Where content is presented as scientific or academic research, its scope, methodology, references, publication status, and limitations should be evaluated according to the information accompanying that content.

Unless expressly stated, material published on the website has not necessarily been peer reviewed or endorsed by a university, professional council, government body, scientific journal, or other institution.

3. No professional advice

Website content is provided for general information, education, commentary, research development, and creative expression.

It is not a substitute for individualized:

  • medical or mental-health advice;

  • legal advice;

  • accounting or tax advice;

  • investment or financial advice;

  • professional engineering or technical advice;

  • emergency assistance.

You should consult an appropriately qualified professional before acting on information that may materially affect your health, rights, finances, safety, business, or legal obligations.

4. Eligibility

You must have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

If you are under the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, you may use purchasing, subscription, donation, or account features only with the permission and involvement of a parent or legal guardian.

The website is not directed to children under 13.

5. Accounts and security

Some website features may require an account.

You agree to:

  • provide accurate and current information;

  • maintain the confidentiality of your login credentials;

  • use only accounts you are authorized to use;

  • promptly notify us of suspected unauthorized access;

  • accept responsibility for activity conducted through your account, to the extent permitted by law.

You may not sell, transfer, share, or provide unauthorized access to a member account or paid-content account.

We may suspend or restrict an account when reasonably necessary to investigate fraud, abuse, security issues, payment disputes, or violations of these Terms.

6. Intellectual property

Unless expressly stated otherwise, the website and its original content are owned by or licensed to 2&1, 2and1x, Matheus Andrade Ribeiro, or the identified author or rights holder.

Protected material may include:

  • names and branding;

  • text and articles;

  • paintings and digital artwork;

Copyright, trademark, moral rights, and other intellectual-property rights remain with their respective owners.

7. Limited permission to use the website

We grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, and non-transferable permission to access the website for lawful personal use.

Unless you receive written permission or an express license, you may not:

  • copy or republish substantial website content;

  • reproduce, distribute, sell, or sublicense artwork, music, books, or files;

  • remove copyright, author, trademark, or attribution notices;

  • use website content to train or develop a commercial artificial-intelligence system;

  • scrape or systematically extract content, except for ordinary search-engine indexing permitted by our technical settings;

  • use images, audio, writing, or branding in advertising without written authorization.

Brief quotations may be used where permitted by applicable copyright law, provided that the quotation is accurate, limited, properly attributed, and accompanied by a reference to the original page.

8. Licenses for purchased digital products

Purchasing a digital product does not transfer ownership of its copyright or other intellectual-property rights.

Unless a separate license states otherwise, a purchase grants you a limited license for personal, non-commercial use.

You may not:

  • resell the digital product;

  • distribute copies;

  • publish the complete product online;

  • share download links;

  • use the product as your own commercial content;

  • remove ownership or copyright information;

  • convert a personal license into a commercial license without permission.

Music, artwork, books, samples, beats, stems, recordings, prints, or other materials may be subject to additional product-specific license terms.

Where product-specific terms conflict with these general Terms, the more specific written license controls for that product.

9. User communications and submissions

You retain ownership of original content that you send to us.

When you voluntarily submit a message, review, testimonial, proposal, image, text, or other material for publication, you represent that:

  • you have the right to submit it;

  • it does not infringe another person’s rights;

  • it is not unlawful, fraudulent, threatening, or malicious;

  • it does not contain unauthorized confidential information;

  • it does not contain malware or harmful code.

If you authorize publication, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to display, reproduce, format, and distribute the submitted material for the purpose for which it was provided.

Private correspondence will not be treated as permission for public publication unless authorization is express or publication is otherwise permitted by law.

10. Prohibited conduct

You may not use the website to:

  • violate applicable law;

  • infringe intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or contractual rights;

  • impersonate another person or organization;

  • submit false or misleading information;

  • conduct payment fraud or chargeback abuse;

  • distribute malware or malicious code;

  • attempt unauthorized access;

  • interfere with website security or availability;

  • bypass account, payment, membership, or access controls;

  • overwhelm the website through automated requests;

  • harvest personal information;

  • send spam or unsolicited commercial messages;

  • manipulate advertising impressions or clicks;

  • use bots to create fraudulent traffic;

  • misuse contact forms;

  • threaten, harass, defame, or unlawfully target another person;

  • encourage unlawful activity.

Security testing is permitted only with prior written authorization.

11. Products, pricing, and availability

We attempt to present products, services, subscriptions, and artwork accurately. However:

  • images may appear differently depending on the screen;

  • handmade or physical artwork may contain natural variations;

  • availability may change;

  • typographical or technical errors may occur;

  • prices may change before an order is completed.

An order confirmation does not necessarily mean that an order has been finally accepted. We may cancel or refund an order when reasonably necessary because of:

  • product unavailability;

  • an obvious pricing error;

  • suspected fraud;

  • payment failure;

  • legal restrictions;

  • inability to complete delivery;

  • a material error in the listing.

Any cancellation will be handled subject to applicable consumer law.

12. Payments

Payments may be processed by Stripe or another payment provider displayed during checkout.

You agree to provide accurate payment and billing information and authorize the applicable provider to process the transaction.

Payment providers operate under their own contractual and privacy terms. We are not responsible for an independent payment provider’s internal systems, except where liability cannot legally be excluded.

Prices may be displayed in different currencies. Your bank, card issuer, wallet provider, or payment service may impose:

  • currency-conversion charges;

  • processing charges;

  • international transaction fees;

  • blockchain or network fees;

  • taxes.

13. Subscriptions

Some services may be offered as recurring subscriptions.

Before subscribing, review:

  • the price;

  • billing frequency;

  • included benefits;

  • renewal terms;

  • cancellation method;

  • any trial conditions.

Unless otherwise stated, recurring subscriptions continue until canceled.

Cancellation normally prevents future renewal but does not automatically refund a billing period that has already begun, except where a refund is required by law or expressly offered.

Access to subscription content may end when the paid period expires.

We may modify subscription prices or benefits with reasonable advance notice where required. A material modification will apply according to the notice provided and applicable law.

14. Digital delivery

Digital products may be delivered through:

  • a download link;

  • email;

  • a member account;

  • a streaming or hosting platform;

  • another electronic delivery method.

You are responsible for:

  • using a compatible device;

  • maintaining a valid email address;

  • preserving lawful backup copies;

  • downloading files within any disclosed availability period.

Nothing in these Terms removes any mandatory consumer right relating to defective, inaccessible, or incorrectly supplied digital content.

15. Physical products and artwork

Terms for physical products or original artwork may include:

  • production or preparation time;

  • shipping charges;

  • insurance;

  • customs duties;

  • import taxes;

  • delivery estimates;

  • packaging;

  • signature requirements;

  • return conditions.

Delivery dates are estimates unless expressly guaranteed.

The customer is responsible for providing an accurate delivery address. International customers may be responsible for customs duties, import taxes, and local processing charges.

Commissioned or personalized work may be governed by a separate written agreement covering scope, revisions, payment stages, delivery, ownership, publication, and licensing.

16. Refunds, cancellations, and consumer rights

Refund and cancellation conditions may be presented:

  • on the relevant product page;

  • during checkout;

  • in a separate refund policy;

  • in a subscription description;

  • in an individual contract.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits rights that cannot lawfully be waived under the Brazilian Consumer Defense Code or other applicable consumer-protection laws.

Where applicable law provides a cancellation, withdrawal, refund, repair, replacement, or re-performance right, that mandatory right remains available.

Refund requests may be sent to:

[email protected]

Include the order information and a clear explanation of the request.

17. Donations and voluntary support

Donations, tips, and voluntary contributions support the continuation of the website and its artistic, musical, literary, research, and editorial work.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, a donation:

  • is voluntary;

  • is not an investment;

  • does not purchase ownership in the website;

  • does not create a partnership;

  • does not create voting or management rights;

  • does not guarantee a product, publication, result, or financial return.

Donations are generally not refundable after they have been processed, except where required by law, processed in error, duplicated, or expressly agreed otherwise.

Do not donate unless you are authorized to use the selected payment method.

18. Cryptocurrency contributions

Cryptocurrency contributions are transmitted through third-party blockchain networks.

You acknowledge that:

  • blockchain transactions may be irreversible;

  • wallet addresses and transaction data may be public;

  • network fees may apply;

  • values may fluctuate significantly;

  • sending assets to the wrong address or network may result in permanent loss;

  • we cannot reverse or control a completed blockchain transaction;

  • tax consequences may vary by jurisdiction.

A cryptocurrency contribution does not create an investment, deposit, security, ownership interest, or expectation of profit.

19. Third-party services and links

The website may use or link to services operated by third parties, including:

  • Squarespace;

  • Cloudflare;

  • Google;

  • Stripe;

  • video and music platforms;

  • social-media platforms;

  • email services;

  • blockchain networks and wallet services;

  • external research, news, or reference websites.

Third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

A link, advertisement, embed, reference, or integration does not necessarily mean that we endorse, control, verify, or guarantee that third party.

You are responsible for evaluating third-party services before using them or providing information.

20. Advertising

The website may display advertisements supplied by third-party advertising providers, including Google.

Advertisements may be selected contextually or, where permitted and consented to, based on browsing activity or interests.

We do not guarantee the accuracy, legality, quality, safety, or availability of third-party advertisements, products, or services.

Any transaction with an advertiser is between you and that advertiser.

Users must not click advertisements artificially, repeatedly, through automated means, or for the purpose of generating invalid advertising revenue.

21. Accuracy and availability

We make reasonable efforts to maintain useful and accurate content, but we do not guarantee that:

  • every page is complete or current;

  • every statement is error-free;

  • every external source remains available;

  • every opinion will remain unchanged;

  • the website will be uninterrupted;

  • a specific product will remain available;

  • all historical pages will reflect current editorial standards.

Content may be corrected, updated, reorganized, archived, restricted, or deleted without prior notice.

Publication of an article does not prevent later correction or reconsideration.

22. Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, the website and its content are provided on an “as available” and “as is” basis.

We do not make warranties that go beyond those expressly stated or required by law.

We do not guarantee:

  • a particular artistic, educational, commercial, scientific, advertising, or financial outcome;

  • acceptance by a journal, platform, institution, advertiser, or search engine;

  • uninterrupted access;

  • compatibility with every device;

  • permanent availability of third-party platforms;

  • that all security threats can be prevented.

Mandatory statutory warranties and consumer rights remain unaffected.

23. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential loss arising solely from:

  • reliance on general website content;

  • third-party services;

  • unavailable external links;

  • user misconduct;

  • unauthorized account access caused by the user’s failure to protect credentials;

  • blockchain volatility or incorrectly directed blockchain transactions;

  • temporary service interruption;

  • circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where exclusion is prohibited, including liability arising from fraud, intentional misconduct, or mandatory consumer-protection obligations.

24. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for reasonably documented losses or claims arising from your unlawful use of the website, infringement of another person’s rights, fraud, malicious activity, or material violation of these Terms.

This section does not apply where liability results from our own unlawful conduct or where such an obligation is prohibited by consumer law.

25. Suspension and termination

We may restrict or terminate access when reasonably necessary because of:

  • a material violation of these Terms;

  • unlawful conduct;

  • fraud or payment abuse;

  • security risk;

  • unauthorized content distribution;

  • harassment or misuse of website systems;

  • a legal or regulatory requirement.

Where appropriate and legally required, we may provide notice and a reasonable opportunity to correct the violation.

Terms concerning intellectual property, completed payments, liability, disputes, and other provisions that logically survive termination will remain effective.

26. Changes to the website and these Terms

We may update the website, services, products, and these Terms.

The updated Terms will be posted with a revised “Last updated” date.

Changes will generally apply prospectively. When required by law, we will provide additional notice or request renewed agreement before a material change affects an existing paid service.

Continued use after an effective update constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.

27. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, without excluding mandatory protections available under the law of the user’s residence.

The parties should first attempt to resolve disputes in good faith through direct communication.

Where court proceedings are necessary, they may be brought before a legally competent court in Brazil. Consumers retain the right to use the forum of their domicile whenever applicable consumer law grants that right.

28. Severability

If a provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

29. No waiver

Failure to enforce a provision immediately does not waive the right to enforce it later.

30. Entire agreement

These Terms, the Privacy Policy, product-specific licenses, checkout disclosures, refund conditions, and any signed individual agreement constitute the applicable agreement between you and us concerning the relevant service.

A specific written agreement may supplement or replace part of these Terms for a commissioned artwork, music license, commercial license, research service, partnership, or custom project.
