GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
 
These terms and any disputes arising from your use of shopmavie.com, our in-store services, or any purchase made from MA VIE are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
 
All content on shopmavie.com, including text, photographs, illustrations, graphics, logos, and the MA VIE name and brand marks, is the property of MA VIE or used with permission from our suppliers and is protected by United States and international copyright and trademark laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or use this content commercially without our written permission. Personal, non-commercial sharing of product images on social media with credit to @mavie_newyork is welcomed.
 
PRODUCT REPRESENTATION
 
We make every effort to display each product accurately, including colors, materials, dimensions, and packaging. Slight variations may occur due to monitor settings, lighting in product photography, and the handmade nature of many items we stock. These variations are not defects and are part of the character of objects made by independent makers.
 
PRICING AND PROMOTIONS
 
All prices are displayed in United States dollars and exclude applicable sales tax, which is calculated at checkout. Prices in our boutique and online may differ from time to time due to inventory and promotional cycles. We reserve the right to correct pricing errors and to refuse or cancel orders affected by such errors, with a full refund issued to the original payment method.
 
SALES TAX
 
New York sales tax is collected at checkout in accordance with state and city law. Tax rates are applied based on the shipping destination for online orders and the point of sale for in-store purchases. Certain food items may be exempt under New York tax code; our tax service applies exemptions automatically.
 
AGE RESTRICTIONS
 
You must be at least 18 years old to purchase from MA VIE or to provide a payment method.
 
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
 
MA VIE provides shopmavie.com, our in-store experience, and the products we sell on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by New York law, MA VIE and its members are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our website, your visit to our boutique, or your purchase of any product. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the product giving rise to the claim.
 
This limitation does not apply to liability arising from gross negligence, intentional misconduct, or matters that cannot be limited under applicable law.
 
PRODUCT SAFETY AND USE
 
Many items at MA VIE are decorative or intended for adult use. Read all product labels before use. Candles must be attended while lit and placed on heat-resistant surfaces. Edible items should be checked for ingredients before consumption. MA VIE is not responsible for damages, injuries, or allergic reactions resulting from misuse or use contrary to manufacturer instructions.
 
ACCESSIBILITY COMMITMENT

PRIVACY
 
Your use of shopmavie.com and any information you provide is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference into this Legal Notice.
 
AI USE AND TRANSPARENCY
 
MA VIE uses AI tools to assist with marketing copy, social media content, and operational tasks. Where AI is used, human editors review and approve before publication. We do not use AI to generate fake customer reviews or testimonials, and we do not represent AI-generated content as personally authored when it is not.
 
Product photography on shopmavie.com represents actual products as they ship. We do not use AI to alter products to appear different from what you receive. Lifestyle imagery and editorial scenes may include AI-generated or AI-enhanced visuals; these are styling references and are not literal product depictions.
 
If you ever interact with an AI customer service assistant on our site or by email, the system will identify itself as automated. Complex inquiries are routed to a human team member at MA VIE.
 
Customer data is not sold or licensed to third parties for AI training purposes.
 
THIRD PARTY LINKS AND SERVICES
 
Our website may contain links to third-party websites or integrate third-party services for payments, shipping, analytics, and marketing. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of third parties. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms.
 
MODIFICATIONS
 
We may update this Legal Notice from time to time. The current version is always posted on this page with the effective date. Continued use of shopmavie.com or our boutique after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
 
SEVERABILITY
 
If any provision of this Legal Notice is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
