MEET JRW
Hi! I am James and I would like to personally thank you for coming to my website for my visual art! I am a self-taught artist who grew up in Wilmington, North Carolina. After attending college in North Carolina I spent time living in Florida and New Jersey before moving to Rock Hill, South Carolina. There are not many constants in life when you have moved as much as I have. I am lucky that art has always been a constant in mine whether it has been in visual form or another form such as music, dance or theater. I love finding new subjects to draw and paint. There is always something new to learn or something inspirational to try and capture. I paint in a realistic style using Oil Paint, Colored Pencils, Pastel, Charcoal and Graphite. My favorite subjects are animals and people but I also enjoy plants and landscapes. If you are interested in my artwork please send me a message, I would love to hear from you!

Information Collected Via Technology
As you use JRW Creatives, certain
information may also be passively collected and stored on our or our service

and operating system. We also use Cookies and navigational data like Uniform
Resource Locators (URL) to gather information regarding the date and time of
your visit and the solutions and information for which you searched and viewed,
or on which of the advertisements displayed on JRW Creatives you clicked. This
type of information is collected to make JRW Creatives and solutions more
useful to you and to tailor the experience with JRW Creatives to meet your
special interests and needs.
An "Internet protocol
address" or "IP Address" is a number that is automatically
assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. In some cases your IP
Address stays the same from browser session to browser session; but if you use
a consumer internet access provider, your IP Address probably varies from
session to session. For example, we, or our service providers, may track your
IP Address when you access JRW Creatives to assist with ad targeting.
"Cookies" are small pieces
of information that a website sends to your computer's hard drive while you are

of a third-party and the advertiser. This Privacy Policy does not cover the
privacy practices of any advertisers or ad servers.

conditions and privacy policy of each third party website or service that you

California resident, you shall and hereby do waive California Civil Code Section
1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the

affected his or her settlement with the debtor."

change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn’t always

Choice of Law; Arbitration.
These
Terms and the relationship between you and JRW Creatives are governed by
and will be construed under the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal
law, and the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to the
conflicts of laws provisions thereof. For all purposes of these Terms,
the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state or federal
courts located in York County, South Carolina.
Arbitration
Agreement.
Please read the following ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with
JRW Creatives and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us. Both
you and JRW Creatives acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of any
dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms, JRW
Creatives’ officers, directors, employees and independent contractors (“
Personnel”)
are third party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of
these Terms, Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted
the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third party beneficiary
hereof.
(a) Arbitration
Rules; Applicability of Arbitration Agreement
. Any dispute arising out of
or relating to the subject matter of these Terms shall be finally settled by
binding arbitration in South Carolina. The arbitration will proceed in the
English language, in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and
Procedures (“
Rules”) of JAMS/Endispute LLC (“JAMS”) then in
effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving
intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected
from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such
Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered
in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing
obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue
injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent
jurisdiction.
(b) Costs
of Arbitration
. The JAMS rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees.
JRW Creatives will pay all arbitration fees for claims less than $1,000. JRW
Creatives will not seek its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration
unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.
(c) Small
Claims Court
. Furthermore, either you or JRW Creatives may assert
claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in York County, South Carolina
or any United States county where you live or work.
(d) Waiver
of Jury Trial
. YOU AND JRW Creatives WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL
AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR
JURY. You and JRW Creatives are instead choosing to have claims and
disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more
limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are
subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and JRW
Creatives over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND JRW
Creatives WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the
dispute be resolved by a judge.
(e)
Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE
SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN
INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR
USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF
ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If however, this waiver of class or consolidated
actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor we are entitled to
arbitration; instead all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set
forth in (g) below.
(f) Opt-out.
You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Section by sending
written notice of your decision to opt out to the following e-mail address
jrwcreativespublishing@gmail.com within 30 days of first accepting these
Terms. You must include (1) your name and residence address; (2) the email
address and/or telephone number associated with your account; and (3) a clear
statement that you want to opt out of these Terms’ arbitration agreement.
(g) Exclusive
Venue
. If you send the opt-out notice in (f), and/or in any circumstances
where the foregoing arbitration agreement permits either you or JRW Creatives to
litigate any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these
Terms in court, then the foregoing arbitration agreement will not apply to
either party and both you and JRW Creatives agree that any judicial
proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or
federal courts located in South Carolina.
