Terms of service.

Last updated: [2026-02-11]

These Terms apply to purchases and engagements with Alignment Studios Oy (“we”, “us”). By purchasing a product/service, submitting payment, or accepting an invoice/proposal by email, you agree to these Terms.

1) Services covered

Alignment Studios Oy provides:

A) Image Consulting (Image Consulting for Alignment)
Narrative-driven visual storytelling applied to self-expression, impression, and presence. Work may include direction across appearance, expression, communication, and context (online and/or in-person).

B) Personal Branding
Personal branding for professionals, experts, entrepreneurs, leaders, and creatives (image, message, presence).

C) Brand Consulting for businesses, projects, and companies
Positioning, concept, narrative direction, visual identity, creative oversight, and execution support.

We may also offer written audits (e.g., image audits/brand audits), asynchronous support (messaging/voice notes), and calls/video calls where agreed.

Specific deliverables, scope, timelines, and channels are described on the relevant service/product page, checkout page, invoice, proposal, or agreed in writing.

2) Ordering & payment

Payment may be collected via Stripe and/or PayPal, or by invoice and bank transfer (SEPA) when agreed. Unless otherwise agreed in writing: full payment (or agreed deposit) is required before work begins, and booked time is confirmed only after payment clears. Prices are in EUR unless stated otherwise.

3) Audit-first structure (when applicable)

If a service is described as starting with a written audit or intake step, that audit/intake is required before any further scope, support, or calls are added. Any “access” (messaging/calls) is available only if included in the package or agreed in writing.

4) Delivery & communication

Deliverables may be provided via email and/or agreed channels (e.g., Telegram/WhatsApp), and may include written documents, voice notes, and calls/video calls if agreed. If a package includes ongoing support, the included availability, response tempo, and boundaries are defined on the product page or in writing.

5) Client materials, rights, and approvals

You confirm you have the rights to share any materials you provide (images, brand assets, references, files). You are responsible for providing requested inputs on time and reviewing deliverables and giving feedback within agreed timeframes. Delays in inputs/feedback can delay delivery dates.

6) Scope and revisions

Work is delivered according to the scope described on the service/product page or agreed in writing. Unless explicitly included, revisions are not included by default. If revisions are included, the number and format are defined on the product page, invoice, or proposal. Requests outside the agreed scope are quoted separately.

7) No guarantees

We provide strategic, creative, and consulting direction. Outcomes depend on implementation, context, and third parties. We do not guarantee specific business, audience, opportunity, or revenue results.

8) Intellectual property

All frameworks, methods, texts, and original materials we create remain our intellectual property unless explicitly transferred in writing. You receive a personal, non-transferable license to use deliverables for your own brand/project. No resale, redistribution, or publishing of our deliverables (including turning them into templates/products) without written permission.

9) Confidentiality

We treat your submitted materials and project information as confidential unless you explicitly approve otherwise.

10) Portfolio / publicity (only with permission)

We will not share your name, materials, or outcomes publicly without your explicit permission. If you approve, we may use limited excerpts (e.g., anonymized quotes or approved visuals) as agreed.

11) Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to the amount paid for the specific service/product giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages.

12) Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Finland. Disputes will be handled in Finnish courts unless mandatory consumer protections require otherwise.
