The following Terms of Use govern all of our websites directed to users or purchasers located within the United States of America (including but not limited to https://www.stanleystella.com/en-us and all pages within it) (each and collectively, "the Site"), and all related or affiliated mobile sites, and applications owned or operated by STANLEY/STELLA, and including any of our content, programs, services, features, activities, and our current or future products) (collectively, the "Services").  

Your privacy is important to us. We encourage you to read our Privacy Policy to understand our privacy practices, so that you understand the actions we take with respect to your personal information and may make an informed decision about using the Services. Please note that our Privacy Policy is intended to govern any and all matters related to the collection and processing of your personal information (as defined under the Privacy Policy) by STANLEY/STELLA, whereas these Terms of Use apply to all aspects of your relationship with STANLEY/STELLA that do not fall within the scope of our Privacy Policy. You represent and warrant that all data that you provide to STANLEY/STELLA is accurate.

We reserve the right to change these Terms of Use at any time at our sole discretion by posting revisions to the Site. Such revisions will be effective immediately upon posting them to the Site. You should review these Terms of Use each time you use the Services, so that you understand your rights, remedies, and obligations. Your use of the Services after such changes have been posted shall constitute your acceptance of the revised Terms of Use.

The Services are not directed to persons under age 13 in the United States, or the equivalent age in other jurisdictions (such as 16 in the European Union). Users must be at least this age to access, use, or register for the Services. For more information regarding the collection and processing of personal information for users under this age, please visit our Privacy Policy.

If you are at least this age but under 18 years of age, you may only access, use, or register for the Services, with the consent of a parent or guardian.

STANLEY/STELLA will not be liable for any damages that may result from misrepresentation of age by a user of the Services. We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit content, or cancel orders at our sole discretion. We do not ship orders to freight forwarders.

In order to provide you with the Services, including to conduct our business and to provide you with the best possible products and services, we may need to provide you with certain communications. By using the Services, and subject to the provisions of our Privacy Policy, you consent to receive any and all such communications. We will communicate with you electronically, including but not limited to e-mail or sending you notices through the Site. These communications are considered part of the Services, which you may not be able to opt-out from receiving.

The Products offered for sale to our wholesale customers (as used herein, a “Dealer”) on our eCommerce webshop (the “Webshop”) are sold via the digital platform processes.  As a result, the Dealer agrees to STANLEY/STELLA communicating with such party electronically.  STANLEY/STELLA is authorized to send the Dealer electronic messages and other notifications about his order through the internet. To the extent permitted by the law, the Dealer agrees that the above replaces any legislation imposing other methods or timings for receiving notifications relating to his order. STANLEY/STELLA is authorized to send messages through other methods (e.g. by regular mail) and also to receive notifications in writing if this method is expressly specified by the parties, by way of derogation from the Terms and Conditions. To the extent permitted by the law, the Dealer undertakes, in the event of a dispute, not to dispute the validity of any order, information, notification or message sent electronically between the parties in connection with the Terms and Conditions and the contracts to which they apply.  

You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, or other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

We welcome your comments and feedback.  All communications and comments submitted to us using the Services are non-confidential.  We reserve the right to use any ideas, concepts, comments, techniques, visuals, or suggestions contained in any such communication or comment. We retain rights to all comments, feedback, suggestions and submissions to us using the Services.

All text, designs, graphics, logos, page headers, button icons, scripts, service names, manuals, technical documentation, product information, user interfaces, visual interfaces, images, photographs, trademarks, sounds, music, and artwork (collectively, "Content"), including but not limited to the design, structure, selection, coordination, expression, "look and feel," and arrangement thereof, appearing via the Services are owned, controlled or licensed by or to STANLEY/STELLA, and are protected by trade dress, copyright, patent and trademark laws, and various other intellectual property rights and unfair competition laws.

The Content may not be used in connection with any product or service that is not STANLEY/STELLA's, in any manner that is likely to cause confusion among customers, or in any manner that disparages or discredits STANLEY/STELLA.  All other trademarks not owned by STANLEY/STELLA that via the Services are the property of their respective owners, who may or may not be affiliated with, connected to, or sponsored by STANLEY/STELLA. Nothing appearing via the Services should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any trademark displayed via the Services, without the prior written permission of the trademark owner. We aggressively enforce our intellectual property rights to the fullest extent of the law.

You are hereby granted only a limited, non-sublicensable right to access the Services to print the Content for your personal, non-commercial, and informational use only. The foregoing license grant does NOT include the right for you to: (i) publish, publicly perform or display, or distribute to any third party any Content, including reproduction on any computer network, or broadcast or other media; (ii) market, sell, or make commercial use of the Services or any Content therein; (iii) systematically collect or use any Content or data from the Services, including but not limited to use of data spiders, robots, or comparable data gathering, mining or extraction methods; (iv) make derivative use of the Services or any Content therein; or (v) use, frame, or utilize framing techniques to enclose any portion of the Services (including the images, text, or layout/design appearing within the Services).

Any unauthorized use of the Services or the Content therein terminates any permission or license that we granted you, and may violate applicable laws including copyright laws, trademark laws (including trade dress), and communications statutes and regulations. You are granted a limited, revocable, and nonexclusive right to create a hyperlink to the Services, so long as the link does not portray STANLEY/STELLA, or its products or services, in a false, misleading, derogatory, or otherwise offensive manner. You may not use any STANLEY/STELLA logo or other proprietary graphic or trademark as part of the link without express written permission.

The names and logos of and used by STANLEY/STELLA are protected by applicable trademark and copyright laws.  Any use by a Dealer of the STANLEY/STELLA intellectual property as expressly permitted by STANLEY/STELLA needs to follow STANLEY/STELLA’s Graphic Identity Guide. In case of doubt, Dealers are directed to contact their designated Sales Account representative. 

A Dealer may not use or register the name STANLEY/STELLA as a component of any domain name (e.g., www.cheapstanleystella.com or www.stanleystellabrussels.be, which is at all times prohibited).   

STANLEY/STELLA designs, develops and/or updates its marketing materials (collectively, the “Marketing Material”) from time to time. The Dealers are responsible to use only the most recent Marketing Material and to replace any old Marketing Material they use in due course with the most recent Marketing Material.  Any authorization granted by STANLEY/STELLA to use Marketing Material in connection with the Products of STANLEY/STELLA is limited in time per collection and/or season or otherwise expressly determined by STANLEY/STELLA.   

The Marketing Material is and remains the exclusive Intellectual Property of STANLEY/STELLA.  The Dealers are only granted a limited non-exclusive authorization to use and/or publish the Marketing Material of STANLEY/STELLA. This authorization is revocable at any time by STANLEY/STELLA. 

The Dealers who use the products of STANLEY/STELLA under their own name, may only use the ‘pack shots’, i.e. textile photos without the head of the model, from the Marketing Material.

If a Dealer wishes to edit the Marketing Material, he needs the express and written consent from STANLEY/STELLA.  If consent is so granted, Dealers are only authorized to edit the textile part of the pack shot (e.g. with an illustration or words/signs) if such edits do not violate public order and morality, any law or regulation or any rights of third parties and/or STANLEY/STELLA.   

Any Dealer who is authorized to sell products under the name “STANLEY/STELLA”, can only use the Marketing Material in its original format and in accordance with the instructions provided on a case-by-case. The Marketing Material cannot be in any way altered, re-colored, photoshopped or adapted to any communication requirement or method, whether in print, video or digital media.  

The Dealer may not use Marketing Material of STANLEY/STELLA in combination with products and/or marketing material from a third party.  

The authorization by STANLEY/STELLA to the Dealer is strictly limited to use by the Dealer on the captive website, webshop and social media directly owned by such Dealer (and for example not for third party websites as Amazon or by any purchaser of the Dealer). The Marketing Material may not, without prior written authorization, be sublicensed or used on websites of any third parties or for a third-party advertising campaign.

All terms of sale are subject to revision and amendment by STANLEY/STELLA at any time.  The current Terms of Sale and trade are as set forth in our Terms of Sale policies which are deemed binding on any Dealer, and include an arbitration provision waiving the right to a trial by jury.
