Parents and/or Artists retain ownership of an Artist’s artwork. By registering as a Parent of an Artist, the Parent, on behalf of both the Parent and the Artist, grants the Company a royalty-free right and license to use, re-use, copy, publish, republish, in whole or part, edit, add to, modify, and rearrange the Artist’s artwork solely in connection with:

We only provide online order codes to School Coordinators and Parents. School Coordinators and Parents are responsible for keeping online order codes private and may choose, in their sole discretion and at their sole risk, to share online order codes with those parties whom they authorize to view and purchase their Artist’s artwork. If a School Coordinator or Parent believes their online order code has been improperly accessed or disclosed, he or she may inform us in writing and request a new code, and the Company will use its best efforts to meet such request. If we haven’t received any such notice, we presume that the Parent has granted such permission to order merchandise depicting their Artist’s artwork. A SCHOOL COORDINATOR MAY ONLY ORDER MERCHANDISE CONTAINING AN ARTIST’S ARTWORK IF THE SCHOOL COORDINATOR HAS OBTAINED THE PRIOR CONSENT OF THE ARTIST’S PARENT (“PARENT CONSENT”). IF A SCHOOL COORDINATOR ORDERS MERCHANDISE CONTAINING AN ARTIST’S ARTWORK, THE SCHOOL COORDINATOR HEREBY REPRESENTS HE OR SHE HAS OBTAINED ALL APPLICABLE PARENT CONSENTS AND THAT WE CAN RELY ON SUCH REPRESENTATION IN FULFILLING SUCH ORDER.
