Products and Purchases

Product Information

We strive to display our products and their features accurately on the Site. However, the actual colors, dimensions, and details you see will depend on your monitor, and we cannot guarantee that your display will accurately portray the actual appearance of the products.

By providing payment information, you represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use the payment method you provide, and you authorize us to charge your payment method for the total amount of your order, including taxes and shipping fees.

Shipping and Delivery

Shipping times are estimates only and are not guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays in delivery once the products have been handed over to the shipping carrier.

You are responsible for ensuring that the shipping address you provide is accurate and complete. We are not responsible for products that are lost or damaged due to an incorrect shipping address.

Intellectual Property Rights

Our Intellectual Property

The Site and its entire contents, features, and functionality (including but not limited to all information, software, text, displays, images, video, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof), are owned by PiratcesWCap, its licensors, or other providers of such material and are protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws.

Photographer's Intellectual Property

The photographs available for purchase on the Site are owned by the respective photographers or their licensors. When you purchase a photograph, you are purchasing a print or digital copy of the photograph, not the copyright or other intellectual property rights to the photograph.

You may not:

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall PiratcesWCap, its directors, employees, partners, agents, suppliers, or affiliates be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation, loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

  • Your access to or use of or inability to access or use the Site or Services

Our total liability to you for all claims arising from or related to these Terms or your use of the Site or Services shall not exceed the amount paid by you to PiratcesWCap during the six (6) months preceding the event giving rise to the liability.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

Disclaimers and Warranties

The Site and Services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

Upon termination, your right to use the Site and Services will immediately cease. If you wish to terminate your account, you may simply discontinue using the Site and Services, or you may contact us to request account deletion.

All provisions of these Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms and your use of the Site and Services shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Kingdom, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms or the Site or Services shall be instituted exclusively in the courts of the United Kingdom, although we retain the right to bring any suit, action, or proceeding against you for breach of these Terms in your country of residence or any other relevant country.

In the event of any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising from or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site or Services, the parties shall use their best efforts to settle the dispute, claim, question, or disagreement. To this effect, they shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to both parties.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

Waiver

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of PiratcesWCap. No waiver of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

Changes to Terms

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will make reasonable efforts to provide at least 30 days' notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion.

By continuing to access or use our Site or Services after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. If you do not agree to the new terms, you are no longer authorized to use the Site or Services.
