Problems or disagreements

If your problem or disagreement is with or because of Patreon, please visit their Terms.

By law, you have the right to a certain quality of service, and ways to fix problems if things go wrong. These terms don’t limit nor take away any of those rights. For example, if you’re a consumer, then you continue to enjoy all legal rights granted to consumers under applicable law.

Warranty

We provide our services using reasonable skill and care. If we don’t meet the quality level described in this warranty, you agree to tell us and we’ll work with you to try to resolve the issue.

Disclaimers

The only commitments we make about our services (including the content in the services, the specific functions of our services, or their reliability, availability, or ability to meet your needs) are described in the Warranty section, stated in the specific-service additional terms, or provided under applicable laws. We don’t make any other commitments about our services.

And unless required by law, we don’t provide implied warranties, such as the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Liabilities

FOR ALL USERS:

These terms only limit our responsibilities as allowed by applicable law. Specifically, these terms don’t limit Pickyman Studios liability for death or personal injury, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence, or willful misconduct.

Other than the rights and responsibilities described in this section (Problems or disagreements), Pickyman Studios won’t be responsible for any other losses, unless they’re caused by our breach of these terms or specific-service additional terms.

FOR ORGANIZATION USERS ONLY:

If you’re an organization, then to the extent allowed by applicable law:

• You’ll indemnify Pickyman Studios and its directors, employees, and contractors for any third-party legal proceedings (including actions by government authorities) arising out of or relating to your unlawful use of the services or violation of these terms or specific-service additional terms. This indemnity covers any liability or expense arising from claims, losses, damages, judgments, fines, litigation costs, and legal fees.

• Pickyman Studios won’t be responsible for the following liabilities:

  • loss of profits, revenues, business opportunities, goodwill, or anticipated savings.

  • indirect or consequential loss.

  • punitive damages.

If you’re legally exempt from certain responsibilities, including indemnification, then those responsibilities don’t apply to you under these terms.

Taking action in case of problems

Before we take action as described below, we will inform you with reasonable advance notice, the reason for our action, and give you an opportunity to fix the problem, unless we reasonably believe that doing so would:

• cause harm or liability to a user, third party, or Pickyman Studios.

• violate the law or a legal enforcement authority's order.

• compromise an investigation.

• compromise the operation, integrity, or security of our services.

Removing your content by Pickyman Studios (Picky+)

If we reasonably believe that any of your content breaches these terms, specific-service additional terms, guidelines, or policies, violate applicable law, or could harm our users, third parties, or Pickyman Studios (Picky+), then we reserve the right to terminate some or all of that content in accordance with applicable law. Examples include content that facilitates harassment and content that infringes someone else’s intellectual property rights.

If already approved partner content on Picky+ violates these terms or Picky+'s specific-service additional terms (Partner Content Guidelines) after they were updated, we will inform you with reasonable advance notice about what our action will be and what you can do to readjust your content so it abides by the newly updated terms or Picky+'s specific-service additional terms (Partner Content Guidelines).

We also reserve the right to remove content at our discretion.

Suspending or terminating your access to Pickyman Studios services

Pickyman Studios reserves the right to suspend or terminate your access to the services or to cancel your Picky+ Patreon membership if any of these things happen:

• you materially or repeatedly breach these terms, specific-service additional terms, guidelines, or policies.

• we are required to do so to comply with a legal requirement or a court order.

• we reasonably believe that your conduct causes harm or liability to a user, third party, or Pickyman Studios — for example, by hacking, phishing, harassing, spamming, misleading others, or scraping content that doesn’t belong to you.

If you believe your Picky+ Patreon membership cancellation was an error, you can appeal.

You’re always free to stop using our services at any time.

Resolving disputes, governing law, and courts

Minnesota law will govern all disputes arising out of or relating to these terms, specific-service additional terms, or any related services, regardless of conflict of laws rules.

About these terms

By law, you have certain rights that can’t be limited by a contract like these terms of service. These terms are in no way intended to restrict those rights.

These terms describe the relationship between you and Pickyman Studios and its content, services, and products. They don’t create any legal rights for other people or organizations, even if others benefit from that relationship under these terms.

By using the Picky+ Patreon Membership and its benefits, you not only agree to Patreon's Terms of Service, but must also agree to and abide by, Patreon's Community Guidelines, Patreon's Privacy Policy, Patreon's Copyright & Trademark policies, Patreon's Cookie policy, Patreon's Security policy, this terms of service, Picky+ Patreon Member Agreement, Pickyman Studios Privacy Policy, and possibly specific-service additional policies.

We want to make these terms easy to understand.

If these terms conflict with the specific service additional terms, the additional terms will govern for that service.

If it turns out that a particular term is not valid or enforceable, this will not affect any other terms.

If you don’t follow these terms or the specific-service additional terms, and we don’t take action right away, that doesn’t mean we’re giving up any rights that we may have, such as taking action in the future.

We may update these terms and specific service additional terms to reflect changes in our services or how we do business.

If we materially change these terms or specific service additional terms, we’ll provide you with reasonable advance notice. If you don’t agree to the new terms, you should request to remove your partner content from Picky+ and stop using the services.
