Terms of Service

Effective Date: May 1, 2026

Welcome to Safety Takes, a product by Art School Dropouts.

By accessing or using Safety Takes, you agree to these Terms.

1.

What Safety Takes Is

Safety Takes is a campaign organization platform designed to help independent filmmakers plan, manage, and execute crowdfunding campaigns across multiple projects.

Safety Takes provides tools, workflows, templates, and organizational resources.

Safety Takes is not legal, financial, tax, accounting, investment, fundraising, or professional consulting advice.

We do not guarantee:

  • —crowdfunding success
  • —funding outcomes
  • —audience growth
  • —sponsorship opportunities
  • —financial results

How you use the platform and the results you achieve are your responsibility.

2.

Accounts

You are responsible for:

  • —maintaining the security of your account
  • —all activity occurring under your account
  • —the accuracy of information you provide

You must be at least 18 years old to use Safety Takes.

3.

Payments

Safety Takes offers a free trial, monthly subscriptions, and one-time purchases.

Free Trial

New accounts receive a free trial of the complete platform for a fixed period without a payment method. The trial does not automatically charge you and does not automatically convert to a paid plan.

Safety Takes may, at its discretion, offer eligible trial users additional trial access. Any such extension is subject to the conditions presented to the user at the time it is offered.

This discretionary provision is legal Terms language only. It must not be surfaced or referenced in public marketing, pricing, FAQ, SEO, metadata, or other public-facing content.

Founding Access

Founding Access is a one-time purchase billed at the price displayed on the Pricing page at the time of purchase. A one-time purchase grants access to the purchased plan for as long as Safety Takes remains commercially available and operational.

Monthly Access

Monthly Access is a recurring subscription billed at the price displayed on the Pricing page at the time of purchase. Monthly subscriptions are billed automatically until canceled. You may pause or cancel at any time. Access continues through the end of the current billing period.

Pricing Change Protection

We may adjust public pricing in the future. Your original purchase terms — including the price you originally paid and any lifetime entitlement — are honored and are not automatically changed by future public price adjustments. Changes to existing subscribers' rates, if any, require a separate explicit process.

4.

Refunds

Because Safety Takes provides immediate access to digital services, purchases are generally non-refundable.

If you experience a billing error or technical issue that prevents access to the service, contact us and we will work to resolve the issue.

5.

Your Data

You retain ownership of your projects, contacts, notes, uploaded content, and campaign information.

You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to collect, store, and manage any information uploaded to the platform.

We do not sell your data.

5a.

Account Inactivity & Permanent Deletion

If your free trial expires without activating a paid plan, your account enters an inactive grace period during which your workspace is read-only but your data is preserved.

If you do not activate a paid plan before the end of the retention period, your workspace and all of its data are permanently and automatically deleted. This deletion cannot be undone.

Due to platform limitations, the underlying authentication login identity (managed by our hosting/authentication provider) may be retained by that provider in a terminal, access-revoked state and may not be fully removable through Safety Takes alone.

Additional information regarding data handling is described in our Privacy Policy.

6.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • —violate any law
  • —harass, threaten, or harm others
  • —upload illegal or infringing content
  • —attempt unauthorized access to systems or accounts
  • —interfere with operation of the platform

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

7.

Service Availability

We strive to keep Safety Takes available and reliable.

However, the service may experience interruptions, maintenance periods, upgrades, or outages.

Features may be modified, replaced, or discontinued over time.

We are not responsible for losses resulting from service interruptions.

8.

Intellectual Property

Safety Takes, including its software, workflows, templates, design, branding, and platform structure, is owned by Art School Dropouts.

You may use the platform for your own projects.

You may not reproduce, resell, redistribute, reverse engineer, or create competing products based on Safety Takes without permission.

9.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Safety Takes is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, non-infringement, and uninterrupted availability.

10.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Safety Takes and Art School Dropouts shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages.

This includes, without limitation:

  • —failed crowdfunding campaigns
  • —lost revenue
  • —lost business opportunities
  • —lost data
  • —interrupted production schedules

Our total liability for any claim relating to the service shall not exceed the amount paid by you to Safety Takes during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

11.

Force Majeure

We are not responsible for delays, interruptions, or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including internet outages, third-party service failures, natural disasters, labor disputes, governmental actions, or other unforeseen events.

12.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

13.

Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of Safety Takes after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. The effective date will be updated when revisions are made.
