Should you be provided with a PayPal or QuickBooks invoice, you are required to pay upon receipt, or your Products and Services will be put on hold and suspended until payment is made.

If you fail to make payment in a timely manner in accordance with these Terms of Use, or if you voluntarily decide to withdraw from our Products and Services at any time or for any reason whatsoever, you still will remain fully responsible for the entire cost of the Products and Services.

We also reserve our right to seek payment from you for any delinquent payment that is not provided by or upon the date due by enlisting the help of a collection agency or legal counsel, and we may exercise our right to report your delinquent payment to all three credit reporting agencies, either directly or through the help of a collection agency.

Chargeback Threats, Reversal of Payment, Payment Cancellations, and Actual Chargebacks

Since we have a clear and explicit refund policy in these Terms of Use that you have agreed to prior to completing the purchase of any of our Products and Services, you agree that any type of chargeback threat, reversal of payment, payment cancellation, actual chargeback or claim from your credit card company, Stripe, PayPal, financial institution, or any other payment service will constitute a breach of these Terms of Use on your part.

In the event that a chargeback, reversal of payment, or payment cancellation is initiated by you or we receive a chargeback threat, we reserve the right to report the incident to all three credit reporting agencies, or any other entity for inclusion in any chargeback database or for listing as a delinquent account, which could have a negative impact on your credit report score. The information reported will include your name, email address, payment date, payment amount, and billing address. Chargeback abusers wishing to be removed from the database shall make the payment for the amount of the chargeback.

Payment processing companies and merchants may have privacy and data collection practices and policies that are different from ours, we have no responsibility or liability for these independent policies of the payment processing companies and merchants. In addition, when you make certain purchases through our Products and Services, you may be subject to the additional terms and conditions of the payment processing company, merchant, or us that specifically apply to your purchase.

We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address.

If you have booked a “Founder Call” or “Education Experience”, “Project Consult”, “Advisory Retainer” or any other meeting with us in any medium including but not limited to by telephone, Zoom call, (“Appointment”) and you need to reschedule or cancel, you must contact us at least 24 hours in advance so we may select an alternative and mutually agreeable time for your make-up session. However, for appointments that you attempt to reschedule or cancel less than 24 hours in advance of the scheduled time of the Appointment, you forfeit the Appointment and you will not have the opportunity to reschedule it or make it up.

Missed Appointments.

Should you miss your scheduled Appointment without providing at least 24 hours advance notice, you forfeit it.

We do not offer refunds for any missed appointments where you failed to provide at least 24 hours’ notice or for any appointments which you attempted to reschedule or cancel less than 24 hours in advance of the scheduled time.

Termination

You have the right to terminate your use of or participation in our Products or Services at any time by contacting us IN WRITING, including by e-mail.

We reserve the right in our sole discretion to refuse or terminate your access to our Products and Services in full or in part, at any time, without notice, by sending you an email to the email address you provided to us during registration or enrolment.

In the event of cancellation or termination by either of us, you will have 24 hours to pay any and all remaining payments or balances that are owed to us.

Upon termination by either of us, we reserve the right to immediately refuse or terminate your access to any aspect of our Products and Services, including but not limited to our website, private forum, email communications, Facebook groups, Zoom calls, recordings of any such communications, or any other method of communications related to our Products and Services at any time without notice and in our sole discretion.

Dispute Resolution

 It is hoped that should we ever have any differences, we will be able to work them out amicably through email correspondence and telephone conference calls. However, should we be unable to seek resolution within a reasonable time as determined in our sole discretion, you agree now that the only method of legal dispute resolution that will be used is binding arbitration before a single arbitrator who practices in the province of Ontario, selected jointly by us. Before seeking arbitration, you must contact us in writing, and include all of your reasons for dissatisfaction with your program, Products and Services. You understand and agree now that the only remedy that can be awarded to you through arbitration is full refund of your payment made to date. No other actions or financial awards of consequential damages, punitive or aggravated damages, or any other type of damages, may be granted to you. We both agree now that the decision of the arbitrator is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction in Ontario.

By purchasing our Products and Services, you are agreeing to a modification of the statute of limitations such that any arbitration must be begun within one (1) year of the date of your email referenced above or you waive the right to seek dispute resolution by arbitration or to take any other legal action against us.

You also agree that should arbitration take place, it will be held in the City of Toronto, in the Province of Ontario, Canada, as this is where our business is located, and you further agree that the winning party shall be entitled to all reasonable lawyer’s fees and all costs necessary to enforce the decision of the arbitrator.

In the event of a dispute between us, you agree to not engage in any conduct or communications, whether in public or in private including but not limited to on social media, either directly or indirectly, designed to disparage us, our company, or any of our Products and Services. Where requested by law or arbitration, of course, you are not prohibited from sharing your thoughts and opinions as part of the legal process.

Survival

These Terms of Use, including but not limited to all copyright, trademark, and intellectual property rights, disclaimers, limitations of liability, release of claims, and our refund policy will survive the termination of our agreement by either you or by us.
