Updated September 30, 2026
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY BEFORE CREATING AN ACCOUNT OR MAKING ANY PURCHASE ON THIS PLATFORM. BY USING THIS PLATFORM, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS PLATFORM OR PURCHASE ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES.
1. About This Agreement
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Brainy Girl Thinkific Platform (the "Platform"), including cohort programs, digital products, community spaces, and all other content and services made available through the Platform (collectively, "Products and Services").
The Platform is operated by Brainy Girl, owned and operated by Kim Garnett in British Columbia, Canada ("Brainy Girl", "we", "us", or "our"). The Platform is hosted by Thinkific Labs Inc., a third-party platform provider.
We may update these Terms at any time. Updated Terms will be posted on the Platform with the effective date noted at the top of this document. Continued use of the Platform after any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you must stop using the Platform.
2. Eligibility
To use this Platform, you must:
- Be at least 13 years of age;
- Be capable of forming a binding contract in your jurisdiction;
- Provide accurate and complete registration information;
- Agree to and comply with these Terms.
If you are using the Platform on behalf of a business or organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.
3. Account Registration
You are required to create an account to access most features of the Platform. When registering, you agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information;
- Maintain and promptly update your account information;
- Keep your password confidential;
- Take responsibility for all activities that occur under your account.
You may not share your account credentials or allow any other person to access the Platform using your login. Account sharing is a violation of these Terms and may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account without refund.
Brainy Girl reserves the right to refuse registration, cancel accounts, or remove content at our sole discretion.
4. Payments, Taxes and Merchant of Record
4.1 Who Takes Your Payment
Purchases on this Platform are processed by Thinkific Payments, also called TCommerce. For those purchases Thinkific Labs Inc. acts as the merchant of record. This means Thinkific, not Brainy Girl, collects your payment, and Thinkific uses Stripe as its underlying payment processor.
Brainy Girl does not see or store your full payment card number at any point.
4.2 Sales Tax
As merchant of record, Thinkific calculates and charges any sales tax applicable to your purchase based on your location, and remits that tax to the relevant authority on our behalf. Any tax charged will be shown at checkout and included in your order total.
4.3 Currency and Pricing
Prices are displayed on the Platform at the time of purchase, in the currency shown at checkout. Brainy Girl reserves the right to change pricing for its Products and Services at any time. A price change will not affect a purchase you have already completed.
4.4 Payment Problems
If a payment fails or is reversed, your access to the affected Product or Service may be suspended until the outstanding balance is resolved. Chargebacks and payment disputes for purchases made on this Platform are handled by Thinkific under its own policies, in accordance with the rules of the relevant card network.
4.5 Receipts
Thinkific issues your receipt for any purchase made on this Platform. If you need a copy of a receipt, contact [email protected] and we will arrange it.
5. Cohort Programs
5.1 Cohort Enrollment
Brainy Girl offers cohort programs with fixed start dates and defined program periods. Enrollment in a cohort grants you access to the program content, live sessions, and community support for the duration of the cohort as described at the time of enrollment.
5.2 Cohort Access
Access to cohort content and live sessions is provided for the duration of the cohort program. Recordings and materials may be made available for a limited time following the live sessions, as specified in the cohort description. Cohort access is non-transferable.
5.3 Cohort Refund Policy
Refund requests for cohort programs will not be granted if you have: (1) accessed or viewed more than 10% of the cohort materials, attended a live session, or accessed the cohort community; or (2) requested a refund more than 7 days after the program purchase date. Refund requests must be submitted to [email protected].
6. Digital Products
6.1 Product Access
Digital products sold on the Platform, including but not limited to templates, toolkits, frameworks, downloadable resources, and skill libraries, are provided on a limited-time access basis as specified at the time of purchase. Access duration varies by product and will be clearly communicated at the point of sale. Brainy Girl may in the future offer one-time purchase products with lifetime access; the specific terms of each product will govern.
6.2 License
Upon purchase of a digital product, Brainy Girl grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the product for your own personal and business purposes as specified in the product description. You may not:
- Resell, redistribute, sublicense, or share digital products with others;
- Use digital products to create competing products or services;
- Remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or proprietary notices;
- Reverse-engineer, copy, or reproduce any proprietary prompts, frameworks, or system architecture.
6.3 Digital Product Refund Policy
Due to the digital nature of our products, all digital product sales are final once access has been granted. Refunds will not be issued except where a product is materially defective. If you believe a product is defective, please contact [email protected] within 7 days of purchase.
