5. Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure
In order to assist Company in performing its obligations under these TOU, Company may have access to some of your confidential information. For purposes of these TOU, “Confidential Information” includes all information or material that has or could have commercial value or other utility in the business in which you are engaged, or to your customers or their business, and which is not generally known to the public.
Company is not legally bound to keep your information confidential. Nevertheless, Company agrees not to disclose the aforementioned information to third parties unless Company first obtains written permission from you permitting disclosure of such information, 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 agree you will not share any recorded coaching calls or third-party forum postings outside the private member areas of the Company’s 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 Programs and Content.
This confidentiality and non-disclosure Section of these TOU will survive the termination of these TOU.
6. Refunds
Your satisfaction with the Programs and Content is important to the Company. However, because of the extensive time, effort, preparation and care that goes into creating and providing the Program, the Company has a no refund policy. Unless otherwise provided by law, you acknowledge that the Company does not offer refunds for any portion of your payment for any portion of the Programs and no refunds will be provided to you at any time.

Furthermore, if a participant violates these TOU, the Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to offer the participant another opportunity to abide by these TOU. If a participant disagrees with the Company offering another participant a second opportunity to follow these TOU, no grounds for a participant to receive a refund would be created, and any request for a refund on this basis will be denied.
If, in the Company’s sole right and discretion, you persist with behaviors or actions that violate these TOU, the Company may terminate your access and participation in the Programs without notice and without refund.
Since the Company has a clear and explicit refund policy in these TOU that you have agreed to prior to completing the purchase of the Program, the Company does not tolerate or accept any type of chargeback threat or actual chargeback from your credit card company or payment processor. If a chargeback is placed on a purchase or the Company receives a chargeback threat during or after your purchase, the Company reserves 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.
