Terms of Service

Effective Date: July 8, 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms” or “Agreement”) govern your access to and use of herocasting.studio, including any related websites, pages, forms, content, communications, products, services, creative offerings, proposals, and deliverables provided through HeroCasting (collectively, the “Services”).

HeroCasting is a brand and service operated by The Maximizers LLC (“The Maximizers,” “HeroCasting,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the Website or Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are using the Website or Services on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Website or Services.

1. Our Services

HeroCasting provides creative services related to brand character development and related marketing, branding, animation, design, and content work. Services may include, but are not limited to:

  • Brand character strategy and concept development
  • Character naming, positioning, and personality development
  • Character design, illustration, and visual development
  • Animated character concepts, assets, and production
  • Scripts, story ideas, campaign concepts, and creative direction
  • Website, advertising, social media, video, or marketing-related creative materials
  • Consulting, planning, production, and related creative services

Specific services, deliverables, timelines, fees, revision terms, ownership terms, and usage rights may be described in a separate proposal, statement of work, invoice, written agreement, or project communication. If there is a conflict between these Terms and a signed written agreement between you and The Maximizers LLC, the signed written agreement will control for that specific project.

2. Website Use

You agree to use the Website and Services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

  • Use the Website or Services in a way that violates any applicable law or regulation
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Website, servers, systems, or data
  • Interfere with or disrupt the operation of the Website or Services
  • Copy, scrape, reproduce, or misuse Website content without permission
  • Use the Website or Services to transmit harmful, deceptive, infringing, or unlawful material
  • Misrepresent your identity, authority, company affiliation, or project rights

3. Proposals, Estimates, and Project Scope

Any proposal, estimate, or project description we provide is based on the information available at the time it is prepared. Unless otherwise stated in writing, proposals and estimates are not binding until accepted by both parties and may be subject to change if project scope, requirements, assumptions, schedule, or deliverables change.

Work outside the agreed scope may require additional fees, timeline adjustments, or a separate written approval. We reserve the right to decline work that is outside the agreed scope or inconsistent with our business, creative, legal, or ethical standards.

4. Payments and Billing

Fees, payment schedules, deposits, milestones, and payment methods will be described in the applicable proposal, invoice, checkout page, written agreement, or project communication.

Unless otherwise stated in writing:

  • Deposits, retainers, and upfront payments may be required before work begins.
  • Payments are due according to the schedule stated in the applicable invoice, proposal, or agreement.
  • Late payments may delay work, delivery, revisions, or transfer of final files and usage rights.
  • We may pause or suspend Services if payment is overdue.
  • You are responsible for any applicable taxes, fees, or charges associated with your purchase or project.

We reserve the right to change pricing, service offerings, and availability at any time, but pricing changes will not affect an active project already accepted by both parties unless the scope or project terms change.

5. Cancellations, Refunds, and Paused Projects

Cancellation and refund terms may vary by project and will be governed by the applicable proposal, invoice, written agreement, or project communication.

Unless otherwise stated in writing, payments for creative strategy, concepting, design, production, consulting, planning, or other work already performed are non-refundable. If a project is cancelled, paused, delayed, or abandoned by the client, the client remains responsible for payment for all work completed, time incurred, costs committed, and expenses incurred up to the date of cancellation or pause.

If you become unresponsive or fail to provide needed feedback, approvals, assets, or payments, we may pause the project and adjust timelines. Restarting a paused project may require a revised schedule, updated scope, or additional fees.

6. Revisions and Approvals

Revision rounds, review periods, and approval processes may be described in the applicable proposal or project agreement. Unless otherwise stated in writing, revisions are intended to refine work within the agreed creative direction and scope, not to create an entirely new concept, direction, or deliverable.

Client approvals may be requested at various stages of a project. Once a concept, design, script, direction, asset, or deliverable is approved, later changes may require additional fees and timeline adjustments.

7. Client Responsibilities

You agree to provide accurate, complete, and timely information, feedback, approvals, access, materials, and decisions needed for us to perform the Services.

You are responsible for ensuring that any materials you provide to us, including logos, artwork, images, video, audio, text, brand assets, references, trademarks, product information, customer information, or other content, are owned by you or properly licensed for use in the project.

You are also responsible for reviewing deliverables for accuracy, legal compliance, brand compliance, factual claims, required disclosures, industry rules, and suitability for your intended use.

8. Client-Provided Materials

You retain ownership of materials you provide to us, subject to any rights you grant us to use those materials in connection with the Services.

By providing materials to us, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, display, and create derivative works from those materials solely as reasonably necessary to evaluate, develop, produce, revise, and deliver the Services.

You represent and warrant that your materials do not infringe, violate, or misappropriate any third-party rights and that you have all necessary rights and permissions to provide them to us for use in the Services.

9. Intellectual Property and Ownership

Ownership of creative work, final deliverables, source files, working files, usage rights, and intellectual property rights will be governed by the applicable proposal, invoice, written agreement, or project communication.

Unless otherwise stated in a signed written agreement:

  • We retain ownership of our pre-existing materials, methods, processes, templates, concepts, tools, know-how, drafts, working files, and internal creative materials.
  • You receive rights to use the final approved deliverables for the purposes described in the applicable project scope after full payment has been received.
  • Unapproved concepts, drafts, alternate directions, unused ideas, sketches, tests, and exploratory work remain owned by us and may not be used without our written permission.
  • Source files, layered files, raw files, project files, and editable working files are not included unless expressly stated in writing.
  • No ownership rights transfer until all amounts due for the applicable project have been paid in full.

Because HeroCasting creates brand characters and related creative assets, ownership and usage rights are especially important. Any expanded rights, exclusivity, trademark assignment, copyright assignment, buyout, source-file delivery, or long-term usage rights should be clearly stated in a written agreement.

10. Portfolio and Promotional Use

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, you grant us permission to reference your company name, brand name, project type, general project description, and approved final work in our portfolio, case studies, presentations, social media, marketing materials, proposals, and business development efforts.

If a project is confidential or subject to launch timing restrictions, please notify us in writing before the project begins so we can address those requirements in the project agreement.

11. Third-Party Materials, Tools, and Platforms

Some projects may involve third-party tools, platforms, stock assets, fonts, plugins, software, artificial intelligence tools, hosting services, advertising platforms, social media platforms, production vendors, or other resources.

Third-party materials may be subject to separate licenses, restrictions, availability, fees, or terms. You are responsible for complying with any third-party terms that apply to your use of final deliverables, platforms, or materials.

12. Artificial Intelligence and Technology-Assisted Creative Work

We may use digital tools, production software, automation, artificial intelligence, generative tools, or other technology-assisted workflows as part of our creative process where appropriate.

Unless otherwise stated in writing, technology-assisted outputs may be used as part of research, ideation, drafting, visualization, production, refinement, or internal workflow. Final deliverables are subject to the ownership and usage terms described in the applicable project agreement.

You are responsible for determining whether final deliverables are suitable for your intended legal, commercial, advertising, trademark, copyright, regulatory, or business use.

13. Accuracy of Information

We aim to provide accurate information on the Website, but the Website may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies, omissions, outdated information, or incomplete descriptions. We reserve the right to correct errors, update information, change service descriptions, and modify or discontinue offerings at any time without prior notice.

14. No Guaranteed Results

We may provide creative recommendations, strategy, branding concepts, character development, marketing ideas, advertising concepts, or related guidance. However, we do not guarantee any specific business outcome, revenue increase, advertising performance, audience response, search ranking, conversion rate, brand awareness result, or return on investment.

You understand that results depend on many factors outside our control, including your market, offer, budget, audience, media placement, sales process, implementation, timing, competition, and ongoing business decisions.

16. Links to Other Resources

The Website and Services may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, applications, or resources. We are not responsible for the content, policies, availability, accuracy, or practices of third-party resources. Your use of third-party resources is at your own risk.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Website and Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We disclaim all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Website, Services, or these Terms will not exceed the amount you paid to us for the specific Services giving rise to the claim during the three months preceding the event giving rise to liability, or one hundred dollars ($100), whichever is greater.

19. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless The Maximizers LLC, HeroCasting, and their owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, partners, vendors, suppliers, and licensors from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to:

During a project, either party may share non-public business, creative, technical, financial, strategic, or proprietary information. Each party agrees to use reasonable care to protect confidential information and to use it only for purposes related to the Services.

Confidential information does not include information that is publicly available, already known without restriction, independently developed, or lawfully received from another source.

21. Termination

We may suspend or terminate access to the Website or Services if you violate these Terms, fail to make required payments, misuse the Services, infringe third-party rights, engage in unlawful conduct, or create legal, operational, reputational, or security risk.

Sections relating to payments, intellectual property, ownership, confidentiality, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and any provisions that by their nature should survive termination will survive termination.

These Terms and any disputes arising out of or related to the Website or Services will be governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflict of law principles, unless otherwise required by applicable law or stated in a separate written agreement.
