The Terms Between Us

What Is Ours, And What Is Yours

Everything that makes Lois what it is belongs to Lamoureux Lane: the name, the Role Atelier™ and the Career Studio, the questions they ask and the order they ask them in, the shape of the invitation they produce, and every word, image and design on lois.careers. None of it may be reproduced, adapted or published anywhere else without our written permission.

What you tell us is a different matter, and it stays yours. A woman’s Portrait is hers, in her own words, to change or take down whenever she wants. A business’s answers about its own work are its own.

When those answers become an invitation on Lois, the invitation itself is our work — the composition, not the facts inside it — and we license it to you for use here. Take your answers anywhere you like. The Atelier™ that drew them out of you, and the thing it made, stay with us.

Who LOIS Is Built For

Women of fifty and over. Fifty rather than fifty-five, chosen deliberately and chosen early. What you bring is thirty years of judgement, and that is exactly the point.

What You Can Count On

The core of LOIS is free to you, and stays free. Every role carries its salary on the face of the card, so you learn what the work pays before you give up an evening. Your Portrait is yours to edit, pause or close whenever you please.

What LOIS Counts On From You

That the working life you describe is the one you lived. That the roles you reach for are ones you mean to pursue. Two ordinary courtesies, and they are the whole list.

For Employers And Agencies

One credit publishes one role, and it stays live until she is found rather than expiring on a calendar. Credits last two years from the day you buy them. A single role is $159, and the price per role falls as you take more.

A role you publish carries its salary. That is a condition of being here on LOIS rather than a preference, and it applies to every role without exception.

When Plans Change

Credits you have not spent come back to you, whenever you ask. A role already published has had what it was bought for, so that one stays spent. Write and a person answers — there is no form for this.

If These Terms Change

We write to you first, in a letter that says what moved and why. The date this page last changed sits at the foot of it.

Where We Stand

LOIS is one of the five social enterprises under Madame Monet Social Impact, and these terms are governed by Australian law.
