Terms of Use

1. Who these terms are with

Grid Your Art ("we", "us", "our") operates the website at gridyourart.com and the grid drawing tool available on it. We are a small independent operation based in Australia.

These terms apply whenever you use the site or the tool. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site. You can reach us at support@gridyourart.com.

2. What Grid Your Art is

Grid Your Art draws a grid over an image so you can transfer it to paper or canvas using the grid method. It also produces a scaled reference sheet and a grayscale version to work from.

The tool runs entirely in your browser. Your image is never uploaded to us and never reaches our servers, and everything the tool produces is generated on your own device.

You do not need an account. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to cancel.

3. Price and what you get

Composing and previewing your grid is free. Downloading the finished files costs $2.00 USD as a single one-off payment.

That payment unlocks unlimited downloads for one hour. During that hour you can download as many grids as you like, at any size or ratio, as often as you want. It is a one-off charge and not a subscription, and we will not charge you again unless you choose to buy another hour.

Your unlock is stored in your browser rather than in an account, which means it applies only to the browser and device you paid on. If you clear your browsing data, use private browsing, or move to another device during the hour, the unlock will be lost. Because it lives in your browser and not with us, we are not able to restore one lost this way.

Download everything you need before you close or clear your browser.

4. Payment

Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card details.

Your receipt comes from Stripe and includes a receipt number. Keep it, because it is what we use to find your payment if you need support.

Prices are in US dollars. Your bank may apply a currency conversion fee, which is set by them and outside our control.

5. Refunds

If you believe you are entitled to a refund, submit a request within 7 days of your purchase through the support page, along with the reason for your request.

You will need the email address you paid with and your receipt number. Every request is checked against our payment records before a refund is issued, and requests we cannot match to a payment are declined. We ask for both details because a receipt number on its own is not proof that a payment belongs to you.

Approved refunds are returned to the card you paid with, and usually appear within five to ten business days depending on your bank.

Nothing in these terms limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, or under any other consumer protection law that applies where you live. Those rights exist regardless of what this page says.

6. Your images and your artwork

You keep every right you already have in the images you use and in the artwork you make from them.

Because the tool runs in your browser, we never receive your images and could not use them even if we wanted to. We claim no licence and no ownership over anything you upload or produce.

You are free to sell, exhibit, publish or otherwise commercially use the artwork you create with the tool. We ask for no credit and no royalty.

You are responsible for having the right to use the images you upload. Gridding someone else's photograph does not give you the right to publish or sell the result, and that is a matter between you and whoever owns the copyright.

7. Acceptable use

When using the site and the tool, you agree not to:

• copy, mirror, republish or redistribute the tool, the site, or any part of either
• reverse engineer, decompile or attempt to derive the source of the tool, except where the law expressly permits it
• circumvent, disable or interfere with the payment step or any access control
• scrape, crawl or bulk-download the site or its assets, beyond ordinary search engine indexing
• use automated means to create payments or refund requests
• resell, rent or sublicense access to the tool
• use the site or the tool for anything unlawful

If you do any of these, we may block your access without notice.

8. Our intellectual property

The tool, the site, the code behind them, the written guides, the sample packs and the Grid Your Art name and branding are ours, and are protected by copyright.

Buying an unlock buys you the right to use the tool and to keep the files it produces. It does not transfer any ownership in the tool or the site, and it does not give you any right to copy or redistribute them.

The output files are yours. The thing that made them is not.

9. Availability

We aim to keep the site running, but this is a small operation and we do not promise uninterrupted availability. The site may be unavailable for maintenance, or because of problems with the hosting, payment or other services we rely on.

The tool is provided as is. We do not warrant that it will be free of bugs, that it will work on every browser and device, or that its output will suit every particular purpose. Very large images can exceed what a browser is able to process, particularly on phones and tablets.

If the tool does not work for you, contact us through the support page.

10. Limits on our liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the site or the tool. That includes lost time, wasted materials, spoiled artwork, missed deadlines and lost profits.

Where our liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid us, which for almost everyone is $2.00.

Once again, nothing here limits any right you have under the Australian Consumer Law or another consumer protection law that applies to you. Under that law, our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded.

11. Age

This site is not directed at children. You should be at least 16 to use it, and if you are under 18 you should have a parent or guardian's permission before paying for anything.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. If we do, we will change the date at the top of this page. The version that applies to your purchase is the one published at the time you made it.

If a change is significant, we will make it obvious rather than quietly editing the page.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of Australia. If any part of them turns out to be unenforceable, the rest of them continue to apply.

If something goes wrong, please email us before anything else. Almost every problem can be settled with a short conversation.
