Submissions and Unsolicited Ideas Policies

We are interested in hearing from our visitors and welcome your comments regarding our products and services. It is, however, our policy that we will not accept or consider unsolicited submissions of creative materials such as (but not limited to) ideas, concepts, stories, original artwork, suggestions or other potential creative material and content (collectively, the "Submissions"). The intent of this policy is to protect our creative development process and to avoid the possibility of future misunderstandings when projects developed by Guardstone might seem to others to be similar to their own creative work. We therefore ask that you not share and disclose any Submissions with us.

If, despite our request not to, you do send us Submissions, these Submissions shall be deemed and shall remain our property, and Guardstone shall be entitled to unrestricted use of the Submissions for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to the provider of the Submissions. None of the Submissions shall be subject to any obligation of confidence on our part and we shall not be liable for any use or disclosure of any Submissions.
