Terms of Service

1. Website Use & Inquiry Protocols

This Website is provided as an authority resource for corporate talent buyers, meeting planners, convention committees, and prospective clients. You agree to use the Website solely for lawful business purposes. Submitting a date inquiry, availability check, or proposal request does not constitute a confirmed contract or bind Elijah Edwards Entertainment LLC to a performance hold until a formal written Performance Agreement has been executed by both authorized parties and the required earnest deposit is secured.

2. Engagement Contracting & Tour Logistics

All live entertainment bookings for Elijah Edwards—including Modern Mental Comedy, Nothing Is Random, and The Edwards Effect LIVE—are formalized through written contracts that incorporate specific performance riders:

• All-Inclusive Flat Fee Pricing: Unless explicitly noted otherwise in writing, commercial booking proposals are presented as all-inclusive flat fee agreements covering performance compensation, round-trip commercial airfare, ground transportation, and travel meals.
• Staging & Technical Specifications: The client or venue agrees to satisfy the basic technical requirements outlined in the official Technical Rider (https://elijahedwards.com/production-rider), including clean raised platform staging, direct line-level soundboard inputs, and armless chairs for volunteer participants.
• Night-Before Travel Arrival: To insulate against commercial flight disruptions, Elijah Edwards Entertainment LLC enforces a mandatory night-before hotel arrival policy for all commercial fly-in performance dates.

3. Affirmative Consent & Safety Standards

As a certified clinical hypnotherapist, Elijah Edwards conducts all interactive stage entertainment under rigorous affirmative consent protocols:

• Participation by audience members is strictly voluntary; no attendee is coerced, forced, or pressured into stage participation.
• Routines are 100% workplace-clean and HR-safe, completely free from profanity, vulgarity, divisive political commentary, or degrading stunts.
• Volunteers are treated with utmost respect and dignity throughout the performance and may voluntarily return to their audience seats at any time.

4. Intellectual Property & Recording Rights

All Website content—including text, graphics, proprietary production concepts, logos, trademarks, and audiovisual materials—is the exclusive intellectual property of Elijah Edwards Entertainment LLC and protected under international copyright and trademark laws.

• Private Internal Archival: Clients and host organizations may record the performance for private internal company archives or highlight reels, provided prior written consent is included in the booking rider.
• Commercial Broadcast Restrictions: Live performance recordings may not be sold, commercially broadcast, monetized, or syndicated without prior written licensing agreements executed by Elijah Edwards Entertainment LLC.

5. Cancellation, Postponement & Force Majeure

Engagement contracts contain standard force majeure protections covering events beyond reasonable commercial control, including acts of God, civil emergencies, severe natural weather disasters, epidemic groundings, or documented flight cancellations:

• In the event of an unavoidable force majeure cancellation, both parties agree to apply all paid deposits toward a mutually agreed rescheduled date within twelve (12) calendar months.
• Elective cancellations initiated by the client are governed by the specific cancellation schedule detailed in the executed Performance Agreement.

6. SMS & Mobile Communication Terms (10DLC)
