10.3 Please note, in the case of script development services and Reports, this is a naturally subjective area and we pride ourselves on providing Reports which are honest, and constructive in their criticism. Nonetheless, it is in the nature of script development generally for individuals to disagree with one another, or feel that criticism or praise is particularly valid, or unjust. Likewise it is a reality that although writers and filmmakers feel they are prepared for criticism of their work, and able to deal with it in a thoroughly professional manner, this is not always the case and any Complaints about our Reports occur against this backdrop, which is not always a straightforward matter or opinion.
10.4 As stated above we are keen to work with Buyers to resolve complaints, however we treat any deliberately mischievous, slanderous, libellous, defamatory or malicious claims or comments that may harm Our Company or Services very seriously, and would suggest Buyers seek legal advice before distributing any negative views, comments or observations in any public or private forum, platform or arena including but not limited to: websites, online discussion forums, journals, articles, social networking sites and any other media be it public or private.

More benefits will be added over time.
21.3 For clarity and the avoidance of doubt OVERDRIVE’s legal status is that of a Digital Download Product. Due to the digital, non-returnable nature of many of the services and products, no refunds are possible after purchase/application/checkout. Such Digital Format Products are specifically excluded from any rights under the Consumer Contracts and Distance Selling Regulations, and through agreeing to these Terms and Conditions of sale you hereby agree to waive your rights under the 14-day cooling off period.
21.4 Subscriptions cost £228.00 and are for a minimum of 12 calendar months from the date of purchase, in all cases. We endeavor to assist members with subscription fees by permitting them to spread payments through monthly payments of £19.00. Members must have an active payment facility in place at all times. OVERDRIVE is not offered on a “try before you buy” or trial basis.
21.5 Post-checkout OVERDRIVE offers a short application process and we reserve the right to decline or approve admission at our sole discretion. In the case of a declined application (as decided by us) all monies transferred will be refunded in full via PayPal/Stripe within 7 days. The onus rests exclusively with the applicant to promptly deliver the necessary materials to support their application, and they will be requested by us at least twice post-checkout. We reserve the right to accept or decline members as we see fit, whether the prospective member has followed instructions and submitted further application materials, or not, and whether they have sent these materials, joined the member forum, used member benefits as yet, or not. In the event any applicant applies but fails to submit materials to support their application, such as a CV or covering letter, their application may be provisionally approved, with temporary restrictions on some services and member benefits. In the event of a provisional or full approval no subsequent refunds are possible, and the full annual membership fee is due.

21.7 OVERDRIVE operates a strict policy regarding derogatory, inflammatory or offensive comments or language in the member forum(s). We reserve the right to eject members who post insulting, controversial or inflammatory messages or content in our members’ area(s). In the event you are banned or removed from the members’ area, continued membership and use of the wider OVERDRIVE member benefits system are permitted but no refunds or compensation will be given.
21.8 Whilst networking is heavily encouraged, the establishment of splinter or satellite groups is not. Those seeking to establish splinter groups using introductions initially facilitated by OVERDRIVE will have their membership revoked, with no refund.

21.9 Unique coupon codes can be used by members alone. For clarity: members’ friends, family, colleagues or other affiliated parties cannot write a script and submit it through a members’ discount. Members must be the copyright holder.

21.11 As Per 21.4 Industrial Scripts is commited to helping writers and filmmakers and allows members to spread their £228.00 annual membership payment over 12 instalments of £19. For members who join on said pay-monthly subscription, acceptance of these terms and conditions represents a binding 12 month commitment (in the event of a successful application, as determined by us). Our payment processor will attempt to take payment on the same day every month, corresponding to the date you joined. Should payment fail to clear, we will be notified and payment will be attempted two further times. If these attempts are unsuccessful – or you should cancel or even fail to set up an active payment facility initially – we will contact you to arrange alternative payment. Should any one or more payments be delayed by more than 30 days we may take further action which may include, but not be limited to, passing your details to credit collection agencies and initiating Small Claims proceedings.
21.12 All content delivered to members is copyright Industrial Scripts and may not be shared, distributed or circulated in any way.
21.13 For mentorship members, any meetings (virtual or otherwise) that are due to take place as part of your membership are subject to a 5 day cancellation policy. If you cancel within 5 days of the meeting, it will be considered used and no re-scheduling is possible.
21.14 Affiliate earnings are paid on the last day of the month, in arrears, via PayPal. Users must have an active PayPal account in order to receive affiliate payments, and the script developers you refer to us must spend north of £70 with us in one booking in order to qualify. Earnings are paid on the customer’s first booking with us, only.
21.15 Certain benefits are not time-dependent and may not be delivered immediately upon sign-up. Delivery time and date is down to Industrial Scripts discretion but wherever possible benefits will be delivered as soon as humanly possible.
21.16 Member coupons cannot be combined with occasional other coupons we may make available to the wider public.
21.17 As part of their subscription members are able to attend certain live events and training courses. Places at these events are available on a first come, first served basis, and are capped according to venue size and other external factors. Whilst best endeavours will be made by Industrial Scripts to accommodate members at events this is goal rather than a guarantee, and upon the announcement of courses and events members are advised to move swiftly to avoid disappointment.
