Terms & Conditions

Version 1.0 · Effective September 10, 2026

1. Who you're buying from

Hey Bare Bear (QTM Commerce LLC, 30 N Gould St Ste N, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA) sells personalized printed wall calendars made from photos you provide. Contact: cs@heybarebear.com (business: contact@qtmcommerce.com). Nothing here limits consumer rights you cannot waive under US federal or state law.

2. What we sell

A personalized 2027 wall calendar: one cover, twelve monthly artworks, the 2027 US calendar pages (26 printed pages: cover, then a monthly image page followed by that month's calendar page, ×12, and a final page), spiral-bound with a centered hanging hole, in the size you choose at checkout (11" × 8.5" or 14" × 11.5"). Every calendar is made to order. The album/theme is the one you select; the individual scene ideas are ours and can't be customized one by one.

3. Who can order, and photos you can use

You must be 18 or older to order.
You confirm that your details are accurate and that you have the right to use every photo you upload.
Adults pictured: you must have the person's permission (for gifts, ideally check first).
Babies and children pictured: you may upload a photo of a child only if you are their parent or legal guardian, or have the parent/guardian's permission. You're responsible for that permission.
We never use your photos (including photos of children) for advertising or public promotion without separate, specific, written permission from the adult/parent. We never bundle that request into checkout.

4. Your photo and the permission you give us

You keep your rights in your photos. You give us a limited permission to copy, process, store, and share them only with our providers, only to create, check, print, deliver, support, and remake your order. We do not sell your photos as stand-alone images.

5. Photos that work well

Clear, sharp, well-lit, front-facing, face fully visible, good resolution. Low-resolution, filtered, obscured, or tightly cropped photos may not give a good result. This matters for baby photos too: sharp, face-forward, no pacifier/hands covering the face.

6. Suitability of your photo

We use the photo exactly as supplied. Sunglasses, hats, masks, side-on shots, group photos, and tiny or shadowed faces reduce recognizability. A weak result from an unsuitable photo is not on its own a reason for a refund. Your legal rights for defective, incomplete, materially different, or undelivered products are not affected.

7. Stylized, humorous artwork

The artwork is stylized, humorous, fictional illustration. It changes proportions, clothing, pose, setting, and occupation. It is not evidence of a real physique, job, or endorsement. We can't guarantee an exact likeness. Creative variation does not cover real defects (see Refunds & Quality, section 6).

8. Ordering, changing, cancelling

Artwork creation can start soon after payment. Tell us about mistakes right away; changes may be possible before artwork or printing starts, not after. Production starting does not remove your right to cancel or be refunded for an order we haven't shipped.

9. Double-check your details

Please check names, photos, size, quantity, email, and delivery address before you submit. We're not responsible for extra costs caused only by incorrect details you gave us.

10. Prices and payment

Prices are in US dollars; sales tax is shown at checkout where applicable. Payments are handled by third-party providers; we don't store full card numbers. An order is confirmed when payment is authorized.

11. Made to order, third-party providers

We use third-party image-generation, printing, and fulfillment providers, which may change. We remain your point of contact.

12. Digital files (if included)

Where a digital copy is included, you get a personal, non-exclusive license for private use (sharing with family and friends, personal social posts). No commercial use, resale, or merchandise. Links may expire.

13. Our intellectual property

We keep rights in our name, logos, templates, layouts, designs, site content, slogans, and product concepts. Buying a calendar does not transfer them. We make no claim about the copyright status of AI-generated artwork.

14. What you can't upload

Content you have no right to use; infringing or private material; unlawful or sexually explicit content (including any inappropriate image of a minor — we refuse these and may report them as required by law); impersonation; or content meant to harass, threaten, or exploit. We may refuse or cancel such orders (and refund unrelated cancellations). Report unauthorized use to cs@heybarebear.com with "unauthorized image" in the subject.

15. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy forms part of these terms.

16. Refunds and your rights

Personalized products generally aren't eligible for change-of-mind returns. Rights for defective, materially different, incomplete, or undelivered products remain (see Refunds & Quality).

17. Reviews and example images

We don't pay for, write, edit, hide, or reward reviews. Example calendars not made for a named customer are demonstrations, not testimonials.

18. Limits on our liability

To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for losses caused only by incorrect details you supplied, photos you had no right to use, misuse after delivery, an uncollected package, or events outside our reasonable control. Liability that cannot be excluded is not limited.

19. Your responsibility for uploads

You're responsible for claims arising from knowingly uploading a photo you had no right to use (including a child's photo without parent/guardian permission). This does not cover losses caused by our own unlawful conduct or negligence.

20. Events outside our control

Delays caused by events beyond reasonable control are excused. This doesn't affect your refund rights for unshipped orders.

21. Safety note

The calendar is spiral-bound with a centered hanging hole. Hang it out of reach of babies and young children, and keep it away from them; it is wall décor, not a toy.
