Subscription Agreement
Last Updated: August 29, 2026
This agreement governs a paid Art Show Hub subscription. Your general use of the site is also governed by our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
This Subscription Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into between Artburst Studios, a Colorado limited liability company doing business as “Art Show Hub” (“Art Show Hub,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), and the individual or organization that registers for, installs, or uses the Service (“Customer,” “you,” or “your”). It is effective on the date you first accept it (the “Effective Date”).
By creating an account, clicking “I agree,” installing the Art Show Hub plugin, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you agree to this Agreement. If you accept on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
Your general use of our website and app is also governed by our Terms of Service at https://artshowhub.com/terms and our Privacy Policy at https://artshowhub.com/privacy. This Agreement governs your paid subscription; where it conflicts with the Terms of Service about a paid subscription, this Agreement controls.
1. Definitions
“Service” means the Art Show Hub software platform, including the hosted application, plugin, embeds, and related features and documentation we make available.
“Plan” means the subscription tier you select — Studio, Gallery, Gallery Pro, Enterprise, or a free plugin edition — together with any add-ons, as described at https://artshowhub.com/pricing or in your order.
“Subscription Term” means the monthly or annual period for which you have paid, including renewals.
“Show” means a curated online exhibition created and managed through the Service.
“Artwork” means images and related details (titles, media, dimensions, prices, and similar information) submitted for display in a Show.

2. The Service and License
2.1 License. Subject to this Agreement and your payment of applicable fees, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to access and use the Service during your Subscription Term, and to embed your Shows into a website you own or control.
2.2 Free edition. The free plugin edition is provided at no charge, with reduced features and capacity. It is licensed on the same terms as this Agreement, except that fee-related provisions do not apply. We may modify or discontinue the free edition at any time.
2.3 Reserved rights. We and our licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Service and all related software and intellectual property. No rights are granted except as expressly stated here.
2.4 Beta / founding features. Features identified as beta, founding, or early-access may change or be withdrawn and are provided “as is.”
3. Accounts, Roles, and Responsibilities
3.1 Registration. You must provide accurate account information and keep it current. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity under your account.
3.2 Roles. Your Administrator manages your account and may create Curator and Vendor Artist roles. You are responsible for the acts and omissions of all users you authorize, including your Vendor Artists, as if they were your own.
3.3 Eligibility. You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service.
4. Plans, Fees, and Billing
4.1 Fees. You agree to pay the fees for your selected Plan and any add-ons at the rates stated in your order. Except as required by law or expressly stated here, fees are non-refundable (see Section 6).
4.2 Billing cycle and renewal. Plans are billed monthly or annually in advance and automatically renew for successive periods of the same length until cancelled under Section 6. By subscribing, you authorize us and our payment processor to charge your payment method on each renewal.
4.3 Add-ons. Optional add-ons are billed as follows: (a) Additional Vendor Artist — $5 per artist up to a maximum of five for a single Show, where you exceed your Plan’s artist limit for that Show. (b) Other Future Features may be made available.
4.4 Charter Member terms. Charter rates apply only to eligible Plans (Gallery and Gallery Pro) purchased on annual billing during the Charter launch window ending March 31, 2027. Charter rates require annual billing paid in advance, remain fixed through two renewal cycles, and then convert to then-current standard pricing after at least 60 days’ notice. Upgrading between eligible Plans preserves the Charter discount for the remainder of the two-year period. Charter pricing does not apply to the Studio or free editions.
4.5 Nonprofit discount. Qualifying 501(c)(3) organizations may receive an additional discount with proof of status; it stacks with Charter pricing where offered.
4.6 Price changes. We may change standard prices and add-on rates on at least [30] days’ notice, effective on your next renewal. Charter and other locked rates are protected for their stated period.
4.7 Taxes. Fees are exclusive of taxes. You are responsible for any sales, use, VAT, or similar taxes, excluding taxes on our net income.
4.8 Failed or late payment. If a charge fails, we may retry, and we may suspend the Service under Section 16 if fees remain unpaid after notice.
5. Storage Limits and Overages
5.1 Soft caps. Each Plan includes an image-storage soft cap as published at https://artshowhub.com/pricing. If you approach your cap, we will make notification so you can remove unneeded items or so you can choose to upgrade your plan. We will not silently delete Customer Content for exceeding a soft cap; we may, on notice, limit new uploads until you upgrade your plan or reduce usage.
5.2 Acceptable content sizes. We may set reasonable per-file and per-image limits and may resize uploaded images to web-display versions to maintain performance.
6. Cancellation, Refunds, and Data Retention
6.1 Cancellation. You may cancel at any time from your account. Cancellation stops future renewals; your Plan remains active through the end of the period you have already paid for.
6.2 No refunds. Except where required by law, fees already paid are non-refundable, and we do not provide partial or pro-rated refunds for monthly or annual periods, including Charter annual plans.
6.3 Data retention after lapse. After a paid period ends without renewal, we retain your Customer Content for 30 days after non-payment on a monthly plan, and for 45 days after the renewal payment was due on an annual plan, during which you may reactivate or export your data. After that window, we may permanently delete your Customer Content. Export tools (CSV / Excel) are available while your account is active; we recommend exporting before cancelling.
7. Customer Content and Intellectual Property
7.1 Your ownership. As between you and us, you and your Vendor Artists retain all ownership of Customer Content. We claim no ownership of Artwork, bios, images, or other Customer Content.
7.2 License to us. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, adapt (for formatting and display), publicly display, and transmit Customer Content solely as needed to provide and improve the Service and to display your Shows as you direct.
7.3 Your representations. You represent that you have all rights, licenses, and permissions necessary to submit Customer Content and to authorize its display, including rights to each Vendor Artist’s images and to any personal information you upload, and that Customer Content does not infringe or violate any third party’s rights.
7.4 Our intellectual property. We own the Service and all related software, designs, and trademarks. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, resell, or create derivative works of the Service.
7.5 Feedback. If you give us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without restriction or obligation to you.
8. Artwork Sales; No Commission; We Do Not Handle Payments
8.1 We take no commission. Art Show Hub displays Artwork but does not process, facilitate, or take any commission or percentage of any sale of Artwork. We never touch the proceeds of Artwork sales.
8.2 Sales occur outside the Service. Any purchase of Artwork by a collector occurs through your own systems and payment arrangements. We are not a party to, and are not responsible for, any transaction between you, your artists, and collectors, including pricing, fulfillment, shipping, taxes, refunds, chargebacks, or disputes.
8.3 Your artist arrangements. Any commission or consignment arrangement between you and your artists is solely between you and them. This Agreement does not alter those arrangements.
9. Acceptable Use
9.1 You will not, and will not permit any user to: (a) upload unlawful, infringing, defamatory, or harmful content; (b) upload malware or attempt to disrupt or gain unauthorized access to the Service; (c) use the Service to send spam or violate privacy or publicity rights; (d) scrape, resell, or provide the Service to third parties except to display your own Shows; or (e) use the Service in violation of applicable law.
9.2 We may remove content or suspend accounts that we reasonably believe violate this Section, with notice where practicable.
10. Third-Party Services and Websites
10.1 The Service may rely on or integrate with third-party services (for example, website platforms such as WordPress, hosting and storage providers, and our subscription payment processor). Your use of those services is governed by their own terms. We are not responsible for third-party services or for the website into which you embed your Shows.
11. Availability and Support
11.1 We will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Service available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation except as expressly stated in a written Enterprise service-level agreement, if any. Support is provided at the level associated with your Plan.
11.2 We may perform maintenance and will use reasonable efforts to schedule significant planned downtime outside peak hours.
12. Warranties and Disclaimers
12.1 Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, the Service is provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” and we disclaim all other warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements or that it will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.
13. Limitation of Liability
13.1 To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither party will be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to this Agreement, even if advised of the possibility.
13.2 Except for your payment obligations and your indemnification obligations, each party’s total aggregate liability arising out of or related to this Agreement will not exceed the fees you paid to us for the Service in the [12] months before the event giving rise to the claim.
14. Indemnification
14.1 You will defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from any third-party claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of (a) your Customer Content; (b) your or your users’ use of the Service; (c) your artist or collector arrangements and any Artwork sale; or (d) your breach of this Agreement or violation of law.
15. Confidentiality
15.1 Each party will protect the other’s non-public business information disclosed in connection with the Service and use it only as needed to perform under this Agreement. This does not apply to information that is public, independently developed, or rightfully received from a third party.
16. Term, Suspension, and Termination
16.1 Term. This Agreement remains in effect while you have an active account or Subscription Term.
16.2 Suspension. We may suspend the Service for non-payment, a security risk, or a material breach of Section 9, with notice where practicable.
16.3 Termination for breach. Either party may terminate if the other materially breaches and fails to cure within [30] days of written notice. On termination, your right to use the Service ends, and Section 6.3 governs data retention.
16.4 Survival. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 6.2, 7, 8, 12–15, and 17–20) survive termination.
17. Changes to the Service and to this Agreement
17.1 We may update the Service and this Agreement from time to time. For material changes to this Agreement, we will provide notice (for example, by email or in-product) before they take effect. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, your remedy is to stop using the Service and cancel.
18. Privacy and Data Protection
18.1 Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy at https://artshowhub.com/privacy, which is incorporated by reference.
18.2 You are responsible for providing any notices to, and obtaining any consents from, your artists and collectors required for you to upload their information and display it through the Service, and for complying with applicable privacy laws (which may include Colorado, U.S., and international requirements) with respect to Customer Content.
19. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
19.1 Governing law. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
19.2 Disputes. Disputes will be resolved by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association.
20. General

20.2 Assignment. You may not assign this Agreement without our consent; we may assign it in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
20.3 Severability and waiver. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. A failure to enforce is not a waiver.
20.4 Force majeure. Neither party is liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond its reasonable control.
