1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing the Mandatory Fun website (mandatoryfun.games), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree, please close this browser window now and NEVER COME BACK.

2. About Us

Mandatory Fun provides corporate fun consulting services including but not limited to: pizza party consulting and logistics, clown deployment, string distribution, balloon-based ice breaking with industry leading best-in-class balloon-led outsourcing consulting, and remote beverage coordination consultations (18+ only).

All services are provided in good faith and with the appropriate level of service that we consider to be appropriate.

3. Services

Service descriptions on this website are intended to be accurate representations of the services provided. When we say we will send a clown to your office, we mean to send a clown to your office.

Mandatory Fun reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any service at any time.

4. Pricing & Payment

All prices are listed in Australian Dollars (AUD) unless otherwise stated. Prices are exclusive of GST unless explicitly marked as inclusive. Consulting fees are separate from the cost of goods (pizza, string, balloons, clown transportation).

5. Intellectual Property

All content on this website, including text, graphics, is the property of Mandatory Fun or its content suppliers and is protected by Australian and international copyright laws.

The MIDI file "corpo_vibes.mid" is an original composition and may not be reproduced without written permission.

6. User Conduct

Users of this website agree not to:

• Reject the clown's advice during "coach the Agile coach" educational sessions
• Use the guestbook for anything other than glowing praise
• Turn their camera off during a Zoom Saloon
• Claim that the Fun with String wasn't fun
• Reverse engineer our proprietary Pizza Optimization Framework

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Mandatory Fun shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from:

• The use or inability to use our services
• Any clown-related incidents
• Misuse of supplied products
• Friendships that failed to form during Ice Breaking exercises

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy conferred on you by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable law that cannot be excluded, restricted, or modified by agreement.

8. Governing Law

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Australia. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Australia.

Mandatory Fun is committed to protecting your personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). This policy describes how we collect, hold, use, and disclose your personal information.

1. Information We Collect

Guestbook submissions: If you sign our guestbook, we collect the information you voluntarily provide: your name, email address (optional), company name (optional), and message.

Theme preferences: Your selected theme (Unwashed, AI Washed, or Green Washed) is stored in your browser's localStorage. We do not track which theme you choose.

Visitor counter: The visitor counter is also localStorage-based. The number is stored on your device only. It is merely an accurate estimate of site visitors.

2. How We Use Your Information

If you contact us via email (hello@mandatoryfun.games) or through any future contact form, we may use your personal information to:

• Respond to your enquiry
• Provide the services you have requested
• Send a clown to your office (with your consent, which is assumed upon booking). SOME clowns will be free trial clowns. You never know if you won a free trial until they show up.
• Comply with our legal obligations

We will not use your information for direct marketing unless you have explicitly opted in.

3. Disclosure to Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may disclose your information to:

• Our service providers (e.g., pizza delivery platforms, clown agencies) as necessary to deliver the services you have requested
• Law enforcement or regulatory bodies if required by law
• The clown, but only your first name and office address

4. Data Storage & Security

Any personal information provided to us via email is stored securely. We take reasonable steps to protect your information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure.

As noted above, the website itself stores data exclusively in your browser's localStorage. We have no database. This is simultaneously the most and least secure approach possible.

5. Cookies & Tracking

This website does not use cookies. It uses localStorage, which is like a cookie that went to university and came back with opinions. We do not use any third-party analytics or tracking tools.

6. Your Rights

Under the Australian Privacy Principles, you have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of any inaccurate information
• Complain about a breach of the Australian Privacy Principles

To exercise any of these rights, or to clear your guestbook data, you can either email us at hello@mandatoryfun.games or simply clear your browser's localStorage. We recommend the latter as it is faster and does not require interacting with a clown.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this page daily, though we understand if you have better things to do.

8. Contact

For privacy-related enquiries, please contact:
The Webmaster
Email: hello@mandatoryfun.games

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at www.oaic.gov.au.

1. General Refund Policy

We want you to be satisfied with our services. If you are not, that is technically still a form of feeling the mandatory fun vibe, which counts as team building.

Nevertheless, refunds may be available in the following circumstances:

2. Services Not Yet Delivered

If you have booked a service that has not yet been delivered, you may cancel and receive a full refund, provided:

• Cancellation is made at least 99 hours before the scheduled service
• The clown has not already been dispatched
• The string has not already been packaged and sent
• The pizzas have not been ordered

3. Services Already Delivered

For services that have been delivered:

• Pizza Party Services: No refund on the consulting fee. If the pizza itself is unsatisfactory, take it up with the delivery partner or the Pizza store.
• Infantilisation Packages: No refund once materials have been distributed. You may keep the gold star stickers.
• Fun with String: No refund. The string was delivered. What you expected to happen after that is between you and your Agile coach, and your own imagination.
• Ice Breaking with Balloon Animals: No refund for popped balloons. No refund for blown up balloons, or balloons in the process of being blown up.
• Zoom Saloon: No refund once beverages have been dispatched to participant addresses.
• No refund for any item that was touched by a smelly person.

4. Clown Consulting: Special Provisions

5. How to Request a Refund

To request a refund, please email hello@mandatoryfun.games with:

• Your name and company
• The service you booked
• The date of service
• The reason for your refund request
• Once your clown is dispatched, it cannot be returned

We will respond to refund requests within 14 business days. Approved refunds will be processed to the original payment method within 30 business days.

6. Exceptions

Refunds will not be provided where:

• You simply changed your mind about having fun
• An employee actually enjoyed themselves
• The string was different to what was expected
• The clown was turned away, abused, or unable to perform general clowning duties unhindered by corporate bureaucracy

7. Consumer Guarantees

This refund policy does not limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. If our services have a major failure, you are entitled to cancel and receive a refund, or to keep the arrangement and be compensated for any reduction in value. If the failure is minor, we must provide the services again within a reasonable time or compensate you.

For the purposes of this clause, the clown being "unsettling" does not constitute a major failure. That is a feature.
