Terms of Service

Last updated: 30 September 2025

1) Who we are

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Pastiland websites, apps, smart contracts, and related services (collectively, the "Site"). "We," "us," and "our" refer to [Pastiland / Pastiland Studio]. By accessing the Site, you agree to these Terms.

If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

2) What Pastiland is

Pastiland is an artist-led practice and worldbuilding project. The Site showcases artworks, including Pastiland Originals (1/1 digital works). Some works are available as NFTs (non-fungible tokens) minted on public blockchains.

3) Eligibility & wallets

You must be at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction (and in any case 13+). To collect or access token-gated features, you may connect a third-party crypto wallet. Wallets are not created, controlled, or operated by us. You are responsible for safeguarding your wallet, seed phrase, and keys. We do not store or have access to your private keys and cannot help recover them.

4) NFTs, ownership & license

Owning a Pastiland NFT means you own the token—a record on a blockchain pointing to associated metadata and media. Unless a specific license is provided on the artwork page or in the token metadata, you receive a personal, non-commercial license to:

  • display the work for personal use;
  • resell or transfer the NFT; and
  • display the work on marketplaces and galleries for sale, attribution intact.

All other rights (including copyrights, trademarks, and moral rights) are reserved by the artist. You may not:

  • use the work for commercial purposes (e.g., merchandising) without written permission;
  • create new NFTs from the work;
  • remove or alter attribution; or
  • use the work in any hateful, defamatory, or unlawful context.

If a specific piece grants broader rights (e.g., limited commercial use), those terms control for that piece.

5) Smart contracts, fees & royalties

Transactions involving NFTs (mints, transfers, sales) are executed by smart contracts on public networks. You agree to pay all gas fees, marketplace fees, and artist royalties (if applicable) enforced by the marketplace or smart contract. Marketplace policies and royalty enforcement can change; we do not control third-party policies or uptime.

6) Prices, taxes & refunds

Unless stated otherwise, all sales are final. Digital assets are volatile; values can go up or down. You are responsible for any taxes arising from your purchases or sales.

7) Risks you accept

Using blockchain technology carries risks, including but not limited to: smart-contract bugs, network congestion, failed transactions, phishing, price volatility, loss of keys, and regulatory changes. You accept these risks. We are not responsible for losses arising from them.

8) Content you submit

If you submit content (comments, messages, files), you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, display, and reproduce that content for operating the Site. You represent you have the rights to everything you submit and that it does not violate any law or third-party rights.

9) Prohibited uses

You agree not to:

  • violate any law or regulation;
  • infringe intellectual property or privacy rights;
  • use bots or scrapers that degrade the Site;
  • attempt to breach security or disrupt networks; or
  • use the Site to launder funds or engage in fraud.

We may suspend or terminate access for violations.

10) Intellectual property (Site)

All non-token Site materials (text, graphics, code, logos, design) are owned by us or our licensors and protected by law. Except as expressly permitted, you may not copy, modify, or distribute Site materials.

11) Third-party links & services

The Site may link to or rely on third-party services (e.g., wallets, marketplaces, analytics, hosting). We do not endorse or control them and are not responsible for their content, terms, or availability.

12) Disclaimers

The Site is provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

13) Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we (and our directors, employees, and contributors) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from or relating to your use of the Site or NFTs, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our aggregate liability shall not exceed the greater of (a) USD $100 or (b) the amounts you paid to us (if any) in the 12 months before the claim.

14) Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Site or violation of these Terms.

15) Changes to the Site and Terms

We may modify or discontinue the Site (in whole or part) without notice. We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date shows the latest revision. Continued use after changes means you accept the new Terms.

16) Governing law & venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of [Spain] without regard to conflict of law rules. The courts of [Barcelona, Spain] shall have exclusive jurisdiction, and you consent to their personal jurisdiction and venue. If you are a consumer in the EU/UK, you may have mandatory local rights that prevail.
