Last Updated August 30, 2022.

Thank you for your support and interest in Sanctuary by Kristen Rice. We are so happy to have you as a part of our Sanctuary community.

Please review these Terms of Purchase very carefully. By purchasing our products and/or services, you are agreeing to these and are expressing that you have been given reasonable access to review these terms prior to your purchase. These Terms are binding as of the date you purchase or access our products and/or services.

General Purpose. These Terms are between you (“Purchaser,” “you,” “your”) and Sanctuary by Kristen Rice (“Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”) for the purpose of purchasing or otherwise obtaining digital products and/or services (our “Products”) whether through the Company’s website at sanctuarybykristenrice.com or any related domains or subdomains (the “Website”), or in person. The Company and the Purchaser will collectively be referred to as “Parties,” and each individually as a “Party.”

By clicking “Add to Cart,” “Buy Now,” or any other phrase on the purchase button, submitting a payment electronically or in-person, or otherwise subscribing through the Website, you are agreeing to adhere to and be bound by following terms and conditions, together with the Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy, all of which are hereby incorporated by reference ( the "Terms"):

Scope of Products. Our Products include but are not limited to: intuitive/psychic readings, coaching services, workshops, group programs, digital downloads, online courses, masterclasses, and retreats.

Product Delivery. When you make a purchase and submit your payment, you will be provided with the Products as detailed on the Website and/or as you selected when booking or making your selections. Please note that product delivery will differ based on when you make your purchase and if it is a service based, digital, or physical product. For products that include both a live appointment and enhancement materials, the date of delivery for all items is the date of your appointment (See below for details of regarding missed appointments and enhancement material delivery). For more information, please refer to the product descriptions or your confirmation/receipt of purchase delivered by email.

Disclaimers. It is required by law to state that psychic and intuitive readings are legally to be used for entertainment purposes only.

While you may ask questions regarding and looking into certain roadblocks that are impeding your progress toward achieving your goals, under no circumstances will we provide therapy nor give psychological, medical, financial, legal, or other advice that may require specialized training and/or licensure. Any information communicated in relation to these serious matters should be taken as entertainment and should not replace professional advice.

You understand and agree that the content included in any of the Products is merely meant to be informational in nature and does not represent any level of legal, medical, financial, or other professional industry-specific advice. As such, we will not be responsible for any damages that result from your participation in our Services or your use of our Products.

No Warranties + No Guarantees. We are providing the Products on this Website on an “As-Is” basis for individual use by you at your own risk and without any warranties, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to warranties of title; merchantability; fitness for a particular use; or any rights or licenses in these Terms. The Company makes no warranty as to the accuracy and reliability of information set forth in the Products, the Website, and Company-related documentation. You understand and agree that purchasing the Products does not guarantee specific results. The information included in the Products is provided for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Payment + Billing. By providing the Company with your preferred payment method, you represent that you: (i) are authorized to use, and (ii) authorize the Company to charge that payment method (the “Authorized Payment Method”) for any fees related to your purchase of the Products, including without limitation fees relating to any paid feature of the Website.

Return Policy.

Video and Distance (recorded) Intuitive Readings: All sessions are non-refundable after purchase. However, you can reschedule your session at any point prior to 24 hours before your scheduled session time. You have up to three reschedules before you forfeit your session. Partial refunds may be considered at the Coach’s sole discretion if requested for good cause prior to the 24 hour window, minus an administrative fee of 30 percent of the total Fees paid.

Human Design Readings: All sessions are non-refundable after purchase. However, you can reschedule your session at any point prior to 24 hours before your scheduled session time. Because custom enhancement materials are created prior to the session delivery, we cannot provide any refunds for Human Design Readings. If you miss your session without notice, we will ask by email that you confirm your identity and/or personhood before we will be able to deliver your materials to the email/inbox provided. Because of the manual labor and person-specific nature of the enhancement materials, no refunds will be granted for Human Design bookings.

Digital Products: Due to the nature of digital products being immediately accessible upon purchase, after you agree to these Terms, we do not allow for returns or refunds under any circumstances. In addition, no modifications to your purchase will be granted once your purchase is made. Thank you for understanding.

Chargebacks. By attempting a chargeback with your financial institution, you are expressly agreeing to pay the full cost of your original purchase, plus any fees or associated costs incurred by the Company. We have the right to present these Terms to your financial institution, any payment processing company and/or investigating agency concerning the attempted chargeback or financial dispute.

You are entitled to take advantage of any active Promotions when you purchase our Products. Promotions are offered manually and/or through automated campaigns at any given time and are not guaranteed to be available when you make a purchase through the Website. We reserve the right to change or alter any Promotions at any time and at our sole discretion.
