Website and orders
mrvey.com presents MRVËY’s garment production and customisation services. The website does not provide an online checkout. Enquiries and orders are handled directly, in particular by email or Instagram. Product descriptions and example prices are informational; the accepted quote and the sales terms supplied before ordering define the agreed products, price, taxes, payment, production and delivery arrangements. These legal notices and the privacy policy do not replace those sales terms or mandatory pre-contractual information.
Intellectual property
The MRVËY name, identity and original website content are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. Rights belong to MRVËY or the relevant rightsholders. Client logos, trademarks, artwork and other third-party content remain the property of their respective owners. Except for uses allowed by law, reproduction or exploitation requires prior permission from the relevant rightsholder.
Client artwork & permissions
Authority and rights. The client confirms that the person placing or approving the order is authorised to bind the identified customer. For all supplied logos, trademarks, designs, photographs, text and other files, the client warrants that it owns the necessary rights or has obtained valid permissions covering the requested use, including production by MRVËY and its subcontractors. The client must not submit counterfeit, unlawful or unauthorised material and must provide proof of permission on reasonable request.
Production licence. For the identified order, the client grants MRVËY and the providers acting for it a non-exclusive licence to reproduce, technically adapt and apply those files to the agreed garments, samples, proofs and production documents in France, the EU and the manufacturing countries, including India, for fulfilment and necessary after-sales handling. The licence permits only adaptations needed for the agreed decoration process and does not transfer ownership. Advertising use is governed separately by the client-materials licence.
Scope of the service. Unless a separate written service is agreed, MRVËY does not undertake a trademark-availability search or legal clearance of client-supplied material, and a technical proof is not confirmation that the client owns the rights. The client must disclose any licence restrictions, required credits or expiry dates before acceptance. MRVËY may refuse unlawful content, request clarification or proportionately suspend disputed use while credible third-party claims are examined, with notice to the client and without removing any mandatory refund or termination rights.
Claims caused by supplied material. The client must promptly disclose a rights dispute and cooperate in providing the relevant permissions. For an order placed in a professional capacity, where expressly agreed, the client indemnifies MRVËY for proven direct losses, reasonable external defence costs and sums payable under a final judgment or a settlement approved by the client, to the extent caused by breach of these warranties. MRVËY must promptly notify the client, allow it to participate in the defence and take reasonable steps to limit loss; it cannot bind the client to a settlement without consent. The indemnity excludes MRVËY’s own unauthorised use, fault or changes outside the client’s approved instructions. For consumers and legally protected non-professionals, liability remains governed by applicable law rather than this business indemnity.
MRVËY designs & know-how
Buying garments or paying for development does not, by itself, transfer copyright in MRVËY’s original proposals, mockups, photographs, videos, patterns, technical files or other protected creations. MRVËY retains rights it owns in those materials and its protected know-how; client-owned logos and artwork remain the client’s property. Any transfer, exclusivity, delivery of editable source files or wider exploitation licence must be specifically agreed in writing, with the rights, purpose, territory and duration identified.
Original proposals and production files provided for evaluating or fulfilling the order must not be copied, published or given to another manufacturer for reuse without permission from the relevant rightsholder. The client may use and resell the lawfully purchased garments as permitted by applicable law and the order agreement. No clause claims ownership of the client’s pre-existing artwork or restricts lawful statutory uses.
Order, payment & approval
Contract documents. The project clauses in this notice apply to an order only when provided before confirmation and accepted as part of the quote, order agreement or applicable sales terms. An enquiry, an unsigned draft, silence or a website visit does not approve a quote, artwork or a publicity licence. The written quote identifies the actual customer, scope, specifications, taxes, payment stages and delivery commitment; specifically agreed terms take precedence over general terms.
Payment and production start. When the accepted quote so provides, production starts only after receipt of the agreed instalment, usable artwork, the final size/quantity breakdown and written proof approval. The quote must expressly identify an advance as a binding instalment (acompte) if that is intended; for consumers, an advance not otherwise characterised remains subject to the statutory rules on arrhes. A required balance may be due before dispatch if agreed beforehand. A payment default may justify a proportionate suspension after notice and a reasonable opportunity to remedy it, subject to mandatory rules.
Written proof approval (BAT). The client must check spelling, logos, authorised artwork, size quantities, placement, decoration dimensions and the agreed colour or sample references. Production relies on the version expressly approved in writing. Client choices and errors reproduced exactly as approved are not corrected at MRVËY’s expense solely because the client later changes its preference. Approval does not excuse a departure from the agreed proof, faulty workmanship or a breach of a mandatory guarantee. Screen mockups are illustrations; any material colour, placement or size tolerance must be stated and accepted before the order, rather than introduced after approval.
Changes, delays and cancellation after payment. Once the written quote is accepted and an advance expressly agreed as a binding instalment (acompte) is paid, the personalised order is firm: the client has no unilateral right to cancel for a change of mind, subject to any applicable statutory withdrawal, termination or other mandatory right. Starting production further commits project-specific expenditure; it does not remove mandatory rights. A cancellation request does not itself terminate the order. MRVËY may require performance or seek compensation for legally recoverable loss under applicable law. If MRVËY agrees to release the client, the written cancellation settlement may cover completed design and sampling, materials specifically acquired, cutting, decoration, manufacturing and non-cancellable supplier commitments, together with other proven recoverable loss, less saved costs and sums recovered, with no double recovery or automatic forfeiture of all payments. Any agreed penalty remains subject to the legal controls on penalties and unfair terms. Changes after confirmation or proof approval require written agreement on feasibility, additional cost and a revised delivery date before being carried out. Client delays may justify only an objectively proportionate schedule adjustment, notified promptly. MRVËY’s own breach and the statutory rules on arrhes remain subject to their applicable remedies.
Personalised goods. For consumer distance orders of goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalised, the statutory withdrawal exception in Article L.221-28(3) of the French Consumer Code applies, provided the required information is supplied before ordering. Ordinary selection of a standard size or colour does not automatically make an item personalised. This exception does not remove legal conformity or hidden-defect guarantees, nor rights arising from non-delivery or MRVËY’s breach.
Title and delivery. If this reservation-of-title clause is accepted in writing before delivery, MRVËY retains title to the identified goods until full payment of their agreed price, under Article 2367 of the Civil Code. Any recovery must follow lawful procedures; this does not authorise unilateral seizure. Transfer of risk is separate and follows applicable law, including consumer rules on physical possession. Please report delivery damage or an apparent mismatch promptly with useful photographs; a short notification period does not extinguish statutory remedies.
Textile variation & defects
What the order must specify. Garments are assessed against the agreed specifications and proof or approved reference sample, as well as applicable statutory conformity requirements. The quote or specification sheet must identify any relevant measurement method and specific, reasonable tolerances for dimensions, shrinkage under stated care conditions, shade between batches, decoration dimensions and placement. Tolerances must be disclosed and accepted before ordering; MRVËY does not introduce a universal percentage of defective garments or an unspecified tolerance after production.
Normal variation is not blanket permission for defects. Slight weave or texture differences, limited shade differences or small placement variations are not, on their own, nonconformities where they fall within the specifically agreed tolerances and meet the quality, appearance, durability, safety and intended use reasonably expected for the order. The handmade or textile nature of a product does not excuse holes, failed seams, incorrect authorised artwork, unsafe materials, abnormal shrinkage or a decoration failure in normal use. This list is illustrative: an aesthetic or finishing defect may also be a nonconformity even if the hoodie can still be worn. A BAT does not waive statutory guarantees.
Specific deviations. If a particular characteristic departs from the objective conformity criteria, a consumer must be specifically informed of that deviation and expressly and separately accept it when the contract is concluded, as required by Article L.217-5(III). A general statement that “minor flaws are normal”, or acceptance of these notices as a whole, does not replace that specific acceptance.
Claims and proportionate remedies. Contact remy@mrvey.com with the order reference, affected garments and a description; photographs and measurements can help identify the issue. An obvious, catastrophic flaw or proof of MRVËY’s personal fault is not a condition for a statutory conformity claim. For consumers, MRVËY remains responsible for qualifying conformity defects appearing within two years of delivery. Statutory repair or replacement is provided without charge, within the legal maximum of 30 days and without major inconvenience, according to the conditions governing the choice and any lawful refusal of a remedy. A price reduction or termination is available when the statutory conditions are met. Under Article L.217-14, a consumer cannot terminate the sale under the conformity guarantee for a minor nonconformity; the seller must establish that it is minor, and other applicable remedies remain available. A minor defect affecting one separable garment does not automatically justify refunding an entire conforming batch; the remedy follows the affected goods and the applicable statutory conditions.
Care and client choices. A later change of preference, a client error reproduced exactly from an approved proof, normal wear, or damage actually caused by use or washing contrary to the supplied care instructions is not, in itself, a manufacturing nonconformity. These situations must be assessed on their facts and do not reverse statutory burdens of proof or remove conformity, hidden-defect or other mandatory rights.
Professional-order liability
For clients ordering in a professional capacity only, and only where this limitation is specifically negotiated and accepted in the order agreement, MRVËY’s aggregate liability for ordinary contractual breach is limited to the price payable for the affected order. Legally indirect losses, such as indirect loss of profit or opportunity, are excluded to the extent permitted by law. This does not limit payment or restitution obligations.
The limitation does not apply to fraud, wilful misconduct, gross negligence, bodily injury, obligations or liabilities that cannot lawfully be limited, or where it would deprive an essential obligation of substance. It does not apply to consumers or legally protected non-professionals. An association or student group is not automatically a professional customer. A limitation that creates a legally prohibited significant imbalance is not imposed by these terms.
Client projects & advertising
MRVËY may photograph and film the design, sampling, decoration, manufacturing and finished garments of a client project, including hoodies, T-shirts, client logos, brand names and artwork supplied or created for that order, for its own portfolio, communication and advertising. Publication of client material requires the project-specific written authorisation described below.
Scope of the authorisation. Where expressly accepted in the quote, order confirmation or a separate written agreement, the client grants Rémy-Aditya Jain EI, trading as MRVËY, a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to: (1) reproduce the authorised material in photographs, videos and graphic presentations; (2) display and communicate it to the public; and (3) make technical adaptations such as resizing, cropping, editing, subtitling and assembling production footage, without distorting the logo or infringing moral rights.
Purpose, media, territory and duration. Use is limited to promoting MRVËY’s work and services on mrvey.com, its portfolio, its social-media accounts (including Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn), organic posts, paid online advertising, digital presentations and printed brochures. The licence covers worldwide distribution on those media for five years from delivery of the order, unless a shorter period or narrower scope is agreed in writing. It does not authorise resale of the client’s artwork, unrelated merchandising or an implied endorsement. Service providers may access the material only to produce or distribute that authorised content for MRVËY.
Acceptance and ownership. This clause must be supplied before the order and expressly accepted by an authorised representative of the client who holds, or has obtained, the necessary rights. Posting the clause on this website, submitting a logo or placing an order without that acceptance does not, on its own, establish permission to publish. The client retains ownership of its marks and artwork. During the agreed term, an expressly accepted licence over purely corporate logos and artwork is not revoked solely by a later change of preference, unless the parties agree otherwise or applicable law provides a right to end it. This does not restrict withdrawal of personal-data consent or image rights. Exclusions, confidentiality obligations and an agreed launch embargo take precedence; confidential designs, unreleased projects, correspondence, delivery labels and billing or contact details are not published without appropriate separate permission.
People and personal data. The client’s logo licence does not authorise use of another person’s face, voice, name or personal data. Identifiable people require a separate, specific image/voice authorisation and, where consent is the GDPR basis, freely given consent that can be withdrawn. Refusing publicity does not prevent the order. For minors, the required legal-representative authorisations must also be obtained. MRVËY uses garment-only or anonymised footage when those permissions are absent.
Requests and end of use. Contact remy@mrvey.com to request a narrower scope, confidentiality, an embargo or removal. MRVËY stops new uses when the licence expires and removes the material from channels it controls; printed copies already distributed cannot be recalled, and third-party reposts may require a request to the platform. Withdrawal of consent for personal data stops future consent-based use without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing. Statutory rights remain available at all times.
Personal data
See the privacy policy for the purposes, legal bases, recipients, retention and rights relating to personal data.
Accuracy & external links
MRVËY takes reasonable care to keep the website accurate and available. Information may change and errors or interruptions may occur; contact us if you notice one. Links to third-party websites are provided for convenience; those operators control their own content and policies. Nothing in these notices excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limits statutory consumer rights.
Complaints & mediation
Send an initial written complaint to remy@mrvey.com. If you are a consumer and the dispute remains unresolved after a prior written complaint, you may use the appointed consumer mediator free of charge under the conditions of the French Consumer Code (Articles L.612-1 et seq.). Mediation does not prevent you from taking court action.
Applicable law
French law applies, subject to mandatory EU rules and any mandatory protections available to consumers under the law of their habitual residence. Jurisdiction is determined by applicable law, including the rules protecting consumers; these notices do not impose exclusive jurisdiction in a way that removes those protections.
