All sizes quotes are nominal and Studio One Frames shall accept no liability for minor variations in size as a result of inadequate preparation of files. All orders are finished by hand and because of this we allow a tolerance of 2mm in each direction.

• Racist material
• Material that is likely to incite hatred against any person or group
• Defamatory or otherwise actionable material
• Material that is libelous in nature
• Material that is deemed to be pornographic
• Images of any criminal act

Whilst users images are stored after printing we accept no liability for their loss and as such you are advised to maintain suitable back-ups of all materials and files.
We maintain all printing equipment at optimum specifications and while every effort will be made, exact colour matching cannot be guaranteed. Due to the imprecise nature of colour management some colours may not accurately reproduce. Additionally discrepancies may arise when your finished product is viewed outside of the controlled environment of our studios.
In this instance we cannot be held responsible for differences in tone, contrast, or any other aspect of an image supplied which differs from its appearance on screen. The colour management process is designed to minimize and not eliminate tolerances in the reproduction of colour prints.
It is strongly recommended that customers request a proof before proceeding to print, without which reproduction will be at our discretion. If you have placed an order without using our proofing service your image will be printed as it has been received and should you be dissatisfied with any matters relating to colour management you will still be held liable for payment in full.
Studio One Frames offers a proofing service but does so with the user's acceptance that colour matching and the preparation of files is subjective, and that totally accurate colour matching to 100% fidelity is rarely possible. We will endeavor to achieve the closest possible match within the limitations and constraints of available technologies, materials, and processes used.
When supplying a proof we will wait to receive acceptance of your satisfaction of the print provided. Once you have confirmed you are happy with this and we have proceeded to print no further changes can be made and you will be held liable for payment in full.
While all care will be taken when handling supplied artworks, works are submitted at your own risk. Studio One Frames accepts no liability for the replacement or consequential loss arising from the damage or loss of supplied artwork. Owing to courier restrictions we are unable to request extended liability when sending original artwork through the postal network and as such it is the sole responsibility of the users to provide independent insurance cover for possible loss or damages incurred in delivery if they wish to do so.
Payment for your order will still be due in full and no monetary compensation will be offered should we fail to meet a quoted delivery time. Studio One Frames reserves the right to amend our lead times during seasonal periods without prior notice.

It is your responsibility to ensure that all balance payments are made and failure to do so may delay delivery of your order and prevent further orders from being accepted.
