General Adopt TOS

Posted 3 years, 8 months ago by aquapyrofan

Note: This TOS only applies to adopts which are not part of EvoCrit, Eko, or any other projects or species with their own TOS.

Ownership

Characters bound by this TOS belong to their owners, who can sell them, trade them, or use them as they see fit within the following rules:

Designs must not be edited to the point that they are unrecognizable.
Designs must not be resold for more than they were purchased for. If a design is traded/gifted, its value resets to what it was traded for or zero, if it was gifted.
Designs may not be traded for "vouchers" if they cannot be sold/have no value
Designs may not be used commercially (selling prints/merch/etc of them)
Designs must be credited to aquapyrofan (if used on Toyhouse) or credited to aquapyrofan on other sites via ping or link
Original character art must be credited to aquapyrofan
Original character art must not be edited. If making design changes, create a new image.
You may not sell, trade, or gift characters to users on my blacklist.

Additionally, these characters may not be revoked for any reason. Original character art copyrights belong to aquapyrofan and may not be uploaded to anyone else's DA account. Original character art may be used by aquapyrofan for promotional reasons, such as art samples for commissions or similar.

Blacklisting

If any of the following occur, blacklisting may occur:

Trading a design for more than it's worth
Vouching designs which cannot be sold
Design theft
Repeated improper crediting
Art theft or claiming of original character art
Selling, trading, or gifting multiple characters to blacklisted users

Blacklisting bars users from being able to purchase, trade for, or otherwise obtain aquapyrofan's designs. It does not invalidate any designs they already own (save for where TOS allows).

Nobody yet. Let's keep it that way.
