The specific details of the membership services and digital content available to you are outlined on our website and within the membership platform. Information regarding live calls, including schedules, any events, and access instructions, will be communicated through the membership platform and/or via email. Please note, the delivery of certain live calls and content may be subject to specific schedules and availability. We will make every reasonable effort to adhere to advertised schedules. However, should there be any changes or delays, members will be notified in advance through the membership platform and/or via email.

Platform Delivery of Membership Services. Membership access may include courses, digital resources, and participation in community platforms hosted through third-party services such as Thinkific, Mighty Networks, or other learning and community platforms. Access to these services is provided as part of the Membership experience; however, participation in those environments remains governed by these Membership Terms and Conditions.

The Company reserves the right to change, update, or modify the platforms used to deliver membership services at its discretion.

Communication with Members. Our primary means of communicating with you regarding your membership, including updates, changes, or any pertinent information, will be through the membership platform and email. By subscribing to our Membership, you expressly consent to receive marketing communications and email communications from the Company. These communications may include information on new services, exclusive offers, and upcoming events that may be of interest to you. We are committed to delivering value in every communication and maintaining the relevance of our content to your interests. Should you decide to unsubscribe from our email communications, you may also be opting out of Membership email communications.

Scope of Membership Subject to Change. Our membership services and content are subject to periodic updates and enhancements. We reserve the right to add, modify, or discontinue any part of the membership content without prior notice, but with a commitment to providing value to our members.

Membership Fees, Payments, and Promotions. The membership fee is the amount listed on the Company’s website at the time of your purchase. By subscribing, you authorize us to charge the Authorized Payment Method on file for recurring subscription fees as per your chosen billing cycle (monthly, quarterly, annually). Subscriptions automatically renew at each cycle's end unless you cancel in writing before the renewal date, as detailed in our cancellation policy below:

Failed Payment Attempts: If an attempt to charge your Authorized Payment Method is unsuccessful, we will make additional attempts two days apart. After failed attempts, your subscription may be suspended or canceled, and you'll be notified to resolve payment issues within 30 days.

Collection of Unpaid Fees: Accounts with unpaid fees for 90 days post suspension may be referred to a collections agency.

Promotions, Discounts, and Bonuses: From time to time, the Company may offer promotions, discounts, or bonuses to new or existing customers. These offers are subject to availability and may change at our discretion. Current members are not automatically eligible for promotional offers made after their purchase but may access specific promotions as detailed in the offer terms. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue any promotions at any time.

Refund Policy. Due to the instant nature of digital product delivery and the irreversible access to our content, we maintain a no-refund policy for all purchases and subscriptions. This policy is in place to acknowledge the inherent value of the digital content and resources provided.

While our general policy is to not offer refunds after access has been granted, we understand that exceptional circumstances, such as a billing error or a mistake in the amount charged, can occur. In such limited circumstances, the Company reserves the right to issue refunds at our discretion.

If you believe you have been charged in error, please contact us immediately at info@gwendolynglobal.com. Provide detailed information regarding the error, including proof of the charge and your account details. We will investigate the matter and, if an error is confirmed on our part, issue an appropriate refund.

Trial Offers and Billing Authorization. When you subscribe to the Membership under a trial offer, whether free or discounted, you're getting the opportunity to experience our membership services on a trial basis. By taking advantage of a trial offer, you expressly grant the Company permission to bill the Authorized Payment Method on file for the full subscription fee once the trial period concludes, unless you take action to cancel the subscription.

The specific duration of your trial will be communicated at the time of the subscription. It's essential to note the end date of the trial period to understand when billing for the regular subscription fee will commence. If you decide that you do not wish to become a paying subscriber following the trial period, you must cancel your subscription before the trial ends. Instructions for cancellation can be found in your account settings on our website or by contacting our support team directly at info@gwendolynglobal.com.

If your subscription is not canceled before the trial period expires, the Company will automatically convert your trial subscription into a paid subscription on the day following the last day of the trial. Your Authorized Payment Method will be charged according to the subscription plan you selected at the initiation of the trial offer.

Updating Payment Information. Ensure your payment information remains up-to-date to prevent service interruptions. We may adjust your billing cycle or subscription plan to align with our current offerings for failed payments.

Term of Membership. Your subscription Membership with the Company begins upon the initial payment and is established under a recurring billing cycle (e.g., monthly, quarterly, annually). This Agreement is active and remains in effect until terminated by with Party], in accordance with the specified cancellation and termination policies in these Terms.

Cancellation of Membership. Members may cancel their membership at any time through the account management settings available within the membership platform or by following the cancellation instructions provided on the Website. Membership cancellations will take effect at the end of the current billing cycle unless otherwise specified.

Because the Membership is delivered through a third-party platform, billing, payment processing, and subscription management may be handled through that platform’s system. The Company is not responsible for billing errors, delays, or technical issues caused by third-party payment processors or platform providers.

If a Member’s payment method fails or a recurring payment cannot be processed, the membership platform may automatically suspend or terminate access to the Membership until payment is successfully completed.

The Company reserves the right to terminate or suspend membership access at its discretion if a Member violates these Terms, engages in prohibited conduct, or fails to maintain an active subscription.

No refunds will be issued for partially used billing periods unless otherwise required by law.

Termination Policies. We reserve the right to terminate your membership for reasons including, but not limited to, violation of Membership Terms and Conditions, failure to pay subscription fees, or any action detrimental to the Company or our community. Members will receive notification of such termination via email. You may decide to terminate your membership at any time for any reason following the steps outlined in our cancellation policy above.

Post-Termination Access. Upon termination or cancellation, your access to the Company's membership content, including digital products and community platforms, will be revoked. Members are encouraged to complete any video recording replays or utilize downloadable resources before the termination goes into effect, as access will not be retained post-cancellation.

Intellectual Property Ownership and License Grant.
