Terms of Service

Captive Coaching & Empowerment LLC · Effective date: 9/1/2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of captivecoachingandempowerment.com and our services, including coaching, courses, workshops, the membership, and the client portal (the "Services"), offered by Captive Coaching & Empowerment LLC ("Captive Coaching," "we," "us," or "our"). By using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

Who can use the Services

You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding agreement to use the Services.

Coaching is not therapy or medical care

Captive Coaching provides personal-development and performance coaching. Our Services, including the APACHE Framework™, are not therapy, counseling, medical or mental-health treatment, diagnosis, or crisis support, and are not a substitute for care from a licensed professional. Coaching does not create a doctor-patient, therapist-client, or similar relationship. You are responsible for your own decisions and actions. If you are experiencing a medical or mental-health emergency, contact a licensed professional or emergency services immediately.

Accounts

Some Services require an account. You are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for activity under your account. Please give us accurate information and keep it up to date.

Membership, billing and free trial

  • The CAPTIVE Membership is a paid subscription billed on a recurring basis (currently $12.99 per month) after any free-trial period.
  • Payments are processed by Stripe. By starting a membership you authorize us, through Stripe, to charge your payment method on each renewal until you cancel.
  • If a free trial is offered, you will not be charged until the trial ends. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your paid membership begins automatically.
  • You can cancel at any time. Cancellation stops future charges; it does not retroactively refund a period already billed unless required by law.
  • Prices and features may change. We will give notice of any price change before it takes effect.

Purchases and refunds

Fees for courses, workshops and other purchases are described at checkout. Individual coaching, digital data and workshops are non-refundable once access has been granted or digital material has been provided. Online course costs are refundable based on the refund policy for the individual course, provided at the time of purchase of access.

Your content

You keep ownership of the information and responses you submit, such as workbook entries and messages. You grant us permission to store and use that content only as needed to provide the Services to you.

Our content

All materials we provide, including course content, workbooks, videos, frameworks, text, and designs, are owned by Captive Coaching or our licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. You may use them for your own personal, non-commercial use as part of the Services. You may not copy, share, resell, or redistribute them without our written permission.

Acceptable use

  • Do not misuse the Services or interfere with their normal operation.
  • Do not use the Services for anything unlawful, harmful, or infringing.
  • In community spaces, treat other members with respect. We may remove content or accounts that violate these Terms.

Third-party services

The Services rely on and link to third parties such as Stripe, Mailchimp, Supabase, Vimeo, and Embody Her. Your use of those services is subject to their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services.

Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available." We do not guarantee any specific result or outcome from coaching, courses, workshops or the membership. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Captive Coaching and its owners will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Services. Our total liability for any claim will not exceed the amount you paid us for the Services in the twelve months before the claim.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the effective date above and post the updated version on this page. Continuing to use the Services means you accept the updated Terms.
