Agreement
These terms describe the basis on which Creative Athletes makes creativeathletes.com available to visitors.
By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. The terms apply to the website only. Engagements between Creative Athletes and a client organization are governed by separate written agreements that take precedence over this page.
Use of the website
The website is provided for general professional and informational use. You may browse the site, reference its content for personal or internal business purposes, and contact us through the channels we provide.
You may not use the site, its content, or its systems in a way that violates these terms, infringes the rights of others, or breaks any applicable law.
Informational content, not professional advice
Content on the site is published for information only. It reflects general perspectives from our practice. It is not legal, financial, regulatory, procurement, or business advice for any specific organization or situation.
You should not act on content from this site without confirming it against your own circumstances and, where appropriate, qualified advisors.
Inquiries, proposals, and engagements
Submitting an inquiry through the contact form does not create a client relationship. Discussions, proposals, statements of work, and estimates we share are non-binding until both sides sign a written agreement.
Material shared during the inquiry or proposal stage is handled with professional discretion. Where a more formal confidentiality arrangement is needed, we will agree it in writing before sensitive information is exchanged.
Intellectual property
The website, its written content, design system, images, layout, and underlying code are owned by Creative Athletes or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
You may not copy, modify, republish, distribute, or create derivative works from the site without prior written permission, except for reasonable personal or internal reference. Quoting limited content with attribution and a link back is permitted.
Logos, names, and other brand assets remain the property of their respective owners and may not be used to imply a relationship that does not exist.
Acceptable use
You agree not to use the website or related systems to:
- Violate any applicable law, regulation, or contractual obligation
- Interfere with the site, its security, its performance, or its availability
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the site, its data, or its infrastructure
- Submit content that is unlawful, harmful, deceptive, harassing, or infringing
- Misrepresent your identity, your organization, or your authority to act on its behalf
- Use the contact form for unsolicited sales outreach, recruiting blasts, or bulk marketing
Automated access, scraping, and AI training
Automated collection of content from the site is restricted. Without prior written consent, you may not:
- Crawl, scrape, or harvest content using bots or automated tools
- Bypass technical controls, rate limits, or access protections
- Use site content as input for training, fine-tuning, evaluation, or retrieval-augmented generation in commercial AI systems
- Generate or post submissions through automated systems
Standard indexing by recognized search engines is permitted unless otherwise indicated. Researchers and organizations with a legitimate interest in broader use should reach out through the contact form.
Third-party links
The site may link to third-party websites, articles, or resources for context. Those destinations are operated by others. We do not control them, do not endorse them, and are not responsible for their content, practices, or availability.
Disclaimer of warranties
The site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Creative Athletes disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement.
We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that the content will remain current.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Creative Athletes is not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, arising from or related to your use of the site.
Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Creative Athletes is established, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Engagement agreements may specify a different governing law for the engagement itself.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the site, our practice, or applicable obligations evolve. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
