Terms and Conditions


The Gist

We (just Said Bouziane at time of writing) are on a mission to make the world a better place for people who don’t quite fit in. Oddballs, ‘mad’ folks etc. How? By making helpful things for the people who help them. We hope you love our products, services and resources, from blog posts to Notion templates, and all the things yet-to-come that haven’t been dreamed of, let alone produced and released and everything in between.

By using the website and subsites and accessing products, services and resources within (whether paid, free or pay-what-you-want) you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions of Use and that you’re responsible for compliance with any applicable local laws as well as taking full responsibility for your wellbeing while engaging in potentially triggering exercises or content (such as reflective practice or meditation). If you don’t agree, don’t use the website, products, services or resources.

Lame this has to exist, but here we are. Hopefully it serves to protect what we’re trying to build.

We do take this whole… ‘changing the world’ thing quite seriously.
