WEBSITE POLICIES & TERMS OF SERVICE

SANDI BAKER ART



Last Updated: September 2026


Welcome to the website of Sandi Baker. These policies are intended

to make visiting the website and acquiring original artwork directly

from my studio clear, straightforward, and secure.


By using this website or purchasing artwork through it, you agree

to the applicable terms below.



1. PRIVACY, COOKIES & THIRD-PARTY SERVICES


Your privacy is important to me.


Personal information provided through purchases, inquiries, or

newsletter subscriptions may include your name, email address,

billing or shipping information, and other information you choose

to provide.


This information is used as reasonably necessary to process

transactions, communicate with you, fulfill purchases, provide

requested studio communications, and operate Sandi Baker Art.


Payment information is processed by the payment provider shown at

checkout. Sandi Baker Art does not receive or store your complete

credit-card or financial account information.


This website may use standard website technologies and third-party

services necessary for site operation, analytics, security, payment

processing, shipping, or advertising. Those services may use cookies

or similar technologies according to their own policies.


Sandi Baker Art does not sell, rent, or lease your personal

information to third parties.


Subscribers to the Studio Letter may unsubscribe from email

communications at any time.



2. ORIGINAL ARTWORK & REPRESENTATION


Unless otherwise stated, artwork offered for sale is an original

work created by Sandi Baker.


Dimensions, medium, price, and other relevant information are listed

on each individual artwork page.


Every reasonable effort is made to photograph and represent each

artwork accurately. However, screens and devices reproduce color,

brightness, contrast, texture, and detail differently. Lighting

conditions may also affect the appearance of physical artwork.


For these reasons, the appearance of an original painting may vary

slightly from its digital representation. Such normal differences

in digital display are not considered defects in the artwork.


Original artwork is sold in its existing physical condition unless

otherwise expressly stated.



3. PAYMENT, PRICING & AVAILABILITY


Payment must be received in full before artwork is released or

shipped unless other arrangements have been agreed to in writing.


Once an original artwork has been purchased, it is considered sold

and is withdrawn from the market.


Because each original is unique, availability is subject to prior

sale.


Reasonable efforts are made to ensure that prices, dimensions,

availability, and other information displayed on this website are

accurate. However, typographical, technical, or inventory errors

may occasionally occur.


If an artwork is mistakenly listed as available after it has sold,

or is offered at an incorrect price because of a technical or

typographical error, Sandi Baker Art reserves the right to correct

the error or cancel the affected transaction. If payment has already

been processed for a transaction that must be cancelled for one of

these reasons, the amount paid will be refunded.



4. SHIPPING & DELIVERY


Complimentary shipping is included with acquisitions within the

continental United States unless otherwise noted on the individual

artwork page.


Most paintings are professionally packed and shipped fully stretched,

wired, and ready to hang.


Shipments are insured as appropriate for the artwork and method of

transport. Most standard domestic shipments are sent through UPS.

Exceptionally large or otherwise specialized works may be transported

by a professional fine-art carrier.


For exceptionally large works, professional fine-art delivery may

be arranged so the painting can arrive fully stretched and ready to

hang. When specialized delivery is required, arrangements and any

applicable additional costs will be discussed with the collector.



5. INTERNATIONAL COLLECTORS


International acquisitions are warmly welcomed.


Because shipping costs, customs requirements, taxes, import

regulations, packaging standards, and carrier requirements vary by

destination and artwork size, international delivery is arranged

individually.


Depending on the destination and dimensions of the work, a painting

may be shipped fully stretched through a professional carrier or

carefully rolled for safe transit and professional stretching at

its destination.


International collectors should contact the studio before purchase

to discuss shipping arrangements and obtain a delivery quote.


Unless otherwise agreed in writing, applicable import duties, taxes,

customs fees, brokerage fees, or other charges imposed by the

destination country are the responsibility of the collector.



6. RETURNS, REFUNDS & CANCELLATIONS


All sales of original artwork are final. Returns, exchanges, and

refunds are not accepted for change of mind after purchase.


Each painting is a unique original and is withdrawn from the market

immediately upon sale. Collectors are encouraged to review artwork

images, dimensions, descriptions, and shipping information carefully

and to contact me with any questions before purchasing.


If there is a genuine problem with your acquisition, please contact

me directly. I want every collector to feel confident in both the

artwork and the purchasing experience, and I will work personally

with you to resolve legitimate concerns whenever reasonably possible.


Nothing in this policy limits any rights or remedies that cannot

legally be waived under applicable law.



7. SHIPPING DAMAGE & DELIVERY PROBLEMS


The final-sale policy does not prevent a collector from contacting

Sandi Baker Art regarding artwork damaged during transit or an error

made by the studio.


Artwork is insured during shipment as appropriate to its method of

transport.


Please inspect your shipment promptly upon delivery.


If the package shows visible signs of damage, photograph the unopened

package before opening it whenever possible.


If the artwork has been damaged during transit, please contact me

promptly and retain:


• the artwork

• the outer shipping container

• all interior packing materials

• shipping labels and documentation

• photographs showing the packaging and damage


These materials may be required by the shipping carrier or insurer

to investigate and process a claim.


Please do not discard packaging or return damaged artwork without

contacting me first.


I will work directly with you to coordinate the appropriate carrier

or insurance claim and determine the appropriate resolution.



8. COPYRIGHT & INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY


Purchase of an original artwork transfers ownership of the physical

artwork only.


Copyright and all reproduction, publication, licensing,

merchandising, and other intellectual-property rights remain with

Sandi Baker unless those rights have been expressly transferred in

a separate written agreement.


Purchasing an original artwork does not grant permission to reproduce,

publish, commercially exploit, manufacture merchandise from, license,

or otherwise commercially use the artwork or its image.


Collectors are welcome to photograph and share their artwork for

ordinary personal, non-commercial purposes. Credit to Sandi Baker

is always appreciated.


All original artwork images, photography, text, graphics, designs,

and other original content appearing on this website are protected

by applicable copyright and intellectual-property laws.


Website content may not be reproduced, distributed, published,

modified, commercially exploited, or used to create derivative

commercial products without written permission from Sandi Baker.



9. ARTWORK IN ROOM SETTINGS


Room settings and interior visualizations on this website are created

to help collectors and designers imagine artwork within an

environment.


The artwork shown in these visualizations is based on photographs of

the actual painting, while the surrounding room may be digitally

created, digitally altered, or otherwise created for presentation

purposes.


These images are intended for visual inspiration and presentation,

not precise architectural or scale accuracy.


The apparent size of a painting within a room visualization may

differ from its actual dimensions. Furnishings, walls, windows, and

other elements shown in a visualization should not be used as

measurement references.


Always refer to the published dimensions of the artwork and measure

your intended display space before purchasing.


It is the purchaser's responsibility to confirm that an artwork will

fit the intended location. Sandi Baker Art is not responsible for

sizing or placement issues resulting from reliance on a room

visualization rather than the published artwork dimensions.



10. ACCESSIBILITY


Sandi Baker Art is committed to making this website reasonably

accessible and usable for all visitors, including people with

disabilities.


Ongoing efforts are made to improve the accessibility and usability

of the website. Because websites may incorporate different

technologies, third-party services, and external payment systems,

individual experiences with assistive technologies may vary.


If you experience difficulty accessing information, viewing artwork,

using a feature of the website, or completing a purchase, please

contact me at:


sandi@sandibakerartist.com


I will make reasonable efforts to provide the requested information,

assistance, detailed artwork or room descriptions, or an alternative

means of accessing the service or completing your purchase.


Accessibility feedback is always welcome.



11. WEBSITE AVAILABILITY & ERRORS


Reasonable efforts are made to keep this website accurate and

available.


Sandi Baker Art is not responsible for temporary website outages,

server or hosting interruptions, third-party service failures,

browser or device incompatibilities, or other technical problems

outside the studio's reasonable control.


Information on the website may occasionally contain typographical

or technical errors. Sandi Baker Art reserves the right to correct

such errors when discovered.



12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY


To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sandi Baker Art

will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary,

punitive, or consequential damages arising from the use of this

website, the purchase of artwork, or matters relating to shipment

or delivery, including claims for emotional distress, except where

such liability cannot legally be limited or excluded.


To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sandi Baker Art's

aggregate liability arising from a particular purchase will not

exceed the amount actually paid to Sandi Baker Art for the transaction

giving rise to the claim.


Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot

lawfully be excluded or limited.



13. GOVERNING LAW & DISPUTES


These Terms and purchases made through Sandi Baker Art are governed

by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to

conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable law requires

otherwise.


If a dispute arises, the parties are encouraged to first make a

good-faith effort to resolve the matter directly before initiating

formal legal proceedings.


To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, legal proceedings

arising from these Terms or a purchase from Sandi Baker Art shall

be brought in an appropriate court located in North Carolina.


Nothing in these Terms limits any consumer right, remedy,

jurisdiction, or venue that cannot legally be waived.



14. SEVERABILITY & NO WAIVER


If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid,

unenforceable, or contrary to applicable law, that provision will

be limited or removed only to the extent necessary. The remaining

provisions will continue in effect.


If Sandi Baker Art chooses not to enforce a provision of these Terms

in a particular circumstance, that does not constitute a waiver of

the right to enforce that provision in another circumstance.



15. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS


These policies may be updated periodically to reflect changes in

studio practices, website services, shipping procedures, technology,

or applicable requirements.


The version posted on this website at the time of purchase will

govern that transaction unless otherwise required by applicable law.



16. QUESTIONS


I want acquiring my work to be a straightforward and enjoyable

experience.
