Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users, subscribers, members and any others who access or use the Service (“Users”, “They”, “Them”). Users also consent to the collection, storage and use of their personal information, as detailed in the Privacy Policy.

If you wish to purchase any product or service made available through the Service ("Purchase"), you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to your Purchase including, without limitation, your user-name(s), member name(s), email addresses, other contact details, payment information (eg. payment agent details, transactional details, tax information). Please review our Privacy Policy to understand how this information is used and stored. When you make a Purchase, you will be asked to indicate your agreement and compliance with these terms and conditions. Should you elect not to agree, which is your right, you will not be granted access to make the Purchase. All of the content on the Site is under copyright protection (see “What we own” section) and may not be copied, forwarded, shared, duplicated or used in any way outside of this website without the express, written permission of Theron Skees or one of his designates.

The goal of the Services is to personally enrich, educate, inspire, inform and entertain Users in the Themed Entertainment Industry and the content will apply specifically to this end. The Services will primarily be delivered in a digital format (online access to the Site) for those who have opted in and provided contact information, however, some Services require direct, one on one communication that will be accomplished by purchasing said service, scheduling the day/time of the service then engaging in the duration of service that was purchased (see “Studio Sessions agreement” below). 

Disclaimers

  1. When a visitor to The Designer’s Creative Studio site purchases a studio mentoring session (1:1 with Theron), they are doing so with the understanding that the advice, mentoring, coaching, design process/definition, inspiration and all similar information is given as an industry professional based on Theron’s career experience (see Errors & Omissions). How the User decides to use the recommendations provided during the session is Their sole responsibility; the burden falls to the individual who booked the session. In addition, DCS and Theron attests that no information provided is proprietary to any company, is not a trade secret, copyrighted or trademarked information and is not in breech of any contract but that is referenced from personal experience and does not jeopardize any previous agreements/contracts he has engaged in. Any verbal ideas, concepts, principles or media discussed/reviewed in the session(s) remain the property of the individual (providing they are not already owned by another entity) who purchased the session for the purpose of receiving recommendations on said content. Drawings, plans and any physical media that represent the entirety of a themed experience cannot be reviewed by DCS or Theron at this time. The one on one sessions are intended to advise on industry-wide, accepted design principles, story-telling methodology, team function, individual roles/disciplines, design processes et al, not provide specific, design review for real or conceptual projects intended for use in the industry. The Consultation page of the Site should be used for that purpose.
  2. Access to professional consulting services are offered by Theron Skees on the Site, however, those services are completely separate from those offered on the Site. Any personal contact information provided on the Consultation page will comply with the Privacy Policy regarding use of that information. Any services executed through that service will be negotiated separately (outside of the Designer’s Creative Studio, LLC) and will not be in conflict with the Site. Any contract executed through the Consultation services offered by Theron Skees will not alter any of the Terms of Use, Privacy Policy or Services on the Site nor will the Site have any influence on the contract.
  3. Except where prohibited, the Site nor any of its delegates shall not be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, consequential or exemplary damages arising from a User or any third parties use of the Site. These exclusions include, without limitation, damages for lost profits, lost data, computer failure, or the violation of rights by any third party, even if the service entity have been advised of the possibility thereof and regardless of the legal or equitable theory upon which the claim is based.
