Terms of service
Short version: Painter's Cards and the three studios are free tools; nothing is uploaded; no account is needed. The details are below.
1The sites and their tools
Painter's Cards (this hub) and the three studios it introduces — Van Gogh's Card, Cézanne's Card and Monet's Card — are free to use. No login, no registration, no payment.
2Images and data
Painting, palette extraction and export run in your browser. Reference photos you add are processed locally and are never uploaded to, or stored on, any server.
3External links and demo images
The three studios live on their own domains and are linked from here; their own terms apply there. The demo images and animations on this hub were rendered by the studios' engines from public-domain paintings.
4Ads and contact
If advertising appears on these sites, it is served by independent third-party providers under their own terms. For anything else: jizhi2024@foxmail.com
Open-source fonts used
All fonts across the family are open source; no paid typeface is used, and no font is fetched from a third-party font service — files are self-hosted or loaded from the site itself.
