Terms of Service

 

1. GENERAL TERMS​

​

• I WILL NOT DO ANY TYPE OF NSFW COMMISSION FOR INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 18. I will immediately forfeit your commission if I find out you're a minor or if you lie about your age and give you a refund if applicable.
 

• If your Terms of Use or Terms of Service invalidates any of my rules, do not contact me for a commission.

⚬ That being said, this is a declaration that my terms and conditions overrules any conflicting terms in the commissioners personal Terms of Use regarding my artwork

​

• All drawings may or will include a subtle watermark that you may not remove.

​

• I have the right to reject any order that I do not feel comfortable drawing for any reason.

​

• I do not work for:

⚬ Exposure (Shout-outs, Advertisements, Credit)

⚬ Payment after your project takes off

​

2. PAYMENT

​

• Commissions can be paid either 100% upfront or split 50% as a down payment and 50% after a heavily watermarked proof of the final product has been sent.

​

• Currency accepted is either USD or PHP and can be paid through PayPal or any Philippine payment service such as Gcash or bank transfer.

​

• Do not send me any payment before I have agreed to give you a slot and requested you to send me the payment.

​

3. REFUND / CANCELLATION POLICY

​

• The buyer is not allowed a full refund once I start working on the commission.

 

• If for any reason I am unable to start your commission you will receive a full refund.

 

• If you are getting a refund, do not request a Paypal chargeback. I will transfer the money back to you myself. If you request a Paypal chargeback at any point when you were not allowed to ask for a refund you will lose all beforementioned rights to the commissioned piece and I will have the full right to profit further from it in any way. I will decline the chargeback and supply Paypal with our conversations in which we talk about the commission as evidence that I have completed work for you. Furthermore, you will be blacklisted from commissioning me again.

​

4. PROCESS

​

• I will notify you when I have started on your commission and you, therefore, lose the rights to a refund.

 

• The time it takes to finish your commission varies 1 week - 2 months depending on factors such as health, the complexity of the commissioned piece, other work and your position on my to-do list. YCH commissions take faster to finish but it will still depend based on the factors stated above.

 

• If anything comes up that will slow the progress of the initially estimated delivery time I will let you know asap.

 

• A heavily watermarked proof of the final product will be sent if you choose not to pay upfront, and the remaining 50% is to be sent before the watermarks can be removed.

​

• Once the piece is finished you will receive the full-resolution image. Note that there is no physical product.

​

5. REVISIONS

​

• Work In Progress images will be sent for critique. You get 3 rounds of revisions on the commissioned piece included in the price. A fee will be added if you want more revisions and if you want something changed in the final drawing - unless a misunderstanding from my side has been made. Note that I will not entertain pose changes for YCH commissions unless stated otherwise.

​

• If you wish for me to change something in the drawing you have previously approved, I will charge you a fee to change it. The amount of the extra charge depends on the change you want me to make.

 

• If your reference is unclear to start with, changes will come at an extra charge

​

6. COPYRIGHT / USAGE POLICY

​

• I, Cherubeem (the artist), claim the rights to the produced drawing, not the buyer. Therefore I am allowed to use the copyrighted artwork to:

⚬ Promote myself with it everywhere

⚬ Display it everywhere to my liking (website, social media, etc.)

⚬ Post it wherever I want

​

• The buyer is allowed to:

⚬ Use the commissioned piece for personal use unless agreed otherwise.

⚬ You can upload the piece on all of your social media profiles, forums, etc. as long as you're not monetizing over the art. Attribution/ credit isn't required but greatly appreciated.

⚬ Print the artwork and claim the character(s) as their own, but not the artwork itself.

 

• The following is considered copyright infringement:

⚬ Reproducing/using the copyrighted artwork commercially - means making money off it in any way, unless I give consent and receive royalties of 30% per sale of an item with my work.

⚬ Claiming the artwork as your own

⚬ Using my artwork for NFTs*

​

​

If the buyer breaks any of the points stated above they will lose all the beforementioned rights to the artwork commissioned by me, Cherubeem (the artist), and I will have the right to profit further from the commissioned artwork in any way I see fit. If you have a problem with any of these statements, they may be changed if discussed with me prior to paying your commissioned piece.

* IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING NFTs: My commissioned pieces can't be used for NFTs in any way, shape, or form. Doing so is against my TOS and I will pursue legal action if you attempt to sell my artwork (or any derivative of it) as an NFT.
