Workshop Terms & Conditions

Waiver & Release: In consideration of being permitted to participate in a candle making workshop (the “Workshop”) offered by Blank Mason, LLC (the “Company”), I, for and behalf of myself, my heirs and person representatives and all persons claiming by or through me, hereby release, waive and discharge the Company and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents (the “Released Parties”) from all existing and future claims and/or causes of action arising from, or relating to, the Workshop, my presence on the Company’s premises (the “Premises”) or my use of the Company’s tools, equipment or facilities (the “Equipment”), including, without limitation, injury, illness, death, or property loss, regardless of whether arising, in whole or part, from the action or inaction of any Released Parties.

Assumption of Risks: The Company may, but is not obligated to, permit the consumption of alcoholic beverages on Premises. I understand that participation in both candle making and drinking alcohol carries certain known and unknown risks that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. I acknowledge that I am aware and voluntarily expose myself to risks inherent in candle making, including, and not limited to, physical and emotional injury or death resulting from serious burns/scalding and other heat-related injuries; slippery surfaces; lacerations; allergic reactions; and eye injuries. I further acknowledge that if I choose to consume alcohol on the Premises, I am aware of and voluntarily expose myself to many risks of alcohol consumption, and the risk that alcohol consumption might exacerbate the risks inherent in candle making. I hereby knowingly assume full and sole responsibility for all of the foregoing risks and acknowledge that my participation in the Workshop is fully voluntary.

Indemnification & Hold Harmless: I agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Released Parties from any and all existing and future claims, actions, suites, procedures, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs) brought, asserted, incurred or arising from or as a result of my participation in the Workshop, my presence on the Premises or my use of the Equipment.

Policies & Procedures:  I understand that the Company may impose certain policies and procedures in the connection with the Workshop, including without limitation the right to exclude intoxicated parties from the Premises or participation in the Workshop. I agree to abide by any and all such policies and procedures and understand that if I violate them, I may be asked to leave the Premises without refund of any fees or other costs I may have incurred in connection with the Workshop.

Use of Likeness: I hereby grant to the Company the right to use my likeness and recorded actions during my participation in the Workshop, without charge, in the Company’s marketing and promotional materials.

Minors: I understand that I cannot bring any children under age 5 to the Premises during the Workshop, and that all Workshop participants must be at least 8 years old. I will ensure that 1 adult will remain present on the Premises during the entire Workshop for every 8 Workshop participants ages 8-14. I understand that each Workshop participant who is under the age 18 must have a parent or guardian sign this waiver on behalf of the Workshop participant. No alcohol will be served or may be consumed on the Premises by any person who does not present a valid ID indicating such person is at least age 21. Illinois law maintains that a person must be 21 and up to consume alcohol.

Chargeback: All references to a “chargeback” refer to a reversal of a credit or debit card charge placed on the Sites and/or at the Services initiated by You. There is no reason for a chargeback to ever be filed. If you feel that your credit or debit card was used fraudulently on the Sites or at the Services, please contact the company for immediate resolution. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT CHARGEBACK ANY AMOUNTS CHARGED TO YOUR CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD ON THE SITES OR AT THE SERVICES. IF YOU CHARGEBACK A CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD CHARGE FOR A PAYMENT INITIATED BY YOU OR ANY AUTHORIZED USER OF THE CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD, YOU AGREE THAT THE COMPANY MAY RECOVER THE AMOUNT OF THE CHARGEBACK IN ADDITION TO FEES BY ANY MEANS DEEMED NECESSARY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, RECHARGING YOUR CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD OR HAVING THE AMOUNT RECOVERED BY A COLLECTION AGENCY.

Returns & Exchanges: Due to the custom nature of our workshops, parties, events, products and services, all sales are final and non-refundable. Due to the handmade nature of these products and since we cannot control the processes, we cannot exchange or resell these products.

Severability: In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall declare any part of this agreement provision to be invalid, prohibited, or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this agreement shall remain enforceable. To the fullest extent allowed by the law, any invalid, unenforceable or prohibited portion of this agreement shall be modified by a court of law so as to allow the same to be interpreted in such manner so as to be enforceable.
