Terms of Service

42Takes makes films and websites for businesses. There is no online shop on this website. Every order starts with a personal offer, and every price is fixed in that offer before you pay.

1. How an order works

  1. You tell us what you need, through the contact form or by e-mail.
  2. You receive a personal offer page by link. It shows the storyboard, what you get, the fixed price and the delivery date.
  3. You accept the offer and pay by card through the payment link on your offer page, or by bank transfer.
  4. We produce your film or website and deliver the files digitally.

The contract is concluded when you accept the offer in writing (e-mail is enough) or when you pay the first amount. An offer is valid for the period stated in it, otherwise for 30 days.

By accepting an offer or paying, you agree to these terms and to our Refund and Cancellation Policy.

2. Who we are and who these terms are for

42Takes is a brand of Kern Operations LLC, 30 N Gould St, Ste N, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States of America (“we”).

We work for businesses only. By accepting an offer you confirm that you act for a business and not as a consumer.

These terms apply to every offer and every order. If your offer says something different, the offer prevails. Your own purchasing terms apply only if we agree to them in writing.

3. Our services

We make explainer films, product films, brand films, short cuts for social media, and websites with motion design. Your offer names exactly what you get: the number of films or pages, length, formats, languages, price and delivery date.

Every project runs in four steps: brief, storyboard, production, delivery. Production starts after you approve the storyboard in writing. For a website, the design concept takes the place of the storyboard.

Revisions: two rounds of changes are included, unless your offer names a different number. One round is one collected list of changes. Further rounds, and changes that depart from the approved storyboard, are quoted separately and start only after your written approval.

Your part: you give us the material we need (logo, product information, images, texts), name one contact person and answer questions within 5 business days. If material or feedback arrives later, the delivery date moves by the same time.

4. Prices and payment

Prices are fixed in your offer, in USD, EUR or CHF. You are charged in the currency of your offer.

You choose one of two ways to pay:

Card payments are processed by our payment provider over an encrypted connection. We never see or store your full card number. The charge appears on your statement under Kern Operations or 42Takes.

Prices do not include VAT, sales tax or similar taxes. If such a tax is due in your country, you account for it yourself (for example under the reverse charge procedure).

If an amount is more than 10 days overdue, we may pause the work until it is paid. Final files without watermark are handed over after full payment.

5. Delivery and acceptance

We deliver digitally, with a download link by e-mail. The delivery date is stated in your offer. Most films are delivered 7 to 14 days after you approve the storyboard.

Please check the delivery within 10 business days. If something departs from the approved storyboard or from your offer, tell us in writing and we correct it at no charge. If we hear nothing within 10 business days, the work counts as accepted.

6. Rights of use

After full payment you may use the final files for your business, worldwide and without time limit, in the channels named in your offer. If your offer names no channels, this covers your website, your online shop, your social media channels, your advertising and your presentations.

Until full payment, all rights remain with us. Editable project files are part of the delivery only if your offer says so.

Music, fonts, voices and stock footage are licensed for your project. Their licence terms apply in addition.

Material you give us: you confirm that you are allowed to use it and that the statements about your products are true and lawful. If a third party raises a claim against us because of your material, you bear the costs.

We may show the finished work and your company name as a reference, unless you object in writing.

7. Cancellation and refunds

Our Refund and Cancellation Policy is part of these terms.

8. Liability

We are liable without limit for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and wherever the law does not allow a limit.

In all other cases our total liability for a project is limited to the amount you paid for that project.

As far as the law allows, we are not liable for lost profit, lost revenue or other indirect damage. We do not promise a particular commercial result such as views, leads or sales.

9. Confidentiality and data protection

Both sides keep the other side’s confidential information confidential and use it only for the project. Your offer page is personal; please do not publish its link.

How we handle personal data is described in our privacy policy.

10. Governing law and venue

These terms and every contract with us are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, USA, excluding its conflict of law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

Venue is Sheridan County, Wyoming, USA, unless your offer names a different venue. We may also bring a claim at your registered office.

11. Final provisions

Changes to a contract must be made in writing; e-mail is enough. If one provision is invalid, the rest remains in force. Neither side is liable for delays caused by events outside its control.

We may update these terms. The version in force on the day you accept your offer applies to your order. These terms exist in English and German; if the two differ, the English version prevails.
