Customer content and IP 

1. Ownership and responsibility
   Customer is solely responsible for all content uploaded to create products. Customer represents and warrants that the content and any names, logos, or imagery are accurate, lawful, and used under rights owned or fully licensed to Customer. Provider does not monitor or verify ownership before printing and may refuse or cancel any order that appears unlawful.

2. Limited license to print
   Customer grants Provider a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to reproduce, adapt, and print the content only to manufacture and deliver the order and to provide related customer service. No other use is permitted.

3. Notice-and-action
   Provider offers an electronic notice form for alleged IP infringement. Upon a sufficiently precise notice, Provider may suspend processing, cancel the order, and preserve minimal evidence. Provider will issue a statement of reasons to Customer.

Provider may suspend or terminate accounts that are the subject of repeated substantiated infringement notices.

Indemnification and defense

Business customers: Customer will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Provider and its affiliates from all claims, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to the content or the order. On written notice, Customer must promptly assume and fund the defense, with Provider free to participate at its own cost.
Consumers: Where mandatory consumer law limits indemnities, Customer agrees to reimburse Provider’s direct losses and reasonable legal fees to the extent permitted by law if a third party claims the content infringes their rights.

Data disclosure for rights claims

Customer acknowledges that Provider may disclose Customer identification and order details to competent authorities or rightsholders when required by law or necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims, limited to what is necessary. Legal bases: GDPR Art. 6(1)(c) legal obligation and Art. 6(1)(f) legitimate interests. Rightsholders may also seek a court order for disclosure under the EU IP Enforcement Directive Article 8
