Terms of service

To the extent allowed by applicable law, we reserve the right to change these Terms and the Supplemental Terms at any time without prior notice. When we make changes, the new Terms will be made available at the Hallmark Canada Properties, and any new Supplemental Terms will be made available from within, or through, the affected services on the applicable Hallmark Canada Properties. We may also provide notice to you in other ways, such as through contact information you have provided. Your continued use of any of the Hallmark Canada Properties after the effective date of the revised Terms and/or Supplemental Terms as applicable (or engaging in such other conduct as we may reasonably specify) will constitute your consent to those changes to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law.

Hallmark may modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the products or services we offer through the Hallmark Canada Properties (collectively “Services”), at any time for any reason, with or without notice to you, including the availability of any Hallmark Canada Property, or any feature or Content (defined below) of a Hallmark Canada Property.

a. Hallmark Ownership

Except with respect to User Content (defined in Section 3(c) below), Hallmark, its licensors, or suppliers own all rights, title, and interest in and to the Hallmark Canada Properties, and all copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights embodied therein, whether or not applied for or registered, including but not limited to the following: names, logos, text, characters, graphics or other artwork, icons, photos, products, digital downloads, sound recordings, audiovisual materials or effects, titles, themes, objects, animations, musical compositions, moral rights, documentation, data compilations, computer code or software, features, and functionality of the Hallmark Canada Properties, and any compilation of the foregoing (collectively, “Hallmark Content”).

b. Hallmark Canada’s License to You

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and any applicable Supplemental Terms, Hallmark grants to you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferrable license to engage in the following activities for non-commercial purposes only:

1.

2. To use the Hallmark Canada Properties, where applicable, to send personal, non-commercial messages;
3. To link to the Hallmark Canada Properties, provided, however, that your website or any third party websites that link to the Hallmark Canada Properties: (a) must not frame or create a browser or border environment around any of Hallmark Content or otherwise mirror any part of the Hallmark Canada Properties; (b) must not imply that Hallmark is endorsing or sponsoring it or its products or services, unless Hallmark has given it prior written consent; (c) must not present false information about, or disparage, tarnish, or otherwise, in Hallmark Canada’s sole opinion, harm Hallmark or its Services; (d) must not use any Hallmark Canada trademarks without the prior written permission from Hallmark Canada; (e) must not contain content that could be construed as distasteful, offensive or controversial or otherwise objectionable (in Hallmark Canada’s sole opinion); and (f) must be owned and controlled by you or the person or entity placing the link, or otherwise permit you to enable such link subject to these Terms. By linking to a Hallmark Canada Property, you agree that you do and will continue to comply with the above linking requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in these Terms, Hallmark Canada reserves the right to prohibit linking to the Hallmark Canada Properties for any reason in our sole and absolute discretion even if the linking complies with the requirements described above.

c. User Content

You and other users may have the ability to upload to, transmit through, or otherwise make available (collectively, “Upload”) through the Hallmark Canada Properties personalized messages, audio, video, photographs, files, data, reviews, discussions in community forums, or other materials (collectively, “User Content”). You are solely and entirely responsible for User Content that you Upload using the Hallmark Canada Properties. You acknowledge that other users of the Hallmark Canada Properties, and not Hallmark Canada, are similarly responsible for all User Content they Upload using the Hallmark Canada Properties. You agree that you have no right, title, or interest in or to any Content that you have not Uploaded that appears on or through the Hallmark Canada Properties.

You acknowledge that Hallmark Canada has no obligation to pre-screen, monitor, or investigate User Content, but that it reserves the right to do so.

Subject to any applicable Account settings that we may choose to make available to you, and which you may then choose to select, you grant to Hallmark Canada a fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, and fully sublicensable right (including any moral rights) and license to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, create derivative works of, publicly perform, and publicly display your User Content, in whole or in part, together (at Hallmark Canada’s option) with the names and likenesses of any persons identifiable therein, in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed, for the purposes of operating and providing the Hallmark Canada Properties and their services to you and to other users. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to User Content that is provided to Hallmark Canada solely for the purpose of incorporating such User Content into a product or service ordered by you, you grant such right to Hallmark Canada for the sole purpose of making and delivering products and services ordered by you.

e. No Confidential Relationship/No Unsolicited Materials

Except as otherwise described in our Privacy Policy, any User Content will be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary, and we will not be liable for any use or disclosure of User Content. You acknowledge and agree that your relationship with Hallmark Canada is not a confidential, fiduciary, or other type of special relationship, and that your decision to submit any User Content does not impose any confidentiality obligations on Hallmark Canada.

It is our policy not to accept or consider content, information, ideas, suggestions, or other materials other than those we have specifically requested, to which certain specific terms, conditions and requirements may apply. This is to avoid any misunderstandings if your ideas are similar to those we have developed or are developing independently. Accordingly, Hallmark Canada does not accept unsolicited materials or ideas, and takes no responsibility for any materials or ideas so transmitted and you agree that any such ideas transmitted to Hallmark Canada are included in the above license you grant to Hallmark for any User Content.

You agree and understand that we are not obligated to post, keep, or use your User Content.

f. Your Warranty to Hallmark Canada

You represent and warrant that you are the owner of all rights, title, and interest in and to the User Content you Upload (or such User Content is in the public domain), or otherwise have all rights necessary to grant the license provided for in these Terms, including without limitation that any other holder of any worldwide intellectual property right, including moral rights (to the extent allowed by applicable law), in the User Content you Upload, has completely and effectively waived all such rights and validly and irrevocably granted to you the right to grant the license stated above. You further warrant that the User Content you Upload is accurate, does not violate these Terms, and will not cause injury to any person or entity.

If you send an item (such as a card, ornament, or gift), whether such item is physical or digital, to another individual, you acknowledge and agree that you, not Hallmark Canada, are the sender of such card or message, and that we act merely as a delivery agent.
