Our Provision of the Services
We reserve the rights to monitor your use of the Services to determine compliance with these Terms. We reserve the right to deny the use of the Services to any person who we believe in our sole discretion to be in violation of these Terms, and this includes the right to ask people to leave Events or Sessions or exclude people from Social Media.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate the Services to any person for any lawful reason at any time.
We neither endorse nor assume liability for Members’ conduct. We generally do not pre-screen, monitor, or edit Member Submissions. We do, however, reserve the right in our sole discretion to remove any Member Submission or other content that, in our sole judgment, does not comply with these Terms or which we otherwise find objectionable. You consent to such removal and waive any claim against us arising out of such removal of any Member Submission.
Events and Sessions
You may register for Events and Sessions through our website. Unless a particular Event or Session page or advertisement says otherwise, your registration for an Event or Session is non-transferable.
Subscription Services
We charge you a recurring monthly fee (“Monthly Fee”) for participation in our Subscription Services. We will charge that fee on or about the day you sign up for our Subscription Services and then again or about the first day of each month. We reserve the right to change the timing of our billing. The Monthly Fee will be billed on the beginning of the paying portion of your membership and each month or year thereafter unless and until you cancel your membership. If your paying membership began on a day not contained in a given month, we may bill you on a day in the applicable month or another day that we deem appropriate.
We may adjust pricing for Subscription Services, or any of its components, in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms, any price changes to your Subscription Service membership will take effect following email notice to you. You consent to our charging you adjusted prices after providing you with email notice of our intent to adjust them.
You may cancel your membership to our Subscription Services at any time for any reason or for no reason. To do so, please contact us directly – click here –and request cancellation.

For non-subscription based Services, such as the Lotus Membership or your purchase of Goods we sell, we will charge a one-time fee, which will be due prior to us providing those one-time Services to you.
Refunds for Events
Unless otherwise noted in connection with a particular Event, we offer refunds of Event fees if (a) you cancel your booking of an Event at least 48 hours before it begins or (b) we cancel an Event for which you have already registered and made payment. Otherwise, we cannot offer refunds of fees that you may pay for any of our Services.
Refunds for Sessions
Any Sessions you purchase from us (or receive via a gift card, as a gift, or otherwise) are non-refundable unless we are unable to provide our Services, either in person or remotely, during your scheduled Session time. For purposes of clarity, Sessions may be provided by us either in-person or remotely (via phone or teleconferencing software) and refunds will not be issued in the event a scheduled in-person Session is instead provided remotely, or vice-a-versa. If you can no longer attend a scheduled Session, you can reschedule with us for a future date and any payments you have made will be applied to that future Session so long as it occurs within one-year of your originally scheduled Session. Sessions needing to be rescheduled more than one-year from the originally schedule Session will incur additional fees.

These Terms inure to the benefit of the parties’ successors and assigns. You may not assign or delegate any rights or duties that these Terms impose on you.
