Intellectual Property Rights

All content on our platform, including but not limited to educational materials, course content, photography examples, darkroom technique guides, composition guidelines, and digital editing tutorials, is the exclusive intellectual property of our organization. This includes text, images, videos, graphics, and all other materials. Users are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use this content solely for personal, educational purposes. Reproduction, modification, distribution, or transmission of any content without our explicit written consent is strictly prohibited. We protect our intellectual property rights vigorously and will pursue legal remedies for unauthorized use.

Our platform and all educational content are provided on an "as-is" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee that our services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free from harmful components. We shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our platform or educational materials.

Termination does not affect any rights or obligations that accrued prior to termination. We are not obligated to provide refunds or compensation for terminated accounts or access. Your obligation to comply with these terms survives any termination of your account or access to our platform. We encourage users to maintain copies of any important personal content they have created.

General Provisions

These terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding your use of our platform. If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. Your failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of that provision. We may assign our rights and obligations under these terms to third parties without notice. You may not assign your rights under these terms without our written consent. These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with applicable Czech law. We may update these terms periodically, and we encourage you to review them regularly. Your continued use of our services following any updates indicates your acceptance of the revised terms.
