7. CANCELLATION POLICY
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Client cancellation 45 days or more before event: Deposit earned by Performer; no additional fees.
- Client cancellation fewer than 45 days before event: Full performance fee due.
- A request to postpone, reschedule, materially change the date, or move the performance to a new date is treated as a cancellation unless Dancer agrees in writing to apply some or all prior payments to a new date. Any rescheduled event requires written confirmation and may require a new agreement, new deposit, and/or price adjustment. Likewise, a change in location may require a price adjustment, to be negotiated in good faith.
- Dancer may, in Dancer's sole discretion, waive or reduce cancellation amounts, apply payments to a future booking, or decline to pursue amounts otherwise due. Any such waiver must be in writing and applies only to that specific booking.
Force Majeure: Force majeure applies only where performance is prevented or made unsafe by circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, such as severe weather, natural disaster, epidemic or public health emergency, government order or restriction, venue closure, serious illness or injury, civil unrest, interruption of essential transportation, or comparable emergency. Ordinary weather concerns, seasonal temperature changes, client preference, anticipated discomfort, or voluntary cancellation of the event do not constitute force majeure unless both parties agree in writing.
The affected party shall notify the other party as promptly as practicable. If a force majeure event prevents performance, the parties will make reasonable efforts to reschedule in good faith. A rescheduled date may require a price adjustment to reflect the market value of the new date, to be negotiated in good faith. If rescheduling is not feasible within 90 days of the original date, either party may terminate this Agreement by written notice. Any refund or credit will be determined under this Agreement after accounting for reasonable non-recoverable expenses already incurred by Dancer (such as travel, equipment rental, or rehearsal costs) and work already performed.
No-Show by Performer: Full refund of all amounts paid.

The fee paid under this Agreement is consideration for a live performance only and does not transfer, assign, or license to Client any ownership or intellectual property right in the Material, and no part of the performance is a work made for hire. Any reproduction, transcription, adaptation, or commercial exploitation of the Material requires a separate written agreement between the parties.
