Terms of Service — Arts by Dylan

Last Updated: February 17, 2026

Welcome to Arts by Dylan (ABD). By browsing our shop or making a purchase, you acknowledge that you agree to the following terms and conditions. Our goal is to strike a balance between protecting the creative integrity of the artist and upholding your rights as a collector.


1. The Artistic Process (Photography & Synthesis)

At Arts by Dylan, we take pride in our artistic process, which involves:

  • Original Capture: Each piece begins with original photography captured by Dylan.
  • Atmospheric Synthesis: Our unique processing techniques refine and enhance the images to create distinctive works of art.
  • Intellectual Property & Protected Assets: All artwork created by Dylan is protected by copyright law.
  • Theme & Style Palettes: Many of the color schemes and palettes used in the 30 ABD theme styles originate from actual photographs taken by Dylan Carpowich or other art created by the artist. These palettes were extracted and refined with AI-assisted tools and used to generate or edit the theme’s CSS, so the same artistic vision extends to the look and feel of the shop itself.
  • Final Product: The resulting art is an original creative expression that transcends raw photography, representing a unique artistic vision.

2. Intellectual Property & "Vibe Coded" Assets

The distinctive aesthetic, digital logic, and overall "vibe" of Arts by Dylan are safeguarded as proprietary assets. This includes:

  • Copyright Protection: All images, designs, and text created by Arts by Dylan are the exclusive property of our brand. We strictly prohibit unauthorized reproduction, resale, or commercial use of our works.
  • Vibe Coding & Unique Artistic Style: Our "Vibe Coded Assets" refer to a distinct artistic style developed through carefully crafted digital parameters. While certain styles may be similar, the unique synthesis of our visuals is protected under copyright law.
  • Personal Use: Purchases grant you a license for personal display only. You may not use ABD art for commercial branding, advertising, or as training data for AI models without prior written consent.

3. Software & Logic (MIT License)

Parts of our digital experience, specifically the code used for theme animations or "vibe scripts" that may be shared for community use, are governed by the MIT License:

Copyright (c) 2026 Arts by Dylan

Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy
of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal
in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights
to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell
copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is
furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions:

copies or substantial portions of the Software.

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,

4. E-commerce & Liability

  • Platform: ABD is hosted on Shopify. While we secure our theme-level logic, Shopify handles the secure server-side processing of your transactions.
  • Accuracy: We strive for color accuracy, but please note that "vibe-coded" atmospheres may vary slightly depending on your screen settings and the physical print medium.
  • Limitation of Liability: Arts by Dylan is not liable for any indirect or consequential damages arising from the use of our site or the purchase of our products beyond the total purchase price.

5. Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising from these terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. We believe in direct communication—if you have an issue, please reach out to us first at artsbydylan@gmail.com.


Thank you for supporting independent art and respecting the creative process.

Email Marketing Policy — Arts by Dylan

Last Updated: February 17, 2026


1. Compliance with Data Protection Laws

At Arts by Dylan, we prioritize transparency and adhere to data protection regulations. Our email marketing list is compiled from publicly available sources, ensuring that any personal information is obtained lawfully.

Key Principles

  • We do not purchase, sell, or trade private consumer information.
  • Email addresses used for marketing purposes are sourced directly from publicly accessible websites and government records.
  • Information publicly posted online or made available through public records is considered a legitimate source of data, as per applicable laws and regulations.

2. Compliance with California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

At Arts by Dylan, we operate below the thresholds established by the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which means we do not fall under CCPA requirements for consumer data collection:

  1. Our annual gross revenue is below $25 million, ensuring we are exempt from CCPA requirements.
  2. We do not collect or process the personal data of 100,000 or more California residents, households, or devices, aligning with CCPA's minimal data collection threshold.
  3. Additionally, we do not derive 50% or more of our annual revenue from the sale of personal information, further solidifying our compliance status.

By operating below these thresholds, we maintain a lower risk profile and provide a secure environment for our customers' sensitive data.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides an exemption for publicly available information, which is not subject to consumer privacy protections. This exemption applies to:

  • Public records, such as addresses, job titles, salaries, and other publicly disclosed contact information.
  • Government-maintained directories and staff listings.
  • Publicly accessible professional profiles and organizational websites.

Our email list is comprised of names and emails sourced from publicly available sources, such as public records and professional directories. As these pieces of information are already in the public domain, we do not need to obtain your consent to include them in our email lists.

  • Medical information
  • Financial or credit reporting data
