◆ ORDERING A CUSTOM DESIGN
My general Terms of Service also applies to ordering a custom design. Read here.
The more information you provide, the better of an idea I get of the concept you have inside your head. Do not be disappointed if I cannot nail the concept you have for a custom character if you provide me with minimal information.
Be aware you are ordering a custom from me. If you have an extremely specific idea for a design in your head, do not order a custom from me. I have my own design niches and behaviours, and ordering a custom from me means commissioning an idea from my head.
I will not completely redo the design once I have made it past the sketching phase under any circumstance. I will send you the sketch of the custom and you may request changes, additional features or edits; however once the custom is finished I will not change anything past very minor edits (adding an accessory, changing eye colours, etc.).
◆ PURCHASING AN ADOPT
I will only accept upfront payments or half-half payment plans within the retrospect of a week. Do not offer or bid money you don't have, and do not offer or bid money if you are unable to pay with either of these plans.
Payments cancelled by myself will be refunded fully upon notice.
Any adopts purchased directly from me are non-refundable with the exception of an emergency situation; however I will require proof of the situation before refunding.
Backing out of payment is on thin ice with violation; if you back out of paying for an adopt more than once, it will result in you getting blacklisted from BOTH purchasing adopts/customs and my commissions.
◆ USAGE
You may use the character you bought however you like (both personal and commercial use) provided proper credit to me.
Editing a character you bought however you see fit is allowed provided I am still credited as the original designer.
Do not add additional rules to my designs.
◆ TRADING/SELLING
Do not under ANY circumstance resell my customs or adopts for more than you paid for originally. If the character has additional art you may raise the price, but be reasonable and consider how much you paid for the additional art. For example: do not buy an adopt from me for 20$ and bump the character's worth up to 60$ after one piece of art (unless, of course, that art itself was worth 40$).
If you are reselling/trading a design of mine, notify me beforehand. I prefer to know where my designs end up, and may want to purchase the design back myself.
Free designs of mine that were gifted/traded to you must not be sold without my permission unless the character has additional art (again, be respectful; the character itself will have no worth, only the art included).
◆ OTHER
Avoid reselling or trading bought designs to people that I have blacklisted. This is more of a heavy preference than anything, but I prefer for it to be respected.
The character will only be considered yours after it is fully payed off (money, art, or otherwise), and I have every right to revoke the character if you fail to pay in full or violate my Terms of Service up until then. Commissioning art of the design or reposting the design anywhere as your own before you have fully payed it off is violating my Terms of Service, and the design will be revoked.
Apart from that, I will never revoke a design after you have fully payed it off. Rare exceptions of this are problematic people (homo/transphobes, racists, Nazis, serial abusers, etc.), however you will be refunded what you paid me beforehand. I will not pay for additional art that was received while the design was under your ownership, nor will I use it.

If you violate my Terms of Serve in any way you will be blacklisted from my commissions, and further harassment will result in a block on ALL sites. I will determine myself if the violation was purposeful or not; if not, you will be reminded of my Terms of Service, however further ignorance to it will also result in a similar consequence.
