Last updated: May 28, 2026
These Terms govern your access to the StoryClose website and any consulting engagements entered into with StoryClose ("we", "our", "us"). By using our site or services, you agree to these Terms. This document is a template and should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before publication.
Acceptance of Terms
Accessing or using the site, or entering into an engagement letter with us, constitutes acceptance of these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site or engage our services.
Services
StoryClose provides educational acquisition consultancy services, including positioning, The Narrative Complete System development, and related strategic work. Specific scope, deliverables, and timelines are defined in a separate engagement letter or statement of work.
Engagement & Payment
Fees, payment terms, and engagement-specific obligations are set out in your engagement letter. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are payable on the terms stated in that document.
Intellectual Property
Frameworks, methodologies, templates, and pre-existing materials remain the property of StoryClose. Final deliverables produced specifically for a client are licensed or assigned per the relevant engagement letter.
Confidentiality
Both parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of non-public information exchanged during the engagement and to use such information solely for the purpose of performing or receiving the services.
Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for providing timely access to relevant information, subject-matter experts, and approvals required for StoryClose to perform the services. Delays may impact agreed timelines.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, StoryClose's aggregate liability arising out of or related to the services or these Terms is limited to the fees paid for the specific engagement giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
Termination
Either party may terminate an engagement in accordance with the termination terms in the applicable engagement letter. Provisions intended to survive termination (confidentiality, IP, liability) will continue to apply.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction stated in your engagement letter, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated "Last updated" date.
