Terms
These terms explain how working with A8 Legacy works: what you buy, how you pay, who owns what, and what happens if plans change. Every film and memoir also has its own written agreement, which you sign before we begin; where the two differ, your agreement wins.
Who we are
A8 Legacy is a brand of MetaMindful LLC, a California limited liability company. Jennifer Ninan, Remembrancer, does the work. Questions: hello@a8legacy.com.
What we make
- Films and memoirs: the Blessing Film & Letter, the Heirloom Film, the Legacy Memoir with Trailer, and the Life Feature, as described on Films and memoirs.
- The First Chapter Challenge, which is free.
- Printables, such as the Thanksgiving and Christmas Table Questions.
- Author services for finished books: the Author Launch, à la carte services, and the Author Partner retainer.
Prices and payment
- Prices are in US dollars and shown on the site. Founding rates apply only as stated.
- The Legacy Gift cards ($500 and $1,000), the $1,950 offers, printables and à la carte author services are paid by card through Stripe. Amounts of $3,000 and above are invoiced, with bank payment available.
- Larger projects follow the payment schedule shown for each one. Finished files and printed copies are released once the final payment is made.
- Sales tax is added where it applies.
Refunds and changes
- If our first conversation shows a book or film is not right for you, your deposit comes back in full. After that, what you have paid covers the work already done.
- The Legacy Gift card is refundable within 12 months if the parent decides not to go ahead after a first conversation.
- Credits: the Blessing Film & Letter counts toward an Heirloom Film or memoir within 12 months; the Legacy Gift card counts toward any film or memoir.
- Printables are digital downloads and are not refundable once downloaded. If a file will not open, write to us and we will send it again.
- The Author Partner retainer is billed monthly with a three-month minimum. After that, cancel any time with 30 days’ notice.
Your story, your words
- Detail may be heightened. Facts are never added. Every factual claim is checked against the recording.
- We use AI tools to transcribe conversations and draft passages from your own words. Jennifer rewrites every sentence and checks every fact.
- For an Heirloom Film made from an existing book, you confirm the book is yours to adapt.
Who owns the work
The storyteller owns the finished book and film on final payment: the manuscript, the cover and the files. When a son or daughter pays, they receive their own printed copies and a copy of the film files. We may not share any part of your story publicly without your written permission. Printables are licensed for use in your own home and may not be resold or shared publicly.
Delivery
Films arrive in a keepsake box with an engraved USB drive and a printed card, plus a private link for streaming and backup. Delivery dates are estimates agreed in your agreement. Travel for in-person visits is billed at cost, with an estimate you approve in advance.
If something goes wrong
If we cannot finish your project for any reason, your agreement names what happens: you are refunded everything except the deposit and receive the full transcript and every recording and draft so far. Our total responsibility for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the project concerned.
Privacy
How we handle your information is set out in our privacy notice.
Changes and law
We may update these terms; the effective date above will change when we do. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California.
