• Privacy Policy
• Collector Terms;
• and any other posted and referenced guidelines, rules, policies, terms, or conditions applicable to services that may be available at the Site.

This Agreement is between you and Acmé concerning your use of the website located at https://www.acme.art/ (including any successor sites and any other website, mobile app, marketplace, social media, or software that we operate or make available for the sale of NFTs) and any content, products or services that we make available there (collectively, the “Site”).The Site may allow users to mint and buy non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”) that contain or correspond to digital artworks (“Artworks”) created by Violeta Hernández or other artists (each, an “Artist”). For ease of reference, we refer to NFTs originally acquired through the Site as “Site NFTs” and a Site NFT together with the license rights in the corresponding Artwork as a “Digital Item.”

When you connect your cryptocurrency wallet to the Site using a trusted service provide such as MetaMask or Wallet Connect, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms and all of the terms incorporated herein by reference. By agreeing to these Terms, you hereby certify that you are at least 18 years of age. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Site.

1. Acceptance of Terms. Acmé makes the Site available subject to this Agreement. We may update or make changes to this Agreement from time to time in its sole discretion. You can determine when this Agreement (and other terms and policies posted on the Site) was last revised by referring to the “Last Updated” legend at the top of this Agreement.

2. Registration. You may need to provide your email address, register, or connect your blockchain wallet, e.g., MetaMask (your “Wallet”) to use all or part of the Site or to make purchases. You represent to us that all information you submit to the Site is complete and accurate.

3. Buying NFTs.
a. Connecting Your Wallet. Before you can mint or buy any Site NFT, you have to connect to the Site using your Wallet. Wallets like MetaMask are provided by unaffiliated third parties, and your use of such Wallets is governed by terms provided by the applicable third party (e.g. MetaMask). We’ll deliver Site NFTs that you buy through the Site directly to your Wallet.

c. Not an Investment in a Business. You represent to us that your purchase of Site NFTs is and will remain solely for your personal use and enjoyment. You understand that buying a Site NFT is akin to buying a physical artwork, and is not an investment in us or any other business, and you represent to us that you have no expectation of profit based on any of our activities. You shall not promote or market any Site NFT as an investment in us, or otherwise state or suggest that potential buyers of Site NFTs may expect to profit from their purchase or sale of Site NFTs.

5. Our Content. Our trade names, trademarks, and other indicia of origin include Acmé, and any associated logos (collectively, “Our Trademarks”) on the Site other than Our Trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

Nothing contained on the Site grants or should be construed as granting any license or right to use any of Our Content without our express prior written consent.

6. Artwork Storage. We may store Artworks using our own or third-party platforms, such as the Interplanetary File System (“IPFS”). WE CAN’T AND DON’T GUARANTEE THAT ANY ARTWORK WILL REMAIN AVAILABLE ON IPFS OR ANY OTHER PLATFORM, AND WE WILL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY, NOR WILL COLLECTORS OR PURCHASERS HAVE ANY REMEDY, IF ANY ARTWORKS BECOME UNAVAILABLE. We recommend that you download the associated Artwork (provided that you have the right to do so) in case it becomes unavailable on the Site or through the applicable third-party platform.

There may be fees associated with certain Payment Services, and you agree that you (and not we) will be responsible and liable for all such fees, including fees imposed on your transactions. You acknowledge and agree that we aren’t, and won’t be, responsible or liable for any Payment Service’s services, site, or acts or omissions.

In addition, if you engage in a transaction with us that relates to a public blockchain, we cannot edit, alter, modify, or delete any information that is stored on a public blockchain, for example the Ethereum blockchain, as we do not have control over any public blockchains and the blockchain is immutable (it cannot be changed).

Last updated:March 22, 2023

These Collector Terms govern the rights of owners of non-fungible tokens minted on distributed digital ledgers or blockchains (“NFTs”) that contain or correspond to digital artworks (“Artworks”) created by Violeta Hernández or other artists (each, an “Artist”), which NFTs are first made available through the website operated by Acmé, currently located at https://acme.art/ (the “Site,” as further defined in the). Such owners are referred to in these terms as “Collectors.”

If you mint or buy an NFT through the Site, the blockchain will identify your public blockchain address as the owner of the NFT and you will receive a limited license to the corresponding Artwork as described in these Collector Terms. But other than that license, you do not have any rights in the Artwork, all of which rights remain with and are reserved by us. For ease of reference, we refer to NFTs originally minted through the Site as “Site NFTs”. Subject to and conditioned upon your compliance with these Collector Terms, for as long as you own a Site NFT, we grant you a limited, personal, non-sublicensable license to display and perform the corresponding Artwork uniquely identified by the Site NFT, solely and exclusively for personal, non-commercial use. We grant you no other rights, whether express or implied, with respect to any Digital Item (in whole or in part), all of which we reserve.

2. Restrictions. You may not modify or prepare any derivative work based upon any Site NFT, or commercialize in whole or in part. Your license doesn’t permit you to, and you won’t authorize, permit or assist any third party to:
a. exercise any of the rights granted herein in any way that results in direct or indirect compensation, financial benefit or commercial gain of any kind to you or any third party;
b. delete, remove or obscure any trademark notice, copyright notice or other proprietary rights notice on or in any Site NFT;

e. use any Site NFT, in whole or in part in connection with any product, service, business, lobbying effort, political campaign, or message, or in any manner that could suggest or imply our sponsorship, affiliation or endorsement, or in any manner that is likely to cause confusion or dilute, blur or tarnish our rights.

3. Collector Perks. Although we have no obligation to do so, we may, or we may authorize third parties to, occasionally make additional content, physical items or other benefits available to the owners of Site NFTs (“Collector Perks”). It’s up to you to stay informed about Collector Perks (e.g., by visiting the Site or other social media accounts) and, if necessary, take any steps to request or collect Collector Perks, which may include verification of your ownership of the applicable Site NFTs).

4. Termination. If you breach these Terms or any other policies posted on the Site, your rights to any Site NFT, including the rights to display and perform corresponding Artworks, will immediately terminate without notice
