CONDITIONS OF TRADE

Definitions

The Seller is the user offering an artwork for sale through Artland.

The Purchaser is the user buying an artwork through Artland.

The Artwork is the object of the agreement between the Purchaser and the Seller.

The Agreement is the arrangement, in which the Seller enters into an agreement with the Purchaser according to the purchase of the Artwork.

Artland’s position and responsibility

Artland merely holds the position of an intermediary between the Seller and the Purchaser whereas Artland through the app has provided the facilities for the Seller and the Purchaser in order for them to enter into an independent agreement.

Therefore, Artland solely has the part of a facilitator of the Agreement and may not be held liable for neither the Seller nor the Purchaser.

Entering into an agreement

The Agreement is considered a legally binding contract when the Purchaser at his request to make an offer, has accepted an offer from the Seller. The Seller’s request to make an offer is filed through Artland by establishing an advertisement at Artland. The advertisement must include a proper description of the Artwork including descriptions and photos as well as a quote of the minimum asking price of the Artwork.

In the event of more than one offer, that meets the minimum asking price quoted by the Seller, the Seller is free to choose between the offers. When the Purchaser has received notice that the Seller has accepted the offer from the Purchaser, a legally binding contract has been established between the parties.

When the Seller’s acceptance has been received by the Purchaser, the Purchaser is legally bound.

The Seller have the option to declare an Artwork eligible for offer without setting a minimum asking price meaning that the possible purchasers may submit an offer to the Seller. In this case the Seller is given the freedom to accept any offer as well as reject all offers.

The Seller as well as the Purchaser is anonymous to each other throughout the complete process. Both identities are, however, known by Artland.

Should the Agreement give reason for disputes between the parties, Artland is permitted to assign the identity of the Seller and the Purchaser, respectively, to the other party so that this party has the possibility to manage his legal position in relation to the conflicting party.

Transport

Artland arranges for the transport of the Artwork, including pick up of the Artwork at the Seller’s premises and delivering the Artwork at the Purchaser’s premises.

Unless otherwise specified Artland bears the costs of the transport and insurance of the Artwork during the transport.

Regarding some Artworks a fee for transportation will be charged by Artland. In such case the transportation charge will be shown in the description of the Artwork. If an Artwork is subject to a transportation fee the fee will be charged to the Purchaser.

The purchase price

The purchase price is the price of the Artwork agreed between the Seller and the Purchaser, meaning the offer from the Purchaser which the Seller has accepted.

Within three days after receiving the Purchaser’s acceptance, the Purchaser deposits the agreed purchase price in the account specified by Artland. In addition to the purchase price the Purchaser is to deposit an additional amount corresponding to 10 percent of the purchase price, which constitutes the Purchaser’s part of Artland’s commission.

When the Purchaser has received the Artwork and has confirmed the receiving as well as the Artwork to Artland, Artland transfers the purchase price with a deduction of 10 percent to the Seller.

Artland’s commission

Artland’s commission consists of two parts.

The Purchaser pays the first part of the commission, as the Purchaser pays 10 percent of the Purchase price in commission. This part is paid in conjunction with the purchase price, as the Purchaser pays the agreed purchase price to Artland with an additional amount equal to 10 percent of the purchase price.

The Seller pays the other part of the commission, as the Seller’s part of the commission to Artland also constitutes 10 percent of the purchase price. In connection with Artland’s settling of the purchase price to the Seller, Artland deducts 10 percent of the purchase price, whereupon the remaining 90 percent is paid to the Seller.

Change of risk

The risk of accidental demise of or damage to the Artwork is transferred from the Seller to the Purchaser at the time of Artland’s or the of Artland engaged conveyer’s retrieving of the Artwork at the Seller’s premises.

Artland is responsible for proper transport insurance covering the period from retrieving the Artwork at the Seller’s premises until delivering the Artwork at the Purchaser’s premises.

Objection to deficiency

Artland may not be held liable for any deficiencies in the Artwork, considering this is to be settled between the Seller and the Purchaser.

The Purchaser is obliged to make a complete inspection of the Artwork immediately after receiving it. Any objections against the condition or authenticity of the Artwork, or any other circumstances in connection with the transaction shall at the latest be reported to Artland five days after receiving the Artwork, as any objections after this point is considered as lapsed, as Artland at this point is permitted to transfer the purchase price to the Seller.

Any objections must be sent by e-mail to info@magazine.artland.com.

If objections are made in accordance with the conditions stipulated above, Artland is committed to refund the purchase price on condition of contemporary return of the Artwork. Artland is in this case permitted to retain the received 10 percent in commission from the Purchaser to cover the costs inflicted on Artland in connection to the transaction.

Governing law and venue

Artland cannot be made part of a dispute between the Seller and the Purchaser. However, if the Seller or the Purchaser for any reason decides to bring a claim against Artland, the parties agree that the venue for such a claim is the district court of Aalborg, Denmark. Danish legislation applies in such proceedings.
