Terms of Service

Creators Standard Last updated: July 29, 2026

1. Overview

This website is operated by Creators Standard ("we," "us," "our"). Throughout the site, the terms "we," "us," and "our" refer to Creators Standard. Creators Standard offers this website, including all information, tools, and services available from this site to you, the user, conditioned upon your acceptance of all terms, conditions, policies, and notices stated here.

By visiting our site and/or purchasing something from us, you engage in our "Service" and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"), including any additional terms and policies referenced herein or available by hyperlink, such as our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, and Refund & Returns Policy. These Terms apply to all users of the site, including browsers, vendors, customers, merchants, and contributors of content.

Please read these Terms carefully before accessing or using our website. If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions of this agreement, then you may not access the website or use any Service.

Our online store is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.

2. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to update, change, or replace any part of these Terms by posting updates and changes to our website. It is your responsibility to check this page periodically for changes. Your continued use of or access to the website following the posting of any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes.

3. Eligibility and Store Use

By agreeing to these Terms, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, or that you are the age of majority and have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use this site.

You may not use our products for any illegal or unauthorized purpose, nor may you, in the use of the Service, violate any laws in your jurisdiction (including but not limited to copyright laws). You must not transmit any worms, viruses, or any code of a destructive nature. A breach or violation of any of these Terms may result in an immediate termination of your Services.

4. Products, Made-to-Order Fulfillment, and Product Descriptions

All apparel sold by Creators Standard is made to order and printed on demand. Nothing is pre-manufactured or held in inventory. Production of your item begins only after your order is placed and payment is captured. Please review Section 6 and our Refund & Returns Policy carefully, as this materially affects cancellations, exchanges, and returns.

Because each garment is individually printed and finished, you acknowledge and accept the following normal characteristics of print-on-demand manufacturing:

  • Minor variation in print placement, typically within approximately half an inch of the position shown in product mockups.
  • Slight variation in color between what appears on your screen and the finished garment. Screen calibration, display technology, and fabric type all affect final appearance.
  • Small variation in garment measurements within the manufacturer's stated tolerances.
  • Variation in fabric texture, weight, or dye lot between production runs and between garment styles.

These characteristics are inherent to the manufacturing process and are not considered defects.

We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colors and images of our products. Product images are representative mockups and may not reflect the exact finished item. We do not guarantee that the display of any color on your monitor will be accurate.

We reserve the right to modify, discontinue, or limit the quantity of any product or service at any time without notice. We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household, or per order, including orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same payment method, or the same billing or shipping address.

5. Sizing

Because our garments are made to order, we cannot accept returns or exchanges based on fit. Size charts are provided on each product page. You are responsible for reviewing the applicable size chart before completing your purchase. We strongly encourage measuring a garment you already own and comparing it against the chart rather than relying on your usual size, as sizing varies between blank suppliers and garment styles.

6. Orders, Pricing, Payment, and Cancellation

Prices for our products are subject to change without notice. All prices are listed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated. Applicable sales tax and shipping charges are calculated and displayed at checkout.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made at our store. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address and shipping address, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

We reserve the right to correct pricing or product description errors, including after an order has been submitted. If a product is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information due to a typographical, pricing, or system error, we may refuse or cancel the order and issue a full refund, whether or not the order has been confirmed and your payment method charged.

Cancellation and change window. Because items enter production quickly, requests to cancel or change an order — including size, color, quantity, or shipping address — must be received within 2 hours of order placement and can only be honored if production has not yet begun. Email stefan@tattoogeeks.digital with your order number as soon as possible. Once an item has entered production, it cannot be canceled, changed, or refunded except as described in our Refund & Returns Policy.

An order confirmation email does not constitute acceptance of your order. Your order is accepted when it enters production or ships.

7. Intellectual Property

All designs, artwork, graphics, logos, text, product names, page layouts, and other content on this site are the property of Creators Standard or its licensors and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You may not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or commercially exploit any portion of the Service, any product purchased from us, or any content on this website without our express prior written permission. Purchase of a garment conveys ownership of the physical item only. It does not transfer any right, title, license, or interest in the design printed on it.

You may not use our designs or artwork to produce derivative products, reproductions, or competing merchandise, whether for sale or free distribution.

8. Design Submissions and Third-Party Rights

If you submit, upload, or otherwise send us artwork, images, text, or other materials in connection with a custom or collaborative order ("Submissions"), you represent and warrant that:

  • You own all rights to the Submission, or you have obtained all necessary licenses, permissions, releases, and consents to authorize its reproduction on apparel.
  • The Submission does not infringe or misappropriate any copyright, trademark, trade dress, right of publicity, right of privacy, or other right of any third party.
  • The Submission does not contain unlawful, defamatory, obscene, hateful, or otherwise objectionable content.

You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to reproduce, print, and use the Submission solely as necessary to produce and fulfill your order, and, unless you notify us otherwise in writing, to display finished work in our portfolio and marketing materials.

We may refuse, without explanation, any Submission we believe infringes third-party rights or is otherwise objectionable, and will refund the affected order.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Creators Standard from any claim, demand, loss, liability, or expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or related to any Submission you provide.

Copyright complaints. If you believe content on this site infringes your copyright, send a written notice containing the information required under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) to stefan@tattoogeeks.digital.

Third-party links on this site may direct you to websites that are not affiliated with us. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy of third-party materials or websites, and we do not warrant and will not have any liability for any third-party materials, websites, products, or services.

Complaints, claims, concerns, or questions regarding third-party products should be directed to the third party.

10. Optional Tools and Comments

We may provide you with access to third-party tools over which we neither monitor nor have any control or input. You acknowledge and agree that we provide access to such tools "as is" and "as available," without any warranties, representations, or conditions of any kind and without any endorsement.

If you send us creative ideas, suggestions, proposals, plans, or other materials, whether online, by email, by postal mail, or otherwise ("Comments"), you agree that we may at any time, without restriction, edit, copy, publish, distribute, translate, and otherwise use in any medium any Comments that you forward to us. We are and shall be under no obligation to maintain any Comments in confidence, to pay compensation for any Comments, or to respond to any Comments.

You agree that your Comments will not violate any right of any third party and will not contain libelous or otherwise unlawful, abusive, or obscene material. You are solely responsible for any Comments you make and their accuracy.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties

We do not guarantee, represent, or warrant that your use of our Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. We do not warrant that the results obtained from the use of the Service will be accurate or reliable.

You agree that from time to time we may remove the Service for indefinite periods of time or cancel the Service at any time, without notice to you.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service and all products and services delivered to you through the Service are provided "as is" and "as available" for your use, without any representation, warranties, or conditions of any kind, either express or implied, including all implied warranties of merchantability, merchantable quality, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, and non-infringement.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable rights you may have under applicable consumer protection law.

14. Limitation of Liability

In no case shall Creators Standard, our directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, suppliers, service providers, or licensors be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind, including lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, arising from your use of any of the Service or any products procured using the Service, or for any other claim related in any way to your use of the Service or any product.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to your use of the Service or any product shall not exceed the amount you paid to us for the product or order giving rise to the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages. In such jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

15. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Creators Standard and our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, officers, directors, agents, contractors, licensors, service providers, subcontractors, suppliers, interns, and employees, harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of these Terms or the documents they incorporate by reference, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.

16. Severability and Waiver

In the event that any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms. Such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

17. Termination

The obligations and liabilities of the parties incurred prior to the termination date shall survive the termination of this agreement for all purposes. These Terms are effective unless and until terminated by either you or us. You may terminate these Terms at any time by notifying us that you no longer wish to use our Services, or when you cease using our site.

If in our sole judgment you fail, or we suspect that you have failed, to comply with any term or provision of these Terms, we also may terminate this agreement at any time without notice and you will remain liable for all amounts due up to and including the date of termination, and/or accordingly may deny you access to our Services.

18. Entire Agreement

These Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on this site constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, and proposals, whether oral or written, between you and us.

Any ambiguities in the interpretation of these Terms shall not be construed against the drafting party.
