Terms of Service

Welcome to tantanphotography.com (the "Site"). By browsing or purchasing photos from this Site, you agree to these Terms of Service. This Site is operated out of Ontario, Canada, and is governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada.

1. License & Permitted Use

  • Personal Use Only: All photos purchased from this Site are licensed to you for personal, non-commercial use only (e.g., personal social media, printing for your home, sharing with family).

  • No Commercial Use: You may not resell, sub-license, use for advertising, or distribute these images to media outlets, businesses, or commercial entities without explicit, written consent from the photographer.

  • No Modification: You may not alter, edit, or remove any digital watermarks or signatures from the files unless a specific commercial release is purchased.

2. Copyright & Intellectual Property

  • Ownership: The photographer retains full copyright ownership of all images hosted on or purchased from this Site under the Canadian Copyright Act. Purchase of a print or digital file transfers a usage license, not copyright ownership.

3. Purchases & Refunds

  • Digital Sales: Due to the nature of digital downloads, all digital sales are final and non-refundable once the file has been delivered or downloaded.

  • Physical Prints: Damaged physical items must be reported within 7 days of delivery with photographic proof for a replacement or refund.

4. Consumer Protection & Liability

  • Ontario Consumer Protection Act: Purchases are subject to the Ontario Consumer Protection Act. We strive for total accuracy, but all images are provided "as is."

  • Limitation of Liability: The Site’s total liability for any claim arising from a purchase is strictly limited to the dollar amount you paid for that specific image or print.

5. Privacy & Data

  • PIPEDA Compliance: We value your privacy. Your personal information and payment details are collected and processed securely in compliance with the Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

6. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. Continued use of the Site constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
