Terms & Conditions
Effective Date: June 23, 2026
Last Updated: June 23, 2026
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website located at www.tattoopopups.com (the "Website"), operated by Tattoo Popups LLC, a California limited liability company ("Tattoo Popups," "we," "us," or "our"), with principal offices at 215 Arena Street, El Segundo, CA 90245.
By accessing or using the Website, requesting a proposal, booking a call, or otherwise engaging with us, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Website.
Important: Tattoo Popups provides professional on-site tattoo activations for events. Separate written service agreements, proposals, and guest waivers apply to booked events and may contain additional terms. If there is a conflict between these Terms and a signed client agreement, the signed client agreement controls for that event.
1. Who We Are
Tattoo Popups is an experience studio that produces turnkey live tattoo activations at events — including brand activations, hotels and hospitality programming, festivals, weddings, private celebrations, and destination events. We are not a tattoo shop, artist marketplace, or referral platform. We deploy trained crews, custom flash, digital guest management, permitting, insurance, and station operations as an integrated service.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to use this Website and to receive tattoo services at our events. By using the Website, you represent that you are at least 18. Tattoo services are provided only to guests who present valid government-issued photo identification confirming they are 18 or older. We do not tattoo minors under any circumstances.
3. Website Use
You agree to use the Website lawfully and in good faith. You may not:
- Use the Website for any unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful purpose
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems, accounts, or data
- Scrape, crawl, or use automated tools to harvest content or data without our written permission
- Interfere with the security or operation of the Website
- Misrepresent your identity, affiliation, or authority to book on behalf of a client or venue
- Infringe our intellectual property or the rights of others
We may suspend or terminate access to the Website at our discretion if we believe you have violated these Terms.
4. Inquiries, Proposals & Event Bookings
Information on the Website is for general marketing and planning purposes. It does not constitute a binding offer. Event pricing, crew size, flash scope, permitting requirements, and logistics are confirmed in a written proposal or service agreement.
Unless otherwise stated in your agreement:
- A deposit may be required to reserve a date and begin production work (including custom flash design and permit filing)
- Balances are due per the payment schedule in your agreement
- Cancellations, rescheduling, and refund terms are defined in your signed agreement
- Lead times vary by city, venue, and event type; we recommend contacting us at least 4–6 weeks before an event in our hub markets, and longer for festivals, destination events, or complex permitting
Submitting a contact form, booking a call, or requesting a proposal does not guarantee availability.
5. Guest Participation at Events
Guests who receive tattoo services at a Tattoo Popup event must complete our digital waiver and consent process, present valid ID, and follow crew instructions. We reserve the right to refuse service to any guest who:
- Cannot provide valid government-issued photo ID proving they are 18 or older
- Appears intoxicated or otherwise unable to provide informed consent
- Has a medical condition, skin condition, or other factor that makes tattooing inadvisable in our professional judgment
- Behaves in a way that endangers themselves, our crew, or other guests
Refusal of service is at the discretion of our check-in and operations staff. Deposits and event fees paid by the host client are generally not affected by an individual guest's refusal.
6. Tattoo Services — Assumption of Risk
Tattooing involves inherent risks, including but not limited to pain, bleeding, swelling, infection, allergic reaction, scarring, and dissatisfaction with appearance. You acknowledge that:
- Tattoo Popups and its licensed practitioners follow industry-standard sanitation and safety protocols, including Bloodborne Pathogen training and applicable health department requirements
- We carry commercial general liability insurance (currently $2 million per occurrence) and can provide certificates of insurance to clients and venues as part of the booking process
- Results vary by skin type, placement, aftercare, and individual healing
- We are not a medical provider and do not provide medical advice
- Guests are responsible for following aftercare instructions provided at the event
We offer a limited touch-up policy for event tattoos as described at the time of service. Touch-up availability may require visit to a partner studio and does not apply to issues caused by failure to follow aftercare instructions.
7. Client Responsibilities
Event hosts, venues, agencies, and brand clients ("Clients") are responsible for:
- Providing accurate event information (date, location, guest count, access, power, and venue requirements)
- Securing venue permission for tattoo services and cooperating with permitting and insurance requirements
- Communicating our activation requirements to venue staff and security
- Ensuring guests understand that tattooing is optional and subject to eligibility screening
Clients agree to indemnify Tattoo Popups for claims arising from inaccurate information provided by the Client or from the Client's failure to obtain necessary venue approvals, except to the extent caused by our negligence or willful misconduct.
8. Intellectual Property
All Website content — including text, graphics, logos, photographs, videos, flash designs, and software — is owned by Tattoo Popups or its licensors and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our written permission.
Custom flash created for a Client event is licensed for use at that event as specified in the service agreement. Tattoo Popups retains ownership of underlying artistic elements, templates, and methodologies except where otherwise agreed in writing.
9. Photos & Media
We may photograph or record events for documentation, portfolio, marketing, and social media. Clients and guests may opt out of identifiable photography by notifying our crew at check-in. We make reasonable efforts to honor opt-out requests but cannot guarantee exclusion from all ambient event coverage.
By attending an event where photography occurs, you grant Tattoo Popups a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use images and video depicting the activation, tattoos (without identifying guest information unless separately consented), and event environment for business purposes.
10. User Submissions
If you submit content through the Website (testimonials, comments, images, or other materials), you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, and display that content in connection with our business. You represent that you have the right to submit the content and that it does not violate any third-party rights.
11. Privacy
Your use of the Website and participation in our events is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and share personal information. California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), described in our Privacy Policy.
12. Third-Party Services & Links
The Website may integrate third-party tools (for example, scheduling, analytics, or embedded media). Your use of those tools is subject to the third party's terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party websites linked from the Website.
13. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE WEBSITE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE WEBSITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
Descriptions of services, past events, and capabilities on the Website are illustrative. Actual event execution is governed by your signed agreement and applicable law.
14. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TATTOO POPUPS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE OR PARTICIPATION IN AN EVENT, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR PERSONAL INJURY EXCEPT WHERE SUCH LIMITATION IS PROHIBITED BY LAW.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE WEBSITE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100) OR (B) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US FOR THE SPECIFIC EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.
15. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Tattoo Popups, its members, managers, employees, contractors, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: (a) your use of the Website; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) content you submit; (d) your conduct at an event; or (e) your breach of any representation you made to us.
16. Dispute Resolution
We prefer to resolve concerns informally. Before filing a claim, contact us at hello@tattoopopups.com and allow 30 days for resolution.
Except for qualifying small claims court matters or claims for injunctive relief, any dispute arising out of these Terms or the Website that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Los Angeles County, California, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator's decision is final and binding. Either party may bring an individual action in small claims court if eligible.
Class Action Waiver: You agree to resolve disputes with us on an individual basis only, not as part of a class, consolidated, or representative action.
17. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. For matters not subject to arbitration, the exclusive venue is the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California.
18. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date above and, where appropriate, provide notice on the Website. Continued use of the Website after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
19. Accessibility
We are committed to making the Website accessible to users with disabilities. If you encounter accessibility barriers, contact us at hello@tattoopopups.com and we will work to provide the information in an alternative format.
