Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern the website at www.fudohub.com ("Website") and the services expressly offered under these Terms by Fudo Hub LLC ("Fudo Hub," "we," "us," or "our"). They explain what customers purchase, how payments and cancellations are handled, and the rights and responsibilities associated with our publications, promotional services, and other offerings.
1. Scope and acceptance
Fudo Hub is an independent media and creative company whose brands include Photographize, Forks N' Roses, and Froth. References to these brands identify the applicable platform; the contracting party is Fudo Hub LLC unless the order expressly identifies another legal entity.
You accept these Terms by affirmatively agreeing to them through a checkout, signed agreement, submission form, or written acceptance of an offer that clearly incorporates these Terms and makes them available before acceptance. A link first provided after purchase does not, by itself, change an existing agreement. Merely visiting the Website does not authorize a charge, enroll you in a subscription, or license your work to us.
To purchase a service or grant publication rights, you must be at least 18 and legally able to enter into the agreement, or have an authorized parent or guardian enter into it on your behalf. If you act for a business or another rights holder, you represent that you have authority to bind that party.
Mandatory rights under applicable law take priority over these Terms. A "consumer" means a person who qualifies for consumer protection under the applicable law; a person is not automatically a business customer merely because they are an artist or purchase a promotional service.
2. Services and your order
Our services may include editorial evaluation, print and digital publication, artist or business profiles, portfolio hosting, social media promotion, advertising, sponsorships, memberships, subscriptions, design, and related creative services ("Services").
Your accepted offer, order form, checkout description, or written service agreement ("Order") identifies what you are purchasing. As applicable, it will state the publication or project, number of pages and images, promotional channels and number or frequency of posts, service duration, price and currency, payment schedule, expected delivery window, submission requirements, proof process, and whether physical copies or shipping are included. Included promotional components remain part of the purchase even if described as complimentary.
For an inconsistency, the following order of priority applies: a separately signed service agreement; the specific offer or Order you accepted; platform-specific terms clearly incorporated before acceptance; and these Terms. Mandatory law always controls. No general provision removes a specific commitment in your accepted Order.
Requests outside the agreed scope require a written agreement on additional work and fees before we charge for them. We may change future offerings, but changes to an existing Order require agreement where they materially affect the purchased Service.
3. Fudo Hub as the billing entity
Services associated with our brands may be invoiced and collected by Fudo Hub LLC. Our name or logo may therefore appear on your invoice, payment page, receipt, or payment statement even when the Service is associated with Photographize, Forks N' Roses, or Froth. We will identify the purchased Service and brand in the transaction records.
Payment to Fudo Hub LLC for that identified Service satisfies the corresponding payment obligation. A payment processor's descriptor may be abbreviated. Contact info@fudohub.com if you do not recognize a charge; your lawful billing-dispute rights remain unaffected.
4. Prices and payment
The Order states the applicable price, currency, taxes or mandatory charges, and payment terms. Where a charge cannot reasonably be calculated in advance, the basis for calculating it will be disclosed before purchase. Any bank or currency-conversion charges imposed independently by your payment provider are governed by your agreement with that provider.
Fees are due as specified in the Order. We may withhold commencement or pause affected work for an overdue, undisputed payment after notice and a reasonable opportunity to resolve it. We will not add work, increase an accepted price, or impose an undisclosed fee without your agreement.
Discounts apply to the stated offer and period. They do not establish pricing for future purchases. A renewal price may change only under Section 9.
Work begins when authorized under the Order, subject to any applicable cancellation period or separate consent requirement. Payment alone does not waive a statutory right to cancel. Fees are earned through the performance described in the Order; merely receiving payment does not make the entire fee earned.
5. Editorial selection and presentation
We retain editorial discretion over acceptance of submissions and, within the agreed scope, image selection, layout, typography, sequencing, placement, and presentation. Our editors may consider artistic quality, relevance, visual balance, and the overall publication design. We may request alternative images and will consider any preferences you provide.
Submission for evaluation does not guarantee selection. Once we accept payment for a confirmed publication or promotional commitment, editorial discretion does not permit us to remove that commitment without the remedies in Section 8. If an Order purchases evaluation only, that distinction and any evaluation fee must be disclosed before purchase.
We will not materially alter the substance of an artwork or attribute statements to you that you did not approve. Technical formatting, resizing, and ordinary copyediting are permitted within the license in Section 15. Material cropping, substantive changes, or a different selected image will be submitted for approval where appropriate or required by the Order.
6. Customer materials and proof approval
You must provide the materials and information reasonably needed to perform the Order, including suitable image files, accurate names and captions, a biography where required, and any necessary permissions. We will communicate technical requirements and deadlines. Keep your own copies of submitted files.
When proof approval is included, we will provide the proof before publication. You are responsible for checking the supplied proof, including spelling, names, image selection, captions, and factual details. Approval authorizes production of that version, subject to minor technical adjustments that do not materially change it. Silence does not constitute proof approval.
Corrections needed because we departed from the Order or introduced an error are made without an additional editing fee. Changes to previously approved material or requests outside the agreed scope may require an additional fee and revised schedule, agreed in advance. Approval does not excuse errors we introduce later or remove any mandatory remedy.
If materials or approvals are missing, we may pause the affected work and reasonably adjust the schedule. Before closing an inactive Order, we will send a reminder and a written final deadline allowing at least 14 calendar days to respond. If the required cooperation remains outstanding, we may close the Order and account for fees under Section 8. Nonresponse does not automatically forfeit the entire payment.
7. Publication and delivery schedules
The Order will distinguish an estimated publication or delivery window from a firm deadline. We will use reasonable efforts to meet estimates and notify you of a material delay, its expected effect, and a revised timeline when available.
Minor scheduling adjustments that do not materially change the benefit of the purchase do not alone entitle a customer to a refund. We may not postpone a paid commitment indefinitely. If we cannot perform within an agreed reasonable revised timeline, or a delay defeats a time-sensitive purpose we expressly accepted, you may cancel the affected undelivered Service and receive the applicable refund under Section 8.
Customer-caused delays may reasonably extend the schedule. Statutory shipping, cancellation, or refund deadlines are not extended by this section.
8. Cancellations and refunds
This section applies to one-time Services. Subscription cancellations are addressed in Section 9, statutory withdrawal rights in Section 10, and purchases of physical products in Section 13. Mandatory legal rights apply in every case.
Completed Services. Fees for Services properly completed in accordance with the Order are generally non-refundable merely because you change your mind, prefer a different editorial outcome within the agreed scope, or receive less engagement than hoped. This does not apply to nonperformance, material defects, misrepresentation, unauthorized charges, or another legal entitlement to a remedy.
Cancellation before performance. If you cancel before substantive work begins and before we incur a specifically authorized, nonrecoverable third-party cost, we will refund the payment in full, except for any separately ordered Service already properly completed.
Cancellation after work begins. If you voluntarily cancel after substantive work begins, we may retain a reasonable, proportionate amount for work actually performed on your Order and specifically authorized, nonrecoverable third-party costs incurred for it, to the extent permitted by law. We will explain the calculation on request and refund the remaining prepaid balance. We will not double-count costs, charge for avoidable future work, or retain more than the agreed price of the canceled Service.
Pre-sale review, routine correspondence, invoicing, payment processing, or an internal reservation of space does not, by itself, make the full purchase price non-refundable. A separate cancellation fee or deposit term applies only if clearly disclosed and accepted before purchase and lawful in the circumstances; it cannot remove the remedies below.
If we cannot deliver. If we cancel a publication or other Service, reject a paid placement after accepting the Order, or cannot provide a material promised component within the applicable timeline, we will offer an agreed substitute or refund the affected undelivered component. You do not have to accept a credit or substitute. If the missing component defeats the essential purpose of an inseparable package, we will refund that package in full. Internal preparation for a canceled publication does not count as a delivered standalone Service unless you specifically purchased that work separately and received its agreed benefit.
Partial performance. For independently useful components actually delivered, any permitted deduction will use the allocation agreed in the Order or, if none was agreed, a reasonable allocation reflecting the package price and value delivered. We will not retrospectively assign an inflated value to completed or complimentary components to eliminate a refund.
Material problems. If a Service materially fails to match the Order, contact us so we can investigate and, where appropriate and permitted by law, correct or reperform it within a reasonable time. If that is not possible or would cause significant inconvenience, an appropriate price reduction or refund will be provided. This process does not postpone a remedy that applicable law requires sooner.
Request and payment. Send a cancellation or refund request to info@fudohub.com or reply to the relevant Order correspondence, identifying the Order if available. We will acknowledge and assess it promptly. Refunds due will be issued without undue delay, within any applicable legal deadline, and normally to the original payment method. We will not charge a fee for issuing a refund required under these Terms or law.
9. Memberships and automatic renewals
A membership or subscription renews automatically only if that feature is clearly disclosed before enrollment and you expressly consent to the recurring charges. The enrollment information will identify the initial price, billing interval, initial and renewal terms, renewal price or disclosed basis for a change, trial or introductory conditions, and cancellation method. We will provide an acknowledgment you can retain and obtain and retain evidence of the required consent.
You may cancel future renewals at any time through the cancellation method supplied at enrollment or by emailing info@fudohub.com. For online enrollment, we will provide an easily accessible online cancellation mechanism at least as easy to use as enrollment, without requiring a conversation with a representative where prohibited. The email address is an additional support option and does not replace an online mechanism required by law. We will confirm cancellation and stop future recurring charges upon effective cancellation.
Unless you request immediate termination, your access ordinarily continues through the paid billing period. Cancellation alone does not create a prorated refund for an otherwise properly provided current period, but refunds remain available for an unauthorized charge, nonperformance, or as required by law. No cancellation fee applies to stopping future renewals.
We will provide advance renewal, trial-expiration, and price-change notices whenever required. For annual plans subject to Maryland's applicable notice requirement, renewal notice will be sent 15 to 45 days before renewal. Any required shorter trial-specific notice window or additional local requirement will also be observed.
Changes to renewal prices or material subscription terms apply only to a future term after clear advance notice and an opportunity to cancel; renewed consent will be obtained when required. No increase applies to an already paid term. You remain responsible for maintaining accurate billing and contact details, but outdated details do not excuse us from legally required notice or consent.
10. Statutory withdrawal and international consumers
Depending on your location and the transaction, mandatory law may give you a cooling-off or withdrawal period, including a 14-day period for certain EU or UK consumer distance contracts. Those rights take priority over our ordinary cancellation policy. For service contracts, the period generally runs from contract formation; different rules apply to physical goods and digital content.
Where such rules apply, we will provide the required pre-contract information, cancellation instructions, and model form. You may also cancel by a clear statement sent to info@fudohub.com; use of our form is not mandatory. If you request that a Service begin during a withdrawal period, we will obtain any required separate express request and acknowledgments. Any charge for work performed before withdrawal will be limited to what applicable law permits.
Acceptance of these Terms alone does not waive a statutory withdrawal right. The conditions for losing that right on full performance of a Service, or on supply of qualifying digital content, must be satisfied separately where required. A marketing or publishing Service is not automatically exempt because it is personalized. These Terms do not limit mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence where those protections apply.
11. Promotion and results
We will provide the publication, posts, hosting, or other deliverables promised in the Order. Unless expressly guaranteed, we do not promise a particular level of reach, impressions, engagement, followers, traffic, sales, revenue, bookings, recognition, or other commercial results.
Audience figures and past results describe the stated measurement period and are not guarantees of future performance. Separate platform audiences may overlap. A collaborative post also depends on the relevant platform's functionality and any required acceptance by the collaborator. If a promised collaborative feature becomes unavailable, Section 12 applies.
The Order should specify any promised display or hosting duration. We do not guarantee perpetual online availability unless expressly agreed. Changes in algorithms or disappointing results do not excuse failure to supply an agreed deliverable.
12. Third parties and disruptions
Our work may use independent social networks, hosting companies, printers, distributors, payment processors, and other providers. Their own terms may apply to your direct use of their services. We do not control their algorithms, account decisions, or general availability. Their involvement does not remove our responsibility for commitments we made to you.
Events genuinely beyond our reasonable control, such as a natural disaster, external outage, or platform suspension not caused by our failure to meet our obligations, may temporarily delay performance. We will take reasonable steps to notify affected customers, mitigate the impact, and resume performance. Lack of funds, low sales, or ordinary staffing difficulties do not alone qualify. A cybersecurity event does not excuse a failure to meet our own security or legal duties.
If a promised channel becomes unavailable, we may propose an alternative, explaining the relevant differences in audience, format, duration, and timing. We will obtain your agreement before a material substitution. A replacement account or website is not automatically equivalent to an established account named in the Order.
If no acceptable substitute or reasonable revised timeline is agreed, Section 8 governs cancellation and refunds for affected undelivered Services. Neither a disruption nor an alternative proposal permits us to retain payment indefinitely without providing the agreed benefit. Our privacy and security obligations continue to apply.
13. Physical publications and other products
A publication participation fee purchases the feature and other Services described in the Order. It does not include a complimentary physical copy, shipping, or customs charges unless expressly stated. Any purchase of physical copies is a separate transaction unless included in the Order.
If an independent retailer or print provider is the seller identified at checkout, its purchasing, delivery, and returns terms apply to that sale, subject to mandatory law. If Fudo Hub is the seller and a third party fulfills the order, we remain responsible for our seller obligations.
For products sold directly by Fudo Hub, the product description or checkout will disclose delivery terms and any lawful change-of-mind return conditions. We will provide any legally required shipping-delay notice, cancellation option, replacement, or refund. Nothing here excludes rights relating to faulty, damaged, misdescribed, or undelivered goods.
14. Rights in submitted materials
You retain ownership of your photographs, artwork, text, logos, video, biography, and other submitted materials ("Materials"). You represent that you own the Materials or have sufficient authority and permissions to grant the limited rights described here and authorize the intended use.
You are responsible for any copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, model, property, or other permissions legally required for that use. This does not mean every editorial photograph requires a release; the requirement depends on the content, use, and applicable law. We may ask for reasonable evidence of permission when relevant.
You must not submit unlawful, infringing, defamatory, or materially misleading content. Tell us promptly about a rights dispute or inaccurate information that could affect publication. We may pause use while investigating a credible concern. This section does not make you responsible for unauthorized changes or uses made by us.
15. Limited content license
Evaluation only. If you submit Materials solely for editorial consideration, you authorize us to receive, store, copy, and share them internally with personnel and service providers reasonably needed to evaluate the submission. Public publication or promotion requires a separate accepted publication, promotional, or submission agreement authorizing that use.
Agreed publication or promotion. For Materials you authorize us to use in an accepted Order or publication agreement, you grant Fudo Hub a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to reproduce, display, distribute, publish, and technically format those Materials as reasonably necessary to perform that agreement and promote the specific feature, publication, or project in which they appear. The license includes the accompanying name, biography, and credit information supplied for that purpose. No additional royalty is owed for these authorized uses unless agreed in writing.
We may authorize printers, distributors, hosting providers, social platforms, and other contractors to use the Materials only as needed for those purposes. We do not acquire ownership of the underlying work or a right to sell it separately, license it for unrelated advertising, or use it in a new unrelated publication without separate permission. Technical edits must respect Section 5 and any approved proof. We will use the agreed credit and reasonably correct credit errors within our control.
Duration. The license lasts for the agreed Service or display period. For an authorized published edition, it also permits continued distribution and reprinting of that same edition, including print-on-demand copies, and retention of its existing digital edition, published posts, and archival records. New promotional uses after the Service ends are limited to identifying or promoting that same edition or completed project. A new edition or unrelated campaign requires separate permission.
If an Order is canceled before authorized publication, permission for future publication under that Order ends, except for Materials included in a separately completed, authorized component. We may retain limited records needed for accounting, dispute resolution, or legal compliance under our privacy obligations. We cannot recall copies already lawfully distributed or control independent third-party copies. Nothing in this license waives nonwaivable moral rights, privacy rights, or statutory removal rights.
16. Fudo Hub and third party intellectual property
Fudo Hub owns or licenses its branding, original website content, design elements, and other proprietary materials. Contributed content remains owned by the relevant rights holder. You may browse the Website and use ordinary sharing or linking functions, subject to applicable law and third-party rights.
Except for permission granted in writing or rights available under law, you may not reproduce, commercially exploit, or misuse our proprietary materials or another contributor's work, or use branding to falsely imply affiliation or endorsement. Nothing here restricts fair use or another statutory exception.
An Order for commissioned creative work should specify ownership and permitted uses of the resulting deliverables. Unless it states otherwise, we retain our pre-existing templates, tools, and reusable design elements and, after full payment, license our delivered work to you non-exclusively for the purpose specified in that Order. Your rights in your own Materials remain unchanged.
To report suspected infringement on our channels, email info@fudohub.com with the work concerned, its location, your contact details, and the basis of the concern. We may request further information and take appropriate action.
17. Paid features and advertising disclosures
An invitation or editorial selection may relate to a paid opportunity. Any required participation fee and included benefits will be disclosed before commitment. Payment for a feature does not imply an independent award, guaranteed favorable review, or guaranteed commercial result.
We may identify content as advertising, a paid feature, or sponsored content and use platform disclosure tools where required by law or platform rules. You must not require us to conceal a material commercial relationship. Required public disclosures will accompany the relevant content; a statement in these Terms alone does not replace them.
18. Website and account use
You must not misuse the Website or our systems, introduce malware, attempt unauthorized access, disrupt services, impersonate another person, or use our channels for fraud or unlawful activity. Any automated access must comply with law and must not impair our systems or infringe protected rights.
If an account is provided, keep your credentials secure and notify us promptly of suspected unauthorized use. We remain responsible for our own security obligations. We may take proportionate measures to protect users, rights holders, and systems, subject to Section 19 for paid Services.
19. Suspension and termination
We may refuse unlawful content or suspend an affected Service for a material breach, a credible rights or security concern, or a legal requirement. Where practical, we will explain the reason and provide a reasonable opportunity to resolve a remediable issue before terminating a paid Order. Immediate action may be necessary to address an urgent legal or security risk.
If we terminate for convenience or because we cannot perform, Section 8 applies. If termination results from your material breach, we may retain only amounts lawfully due for work performed and authorized nonrecoverable costs, subject to applicable law and any separately enforceable claim for loss. Suspension does not automatically make all prepaid fees non-refundable or authorize continued renewal charges for an unavailable Service.
20. Billing concerns and payment disputes
Please contact info@fudohub.com if a payment or Service appears incorrect. Contacting us first is encouraged, but is not a prerequisite to exercising a statutory or payment-provider right, and does not extend any bank or legal deadline.
We may provide relevant, accurate transaction and fulfillment records to a payment processor, bank, or other authorized dispute-resolution party in accordance with our privacy obligations. Records may include the accepted Order, evidence of consent, invoices, communications, approved proofs, and evidence of performance. Work-start records do not by themselves establish full delivery.
A chargeback does not automatically determine the parties' legal rights. We will not require you to waive a legitimate dispute, impose a penalty merely for raising one in good faith, or obtain duplicate recovery of the same payment. Any refund and dispute credit will be reconciled through the appropriate payment process.
21. Privacy and communications
Our applicable Privacy Policy explains how personal information is collected, used, retained, and shared and how to exercise relevant rights. Each platform may have its own policy. These Terms do not replace those notices or any separate consent required by law.
We may send communications needed to administer your Order, billing, proofs, and account. Marketing communications are subject to applicable consent and opt-out requirements. Purchasing a Service does not require you to waive privacy rights or accept unrelated marketing.
22. Website warranties and service standards
To the extent permitted by law, free general Website content is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not promise uninterrupted access or that general content will always be current or free of errors. This disclaimer does not apply to an express commitment in a paid Order or excuse failure to perform a paid Service with reasonable care and skill.
Our publications and general content are informational and are not individualized professional advice. Links to external websites do not, by themselves, mean we endorse their content. Nothing here excludes a warranty, quality obligation, or remedy that applicable law does not allow us to exclude.
23. Liability and mandatory remedies
Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, intentional or reckless misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any liability that cannot lawfully be limited. No provision waives or limits statutory or punitive damages, declaratory or injunctive relief, or another remedy where applicable law prohibits that limitation. These Terms do not shorten a legal deadline for bringing a claim.
Business customers only. Subject to the preceding paragraph, if you purchase wholly or mainly for business or professional purposes and are not protected as a consumer for that transaction, neither party is liable to the other for indirect or consequential losses, including lost profits to the extent they are indirect or consequential. Fudo Hub's aggregate liability for a claim arising from the affected Service is limited to the total fees you paid or were required to pay for that Service; for an ongoing subscription, the amount is the fees for that Service during the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Related claims arising from the same event are subject to a single applicable cap.
The business limitation does not reduce a refund expressly owed under these Terms, an obligation to pay fees properly due, or a remedy preserved in the first paragraph. The exclusion of indirect or consequential losses does not exclude amounts payable to third parties under Section 24. These business limitations do not apply to consumer transactions. Consumers retain the remedies available under applicable law.
24. Third party claims involving business customers
If you are a business customer as described in Section 23, you will indemnify Fudo Hub and its personnel against a third-party claim, including reasonable legal costs, to the extent caused by your breach of the rights assurances in Section 14, your unlawful instructions, or your intentional misconduct. This does not cover loss caused by our breach, negligence, unauthorized alteration of Materials, or use outside the agreed license.
We will notify you promptly of a claim, allow a reasonable opportunity to participate in or control its defense through competent counsel, and provide reasonable cooperation at your expense. A failure to give prompt notice reduces your obligation only to the extent it materially prejudices the defense. No settlement may admit liability by the other party or impose nonmonetary obligations on it without its written consent, not unreasonably withheld. This contractual indemnity does not apply to consumers.
25. Governing law and disputes
Maryland law governs these Terms, except to the extent another law must apply. For business transactions, the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of state courts in Maryland or federal courts located in Maryland with authority over the dispute.
If you are a consumer, this choice of law and court does not deprive you of mandatory protections or any right to bring proceedings in another court, including an appropriate court where you live. These Terms do not impose mandatory arbitration, waive a jury trial or class proceeding, or prevent a complaint to a regulator or payment provider.
We welcome an opportunity to resolve concerns directly, but informal discussion is not a mandatory waiting period and does not suspend legal deadlines unless the parties validly agree otherwise.
26. Changes and general contract terms
We may update these Terms for future Orders by posting a revised version with a new date. An existing Order remains governed by the version accepted for it unless both parties agree to a change. We will not retroactively remove an accrued right or change the terms governing an existing dispute.
For a continuing subscription, proposed material changes will be notified directly at least 30 days before a future term when practicable, or earlier if applicable law requires. If adequate advance notice cannot be given, the change will be deferred or separately agreed. Any specific legal notice window also applies. Customers may cancel future renewals before a change takes effect, and we will obtain further consent when required. Merely posting a revised page is not sufficient notice of a material subscription change.
These Terms and the documents validly incorporated into the Order form the agreement for its subject matter, subject to Section 2. They do not exclude liability for misrepresentation or override a promise or right that applicable law requires us to honor. Changes to a specific Order may be recorded in a mutually accepted email exchange.
If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to the extent practicable. A failure to enforce a provision promptly does not waive it. Provisions intended to continue after completion or termination, including properly accrued payment obligations, authorized archival licenses, and applicable dispute provisions, survive to the extent lawful. Neither this survival clause nor any transfer of the business enlarges the rights granted in customer Materials.
