Last Updated: April 2026

This policy applies to all digital products and services sold by Acton Circle LLC, including but not limited to Template Kits, planners, guides, toolkits, workbooks, downloadable resources ("Digital Products"), and Annual Report Deep Dive engagements ("Deep Dives").

By purchasing from Acton Circle, you agree to the terms below.

Ownership & Intellectual Property

All Digital Products, Deep Dive deliverables, frameworks, methodologies, and underlying templates remain the intellectual property of Acton Circle LLC. Deep Dive deliverables are licensed to the purchasing organization for internal use; the underlying frameworks, methodologies, and proprietary tools used to produce them remain the property of Acton Circle.

Your purchase does not transfer ownership—only a limited license to use the deliverable as outlined below.

You may not:

• Claim a Digital Product or Deep Dive deliverable as your original work
• Remove copyright or ownership notices
• Sell, redistribute, or repackage the original or modified deliverable without written permission from Acton Circle

Digital Products

License & Permitted Use

Your purchase grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Digital Product for one (1) business or organization, and for multiple internal projects belonging to that same entity, unless otherwise stated.

You may:

• Use the Digital Product for your own internal business or organizational purposes
• Customize, edit, or adapt the content for your licensed use
• Use Templates and tools as part of your own marketing, fundraising, or communications materials

You may not:

• Resell, redistribute, sublicense, share, or give away the Digital Product
• Make the Digital Product available to the public, a membership group, or another organization
• Use the Digital Product as part of a competing product, course, or template library

Each license is intended for single-entity use only.

Designers & Client Use

Designers, consultants, and agencies may use Digital Products for client work only if a separate license is purchased for each unique client.

Digital Products may not be:

• Marketed, credited, or promoted as the designer's original work
• Included in client-facing deliverables as a reusable or transferrable asset

Each client requires their own license.

Sharing Restrictions

Digital Products may not be shared outside your organization or licensed client team.

This includes:

• Sharing files, templates, or links
• Uploading products to shared drives or libraries accessible by others
• Repurposing content for another organization without a new license

Canva-Specific Terms (If Applicable)

Some Digital Products are delivered as Canva Templates and require an active Canva account.

You are responsible for:

• Maintaining access to Canva
• Complying with Canva's Terms of Service

Acton Circle is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Canva. All Canva trademarks belong solely to Canva.

Access & Delivery

Digital Products are delivered electronically. Most products are available immediately after purchase, though rare delays of up to 24 hours may occur. If you experience access issues, please contact hello@actoncircle.co.

Deep Dives

Scope & Deliverables

The Deep Dive is a fixed-scope service. Deliverables, timeline, and what's included are exactly as described on the Deep Dive service page at the time of purchase. No separate proposal or statement of work is provided—by purchasing, you agree that the page content defines the engagement.

License & Permitted Use

Your Deep Dive deliverable is licensed to your organization for internal use. You may share it with your internal team, board, and advisors working directly on your behalf.

You may not:

• Repackage, resell, or redistribute the deliverable
• Share it with another organization, peer group, or membership community
• Use it as part of a competing product, course, or training program

Frameworks, scoring systems, audit methodologies, and proprietary tools used to produce the deliverable remain the property of Acton Circle and are not licensed for reuse outside your engagement.

Delivery

Deep Dive deliverables are delivered electronically on the timeline stated on the service page. If you experience delivery or access issues, please contact hello@actoncircle.co.

Returns & Refunds

All sales are final.

Due to the nature of digital products and fixed-scope services, we cannot offer refunds, exchanges, or cancellations on Digital Products or Deep Dives. Please review product and service descriptions carefully before purchasing.

Marketing & Portfolio Use

Acton Circle may showcase completed designs, anonymized findings, or examples of work created through our Digital Products and Deep Dives in our portfolio, website, or marketing materials. Where applicable, this may include a link to your organization's website, a short blurb about your org, and any testimonial you've shared with us. This is free visibility for your mission and a backlink to your site.

For Deep Dives, we will not share confidential strategy details, donor data, or internal financials without your explicit written permission.

If you prefer to opt out of portfolio or marketing use, please email hello@actoncircle.co.

Disclaimer

Digital Products and Deep Dives are provided "as is." Results may vary based on how recommendations are implemented, your organization's context, and factors outside Acton Circle's control.

Acton Circle makes no guarantees regarding specific outcomes, fundraising results, or performance.
