Face Effects Notice
Face Effects (“Effects”) are an augmented reality feature that you can access by wearing an Accessory while using the Platform. The Effects react as you move, speak and otherwise express yourself while ‘wearing’ the Effects. This is a customizable interactive digital experience. In order to accurately place the Effects on to a user’s unique face, as well as stay in place while a user moves, the Platform estimates the location of facial features, (such as eyes, nose, or mouth) and points on your face. The Effects modify from a general model of a face and adjust to your face, for a custom fit. This information is not used to identify you, as further demonstrated in our Privacy Policy.
We do not store this information on our servers, or share or sell the information to third parties. The information may be stored on your device(s) used to access the Platform in order to make any repeat experiences and personalization more successful and efficient. Please note that while using the Effects, other individuals in the range of your device’s camera may be captured and/or recorded. The Platform may process information from images of other people who appear in the camera feed, photo, or video. Certain users accessing the Platform from certain territories may need to enable the Effects before it is able to access them.

When creating an account (“User Account”) you must complete the specified process by providing us with current, complete, and accurate information as requested by the applicable registration form. It is your responsibility to maintain the currency, completeness, and accuracy of your registration data, and any loss caused by your failure to do so is your responsibility.

It is your responsibility to select a secure password, and to maintain the confidentiality of your password and account.

If you suspect your login credentials have been compromised, please notify us immediately. STUDIO HALIA is not responsible for any delay in shutting down your User Account after you have reported a breach of security to us.

5. Terms of Sale
General
The STUDIO HALIA provides a marketplace for users to buy digital and non-digital items, such as Digital Expressions, clothing, accessories, and other items, through the Platform.
Transactions
You may be asked to supply certain information relevant to a transaction including, without limitation, information about your method of payment (such as your payment card number and expiration date), your billing address, and your shipping information. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO USE ANY PAYMENT CARD(S) OR OTHER PAYMENT METHOD(S) UTILIZED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSACTION.
By submitting such information, you grant to STUDIO HALIA the right to provide such information to third parties for purposes of facilitating the completion of transactions initiated by you or on your behalf. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of any transaction. If STUDIO HALIA is unable to process your payment using the payment method you provide, STUDIO HALIA may cancel or suspend your order in the event of any payment delinquency or until a valid payment method has been provided. All credit and debit card holders are subject to validation checks and authorization by STUDIO HALIA or its third party payment processor. If your card issuer refuses to authorize payment for your order, STUDIO HALIA will be unable to dispatch the goods to you, and STUDIO HALIA will not be responsible for any delay or non-delivery. STUDIO HALIA will not be informed of the reason for refusal and therefore, is unable to inform you of the reason that your card issuer has refused payment. STUDIO HALIA is not responsible for any card or bank charges issued by your card issuer as a result of processing payment for your order.
All descriptions, images, references, content, products and prices of goods described or depicted on the Platforms are subject to change at any time without notice. By placing an order, you represent that the goods ordered will be used only in a lawful manner.
STUDIO HALIA reserves the right, with or without prior notice, to do any one or more of the following: (i) limit the available quantity of or discontinue any good or service; (ii) impose additional conditions on any services or features through the Platform including auctions and any promotion or perk; (iii) bar any user from making or completing any or all transaction(s); and (iv) refuse to provide any user with any product or service. You agree to pay all charges that may be incurred by you or on your behalf through the Platform, at the price(s) in effect when such charges are incurred including, without limitation, all shipping and handling charges. In addition, you remain responsible for any taxes that may be applicable to your transaction(s).
Refunds and Returns
You understand and agree that you are charged at the time you place your order for goods.
There are a few important things to keep in mind when returning a product:
Once we receive your item, a refund is initiated immediately. The way your refund is processed depends on your original payment method. If you paid by credit or debit card, refunds will be sent to the card-issuing bank within five business days of receipt of the returned item or cancellation request. Please contact the card-issuing bank with questions about when the credit will be posted to your account.
You understand that if you return your item, you will also forfeit ownership of your Digital Expression. Upon such return of the physical product, STUDIO HALIA will ‘burn’ the Digital Expression in accordance with its internal processes and/or the processes of its third party affiliates.
For further inquiries regarding returns and/or refunds please contact us at [EMAIL]
Availability, Modifications, Errors & Inaccuracies
All goods available on the Platform are subject to change without notice and are available as supplies last. You hereby expressly accept and agree that STUDIO HALIA, at its sole discretion, reserves the right (without obligation) to substitute goods (or elements of goods) of greater or equal value in the event supplies of any one item (or elements of an item) run out. Goods may be available only in limited quantities and will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis or as otherwise described on the Platform. You should regularly consult the Platform for updates regarding product availability and terms.
STUDIO HALIA’s acknowledgement of an order means that your order request has been received; it does not mean that your order has been accepted or shipped or that the price or availability of an item has been confirmed. STUDIO HALIA aims to describe and display products accurately on the Platform. However, some items on the Platform may be mispriced, described inaccurately or unavailable, and STUDIO HALIA may experience delays in updating information on the Platform and in our advertising on other sites. As a result, STUDIO HALIA cannot and does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, and availability. STUDIO HALIA reserves the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time without prior notice.
Shipping
In most cases, you agree to allow between 4-6 weeks from receipt of full payment for goods to be shipped, unless otherwise stated on the Platform. Each item ordered may ship separately or together. All goods will be instructed to ship to the postal address that you specify through the Platform. No P.O. boxes allowed. Goods will only be shipped to jurisdictions where delivery is lawful, and we reserve the right to refuse delivery and/or sale for any purpose as we deem necessary in our sole and absolute discretion. No responsibility is assumed by STUDIO HALIA for any postal mail or overnight deliveries returned as undeliverable without a forwarding address. STUDIO HALIA reserves the right to charge you for shipping fees to re-ship any products that have been returned to STUDIO HALIA due to your shipment refusal, your failure to include a sufficient address, or if the product is otherwise undeliverable. STUDIO HALIA may be unable to change the delivery address after the order confirmation. Delivery dates advised by STUDIO HALIA in an order confirmation (consisting of a delivery date for the goods) are approximations and STUDIO HALIA will not be liable for any loss or damage due to its failure to meet scheduled delivery dates or for failure to give notice of delay. Time for delivery shall not be of the essence.
If any problems arise with your account, shipping address, or payment method connected with your account that STUDIO HALIA is unable to resolve, STUDIO HALIA may notify you through the email address associated with your order and your order may be cancelled. Additional orders may not be shipped until the problem has been resolved.

ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS RELATED TO THE PURCHASE OF DIGITAL EXPRESSIONS
These Additional Terms and Conditions apply to the services STUDIO HALIA makes available for sale of Digital Expressions and Associated Materials (as defined below) as well as, wherein applicable, physical (non-digital) items available at on the Platform.
By (1) acquiring a physical product via the platform and the corresponding non-fungible blockchain-based digital asset or token (each, an “Digital Expression”) through the Platform, or otherwise acquiring any such Digital Expression from a previous holder of the Digital Expression, and/or (2) indicating your acceptance of these Terms on the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, along with any additional terms provided to you on the Platform or otherwise in the process of making a purchase (collectively, these “Additional Terms”).
These Additional Terms apply to any person purchasing Digital Expressions (“you”, or “Purchaser”) on the Platform. Digital Expressions available for purchase on the Platform may include Digital Expressions created by STUDIO HALIA or its affiliates, including (unless otherwise stated, or where otherwise defined in a corresponding smart contract) Digital Expressions created and launched by other creators and designers selected by STUDIO HALIA to launch fashion collections (i.e. sell Digital Expressions within STUDIO HALIA’s primary marketplace) on the Platform (referred together herein as "STUDIO HALIA Digital Expressions").
These Additional Terms supplement STUDIO HALIA’s Standard Terms and Conditions set out above and STUDIO HALIA’s Privacy Policy. Certain capitalized terms used in these Additional Terms are defined in the Terms.
We may make changes and improvements to the Platform and update these Additional Terms from time to time. Changes to these Terms will be posted on the Platform, and to the extent required by applicable law, we will also notify you of any significant changes in advance, which may be by email or via a prominent notice on the Platform. You can choose to stop using the Platform at any time. New versions of these Additional Terms will take effect on the posted effective date. You agree to review these Additional Terms periodically to ensure that you are familiar with the most recent version.
1. Eligibility.
a. By using the Platform you represent and warrant that you have the full right, power and authority to agree to, abide by and comply with these Additional Terms, to access the Platform, and purchase any Digital Expression(s) as set forth herein. You further represent and warrant that you are of the legal age of majority in your applicable jurisdiction. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with any and all applicable laws and/or regulations in your local jurisdiction, and that STUDIO HALIA shall be liable to any extent for your compliance or failure to comply with any such laws and/or regulations.
b. You further represent and warrant that you have lawfully obtained all funds and/or assets (e.g., digital assets,) you may use for Platform transactions in compliance with all applicable laws and/or regulations. You acknowledge that STUDIO HALIA may require you to provide additional information and/or documentation and/or take certain action(s) in order to ensure compliance with applicable laws and/or regulations (e.g., those related to tax withholding, or anti-money laundering), compliance with these Terms, and/or any other reason, and agree that you will provide any such additional information and/or documentation upon request. You further acknowledge and agree that STUDIO HALIA and/or its designee(s) may remove your access to the Platform and your ability to purchase any Digital Expression(s) at any time, for any reason, with or without notice to you.
c. STUDIO HALIA reserves the right to terminate your access to and use of the Platform, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without notice, for any or no reason.
2. Transfer of Digital Expressions.
a. In order to receive any Digital Expression(s) through the Platform, you will be required to connect your digital-asset wallet to the Platform. Likewise, to sell an Digital Expression, you will need to connect your digital-asset wallet to the Platform, and ensure that the Digital Expression to be sold is contained in the wallet and available for transfer. You hereby grant the Platform permission to access and/or interact with such a wallet to the extent necessary to the Digital Expression(s) to be purchased or sold. Upon your complete purchase of the physical product, your Digital Expression will be automatically transferred to your wallet. You acknowledge and agree that, due to the nature of blockchain technology, once any transaction has been executed, the transaction cannot be cancelled or reversed. If the Platform is unable to deliver such Digital Expression(s) to the Purchaser’s wallet for any reason, the purchase may be voided. STUDIO HALIA shall not bear any responsibility for any Digital Expression(s) misdelivered as a result of incorrect information provided by you. You are responsible for ensuring that your respective digital-asset wallet is accurately and properly connected to the Platform.
b. STUDIO HALIA is not a wallet provider, exchange, broker, dealer, financial institution, payments processor, money services business, or creditor. We do not have custody or control over the Digital Expressions or blockchains you are interacting with and we do not execute or effectuate purchases, transfers, or sales of Digital Expressions. To acquire your Digital Expression, you must use a third-party wallet which allows you to engage in transactions on blockchains. You are solely responsible for keeping your wallet secure. You should never share your wallet credentials with anyone. You are responsible for complying with the terms and conditions of the applicable third party wallet provider of the wallet and connect with the Platform. STUDIO HALIA does not operate or maintain any digital-asset wallets and is not affiliated with parties who do. We do not have custody or control over the contents of your Wallet and we have no ability access or retrieve its contents. We do not take responsibility for the operation of your wallet or whether your wallet will interact with the Platform as expected or in the manner you intend.
c. Secondary Sales. STUDIO HALIA does not itself buy, sell or take custody or possession of Digital Expressions in any secondary sale, nor does it act as an agent or custodian for any user of the Platform. You will not be permitted to resell your Digital Expression under any circumstances.
3. License to any Associated Materials.
Holding a given Digital Expression may grant the holder license rights with respect to any digital artwork, models, software or other materials directly associated with such Digital Expression (with respect to a given Digital Expression, such artwork is referred to as “Associated Materials”). Associated Materials are separate from the corresponding Digital Expression. Purchase of an Digital Expression does not assign or transfer ownership of the Associated Materials to the Digital Expression Purchaser. Any rights with respect to the Associated Materials shall be licensed to the Purchaser solely as set forth in Section 6 below.
4. Grant of Rights.
a. With respect to STUDIO HALIA Digital Expressions: Unless otherwise expressly agreed to between a Purchaser of the applicable Digital Expression, the Purchaser of the Digital Expression will (for so long as they continue to hold the Digital Expression) have a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, worldwide license with respect to the Associated Materials directly and identifiably associated with, applicable and specific to such Digital Expression solely to display, perform and distribute such Associated Materials for non-commercial, personal use, including within audiovisual media (e.g., displaying such Associated Materials on a platform or service, including online games or online environment(s) that may be commonly known as “metaverse(s)”, solely for personal and non-commercial purposes), in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
c. The Purchaser represents and warrants that (i) it has the full power and authority to grant the foregoing rights; (ii) it has not entered into, and shall not enter into, any agreement, engagement, or other commitment that would interfere or conflict with the rights granted in these Additional Terms; (iii) its agreement to and performance under these Additional Terms will not violate the contractual, intellectual property, or proprietary rights (including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, and rights of publicity and privacy) of any third party; and (iv) it will not knowingly do or permit to be done any act that will, in whole or in part, materially deprive an any third party of its rights, privileges and benefits arising under or by reason of these Additional Terms.
5. Ownership and Limitations.
Except as specifically set forth in Section 6 above, a Purchaser does have any right, title or interest in or to any Associated Materials and will not be deemed to be granted any rights, whether express or implied.
With respect to any Associated Materials or any derivative works thereof, you may not:
a. create, sell or attempt to create or sell fractionalized interests in any Digital Expression and/or any Associated Materials associated therewith;
b. separate, unlink or decouple any Associated Materials from the Digital Expression(s) with which it is associated;

m. use any Associated Materials and/or exercise any license rights in any manner not expressly authorized herein.
For avoidance of doubt, you have no right to, and you will not, and you will not authorize, permit or assist any third party to, use any name, trademark, logo, branding or other intellectual property of STUDIO HALIA or any affiliate, commercial partner or licensor of STUDIO HALIA for any purpose not specifically set forth herein, or otherwise do or say anything to indicate or imply that STUDIO HALIA or any of its affiliates sponsors, promotes or endorses any product, service or media or provides any representations or warranties with respect to any product, service or media.
Also for the avoidance of doubt, if at any time you transfer an Digital Expression to a third party, any rights granted to you hereunder with respect to the Associated Materials associated therewith shall immediately terminate (without the requirement of notice) with no outstanding or ongoing obligation or liability to you.
6. Assumption of Risk.
You acknowledge that any and all Digital Expression(s) and/or Associated Materials is/are made available solely for entertainment purposes and not as an investment instrument of any kind. Accordingly, you acknowledge and agree that as a Purchaser you assume the following risks:
a. to the extent there is a secondary market and/or price for any Digital Expression, such markets and/or prices are extremely volatile, and variations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect the value of any digital asset(s) you own, such Digital Expression, and as such there is no guarantee that such Digital Expression will have or retain any value;
b. risks associated with digital assets (e.g., Digital Expressions) include, but are not limited to, (i) hardware, software and/or Internet failures, (ii) the loss of access to Digital Expression(s) due to, e.g., loss of so-called “private key(s)” or third-party custodial error, (iii) malicious software introduction (e.g., hacking or cyber-attacks), and/or (iv) third parties may obtain unauthorized access to information stored within your so-called “digital wallet” or elsewhere (e.g., fraud);
c. upgrades, so-called “hard forks,” failures, cessations or other changes to the blockchain(s) underlying the Digital Expressions may affect your access to and/or use of any Digital Expression or Associated Materials;

e. the risk of changes to the regulatory and/or policy regime(s) governing blockchain technologies (e.g., Digital Expressions) may adversely affect your access to and/or use of any Digital Expression or Associated Materials;
f. risks may occur from associated with transaction(s) between you and any third party(ies) (e.g., your transfer of an Digital Expression to any such third party).
In addition to assuming all of the above risks, as a Purchaser you acknowledge that you have obtained sufficient information to make informed decision(s) with respect to any Digital Expression (including, without limitation, the acquisition thereof and/or your entering into these Additional Terms) and that you understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining the nature, suitability and appropriateness of these risks for yourself.

Object to processing of your Personal Information when we are relying on a Legitimate Interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it infringes your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object when we are processing your Personal Information for marketing purposes.
