1. DEFINITION OF COACHING

“Professional Coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that helps people produce extraordinary results in their lives, careers, businesses or organizations. Through the process of coaching, clients deepen their learning, improve their performance, and enhance their quality of life. In each meeting, the client chooses the focus of conversation, while the coach listens and contributes observations and questions. This interaction creates clarity and moves the client into action. Coaching accelerates the client's progress by providing greater focus and awareness of choice. Coaching concentrates on where clients are now and what they are willing to do to get where they want to be in the future. ICF member coaches recognize that results are a matter of the client's intentions, choices, and actions, supported by the coach's efforts and application of the coaching process.”

5. BILLING

5.1. Billing Cycle

The membership fee for any Career Center for Designers service and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of our services, such as taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged based on the cadence of your subscription type to your Payment Method on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of the paying portion of your membership. 

Membership fees and benefits are fully earned upon payment. In some cases, your payment date may change, for example, if your Payment Method has not been successfully settled or if your membership began on a day not contained in a given month. Visit the Billing portal to see your next payment date.

5.2. Payment Methods

To use the services offered by Career Coach for Designers, you must provide one or more Payment Methods. You can update your Payment Methods by going to the Billing portal - careercoachfordesigners.com/billing. We may also update your Payment Methods using the information provided by the payment service providers, such as, but not limited to, Stripe.

You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. If payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not cancel your account, we may suspend your access to the service until we have successfully charged a valid Payment Method. 

For some Payment Methods, the issuer may charge you certain fees, such as foreign transaction fees or other fees relating to the processing of your Payment Method. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details. Upon signing these Terms, you agree to pay in full, as you will receive the login for all of the proprietary tools. We reserve the right to suspend the coaching services, terminate the contract between us, or have a collection agency involved if our charges are overdue for payment by you.

5.3. Termination

5.3.1 Termination by Client: 

Once you have enrolled in any of our programs or services, you are responsible for the full Program Fee for the full duration you’re enrolled. Requests for cancellation or withdrawal from the program will not release you from your obligation to pay any outstanding balance.

To avoid the next billing cycle, notice must be provided via the member portal or in writing at least fourteen (14) days before the renewal date. Access continues until the end of the current paid period.

Failure to participate or complete the program does not excuse the obligation to pay the agreed-upon fee in full.

If you violate the terms of this Agreement and are removed from the program as a result, you will still be responsible for the full program cost, with no refund.

5.3.2 Termination by Career Coach for Designers: 

We reserve the right to terminate your access immediately for breaches of confidentiality, unprofessional conduct, or failure to pay fees. Upon termination, you will no longer have access to the part of the Site or program affected by such cancellation or termination.

5.4. Fees and Financial Protections

Due to the immediate, irrevocable access granted to proprietary intellectual property, tools, and career strategies, all sales are final. No refunds, partial or full, will be issued under any circumstances.

5.4.2. Chargeback Waiver:

Client agrees that they will not, under any circumstances, initiate a chargeback or payment dispute with their credit card issuer or bank. Client acknowledges that initiating a chargeback is a material breach of this Agreement and may result in legal action to recover the funds and associated administrative fees.

5.4.3. Transaction Fee Recovery:

In the highly exceptional event that a discretionary refund is granted by CC4D (though not required by this Agreement), such refund will be subject to a 5% transaction and administrative fee to cover non-refundable processing costs.

6. DISCLAIMERS

The satisfaction of our clients is Career Coach for Designers’ highest priority, and we are committed to providing the best tools, coaching skills, and methods. 

The Services are provided with reasonable skill and care by coaches who are professional and experienced.

6.1. Performance and Support Guarantee

Career Coach for Designers is fully committed to helping you achieve your personal and professional goals. 

We make no guarantees or representations regarding your future success, including income, career opportunities, or business outcomes. 

The materials, strategies, and tools we provide are designed to guide you, but results will vary based on individual effort and circumstances.

To support your success, we may offer additional support if all membership guidelines are followed when results are not achieved within the agreed-upon time. 

Any commitment offered (e.g., the "until you get a job”) is strictly contingent upon the Client maintaining "Active Member" status throughout the entire duration of the program. 

If a Client falls out of "Active Member" status as defined in Section 3, any such guarantees are rendered null and void.

6.2. Disclaimer of Liability

Career Coach for Designers provides educational resources and coaching for personal and professional development, including goal structuring and achievement.

We are not employment agents, business managers, financial analysts, or therapists, and we do not:

  • Procure employment, business, or sales opportunities

  • Provide accounting, tax, or investment advice

  • Act as a therapist or provide any form of psychological treatment

Coaching is not a substitute for licensed therapy. You are fully responsible for your own decisions and actions, and you may reject any advice at any time. Career Coach for Designers and its employees are released from liability for outcomes resulting from your use of our Services.

If you are currently under the care of a physician, therapist, or psychiatrist, or taking any prescription medication, please inform your coach.

6.3. Disclaimer of Results

Statements and depictions are the opinions, findings, or experiences of individuals who have generally purchased education and training. Results vary, are not typical, and rely on individual effort, time, and skill, as well as unknown conditions and other factors. 

We do not measure earnings or financial performance. Instead, we track completed transactions and satisfaction with services through voluntary surveys. 

Results show that most clients who actively participate with Career Coach for Designers have a greater chance of success than those who are not cooperative and involved. You should not, however, equate completed sales closing transactions with financially successful transactions.

Further, some customers do not continue with our services, do not apply the strategies taught or what they learn, or do attempt to apply what they learn but nonetheless have difficulty in making their careers successful for them.

6.4. Disclaimer of Third Parties

Career Coach for Designers may link to content or refer to content and/or services created by or provided by third parties.

In order for us to keep the Services safe and available for everyone to use, we all have to follow the same rules of the road. 

7.3.1. Client Conduct and Program Access

As a client, you are expected to conduct yourself professionally and respectfully. Any behavior detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of others will result in immediate removal from the program without reimbursement.
