Posted prices include applicable taxes and charges for shipping and handling of any equipment or materials included in the particular program. We strive to display accurate price information, however we may, on occasion, make inadvertent typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions related to pricing and availability. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions at any time and to cancel any orders arising from such occurrences.

2. Refund Policies.
- Assessments: The purchase price for assessments is non-refundable.
- One-Time Program Purchases: One-time program purchases are non-cancelable and non-refundable. If the Company chooses to allow payment for a one-time program over time in monthly installments, you are responsible for paying the purchase price in full, whether or not you or your minor child choses to discontinue your use of the particular program before completion of the program.
- Training Programs: The enrollment fee (“Training Enrollment Fee”) for training programs is non-refundable.
- Month-to-Month Training Fee: The Company does not offer refunds of payments made for month-to-month trainings. For those parents and legal guardians who elect to enroll in month-to-month trainings, such trainings begin one month after payment of the Training Enrollment Fee, and will automatically renew for additional months until you cancel or the monthly trainings are suspended or discontinued by the Company. We bill for monthly trainings at the beginning of each monthly renewal term. If you wish to cancel month-to-month trainings, you must provide us notice of cancellation by email to info@hardybraintraining.com (please write “TERMINATION OF MONTHLY TRAININGS” in the subject line) at least 14 days before your monthly renewal date to avoid being billed for the subsequent month. You will have continued access to monthly trainings until the end of the month in which you cancel. The Company does not provide pro-rata refunds for unused days in the month of termination.

When a user purchases a program that includes services provided by Interactive Metronome, Interactive Metronome will ship the Interactive Metronome Equipment directly to the Company so that the Company can program the main station depending on the needs of the particular child.
