By using the Website, the User is confirming that it is legally entitled to use the means of payment tendered and, in the case of card payments, that the User is either the cardholder or has the cardholder's express permission to use the card to make payment. We may refuse to process a transaction or refuse Service to anyone at any time in our sole discretion, for any reason that does not violate applicable law. We shall not be liable to User or any third party by reason of refusing or suspending any transaction, regardless of whether processing has begun.

 

Unless stated otherwise, all fees and payments are quoted in U.S. Dollars. The User is responsible for paying all fees, payments, and applicable taxes associated with our Website and Services.

 

All sales are final, and we do not offer refunds unless otherwise explicitly stated in specific cases or as otherwise required by applicable law.

 

You agree that the charges on a credit card, debit card, or other form of payment through the Website or for Services are undisputable and may not be charged back, contested, or challenged at any time, provided that we have honored the terms applicable to the purchase. In the event of a chargeback, we reserve the right to report the account to credit bureaus as delinquent, turn the charges over to a collection agency, and pursue any other legal remedy. You agree that our proof of purchase is legally sufficient for the credit card company, banking institution, or other payment agency to deny a chargeback to you.

 

Access, User Accounts, and Content

 

Users can create accounts, provide personal information, and upload content to the Website. However, we reserve the right to remove or moderate any user-provided content that violates our guidelines or infringes on third-party rights. You must notify us immediately of any breach of security, unauthorized use of your account, or infringement on third-party rights that you become aware of at the following email address: tara@sanityplea.com

 

We may change, suspend, or discontinue the Services, the Website, and terms of use of the Website (including this Agreement and the Privacy Policy) at any time without notice, including the availability of any feature or content. We may also impose limits on certain features and Services or restrict User's access to parts or all of the Services without notice or liability.

 

The User certifies that it is legally permitted to use the Website, represents that it has all necessary permissions to provide us with the personal data to fulfill this Agreement, and takes full responsibility for the selection and use of the Website and Services. This Agreement is void where prohibited by law, and the right to access the Website and Services is revoked in such jurisdictions.

 

Services Involving Other Users

 

If you participate in any Services that involve other users, such as masterclasses, you agree to abide by any attendance criteria provided. If you are disruptive or abusive during any such Services, or you violate any of the attendance criteria, we reserve the right to expel you with no refund.

 

We are not responsible or liable for the conduct of other users involved in any such Services, regardless of any attendance criteria or otherwise. 

 

No Offer

 

Nothing on the Website or on our social media pages constitutes an offer. In all cases, the provision of Services is subject to our prior approval based on particular circumstances. We reserve the right to refuse to provide, and to discontinue providing, Services for any reason that does not violate applicable law. The terms, including pricing, of Services are subject to change.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may disclose your information for certain reasons, including if required by law, court order, subpoena, or ethical rules or to address any imminent health or safety issue or illegal activity (e.g., plans of suicide, threats of violence, apparent need for immediate medical attention, or suspicion of abuse, neglect, or exploitation by any person of a protected class of individual, such as children, persons with disabilities, or the elderly, etc.).

 

You agree not to disclose to TSP any information (via the Website, Services, or otherwise) that you are required to keep confidential, such as the confidences of your clients (e.g., if you are an attorney, law clerk, physician, therapist, etc.) or confidential business information of your employer that you are obligated not to disclose (by law or by contract). Do not disclose any health information via the Website or Services.
