Privacy Policy

You may cancel your membership at any time. Your cancellation will take effect at the end of your current billing cycle. No refunds or prorated credits will be issued for partial months or unused access.

Memberships

Refund policies for live or pre-recorded programs will be clearly stated on their individual sales pages. Unless otherwise indicated:

  • No refunds will be issued once access has been granted.
  • No refunds will be issued due to a change of mind or personal circumstances.
  • If we choose to offer a refund under exceptional circumstances, it will be at our sole discretion.

Programs & Workshops

All digital products and templates (including but not limited to PDFs, Canva templates, Showit templates, or Notion workspaces) are delivered immediately upon purchase. For this reason, no refunds will be issued for digital product purchases. Please read product descriptions carefully and reach out with any questions before purchasing.


Digital Products & Templates

We value your trust and take your investment seriously. Because our offerings are digital, downloadable, or subscription-based in nature, all sales are final unless otherwise stated in writing on the product or program sales page.

Refund Policy

By purchasing from A Season of Stories, you agree not to initiate a chargeback without first contacting us to resolve the issue. If you believe you are entitled to a refund under the outlined policies above, please contact support@aseasonofstories.com and we will do our best to address your concerns.

Chargeback attempts made without contacting us first will be considered a violation of these Terms, and you will forfeit all access to any products, services, bonuses, or community spaces provided through your original purchase. We reserve the right to dispute any chargebacks and submit evidence of your agreement to these Terms, including proof of access and delivery.


Chargebacks

We offer payment plans on select products and programs to improve accessibility. By choosing a payment plan, you agree to pay the full amount outlined at checkout, in accordance with the payment schedule selected.

  • Payment plans are not a trial or pay-as-you-go option. You are committing to the full purchase.
  • You must ensure sufficient funds are available on your payment method on the due dates.
  • Failed payments will be automatically retried up to three times over a 7-day period.
  • If all retry attempts fail, your access to the product or program may be suspended until payment is resolved.
  • You will be responsible for the full remaining balance, regardless of whether you access or complete the product.

If your account becomes overdue by more than 30 days, we reserve the right to refer your account to a collections agency. In that event, you agree to cover all reasonable costs associated with collection, including legal and administrative fees.


Payment Plans

You may request cancellation of access to a subscription or membership product by emailing support@aseasonofstories.com.

However:

  • Cancelling your access does not cancel your financial obligations if you are on a payment plan. You remain responsible for the full payment.
  • No refunds or credits will be issued for unused access, partial attendance, or early cancellation.
  • Upon cancellation, your access to content will end at the conclusion of your billing cycle or immediately for non-subscription purchases.
  • Any unpaid balance at the time of cancellation becomes immediately due.

If we determine that your continued access violates our Terms of Use (e.g., reselling content, abuse of community spaces, non-payment), we reserve the right to revoke your access without a refund.


Revocation of Access & Cancellation by Customer

These Terms and Conditions and any related disputes shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of New Brunswick and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.


Governing Law

If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
