You agree and covenant that at Lulu's request, and without further consideration, you will promptly provide Lulu with reasonable evidence of such adequate and enforceable rights of third parties (i.e., consents, approvals, licenses or sublicenses), and agree that Lulu may provide a copy of these Terms to anyone claiming an infringement of copyright/trademark relating to your Content or to law enforcement or other entities as required by law or as Lulu reasonably determines to be necessary to protect its rights or the rights of others.

If you do submit Content containing the likeness of an identifiable individual under the age of eighteen (18), we strongly encourage you not to include any identifying information (such as the individual’s name or address) with such Content.

  8. Limited Warranty and Return Policy

    Lulu warrants that, subject to minor differences across products and printing and manufacturing partners, the prints, books and other products will be free of any defects in material and workmanship. Lulu may, as your exclusive remedy, replace any print, book or other product it finds defective at its sole discretion, if you report such defect to Lulu within fourteen (14) days of delivery. Lulu does not proof, edit or change any of the Content in prints, books or other products you post or submit for print services.

YOUR CONTENT CANNOT BE EDITED ONCE IT IS UPLOADED TO THE WEBSITE FOR PRINTING. Therefore, you agree that you will not upload Content unless it has been fully proofed and you are satisfied that it is ready to be printed. Lulu is not responsible for any incorrect or inaccurate Content (including any profile information) posted on the Service.
  9. Contests and Other Promotions

    In addition to the terms and conditions of these Terms, any contests, sweepstakes, surveys, games or similar promotions (“Promotions”) made available through the Site may be governed by specific rules that are separate from this Agreement. By participating in any such Promotion, you will become subject to those rules, which may vary from the terms and conditions set forth herein. We urge you to review any specific rules applicable to a particular Promotion, which will be linked from such Promotion, and to review our Privacy Policy, which, in addition to these Terms, governs any information you submit in connection with such activities. To the extent that the terms and conditions of such rules conflict with these Terms, the terms and conditions of such rules shall control. However, Promotions are generally subject to the following rules and restrictions:

    • Each promotional offer claim code can be used only once.
    • Limit one offer per account.
    • The offer must be redeemed at our Site or Lulu.com, toward the purchase of products sold by Lulu. If Lulu is not the seller, that fact will be noted on the product detail page.
    • The offer may not be available to be redeemed at any other website operated by Lulu, its affiliates, or third-party merchants (including websites linked to or from the http://www.lulu.com site).
    • The offer cannot be used to pay for special-order titles, taxes, or shipping and handling charges.
    • If the offer has a minimum purchase requirement; taxes and shipping and handling charges do not apply toward the minimum purchase amount.
    • If you are ordering items to be shipped to more than one address, a separate order must be created for each address. The offer will be applied to only one of the resulting orders. Some offers may not be combined with other offers in the same order. Generally, only one promotional claim code may be used per order.
    • Each offer is valid for a limited time only and expires on the date specified in the offer.
    • The offer’s cash value is 1/100th of one cent.
    • The offer is not for resale and is not redeemable for cash.
    • The offer cannot be applied to orders already placed with Lulu.
    • If there is a problem with items purchased using a promotional code and Lulu grants a refund, you will receive a refund based on the discounted amount of the offer.
    • When you redeem an offer, Lulu can tell that you are part of a select group of customers to whom the promotional code was sent or distributed. For more information about data that Lulu collects from our customers, please read our Privacy Policy.

    Lulu reserves the right to refuse to honor any Promotion where we find, in our sole discretion, that you have abused our promotions and/or other processes to garner monies or other consideration by manipulation and/or other fraudulent and abusive techniques. If we find such activity to have occurred, we reserve the right to close your account, among other remedies.

  10. Mobile Applications

    In order to use one of our mobile applications (“Mobile App”), you must install mobile software on your mobile device and create an account, input your account information into the Mobile App as requested, register for an account, and meet certain hardware and connection requirements which may change as the Mobile App evolves. You are responsible for any Internet connection fees and/or mobile carrier charges you incur when accessing or using the Mobile App. Should you uninstall the Mobile App from your mobile device, you may not be able to use all or some of the features of the Mobile App. We may use reasonable efforts to accurately display the attributes of photographs that you order through the Mobile App, including the colors of those photographs, however, the actual color you see is dependent upon your mobile device, and we cannot guarantee that your mobile device will accurately display such colors.
  11. Web Addresses (URLs)

    We may provide you with access to and use of certain web pages and the corresponding web addresses (URLs). We do not guarantee the availability of any particular web page or URL, and we reserve the right, at any time and in our sole discretion, to reclaim, suspend, terminate and/or transfer any such web page or URL. In such cases, we may, at our option, provide another web page and URL.
  12. Third Parties and Other Users

    Content from users, advertisers, and other third parties are made available to you through the Service. Because Lulu does not control their content, you agree that Lulu is not responsible for any such content, including advertising and information about third party products or services.  Lulu makes no guarantees about the accuracy, currency, suitability, or quality of such content, and Lulu assumes no responsibility for unintended, objectionable, inaccurate, misleading, or unlawful content made available by other Members, business members, advertisers, and third parties.

    Your interactions with other users of the Site, or third parties, or with advertisers, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and the other users, the advertiser, or third party. The foregoing also applies to any interaction between users (including the contribution and/or receipt of any Content) in the course of using the Service’s functionality to make contributions to the prints, books or other products of other users and to receive contributions from other users to your own prints, books and other products. You agree that Lulu will not be responsible for any loss or damage incurred as the result of any such interactions and dealings or with respect to any other user’s use or disclosure of your personally identifiable information. If there is a dispute between you and any third party (including any user), Lulu is under no obligation to become involved; however, Lulu reserves the right to monitor disputes between you and other users.

    The Service allows you to contribute Content to the print, books and other products of other users and to receive such contributions for your own print, books or other products. Please be aware that only the user who invites other users to contribute Content (“Invitor”) has control over if and how any Content that is contributed by such invited users (“Contributor”) is used in connection with the Service and any books or other products that may be created using the Service. Lulu only provides a platform for Invitors and Contributors to contribute and receive Content for a print, book or other project and it is solely up to the Invitors and Contributors to agree on the use of such Content and the use and distribution of any print, book or other product that may contain such Content.
  13. Release

    You hereby release Lulu, its officers, employees, agents and successors from claims, demands, losses, damages, rights and actions of any kind including, without limitation, monetary damage, personal injuries death, and property damage, that is either directly or indirectly related to or arises from any interactions with other users. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”
  14. Third-Party Websites, Software and Services

    The Site may direct you to websites, software or services owned or operated by third parties (“Third Party Properties”). We have not reviewed all of the Third Party Properties to which you may be directed and we have no control over such Third Party Properties. We have no control over and are not responsible for (a) the content and operation of such Third Party Properties, or (b) the privacy or other practices of such Third Party Properties. The fact that Lulu or the Site directs you to such Third Party Properties does not indicate any approval or endorsement of any Third Party Properties. We direct you to such Third Party Properties only as a convenience. You are responsible for the costs associated with such Third Party Properties, including any applicable license fees and service charges. Accordingly, we strongly encourage you to become familiar with the terms of use and practices of any such Third Party Properties.

    Other websites may provide links to Lulu with or without our authorization. We do not endorse such sites, and are not and shall not be responsible or liable for any links from those sites to Lulu, any content, advertising, products or other materials available on or through such other sites, or any loss or damages incurred in connection therewith. We shall have the right, at any time and in our sole discretion, to block links to Lulu through technological or other means without prior notice.

    YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THIRD PARTY WEBSITES AND RESOURCES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, YOUR USE OF ANY CONTENT, INFORMATION, DATA, ADVERTISING, PRODUCTS, OR OTHER MATERIALS ON OR AVAILABLE THROUGH SUCH WEBSITES AND RESOURCES, IS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE APPLICABLE TO SUCH SITES AND RESOURCES.
  15. Copyright Issues

    We are not obligated to review Content for copyright infringement, but Lulu is committed to protecting copyrights and expects users of the Site to do the same. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that any material used or displayed on or through the Site infringes your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow us to locate the material on the Site; (d) the name, address, telephone number and email address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.copyright.gov/ for details. DMCA notices and counter-notices regarding Lulu should be sent to:

    ATTN: Legal Department

    Email: copyright@Lulu.com
  16. Indemnification

    You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us, our affiliates, parent companies, subsidiaries, distributors, partners, licensors, advertisers and sponsors, and our and their directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents and other representatives, harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and other expenses that arise directly or indirectly out of or from (a) your breach of these Terms; (b) your Content; (c) your activities in connection with the Site (including, without limitation, any and all purchases) and/or (d) any taxes, fees or penalties associated with your receipt of Creator Revenue or the sale of your Content.

    You will not do anything to intentionally prejudice the rights granted hereunder, but in the event that you lose any rights or other licenses, consents or permissions relating to specific Content that are necessary for you to grant the rights you grant to us hereunder, or you receive notice of a third-party claim relating to Content which you reasonably deem to be of concern, you will immediately retire or delete such Content from our Site. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the rights to the Content that you provide to us under this Agreement. Without limiting our rights or remedies under this Agreement, you will reimburse us for any refunds we make to Customers as a result of the withdrawal of Content under this Section. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph is intended to relieve you of your indemnification obligation above.
