TERMS OF SERVICE We respect you, please respect us in return.
WE ONLY WANT TO WORK AND PLAY WITH THE REAL “YOU”. In other words, don’t impersonate someone else. Be yourself. And be nice. The information you provide us must be accurate and up to date. If we discover that you are presenting inaccurate or unlawful information, you are banned from using our site, our services, and/or purchasing our products.
COMMERCE By using our site, including our third-party partner’s sites, you agree to be financially responsible for all purchases made by you, or someone acting on your behalf. We offer products/services for sale on this site using a secure third-party shopping cart. To avoid learning your credit card information, we’ve partnered with Stripe, Square, and PayPal, to securely process payment. As such, we never learn or store your credit card information. These providers share your name, address, and email with us so that your order can be processed. If you purchase directly from our White Feather Black Daisy studio or through our website http//:www.WFBDstudio.com, we will email you to confirm your order and with essential details concerning the delivery of our products and/or services.
IN PERSON AND PHONE ORDER SALES Square or PayPal is used for in person and phone order sales depending on both the customer’s preference and seller’s convenience.
E-COMMERCE SALES When purchasing directly from www.WFBDstudio.com payments are processed only through Woocommerce. If you order one of our products through a third-party partner, like Finerworks, Society 6 or FineArtAmerica, they take care of your order from start to finish including confirmation, shipping, and returns.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS We do our best to display our services and products as clearly and accurately as possible, but despite our best efforts errors can occur. We will correct them as soon as we see them. Please take into consideration that the site may not be entirely accurate, current or error free. We reserve the right to correct our errors in pricing, description, or anything else, on our site and social media channels. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order with an incorrect price or shipping listing. We reserve the right to modify, change or discontinue our products and services, and associated prices, without notice at any time.
COLOR We strive to represent all our products accurately, however, all digital screens including computers, tablets, and cell phones, can each show color very differently. We highly recommend not matching color to what you see on your screen.
ORDER FULFILLMENT We want nothing but the best for you, but that can take some time. We don’t settle for dreary work, and insist on making beautiful goods, excellently crafted with quality materials, because we think you are worth the time and effort. It can take between three and four days before our products are ready to ship. Please plan accordingly.
SUBSTITUTIONS Occasionally our suppliers of framing materials, fine art printing papers, ink suppliers, and art suppliers change what materials they have available. Because we cannot control those variables, we may need to make substitutions on your order. In order to maintain a high level of quality and craftsmanship, we reserve the right to change framing materials, fine art printing paper, ink, or any other material that may be used in the production, shipping and/or creation of any of our products or services, at any time. Whenever possible substituted materials will be of equal or greater quality. All substituted materials will be chosen and approved by the artist. Our main concern is that the end product arrives on your doorstep ready for your enjoyment for years to come. By purchasing our products and/or services you agree to abide by any substitutions of equal or greater value we deem appropriate in order to fulfill your order in accordance with our high standards of craftsmanship and quality.
SHIPPING We do everything we can to make sure your items arrive in stunning condition and ready to “enjoy”. You will be emailed a tracking number and shipping confirmation notice so that you know your goods are headed your way and can keep track of their progress. Because we are shipping quality artwork, you will want to make sure that someone is available to receive the package and have someone looking out for your package to bring it inside in case of inclement weather. Our packaging is very sturdy, but a downpour can be trying for even the toughest packaging.
IF ARTWORK IS DAMAGED DURING SHIPPING Despite the strongest of precautions, occasionally an artwork may be damaged in shipping. Here’s what to do:
• Don’t open any visibly damaged packaging, or any package that is clanking/ clinking/ or making other weird sounds that it shouldn’t be making, until we have had a chance to talk.
o Dirt and smudge marks happen and don’t necessarily indicate damage.
o If you see damage such as punctures or large gashes, do not open the box until you hear from us.
• If damage during shipment happens please email us right away at angela@WFBDstudio.com or use our online contact form.
• We will get back to you with 1-2 business days to bring the delight back.
o If we happen to be away on an art empowerment adventure, it may take a little longer for us to get back to you, but we do absolutely value you – and we will get in touch with you as soon as our feet step into the studio!
• Take a picture (lots of pictures is even better!) of the condition the package arrived in, and from as many angles as possible.
• If everything had looked okay, and then you realized there was damage as you opened the box, take pictures and save all the packaging, please. We take great pride in our artwork packaging, and if something went wrong, we want to make sure it will never happen again.
• A return slip and instructions are included with all our original art and limited-edition products, but if there is marked visible damage on the package, or you can hear rattling, do not open the package. We will email you a return slip and further instructions so you can ship the package right back to us, without having to open it.
• In some cases, particularly for cases of damage to original artwork, a representative from the shipping company we use may need to inspect the shipping box, packaging, and contents. If this needs to happen, we will be in contact with you.
REFUNDS, RETURNS, CANCELLATIONS & EXCHANGES
Clothing We love printing our artwork on quality clothing made in the USA whenever possible. However, each garment is printed for you on demand. This means that each garment is more than a little bit special because it would not exist without you! It also means that at this time we cannot do any refunds, returns, or exchanges for clothing purchases. 🙁 Please check the sizing charts we include on each clothing product’s page to be sure that it is the perfect size for you (or the very blessed person you are gifting it to)! At this time, we, unfortunately, cannot do refunds, returns, or exchanges for clothing purchases that are not the correct size. That said, if there is a defect, or your clothing was damaged during shipping, we certainly want to know so that a brand new, beautiful, and absolutely perfect version can be sent your way! In the unlikely case of defect or damage that sneaked past our quality control, please contact us by emailing us directly at angela@WFBDstudio.com or better yet, simply use our contact form to let us know what happened so we can make it right.
COMMISSIONED ARTWORK Commissioned artwork sales are final and subject to the individual contracts they were commissioned under.
CONSULTS, SPEAKING EVENTS and/or WORKSHOPS (Experiences) Any consulting fees or workshop(experience) charges are non-refundable within five business days prior to the event or meeting. Within five business days of the event or meeting, sales are considered final. Travel and accommodation expenses are considered final and are non-refundable once the travel has been scheduled.
DIGITAL PRODUCTS All sales of digital products are final.
ORIGINAL ARTWORK, LIMITED EDITION PRINTS and/or OPEN EDITION PRINTS At WFBD studio we only want our artwork to live at happy homes, if for any reason, you are dissatisfied with your purchase of original artwork, limited edition prints, or open edition prints, please email Angela@WFBDstudio.com to request a refund and arrange for return of goods. Refunds and exchanges are only good for 30 days upon the artwork’s arrival at the address you specified for shipping. After 30 days, all sales are considered final. Artwork must be shipped back to WFBD studio in the packaging it arrived in, using the return label provided, and in accordance with the return directions. Refunds will not be issued until goods have been returned. In order to be eligible for a refund, the undamaged goods must be returned to WFBD studio and arrive in “like new” condition to WFBD studio. An original receipt with the purchase price of the artwork must be provided by the customer in order to be eligible for a refund. If no original receipt for the artwork can be provided, a refund cannot be issued. In that event, an exchange for an item of the same size and value may be made as long as the returned item is undamaged and in “like new” condition. Damaged goods cannot be refunded or exchanged. (Please see above for what we do if artwork is damaged during shipping.)
SHIPPING CHARGES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
If your refund is approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will be applied to your credit card or other original method of payment. We may need to contact you to make this happen because we do not store your financial information. Please allow ten to fifteen business days for a refund to finish processing and appear in the appropriate accounts.
