Terms & Conditions and User Agreement

By creating an account or using INKVOW you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

House Of Pain Tattoo LLC may change, alter or modify these Terms at any time, at its sole discretion, as permitted by applicable law. Continued use after changes are posted means you accept the revised Terms.

Professional tattoo artists must be at least 18 years old and provide accurate information about their experience, styles, shop and time at that shop. Personal phone numbers may not be posted on artist or piercer profiles or in messages; only shop listings may display a business phone number. All client communication with artists happens through INKVOW messaging.

When you upload any artwork, sketch, flash, outline or stencil you represent and warrant that it is your own original work, that it is not copyrighted, trademarked or licensed by any other person, and that it does not infringe anyone's rights.

You take full responsibility for everything you upload. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive and release any claim or lawsuit against House Of Pain Tattoo LLC and INKVOW arising from your uploads or their sale, and you agree to indemnify the Company against third-party claims about your content.

INKVOW screens uploads for duplicates of other artists' work and for well-known copyrighted material, and may remove any content at any time. Screening is not a guarantee. Rights holders can report infringement on any design page; reported designs may be removed.

Buying a design grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to have that design tattooed. You may not resell, redistribute, share, or claim the artwork as your own. Flash artwork may be sold to more than one customer unless it is a custom design created for you.

Designs are digital downloads delivered by email and in My Purchases; all sales are final except where required by law. INKVOW does not perform tattoos and is not responsible for the quality, safety or outcome of any tattoo or piercing. Tattoo prices quoted by artists are estimates paid directly to the shop.

INKVOW is free to join. Tattoo and piercing studios may optionally subscribe to Studio Pro, a monthly advertising subscription billed through Stripe that promotes their listing first in the areas and interests they target; it renews monthly until cancelled and promotion ends at the close of the paid period. Placement depends on what each client searches and is not a guarantee of bookings.

On every design sold, INKVOW deducts a 5% service fee from the sale price (before taxes); the artist receives the remaining 95% through their connected Stripe account. Buyers pay any applicable sales tax on top of the design price. Payments are processed by Stripe.

Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of INKVOW will be resolved by binding individual arbitration under applicable arbitration laws (including the Federal Arbitration Act), not in court, except for small-claims matters. You waive the right to participate in a class action. This clause survives termination of your account.

INKVOW is provided "as is". To the maximum extent permitted by law, House Of Pain Tattoo LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, and its total liability is limited to the fees it received from you in the prior 12 months.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the state where House Of Pain Tattoo LLC is organized and by applicable federal law. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remain in effect.
