Email: info@patternata.com
By using Patternata, creating an account, purchasing a subscription, downloading digital products, placing an order, or using our design tools, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.
If you do not agree to these terms, you should not use Patternata.
1. About Patternata
Patternata is a digital pattern design studio that allows users to create original patterns using imported artwork, user-created designs, Patternata motif libraries, digital tools, layout features and related creative resources.
Depending on the services available at the time, Patternata may allow users to: create repeat patterns and placement designs; use Patternata motif libraries; upload their own artwork; export designs; download digital motif collections; purchase subscriptions; order custom printed fabrics, scarves or other made-to-order products; access design tools, templates, previews and related services.
Patternata may update, improve, change or remove features from time to time.
​
2. Your account
You may need to create an account to access certain Patternata features, including saved designs, exports, subscriptions, purchases, motif libraries or ordering services.
You are responsible for: providing accurate account information; keeping your login details secure; all activity carried out through your account; notifying us promptly if you suspect unauthorised access.
We may suspend or close an account if we reasonably believe it has been used fraudulently, unlawfully, in breach of these terms, or in a way that harms Patternata, other users, our systems, our suppliers or our intellectual property.
​
3. Use of the Patternata design studio
Patternata provides creative tools that allow you to arrange, adapt and combine design elements into original pattern compositions.
You may use Patternata for lawful personal or commercial creative purposes, subject to these terms and any licence terms that apply to specific content, motif libraries, subscriptions or downloads.
You must not use Patternata to: infringe anyone’s copyright, trademark, design rights or other intellectual property rights; upload content you do not own or do not have permission to use; create, upload or distribute illegal, abusive, hateful, exploitative or harmful content; interfere with the operation, security or performance of Patternata; reverse engineer, scrape, copy, extract or reproduce Patternata’s software, motif libraries, content, database, tools, interface or systems; use Patternata to create a competing motif library, clip art collection, stock asset collection, design generator or pattern-making tool.
​
4. User-uploaded artwork
You may upload your own artwork, images or design assets to Patternata where this feature is available.
By uploading content, you confirm that: you own the content or have permission to use it; your use of the content does not infringe third-party rights; the content does not breach any law or these terms; you are responsible for any claims arising from the content you upload.
You retain ownership of your uploaded artwork. However, you grant Patternata a limited licence to use, store, process, display, preview, render, export and transmit that content solely as needed to provide the Patternata services, including design previews, saved files, exports, printing, fulfilment, technical support and account functionality. We do not claim ownership of your original uploaded artwork.
​
5. Patternata motif libraries and digital assets
Patternata may provide motif libraries, design elements, templates, artwork collections, clip art, brushes, backgrounds, textures or other creative assets.
Unless stated otherwise, these assets remain owned by Patternata, Creative Boutique Limited, its licensors or its content suppliers.
You may use Patternata motif libraries to create finished pattern designs and finished products, subject to these terms.
You must not: resell Patternata motifs as standalone digital assets; redistribute, share, gift, licence, upload or transfer Patternata motifs as separate files; extract motifs from Patternata libraries for resale or republication; package Patternata motifs into clip art bundles, design packs, Canva templates, stock graphics, digital papers, SVG/PNG collections or similar products; upload Patternata motifs to third-party marketplaces as standalone assets; use Patternata motifs to build or support a competing design tool, motif library, pattern generator, stock asset platform or print-on-demand asset collection.
In simple terms: you may use the motifs to create finished designs. You may not sell the motifs themselves. The cake may leave the kitchen; the recipe does not.
​
6. Commercial use of user-created designs
Subject to these terms and any plan-specific restrictions, you may use finished pattern designs created by you in Patternata for personal and commercial purposes.
This may include use on: fabrics; scarves; fashion products; stationery; packaging; print-on-demand products; digital previews; marketing materials; other finished end-use products.
However, commercial use is permitted only for finished designs created through your own arrangement, composition or creative use of Patternata tools and assets.
You may not claim ownership of the underlying Patternata motifs, libraries, software, interface, templates or original Patternata content.
​
7. Free use, watermarked exports and paid features
Patternata may offer free access to certain tools, limited design creation, watermarked previews, trial features or restricted exports.
Free users may be able to create, preview or save designs, but certain features may require a paid subscription or purchase, including: high-resolution exports; watermark-free exports; access to premium motif libraries; additional saved designs; advanced design tools; commercial-ready files; special discounts or member-only benefits.
Where an export is watermarked, you must not remove, obscure, crop out, alter or bypass the watermark unless you have obtained the appropriate paid access or licence.
Patternata may change free and paid feature limits from time to time.
​
8. Subscriptions
Patternata may offer monthly, annual, lifetime or other subscription plans. The details of each subscription plan, including price, billing period, included features and limitations, will be displayed at the point of purchase.
By purchasing a subscription, you authorise us or our payment provider to charge the applicable fee. Subscriptions may renew automatically unless cancelled before the renewal date. You are responsible for cancelling your subscription before renewal if you do not wish to continue.
Unless stated otherwise: monthly subscriptions renew each month; annual subscriptions renew each year; cancellation stops future renewal but does not automatically refund the current billing period; access may continue until the end of the paid period; subscriptions are for individual use unless a business/team licence is offered.
Patternata may change subscription prices or features, but we will aim to provide reasonable notice where required.
9. Lifetime access
If Patternata offers a lifetime access option, “lifetime” means access for the lifetime of the Patternata service, product or relevant platform feature. It does not mean access for the biological lifetime of the customer, the company, the internet, civilisation, or whichever one collapses first.
Lifetime access may still be subject to: technical changes; discontinued features; third-party platform changes; legal restrictions; misuse or breach of these terms; reasonable service evolution over time.
​
10. Digital downloads
Patternata may sell digital products, including motif collections, downloadable artwork, templates, files or related design resources.
Digital products are usually provided by instant access or download. By purchasing a digital product, you agree that the product may be supplied immediately after purchase. Where applicable, this may affect cancellation rights for digital content. UK online selling rules treat digital content differently from physical goods, and businesses must provide clear pre-contract information to customers. Unless stated otherwise, digital downloads are licensed, not sold outright. You may use them only in accordance with the applicable licence terms.
You must not resell, redistribute, share, upload, transfer, sublicense or repackage Patternata digital downloads as standalone assets. Due to the nature of digital products, refunds are not normally provided once files have been accessed, downloaded or supplied, unless the product is faulty, inaccessible because of an issue on our side, or your statutory rights require otherwise.
​
11. Custom printed products
Patternata may allow you to order custom printed fabrics, scarves or other made-to-order products using your own designs or designs created through Patternata. Custom printed products are made specifically for your order.
You are responsible for checking all order details before purchase, including: design layout; scale; colour choices; repeat type; product type; fabric base; scarf size; quantity; delivery address; spelling or text included in the design; image quality and resolution.
We may not be able to cancel or change an order once production has started.
Because custom printed products are made to order, we do not accept returns or cancellations for change of mind, incorrect customer choices, unwanted designs, unsuitable scale, wrong quantity, or colour expectations based only on screen display.
This does not affect your statutory rights. You may still be entitled to a remedy if an item is faulty, damaged, not as described, or does not do what it is supposed to do. GOV.UK states that sellers must offer remedies where goods are faulty, not as described, or not fit for purpose.
​
12. Colour, scale and print variation
Digital previews are provided as a guide only. Colours may vary between screen display and printed product due to: monitor settings; device display differences; fabric base; print process; dye behaviour; lighting conditions; image resolution; finishing methods.
Small variations in colour, scale, positioning, texture, finish or fabric behaviour are normal in custom textile printing and are not automatically considered faults. Where accurate colour matching is critical, we recommend ordering samples where available before placing larger orders.
​
13. Production, delivery and third-party fulfilment
Custom printed products may be produced, printed, finished or fulfilled by Patternata, Creative Boutique Limited, or selected third-party suppliers, printers, fulfilment partners or delivery providers. Estimated production and delivery times are not guaranteed unless expressly stated.
We are not responsible for delays caused by: postal or courier disruption; customs checks; incorrect delivery information; failed delivery attempts; supplier delays outside our reasonable control; events beyond our control.
You are responsible for any customs duties, import taxes, local charges or clearance fees that may apply in your country.
14. Prices and payments
Prices are shown on the website or app at the time of purchase. Prices may be displayed in different currencies depending on location, platform settings or payment provider functionality. We may change prices at any time, but changes will not affect orders already accepted unless there has been an obvious pricing error. Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers such as Stripe, PayPal, Wix Payments or other providers. We do not store full payment card details ourselves.
Orders and subscriptions are not confirmed until payment has been authorised.
​
15. Promotions, discounts and member offers
Patternata may offer discounts, launch offers, subscription benefits, promotional codes or member-only offers. Promotions may be changed, withdrawn or limited at any time.
Unless stated otherwise: discounts cannot be exchanged for cash; discounts cannot be applied retrospectively; only one discount may be used per order; promotional codes may have expiry dates or eligibility conditions.
Subscriber discounts, where offered, may be sent by email or displayed within the user account area.
​
16. Intellectual property
All intellectual property rights in Patternata’s brand, name, logo, website, app, interface, software, code, text, layout, design tools, motif libraries, artwork, templates, images, product photography, documentation and original content belong to Patternata, Creative Boutique Limited, its licensors or its suppliers.
You must not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, scrape, reverse engineer, sell, license or exploit Patternata intellectual property except as expressly permitted by these terms.
You may not use the Patternata name, logo or branding without our written permission.
​
17. Third-party services and links
Patternata may include links to third-party websites, platforms, payment providers, fulfilment partners, social media platforms or external services. We are not responsible for third-party websites, services, policies, content, delays, errors or availability.
Your use of third-party services may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies.
​
18. Availability of Patternata
We aim to keep Patternata available and functioning, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access.
We may suspend, update, restrict or remove access to Patternata where needed for: maintenance; security; technical improvements; legal compliance; platform changes; misuse prevention; business or operational reasons.
We are not liable for temporary unavailability, data loss, feature changes or interruptions except where the law says otherwise.
​
19. Design storage and backups
Patternata may allow users to save designs, projects or account content.
You are responsible for keeping your own copies of important files, artwork, exports and order records. We do not guarantee permanent storage of user designs, especially where accounts are inactive, subscriptions expire, features change, or technical issues occur.
Where possible, we will aim to give reasonable notice before removing major storage features, but we cannot guarantee indefinite access to saved designs.
​
20. Prohibited conduct
You must not: use Patternata unlawfully; upload infringing or stolen artwork; attempt to access another user’s account; interfere with Patternata’s security or systems; use bots, scrapers or automated tools without permission; extract Patternata motif libraries or databases; remove watermarks without authorisation; copy Patternata’s interface, tools, features or content; use Patternata to produce defamatory, hateful, abusive, exploitative or unlawful material; make false claims about your rights to content; use Patternata in a way that damages our business, suppliers, users or reputation.
We may suspend or terminate access if we believe these terms have been breached.
​
21. Termination
You may stop using Patternata at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if: you breach these terms; payment fails; your account is used fraudulently; your use creates legal, technical or reputational risk; we discontinue part or all of the service.
Termination does not affect rights or obligations that have already arisen, including payment obligations, intellectual property restrictions, licence restrictions, and limitations on resale or redistribution of Patternata assets.
​
22. Refunds and statutory rights
Nothing in these terms limits your statutory rights. For physical goods, UK consumer law gives customers rights where goods are faulty, not as described or not fit for purpose. GOV.UK explains that businesses must offer appropriate remedies in those circumstances.
For online and distance selling, businesses must provide certain information before customers buy, including details about the trader, goods/services, pricing, delivery and cancellation rights.
Custom-made, personalised and digital products may have different cancellation rules from standard physical goods, but this does not remove statutory rights where something is faulty or misdescribed.
Our detailed Returns & Refunds Policy forms part of these terms.
​
23. Limitation of liability
We do not exclude or limit liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or breach of rights that cannot be excluded under consumer law.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Patternata and Creative Boutique Limited will not be liable for: loss of profits; loss of sales; loss of business; loss of opportunity; loss of goodwill; indirect or consequential losses; losses caused by user-uploaded content; losses caused by third-party services; losses caused by incorrect order information supplied by the customer; colour, scale or print variation within normal production tolerance.
Our total liability for any claim relating to a purchase will normally be limited to the amount paid by you for the relevant product or service, except where the law requires otherwise.
​
24. Business users
If you use Patternata for business purposes, you are responsible for ensuring that your use of Patternata, exported files, printed products and digital assets is suitable for your commercial needs.
Business users are responsible for carrying out their own checks before production, resale, marketing or large-scale manufacturing.
We are not responsible for business losses resulting from design choices, print expectations, production decisions, customer resale issues, third-party marketplace rules or your own commercial use of Patternata outputs.
​
25. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms & Conditions from time to time. The updated version will be posted on our website with a revised “last updated” date. If changes are significant, we may notify users by email, account notice or website notice where appropriate.
Continued use of Patternata after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.
​
27. Governing law
These Terms & Conditions are governed by the laws of England and Wales. If you are a consumer, you may also have rights under the laws of the country where you live. Any disputes will be subject to the courts of England and Wales, except where consumer protection laws require otherwise.

Commercial Use & Motif Licence Policy
Last updated: 26June 2026
This Commercial Use & Motif Licence Policy explains how you may use designs, motifs, pattern exports, digital downloads and creative assets made available through Patternata.
Patternata is operated by Creative Boutique Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. By using Patternata, downloading assets, exporting designs, purchasing motif collections, subscribing to Patternata, or placing an order, you agree to this policy.
This policy forms part of our Terms & Conditions.
1. Summary
You may use Patternata to create original finished designs for personal and commercial use. You may sell physical products made from finished designs you create in Patternata, subject to this policy. You may not resell, redistribute, extract, share, repackage or upload Patternata motifs as standalone digital assets.
​
2. What this policy covers
This policy applies to: premium motif collections; Patternata motif libraries; free motif collections; digital motif packs; design elements; templates; backgrounds; textures; brushes; uploaded or arranged pattern compositions; exported pattern files; downloaded digital assets; custom printed designs; designs created using the Patternata design studio.
It applies whether you access Patternata through the website, app, subscription, free account, paid download, promotional offer, or any other Patternata service.
​
​3. Ownership of Patternata assets
Patternata motif libraries, artwork collections, design elements, templates, backgrounds, textures, software, interface design, branding, written content and original creative assets are owned by Creative Boutique Limited, Patternata, its licensors or its suppliers.
Copyright is an automatic right in the UK, and intellectual property may include copyright, designs, trade marks and other protected rights. Business Companion, a government-backed trading standards resource, describes IP as covering key elements including trade marks, copyright, designs and patents.
You are buying or receiving a licence to use Patternata assets under these terms. You are not buying ownership of the underlying motifs or asset libraries.
​
4. Your own uploaded artwork
If you upload your own artwork to Patternata, you retain ownership of that artwork. By uploading content, you confirm that: it does not infringe anyone else’s rights; you own it, or you have permission to use it; it is not copied from another designer, artist, brand, marketplace or platform without permission; you have the right to use it for the purpose you intend.
Patternata does not become the owner of your uploaded artwork. However, you give Patternata a limited technical licence to store, process, display, preview, render, export and transmit your uploaded content as needed to provide the service.
​
5. Finished designs created in Patternata
A “finished design” means a completed pattern, placement artwork or composition created by you using Patternata tools. A finished design may include:
your own uploaded artwork; Patternata motifs; Patternata templates; your own arrangement, layout, scale, colour choices and composition; exported repeat patterns; scarf layouts;fabric designs; product-ready artwork.
Subject to this policy, you may use finished designs commercially.
​
6. Permitted personal use
You may use finished designs created in Patternata for personal projects, including: home crafting; personal sewing projects; gifts; personal fabric printing; private artwork; personal stationery; non-commercial social media posts; personal design experiments.
You may also print your finished designs for your own use.
​
7. Permitted commercial use
Subject to your subscription level, purchase terms and this policy, you may use finished designs created in Patternata commercially.
Permitted commercial use includes selling finished physical products such as: fabrics; scarves; clothing; accessories; bags; stationery; wrapping paper; wallpaper; home décor items; packaging; printed gifts; print-on-demand products; other physical end-use products.
You may also use finished designs for: branding concepts; lookbooks; social media marketing; digital mockups; promotional images; portfolio presentations; client presentations; fashion collections; product development.
The important point is that the commercial product must be a finished design or finished product, not a resale of Patternata’s motifs as separate assets.
​
​8. What you may not do
You must not: resell Patternata motifs as standalone digital files; redistribute Patternata motifs; give away Patternata motifs; share Patternata motif files with other people; upload Patternata motifs to stock asset websites; upload Patternata motifs to print-on-demand asset libraries; upload Patternata motifs to Canva, Creative Market, Etsy, Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, Freepik, Design Bundles, Creative Fabrica or similar platforms as standalone assets; package Patternata motifs into clip art packs; sell Patternata motifs as PNG, SVG, JPEG, EPS, AI, PSD, PDF or any other digital asset format; create digital papers or pattern packs where the underlying value is the resale of Patternata motifs; use Patternata motifs to create competing motif libraries; use Patternata motifs to create a pattern generator, design app, AI training dataset, design subscription, asset database or similar tool; scrape, extract, trace, redraw or recreate Patternata motifs for resale; claim Patternata motifs as your own original standalone artwork.
Translation: make beautiful things with the library. Do not walk off with the library.
​
9. Digital product restrictions
If you purchase or download a Patternata motif pack, digital collection or downloadable design asset, it is licensed to you for use under this policy. You may use the assets to create finished designs. You may not sell, share, transfer, sublicense, upload, distribute or repackage the downloaded assets themselves.
This applies even if you modify the assets. Changing the colour, cropping the shape, adding a shadow, flipping the motif or giving it a new name does not magically turn it into yours. That is not transformation; that is theft with a haircut.
​
10. Use on print-on-demand platforms
You may upload finished designs created in Patternata to print-on-demand platforms, provided the design is used on finished products and does not allow third parties to download or extract Patternata motifs as standalone files. Permitted use may include finished product listings on platforms such as: Spoonflower; Contrado; Printify; Shopify; Etsy, for finished physical products; other print-on-demand or e-commerce platforms.
You may not upload Patternata motifs or asset packs to any platform as downloadable design resources. You are responsible for checking the terms of each third-party platform before uploading your designs. Some marketplaces have their own rules, and occasionally they behave like a filing cabinet possessed by a minor demon. Their rules are not controlled by Patternata.
​
11. Use for fabric and textile production
You may use finished designs created in Patternata for fabric and textile production, including small-batch or commercial production. This includes use for: fashion collections; scarves; dresses; shirts; resort wear; accessories; textile samples; wholesale fabric; retail fabric; made-to-order textile products.
You are responsible for checking that your exported file is suitable for your intended production method, including scale, resolution, colour mode, repeat quality and technical print requirements.
Patternata is not responsible for production errors caused by incorrect file setup, incorrect scale selection, poor uploaded image quality, or failure to follow printer specifications.
​
12. Use for client work
You may use Patternata to create finished designs for client projects, provided you do not transfer Patternata motifs or assets to the client as standalone editable files.
You may provide a client with: finished pattern files; final artwork; printed product mockups; flattened exports; production-ready files; finished goods; marketing visuals.
You may not provide the client with: Patternata motif libraries; extracted motif files; editable asset packs; standalone Patternata elements; access to your Patternata account; files that allow the client to extract and reuse Patternata motifs separately from the finished design.
If your client wants to use Patternata directly, they should create their own account or obtain their own licence.
​
​13. Editable files and layered files
Unless expressly permitted, you should not share layered or editable files that expose Patternata motifs as separate reusable assets. This includes layered files where individual Patternata motifs can be extracted, copied or reused outside the finished design.
Where possible, commercial files supplied to customers, clients, manufacturers or marketplaces should be flattened or otherwise prepared so that Patternata assets are not easily extracted as standalone elements.
​
14. Free motifs and free accounts
Free motifs, free collections, trial access and free account features are still protected by this policy. “Free” does not mean “public domain.” You may use free Patternata motifs according to the permissions stated for that collection or account tier. You may not resell, redistribute, repackage or extract free motifs as standalone assets.
​
​15. Premium motifs and subscriber-only assets
Premium motifs, subscriber-only collections and paid assets may only be used while you have the relevant subscription, purchase or licence. You may continue to use finished designs that were lawfully created and exported during an active paid subscription, unless the specific collection terms state otherwise. However, cancellation of your subscription does not give you the right to extract, download, store, resell or redistribute Patternata motif libraries as standalone assets.
​
​16. Watermarked exports
Patternata may offer free or trial exports with watermarks. Watermarked exports may be used for preview, testing, personal evaluation or non-commercial sharing, unless otherwise stated.
You must not: remove a Patternata watermark; crop out a watermark; obscure a watermark; use software to erase a watermark; sell watermarked exports as finished commercial designs; use watermarked files for commercial production.
Watermark-free commercial exports require the appropriate paid access, subscription or licence.
​
​17. Attribution
Unless stated otherwise, attribution is not required for finished commercial products created using Patternata. You do not need to write “made with Patternata” on every scarf, dress, label or product listing. That said, we obviously won’t faint dramatically if you credit Patternata. We may even recover. Patternata may request attribution for special collaborations, competitions, promotional campaigns or free collections, but this will be stated separately.
​
​18. Prohibited categories
You must not use Patternata assets or tools to create content that is: unlawful; hateful; abusive; defamatory; exploitative; pornographic; misleading; fraudulent; infringing; intended to impersonate another brand, designer or artist; likely to damage Patternata’s reputation.
You must not use Patternata to copy or imitate protected third-party designs, logos, fashion prints, textile patterns, trademarks, characters or branded artwork.
​
19. AI training and dataset use
You may not use Patternata motifs, digital assets, libraries, exports, previews or downloaded files to train, fine-tune, test or develop AI models, machine learning systems, image generators, pattern generators, recognition tools or asset databases without our written permission. You may not include Patternata motifs or assets in datasets, prompt libraries, synthetic design systems or automated design tools. This restriction applies whether the use is commercial, internal, experimental or unpaid.
​
20. No transfer of licence
Your Patternata licence is personal to you or your business account. You may not transfer, sell, rent, sublicense, lend, share or assign your licence to another person or business without written permission from Patternata. f team or business licences are offered, they will be subject to separate terms.
​
21. Multiple users and business accounts
A standard individual account is for one user only. f several people in a business, studio, school, agency or team wish to use Patternata, each person may need their own account or a suitable team licence. You must not share login details across multiple users unless your plan expressly allows this.
​
22. Licence breach
If you breach this policy, Patternata may: suspend or terminate your account; revoke access to motif libraries or downloads; cancel active subscriptions; refuse future orders; require removal of infringing listings or products; pursue payment for unauthorised use; take legal action where appropriate.
We may also contact third-party marketplaces, platforms or payment providers where Patternata assets are being misused.
​
​23. Reporting misuse
If you believe Patternata assets are being misused, copied, resold or redistributed, please contact us at: info@patternata.com
Please include: the suspected infringing link; screenshots if available; the name of the platform or seller; any relevant order, account or collection details.
​
​24. Relationship with Terms & Conditions
This policy forms part of our Terms & Conditions. If there is any conflict between this policy and a specific written licence issued by Patternata for a particular product, collection, collaboration or business arrangement, the specific written licence will apply to that product or arrangement.
​

We may update this policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on our website with a revised “last updated” date. Continued use of Patternata after the policy is updated means you accept the updated policy.

Returns & Refunds Policy
Last updated: 26 June 2026
This Returns & Refunds Policy explains how cancellations, returns, refunds, replacements and damaged or faulty products are handled when you purchase from Patternata.
Patternata is operated by Creative Boutique Limited, a company registered in England and Wales.
Email: info@patternata.com
This policy should be read together with our Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy, Commercial Use & Motif Licence Policy, and any product-specific terms shown at checkout.
Nothing in this policy affects your statutory rights.
1. Overview
Patternata offers digital design services, subscriptions, digital products and custom printed products.
Because different types of products have different cancellation and refund rules, this policy covers: custom printed fabrics, scarves and made-to-order items; digital downloads and digital motif packs; Patternata subscriptions; damaged, faulty or incorrect products; cancellation requests; refund processing.
UK guidance confirms that businesses only have to offer refunds for certain categories of goods, such as personalised or custom-made items, where the item is faulty. It also confirms that online customers usually have cancellation rights, but different rules apply to downloads and streaming services.
​
2. Custom printed and made-to-order products
Custom printed products include items such as: printed fabrics; printed scarves; custom textile products; products printed using a design created in Patternata; products printed using artwork uploaded by the customer; any item produced specifically for an individual order.
These products are made to order and produced according to the details selected or supplied by the customer.
For this reason, we do not accept returns, refunds or cancellations for custom printed or made-to-order products because of: change of mind; incorrect product choice; incorrect size, scale or quantity selected by the customer; incorrect delivery information supplied by the customer; unwanted design choices; customer-uploaded artwork errors; spelling, layout or image quality issues supplied by the customer; colour expectations based only on screen display; failure to check the order details before purchase.
This does not affect your statutory rights if the product is faulty, damaged, not as described or otherwise fails to meet the standards required by law.
3. Customer responsibility before ordering
Before placing an order for a custom printed product, you are responsible for checking: the selected product; the selected fabric or material; the dimensions; the scale of the design; the repeat type; the placement of motifs or artwork; the preview image; the quantity; any text or spelling included in the design; the quality and resolution of uploaded artwork; the delivery address; the order summary at checkout.
Once a custom printed order has entered production, it may not be possible to cancel, amend or pause the order.
4. Colour and print variation
Digital previews are provided as a guide only.
Printed colour may vary from what appears on screen due to: monitor and device settings; screen brightness; fabric base; print process; dye behaviour; lighting conditions; finishing processes; differences between digital preview and physical textile output.
Minor colour, scale, texture, alignment or finish variation within normal production tolerance is not considered a fault.
Where exact colour matching is important, we recommend ordering a sample where available before placing a larger order.
5. Faulty, damaged or incorrect custom products
If your custom printed product arrives faulty, damaged, misprinted, materially different from the confirmed order, or incorrect due to our error or a production error, please contact us at:
Email: info@patternata.com
Please contact us within 7 days of receiving the item and include: your order number; your full name; a description of the issue; clear photographs of the product; photographs of the packaging if the item arrived damaged; any other relevant information.
We will review the issue and may offer, depending on the circumstances: a replacement; a repair where appropriate; a partial refund; a full refund; another suitable remedy.
UK guidance states that businesses must offer remedies where goods are faulty, not as described, or not fit for purpose.
​
6. Damage during delivery
If an item arrives damaged, please notify us promptly using the contact details above.
Please keep the product and packaging until we have reviewed the issue. We may need photographs or further information to raise the matter with the delivery provider, fulfilment partner or production supplier.
Damage during delivery will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
​
7. Lost or delayed deliveries
Delivery times are estimates unless expressly stated otherwise.
We are not responsible for delays caused by: postal or courier disruption; customs processing; incorrect delivery information; failed delivery attempts; local import checks; events outside our reasonable control.
If your order appears to be lost, please contact us and we will investigate with the relevant delivery provider or fulfilment partner.
Where a parcel is confirmed lost, we may offer a replacement or refund depending on the circumstances.
​
8. Digital products and motif downloads
Digital products may include: motif packs; digital design assets; templates; downloadable files; digital pattern resources; other downloadable creative content.
Digital products are usually made available immediately after purchase.
Because digital products cannot usually be returned once accessed or downloaded, refunds are not normally offered after access has been provided, unless: the file is faulty; the file cannot be accessed because of an issue on our side; the wrong file was supplied; your statutory rights require a remedy.
Different rules apply to digital downloads under UK online selling rules, and businesses must give customers clear information before purchase.
​
9. Subscriptions
Patternata may offer monthly, annual, lifetime or other subscription plans.
Subscription details, including price, billing period, renewal terms and included features, will be shown at the point of purchase.
Unless stated otherwise: monthly subscriptions renew monthly; annual subscriptions renew annually; cancellation stops future renewal; cancellation does not automatically refund the current billing period; access may continue until the end of the paid period; failure to use the subscription does not create an automatic right to a refund.
You are responsible for cancelling your subscription before the next renewal date if you do not wish to continue.
Refunds for subscriptions may be considered where: duplicate payment has occurred; billing error has occurred; access was not provided due to an issue on our side; required by applicable law.
​
10. Lifetime access purchases
If Patternata offers lifetime access, the meaning of “lifetime” will be explained in the relevant offer and Terms & Conditions.
Lifetime access purchases are generally non-refundable once access has been provided, unless: access was not provided; there was a technical or billing error; the purchase was misdescribed; a refund is required by law.
​
11. Cancellation before production or access
Where possible, we may accept cancellation requests before: a custom printed order enters production; a digital product is accessed or downloaded; a subscription or paid feature has been activated.
However, cancellation cannot be guaranteed once processing, production, access or fulfilment has started.
To request cancellation, contact: info@patternata.com
​
12. Return shipping
If we ask you to return a faulty, damaged or incorrect item, we will explain the return process.
Where the issue is confirmed as our error, production fault, damage in transit, or another issue for which we are responsible, we may cover reasonable return shipping costs or provide a return label where available.
If a return is accepted as a goodwill exception for any other reason, return shipping arrangements and costs will be confirmed separately.
​
13. Refund method and timing
Approved refunds will usually be made to the original payment method. Refund processing times may vary depending on: payment provider; card issuer; bank processing times; currency; platform used for purchase; whether the order involved third-party fulfilment.
Once we approve a refund, we will process it within a reasonable period.
​
14. Non-refundable items and charges
Unless required by law, the following are generally non-refundable: custom printed products without fault; made-to-order items without fault; digital products already accessed or downloaded; subscriptions after the billing period has started; shipping charges where delivery was completed correctly; import duties, customs fees or local taxes; customer errors in uploaded artwork or order details; colour variation within normal production tolerance.
​
15. How to request help
To request a return, refund, replacement or cancellation review, please contact: info@patternata.com Please include: order number; account email address; description of the issue; photographs where relevant; date of delivery; preferred resolution, if applicable.
We may ask for further information before making a decision.
​
16. Abuse of returns or refund process
We reserve the right to refuse refund or return requests where we reasonably believe there has been: misuse of the returns process; fraudulent claims; repeated false claims; deliberate damage; breach of our Terms & Conditions; unauthorised commercial exploitation of Patternata assets.
17. Statutory rights
Nothing in this policy limits or excludes your statutory rights.
If you are a consumer, you may have legal rights where products are faulty, not as described, not fit for purpose, or where required pre-contract information has not been provided.
For most online purchases, consumers must be told about cancellation rights, and failure to provide required information can extend the cancellation period.
​
18. Changes to this policy
We may update this Returns & Refunds Policy from time to time.
The updated version will be posted on our website with a revised “last updated” date.
Continued use of Patternata after the updated policy is posted means you acknowledge the updated policy.

An order is dispatched once production, finishing, quality checks and packing have been completed.
Where tracking is available, tracking details may be sent by email or made available through your account.
Dispatch confirmation does not always mean the parcel will be delivered immediately. Delivery time depends on the carrier, destination, customs processing and local delivery conditions.

​
11. Customs, duties and import taxes
For international orders, customs duties, import taxes, clearance fees, brokerage fees or local charges may apply.
These charges are set by the destination country and are usually the responsibility of the customer unless expressly stated otherwise at checkout.
Patternata does not control customs charges and cannot guarantee whether they will apply.
You are responsible for checking any import requirements, duties, restrictions or local taxes before placing an order.
If you refuse delivery because of customs charges, local taxes or import fees, the original shipping cost and any return or handling fees may not be refundable.
