Reliance on Information Posted

The information presented on or through the Websites is made available solely for general information purposes. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of this information. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you or any other visitor to the Websites, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

The Websites may include content provided by third parties, including materials provided by other users, bloggers, and third-party licensors, syndicators, aggregators, and/or reporting services. All statements and/or opinions expressed in these materials, and all articles and responses to questions and other content, other than the content provided by the Company, are solely the opinions and the responsibility of the person or entity providing those materials. These materials do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the Company. We are not responsible, or liable to you or any third party, for the content or accuracy of any materials provided by any third parties.

Changes to the Website

We may update the content on the Websites from time to time, but its content is not necessarily complete or up-to-date. Any of the material on the Websites may be out of date at any given time, and we are under no obligation to update such material.

‌Information About You and Your Visits to the Website

All information we collect on the Websites is subject to our Privacy Policy. By using the Websites, you consent to all actions taken by us with respect to your information in compliance with the Privacy Policy.

‌Online Purchases, Refunds, and Cancellation

All purchases through our site or other transactions for membership, the sale of goods, or services, or information formed through the Websites are final. Refunds are not automatically granted. Digital products cannot be refunded or returned. In case of lost or damaged orders, please contact us at yarn@treasuregoddess.com.

1. a) Not Intended For Children

Content and Products are intended for individuals at least 18 years of age and legally able to enter into a contract, and when you buy or use our Content, Product, or Service, you represent and warrant that you meet both requirements. We disclaim all liability for use or purchase of any Content, Products, or Services by individuals under 18 years of age. Children under 13 years of age may not use our Content or Products, and children between 13 and 18 years of age should obtain a parent’s or guardian’s permission before viewing, purchasing or using our Content, Products, or Services.

1. b) Products For Noncommercial Use by One Business Only

We love it when you share about our work, but please keep in mind that our Content, Products, and Services are protected by copyright laws and are for personal use by one individual only. You may (i) view and use our Content, (ii) email and share short snippets of our Content on your social media platforms of choice, with proper attribution, tagging our social media profile in the image and text of your post, and a link back to our site where possible, and (iii) purchase and use our Products for personal, internal noncommercial use by one business only. Selling, sharing, redistributing, licensing, or sub licensing our Content, Products, or Services to an individual, business, or third party (other than an employee, contractor, or other agent using or implementing the Products within the scope of their services for your business) is prohibited. To the extent that you purchased Products for use by your employees, contractors, or other agents (collectively, “Agents”), prior to providing them with access to the Products, you agree to take precautions consistent with the highest industry standards, including without limitation entering into written agreements binding your Agents to terms at least as protective as these Terms, to ensure they do not sell or share the Content or Products, in whole or in part, or otherwise violate these Terms. In the event you or your Agents breach these Terms, you agree to pay us $5,000 USD per instance of breach within fifteen (15) days after breach, which you agree has been incorporated into these Terms as a valid pre-estimate of damages that we will sustain, which will not be capable of precise determination. You agree this is not a penalty, but rather is the agreed-upon liquidated damages suffered as a result of your using or selling our Content, Products, or Services outside of these permitted and expressly limited usage Terms.

1. c) No Refunds; No Chargebacks

All sales are final. All Product purchases are nonrefundable, and Products are not returnable under any circumstances. However if you receive a physical product that is defective or damaged in transit, please contact us and we will make it right. Because we have a clear No Refunds policy in these Terms and you have agreed to these Terms before purchasing a Product, we will not permit any actual or threatened chargebacks from you or your credit card company. In the event that we receive a chargeback threat during or after your purchase or a chargeback is placed on your purchase, we will report your name, email, order date and amount, billing address, and a description of the incident to Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion credit bureaus, and to any other entity in our sole discretion, to ensure the incident is included in chargeback databases and delinquent account listings. That report may negatively impact your credit score, and we will require that you make a full payment of the chargeback amount plus any attorney fees or other expenses incurred in connection with the chargeback incident before we will remove you from those databases.  

1. d) Testimonials Representative of Actual Client Experiences, Not Guarantee of Your Experience

The testimonials, statements, and opinions presented in our Products were provided voluntarily by actual clients, and we did not provide free products, services, or any other benefits in exchange for those testimonials. While those testimonials are representative of actual client experiences, the exact results and experience will be unique for each individual. Therefore, we cannot and do not make any representations or guarantees about any particular results or earnings you may experience from using the Products.

1. e) General Educational Purpose Only; No Warranty; Not Professional Advice

We provide and sell the Content, Products, and Services for general informational and educational purposes only. While we use reasonable efforts to include accurate and up-to-date information in our Content, Products, and Services, we cannot make any representations or warranties as to the accuracy of information in either. We assume no liability or responsibility for any errors or representations in the Content and Products. We are not licensed financial, legal, medical, or other professionals, and no professional relationship is formed when you use the Content, Products, or Services. Nothing in the Content, Products, or Services is provided or intended as a substitute for financial, legal, medical, or other professional services or advice, and you agree we are not responsible for your reliance on any advice or opinions in the Content, Products, or Services. We strongly recommend you consult your own financial advisor, legal counsel, or other professional, as you are ultimately responsible for determining what is best for your unique situation and your business.

1. f) Results Not Guaranteed

We do not make any guarantees that you will achieve any particular result, including without limitation potential profits, losses, future income, sales, or expenses, through the use of our Content, Products, or Services, as results will be unique for each individual and business. You understand that results are based mostly on an individual’s and business’s efforts and circumstances, as well as other factors outside our control (e.g., industry standards, regulations, fluctuations in the economy), so we disclaim all liability for the failure or success of any business decisions you make that may impact your financial status or earnings.

Disclosure of Affiliate Products

Generally, we write and edit the Content, Products, or Services on our websites, and we believe in providing honest, reliable information. Occasionally, we may choose to include Content, Products, or Services created by trusted third parties with whom we have developed business relationships. Some of that trusted third-party Content, Products, and Services may involve us accepting forms of compensation (e.g., advertising, sponsorships, affiliate links, and free products). In those cases, the compensation received may influence trusted third-party or our original Content, Products, and Services on our websites, so we will identify that content as sponsored, paid, affiliate, or co-branded content. However, all opinions expressed on our websites are our own, and even when we are paid for some content or advertisements, we give our honest opinions or experiences about those products, services or topics. As with any other information provided on our websites, before you rely or act on any information provided on our websites, you should verify that information independently, which may involve reaching out to the trusted third party directly.

If the Websites contain links to other sites and resources provided by third parties, these links are provided for your convenience only. This includes links contained in advertisements, including banner advertisements and sponsored links. We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources, and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. If you decide to access any of the third-party websites linked to the Websites, you do so entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such websites.
