Last updated: 11 August 2026. These terms apply to the A Creative Block website and to services agreed with A Creative Block. Booking or using a service means accepting the terms supplied for that service.
1. Who operates A Creative Block?
A Creative Block is operated by [FULL LEGAL NAME], an independent professional based in Portugal. NIF / tax number: [NIF / TAX NUMBER]. Contact: hello@acreativeblock.com.
2. Services and scope
Services may include coaching, reflection, facilitation, creative consulting, project support, workshops, courses and related resources. The specific scope, format, timing, price and deliverables are those confirmed in writing before booking.
Coaching supports reflection, awareness and client-led action. Creative consulting may include direct analysis, feedback, ideas, frameworks or practical project guidance. Neither is psychotherapy, medical treatment, legal, financial, accounting or investment advice. We may recommend appropriate specialist support where a need falls outside our competence or scope.
3. Client responsibilities
You agree to provide accurate relevant information, participate in good faith, communicate constraints and make your own decisions. You remain responsible for your wellbeing, project, deadlines, collaborators, compliance, finances and implementation.
4. Client decisions, projects and outcomes
All decisions remain the sole responsibility of the client. A Creative Block does not make business, financial, investment, legal, medical or other professional decisions on your behalf. Discussion of an idea, strategy, project or possible course of action is not a recommendation, endorsement or guarantee that you should pursue it.
You are responsible for independently assessing risk and, where appropriate, obtaining advice from qualified legal, financial, accounting, medical or other professionals before acting. We do not guarantee success, profitability, funding, completion, commercial performance, creative reception or any other outcome of a project, business, career decision or venture.
5. Fees, payment, cancellation and refunds
Prices and any applicable taxes are shown or confirmed before purchase. Payment timing and accepted methods will be stated at booking. The cancellation, rescheduling and refund terms shown before booking form part of the agreement for that service. If no specific term has been supplied, contact us before booking so it can be confirmed in writing.
Nothing in these terms removes any mandatory cancellation, refund or consumer right that applies under Portuguese or EU law.
6. Confidentiality and privacy
We treat information shared during services with care and confidentiality, subject to legal obligations, safety concerns, consented supervision or administration needed to deliver the service. Personal data is handled under our Privacy Policy.
7. Intellectual property
You retain ownership of your pre-existing materials, ideas and creative work. A Creative Block retains ownership of its pre-existing methods, frameworks, exercises, teaching materials, branding and resources. Unless agreed otherwise, you may use materials supplied to you for your own personal or internal business purposes, but may not reproduce, resell, teach, publish or distribute them commercially.
Feedback, coaching or consulting does not transfer ownership of your project to A Creative Block and does not make A Creative Block a partner, director, employee, fiduciary or co-author unless a separate written agreement explicitly says so.
8. Workshops, groups and third parties
Participants must respect the privacy, work and intellectual property of others. We cannot guarantee the conduct or confidentiality of other participants. Organisational clients are responsible for authority to share information and enrol participants.
9. Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, A Creative Block is not responsible for indirect or consequential loss, lost profit, investment loss, missed opportunity, project failure or decisions made after or in connection with the services. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability for fraud or other mandatory legal responsibility.
10. Website and resources
Website content is general information, not personalised professional advice. We aim for accuracy but do not promise that every page is complete, current or error-free. External links are provided for convenience and are not controlled or endorsed by us.
11. Ending services
Either party may end ongoing work in accordance with the booking agreement. We may pause or end a service for non-payment, abusive conduct, conflicts of interest, safety concerns or where the work is outside scope, while respecting mandatory rights and fees already properly due.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by Portuguese law, without removing any mandatory protections available to a consumer. The parties should first try to resolve concerns directly and in good faith before using formal remedies.
