Let’s do this.
Terms of Use
As used in these Terms of Use (TOU), the term "Releasees" is defined to include the following: (i) Charis Eating Disorder Cares., its subsidiaries, members, managers, directors, officers, past and present employees or contracted employees, consultants, coaches, representatives, and assigns (collectively "CEDC"); (ii) any CEDC volunteers.
The Membership Program
You will receive as part of the Membership Program:
A private message system hosted on Slack.
Three (3) weekly live group coaching sessions.
Weekday texting to coaches.
Video replays (up to 30 days, excluding meal support group).
Members
This Membership Program is intended and only suitable for individuals aged seventeen (17) and above. Some of the content in this Membership Program may not be appropriate for younger adolescents. Adolescents aged 17 must have a parent or guardian submit registration and consents. CEDC hereby disclaims all liability for use by individuals under the age of seventeen (17).
Payment
You agree to the following fees and payment schedule: Upon registering for this Membership Program, your first payment of $95 will be due before your first week of participation, followed by recurring weekly payments of USD $95. The recurring weekly payment of $95 will be charged to your card on the same calendar day each week (if, for example, you join on Monday, your card will be charged again the next Monday) until you cancel. You can cancel at any time but must allow two weeks’ notice for administration to properly cancel subscriptions prior to drafting. You give us permission to automatically charge your credit or debit card for all fees and charges due and payable to CEDC, without any additional authorization, for which you will receive an electronic receipt. You also agree that CEDC is authorized to share any payment information and instructions required to complete the payment transactions with its third-party payment service providers (e.g., credit card transaction processing, merchant settlement, and related services).
If payment is not received by the date due, you will have a four (4) day grace period to make the payment, otherwise the Membership Program will not continue, and we reserve the right to terminate your access to the Membership Program and all Content immediately and permanently. If you fail to make any payment in a timely manner or voluntarily withdraw from the Membership Program at any time or for any reason, you will remain fully responsible for any late or past due payments.
Refunds
Your satisfaction with the Membership Program is important to us. However, because of the immediate availability of quality content upon joining the Membership Program and the extensive time, effort, preparation, and care that goes into creating and providing the Membership Program we have a no refund policy. Unless otherwise provided by law, you acknowledge that we do not offer refunds for any portion of your payment for any portion of our Membership Program and no refunds will be provided to you at any time. By using and/or purchasing our Membership Program, you understand and agree that all sales are final, and no refunds will be provided. Since we have a clear and explicit refund policy in these TOU that you have agreed to prior to completing the purchase of the Membership Program, we do not tolerate or accept any type of chargeback threat or actual chargeback from your credit card company or payment processor. If a chargeback is placed on a purchase or we receive a chargeback threat during or after your purchase, we reserve the right to report the incident to all three credit reporting agencies or to any other entity for inclusion in any chargeback database or for listing as a delinquent account, which could have a negative impact on your credit report score. The information reported will include your name, email address, order date, order amount, and billing address. Chargeback abusers wishing to be removed from the database shall make the payment for the amount of the chargeback.
Termination and Cancellation
CEDC reserves the right in its sole discretion to refuse or terminate your access to the Membership Program and Content, in full or in part, at any time without notice. CEDC may terminate your participation in the Membership Program at any time, without refund, if you breach any part of these TOU. In the event of cancellation or termination, you are no longer authorized to access the part of the Membership Program or Content affected by such cancellation or termination. The restrictions imposed on you in these TOU with respect to the Membership Program and its Content will still apply now and in the future, even after termination by you or CEDC. In the event you decide to cancel, any remaining, default, or late payments will be due immediately.

You agree to keep all information you learn about other Membership Program members, their businesses (including their intellectual property), or clients (as applicable), strictly confidential except in very rare circumstances where disclosure is required by law. CEDC may record support groups and share them in the Membership Program. You agree you will not share any recorded support groups or third-party forum postings outside the private member areas of CEDC's website, or any third-party forums operated by CEDC. If CEDC discovers you have done so, this will be grounds for immediate termination of your access to the Membership Program and Content.

This release is not intended as an attempted release of claims of gross negligence or intentional acts by Releasees. In the event that the release and hold harmless provision is held unenforceable for any reason, you agree to limit any damages claimed to the total paid to CEDC for the Membership Program.
