, according to the records of the shipment provider. If there is an interruption of delivery, and LCM VIA cannot replace the order in a reasonable amount of time, LCM VIA will notify the customer immediately.
  • If there is a product defect or if you are dissatisfied with your order for any reason, 'LCM VIA's return policy will apply, which LCM VIA may change at any time in its sole discretion.

Delivery & Shipment

  • LCM VIA warrants that it will ship orders within three weeks after orders are placed. Normally, goods are shipped within a few days and typical delivery times are 2-4 days, but in certain circumstances shipment and delivery can take up to three weeks. Customers and LCM VIA may separately agree to more specific delivery times and terms in a separate writing or agreement (such as a request for express shipping).
  • LCM VIA will make delivery using a shipment service provider of its choosing. The customer must pay standard shipping costs which may depend on order value and shipping destinations. Shipping costs are displayed at checkout.

Prices

  • All prices found on LCM VIA's site are final, and may change from time to time. Shipping and handling are billed and shown separately at checkout (or on invoices, if applicable). The shipping address and order amount may affect certain costs, and sales taxes may apply to some orders.
  • For customers ordering from outside the United States, all product prices are net of local taxes and fees unless otherwise indicated. If, according to applicable law, the goods are subject to sales taxes, import duties, import brokerage fees, or other taxes or fees in the recipient's country, and if these are not already collected at checkout, then the customer has the sole responsibility to pay these taxes and fees.
  • Customers must pay the purchase price, applicable sales taxes, and shipping and handling charges immediately upon placing an order, without deduction.

Payment

  • Customers may choose to pay by direct debit, credit card, advance payment, or other payment methods. LCM VIA reserves the right to limit the method of payment chosen by the customer depending on order value, shipment destination, or other objective criteria.
  • If the customer selects a payment method or provides payment information that makes it impossible or impractical for LCM VIA to receive payment (for example, the customer's account lacks sufficient funds, or the customer provided incorrect payment information) through no fault of LCM VIA's own, the customer agrees that LCM VIA may add an additional charge to the order to recoup costs associated with processing or attempting to process the impossible or impractical transaction.
  • LCM VIA may sub-contract third parties to process payment.
  • If the customer fails to pay, LCM VIA may assign its claims to a debt collection agency and transfer the personal data required for collecting payment to these third parties.

Title to Products

Until LCM VIA receives full payment for an order and the order is shipped, title to the goods remains with LCM VIA. Upon transfer of the goods to the carrier, title and risk of loss passes to the customer. The customer should handle products with care until the transfer of ownership is complete (for example, in case of a product return).
