Copyright, Intellectual Property, and Celebrity Artwork Compliance Clause

Ritwika’s (“the Company”) maintains a strict policy regarding the use, creation, and sale of artwork, including but not limited to framed prints, canvas prints, and digital illustrations (“Products”). The Company expressly states that it does not create, list, market, or sell any artwork that intentionally infringes upon the copyrights, likeness rights, personality rights, or any other intellectual property rights of individuals, entities, or rights holders.

All non-personalized artwork available for purchase on the Company’s platform is either (a) originally created through a combination of artificial intelligence tools and manual digital enhancement, or (b) created by in-house or contracted designers. Any resemblance to existing copyrighted works or celebrity images is unintentional.

In the event that any artwork displayed or sold by the Company is alleged to violate applicable copyright laws, publicity rights, or intellectual property rights, the rights holder or their duly authorized legal representative must notify the Company in writing at support@ritwikas.com, providing:

  • Sufficient evidence of ownership or rights;
  • A detailed description of the alleged infringement;
  • Any supporting legal documentation.

Upon receipt of a valid notice, the Company shall review the claim and, where appropriate, remove or modify the artwork in accordance with applicable laws and internal compliance procedures. The Company shall not be liable for inadvertent or unintentional violations arising from digital or AI-generated artwork.

Customer-Provided Content for Personalized Products

For custom and personalized products, the Customer acknowledges and warrants that any images, photographs, or content uploaded to the Company’s platform (“Customer Content”) are owned by the Customer or used with the full authorization, license, or consent of the rights holder. The Customer further acknowledges that they assume full responsibility for the legality of the content submitted.

The Company’s role is limited to printing Customer Content in the form received. Except for minimal adjustments required for layout or print resolution, the Company does not alter, edit, or manipulate Customer Content.

The Company will not accept or process personalized orders containing the following:

  • Copyrighted or trademarked images submitted without proper authorization;
  • Celebrity or public figure images submitted without appropriate usage rights;
  • Any content depicting nudity or sexually explicit material;
  • Any content involving minors in inappropriate, abusive, or exploitative contexts;
  • Any content that violates applicable laws or presents reputational, ethical, or legal risk.

Privacy, Confidentiality, and Data Retention

The Company affirms its commitment to customer privacy. Personalized artwork created for a Customer shall not be used, reproduced, displayed, or distributed by the Company for promotional, marketing, or commercial purposes without the Customer’s explicit, written consent.

Customer Content is stored solely for order fulfillment and operational requirements. All such content shall be permanently deleted from the Company’s systems within 30 days of order delivery, except where longer retention is required by law.

The Company implements reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect Customer Content; however, the Customer acknowledges that no system is entirely immune to risks inherent in digital storage.
