SummaryOur platform at lightprint.com allows you to take advantage of and access a number of
services. These services are presented here in a short summary:
For reasons of clarity, these General Contract Terms and Conditions are divided into three
parts: Part A concerns all general provisions and rules for use of our online service. Part B
concerns the return policy. Part C contains general concluding provisions.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Who can register?
1.1. Registration is restricted to natural persons of full age and legal capacity, legal
persons, or partnerships. In particular, minors are not permitted to register. We ask for
your understanding in this matter.
1.2. We must request that all information requested during registration be filled out
completely and accurately, including your first and last names, current address (not a
post office box), telephone number (no value-added service number), a valid e-mail
address, and, if applicable, your VAT registration number(s) and any applicable VAT rules.
We will have the right, but not the obligation, to verify the accuracy of all statements
made.
1.3. Where registration is completed with respect to a legal person, registration may only
be made by a natural person with necessary authority. This person must be named.
1.4. If any or all of the information provided during registration changes, it is your
responsibility to update the information as soon as possible.
1.5. A username and password must be chosen during registration. Third-party rights,
such as copyright or trademark rights, must not be infringed upon by the username.
Furthermore, the username must not be deceptive, and it must not be illegal or harmful to
public policy. We will have the freedom to create explicit rules and limits for new user
names, as well as to reject current user names - retrospectively.
1.6. Passwords should be kept private, and account access should be restricted. If there is
any suspicion of third-party misuse of the account, you must notify us immediately.
2. How are our services provided?
2.1. Availability
We ask for your understanding that we are only able to make the Light Print website and
its functions available for use within the limits and scope of current technology.
2.2. Maintenance
We will maintain our system on a regular basis for the sake of future development and
security, as well as to ensure an error-free service. To this aim, and in consideration of
your best interests, we reserve the right to temporarily suspend or limit our services.
Maintenance work should be done when the equipment is not in use as much as possible.
If longer periods of interruption or restriction are required, we will notify you of the kind,
extent, and length of the impairment to the extent that this is possible given all of the
circumstances, and that such notice does not affect or delay necessary service repair.
2.3. System interference and breakdown
You are aware that, due to existing technological limitations, it is not possible to make
works available for viewing on the internet completely free of system interference and
breakdown. As a result, we accept no responsibility for non-accessibility of works due to
technical issues with communication networks, third-party security breaches (e.g. denial
of service attacks), or incomplete and/or dated offers on proxy servers (temporary
caches) where such factors are beyond our control.
SERVICES SUCH AS PRINTING, FRAMING AND MOUNTING, ETC.This section concerns our services with regard to printing, framing and lamination of
works carried out by us at your request.
1. What services do we provide?
1.1. We provide the following services when requested through the Light Print website's
input assistants: We prepare physical prints and copies based on digital submissions, that
is, the digital data is reproduced on to a material that can then be framed or laminated as
desired, e.g. for your personal or business use.
2. Workflow, production clearance, termination
2.1. A contract of sale is not formed until we provide you the ordered product. For the
avoidance of misunderstanding, the contract does not cover products that were part of
the same order but were later removed from the delivery papers. The delivery charges
must be invoiced. The cost of delivery will be specified at the time of ordering. You will be
responsible for any taxes or excise duties incurred as a result of delivery to a country
outside the United States.
2.2. All of our delivery deadlines are estimates only. We will be allowed to make partial
deliveries.
3. What remuneration do we receive for our services?
3.1. Point 1.1 outlined the compensation for our services. The current pricing list available
for viewing at lightprint.com as defined throughout the order process is used to determine
these General Contract Terms and Conditions. We reserve the right to amend the price
list for future orders at any moment and without notice.
4. How does the billing process work?
4.1. When placing an order, the buyer pays the sale price with a credit card (prepayment).
4.2. Light Print has the right to levy a $ 25.00 administration fee if the buyer's account
does not have adequate money or if the buyer opposes the debit charge being taken from
its account without good reason.
5. Title protection
5.1. Light Print retains ownership of the works produced until all payments are made in full.
6. Contractual obligations and third-party rights
6.1. We'll assume you own the relevant property rights to your works and that they're free
of any third-party encumbrances.
7. Information security is a responsibility.
7.1 It is your responsibility to make a backup copy of all sent data contents before
communicating your mandate to us. If you fail to produce such security backups and
damage or loss occurs as a result of this mandate, we will not be responsible for any
damage that might have been avoided if you had made a security backup copy.
8. What to do if you want to inquire about our services.
8.1. Merchants and merchants must inspect consignments immediately upon delivery in
the ordinary course of business and immediately notify us through email or phone of any
deficiencies.
8.2. In all other circumstances, all manifest faults must be reported within one week. The
date of delivery and the date of receipt of notification of defect are used to calculate this
time limit.
8.3. All contract papers must be made available to us in the event of any objections.
Failure to do so may cause a delay in the evaluation and processing of the defect
notification.
8.4. Partially defective deliveries do not justify rejection of the complete delivery, unless
the partial delivery is irrelevant.
9. What guarantee applies to our services?
9.1. In the event of a defect, we shall be right to make a fresh delivery or remedy the
problem at our discretion and within a reasonable time. If the attempt to deliver a new or
repair the defect fails, you have the choice to either cancel the contract or demand a
price reduction.
9.2. Like other dyes, the papers, dyes, chemicals, and other materials utilized in our
products and manufacturing processes may show minor variations over time. These
modifications may differ from one production batch to the next. Such differences in
product features are insufficient to constitute a fault.
9.3. Happiness Guarantee. Let us know if you're not completely satisfied with your order
for any reason, and we'll make it right as we do not offer refunds.
Customer Satisfaction PolicyIn the unlikely event that you would not be satisfied with your product, simply contact
customer service within 14 days of receiving your order by emailing
kevin@lightprint.com
with:
Including these things will help us to resolve things quickly. Please allow 1-2 business
days for our team to be in touch with you.
We are unable to exchange, replace, or reprint your order due to customer-caused errors
such as color differences between your computer and our professionally calibrated
printing systems, typos and misspellings, poor image quality or low resolution, layout
errors and missing images, blank pages or product design mistakes, content quality, and
product selection errors (i.e. product size, style or cover choices).
Due to damage caused by customer handling, storage, or treatment, we are unable to
offer exchanges, replace, or reprint.
We reserve the right to request that you return the product to us and at our discretion;
offer an exchange or reprint; issue store credit for items not including shipping; take no
action; or, reject request for a refund on rare occurrence (in that we have exhausted all
possible solutions and cannot find a resolution). Please ensure the work is packaged
appropriately and that it is protected. Ideally, use the original packaging in which the item
was delivered, including all protective material. You are responsible for covering the
regular cost of return postage if the goods delivered are as ordered and if the price of the
goods to be returned is less than 40, or in case of a higher price, if you have only
provided partial payment agreed under the terms of the contract.
Procedure if replacement is unavailable
If the material required for the manufacturing of your purchase is unavailable, we will
notify you as soon as possible and, if possible, provide an estimated delivery date or
recommend alternative product options.
General concluding provisions

third-party rights, or breached these General Contract Terms and Conditions, or if we
have any other legitimate interest, such as protecting other users from deception or
fraud, we may take the following actions:
