What is bought on colorasm?

On colorasm website you buy a digital colour identified by hexadecimal code. The acquired colour becomes yours and remains yours forever, unless you decide to sell it away. Your ownership of the colour is absolute and extends beyond the frame of colorasm website.

You are the colour's only certified owner - no matter how many times the colour had been used by other parties prior to your purchase. They were using YOUR colour, without realising this fact; you are the only person eligible to claim the ownership on your colour and the only one who can resell it.

What can be done with a colour?

  1. You can send it as a gift to anyone you want
  2. You can re-sell the colour on colorasm website for any price you like
  3. You can proudly own the colour, advertise your ownership and adjust colour's preferences.

First login into colorasm system

Immediately after the confirmation of colour purchase transaction you receive an email with a hyperlink (URL) to the first login page.

On the first login page you are given a choice between:

  1. keeping the colour to yourself
    or
  2. sending it as a gift to somebody else

In either case you have to specify the name of the owner: your name or that of the gift recipient. Please note - the name you specify on this page appears on the certificate of ownership. The only way to change it at later time would be to re-sell the colour.

Sending colour as a gift

Upon the purchase of the colour, on your first login into the colorasm system (only at this point) you are given an option to present the colour as a gift to somebody else. You are prompted to enter the name and the email address of the colour-gift recipient and, optionally, to attach a personal message. This way the sole ownership of the colour is assigned to the gift recipient but not to the buyer (you).

Advertising your ownership

There are several ways in which you can advertise your ownership of a colour. You can advertise your name on the colorasm website, you can put a personalised colour banner on your own website.
