If paying by debit card or credit card, you give us 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.

If you enroll in a monthly subscription program or payment installments, your card will be charged each month on the same day of the month as you signed up. If your payment is not received by the date due, you will have a three (3) day grace period to make the payment, otherwise the Program will not continue and we reserve the right to terminate your access to the Program and all Content immediately and permanently.

4. Refunds
We believe you will get the results You want from Our Program, so long as you put the time, effort, and deep intention into achieving Your results. We believe that Our unique, one-of-a-kind Program will change how you view your career, how you choose to develop your geotechnical practice, and how you approach developing your expertise. But, We know things do not always work out, and we want you to be happy, whether or not you decide to stick with the Program. So, We provide a standard 30-day money-back guarantee (“Standard Guarantee”) for the Program that may be extended to a 45-day money-back guarantee if You signed up under the extended money-back guarantee offer (“Extended Guarantee”).
For the Standard Guarantee, within 30 days of your date of purchase, email newterrainacademy@gmail.com and let us know WHY you would like a refund by the 30th day at 11:59 EST.
For the Extended Guarantee, within 45 days of your date of purchase, email newterrainacademy@gmail.com and let us know WHY you would like a refund by the 45th day at 11:59 EST. If Your refund is approved then Your initial payment will be refunded, your membership will be cancelled, and all future subscription payments will be stopped.
Because We believe in the value of our coaching and educational services, We want you to get maximum value out of our Program, even if that happens as you cancel your members-only access to the Program and request a refund. In your email requesting a refund, You agree to include the following to justify WHY you are dissatisfied with the Program:
- A detailed description of the amount of time you put into viewing the online modules and lessons, completing worksheets and homework assignments, and participating in the online forums, live Q&A sessions, and coaching sessions;

We will NOT provide refunds for any request that comes more than 45 days following the date of purchase. After day 45, all payments are non-refundable and you are responsible for full payment of the fees for the Program regardless of whether you complete the Program. Request for refunds after 45 days from the date of purchase will not be considered and no refunds will be granted after 45 days. Refunds are NOT eligible for certification courses that have been completed and therefore certificates have been issued.
Upon determining that you are entitled to a refund pursuant to this policy, the Company will promptly issue an instruction to its payment processor to issue the refund. The Company does not control its payment processor and will not be able to expedite any refunds. The Company also reserves the right to issue a refund by paper check or bank wire transfer.

If a charge-back is placed on a purchase or we receive a charge-back 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 charge-back 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.

Inherent risks are risks that cannot be eliminated completely regardless of the care and precautions taken by Releasees. You are fully aware of the risks and hazards inherent in participating in Program and voluntarily, knowingly and freely assume all risks associated with participating in the Program, including, but not limited to, bruising, muscle strains, joint sprains, falls, injuries, illnesses, infections, paralysis and even death. This includes injury or damage sustained while and/or resulting from using any premises or facility, or using any equipment (whether owned, operated, or provided to you by Releasees or otherwise), including injuries or damages arising out of the negligence of Releasees, whether active or passive, or any of Releasees’ affiliates, employees, coaches, agents, representatives, successors, and assigns.

d. The Program and Content provide information and education only, and do not provide any financial, legal, medical or psychological services or advice. None of the Program or Content prevents, cures or treats any mental or medical condition. The Program and Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice that can be provided by your own accountant, lawyer, financial advisor, or medical professional. You are responsible for your own financial, legal, physical, mental and emotional well-being, decisions, choices, actions and results.

The Company disclaims any liability for your reliance on any opinions or advice contained in the Program.
e. You agree that you will not use coaching as a way of diagnosing or treating mental disorders as defined by the American Psychiatric Association. If you are in therapy or under the care of a mental health professional, you will notify and consult with the mental health care provider regarding your decision whether to work with a coach.
f. You acknowledge that, by engaging with the Company for the Program, you voluntarily assume an element of inherent risk, and knowingly and freely assume all risk and responsibility for injuries to any persons or damages to any property, and release, covenant not to sue, and hold Releasees harmless for any and all liability to you, your personal representatives, assigns, heirs and next of kin, for any and all claims, causes of action, obligations, lawsuits, charges, complaints, controversies, damages, costs or expenses of whatsoever kind, nature, or description, whether direct or indirect, in law or in equity, in contract or in tort, or otherwise, whether known or unknown, arising out of or connected with your participation in the Program, whether or not caused by the active or passive negligence of the Releasees. This release is not intended as an attempted release of claims of gross negligence or intentional acts by Releasees.
In the event that the release and hold harmless provision is held unenforceable for any reason, you agree to limit any damages claimed to the total paid to the Company for the Program.
g. Earnings and Results Disclaimer: You agree that Company has not made and does not make any representations about the earnings or results you may receive as a result of your participation in the Program.

h. Any links to third-party products, services, or sites are subject to separate terms and conditions. The Company is not responsible for or liable for any content on or actions taken by such third-party company or website. Although the Company may recommend third-party sites, products or services, it is your responsibility to fully research such third parties before entering into any transaction or relationship with them.
i. The Company tries to ensure that the availability and delivery of the Program and Content is uninterrupted and error-free. However, the Company cannot guarantee that your access will not be suspended or restricted from time to time, including to allow for repairs, maintenance or updates, although, of course, we will try to limit the frequency and duration of suspension or restriction.
j. THE INFORMATION, PRODUCTS AND SERVICES OFFERED ON OR THROUGH THE PROGRAM AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PROGRAM OR ANY OF ITS FUNCTIONS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT ANY PART OF THE COMPANY’S WEBSITE, INCLUDING MEMBERSHIP PAGES, OR THE SERVERS THAT MAKE IT AVAILABLE, ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
k. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES THAT RESULT FROM THE USE OF, OR THE INABILITY TO USE, THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING ITS MATERIALS, PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, OR THIRD-PARTY MATERIALS, PRODUCTS OR SERVICES MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE PROGRAM.
15) Limited Liability
Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Company makes no guarantees, representations or warranties of any kind or nature, express or implied with respect to the coaching services negotiated, agreed upon and rendered. In no event shall the Company be liable to You for any indirect, consequential or special damages. Notwithstanding any damages that You may incur, the Company’s entire liability under this Agreement, and the Your exclusive remedy, shall be limited to the amount actually paid by You to the Company under this Agreement for the Program, all coaching services rendered through and including the termination date.
16) Accreditation
In the United States, there exists no official accrediting institution or governing body in the life coaching industry. There are no regulations or required certifications to practice life coaching.

The Company does not provide any services for consulting on professional geology or engineering projects and will ignore or reject any such requests for those services. No professional geologic or engineering advice will be provided to You for personal use nor for use for third-parties such as your geology and engineering clients. Any content that resembles professional geology or engineering advice or services such that it requires a professional license to perform is purely a coincidence.

The Company does not guarantee the security of any information transmitted via the Internet, telephone, video conference, or other electronic media.

23) Severability
If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be valid and enforceable.

25) Entire Agreement; Modifications
