Terms and Conditions

1. Who we are

This website and The Sprint programme are operated by:

Huw Davies trading as Premium Designer Academy
ABN 71 742 767 584
2a Ronald Avenue, Frankston South VIC 3199, Australia
Email: huw@thesprint.com.au

In these terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean Premium Designer Academy. "You" and "your" mean the person or entity using this website or purchasing the programme.

By using this website or enrolling in The Sprint, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not use the site or enrol.

2. What we sell

We sell one product: The Sprint, a four-month live coaching and training programme for working freelance designers, covering positioning, pricing, your LinkedIn profile, outreach and sales. It runs as a small group with one-to-one support, with rolling enrolment: you can start in any week.

Your enrolment includes weekly live group coaching calls for the four months, all of which are recorded; one-to-one time with Huw for the parts that are specific to your business; the full course modules with templates, scripts and resources; and access to our private Skool community, including call recordings, for as long as your enrolment is active.

After the four months you may continue month to month, if we offer it, at the continuation rate we confirm with you in writing at the time. Continuation is optional and is cancellable under clause 5.

We may adjust the call format, delivery platform or scheduling, provided you still receive a weekly live call and access to all core curriculum modules.

3. Price and payment

The Sprint costs USD $4,000 for the four-month programme, billed as USD $1,000 a month. You may instead pay USD $3,500 in full before you start. The option that applies to you is confirmed in writing before you pay anything.

Monthly. Four payments of USD $1,000. The first is due before you are given access. Each later payment falls due on the same date in each of the following three months, and is taken automatically by card.

Paid in full. USD $3,500, due before you are given access.

The four monthly payments are the price of the programme, not a subscription you can stop part way through. Enrolling commits you to all four. Any month-to-month continuation after that is billed monthly in advance at the rate confirmed with you, and can be cancelled under clause 5.

Payment is taken by card through Stripe. Your price is confirmed in writing before any payment is processed.

Some further points on payment. Payments must be made in the currency invoiced, and you are responsible for any bank, transfer or currency conversion fees, which cannot be deducted from the programme price. If a payment fails, access may be suspended until it is paid. Overdue balances accrue simple interest at two percent per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower.

GST: We are not currently registered for GST, so no GST is charged on the programme fee. If our registration status changes we will make that clear on this page and on your invoice.

4. How to enrol

You enrol by booking a free call through this website. If we both agree to go ahead, we confirm your start date and your payment option in writing and send your first invoice or payment link. Your place is confirmed once the first payment is received.

Before you pay, you will be given this document, our Refund and Cancellation Policy, and the full Service Agreement, which you sign electronically. By ticking "I agree", signing digitally, or paying for the programme, you confirm you have read, understood and accepted those terms.

Where there is any inconsistency between these Terms and Conditions and the signed Service Agreement, the Service Agreement prevails.

5. Refunds and cancellations

Our full policy is set out in the Refund and Cancellation Policy, which forms part of these terms.

In short: we do not refund for change of mind, because access to the calls, community and materials is granted immediately and the four-month programme is sold as a whole. Any month-to-month continuation after the programme can be cancelled by email at least seven days before the next billing date. Refunds are available if we end your enrolment without cause, and in any case where the Australian Consumer Law requires one. Please read the full policy before you enrol.

6. What the programme is, and what it is not

The Sprint is education and coaching. It is not a done-for-you agency service, and we do not perform the work on your behalf.

We do not guarantee specific results. Any revenue figures, client numbers, case studies or testimonials shown on this website or in our materials are illustrative examples of what particular participants achieved. They are not a promise or projection of what you will achieve. Outcomes depend on your own effort, experience, market conditions and factors outside our control.

You are expected to attend the calls, complete the assignments and implement the material in a timely way. Choosing not to engage does not entitle you to a refund or a credit.

Client conversation support. If you complete all the required action steps across the four months, attend the calls, and have not booked at least one sales call with a prospective client by the end of the programme, we will keep supporting you at no extra cost until you do. This covers the booking of a sales call only. It is not a guarantee that any conversation results in a paid engagement or any particular revenue outcome, and the remedy under this clause is extended support rather than a refund.

7. Your obligations

When you enrol, you agree to attend calls on time and complete the work set, to give us accurate information, to keep programme materials private and not share them outside the community, and to treat other members with respect and behave professionally.

8. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or end your access if you fail to pay when due, harass, abuse or disrupt the community, share our materials in breach of clause 9, or commit any other material breach that you do not fix within seven days of us telling you about it in writing.

If we end your access because of your breach, fees already paid are not refundable. If we end it without cause, you receive a pro-rata refund for the unused part of the period you have paid for.

9. Intellectual property

Everything we produce for the programme, including the course modules, recordings, templates, scripts, frameworks and written materials, remains our property. We grant you a revocable, non-transferable licence to use it for your own business. You must not copy, sell, publish or redistribute it without our written consent.

The content of this website, including text, design and graphics, is likewise our property or used under licence.

10. Recordings and privacy

Group calls are recorded and stored so that participants can catch up and so we can improve the programme. By joining a call you consent to being recorded. You are welcome to keep your camera off and participate through the chat instead.

We handle personal information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and our privacy policy.

We may reference your results in our marketing, including revenue gains, screenshots and testimonials, but only where you have given us explicit consent for that specific use by email or on a recording. You can withdraw consent for future use at any time by emailing us. Withdrawal does not undo material already published, though we will make reasonable efforts to remove it from future distribution. We will not disclose sensitive financial information without your written approval.

11. Consumer guarantees

Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies those guarantees or any other right you have under mandatory consumer protection law. If you are purchasing from outside Australia, the mandatory consumer protections of your own jurisdiction apply in the same way.

12. Disclaimers and liability

Other than the statutory guarantees described above, the programme is provided on an "as is" basis.

To the fullest extent the law allows, our total liability under these terms is limited to the amount you paid for the programme, and we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential loss.

Neither party is liable for a delay or failure caused by events outside their reasonable control, other than obligations to pay money. Affected obligations are paused for the duration of the event and deadlines extend accordingly.

13. Resolving a dispute

If a problem arises, tell us in writing at huw@thesprint.com.au. We will meet, virtually or in person, within fourteen days to work through it in good faith. If it is still unresolved thirty days later, either of us may pursue external remedies through a court or tribunal.

Please raise any payment issue with us before going to your bank or card issuer. Starting a chargeback without first following this process is a breach of these terms, and we reserve the right to recover the amount and any associated fees.

14. General

These terms, together with the Refund and Cancellation Policy and your signed Service Agreement, are the entire agreement between us. Any change or waiver must be in writing, and email is sufficient.

If any part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the rest continues to apply in full. A delay in enforcing a right does not waive it.

We may update these terms from time to time. The version in force is the one published on this page on the date you enrol.

15. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. Both parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria.
