We reserve all rights that we do not expressly grant in these Terms. We may change, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Services at any time, including the availability of any feature or content. Without limitation of any of our other rights or remedies at law, in equity or under these Terms, we may terminate your license to use the Services, in whole or in part, including your right to use any Products, without providing any refund or cancelling your obligation to make installment payments where applicable, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have breached or violated any of the provisions of these Terms.

BALANCE BY NATURE grants you (as a student) a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and view the courses and associated content for which you have paid all required fees, solely for your personal, non- commercial, educational purposes through the Services, in accordance with these Terms and any conditions or restrictions associated with a particular courses or feature of our Services. All other uses are expressly prohibited. You may not reproduce, redistribute, transmit, assign, sell, broadcast, rent, share, lend, modify, adapt, edit, create derivative works of, sublicense, or otherwise transfer or use any course unless we give you explicit permission to do so in a written agreement signed by a BALANCE BY NATURE authorized representative. This also applies to content you can access via any of our social channels controlled by us.

We generally give a Lifetime Access license to our students when they enroll in a course. However, we reserve the right to revoke any license to access and use courses at any point in time in the event where we decide or are obligated to disable access to a course due to legal or policy reasons, for example, if the course you enrolled in is the object of a copyright complaint, or if we determine its content violates our Terms.

Lifetime Access is for the lifetime of the Service. If for any reason, we should dissolve of the Service or cease to exist, then your access to the Service terminates.

  1. PAYMENT

You may purchase licenses to certain Products through a one-time payment or in monthly installments, as specified on the Sites.
