Agreement to our legal terms
We are Spencer Scheffy, doing business as Warmly Written (“Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”), based in San Francisco, California, United States.
We operate the website at warmlywritten.com (the “Site”), as well as any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (collectively, the “Services”).
Warmly Written turns user-uploaded photos into AI-illustrated greeting cards with handwritten-style messages, printed and mailed to the recipient. The Services are available for personal use (cards for friends and family) and for business use (cards for clients, colleagues, and work contacts).
You can contact us by email at support@warmlywritten.com or by mail to Warmly Written, address available upon request, San Francisco, CA, United States.

18. Dispute resolution
Informal negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these legal terms (each a “Dispute”), you and we agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one party to the other.
Binding arbitration
If the parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitration will take place in San Francisco, California.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either party related in any way to the Services be commenced more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.
Restrictions
Any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law: (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to informal negotiations and arbitration
The parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a party; (b) any Dispute related to allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief.
