Unsolicited Submissions

Crayola LLC welcomes comments regarding its products and services. However, Crayola LLC’s policy is not to accept or consider creative ideas, suggestions or materials other than those it has specifically requested.

Accordingly, we must ask that you not send us any such ideas. While we do value your feedback on our services and products, we request that you be specific in your comments on those services and products and not submit any creative ideas, suggestions or materials. If, despite our request that you not do so, you send us creative suggestions, ideas, notes, drawings, concepts or other information (collectively, the "Information"), the Information shall be deemed, and shall remain, the property of Crayola LLC.
