Contact: info@rule-benders.com

Binding Nature. By purchasing, accessing, or participating in any Rule Benders product, service, program, membership, tool, or experience (collectively, the "Services"), you ("Client," "Participant," or "User") agree to be legally bound by these Master Terms of Use (the "Master Terms") and any applicable Product Addendum (each, an "Addendum"). These Terms are intended to protect both you and Rule Benders.

1. General Scope & Structure

1.1 Application. These Master Terms apply to all Services unless expressly superseded by an applicable Addendum.

1.2 Addenda. Addenda (organized by product and referenced from our website or checkout) provide offer specific terms including deliverables, payment structures, refund eligibility, and access rights.

1.3 Hierarchy. Where an Addendum expressly differs from these Master Terms, the Addendum controls for that Service; otherwise, both apply together.

1.4 Consent. By proceeding with payment or accessing any content, you confirm you have read, understood, and agreed to be legally bound by the Master Terms and any relevant Addendum.

2. Definitions (Summary)

• Content means all materials provided by Rule Benders (e.g., modules, videos, audio, worksheets, templates, scripts, frameworks, community posts, and recordings).
• Lifetime access means the lifetime of a program as offered and supported by Rule Benders, not your lifetime.
• Third-Party Platforms include tools Rule Benders uses to deliver Services (e.g., WordPress, LearnWorlds, Kajabi, Zoom, Slack or Circle, ActiveCampaign, ManyChat, SamCart, Paddle, Stripe or PayPal, Google Drive, Vimeo, Meta or Instagram or Facebook, OpenAI or similar AI services).

3.3 Single-User License. Unless expressly authorized in writing: (a) Services are licensed for one individual; (b) logins may not be shared; (c) multi user or corporate licenses require a separate agreement; and (d) purchasing with the intent to resell or distribute is prohibited.

3.4 Suspension. We may suspend or terminate access without refund for violations of these Terms.

4. Intellectual Property; License; Prohibited Uses

Rule Benders retains all copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, database rights, and other IP rights in or to the Content and the Services, including all derivative works, methods, systems, and processes (e.g., proprietary prompts, frameworks, funnels, auditing methods, and SOPs). Nothing in this Agreement transfers ownership to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

4.2 License Grant. Upon purchase or authorized access, Rule Benders grants you a limited, revocable, non exclusive, non transferable license to use the Content solely for your personal or internal business use as permitted by these Terms and any Addendum.

5. Payment Terms & Chargeback Policy

5.4 No Withholding. You may not withhold or offset payments for any reason unless required by law.

5.5 Chargebacks. Before initiating a chargeback, you must email info@rule-benders.com and allow seven business days for resolution.
