Terms of Service

Last Updated: August 11 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of OliROArts’ products and services, including the Card Forge application (the “App”), digital downloads (maps, assets, and other digital products), physical goods (printed cards and related merchandise), and freelance/commission services (collectively, the “Services”), owned and operated by Olivier Royer / OliROArts (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using any of the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not use the Services.

1. Use of the Services

1.1 The Services are provided for personal and/or commercial use in accordance with these Terms and any additional terms specific to a given product or service (for example, a digital product’s license terms, or a commission agreement).

1.2 You agree to use the Services only for lawful purposes and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

1.3 You are solely responsible for ensuring you have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions for any content, images, text, or other media you upload, create, or use within the App.

2. Intellectual Property

2.1 All source code, design, features, functionality, and content of the App and website are and shall remain our exclusive property, protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws, except where explicitly licensed to you (see Section 5, Digital Products).

2.2 You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to use the App for its intended purpose. This license does not grant you ownership of any part of the App.

2.3 You may not:

• Copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the App’s source code or compiled code.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the App’s source code except where expressly permitted by law.

3. User Content (Card Forge App)

3.1 “User Content” means any images, text, designs, or other materials you upload to or create within the App.

3.2 You retain all rights to your User Content. We do not claim ownership over it.

3.3 By using the App, you represent and warrant that:

• You own or have the legal right to use all User Content you submit.
• Your User Content does not infringe any copyright, trademark, or other third-party rights.
• You are fully responsible for the legality and appropriateness of your User Content.

4. Disclaimer of Liability for User Content

4.1 We do not monitor, review, or vet User Content for intellectual property compliance.

4.2 We are not responsible or liable for any claims, damages, or disputes arising from your use of third-party or unlicensed content in the App.

4.3 You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, or legal actions arising from your User Content or your use of the Services.

5. Digital Products

5.1 “Digital Products” means downloadable maps, assets, and other digital files purchased or obtained through our store.

5.2 Unless otherwise stated on the specific product listing, purchasing a Digital Product grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use it for personal and/or commercial creative projects (such as tabletop game sessions, published adventures, or streamed content). This license does not permit you to resell, redistribute, sublicense, or repackage the Digital Product itself, in whole or in part, as your own product.

5.3 Because Digital Products are delivered electronically and cannot be “returned,” all sales of Digital Products are final once the download has been made available to you, except where required otherwise by law.

5.4 If a Digital Product is defective (for example, a corrupted file), contact us and we will provide a replacement or refund at our discretion.

6. Physical Goods

6.1 “Physical Goods” means printed cards and any other tangible merchandise sold through our store.

6.2 All Physical Goods are made to order in small batches. Product photos and descriptions are representative; minor variations in color, finish, or cut are normal for small-batch printing and are not considered defects.

6.3 Estimated production and shipping times are provided at checkout or on the product listing and are estimates, not guarantees. We are not responsible for delays caused by shipping carriers or customs.

6.4 Risk of loss and title for Physical Goods pass to you upon delivery to the shipping carrier.

6.5 If your order arrives damaged or defective, contact us within 7 days of delivery with photos of the issue, and we will offer a replacement, repair, or refund at our discretion.

6.6 Because Physical Goods are produced to order, we do not accept returns for buyer’s remorse or incorrect orders once production has begun, except where required otherwise by law.

7. Freelance and Commission Services

7.1 “Commission Services” means custom illustration, design, or other creative work performed for a client under an individual agreement.

7.2 The specific scope of work, timeline, pricing, and number of revisions for a commission will be agreed upon directly with the client before work begins, and that agreement takes precedence over this section where the two conflict.

7.3 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, a non-refundable deposit is required before work begins, with the remaining balance due upon completion and before final files are delivered.

7.4 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, we retain the right to display completed commission work in our portfolio and promotional materials. Full ownership and usage rights to the final deliverable transfer to the client only upon receipt of full payment; the specific rights transferred (personal use, commercial use, exclusive vs. non-exclusive) will be specified in the individual agreement.

7.5 Cancellations after work has begun may forfeit some or all of the deposit, depending on work already completed, as specified in the individual agreement.

7.6 Unless an Exclusive Rights license is purchased separately (see your individual agreement or the applicable Hire Me pricing), OliROArts retains the right to resell, relist, or otherwise redistribute a Commission Services deliverable as a stock/general-availability product through OliROArts’ own store, marketplaces, or other sales channels. For cartography commissions specifically, any client-specific text (place names, labels, or other identifying details you requested) will be removed or replaced with placeholder text before such resale; the version delivered to you is unaffected and keeps everything you asked for. This right is independent of, and survives alongside, the portfolio/promotional display rights described in Section 7.4.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

8.1 The Services are provided “AS IS” without warranties of any kind, express or implied.

8.2 We do not guarantee that the App or website will be error-free, secure, or uninterrupted. We are, however, working for it to be.

8.3 We are not liable for any loss of data, corruption of files, or damages arising from the use of the Services.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or relating to your use of the Services.

10. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the App, or decline to fulfill an order or commission, at any time, without prior notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms.

11. Changes to the Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Any changes will be posted with a revised “Last Updated” date. Continued use of the Services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

12. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Canada, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

By using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.
