By commissioning me, you agree to all following terms.

You agree to the policy of using the commissioned work for personal, non-profit purposes unless otherwise stated.

Violation of these terms will result in termination of contracts without refunds.

None of my artworks, including but not limited to sketches, thumbmails, work in progress shots and finished illustrations, may be used with or processed by AI or LLM models.

NFT usage is strictly forbidden.

For additional questions, please contact me.

By sending the form and then paying for a commission by Chinara (henceforth "the Artist"), you (henceforth "the Commissioner" acknowledge you have read and agreed to these Terms of Service.

A commission contract will commence once an invoice has been issued by the Artist and when the Commissioner has paid the invoice as discussed with the artist.

The Artist will not agree to the use of generative AI or LLM tools in any of part of the artistic process.

The Commissioner will receive a full resolution artwork in either .jpg, .PNG or PDF format, as per their preference, upon completion of the commissioned artwork.

Artworks are only provided in digital format, unless a physical version was specifically discussed with the Artist. Any physical production of the artwork will incur an additional fee.

Copyright as well as commercial use rights remain exclusively with the Artist, unless explicitly discussed and agreed upon.

Unless otherwise explicitly stated, when using a commissioned artwork in a social media or public space, the Artist must be credited by linking to either the website https://www.artofchinara.com or the social media profile of the Artist.

Unless otherwise specified, commissions do not come with a specific deadline attached.

The Artist will accommodate requests for deadlines depending on availability and feasibility. Fixed deadlines may be subject to a rush order fee.

The full amount of the commission payment must have been received by the Artist before the final artwork(s) can be sent to the Commissioner.

Artworks are made available through Dropbox, where the Commissioner can download the artwork within one (1) month of completed work. Should the Commissioner want to receive access to the file after that period elapses, the Artist will retain the file up to 6 months after completing the commission.

The Artist does not carry any responsibility for the loss of artwork files due to technical or hardware failures, such as, but not limited to hard drive failure, computer failure, loss or theft of hard drive.

The Artist reserves the right to refuse a commission request at their discretion.

The Artist reserves the right to implement additional fees, should the scope of the contract exceed the expected workload significantly. This includes, but is not limited to changes to composition, color scheme, or characters that require extensive revisions after the thumbmailing / sketch phase. Said fee is set at 50 EUR per hour.

The artist reserves the right to use any commission work for self-promotional purposes on their social media channels as well as portfolio.

Unless otherwise specified, the Artist retains complete copyright and commercial use rights of all commissions.

In any case of force majeure (i.e. sickness, family emergencies, accidents, loss of equipment) the Artist reserves the right to delay the deadline. Should said delay negatively impact the timeline of the Commissioner, the Artist will discuss appropriate compensation options with the client.

Cancellation (”kill”) fees are due based on the amount of work completed, starting at 50% of the final fee after the Artist accepted the commission and payment has been issued.

After 30 days, 100% will be retained.

Should the Artist be unable to deliver the commissioned artwork within the foreseen deadline, or has to cancel the commission, the Commissioner is entitled to a partial or full refund. This is dependent on the amount of progress of the project at the time of cancellation.

Should the delay be incurred due to force majeure (i.e. sickness, family emergencies, loss of equipment) the Artist will aim to provide an adequate compensatory service once the Artist is able to resume work.

Any other reason for cancellation are subject to aforementioned cancellation fees.
