Terms and Conditions

Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: October 19, 2026

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of websites, pages, masterclasses, forms, scheduling tools, digital resources, products, services, communities, and educational programs operated by Foundation First Brass Academy, LLC (“FFBA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

“You” and “your” refer to the visitor, registrant, applicant, purchaser, member, or participant using our websites or services.

By accessing our websites, submitting a form, scheduling a consultation, purchasing a product or service, or participating in a program, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

1. Educational Purpose

Our websites, masterclasses, methods, resources, coaching, community discussions, and programs are offered for educational and informational purposes.

We do not guarantee any particular musical, professional, financial, physical, or performance result. Progress varies based on factors including experience, health, practice habits, participation, consistency, and individual circumstances.

Nothing provided through our websites or programs is medical advice or a substitute for evaluation or treatment by a qualified healthcare professional. Stop any exercise that causes pain, dizziness, injury, or unusual physical distress and seek appropriate professional guidance.

2. Eligibility and Accurate Information

You agree to provide complete, accurate, and current information when registering, applying, scheduling, purchasing, or creating an account.

You must be at least 18 years old to purchase a program or enter into a paid agreement unless a parent or legal guardian completes or approves the transaction on your behalf.

Participants under 18 may be required to involve a parent or legal guardian in enrollment, payment, or other program-related decisions.

3. Consultation and Strategy Sessions

Foundation First consultations and strategy sessions are intended to discuss your playing, goals, challenges, and possible next steps.

They are not private playing lessons unless expressly identified as such and do not guarantee admission to Foundation First Brass Academy.

Please schedule only if you intend to attend. If something unexpected prevents you from attending, contact us as soon as reasonably possible.

We reserve the right to decline, cancel, or reschedule a session when appropriate.

4. Program Applications and Enrollment

Submitting an application or participating in a consultation does not guarantee acceptance into Foundation First Brass Academy.

Enrollment may require a separate written enrollment agreement, payment authorization, or program-specific terms.

If program-specific written terms conflict with these general Terms and Conditions, the program-specific agreement will control.

5. Purchases and Payments

Prices, payment schedules, included services, and applicable fees will be disclosed before purchase.

You agree to provide valid payment information and authorize charges according to the payment plan you select.

If a payment fails or becomes overdue, access to paid materials, coaching, community services, or other program benefits may be paused until the account is brought current.

Payments may be processed by independent third-party payment providers. Their own terms and privacy policies may apply.

6. Refunds and Cancellations

Refund and cancellation terms may differ by product, service, event, membership, or educational program.

The applicable terms may be stated on a purchase page, checkout page, enrollment agreement, invoice, or other written offer.

Unless a specific written refund policy states otherwise, purchases are not automatically refundable simply because a participant changes their mind, does not attend, or does not fully use the purchased service.

Nothing in these Terms limits any cancellation, refund, or consumer-protection right that cannot legally be waived.

7. SMS and Text Messaging

When you provide your mobile telephone number, you may separately choose whether to receive informational text messages, marketing or promotional text messages, or both.

Informational messages may include registration confirmations, appointment reminders, scheduling updates, consultation follow-up, and program-related communications.

Marketing or promotional messages may include information about Foundation First Brass Academy programs, events, offers, and educational resources.

Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply. Wireless carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

You may opt out at any time by replying STOP. For assistance, reply HELP.

Consent to receive marketing or promotional text messages is not a condition of purchase.

Providing a telephone number alone does not constitute consent to receive SMS marketing messages.

Your mobile information and SMS consent will not be sold, rented, or shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

8. Email Communications

If you provide your email address, we may send requested information, registration confirmations, appointment communications, service-related information, and, where permitted, promotional messages.

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link included in those communications.

Service-related or transactional emails may still be sent when reasonably necessary to provide a requested service or administer an existing relationship.

9. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, all website content and program materials, including text, videos, audio recordings, accompaniment tracks, exercises, methods, graphics, logos, downloads, course materials, presentations, and written resources, are owned by or licensed to Foundation First Brass Academy, LLC and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

You receive a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access purchased or freely provided materials for your own individual educational use.

You may not, without prior written permission:

  • Copy or distribute materials to others

  • Share account credentials or member-only access

  • Upload materials to another website, platform, or file-sharing service

  • Sell, sublicense, republish, or commercially exploit materials

  • Remove copyright, trademark, or ownership notices

  • Record or distribute private sessions, live calls, or community content

  • Create substantially derivative teaching products from protected materials

10. Testimonials and Participant Contributions

You retain ownership of original material you submit to us.

Submitting a question, application, message, recording, testimonial, photograph, video, or other material does not automatically give us unrestricted commercial ownership of it.

We will seek appropriate permission before publicly using an identifiable testimonial, image, recording, or participant story for promotional purposes unless permission has already been clearly provided through a separate release or agreement.

You may not submit material that you do not own or have permission to share.

11. Community Standards

Some programs may include access to an online community, group, live call, or collaborative space.

Participants agree to treat other members respectfully, protect the privacy of other participants, avoid harassment or abusive behavior, refrain from unauthorized solicitation or spam, respect copyrights and other intellectual-property rights, and avoid disrupting sessions or community activities.

We may remove content, restrict participation, suspend access, or terminate membership when conduct materially harms the community, violates these Terms, infringes another person’s rights, or interferes with the program.

12. Accounts and Passwords

You are responsible for protecting your login credentials and for activity conducted through your account.

Notify us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization.

We may suspend access when reasonably necessary to protect an account, participant, program, or system.

13. Third-Party Services and Links

Our websites and services may use or link to third-party platforms for hosting, email, scheduling, payments, video meetings, community access, analytics, or other business functions.

We do not control and are not responsible for the availability, content, security, or independent practices of third-party services.

Your use of those services may also be governed by their respective terms and privacy policies.

14. Website and Service Availability

We work to keep our websites and services functioning but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.

We may modify, suspend, replace, or discontinue website features, content, schedules, or delivery platforms when reasonably necessary.

If a material change affects an existing paid commitment, we will make reasonable efforts to provide an appropriate alternative.

15. No Guarantee of Results

Testimonials, examples, and participant experiences are not promises that every participant will achieve the same outcome.

Your results depend substantially on your own participation, preparation, practice, consistency, prior experience, physical circumstances, and implementation.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Foundation First Brass Academy, LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of, or inability to use, our websites, materials, products, programs, or third-party platforms.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability concerning a paid product or service will not exceed the amount you paid us for the specific product or service giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded.

17. Prohibited Conduct

You may not use our websites or services for unlawful or fraudulent purposes, attempt unauthorized access to accounts or protected content, introduce malware, impersonate another person, infringe intellectual-property or privacy rights, scrape or systematically extract protected content, or misrepresent an affiliation, endorsement, or certification.

18. Feedback and Reviews

You are welcome to provide honest feedback and reviews.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to prohibit or penalize a truthful consumer review or lawful expression of opinion.

19. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate access when you materially breach these Terms, fail to make required payments, misuse protected materials, harm other participants, or create a legitimate security or legal risk.

Termination does not eliminate payment obligations already incurred or provisions that reasonably survive termination.

20. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Before filing a formal claim, both parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve the matter informally through written communication.

21. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms periodically.

The current version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.

Material changes will apply prospectively unless otherwise required by law.
