Terms & Conditions & Privacy Policy

Welcome to the In My Mind’s Eye website. These Terms and Conditions outline the rules, regulations, and legal boundaries for accessing and using our online platform. By browsing or interacting with this website, you accept these terms in full. If you disagree with any part of these terms, you must not use our website.

1. About the Organisation and Website Scope

In My Mind’s Eye is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting the creative community. This website serves strictly as a non-commercial, promotional showcase space to preview upcoming art exhibitions and highlight various artists' work. This website does not process commercial transactions, facilitate online point-of-sale payments, or act as a retail e-commerce store.

2. Intellectual Property and Copyright Protection

All intellectual property rights, including but not limited to the copyrights of the artwork images, descriptions, biographies, and multimedia content displayed on this website, remain entirely and exclusively with the respective independent artists. Visitors are strictly prohibited from downloading, saving, screenshotting, copying, printing, distributing, modifying, or republishing any artist’s work from this site without obtaining prior, express written permission from the copyright-holding artist. Unauthorised digital replication or commercial misuse constitutes a direct violation of international intellectual property laws and the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

3. Display Modifications and Screen Disclaimers

In My Mind’s Eye makes every logical effort to display high-quality promotional digital representations of original artwork. However, due to differences in digital screens, device calibrations, ambient lighting, web browsers, and back lighting, we cannot guarantee absolute colour precision. In My Mind’s Eye accepts no responsibility or liability for discrepancies between the online presentation and the physical aesthetic of the original artwork.

4. Independent Transactions and Third-Party Sales Waiver

While original works are available for purchase during physical exhibition events or directly through communication with the respective artists, no sales are processed or managed by In My Mind’s Eye online. Any transaction, pricing negotiation, or agreement takes place entirely between the buyer and the independent artist. In My Mind’s Eye is not a party to, broker of, or intermediary in these transactions and disclaims all liability for the outcomes, payments, or terms of third-party purchases.

5. Shipping, Handling, and Returns Liability

Because all purchases occur directly through independent artists, the full operational responsibility for logistics—including secure packaging, delivery, shipping fees, transit insurance, international handling, custom duties, and return or refund policy enforcement—lies solely with the individual artist. In My Mind’s Eye bears zero liability for lost, damaged, delayed, or unfulfilled shipments.

6. Cookies and Data Privacy (UK GDPR Compliance)

We respect your digital privacy. This website operates in alignment with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. We collect minimal personal data, strictly limited to information you proactively supply (such as newsletter sign-ups or exhibition inquiries). Our platform uses cookies—small configuration files deployed to your browser—to remember basic preference metrics, track anonymous visitor traffic patterns via analytics, and ensure site security. By using our website, you consent to our use of functional and analytical cookies. You can manage or disable cookies at any time via your browser settings, though doing so may slightly alter your site navigation experience. We never sell, lease, or distribute your private contact details to external marketing entities.

7. Limitation of Website Liability

This website is provided on an 'as is' basis. In My Mind’s Eye makes no absolute warranties or contractual representations regarding constant website up time, technical error fixes, or the total absence of server-side glitches, malware, or digital disruptions. We reserve the right to alter, pause, or withdraw parts of our digital showcase without prior warning.

8. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and Conditions, your layout navigation, and any potential legal disputes or claims connected to this platform are exclusively governed by, interpreted by, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the United Kingdom (specifically England and Wales). Any legal proceedings must be initiated within the courts of jurisdiction in the United Kingdom.

9. Revisions and Contact Information

We reserve the right to update these terms at any time to reflect changing organisational practices or legislative alignments. Continued use of the site implies acceptance of updated terms. If you have questions about artist permissions, copyright verification, or privacy practices, please contact us through our official channels.
