The Website is owned and operated by Create2Thrive, Inc. (“Create2Thrive”). The Website is offered subject to your acceptance without modification of all of the terms and conditions contained herein and all other operating rules, policies (including, without limitation, Create2Thrive’s Privacy Policy) and procedures that may be published from time to time on this Site by Create2Thrive (collectively, the “Agreement”).

Please read this Agreement carefully before accessing or using the Website. By accessing or using any part of the web site, you agree to become bound by the terms and conditions of this agreement. If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions of this agreement, then you may not access the Website or use any services.

    • Payment and Renewal.
                • General Terms.
                  Optional paid services such as kClub and associated offerings are available on the Website (any such services, an “Additional Offer”). By selecting an Additional Offer you agree to pay Create2Thrive the fees indicated for that service. Payments will be charged on a pre-pay basis on the day you sign up for an Additional Offer and will cover the use of that service for a time period as indicated. Additional Offer fees are not refundable.
                • Outages.
                  Create2Thrive has taken steps to ensure the website (both paid and unpaid access) is highly available.  However, from time to time it is possible to experience system outages due to maintenance or technical difficulties.  We always work hard to restore service as quickly as possible.  We do not issue refunds in these circumstances.
                • Live Sessions.
                  Create2Thrive has taken steps to ensure your access to live sessions is smooth and without incident.  However, from time to time it is possible to experience technical difficulties.  We recognize that some of our paid content consists of live presentation from guest speakers.  We recognize the value of these sessions and make every attempt to record this content so it is available for paid members who are not able (for any reason) to attend the live session.  We do not issue refunds (full or partial) if a member is unable to attend one or more live sessions.
                • In-App Purchases.
                  In-App purchases are annual auto-renewing subscriptions. Payment will be charged to your iTunes account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. Manage your subscriptions and turn off auto-renewal anytime by going to your Account Settings after purchase.
