Welcome to Creations & Distractions ("we", "us", or "our"). These Terms and Conditions govern your purchase of and access to our online embroidery courses, digital downloads, and website located at www.creations-distractions.com.

​

By enrolling in a course, purchasing digital materials, or using our website, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully before making a purchase.

​

1. General Enrolment and Access

 

Account Responsibility: When you create an account or enrol in a course, you agree to provide accurate and complete information. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure.

​

Personal Use Only: Your enrolment grants you a personal, individual licence to access the course. Sharing login details or granting course access to third parties is strictly prohibited.

​

2. Intellectual Property and Trademarks

Ownership of Materials: All course content, videos, text, graphics, downloadable PDFs, patterns, and stitch cards provided by Creations & Distractions are protected by copyright and intellectual property laws.

​

Proprietary Terminology: The phrase "The Essential Six™" and associated course frameworks are proprietary brand identifiers of Creations & Distractions.

​

Permitted Use: Enrolling in a course or purchasing a digital download grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and print materials for personal, non-commercial use only.

​

Restrictions: You may not:

Copy, redistribute, resell, or share any course PDFs, patterns, or videos.

Teach, commercialise, or publish courses using "The Essential Six™" terminology, framework, or lesson structure without prior written permission.

Claim our designs, patterns, or educational materials as your own.

(Note: You are always welcome to sell physical finished items you hand-stitch using our patterns for personal hobby sales, provided credit is given to Creations & Distractions as the pattern designer.)

​

3. Payments, Pricing, and Taxes

Pricing: All prices listed on our website are in GBP and include applicable taxes unless stated otherwise.

​

Payment Terms: Full payment is required at checkout prior to accessing course content or downloading materials.

Changes: We reserve the right to modify course prices or discount offers at any time, but price changes will not affect existing enrolments.

​

4. Refunds and Cancellations (Digital Content)

Because our courses provide immediate access to digital content, video lessons, and downloadable files:

​

Digital Downloads & Instant Access: By completing your purchase, you consent to immediate access to the digital course materials. You acknowledge that you waive your right to a standard cooling-off refund period once content access or file downloading has commenced.

​

Satisfaction Support: If you encounter technical issues or are unhappy with your experience, please contact us at welcome@creations-distractions.com within 7 days of purchase so we can help resolve the issue.

​

5. Website Use and Conduct

Community Guidelines: If our course includes interactive elements (e.g., comment sections, forums, or student galleries), you agree to interact respectfully. We reserve the right to remove inappropriate content or revoke access without a refund for abusive behaviour.

​

Availability: We strive to keep course platform servers running smoothly, but we are not liable for temporary downtime due to maintenance or third-party hosting service outages.

​

6. Limitation of Liability

Our courses and materials are provided for educational and creative enjoyment purposes. While we aim to provide an inspiring learning experience, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential losses resulting from your use of our website, materials, or tools.
