Terms, Disclaimer
& Privacy

Last updated: September 2026. These terms apply to the 30-Day Storytelling Challenge, Your Mind's Story Playbook (free and full editions), the 30-Day Story & Camera Training, 300 Story Ideas for Any Industry, and every related page, video, message and download (together, the "Materials") offered by Miklos Clarke and Vinta Creative Agency ("we," "us"). By joining the challenge, signing up, buying, or using the Materials, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use them.

1. Educational purposes only

The Materials are for general education and inspiration. They are not legal, tax, financial, accounting, medical, mental-health or other professional advice. Talk to a qualified professional before making decisions that affect your business, money or wellbeing.

2. No guarantee of results (earnings disclaimer)

We do not promise or guarantee any number of followers, views, leads, clients, sales, income or other results. Stories, examples, case studies, numbers and testimonials show individual experiences or are simplified for teaching. Some examples are illustrative and not real data. They are not typical and are not a promise that you will get the same or any results. Your results depend on your own effort, skills, market, timing, platform rules and many other things outside our control.

3. You are responsible for your choices

You choose what to film, post, say, spend and do. You're responsible for your content and for following the laws and platform rules that apply to you, including advertising, privacy, consumer-protection, copyright and endorsement (FTC) rules. Only film people who have agreed to be filmed, and never share anyone's private information. You join and take part at your own risk.

4. Personal-use license: no copying, sharing or resale

All Materials are owned by Miklos Clarke / Vinta Creative Agency and are protected by copyright and other laws. When you sign up or buy, you get a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to view the Materials for your own use. You may not copy, download, screenshot, record, print, share, post, sell, resell, rent, sublicense, translate, adapt, or distribute any part of the Materials, share your access link or login, or use them to create a competing product, without our written permission. Copies are watermarked with your details. We may end your access at any time if we believe you have broken these terms, and we may take legal action to protect our work. The scripts in 300 Story Ideas may be adapted and filmed by you for your own social media, but the collection itself may not be republished or sold.

5. Subscription, billing and cancellation

The 30-Day Storytelling Challenge membership is a recurring monthly subscription. It starts with a 7-day free trial; we collect a valid payment method up front, but you are not charged during the trial. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, your card is automatically charged the then-current membership price (currently $5) on day 8, and again every month after that, until you cancel. You can cancel any time before your next billing date to avoid future charges — email vintacreativeagency@gmail.com and we'll process it, or use the manage-subscription link in your payment receipt. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you keep whatever you've already unlocked until then. Because each billing period grants immediate access to that period's content, completed charges are non-refundable except where the law requires otherwise; if something isn't working, email us first and we'll make it right. Payments and subscription management are handled by Stripe, our payment processor, under its own terms.

6. The ads management discount

Once your first paid month actually goes through — meaning your 7-day free trial has converted into a real, successful charge, not just started — we issue a one-time code for 50% off Vinta Creative Agency's ads-management fee for your first month of that service. The discount applies to Vinta's management fee only. It does not cover ad spend paid to platforms such as Meta, or any other service. After that discounted first invoice, ads management continues at Vinta's standard rate (currently $1,500/month) unless you cancel. The discount requires a signed service agreement and availability, is one per customer or business, can't be combined with other offers, has no cash value and can't be transferred. Vinta may change or end the offer at any time, but will honor codes already issued to members whose first paid month has already been charged. Final terms are confirmed in writing before any work starts.

7. Challenge, wall and showcase

Joining the challenge, being added to the sticky-note wall, and being featured in the showcase are free and at our discretion. When you submit a video, photo, name, handle, comment or testimonial, you confirm you own it or have permission to share it, and you give us a free, worldwide, non-exclusive license to show, edit, crop and share it on our website, social media and marketing. You can ask us to remove it at any time by emailing us, and we'll remove it from our website within a reasonable time.

8. Third-party platforms

The challenge uses Instagram, Meta, ManyChat, YouTube, Vimeo, Netlify, payment providers and other services we don't control. We're not responsible for their availability, rules, fees, account actions or content. Following us on Instagram is a condition of receiving the free library link, and is not an endorsement by Instagram or Meta.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the Materials are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent allowed by law, Miklos Clarke, Vinta Creative Agency and their team, contractors and partners are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any lost profits, revenue, data, followers, accounts or business opportunities, arising from or related to the Materials or the challenge. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us for the Materials in the 12 months before the claim, or $5 if you paid nothing. Some places don't allow certain limits, so some of these may not apply to you.

You take part in the challenge, the group chat, the showcase and any other community feature entirely at your own risk. We are not responsible for, and are not liable for, the conduct, messages, content or actions of any other member, participant or third party, including anything said in the group chat, submitted in a video, comment or upload, or exchanged between members outside our platform. We do not run background checks on members and cannot guarantee the identity, age or intentions of anyone else who joins. If another member's conduct makes you uncomfortable or concerns you, stop engaging, do not meet anyone in person, and report it immediately to vintacreativeagency@gmail.com.

10. Indemnity

You agree to defend and hold harmless Miklos Clarke and Vinta Creative Agency from claims, losses and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that come from your content, your use of the Materials, or your breaking these terms or the law.

11. Disputes: talk first, then individual arbitration

If you have a concern, email us first so we can try to fix it within 30 days. If we can't, you and we agree that any dispute will be resolved by final, binding arbitration on an individual basis, and not in a class action, class arbitration or jury trial, except that either side may bring an eligible claim in small-claims court or ask a court to stop copyright or intellectual-property misuse. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, USA. If any part of these terms can't be enforced, the rest still applies.

12. Privacy

When you sign up we collect your name, email, phone number and Instagram handle, and we keep basic progress information in your browser. We use this to give you access, send challenge updates, and, if you opt in, send offers by email or text. Message and data rates may apply; reply STOP to opt out of texts or use the unsubscribe link in emails. We don't sell your personal information. Form submissions are stored by our website host (Netlify), and payment, billing and subscription details are processed and stored by Stripe, our payment processor. You can ask us to see, correct or delete your information by emailing vintacreativeagency@gmail.com.

13. Age & eligibility

The challenge, the group chat, the showcase, video and photo submissions, and every other Vinta Creative Agency community feature are for people 18 years of age or older only. There is no exception for parental consent or supervision: you must be 18 or older yourself to sign up, join the chat, appear on camera, submit a video or photo, or otherwise take part. By joining, you confirm you are at least 18. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 18, we will remove the account and any associated content without notice. If you believe a minor is using the Materials or any community feature, please tell us immediately at vintacreativeagency@gmail.com so we can act.

14. Community safety & zero tolerance for predatory behavior

We have a zero-tolerance policy for harassment, sexual content or solicitation, grooming, exploitation, or any predatory, threatening or abusive behavior directed at any person, in the group chat, in video or photo submissions, in comments, in direct messages arising from the community, or anywhere else connected to the Materials. This applies to every participant, with no exception.

Prohibited conduct includes (without limitation): contacting or attempting to contact another member outside the platform without their consent; asking a member for private photos, video, contact details or meetings; any sexual, romantic or exploitative approach directed at another member; impersonating someone else or misrepresenting your age or identity; bullying, threats or hate speech; and uploading or sharing content that sexualizes, endangers or exploits any person.

We may monitor, moderate and remove any content or account, at our sole discretion and without notice, that we believe violates this policy or these terms. We will immediately terminate the account of anyone who violates this policy, and we reserve the right to report suspected exploitation, abuse or predatory conduct — including anything that appears to involve a minor — to law enforcement and, where applicable, to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) or an equivalent authority, and to cooperate fully with any resulting investigation.

If you experience or witness any of this behavior, stop engaging, do not agree to meet anyone in person, preserve any evidence (screenshots, usernames, messages), and report it right away to vintacreativeagency@gmail.com. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, contact local law enforcement (911 in the U.S.) first.

15. Changes and contact

We may update these terms, and the date at the top will change when we do. Questions: vintacreativeagency@gmail.com · Instagram @vinta.media.
