Terms Of Service

1. Although each cartoon design is created from scratch and is 100% original, Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC cannot guarantee that a very similar cartoon does not already exist. Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC therefor offers no guarantee regarding the availability of trade names or trademarks. If a similar cartoon exists, Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC will work with the client to make the necessary alterations to the cartoon, free of charge. However, by ordering a cartoon design from Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC, the customer indemnifies Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC, it's owners and affiliated companies/affiliated individuals/cartoon designers from legal responsibility regarding all copyright, trade name and trademark issues. The customer agrees to take sole legal responsibility should the cartoon design be infringent upon existing intellectual property rights, copyrighted material, trade names or trademarks of any kind.

2. Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC pledges to assist the buyer in any up front trouble shooting that can be done to avoid any problems. We have a spotless record.

3. The turnaround times indicated on the web site cannot be guaranteed. We normally deliver all drafts (custom cartoons) within 5 business days. In fact, since we started nearly 20 years ago, we have only in very few cases failed to deliver within these time frames. We love happy clients and are fully committed to delivering within the indicated turnaround times whenever humanly possible.

4. In the custom cartoon design process, many cartoons are created that are not accepted by the client. Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC will retain ownership of all such concept cartoons, except for the final (accepted) version of the cartoon which will become the property of the client. The copyright to that entire image in all its forms is automatically transferred to the client upon completion of the design process. Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC will not have the right to resell or reuse the cartoon in any way. The only right we retain is the right to display all concept cartoons and the final cartoon design as part of our portfolio of past work, either on the Internet or any promotional material.

5. If we develop a cartoon for you and, at any stage of the process, you stop responding, your project status will remain "active" for 12 months. After 12 months the project status becomes "completed", which gives Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC the right to show the cartoon in its portfolio of past work, if it chooses to do so. Should you wish to resume the design work after 12 months, a new order must be submitted. Note that the 12-month deadline only applies in cases where the client stops responding. As long as we hear from you at least every 12 months, you project status will remain "active" until the project is completed.

6. Guy Gilchrist Productions LLC may change specifications of cartoon design packages, prices and the Terms of Service above at its discretion and without prior notice.
