Artists mean everything to us. That’s why we created TAC. A way to manage, organize, forecast, connect, and sell your brand. We firmly believe that a management platform should be more than a few features that merely treat the symptoms of the user’s pain points; it should solve the user’s fundamental problems and empower the user to take control of their success. TAC is committed to providing a Home for Artists of all kinds to live and flourish in.

To achieve these goals, TAC provides a suite of services geared toward both Brands and individual users alike.

SECTION 4 - CREATING AN ACCOUNT

In order to use TAC, you, as the Customer, must have or must obtain access to the World Wide Web, either directly or through devices that access Web-based Content. Customer must also provide all equipment necessary to make (and maintain) such connection to the World Wide Web.

Once you create an account with us, you are registered on the TAC Site. The terms “member,” “membership,” and “account” all refer to this registration as a member on TAC’s Site. If you are merely surfing or browsing through the Site and have not yet created an account, your use of the Site is still subject to this Agreement; if you do not agree to this Agreement, do not use the Site. If you permit another person to utilize your account for any purpose, you remain liable for any actions such individual takes while utilizing the Site.

When you create an account, you will provide a unique email address and set up a Personal Profile. By creating an account, you agree to accept emails (or other Electronic Communications) from TAC at the e-mail address you specify. You further agree that TAC may provide any and all required notices including legal notices to Customer through either e-mail (or other electronic transmission) or by mail.

We will also ask you to create a password. Because any activities that occur under your email, username or password are your responsibility it is important for you to keep your username and/or password secure. You may not assign or otherwise transfer your personal account to any other person or entity. You acknowledge that TAC is not responsible for third party access to your account that results from theft or misappropriation of your account. Notify us immediately if you believe that someone has used your username, email, or password without your authorization.

You agree that you shall not use a fake identity or impersonate any individual(s), group(s), or organization(s) for any reason on the Site, irrespective of whether the purpose is to mislead, confuse, or deceive others. Any user who is found to have violated this policy will be subject to termination or suspension from TAC, as set forth in the Termination or Suspension Policy.

If you assign a username to your personal account that is different from your legal name, or one that represents your Brand or is included in your Brand Slug, be advised that such usernames are not monitored by TAC for uniqueness within TAC and therefore such username may be utilized by another Member. TAC does have prohibitions regarding certain types of prohibited language with respect to usernames. See our Account Usernames and Display Names Policy for more information.

Furthermore, the registering party hereby acknowledges, understands and agrees to:

furnish factual, correct, current and complete information with regards to yourself as may be requested by the data registration process, and
maintain and promptly update your registration and profile information in an effort to maintain accuracy and completeness at all times.

If anyone knowingly provides any information of a false, untrue, inaccurate or incomplete nature, The Artist Collective, LLC will have sufficient grounds and rights to suspend or terminate the member in violation of this aspect of the Agreement, and as such refuse any and all current or future use of The Artist Collective, LLC Services, or any portion thereof.

SECTION 5 – SUBSCRIPTIONS AND PAYMENTS

You shall pay to TAC the subscription fee (the “Subscription Fee”) in the amount and for the duration that you selected and agreed to pursuant to the sign-up page for TAC. The Subscription Fees will remain fixed during the Subscription Term unless you (a) exceed the maximum number of Seats or Brands as defined in your Plan or (b) purchase additional Services, Seats or Brands.

We will automatically bill your credit card or alternative payment method on a set day of each billing period for payment of the Subscription Fee. Unless otherwise provided herein, all payment obligations are non-cancelable, and all amounts paid are non-refundable. Payment processing for all fees payable during the Subscription Term is provided by such third party payment processor as TAC may utilize from time to time (“Payment Processor”), and in order to proceed with payment for such fees you will be required to agree to certain Payment Processor terms and conditions. TAC does not collect or store your credit card information. By providing a credit card or other payment method accepted by TAC, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the designated payment method and that you authorize our Payment Processor to charge your payment method for the total amount due to TAC. If the payment method you provide cannot be verified, is invalid or is otherwise not acceptable, your access to the Subscription Services may be suspended or canceled. You must resolve any problem we or our Payment Processor encounters in order to maintain access to the Subscription Services.
