These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of our website https://www.katinthestudio.ca (“the Site”) and any purchases made through it.
By accessing or purchasing from our Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Site.
​
1. Products and Services
​
Kat in the Studio offers original artwork, fine art prints, and digital illustrations for sale.
We strive to represent all items accurately; however, colours and textures may appear slightly different depending on screen settings or materials.
We reserve the right to modify or discontinue any product at any time without notice.

2. Orders and Payments
All orders placed through the Site are subject to acceptance and availability.
Payments are securely processed through Wix Payments, PayPal, or Alipay.
We do not store payment card information on our servers.
Prices are displayed in your local currency for convenience through our Currency Converter, but all transactions are ultimately processed in Canadian Dollars (CAD) unless otherwise stated.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order, for example, if an item is out of stock, if payment is not authorized, or in the event of suspected fraud.
​
3. Shipping and Delivery
​
We ship artwork from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Shipping costs and estimated delivery times are shown during checkout.
International customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, or import fees.
Once an order has shipped, we are not liable for delivery delays caused by carriers or customs processes.
​
4. Returns and Refunds
​
Because each artwork is individually created, all sales of original artwork are final.
Prints and digital products are non-refundable once delivered, except in the case of damage or defect.
If you receive a damaged item, please contact katinthestudio@gmail.com within 7 days of delivery with your order number and photos of the issue. We will arrange a replacement or refund if applicable.

5. Custom Commissions
​
We offer custom artwork commissions through our Commissions Page.
-
A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to confirm a commission and secure your place in our schedule.
-
The remaining 50% is due upon completion of the artwork, prior to delivery or shipment.
-
Commissioned artwork will not be shipped or released until full payment has been received.
-
Deposits are non-refundable once work has begun.
-
Minor adjustments may be accommodated within reason, but major revisions or changes in concept after work has begun may incur additional charges.
We reserve the right to decline any commission request at our discretion.
