I hate spam. JigCard Gallery will not participate in spam. See my Privacy Policy.


Security

To keep your finacial information secure, I use PayPal for purchases of memberships and CD-ROMs. PayPal does use a secure server. PayPal does not provide us with your credit card or bank account information - instead they credit my PayPal account when you make a purchase. PayPal does send us your email address, your name and, if needed for shipping a CD-ROM, your address.

JigCard Gallery has user ids and passwords to protect member accounts. It is wise to use a different password than you use on other important accounts because this website does not use a secure server. Members may change their password as frequently as they wish.

You may not use images from other members for personal or business purposes without their permission.


Free Trial

A free trial is available for members who use PayPal to register for a one year membership. New members can use their free trial membership immediately and will not be charged by PayPal until the free trial expires. If a trial membership is cancelled before the end of the trial period, the member will not be billed and the membership will expire at the end of the trial period.

New members will receive an email with instructions for creating a user id and password. Trial members have access to the same functionality as full members.

A member's user id uniquely identifies them to the system. It may be displayed in the Member Directory. Members choose their own user ids. JigCard Gallery is a safe place for all ages, so user ids will be censored if inappropriate.


Membership Cancellation

Cancellation during the trial period stops the billing of memberships. If you cancel your membership during the 2 day trial period, you will not be billed.

Cancellation does not change the expiration date. If you have already paid for your membership, you may receive a prorated refund. with your request and the reason for the refund.

Upload Pictures

Members may upload pictures to play a jigsaw with their own picture or to add the picture to the Gallery.

There are currently no restrictions on pictures uploaded to play a jigsaw. I reserve the right to limit the size of the file in the future. The picture is only kept temporarily.

Pictures added to the Gallery by members must conform to the quality and content standards of the site. Members must state that they agree to these standards (see below) before the picture will be added. The picture must be approved by Dotty before it will actually appear in the public Gallery. The approval process usually takes less than a day, but could take a week or more.

Picture Standards at JigCard Gallery

  1. Pictures added to JigCard Gallery must be in one of two categories:
    • The member uploading the picture owns the rights to the picture and grants JigCard Gallery the right to publish the picture for use on this site for online jigsaw puzzles and electronic greeting cards. The member must have created the photograph or obtained rights to it from the photographer. If the picture depicts a work of art, the member must have created the art, obtained rights to publish it or the art must be more than 70 years old and in a location that allows photographs.
    • The image is in the public domain. (See Copyright Issues for information on the public domain. In the United States pictures more than 70 years old are in the public domain.) Some artists state that their pictures are in the public domain. (This is a commercial website. Do not add pictures to the gallery that are for personal use only.) Credit should be given to the artist, when known. Most sources of public domain images want to be credited as the source. Members may included links to their image sources on their Member Page.
  2. If the picture contains recognizable people, the member must have their written permission to publish the picture. i.e. Members must obtain their model's written permission.
  3. Pictures will be high quality with artistic value. Snapshots are not appropriate. Photographs that are too dark to see will not be included in the Gallery. (Pictures are judged as is after upload which may be lower quality than the original.)
  4. Picture content must be appropriate for all ages. Pictures may not promote sex, violence or hate. Weapons are usually inappropriate.
  5. Pictures may be deleted for any reason by the member who added them or by Dotty Storer, JigCard Gallery owner and webmaster.
  6. Pictures may be digitally edited by the member and such editing will be honestly reported.
  7. Information about pictures will honestly state location, artist, digital editors, etc.
  8. Pictures will be displayed with copyright information, except thumbnail pictures are not required to display the copyright. Members can edit their copyright information on the Update Member Account screen. A member's copyright information applies to all their pictures in the Gallery.
Visitors may of these standards (e.g. inappropriate content, copyright violation) by including picture #, picture title and why it violates this policy.
