Terms

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of this website (the "Site"), operated by ALAS, a creative studio based in the United States. By using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. The Site

The Site presents our studio and selected work. Its content is provided for general information only and is not an offer to provide services. Any engagement with ALAS is governed by a separate written agreement signed by both parties.

2. Intellectual property

The Site and its content — including text, images, video, audio, design, code, and the ALAS name and marks — are owned by ALAS or by our clients, collaborators and licensors, and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws of the United States and other countries. Work shown on the Site may belong to our clients and is displayed with their permission. No license is granted except as stated in these Terms.

3. Permitted use

You may view the Site and share links to it for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute or publicly display its content without our prior written permission; scrape, harvest or collect content or data by automated means, including to train artificial intelligence or machine-learning models; attempt to access restricted areas, circumvent access controls or interfere with the Site's operation or security; or use the Site for any unlawful purpose.

4. What you send us

When you contact us, you agree to provide accurate information and to have the right to share it. Unless we sign a confidentiality agreement, ideas and materials you send are not treated as confidential, although we handle your personal information as described in our Privacy Policy. You grant us the limited right to use what you send to respond to you and evaluate a potential project.

5. Third-party links

The Site may link to third-party websites and services, such as social networks. We do not control and are not responsible for their content or practices.

6. Copyright complaints

If you believe content on the Site infringes your copyright, send a notice to hello@alas.agency identifying the work, the material on the Site and your contact details, with a statement of good faith and accuracy, in line with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. We will review and respond promptly.

7. Disclaimer

The Site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free or free of harmful components.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ALAS will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data or goodwill, arising from your use of the Site. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Site will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100). Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations, so they may not apply to you in full.

9. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold ALAS harmless from claims arising from your misuse of the Site or your breach of these Terms.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and of the state in which ALAS has its principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located there. If you are a consumer in another country, you keep any mandatory protections that the laws of your country of residence give you.

11. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. The date at the top shows when they last changed; continuing to use the Site after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
