1. Terms & Conditions
It is important that artists and users follow few but very important rules so we can all behave and have a great experience here on GGeeky.
Go read our TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
2. Copyright Laws
When you decide to submit your artworks to GGeeky, you declare that:
- The artwork is yours, created by you. You are the person who owns the right to it.
- The artwork doesn’t infringe the intellectual property rights or any other rights of any person or entity, doesn’t violate any copyright, trademark, moral rights, or rights of privacy or publicity. This applies both to the whole artwork and its single elements.
- The artwork does not violate any third-party agreement.
- The artwork does not contain material that defames any person, people, races, religion, and is not pornographic, harassing, harmful, or otherwise objectionable.
- If you are not the owner of the artwork, you declare to have permission to use the content and have all the rights required to display, sell, and reproduce the content. Keep in mind that, if that’s the case, we’ll need proof of that before we publish your artwork.
If your artwork does not meet all those 5 requirements, it won’t be accepted. GGeeky reserves the right to periodically review the artwork submitted, in its sole discretion or by external report. If discrepancies are found, we will remove any content from the website and/or cancel your account, because that content does not meet your agreement with us.
You agree to indemnify GGeeky in respect of any direct or indirect damage caused due to your breach of the agreement.
3. Payments
Every 15th of the month we pay your hard work for every sale made in the previous month.
For example: Marco’s X artwork has sold 10 copies of PREMIUM Cases and 10 Large Rectangular Wood Wall Art in April. On May 15th, he gets 90€ (40€ from PREMIUM and 50€ from Wall Art) on his PayPal account.
PayPal is the standard way in which we issue payments. You must have a verified PayPal account to receive the money you earned. Keep in mind that, although the pay cycle begins on the 15th, it may take a few extra business days to process (up to 5 business days).
PLEASE NOTE: you can also decide to get paid every 50€, so that PayPal fees (if you live outside EU) are less taxing. In this case, you should tell us as soon as possible.
Verify that the payment details provided are correct. Please make sure you have confirmed your account and provided us with the correct PayPal link/email.
We will not consider ourselves responsible for non-payment if the error is caused by your incorrect data communication. So make sure you type correctly.
You will be responsible for the payment of any tax that arises as a result of receiving payment from GGeeky.
Below, you’ll find what’s your margin for every product:
STANDARD: 3,5€, three and a half euros for every sale.
PREMIUM: 4€, four euros for every sale.
WOOD & CANVAS PRINTS
Small: 3,50€, three and a half euros for every sale.
Medium: 4€, four euros for every sale.
Large: 5€, five euros for every sale.
Premium Throw Pillows: 4€, four euros for every sale.
CLICKIT
1,50€, one euro and a half for every sale.
HARD MOUSE PADS
2€, two euro and a half for every sale.
What if I want to increase my margin? You can do that! These are just the commissions based on our product prices, but if you want, you can increase your margin. Just let us know and we'll work out a tailored solution.
3.5 Sales & Discounts
What happens when sales and discounts are applied to products? It’s simple: the same percentage of sales is applied to your commission.
So, for example, let’s say that everything goes on sale for 25% OFF. If a customer buys a BASIC case for 16,43€ (25% of 21,90 regular price), you will then get 2,25€ (25% of 3€ regular commission).
Site-wide discounts might give you the impression that you’re making less profit, but it’s good to keep in mind that discounts attract customers to the site and funnel them to your products.
4. Usage of your artworks
Once you submit your artworks to GGeeky, those will be shown in our store and we will have the rights to use it for promotional campaign on social media/web and in a traditional way. If you wish to stop our collaboration, no problem! Send us an email at [email protected] and we will remove any content from our store within 48 hours.
We wish this will never happen but it’s your choice!
Remember that this is not an exclusive collaboration, meaning you are free to submit your artworks everywhere you want.
5. Legal disputes
It is very important that you follow this agreement and that your artworks do not infringe any copyright or intellectual property.
So you agree to indemnify, defend and hold us, our agents and representatives harmless, as well as, all third parties printing, manufacturing and/or otherwise fulfilling the products you are selling via the website, their officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives harmless, from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable legal fees) or other expenses that arise directly or indirectly out of or from:
- your breach of any clause of this agreement;
- any allegation that any materials that you submit to us or transmit to the website infringe or otherwise violate the copyright, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property or other rights of any third party;
- and/or your activities in connection with the website.
This indemnity will be applicable without regard to the negligence of any party, including any indemnified person.
