Orders

These Terms of Use shall govern any order you make through the Site for Products and/or Services (such order, an “Order”).

  • When you place an Order on our Site for a specific Product(s), you will select your Products and provide your Payment information to Briarcliff Frame as set forth below. Briarcliff Frame will process your payment at the time that you place your Order.
  • The item that you wish to have framed is referred to herein as your “Artwork”. You may either send us a digital copy of your Artwork or the actual Artwork.
  • If you are providing Briarcliff Frame with a digital copy of your Artwork (the “Digital Artwork”), please upload the digital file of the Artwork to the Site. Briarcliff Frame will print such Artwork and frame such Artwork solely according to your specifications as set forth on the Site. Please note that Briarcliff Frame may choose to not complete your Order for any reason, including without limitation, if Briarcliff Frame believes that you do not have the proper ownership rights to reproduce the Digital Artwork. In such case, Briarcliff Frame will cancel your Order and refund any payments made by you.
  • If you are providing Briarcliff Frame with a non-digital copy of your Artwork, Briarcliff Frame will send you packaging material for you to package your Artwork and send such Artwork to Briarcliff Frame to be framed.
  • Upon your receipt of the packaging materials, please properly package your Artwork in accordance with the instructions set forth in such materials or as otherwise specified on the Site. Please send back to us your Artwork in such packaging Materials and in accordance with the delivery instructions provided to you by Briarcliff Frame. In the event that Briarcliff Frame has not received your Artwork within ninety (90) days of the date that you placed your Order, upon your written request, Briarcliff Frame will cancel your Order. Following such cancellation, Briarcliff Frame will refund the amount of your payment for such Order, less a $10.00 shipping and handling fee which will be retained by Briarcliff Frame.
  • Upon receipt of your Artwork, Briarcliff Frame will frame your Artwork using the Products set forth in your Order. In the event that Briarcliff Frame is not able to complete your Order for any reason, Briarcliff Frame will return to you your Artwork and refund any payments made by you.
  • Following completion of the framing of your Artwork, Briarcliff Frame will send to you your framed Artwork (the “Final Product”, which constitutes a Product under these Terms). The Products are subject to Briarcliff Frame then-current return policy, as posted on the Site.

Acceptance of Your Order: Your placement of an Order through our Site is an offer to purchase the Product(s) and/or Services ordered and we may accept your Order by processing your payment and shipping the Final Product(s). Your receipt of an electronic or other form of Order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your Order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. For any reason, we may decline to accept your Order or any part of your Order. No Order will be considered accepted by Briarcliff Frame until the Final Product(s) has been shipped to you. If some of the Products in your Order are temporarily out of stock, we will ship the available Products only and notify you of any Products that cannot be fulfilled. If we decline to accept your Order, we will attempt to notify you at the email address you provided. We further reserve the right any time after receipt of your Order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item. Your Order will be deemed accepted by Briarcliff Frame upon our delivery of the Final Products that you have ordered. We may require additional verifications or information before accepting any Order. All Products shall be deemed accepted by you upon shipment, and title to, and risk of loss of, the Products passes to you when Briarcliff Frame provides the Product(s) to a common carrier.

Shipping of Orders: Any estimated shipping date provided by Briarcliff Frame is based on the date that Briarcliff Frame receives your Artwork from you, Product availability and payment processing time, and does not include transit time. Briarcliff Frame only ships currently to addresses in the United States.

Payment

To pay for an Order, you will need to provide Briarcliff Frame with the information necessary to process an Order from you, including your shipping address and the billing information requested on the Site to pay for such Order. You may pay for your Order via credit card or any other manner then available on the Site. By submitting your payment information to us, you authorize us to charge the applicable payment method at our convenience but within thirty (30) days of credit card authorization. You represent that you will not use any credit card or other form of payment unless you have all necessary authorization to do so. We assume that because Orders require a valid credit card, only persons age 18 or over are placing Orders, and providing us with the information requested during the Order process. We shall not be liable in the event your children or others acting with or without your permission use your credit card or other means of payment to make purchases on the Site (and to the extent your minor children make any such purchases, you hereby represent and warrant that they are authorized to do so); however you may report any unauthorized use to us, and we will use reasonable measures within our control to help prevent future unauthorized use of your card.

Pricing and Products

We make efforts to display our Products and their colors as accurately as possible. Having said that, the displayed colors of the Products will depend upon your monitor and we cannot guarantee that your monitor will accurately portray the actual colors of the Products. Products displayed may be out-of-stock or discontinued, and prices are subject to change. We cannot confirm the price of an item until you place an Order. In addition, in the event that we receive your Artwork and we determine that the Product that you have ordered will not work for your Artwork, we will communicate with you to determine if you would like to change your Order to a different Product. In the event that you change your Order, the price of your Order will likely change. You authorize us to charge your payment method for any changes to your Order that you have approved. Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items on our Site may be mispriced. We are not responsible for typographical errors regarding price or any other matter. Unless otherwise noted on the Site at the time of your Order, all prices include shipping and handling. Unless otherwise set forth on the Site, the prices do not include sales taxes or any other taxes that we are required to add to your Order. Such taxes will be added to your total purchase price, if applicable.

Promotional offers; gift cards

We may run promotional offers from time to time on the site. The terms of any such promotion will be posted on the site. Unless otherwise indicated, we may establish and modify, in our sole discretion, the terms of such offer and end such offer at any point. Only one promotional code may be used per transaction.

Briarcliff Frame gift cards and gift certificates ("Gift cards") may only be redeemed toward the purchase of eligible goods and services provided by Briarcliff Frame on briarcliffframeshop.com. Purchases are deducted from the redeemer’s gift card balance. Any unused gift card balance will be placed in the redeemer’s briarcliffframeshop.com account. If a purchase exceeds the redeemer’s gift card balance, the remaining amount must be paid with another payment method. No fees apply to gift cards. Gift cards do not expire.

Gift cards may not be redeemed for the purchase of products at any other website. Gift cards cannot be used to purchase other gift cards. Gift cards cannot be reloaded, resold, transferred for value or redeemed for cash, except to the extent required by law. Unused gift card balances in a Briarcliff Frame account may not be transferred to another briarcliffframeshop.com account.

The risk of loss and title for gift cards pass to the purchaser upon Briarcliff Frame’s electronic transmission of the gift card to the purchaser or designated recipient, or Briarcliff Frame delivery to the carrier, whichever is applicable. Briarcliff Frame is not responsible if any gift card is lost, stolen, destroyed or used without your permission.

We have the right to close customer accounts and bill alternative forms of payment if a fraudulently obtained gift card is redeemed and/or used to make purchases on BriarcliffFrame.com

Briarcliff Frame makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to gift cards, including without limitation, any express or implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. In the event a gift card is non-functional, your sole remedy, and Briarcliff Frame’s sole liability, will be the replacement of such gift card. Certain state laws do not allow limitations on implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. If these laws apply to you, some or all of the above disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations may not apply to you, and you may have additional rights.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Briarcliff Frame may seek injunctive or other equitable relief to protect its intellectual property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction. Please note that the laws of the jurisdiction where you are located may be different from Delaware law, including the laws governing what can legally be sold, bought, exported, offered or imported. You shall always comply with all the international and domestic laws, ordinances, regulations and statutes that are applicable to your use of the Site and/or Services.
  • Any other dispute (including whether the claims asserted are arbitrable) shall be referred to and finally determined by binding and confidential arbitration. Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state arbitration law. The arbitration shall be conducted before one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). As modified by the Terms, and unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively “Rules and Procedures”).
  • You are thus GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights EXCEPT for matters that may be taken to small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. You are entitled to a FAIR HEARING, BUT the arbitration procedures are SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. Arbitrator decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT.
  • You and Briarcliff Frame must abide by the following rules: (1) ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR FRAMEBRIDGE MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; (2) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF; (3) in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, Briarcliff Frame will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (4) Briarcliff Frame also reserves the right in its sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for all of the costs of the arbitration; (5) the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized at law; (6) the arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for the purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award; (7) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and (8) each side pays its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses, and then in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by applicable law.
  • The arbitral proceedings, and all pleadings and written evidence will be in the English language. Any written evidence originally in a language other than English will be submitted in English translation accompanied by the original or true copy thereof. The English language version will control. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator will not have authority to award damages in excess of the amount, or other than the types, allowed by Section 17 of the Terms. Judgment on the award of the arbitrator may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator also shall be authorized to grant any temporary, preliminary or permanent equitable remedy or relief it deems just and equitable and within the scope of the Terms, including, without limitation, an injunction or order for specific performance. The arbitration award shall be final and binding upon the parties without appeal or review except as permitted by Delaware law or United States federal law.
  • Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Briarcliff Frame may bring an individual action in small claims court. Further, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret shall not be subject to this arbitration agreement. Such claims shall be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in Washington, D.C. Additionally, notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before the state or federal courts located in Washington, D.C., in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and hereby agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Washington, D.C. for such purpose. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate.
  • With the exception of (iv)(1) and (2) above (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis), if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, either (iv)(1) or (2) is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither you nor Briarcliff Frame shall be entitled to arbitration. If for any reason, a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute shall be exclusively brought in state or federal court in Washington, D.C. By using the Site and/or Services in any manner, you agree to the above arbitration provision.
  • Governing Law. The Terms and any action related thereto will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the State of Delaware, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act, without giving effect to any principles that provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.
  • Choice of Language. It is the express wish of the parties that these Terms and all related documents have been drawn up in English.
  • Export Control. You may not use, export, import, or transfer any Products or Briarcliff Frame materials except as authorized by U.S. law, the laws of the jurisdiction in which you obtained the Products or Briarcliff Frame materials, and any other applicable laws. In particular, but without limitation, the Products or Briarcliff Frame materials may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any United States embargoed countries; or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Denied Person’s List or Entity List. By using the Products or Briarcliff Frame materials, you represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You also will not use the Products or Briarcliff Frame materials for any purpose prohibited by U.S. law, including the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons. You acknowledge and agree that products, services or technology provided by Briarcliff Frame are subject to the export control laws and regulations of the United States. You shall comply with these laws and regulations and shall not, without prior U.S. government authorization, export, re-export, or transfer Briarcliff Frame products, services or technology, either directly or indirectly, to any country in violation of such laws and regulations.
  • Release. You hereby release the Briarcliff Frame Parties and their successors from claims, demands, any and all losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death, and property damage, that is either directly or indirectly related to or arises from your use of the Site and/or Services, including but not limited to, any interactions with or conduct of other Users or third-party websites of any kind arising in connection with or as a result of the Terms or your use of the Site and/or Services. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states, “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”
  • Notice. Where Briarcliff Frame requires that you provide an e-mail address, you are responsible for providing Briarcliff Frame with your most current e-mail address. In the event that the last e-mail address you provided to Briarcliff Frame is not valid, or for any reason is not capable of delivering to you any notices required/ permitted by the Terms, Briarcliff Frame’s dispatch of the e-mail containing such notice will nonetheless constitute effective notice. You may give notice to Briarcliff Frame at the following address: support@briarcliffframeshop.com. Such notice shall be deemed given when received by Briarcliff Frame by letter delivered by nationally recognized overnight delivery service or first class postage prepaid mail at the above address.
  • Waiver. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of the Terms on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.
  • Severability. If any provision of the Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of the Terms will remain enforceable, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
  • Entire Agreement. The Terms are the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
