Terms of use

Last updated: date to be set on publication

For legal review before launch. Several things in these terms are genuinely open decisions and are marked as such rather than guessed: the operating entity, the governing law and jurisdiction, the ticket refund policy, delivery and returns windows, and prices. A ticketed event business cannot go live without those. The drafting below is written to be finished, not to be published as-is.

1. Who we are

This website is operated for Dare Remachinda ("we", "us", "the show"). Our full legal name, registered address and company or registration number are to be confirmed by the client.

2. Using this site

By using this site you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site. You must be 18 or over to buy anything, to donate, or to apply for the mentorship.

You agree not to misuse the site: not to attempt to break into it, not to scrape it in bulk, not to submit anything unlawful, abusive, threatening or misleading, and not to interfere with other people's use of it.

3. Events and tickets

Event details — dates, venues, running times and line-ups — can change. Where a change is material we will tell ticket holders using the contact details they gave us.

  • Buying: tickets bought on this site are sold at the price shown at the time of purchase. Tickets bought through our ticketing partner are governed by that partner's terms as well as these.
  • Refunds and transfers: policy to be confirmed by the client — this must be written down before tickets are sold, and shown before payment.
  • Admission: we may refuse admission, or ask someone to leave, for abusive or disruptive behaviour or where the venue's rules or the law require it.

4. Buying from the shop

Digital items

Digital products are delivered by email after payment. By buying a digital product you are asking us to supply it straight away, which means the usual right to change your mind within a set period may not apply once the download has been accessed. If a file is faulty or the link does not work, contact us and we will put it right.

Physical items

Physical items are posted. Delivery times, delivery areas, postage costs and the returns window are to be confirmed by the client and are set out on the shipping & returns page, which forms part of these terms. Nothing is currently on sale until those terms exist.

Prices and availability

Prices, currency and stock are as shown on the site at the time of order and are subject to change. Where something is out of stock we will tell you and refund you in full if we cannot supply it.

5. Donations

Donations are gifts to support the platform. They are not payment for a product or a service, they buy nothing in return, and they are not refundable by nature — though if you give in error, contact us and we will sort it out. If you are giving on behalf of an organisation, tell us so we can record it properly.

6. The mentorship

Our mentorship is mentorship. It is not therapy, not clinical counselling, not medical care and not legal advice. No panellist or mentor on this platform is presented as a qualified clinical counsellor, psychologist or psychiatrist.

  • Mentorship is guidance and accountability based on the experience and judgement of people with pastoral, legal or academic authority in their own fields. It is not a clinical service and no particular outcome is promised.
  • You should not rely on anything on this site, or said in a mentorship session, in place of advice from a qualified professional for your own situation.
  • Where we think your situation needs a doctor, a psychologist, a lawyer or the police, we will say so and may decline or stop the mentorship.
  • What you bring into a session is confidential, subject to the limits of the law and to safeguarding: if we believe someone is at risk of serious harm, we may have to act on that.
  • Cancellation, session terms and price are to be confirmed by the client and will be given to you in writing before you commit to anything or pay anything.

7. Content on the site, and the show's content elsewhere

The writing, layout and branding of this site belong to us or are used with permission. Episodes, recordings and event footage belong to the show or the people who made them. You may share links to our pages and quote short extracts with credit; you may not republish substantial parts, or use our material commercially, without permission.

Where we link out to another platform (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, a ticketing partner), that platform's own terms and privacy policy apply to what you do there. We do not control those platforms.

8. Things we cannot promise

The site is provided as it is. We try to keep it accurate and available, but we do not promise it will always be uninterrupted or error-free, and we do not promise that every statement made by a guest or panellist on the show or on this site is correct. Nothing on this site is professional advice for your individual situation.

We are not responsible for indirect losses arising from your use of the site. Nothing in these terms limits our liability where the law does not allow it to be limited — including for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud.

9. Reporting a problem

If something on this site is wrong, harmful, or about you and should not be there, tell us through the contact form and we will look at it promptly.

10. Changes to these terms

We may change these terms; the version that applies to your purchase or enquiry is the one published when you made it, and the date at the top will change when we update them.

11. Governing law

To be confirmed by the client — for example Zimbabwe, or England and Wales. This has to be decided before launch, because it determines which courts hear a dispute and which consumer protections apply. It is not something we should choose on the client's behalf.
