1. General
These terms and conditions of sale (these “Terms”) govern the (i) 3D image capture and / or scan (“Scan”), production, sale and delivery of Dopl 3D miniatures and other customized products (collectively, the “Physical Products”) and the (ii) Scan, digital production and delivery of digital products including but not limited to an electronic image or representation of a user (collectively, the “Digital Products” and together with the Digital Products, the “Products”), and all transactions incidental thereto (collectively, the “Transactions”), by or on behalf of Dopl LLC (“Dopl”) to Dopl’s customers (each, a or the “Customer” and together the “Customers”).
Dopl may provide, at its sole discretion, Products free of charge (“FoC Products”) to the Customer, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in these Terms or actions of Dopl shall grant any right to the Customer to receive any FoC Products and the Customer hereby acknowledges that any offer of Dopl to provide FoC Products may be revoked by Dopl at any time without any liability to the Customer.
If Customer finds any provision of these Terms not acceptable, the Customer must so notify Dopl immediately and must not proceed with the Scan or place an Order. Deviations from these Terms require the written approval of Dopl.
1. Offers, Orders and Confirmation
Upon Customer’s acceptance of these Terms, Dopl may take one of more Scans of the Customer in a variety of poses, produce a Product and either (i) sell such Product to the Customer based on a Confirmed Order (as defined below), whether at the time of the Scan or in the future, or (ii) provide such Product as a FoC Product to the Customer regardless of whether the Customer places an Order (as defined below.
The process for placement of an Order (as defined below) for Products (other than Free Products) shall be as follows:
Customer may place an order for a Product (an “Order”) based on the Scan Data (as defined below) at any of Dopl’s physical stores, kiosks, or offices; scanning sites or online (collectively, the “Dopl Sites”). All offers made by Dopl are revocable and subject to change without notice to the Customer. Dopl shall be entitled to refuse an Order for any or no reason. No Order is binding upon Dopl until a duly authorized representative of Dopl acknowledges and accepts the Order in Dopl’s ordering system or by using such other method as Dopl may determine from time to time, in the respective Dopl Site where Customer placed the Order or online (a “Confirmed Order”). Dopl shall sell and deliver to the Customers, and each Customer shall purchase and accept from Dopl, the Products described in a Confirmed Order. Except where otherwise provided for herein, Confirmed Orders cannot be canceled by the Customer as they represent a custom-made offering with a production process initiating immediately upon Confirmed Order.
Notwithstanding any prior confirmation of an Order by Dopl, Dopl shall have no obligation to perform any Transaction or any of its obligations under this Agreement if Customer is in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement or provided misrepresentations to Dopl.
Each Confirmed Order shall be considered a separate agreement between the parties to purchase and sell the Products, and any failure to deliver the Products under any Confirmed Order shall have no consequences for other deliveries. These Terms and the terms and conditions of a Confirmed Order (together, this “Agreement”) taken together shall constitute the entire agreement between Dopl and the Customer regarding the sale and delivery of the Products pursuant to such Confirmed Order.
3. Prices
The price of the Products shall be as posted at Dopl Sites, on the forms used by Dopl to place Orders, or at such other locations as may be determined by Dopl from time to time. All published prices are subject to change without prior notice. Dopl’s prices are ex works (Brooklyn, NY). Such prices include standard packaging. Shipping costs as well as taxes, duties or charges in any jurisdiction levied in relation to the Products shall be for Customer’s account and will be added to each invoice as separate line items.
4. Payment Terms
The purchase price for the Products to be delivered under this Agreement and all other amounts due in connection therewith shall be due and payable in full upon the placement of an Order. Each Customer shall make the payment in US dollars in cash or by debit or credit card without any discount, deduction or offset whatsoever. In no event shall any loss, damage, injury, destruction or Force Majeure Event (as defined below) release Customer from its obligation to make the payments required herein.
5. Delivery and Acceptance
All deliveries of the Physical Products shall be made ex works Brooklyn, NY (Incoterms 2020) to the address on the Order Confirmation and title to and risk of loss for the Physical Products shall pass to the Customer upon delivery thereof to any common carrier at Dopl’s production facility in Brooklyn, NY. Dopl or its agent may select any commercial air, ship, motor or rail carrier or any combination thereof for the transportation of the Physical Products.
Any times or dates for delivery of the Products by Dopl are estimates and shall not be binding on Dopl. Delivery of the Physical Products is estimated within ten (10) to fifteen (15) business days from the date of scan. Such estimate may be longer for other Physical Products. Dopl will make commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Customer if significant delays are expected. Dopl is entitled to deliver the Products under this Agreement in part and to invoice a Customer separately for such partial deliveries. In no event shall Dopl be liable for any delay in delivery. Delay in delivery of any Product shall not relieve any Customer of its obligation to accept delivery thereof.
Dopl shall deliver the Digital Products to the e-mail address provided by the Customer to Dopl or by using such other method as may be determined unilaterally by Dopl from time to time.
A Customer’s failure to accept delivery of any Product pursuant to a Confirmed Order shall not release or excuse such Customer from its obligation to timely pay all amounts due in connection with such Confirmed Order. If a Customer rejects or revokes acceptance of the Products or fails to pay any amounts when due, or repudiates with respect to all or part of a Confirmed Order, Dopl, in its sole and absolute discretion, may extend the period of delivery by such period as Dopl may deem reasonable, or withhold or cancel delivery of any Product, or cancel any or all Confirmed Orders without any further obligations to the Customer whatsoever. In such event the Customer shall be responsible for any and all costs and expenses incurred or damages or losses suffered by Dopl in connection with any such delay notwithstanding any action or inaction by Dopl with regard to such delay.
6. Examination and Conformity to Order
Promptly upon receipt of any Product, each Customer shall conduct a full and complete inspection of such Products and satisfy itself that the Products delivered conform with Dopl’s warranties and meet all requirements set forth in the Confirmed Order. Each Customer shall notify Dopl in writing of any apparent defects or other non-compliance with such Confirmed Order that Customer could reasonably have discovered during such inspection within seven (7) days from the date of receipt of such Products, and Customer shall notify Dopl in writing within seven (7) days of the date on which Customer shall first have become aware of any hidden defect or non-compliance which could not reasonably have been discovered during Customer’s initial inspection of the Products. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any and all claims for defective or non-compliant Products must be received by Dopl within thirty (30) days of the earlier to occur of (a) the delivery of the Products pursuant to this Agreement or (b) Dopl’s notification of the Customer that the Products are ready for delivery.
If a Customer fails to timely notify Dopl of any defects or non-compliance of any Product delivered or Customer uses, destroys or modifies any Product that Customer knows or should have known to be defective or non-compliant without Dopl’s prior written consent, such Customer shall be deemed to have unconditionally accepted such Products and waived all of its claims for breach of the Limited Warranty (as defined below) or otherwise in respect of such Products.
Physical Products that Dopl consents or directs a Customer in writing to be returned shall be returned to Dopl at the Customer’s risk to the destination directed by Dopl.
7. Description of Physical Products; Disclosures; Warnings
The Physical Products are manufactured by a 3D printing process and are composed of a core resin polymer powder mixture, binding, and infiltration material. Additional product lines may also utilize a photopolymer resin and enamel paint. The finalized material is fragile and should be treated with care to prevent it from breaking. The Physical Products are not toys and should be kept away from children. If parts are ingested, seek medical assistance immediately.
Slight differences may appear between the Customer and the Physical Products due to the nature of the 3D processes. Certain details may be difficult to decipher due to the minute stature of the Physical Products, and structures may be omitted due to their fragility in 3D productions.
Colors and detailing on the Physical Products may fade over time. Direct sunlight will lead to bleaching effects. The Physical Products should be kept away from moisture or chemicals.
Based on positioning and balance at the time of scan, not all Physical Products stand without support. In such cases, permanent stands are available for purchase and can be added after the miniature is produced. For additional product lines, permanent stands may, at Dopl’s sole discretion, come standard with offering.
8. Customer’s Representations

Customer represents that he/she is authorized to enter into this Agreement on behalf of each individual being scanned together with the Customer, and each such individual shall be treated as a Customer for the purposes of this Agreement.
