PLEASE NOTE: If you request and receive a refund for any product, service, or course as part of any of our 100% money back guarantees, you will be allowed to purchase other products, services or courses in the future, or even the same product, service or course in the future; but, in doing so, you acknowledge that you waive your right to a refund on any and all of those future purchases, at any time, for any reason. In other words, you can’t get a refund more than once. To put it plainly: if you receive a refund for one thing, choose to buy something else, and then want another refund, we’re clearly just not the right fit for each other.
Your satisfaction with our products and services is important to us. However, because of the extensive time, effort, preparation and care that goes into creating and providing these programs, other than what is stated for each program purchased, we have a no refund policy. Unless otherwise provided by law, you acknowledge that we do not offer refunds for any portion of your payment for our programs and no refunds will be provided to you at any time. By using and/or purchasing our digital products, you understand and agree that all sales are final and no refunds will be provided.

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.
