Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of These Terms

These Terms of Use govern access to and use of the current Alorialis informational and early-access website operated by The Alorialis Corporation, an Ontario, Canada corporation. By accessing or using the website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, discontinue use of the website.

2. About Alorialis

The current website describes Alorialis, its planned products, and early-access direction. It does not currently provide public account creation, checkouts, pricing, artwork sales, auction bidding, payments, shipping, ownership transfers, or public registry transactions.

3. Eligibility and Minors

You must have legal capacity to use the website or use it with the authorization and supervision required by applicable law. Because artists may include young people, Alorialis does not impose a blanket adult-only statement in this interim draft. A parent or guardian should supervise a minor’s communications with Alorialis where appropriate. Ontario legal review is required before publication of this clause.

4. Website Use

You may use the website for lawful personal purposes or on behalf of an organization you are authorized to represent, and you may contact Alorialis about legitimate enquiries. You are responsible for complying with applicable laws and for the accuracy of information you choose to send.

5. Prohibited Conduct

You must not interfere with or materially burden the website; bypass security or access controls; introduce malicious code; attempt unauthorized access to systems or data; impersonate another person; misrepresent affiliation, Registry Authority status, certification, provenance, or authority; infringe another person’s rights; submit unlawful content; or use the website for fraud or abuse. This clause is not intended to prohibit ordinary lawful search-engine indexing, accessibility tools, assistive technologies, or reasonable public-site access.

6. Alorialis Intellectual Property

The website, Alorialis name and branding, lily mark, interface, original text, graphics, software, and other original materials are owned by or licensed to The Alorialis Corporation and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. No ownership right is transferred. You receive only a limited, revocable, non-exclusive permission to access and use the public website in accordance with these Terms.

7. Artist and Third-Party Intellectual Property

Artists retain copyright and other rights in their works unless a separate agreement states otherwise. Artwork images, artist names, institutional marks, and other third-party materials remain subject to the rights of their respective owners. Displaying information on Alorialis, creating a REGIS identity record, or assigning an IID does not transfer copyright or artwork ownership. DOC remains the ownership-truth record where applicable.

8. User Communications and Submissions

If you email or otherwise send material to Alorialis, you represent that you have the right to do so. Unless Alorialis agrees otherwise in writing, the communication is not confidential and does not create a fiduciary, advisory, agency, partnership, professional, or other special relationship. You grant Alorialis only the limited permission reasonably necessary to receive, review, store, reproduce internally, and respond to the submission for the purpose for which it was sent and for related recordkeeping. No ownership, public-display, commercialization, model-training, or broader intellectual-property licence is granted by this interim clause. Do not send highly sensitive information by ordinary email. Ontario legal review is required before publication of this clause.

9. Early Access

General interest in Alorialis and the free Artist Workspace is open and is not described as selective admission. Early-access availability may change, and features may be added, revised, limited, or discontinued. Communicating with Alorialis or joining a future interest process does not guarantee timing, continuous availability, support, data migration, or access to a separate future service.

10. Future Marketplace and Auction Services

Any future Marketplace or Auction House service will require separate terms addressing participation, listings, eligibility, payments, commissions, taxes, shipping, transfers, refunds, consignments, and other transaction requirements before launch. Those services are not offered through the current website. These Terms do not complete a purchase, sale, bid, auction entry, consignment, payment, ownership transfer, provenance certification, or Registry Authority determination. Separate Ontario legal review and service-specific terms are required before those services launch.

11. Registry and Provenance Disclaimer

REGIS concerns artwork identity. An IID concerns the identity of a specific physical instance. Neither REGIS nor an IID is ownership, and website information does not itself create or transfer title. DOC is the ownership-truth record and ownership is instance-scoped, with one active DOC for each owned instance. Physical delivery alone does not transfer ownership until DOC is updated. CHRONOS is an append-only provenance and event timeline; certified entries are not edited or deleted and corrections are appended. ATLAS supports verification, risk, and escalation. Provenance Stewards may attest, but only the Alorialis Registry Authority certifies and seals records. Registry and provenance information may require independent verification, and public website content is not a substitute for a formal Registry Authority decision. Website content, listings, invoices, payments, messages, labels, custody records, imports, reports, or consignment records do not replace DOC.

12. Informational Content Only

Guides and website materials are general information, not legal, tax, insurance, valuation, investment, authentication, provenance, conservation, financial, or other professional advice. You should obtain appropriate independent advice for decisions that require it.

13. Third-Party Links and Services

The website may link to third-party websites or services. Alorialis does not control them, and inclusion of a link does not necessarily mean endorsement. Alorialis is not responsible for their availability, content, security, terms, or privacy practices.

14. Availability and Changes

Alorialis may update, interrupt, suspend, change, or discontinue website content or functionality and may correct errors without notice. Early product descriptions, timelines, and features may change. Alorialis does not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

15. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the website is provided on an as-is and as-available basis without promises that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or suitable for a particular purpose. Nothing in these Terms excludes a warranty, consumer right, or statutory right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Ontario legal review is required before publication of this clause.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Alorialis will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss arising from use of or inability to use the current informational website. Nothing in these Terms limits liability or a consumer, privacy, accessibility, intellectual-property, or other statutory right where limitation is prohibited by law. No monetary cap, class-action waiver, arbitration requirement, or consumer-rights waiver is asserted in this interim draft. Ontario legal review is required before publication of this clause and before any attempt to restrict statutory rights.

17. Indemnity

No indemnity obligation is imposed by this interim draft. Any indemnity clause requires founder approval and Ontario legal review before publication.

18. Restriction or Termination of Access

Alorialis may restrict or discontinue public website access where reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, misuse prevention, or protection of rights. Any future account or service termination terms must be stated separately. Restriction or termination does not authorize deletion or alteration of certified append-only CHRONOS entries or a valid DOC ownership record.

19. Governing Law and Dispute Venue

These Terms are intended to be governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable in Ontario, without overriding mandatory rights that apply to you. No exclusive court, arbitration requirement, class-action waiver, or specific dispute venue is selected in this interim draft. Ontario legal review is required before publication of this clause.

20. Severability

If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to the extent permitted by law, and the affected provision will be interpreted or limited only as necessary.

21. No Waiver

A failure or delay by Alorialis to enforce a provision is not a waiver of that provision or any other right.

22. Entire Agreement for the Current Website

These Terms and the Privacy Policy form the agreement concerning use of the current public informational website. They do not override separate Workspace, institutional, Marketplace, Auction House, registry, or signed agreements.

23. Assignment

You may not assign rights under these Terms without Alorialis’s written consent. Alorialis may assign these Terms only in connection with a lawful transfer or reorganization of the relevant website business, subject to applicable law.

24. Changes to These Terms

Alorialis may update these Terms as the website evolves. The revised version will identify its last-updated date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Continued use after an effective update constitutes acceptance only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
