Please read these terms carefully. By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Website.

About the Website
The Website provides information about Malveaux Media, our founder, Malveaux: The Room, our productions, publications, and related activities. It also allows visitors to contact us, subscribe to updates, and access content or services through third-party links.
We do not process purchases through the Website. Purchases from linked retailers and services provided through third-party platforms are subject to those parties' terms and policies.
Any advisory, speaking, production, or other professional engagement requires a separate agreement. Information on the Website and communications through its contact form do not, by themselves, create a client, advisory, fiduciary, or other professional relationship.

You are responsible for your internet connection, devices, and other arrangements needed to access the Website.

Sharing and linking
You are welcome to share links to our publicly available content, including individual episodes and pages.
Links and accompanying descriptions must not falsely suggest an association with or endorsement by Malveaux Media. You may not disguise the source of our content or frame the Website in a way that misleadingly presents it as your own.

Inquiries and submitted materials
We welcome relevant inquiries about advisory work, speaking, media, publications, the show, and potential collaborations.
Information you submit should be accurate to the best of your knowledge, and you must have the right to share any materials you provide.
Please do not send confidential information, trade secrets, sensitive personal information, or unpublished creative materials unless we have agreed in advance to receive them on an appropriate basis. An unsolicited submission does not create a confidentiality agreement or an obligation to review, use, return, or pay for the material.
You retain ownership of materials you submit. You authorize us to receive, store, and review those materials, and to share them with personnel or service providers as reasonably necessary to evaluate and respond to your inquiry, subject to our Privacy Policy and any separate agreement.
Submitting material does not grant us a general right to publish it or use it commercially. Any such use requires a separate agreement or another lawful basis.
Editorial content and professional advice
Our interviews, articles, videos, and other content are provided for general information, discussion, and entertainment.
Views expressed by guests and other contributors are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Malveaux Media. Featuring a person, business, product, or service does not by itself constitute an endorsement.
Content may reflect the circumstances and information available when it was recorded or published. It may become outdated, and we do not undertake to update every item.
Website content is not individualized legal, tax, investment, financial, medical, or other professional advice. You should obtain appropriate advice before making decisions that require it.
Nothing on the Website constitutes an offer to sell or a solicitation to purchase a security or investment product.
Third-party websites and platforms
The Website may link to or display content provided through third-party platforms, including video services, social media platforms, publishers, and retailers.
We do not control those third parties or guarantee their content, availability, security, products, or services. Your use of their services is subject to their terms and privacy policies.
Any transaction with a third-party retailer or provider is between you and that third party.
Privacy and newsletters
Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy.
Subscribing to a newsletter is optional. You may unsubscribe using the link in an email or by contacting us. Sending an inquiry does not automatically subscribe you to promotional messages.
Cookie and advertising preferences are managed as described in our Privacy Policy and through the Website's available privacy controls.
Copyright concerns
If you believe material on the Website infringes your copyright or other intellectual property rights, contact info@malveauxmedia.com.
Please identify the relevant work, the material you believe infringes your rights, its location on the Website, your contact details, and the basis for your claim. We may request further information to evaluate and address the concern.
Disclaimer of warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Website and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.
We do not warrant that the Website will be uninterrupted, error-free, completely secure, or free of harmful components, or that all content will be accurate, complete, or current.
To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Nothing in these terms excludes any warranty or protection that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Malveaux Media and its personnel, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Website or its content. This includes resulting loss of profits, business opportunities, goodwill, or data.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Your mandatory rights under applicable consumer protection and other laws remain unaffected.
Responsibility for misuse
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you are responsible for third-party claims and reasonable resulting costs to the extent caused by your unlawful use of the Website, infringement of another person's rights, or material breach of these terms.
This provision does not require you to compensate us for losses caused by our own negligence or misconduct.
Governing law and disputes
These Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where mandatory applicable law requires otherwise.
Subject to any mandatory rights you have to bring proceedings elsewhere, disputes arising from these terms or your use of the Website will be brought in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York. You and we submit to the jurisdiction of those courts.
If you are a consumer residing outside New York, nothing in these terms deprives you of mandatory protections or rights to bring proceedings in your home jurisdiction where applicable law provides those rights.
You may contact info@malveauxmedia.com to raise a concern before commencing proceedings, but doing so is not a condition of exercising your legal rights.
Changes to these terms
We may revise these terms as the Website or our activities develop. We will post the revised terms and update the date above.
Material changes will apply prospectively. We will provide additional notice or request agreement where required by law. Changes to dispute provisions will not apply retroactively to disputes that arose before those changes took effect.
General provisions
If a provision of these terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
A failure to enforce a provision does not waive the right to enforce it later.
These terms govern use of the Website. They do not replace a separate written agreement for professional services, licensing, production, or another engagement. Where such an agreement conflicts with these terms regarding that engagement, the separate agreement controls.
