Terms of Use — Bravely Brands
Last updated: July 26, 2026 · Effective: July 26, 2026
Bravely Studios LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the Bravely Brands application (the “App”). These Terms of Use govern your use of the App. Please read them carefully before using the service.
Acceptance of Terms
These Terms govern your use of the Bravely Brands enquiry form at bravely.dev/brands and the client portal at brands.bravely.dev, both operated by Bravely Studios LLC. By submitting an enquiry or signing in to the portal, you agree to these Terms. The consulting work itself is governed by the separate written engagement we agree with you before work begins; where that engagement conflicts with these Terms, the engagement controls.
Description of Service
Bravely Brands is a brand-development consulting service: logo and brand consultation and creation, brand style guides, and social media assets. The enquiry form lets you tell us what you need and which times suit you. The portal at brands.bravely.dev is where we post project updates and deliver finished files to you privately. These pages are how we talk to you and hand over work; they are not a software product you license.
Who Can Enter These Terms
This is a business service. By accepting these Terms you confirm that you are at least 18 years old, that you are acting for a business or other organisation, and that you have authority to enter these Terms on its behalf. If you are signing for a company, "you" means that company.
Enquiries and Scheduling
Submitting the enquiry form does not create a contract, reserve capacity, or oblige either of us to proceed. The times you choose are preferences, not a booking: we check our calendars and reply to confirm a real time. Any availability shown on the page, including how many client spots remain, is our good-faith estimate at that moment and can change. We may decline an enquiry or place it on a waitlist for any lawful reason.
Fees and Engagement
Pricing for consulting work is agreed with you in writing before we start; nothing on the enquiry page is an offer or a quote. The initial brand consultation is free. Payment terms, scope, revision rounds, and timelines are set out in your engagement, not here.
Ownership of Deliverables
Ownership of the brand materials we create for you transfers to you as set out in your engagement, normally on full payment. We keep a copy so we can re-deliver files and maintain a record of the work. We will not publish your brand, logo, or style guide in our portfolio or marketing without asking you first. You are responsible for clearing your brand name and marks for use — we do not provide trademark clearance, registration, or legal advice, and a delivered design is not a guarantee that a name or mark is available to use or register.
What You Provide Us
You confirm that any content you give us — names, copy, images, existing marks, reference material — is yours to share, and that our use of it to do the work will not infringe anyone's rights. You are responsible for the accuracy of what you tell us in the intake and consultation. If you send us material you do not have the rights to, we may stop work on it.
The Client Portal
Access to your portal requires a Bravely Account and is granted to the email address we agreed with you. Keep your sign-in secure; anyone who signs in as you can see and download your project files. Deliverables are served only to authenticated sessions. We may suspend portal access for non-payment as set out in your engagement, or where an account is being misused. We keep your files available for a reasonable period after the project ends — download and keep your own copies; the portal is a delivery mechanism, not a backup service.
Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
• submit enquiries in bulk, automatically, or under a false identity
• attempt to access another client's portal, files, or project
• probe, scan, or interfere with the portal or the systems behind it
• use the service for any unlawful purpose, or to develop a brand for an unlawful one
Disclaimers
The enquiry form and the portal are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that they will be uninterrupted or error-free. Nothing here is legal, trademark, tax, or business advice. Creative work is subjective, and we do not warrant any particular commercial result from a brand we design.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Bravely Studios LLC and its officers, directors, employees, and agents are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, use, or goodwill, arising out of or related to the enquiry form or the portal. Our total liability for any claim arising from these Terms shall not exceed the amount you paid us for the engagement to which the claim relates. This does not limit any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The effective date at the top of this page will be updated accordingly. Continued use of the enquiry form or the portal after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. Changes here do not alter a signed engagement already in progress.
Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Kansas, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Except that the Resolving a Dispute section of these Terms is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, and subject to that section, which sends most disputes to individual arbitration, any dispute not subject to arbitration shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Kansas, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction. This does not apply to a claim brought in small claims court, or to any claim severed to court under the Resolving a Dispute section, either of which may be brought where you live. Nothing in this section removes a consumer-protection right, or the right to bring a claim in the courts of your own country, that the mandatory law of your place of residence gives you.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
Resolving a Dispute
This section was added on July 26, 2026. It applies to disputes that arise on or after that date. It does not apply to any dispute that had already arisen, or that you had already raised with us, before then.
Talk to us first. Before starting arbitration or a lawsuit, send a Notice of Dispute to legal@bravely.dev describing what happened, what you want, and how to reach you. We will do the same for you at the address on your account. All limitations periods are paused from the date a Notice of Dispute is sent until 60 days later, or until either of us says in writing that talks have ended, whichever comes first. Not sending a Notice of Dispute does not bar you from filing.
Individual arbitration. If we cannot resolve it, you and Bravely Studios LLC agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, the App, or our relationship will be settled by binding individual arbitration rather than in court, except for the carve-outs below. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit: a neutral arbitrator decides instead of a judge or jury, discovery is more limited, and the decision is final and enforceable in any court with jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the Governing Law section, this section is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
Who runs it. Arbitration is administered by the American Arbitration Association under its rules then in effect, including the Commercial Arbitration Rules. The AAA's rules are at adr.org. If the AAA is unavailable or declines to administer the case, the arbitration will be administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules. If neither is available, either of us may ask a court to appoint an administrator or arbitrator under Section 5 of the Federal Arbitration Act.
Who pays. We pay all AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees for any arbitration you begin, other than the initial filing fee set by the applicable AAA fee schedule, and we will pay that too if you tell us it is a hardship. We pay these regardless of who wins. We will not seek our attorneys' fees or costs from you unless the arbitrator finds your claim was frivolous as measured by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b). Nothing here limits your right to recover attorneys' fees where a statute provides for them.
Where it happens. You may have the arbitration conducted on documents only, by telephone or video, or in person in the county where you live or have your principal place of business. You never have to travel to Kansas to bring a claim against us.
What is carved out. Either of us may bring an individual claim in small claims court where you live, if it qualifies. Either of us may ask any court for an injunction or other equitable relief to stop actual or threatened infringement or misuse of intellectual property, credentials, or confidential information. Nothing here stops you from reporting anything to a government agency.
Individual basis only. Claims are brought only in your own individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief only to the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent needed for that party's own claim. If a court decides this individual-basis requirement is unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief — including any request for public injunctive relief that the law says cannot be waived — then that specific claim or request is severed and proceeds in court, and everything else remains in arbitration. Any claim or request severed to court is stayed until the arbitration of the remaining claims is complete.
Jury trial. To the extent any dispute does proceed in court, you and we each waive the right to a jury trial, except where that waiver is not permitted by the law that applies to you. If a court finds this jury-trial waiver unenforceable, only that waiver is severed and the rest of this section still applies.
If we change this section. If we change this Resolving a Dispute section after the date you accepted it, the change does not apply to any dispute we already had written notice of, and you may reject the change by emailing legal@bravely.dev within 30 days of it taking effect. Rejecting a change leaves the version you accepted in force.
You can opt out. You may reject this Resolving a Dispute section entirely by emailing legal@bravely.dev on or before August 25, 2026, or, if you first accept these Terms after July 26, 2026, within 30 days of doing so. Put "Arbitration Opt-Out" in the subject and include the name and email address on your account. That is all it takes. Opting out affects nothing else — your account, your purchases, and your rights under the rest of these Terms are untouched, and we will not refuse or withdraw service because you opted out. If you opt out, disputes go to the courts named under Governing Law.
Where this does not apply. This section does not apply where the law that protects you does not allow it. If you are a consumer resident in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Australia, or anywhere else whose mandatory consumer law gives you a non-waivable right to bring a claim in your local courts or to use a local dispute-resolution body, that right stands and this section does not limit it.
This section survives the end of your account or these Terms. If any part of it is found unenforceable, that part is severed and the rest still applies; the individual-basis requirement is severed in the specific manner described above and not otherwise. Where this section and the general Severability section conflict, this section controls.
