FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS

FEES CHARGED
The fees charged for Our Offerings, Courses, and Products (physical, virtual, and digital) vary.

COURSE(S) TERMS
For Our Courses that do not have structured start/end dates, You may begin them at any time. You will be granted unlimited access to Your Purchased/Registered Course(s) for the lifetime of Your Purchased/Registered Course(s). "Lifetime of Our Course(s)" is defined as however long Our Course(s) are available on the internet. If We ever decide to remove Our Course(s) from the internet, You will be given 60 days to download Your Purchased/Registered Course(s), so You can continue to refer to the information. We will email You, using Your Purchased/Registered Course(s) registered email address(es), to let You know when the 60 days start and when they expire.

As a participant in Your Purchased/Registered Course(s), You will be asked to register with Us. When You do so, You will choose a user identifier, which may be Your email address or another term, as well as a password. You may also provide personal information, including, but not limited to, Your name. You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of this information. This identifying information will enable You to participate in Our Course(s). You must not share such identifying information with any third party, and if You discover that Your identifying information has been compromised, You agree to notify Us immediately in writing.

The billing information You provide Us, including Your credit card, Your billing address, and Your other payment information, is subject to the same confidentiality and accuracy requirements as the rest of Your identifying information. Providing false or inaccurate information or using Our Course(s) or Our Website to further fraud or unlawful activity is grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement.

REFUNDS
We take Your investment seriously, and We want You to be 100% satisfied with all of Your purchase(s).

We offer a 30-day Money-Back Guarantee for purchases of particular courses from Our Offerings. That Money-Back Guarantee is governed by the following terms, except to the extent that the terms of a specific product or service provide otherwise.

If You decide Your purchase was not the right decision for You or Your business, within 30 days of enrollment, contact our support team at [email protected] and let Us know You’d like a refund. Your email must please contain information about the product You purchased, the date of the purchase, the email address and exact name associated with any such purchase, and the reason You feel as if the purchase didn’t live up to Your expectations. We are always trying to improve Our Offerings and provide as much value as possible. Your feedback will be very important to Us and deeply appreciated.

Upon determining that You are entitled to a refund pursuant to this policy, Our Company will promptly issue an instruction to its payment processor to issue the refund. Our Company does not control its payment processor and will not be able to expedite any refunds.

If You receive a refund of any purchase through this Money-Back Guarantee, that shall immediately terminate any and all licenses granted You to use the material provided to You under these Terms of Use or any other agreement. You shall immediately cease using the material and shall destroy all copies of the information provided to You, including without limitation: video recordings, audio recordings, forms, template documents, slide shows, membership areas, social media groups limited to paying members, and other resources.

You may redeem a Money-Back Guarantee from Our Company only once for a specific product. In other words, after You have received a refund for a specific product, if You purchase the same product again, You shall not be entitled to any other refunds from Our Company pertaining to that specific product.

All refunds are discretionary as determined by The Homeschool Express.

We will NOT provide refunds more than 30 days following the date of purchase. After day 30, all payments are non-refundable and You are responsible for full payment of the fees for the program regardless of if You complete the program.

Please note: If You opted for a payment plan and You do not request a refund within 30 days, You are required by law to complete the remaining payments of Your payment plan.

RECURRING PAYMENTS
If You have signed up for a payment plan, You hereby authorize Our continued access to Your financial information stored by Our third-party financial processing Company referenced in this Agreement until Your payment plan is complete, as set forth in Your acceptance of the purchase terms upon checkout.

CHARGEBACKS
You agree to make every attempt to file for a refund prior to attempting a chargeback with Your financial institution. In the event of a chargeback attempt, You expressly agree to forfeit any and all of Our bonuses, affiliate bonuses, or other materials afforded to You in exchange for Your original purchase of Our Offering. We reserve the right to present proof of Your access and these Terms and Conditions of Use to the financial institution investigating the dispute.

Any existing balance that remains after 14 days from the date of termination will be sent to a collections agency, and You agree to be responsible for any additional charges, fees, or costs associated with such a collection effort, including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs.

NON-DISPARAGEMENT

COURSE(S) TERMS
For Our Courses that do not have structured start/end dates, You may begin them at any time. You will be granted unlimited access to Your Purchased/Registered Course(s) for the lifetime of Your Purchased/Registered Course(s). "Lifetime of Our Course(s)" is defined as however long Our Course(s) are available on the internet. If We ever decide to remove Our Course(s) from the internet, You will be given 60 days to download Your Purchased/Registered Course(s), so You can continue to refer to the information. We will email You, using Your Purchased/Registered Course(s) registered email address(es), to let You know when the 60 days start and when they expire.

As a participant in Your Purchased/Registered Course(s), You will be asked to register with Us. When You do so, You will choose a user identifier, which may be Your email address or another term, as well as a password. You may also provide personal information, including, but not limited to, Your name. You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of this information. This identifying information will enable You to participate in Our Course(s). You must not share such identifying information with any third party, and if You discover that Your identifying information has been compromised, You agree to notify Us immediately in writing.

The billing information You provide Us, including Your credit card, Your billing address, and Your other payment information, is subject to the same confidentiality and accuracy requirements as the rest of Your identifying information. Providing false or inaccurate information or using Our Course(s) or Our Website to further fraud or unlawful activity is grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement.

REFUNDS
We take Your investment seriously, and We want You to be 100% satisfied with all of Your purchase(s).

We offer a 30-day Money-Back Guarantee for purchases of particular courses from Our Offerings. That Money-Back Guarantee is governed by the following terms, except to the extent that the terms of a specific product or service provide otherwise.

If You decide Your purchase was not the right decision for You or Your business, within 30 days of enrollment, contact our support team at [email protected] and let Us know You’d like a refund. Your email must please contain information about the product You purchased, the date of the purchase, the email address and exact name associated with any such purchase, and the reason You feel as if the purchase didn’t live up to Your expectations. We are always trying to improve Our Offerings and provide as much value as possible. Your feedback will be very important to Us and deeply appreciated.

Upon determining that You are entitled to a refund pursuant to this policy, Our Company will promptly issue an instruction to its payment processor to issue the refund. Our Company does not control its payment processor and will not be able to expedite any refunds.

If You receive a refund of any purchase through this Money-Back Guarantee, that shall immediately terminate any and all licenses granted You to use the material provided to You under these Terms of Use or any other agreement. You shall immediately cease using the material and shall destroy all copies of the information provided to You, including without limitation: video recordings, audio recordings, forms, template documents, slide shows, membership areas, social media groups limited to paying members, and other resources.

You may redeem a Money-Back Guarantee from Our Company only once for a specific product. In other words, after You have received a refund for a specific product, if You purchase the same product again, You shall not be entitled to any other refunds from Our Company pertaining to that specific product.

All refunds are discretionary as determined by The Homeschool Express.

We will NOT provide refunds more than 30 days following the date of purchase. After day 30, all payments are non-refundable and You are responsible for full payment of the fees for the program regardless of if You complete the program.

Please note: If You opted for a payment plan and You do not request a refund within 30 days, You are required by law to complete the remaining payments of Your payment plan.

CHARGEBACKS
You agree to make every attempt to file for a refund prior to attempting a chargeback with Your financial institution. In the event of a chargeback attempt, You expressly agree to forfeit any and all of Our bonuses, affiliate bonuses, or other materials afforded to You in exchange for Your original purchase of Our Offering. We reserve the right to present proof of Your access and these Terms and Conditions of Use to the financial institution investigating the dispute.
