The rules for using LAOUTS.

Effective Date: July 1, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of LAOUTS, including the website at laouts.com, the LAOUTS Studio editor, the LAOUTS iOS apps, and any related services (collectively, the "Service").

These Terms incorporate, by reference, the following policies, which form part of your agreement with us: the Privacy Policy (laouts.com/privacy), the Refund / Print Policy (laouts.com/refunds), the Copyright Policy (laouts.com/copyright), and the Intellectual Property, User Content & AI Content Policy (laouts.com/content-ip), which sets out detailed terms for uploads, AI-assisted features, library assets, and commercial/resale rights. These Terms are the master agreement; where a more specific policy addresses a topic in more detail, that policy applies to that topic. If there is a direct conflict, these Terms control unless the more specific policy expressly states otherwise.

LAOUTS is operated by 4488652 Canada Inc. ("LAOUTS," "we," "us," "our"), a corporation incorporated in Québec, Canada, with registered office at 433 rue Saint-Claude, Montréal, Québec, H2Y 3B6.

By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service.

1 · The Service

LAOUTS lets you:

• Upload your own photos
• Use our software to organize and design a photo book, calendar, framed print, greeting card, mug, or similar physical product
• Place an order to have those products printed and shipped to you
• Optionally use our iOS Phone Cull tool to organize your camera roll

We may add, change, or remove features at any time.

2 · Who Can Use LAOUTS

You may use the Service if:

• You are at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction if higher
• You have the legal capacity to enter a contract in your jurisdiction
• You are not prohibited from using the Service under applicable law

LAOUTS is not intended for children. We do not knowingly accept registrations or orders from anyone under 18. Because users may upload photos that include children, you are responsible for having the rights and any parental/guardian consent for those images.

3 · Accounts

You can use much of LAOUTS without creating an account. When you place an order, we record your email address and shipping details to fulfill the order.

If you create an account:

• You are responsible for keeping your account information accurate
• You are responsible for activity that happens through your account
• You agree to notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access

You can delete your account at any time (see Privacy Policy, Section 10).

4 · Your Content

4.1 You Keep Ownership

You own the photos you upload and the photo books you create. We never claim copyright over your content.

4.2 License to Us (Service Operation Only)

By uploading content, you grant LAOUTS a limited, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, process, transmit, and display your content solely to operate the Service. This license:

• Exists only for as long as we need it to provide the Service (delivering your order, supporting your account)
• Ends when you delete your content or your account
• Does NOT permit us to sell your content, share it with advertisers, train AI models on it, or use it for marketing without separate written permission

4.3 You Are Responsible for Your Content

You confirm that:

• You own the photos you upload OR have permission from the rights holder
• Your content does not violate any law, copyright, trademark, privacy right, or publicity right
• Your content does not contain anything illegal, abusive, harassing, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable (see Section 5)

If we receive a credible copyright complaint about your content, we may remove it and notify you.

4.4 User-Uploaded Backgrounds and Stickers

You may upload your own images for use as page backgrounds or stickers in the editor. By uploading, you confirm that:

• You own the content or have a valid license to use it in your project
• The content does not infringe copyright, trademark, or other third-party rights
• The content is not illegal, abusive, harassing, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable

LAOUTS does not pre-screen uploads. We may remove content that violates these Terms. Free previews and unpaid uploads are for personal use only. Paid AI generations, digital downloads, and utility purchases may include commercial-use rights as described at checkout.

Low-resolution warnings at upload time are advisory; you are responsible for supplying images suitable for your intended use (screen vs print).

4.5 We Don't Pre-Screen (Library Content)

LAOUTS does not pre-review user content. We rely on you to ensure your content is appropriate. We may remove content that violates these Terms after the fact.

5 · What You Can't Do

You agree not to use the Service to:

• Upload content that infringes copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights
• Upload content depicting minors in any sexual or exploitative manner
• Upload content that promotes violence, hatred, or harassment
• Upload someone else's photos without their permission
• Attempt to disrupt, hack, reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or interfere with the Service or attempt to discover its source code
• Copy, clone, or imitate the Service, its software, templates, design systems, or "look and feel," or use it to build, train, or improve a competing product, template/asset/prompt library, or service
• Remove, alter, or circumvent any proprietary notice, watermark, or technical/security/rights-management measure
• Use the Service to send spam or unsolicited communication
• Resell or commercialize LAOUTS-generated products without a separate commercial agreement
• Use automated tools (scrapers, bots, crawlers) to access, extract, or copy the Service or its assets except as expressly permitted
• Violate any applicable law

Repeated or serious violations result in account termination and possible legal action.

6 · Purchases, Pricing, and Payments

6.1 Pricing

All prices are shown at checkout in your selected currency. Prices do not include applicable taxes or shipping unless otherwise stated. We may change prices at any time, but changes do not affect orders already placed.

6.2 Payment

Payment is processed by Stripe. By placing an order, you authorize the charge to your selected payment method. We never see or store your full credit card number.

Apple In-App Purchases (iOS app digital products): payment is processed by Apple, governed by the App Store Terms of Service.

6.3 Order Confirmation

Placing an order constitutes an offer to purchase. Your order is confirmed when we send an order confirmation email. We reserve the right to cancel an order before fulfillment for any reason (with full refund).

6.4 Printing and Shipping

Printed products are produced and shipped by our print partner, Prodigi, from the fulfillment center nearest to your shipping address. Production and shipping times are estimates, not guarantees.

You are responsible for providing an accurate shipping address. Orders returned due to incorrect addresses may incur a reshipment fee.

6.5 Risk of Loss

Title and risk of loss transfer to you when the carrier accepts the package. We are not liable for loss or damage after that point, but we will help you file a claim with the carrier.

7 · Refund and Return Policy

Because every photo book is custom-printed from your unique content, we cannot offer refunds for buyer's remorse (e.g., "I changed my mind," "It doesn't look as good as I expected").

We will refund or reprint at no charge if:

• The product arrived damaged in shipping
• There is a printing defect (color, alignment, binding)
• We made an error fulfilling your order (wrong product, wrong size)
• The product is materially different from what you previewed in the editor

To request a refund or replacement, email hello@laouts.com within 30 days of delivery with photos of the issue. We aim to resolve all claims within 7 business days.

Digital products (Creative Suite packs, Phone Cull purchase) are non-refundable once delivered, except where required by law.

8 · Intellectual Property

8.1 Our IP

LAOUTS, the LAOUTS logo, the L-mark emblem, the LAOUTS Studio editor, our software (source and object code), our website code, our "look and feel," our brand assets, our typography selections, our layout engine, our templates, design systems, style systems, prompts, workflows, and all other content we create are owned by 4488652 Canada Inc. and protected by copyright, trademark, trade-secret, and other laws. The selection, coordination, and arrangement of the templates, layouts, and tools in the Service are themselves protected, independent of the individual elements.

Except as expressly permitted by these Terms, by applicable law that cannot be waived by contract, or by separate written agreement, you may not (and may not enable any third party to): copy, modify, adapt, or create derivative works of any part of the Service; reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, algorithms, prompts, or underlying ideas of the Service; sell, rent, lease, sublicense, distribute, assign, or transfer any part of the Service; scrape, crawl, or use bots or automated means to access or copy the Service or its assets; remove, alter, or circumvent any proprietary notice, watermark, or technical/security/rights-management measure; or use the Service, its assets, or its "look and feel" to build, train, or improve a competing product, template/asset/prompt library, or service. These restrictions survive termination. A breach may cause LAOUTS irreparable harm for which monetary damages are inadequate, and LAOUTS may seek injunctive relief in addition to any other remedy. Detailed asset, AI-output, and commercial-use terms are in the Intellectual Property, User Content & AI Content Policy at laouts.com/content-ip.

8.2 License to Use the Service

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use the Service for your personal purposes (and, where your plan expressly allows, to create and sell permitted Finished End Products). This license includes no right to resell or commercialize the Service itself, and no rights other than those expressly granted — all other rights are reserved.

8.3 Feedback

If you send us suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, royalty-free license to use that feedback to improve LAOUTS. We are not obligated to credit you or compensate you for it.

9 · Third-Party Services

The Service may link to or integrate with third-party services (e.g., Stripe, Prodigi, Apple App Store). We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of those third parties. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

10 · Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not warrant that:

• The Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure
• Printed products will exactly match what you see on your screen (color variation between screens and print is normal)
• The Service will meet your specific requirements
• Defects will be corrected

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

11 · Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

LAOUTS, 4488652 Canada Inc., our directors, employees, and agents are not liable for:

• Indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages
• Loss of data, lost profits, lost revenue, loss of goodwill, or business interruption
• Damages arising from your use of the Service

Our maximum aggregate liability for any claim arising from your use of the Service is the greater of:

• The amount you paid to LAOUTS in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, OR
• One hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100)

Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

12 · Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless 4488652 Canada Inc., LAOUTS, and our affiliates from any claims, damages, costs, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:

• Your content (including any copyright, trademark, privacy, or publicity claims)
• Your use of the Service
• Your violation of these Terms
• Your violation of any law or third-party right

13 · Termination

You can stop using the Service at any time.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service if:

• You violate these Terms
• We are required to by law
• Continued service would expose us to legal liability
• We discontinue the Service

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (Sections 4.2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 12, 14-18) will survive.

14 · Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms as the Service evolves. Material changes will be communicated by:

• Email (if you have an account)
• Notice on laouts.com
• An updated "Last Updated" date above

Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Service.

15 · Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Québec, Canada, and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

16 · Dispute Resolution

If you have a dispute with us, please contact hello@laouts.com first. Most issues can be resolved informally within 30 days.

If we can't resolve it informally, disputes will be resolved in the courts of the Province of Québec, located in the Judicial District of Montréal, except that either party may bring a claim in small-claims court for amounts within that court's jurisdiction.

No arbitration requirement or class-action waiver applies to you under these Terms.

EU and UK consumers, and consumers elsewhere with mandatory local rights (including in Québec), retain all mandatory consumer protection rights under their local law, including the right to bring claims in their local courts.

17 · Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, the Refund / Print Policy, the Copyright Policy, the Intellectual Property, User Content & AI Content Policy, and any order confirmation, constitute the entire agreement between you and LAOUTS. They supersede any prior agreements.

If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, the rest remain in effect.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right.
