1. Agreement Terms
Last updated 2026.01
- Acceptance of Agreement
- This Terms of Service Agreement (the "Agreement") constitutes a legally binding agreement between Floresta Creative LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Colorado ("Floresta"), and the client ("Client"). This Agreement governs the Client’s access to and use of Floresta’s creative services ("Services"), including final creative outputs produced in response to accepted Service requests (“Deliverables”), and Floresta's credit-based system, plans, pricing structures, and any related rules, policies, or offerings.
- By making any payment to Floresta, the Client acknowledges, understands, and agrees to be bound by this Agreement. If the Client is an organization, the individual accepting this Agreement represents and warrants that they have the authority to bind the organization to this Agreement.
- Any payment to Floresta serves as explicit acceptance of this Agreement, and no separate signed contract is required for it to be legally enforceable. If the Client does not agree to this Agreement, they should not proceed with payment or engage Floresta’s Services.
- Amendment & Modification of the Agreement
- Floresta reserves the right to update or modify this Agreement at any time. The most current version of this Agreement will always be available on Floresta’s website.
- Unless otherwise stated, any updates or modifications apply prospectively only and do not retroactively alter Credits already purchased, active plans, or pricing that has been expressly locked in under this Agreement.
- The Client’s continued engagement with Floresta, including making additional payments after an updated version of this Agreement becomes effective, constitutes acceptance of the revised Agreement as it applies to transactions occurring after such effective date.
2. Floresta Platform
Last updated 2026.01
- Business Model: Floresta operates on a credit-based model for providing Services. "Credits" are non-monetary units that Clients purchase and use to request eligible Services from Floresta.
- Credits have no cash value, are not legal tender, are not stored value, and may not be transferred, sold, refunded, or exchanged.
- Purchasing Credits: Credits may be purchased individually or as part of predefined Credit packs ("Packs"). Upon successful payment, purchased Credits are added to the Client’s account balance and may be used in accordance with this Agreement.
- Partnerships: Floresta also offers recurring plans ("Partnerships"), under which Clients receive a recurring monthly allocation of Credits at a locked-in price.
- Partnerships require a minimum two (2) month commitment. Early cancellation does not result in refunds or waived fees.
- Partnerships are retainers for Services and do not create any employment relationship, joint venture, fiduciary duty, or exclusivity unless expressly agreed in writing.
- Clients enrolled in a Partnership are referred to as "Partners".
- Using Credits: Credits may only be used to request Services offered and accepted by Floresta. Credits do not guarantee availability, delivery timelines, priority, or acceptance of any particular request.
- No Client, including Partners, may spend more than sixty (60) Credits within a single calendar month, regardless of available Credit balance.
3. Client Rules
Last updated 2026.02
- Non-Partner Clients
- Purchase Limits: Non-Partner Clients may purchase no more than one (1) Pack per calendar month.
- Credit Rollover: Unused Credits roll over from one calendar month to the next. Beginning with the first full calendar month following a credit purchase, no more than ten (10) unused Credits may roll over into any subsequent calendar month. Any unused Credits above this amount will lapse at the end of the applicable calendar month.
- Inactivity Lapse: Any remaining unused Credits will lapse in full if the Client does not spend or purchase Credits for a continuous period of four (4) months. Communication, planning, or expressions of intent do not constitute activity.
- Partner Clients
- Monthly Credit Allocation: Partners receive a recurring monthly allocation of Credits based on their selected Partnership tier, billed on a monthly basis. Pricing for a Partner’s tier and any higher tiers is locked in at the time the Partnership begins, unless otherwise stated in writing.
- Credit Rollover: Unused Credits roll over from one calendar month to the next. A Partner’s total Credit balance may not exceed one hundred forty percent (140%) of the Partner’s monthly Credit allocation. Any Credits exceeding this amount will lapse at the end of the applicable billing cycle.
- Pausing: Partners may pause their Partnership for an upcoming billing cycle by providing advance notice before the start of that cycle.
- During a paused cycle, no payment is due and no new Credits are allocated. Existing Credits remain available. Paused billing cycles do not count toward inactivity for purposes of Credit lapse.
- A Partnership may be paused no more than three (3) times per calendar year. Pauses may not be initiated mid-cycle and may not be chained consecutively.
- The first month of a Partnership may not be paused.
- Boosting: Partners may boost an upcoming billing cycle to a higher tier by paying the difference between tiers.
- Boosts apply to a single billing cycle only and automatically revert to the original tier in the following cycle.
- A Partnership may be boosted no more than four (4) times per calendar year. Boosts may not be initiated mid-cycle and may not be chained consecutively.
- The first month of a Partnership may not be boosted.
- Upgrading and Downgrading: Partners may upgrade or downgrade their Partnership, effective at the start of the next billing cycle.
- Partners may upgrade to any higher tier. Upgrades enter the higher tier at the Partner’s locked-in pricing.
- Partners may downgrade to any lower tier. Downgrades enter the lower tier at the current publicly listed rate, which then becomes locked in for that tier and any higher tiers.
- Cancellation of a Partnership stops future billing and Credit allocations. Any remaining Credits may be used in accordance with this Agreement, including applicable usage limits, but are non-refundable and remain subject to applicable rollover and inactivity rules.
4. Payment
Last updated 2026.01
- Credit Purchases: Clients may purchase Credits individually, as Packs, or through a Partnership. All Credit purchases are prepaid, must be paid in full at the time of purchase, and are added to the Client’s account only after successful payment.
- Recurring Billing: Partnerships are billed on a recurring basis according to the selected tier. By enrolling in a Partnership, the Client authorizes Floresta to automatically charge the applicable recurring fee at the start of each billing cycle.
- Pauses, boosts, upgrades, and downgrades affect billing only as expressly described in this Agreement and do not create refunds or credits unless explicitly stated in writing.
- Refunds: All payments made to Floresta are non-refundable, including payments for unused Credits, whether purchased individually, as part of a Pack, or through a Partnership, except where required by applicable law.
- Unused Credits do not constitute a refundable balance, deposit, or stored value.
- Payment Reversal and Disputes: If a payment is reversed or disputed, Floresta reserves the right to suspend access to Credits, pause work requests, or terminate the Client’s access to the Services until payment is successfully resolved.
- Floresta may recover any Credits used or Services requested in connection with a disputed or reversed payment.
- Pricing Changes: Floresta reserves the right to modify Credit pricing, Pack sizes and pricing, and Partnership sizes and pricing on a prospective basis, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement regarding existing Credits and locked-in pricing.
- Floresta also reserves the right to modify, on a prospective basis, the number of Credits required for specific Services, provided that such changes do not retroactively affect work already completed or work that has been expressly agreed to in writing and is currently in progress.
- Accepted Payment Methods: Floresta does not accept payment via checks, cash, or peer-to-peer payment services such as Venmo or Zelle.
