The rules.
Clearly stated.
By using this website or purchasing any product from this platform, you agree to the terms set out below. They are written to be read — not buried in language designed to confuse you.

If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use this website or purchase from it.
What you can do here. And what you can't.
You may use this website for personal, non-commercial purposes. This means reading, downloading free resources you've opted in for, and purchasing products for your own personal use.
You may not:
- Reproduce, copy, or republish any content from this platform without explicit written permission
- Resell, redistribute, or share paid products with others who have not purchased them

What you're buying and what you get.
Not A Fucking Cinderella Story offers digital products including guides, templates, toolkits, and workbooks. All products are delivered digitally — there are no physical goods.
When you purchase a product, you receive a personal, non-transferable licence to use it for your own purposes. You do not own the intellectual property in the product. You may not share, resell, or distribute it.
Access to information and tools to help you navigate your situation. Not legal advice. Not a professional service. A licence to use the resource for your personal use only.
Digital products. Considered purchases.
Because all products sold on this platform are digital and delivered immediately upon purchase, we do not offer refunds as a standard policy. Once a digital product has been accessed or downloaded, it cannot be returned.
We stand behind the quality of everything sold here. If you have a genuine technical issue preventing access to a product you've purchased, contact us at tatum@notafuckingcinderellastory.com within 7 days of purchase and we will resolve it.
If you are in South Africa, your rights under the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 apply where relevant. Nothing in this refund policy is intended to override your statutory rights.
Straightforward. No hidden costs.
All prices are displayed at the point of purchase. Prices are listed in the currency shown at checkout and include any applicable taxes unless otherwise stated.
Payment is processed securely through our payment provider. We do not store your payment card details. By completing a purchase, you confirm that you are authorised to use the payment method provided.
We reserve the right to change pricing at any time. Price changes do not affect purchases already completed.
Everything here belongs to this platform.
All content on this website — including written guides, templates, tools, graphics, brand assets, copy, and the overall design and structure of the platform — is the intellectual property of Not A Fucking Cinderella Story and its founder, protected under applicable copyright and intellectual property law.
Purchasing a product gives you a personal licence to use that product. It does not transfer ownership of the underlying intellectual property.
Unauthorised reproduction, redistribution, or resale of any content from this platform may result in legal action.
Our responsibility. And yours.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Not A Fucking Cinderella Story and its founder accept no liability for any loss, damage, or harm arising from your use of this website or any product purchased from it.
This includes — but is not limited to — decisions made based on information found on this platform, outcomes of legal, financial, or personal actions taken after engaging with this content, or any technical issues affecting access to digital products.
You use this platform and its resources at your own risk. We provide information and tools in good faith — the decisions and actions you take with them are your own.
We link out. We don't control what's out there.
This website may contain links to third-party websites or resources. These links are provided for your convenience and information only. We do not control those websites, do not endorse their content, and accept no responsibility for any content, products, or services found on them.
Accessing any third-party website linked from this platform is at your own risk.
South African law governs these terms.
These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes arising from your use of this platform or any purchase made through it will be subject to the jurisdiction of the South African courts.
Where you are based in another country, local consumer protection laws may also apply to your purchase.

Clear terms. Fair terms.
Nothing hidden.
This platform was built to give women clarity — about their situations, their rights, and their options. The least we could do is apply that same standard to how we operate.
