General Disclaimer
The information provided through Bokeh Academy is intended for general informational and educational purposes. Our materials cover photography techniques, lighting, posing, editing, creative development, marketing, sales, workflows, and photography business practices.
We make reasonable efforts to provide useful and accurate information. However, we do not guarantee that all content is complete, current, accurate, or suitable for every individual’s circumstances. Errors, omissions, and outdated information may occur.
We may update, replace, or remove Website content. Such changes do not override commitments expressly made for a purchased product or service, or rights available under applicable law.
Educational Content and Results
Our courses, webinars, workshops, conference sessions, and other educational resources are designed to support learning and professional development.
We do not guarantee a particular level of photographic skill, creative outcome, business growth, income, profitability, client bookings, or other result. Outcomes depend on factors including your experience, effort, equipment, implementation, market conditions, and individual circumstances.
Examples, case studies, testimonials, portfolio images, and instructor experiences illustrate particular results or approaches. They do not promise that you will achieve the same results.
You are responsible for evaluating whether a technique, recommendation, or business strategy is appropriate for your circumstances.
Professional Advice Disclaimer
Although our educational materials may discuss business operations, pricing, contracts, marketing, or related topics, they are not a substitute for personalized legal, accounting, tax, financial, or other regulated professional advice.
Consult an appropriately qualified adviser before making decisions that require such advice. Participation in our educational offerings does not, by itself, establish an attorney-client, accountant-client, or other regulated professional relationship.
Errors and Omissions
Photography equipment, software, platforms, industry practices, and applicable laws may change over time. Materials that were accurate when published or recorded may subsequently become outdated.
We do not guarantee that every course, recording, article, or resource reflects the latest developments. You should independently verify information where accuracy or currency is material to your decision.
If you identify an error, please contact us so we can review it and take appropriate action.
Equipment and Practical Activities
Our educational materials may demonstrate photography equipment, lighting setups, editing tools, posing techniques, or practical shooting activities.
Follow manufacturers’ instructions, venue rules, instructor directions, and appropriate safety precautions. Consider your own experience and the safety, comfort, and consent of models, clients, and other participants.
Educational demonstrations do not replace equipment-specific safety guidance or grant permission to disregard applicable laws, location restrictions, or another person’s rights.
External Links and Third Party Resources
Our Website may contain links to external websites, software, equipment providers, social platforms, or other third-party resources.
Unless expressly stated, a link or reference does not constitute endorsement, approval, or a guarantee of the provider or its offerings. We do not control external websites and cannot guarantee their accuracy, relevance, availability, security, or completeness.
Review the relevant provider’s terms, privacy policy, specifications, and purchase conditions before using its services or making a purchase.
This section does not remove our responsibilities for products or services sold directly by Bokeh Academy.
Copyright and Fair Use
Photographs, videos, course materials, graphics, and other content remain the property of their respective owners. Access to our Services does not grant unrestricted permission to copy, redistribute, publish, or commercially exploit those materials.
Where applicable, limited portions of third-party copyrighted works may be used for criticism, commentary, teaching, scholarship, research, or other purposes permitted by law, including Section 107 of the United States Copyright Act.
An educational purpose does not automatically establish fair use. Whether a particular use qualifies depends on the circumstances and applicable legal factors.
You must obtain permission from the relevant rights holder unless your intended use is authorized by a license or otherwise permitted by law. Our use of a work does not automatically authorize your subsequent use.
If you believe content on our Website infringes your copyright, please contact us with details of the work and the material concerned.
Views Expressed
Opinions expressed by instructors, speakers, guest contributors, interviewees, or community members are their own. They do not necessarily represent the views of Bokeh Academy, its partners, sponsors, or other contributors.
Presenting a speaker or publishing a contribution does not mean that we endorse every opinion, recommendation, product, or statement associated with that person.
User Comments and Contributions
Users are responsible for the comments, reviews, photographs, and other materials they submit, including their accuracy, legality, and any necessary permissions.
Contributions must comply with our Terms and Conditions and must not infringe intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights.
We may moderate or remove contributions that violate our policies or applicable law. Honest opinions and lawful criticism are permitted. Any limitations on our responsibility for user content apply only to the extent permitted by law.
Website Availability and Security
We take reasonable steps to maintain the Website, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access.
Technical failures, maintenance, internet connectivity issues, third-party service interruptions, or other circumstances may affect availability. We cannot guarantee that the Website, downloads, or external resources will always be free from viruses or other harmful components.
Use appropriate device security measures and exercise care when downloading materials or accessing third-party links.

To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim implied warranties concerning general Website information, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
You are responsible for exercising independent judgment when relying on educational information and for obtaining professional advice where appropriate.
Limitation of Responsibility
