MEMBERSHIP:

You are only eligible to join The Feminist Self-Help Society as a member if you are at least 18 years old and currently identify as a woman or you were raised and socialized as a woman.  Some of the content in the Program may not be appropriate for children. The Company hereby disclaims all liability for use by individuals under the age of 18.  

Members of The Feminist Self-Help Society  receive certain benefits, including the ability to: (i) join a social media group exclusively for members; (ii) purchase tickets for live events offered by the Company; and (iii) anonymously submit “Ask the Coach” questions, responses to which will be publicly posted in the members’ social media group.  The Company reserves the right to add to, modify or discontinue any or all of these benefits at any time with or without notice. 

PAYMENTS, CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS:  You agree to pay the fees listed on the checkout page for the Program you have selected.  Recurring monthly payments will be charged to your card on the same calendar day each month (if, for example, you join on April 12, your card will be charged again on May 12, June 12, and so on); recurring annual payments will be charged to your card on the same day, each year after you join (if, for example, you join on April 28, 2019, your card would be charged April 28, 2020 and so on).

You may cancel your membership in The Feminist Self-Help Society at any time at least forty-eight (48) hours before the next billing date.  After giving notice of cancellation, you will be immediately removed from all social media groups, but may access materials provided on the Website until the end of the current billing cycle, subject to these Terms.

If paying by debit card or credit card, you give the Company permission to automatically charge your credit or debit card for all fees and charges due and payable to the Company, without any additional authorization, for which you will receive an electronic receipt.  You also agree that the Company is authorized to share any payment information and instructions required to complete the payment transactions with its third-party payment service providers (e.g., credit card transaction processing, merchant settlement, and related services).

Payment in full or the first installment in a payment plan is required before you will be permitted to participate in any Program.  If you fail to make payment in a timely manner or voluntarily decide to withdraw from any Program at any time or for any reason, you will remain responsible for the full cost of all payments in any payment plan you choose.

The Company reserves the right to charge a late fee on all balances more than 30 days overdue. You agree to reimburse the Company for all collection and/or legal fees and expenses necessitated by lateness or default in payment.

The Company reserves the right to adjust the fees for the Program and payment terms, and will give advance notice to you of any changes by email.

In the event that payment is not received by the date due, you will have a five (5) day grace period to make the payment, otherwise we reserve the right to terminate your access to the Program immediately and permanently.

Unless otherwise provided by law, all purchases for goods or services of any kind are final and non-refundable. Since the Company has a clear and explicit Refund Policy that you have agreed to prior to completing your purchase, the Company does not tolerate or accept any type of chargeback threat or actual chargeback from your credit card company or payment processor. In the event that a chargeback is placed on a purchase, or we receive a chargeback threat during or after your purchase, we reserve the right to report the incident to all three credit reporting agencies or to 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, order date, order amount, and billing address. Chargeback abusers wishing to be removed from the database shall make the payment for the amount of the chargeback.

YOUR CONDUCT, CONFIDENTIALITY:

Please choose carefully the materials that you upload to, submit to, or share on the Website or during any video or telephone call operated by the Company and any third-party forums operated by the Company.

Your relationship with the Company is not legally bound by confidentiality.  You acknowledge that our communications are not covered by a doctor-patient, attorney-client, or any other privilege.  The Company is not legally bound to keep your information confidential.

Any efforts you undertake to communicate with Company are done at your own risk.

Nevertheless, the Company agrees to take reasonable steps keep all information about its relationship with you private within the Website, in video or telephone calls, or in any third-party forums operated by the Company, except in very rare circumstances where disclosure is required by law, for example when a court might issue a subpoena for the file or information, or if you threaten to harm yourself or others.  You may authorize the Company to disclose your information to a third party by doing so in writing.

The Company may record coaching calls and share them on the Website, in the Program, or on third-party forums operated by the Company.

You agree you will not share any recorded coaching calls or third-party forum postings outside the private member areas of the Website or any third-party forums operated by the Company.  If the Company discovers you have done so, this will be grounds for immediate termination of your access to the Program and Content.

You are responsible for your material and for any liability that may result from it.  You participate, comment, post, and disclose your material at your own risk.  Any communication by you on the Website or via a social media group, chat room, message board, public forum, chat bot, contact submission form or other interactive service, must be respectful.
