If we add features in the future that allow public submissions, those features will have their own posted rules.

A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.

  1. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DISCLOSURE

The book Calling Out the Shadows was written by Neal Winsomer over eight months of focused work. No narrative content was generated by artificial intelligence. The audiobook was recorded and narrated by the author. Grammar, formatting, and editing programs (including AI-assisted editing tools) were used for grammatical editing, proofreading, and consistency checks only.

For the Site itself, we may use AI-assisted tools for grammar, accessibility, search optimization, and similar production tasks. We do not publish AI-generated articles, biographies, or quotations attributed to the author. We disclose any future use of AI-generated visual or written content on the page where it appears.

We do not authorize the use of any content from this Site or from the book to train artificial intelligence or machine learning models without our prior written permission.

  1. ACCESSIBILITY

We are committed to making the Site accessible to people with disabilities and target conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level. Accessibility is an ongoing effort, and some areas of the Site may not yet meet the target. If you encounter an accessibility barrier, contact nealwinsomer@gmail.com and we will work to address it.

  1. THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND SERVICES

The Site links to third-party services and platforms, including social media accounts, podcast distributors, retailers, press wires, and review sites. We do not control those third parties and are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices. Use of those services is at your own risk and is governed by their terms.

  1. DISCLAIMERS

The Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

The book Calling Out the Shadows is one father’s account of his own experience and the framework he developed in response to it. It is not legal, medical, psychological, financial, or other professional advice. It is not a substitute for a lawyer, therapist, doctor, financial advisor, or other licensed professional. If you are dealing with a legal matter, a mental health concern, a custody dispute, a safety concern, or any other situation that requires professional help, consult a qualified professional in your jurisdiction.

References in the book and on the Site to behavioral patterns, communication patterns, and clinical concepts are descriptive observations drawn from the author’s personal experience and contemporaneous records. They are not diagnoses, professional opinions, or findings of fact about any third party. We make no representation about whether any pattern described applies to any specific person or situation.

The book is a memoir. References to communications, events, and patterns are based on the author’s recollection and the author’s contemporaneous records. Any resemblance to persons not specifically and intentionally identified is unintended, and no inference about any living person should be drawn from descriptive observations or composite illustrations used in the narrative.

Outcomes described in the book and on the Site are specific to the author’s circumstances. We make no guarantee that you will achieve similar outcomes by reading the book, applying any framework discussed, or using any tool described.

Statements throughout the book and the Site that characterize behavior or motive are statements of the author’s personal opinion based on his observations and his records. They are offered in good faith and are not asserted as objective findings against any third party.

  1. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will Neal Winsomer Publishing LLC, Neal Winsomer, our affiliates, members, officers, employees, contractors, agents, suppliers, or licensors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including damages for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, business interruption, personal injury, or emotional distress, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site or the book, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), statute, or any other legal theory, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

In no event will our aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Site or these Terms exceed one hundred U.S. dollars ($100.00) or the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, whichever is greater.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

  1. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Neal Winsomer Publishing LLC, Neal Winsomer, and our affiliates, members, officers, employees, contractors, agents, suppliers, and licensors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your use of the Site, (b) your violation of these Terms, (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property or privacy right, or (d) any content you submit to the Site.

  1. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. You and we agree to the sole jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Escambia County, Florida, for any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site, except where applicable law gives a consumer the right to bring a claim in their place of residence.

  1. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Before filing any lawsuit, you agree to first contact us at nealwinsomer@gmail.com with a clear description of the dispute and the resolution you are seeking, and to allow us thirty (30) days to respond and attempt to resolve the matter informally. This requirement does not prevent either party from seeking emergency injunctive relief or from pursuing claims in small-claims court.

  1. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when the most recent change was made. If we make material changes, we will post a notice on the Site. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

  1. SEVERABILITY AND ENTIRE AGREEMENT

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Site and supersede any prior agreements on the same subject.

No waiver by us of any term or condition will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term.
