Terms of Service

CraftVista ("Company"/"we"/"us") owns and operates the marketplace and website at craftvista.com, along with any related services (together called the "Services"). Read through these terms of use ("Terms") carefully. By using the Services, you're indicating that you accept these Terms. If you don't accept them, don't use the Services or any of its content or features. These Terms can change, and if you keep using the Services after we make updates, that means you're agreeing to the new version. Any new features we add to the Services will follow these Terms unless we say otherwise. Check back on this page from time to time to see if anything has changed.

COMMUNITY & CONDUCT RULES

The Services exist because of community, fairness, integrity and respect, so please follow the rules and engage thoughtfully. This section covers account creation, community features, and what you're not allowed to do. User Accounts. You get one account per platform or device, though we'd recommend just keeping a single account across everything. If you decide to maintain multiple accounts on different devices anyway, they absolutely cannot interact with each other in any way. If we find that they have interacted, we may ban, reset, or penalize one or more of those accounts. Product Listings & Account Sales. Anything you create on CraftVista (product listings, shop info, etc.) can't be sold, transferred, or traded for real money outside the platform. Trying to do this breaks these Terms and could get you permanently banned from the Website/Services, plus we might take legal action. All marketplace sales are final and follow individual maker policies. You can't redeem product information or listings anywhere except CraftVista. We have the right to manage, regulate, modify, or remove listings and shop features whenever we want, and we're not responsible to you or anyone else for doing that. You're responsible for everything that happens on your account, whether you do it or someone else who has access to it does. If your account gets terminated or suspended for any reason, you lose all your shop content and listings. General Conduct & Prohibited Acts. Some activities break our rules. You're not allowed to: Use the Services if you're under 13 years old. Pick a name or shop handle that disrespects other users or makers. Use bots, auto-clickers, hacks, exploits, or any other conduct we've said is against our rules. Accuse other users or makers of fraud through any part of the Services. This includes forums, maker pages, messages, and chat. If you genuinely suspect fraud and have proof, contact us directly using our contact form instead. Upload, post, email, transmit, or otherwise share: anything unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, pornographic, sexually explicit, libelous, invasive of privacy, hateful, or racially or ethnically objectionable. Same goes for stuff that encourages crime, causes legal problems, breaks any law, or is otherwise objectionable. material that infringes on anyone's intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or publicity rights. material you don't have the right to share. lies or misrepresentations, or anything that creates a false or misleading impression. This includes pretending to be another user or our staff, or anything that could harm minors. Interfere with or disrupt the Services (including security features) or the servers and networks connected to them. Don't ignore any requirements, procedures, policies, or regulations of those networks. Don't probe, scan, test vulnerabilities, breach security, or bypass authentication measures. Break any local, state, national, or international law or regulation, whether on purpose or by accident. Resell the Services, access to the Services, or any of its content. Do anything else these Terms say you can't do. Action by Company. If you do any of those prohibited activities, we may delete your posts or threads (chat, forum, profile pages) and temporarily or permanently limit, block, suspend, or terminate your account depending on how serious the violation is. We might also impose other sanctions we think are appropriate. Availability. We can alter, suspend, or discontinue the Services anytime and for any reason without telling you. The Services might be unavailable sometimes due to maintenance, equipment issues, or other problems. We might add to or update information and materials on the Services without notice. We reserve the right to change and update the marketplace whenever we need to.
