6. Refunds
Except as expressly stated for Hourly Studio cancellations in Exhibit B, all payments are non-refundable.
Metrognome may issue a refund outside those terms at its sole discretion. A discretionary refund is a one-time accommodation. It creates no entitlement, sets no precedent, and may be issued either as account credit or to the original payment method, at Metrognome's election.
Where a discretionary refund is issued at your request rather than to correct a Metrognome error, the payment processing costs already incurred on the original charge cannot be recovered, and the amount returned may be reduced by those costs. We will tell you the amount before issuing the refund.
The following are not eligible for a discretionary refund:
- Waitlist deposits that have already been applied to a membership invoice
- Credits, which are governed exclusively by Exhibit B
7. House Rules (All Members)
All Members must comply with posted rules, including but not limited to:
- No illegal activity
- No overnight sleeping
- No hazardous materials

Additional Hourly-specific rules are set forth in Exhibit B.
8. Monthly Membership–Specific Terms
The following provisions apply only to Monthly Memberships:
- Exclusive use of an Artist Studio
- On-site storage of equipment
- Studio inspections
- Suspension procedures
- Default, abandonment, and lien rights
These provisions do not apply to Hourly Studios.
9. Insurance & Risk
Metrognome does not insure Member property.
- Safestor Insurance is offered only to Monthly Members
- Hourly Members receive no insurance coverage
- All property is stored or brought onsite at the Member's sole risk
10. Termination & Right to Refuse
Metrognome may terminate or restrict any Membership or account at its sole discretion, with or without cause and with or without notice.
- A Member may terminate a Monthly Membership by providing at least thirty (30) days' written notice to Metrognome. The Member remains responsible for all fees accrued through the end of the notice period.
- A Member may close an Hourly Membership account at any time.
- Nothing in this section limits Metrognome's right to terminate, suspend, or restrict any Membership or account at any time, with or without notice, including immediately.
11. Limitation of Liability & Indemnification
Members agree to indemnify and hold Metrognome harmless from all claims arising from use of the Facility, including those caused by the Member or their guests.
12. Class Action Waiver
All disputes must be resolved on an individual basis. Class actions and representative proceedings are waived to the fullest extent permitted by law.
13. Governing Law
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Oregon.
14. Entire Agreement

Rescheduling
- You may reschedule a Session up to 24 hours before its start time; Metrognome staff may reschedule it on your request. The Session keeps its original length.
- The price is recalculated for the new time using the published hourly rates in effect when the change is made. If the new time costs more, the difference is charged; if it costs less, the difference is credited to your account instantly and applies automatically to your next purchase. Bookings paid with Credits get the Credits returned.
Saved Payment Methods
- Saving a card is optional and is not required to book.
- By saving your card, you authorize Metrognome to charge it, without you present, solely for the price difference when a Session you hold is rescheduled to a higher-priced time. This is the only such charge; there is no recurring or scheduled charge.
- The amount charged is the difference between the price you already paid and the price of the new time, calculated from the published hourly rates in effect when the change is made.
- Cards are stored by our payment processor, Stripe; Metrognome does not see or retain your full card number.
- You may remove a saved card at any time through the billing portal in your account, which stops any further charge.
