Artist terms
Summary of the GetinArt Artists Programme terms. It is a plain-language overview: the relationship is governed by the Artists Programme Agreement, accepted online when applying with two tick boxes and a confirmation code sent by email.
Royalty calculation basis
The royalty is a percentage of the print price actually paid by the customer, excluding VAT: if discounts apply to the order (for example the Pro discount or a discount code), the royalty is reduced proportionally. Accessories (frames, spacers, installation kits), shipping and taxes are not included. The percentage depends on the product type and is shown on the "How it works" page. The royalty accrues when the order enters production.
Payments
Accrued royalties are paid every month, within 30 days of month end, via PayPal to the PayPal email in the artist profile. The minimum payout threshold is €25.00: below it the balance accumulates and is paid in the first month it is reached. When the agreement ends, the balance is paid even if below the threshold.
Returns, refunds and reversals
The royalty is not due if the order is cancelled, returned or refunded, if the customer withdraws, or if the payment is not collected or is disputed (chargeback). For partial refunds the royalty is reduced proportionally. If the royalty was already paid, the amount is deducted from later payments.
Intellectual property
The artist keeps the copyright in their works. The licence granted to GetinArt is non-exclusive and is used to produce, promote and sell the products: it includes the necessary technical adaptations (cropping, resizing, pattern repeats, colour corrections for printing, room mockups and previews), carried out without altering the meaning of the work. The exception is works marked as "unique work", for which the licence is exclusive (see below).
Unique works (exclusivity)
When uploading, the artist can mark a work as a "unique work", confirming with a tick box. For that work the licence to GetinArt becomes exclusive for wallpaper, prints, posters, canvases and other wall products: the artist may not sell, reproduce or license it for these products on any other website, platform, marketplace or shop, nor near-identical versions, and confirms it is not already for sale elsewhere. The physical original, exhibitions, personal portfolio and other uses (e.g. clothing, publishing) remain free. In return the royalty on that work increases by 5 percentage points. Exclusivity ends when the artist permanently withdraws the work (which is removed from the site) or when the agreement ends; hiding it temporarily is not enough. In case of breach the artist loses the increase, returns what was received and pays a penalty of the same amount (articles 4.4-4.6 of the agreement).
Requirements and responsibilities
The artist warrants that they are the author of the works or hold all rights to them, that the works do not infringe third-party rights (copyright, trademarks, designs, image of persons, privacy) or the law, and that they contain no defamatory, discriminatory, obscene or hate-inciting content. If a third party challenges a work, the artist holds GetinArt harmless from the costs, including legal fees and settlements. GetinArt does not verify rights in the works: approval and publication are not a check of ownership, for which the artist alone is responsible. The costs of a claim may be deducted from royalties. GetinArt may request an identity document and may refuse or remove non-compliant works, giving reasons.
Notices and removal
Anyone can report a work they believe is unlawful from the "Report content" page. Pending review GetinArt may suspend the work and its royalties, and informs the artist by email with the reasons. The artist cooperates by providing evidence and explanations within 10 days. If the notice is unfounded, the work goes back on sale and the suspended royalties are paid; if it is founded, the royalties on that work are not due.
Withdrawing works and ending the agreement
From the artist area you can hide a work (and make it visible again whenever you want) or withdraw it permanently: in both cases it is removed from sale on the site immediately, while external channels may take up to 7 days to update. Orders already received are still fulfilled and earn the royalty. The agreement has no fixed term and either party may withdraw with 90 days' notice by email; accrued royalties are paid even below the threshold.
Public profile and personal data
The artist profile is public: it shows name, images, biography, styles, links, works, user ratings and number of followers, and GetinArt uses it to promote works, products and the programme. Ratings, followers and sales may affect the visibility of the works. Data is processed to manage the agreement (no consent needed) as explained in the Privacy Policy; consent is only needed for the optional newsletter. Always keep a copy of your original files: the platform is not a storage service.
Changes and protections for private individuals
GetinArt may update the agreement and percentages for justified reasons, with 30 days' notice by email and never retroactively. For participants with a VAT number, silence means acceptance. For participants taking part as private individuals, substantial changes (for example lower percentages) require express acceptance at the first access to the artist area; those who do not accept can withdraw without penalty. The consumer's court remains applicable to private individuals.
