Payment is due in full at the time of purchase. The purchase price, any applicable taxes or other charges, and the total amount payable will be shown before you complete payment.

This is a one-time purchase and does not automatically renew.

If an introductory or promotional offer applies, the applicable price, eligibility requirements, duration and other conditions will be stated on the sales page or at checkout before purchase.

5. Refunds, cancellations and exchanges

Because The Confident Explorer Method™ is a digital product that is delivered electronically and can be accessed immediately, The Confident Explorer does not offer change-of-mind refunds, returns or exchanges after access to the product has been provided.

Nothing in these Purchase Terms limits any cancellation, refund or other rights you may have under applicable consumer protection law.

Your purchase gives you a licence to use The Confident Explorer Method™ for your own personal, non-commercial travel planning.

You may save the PDF materials to your own devices, print them for your own use, and reuse the worksheets or tools when planning your own trips, including trips you are taking with other people.

You may not reproduce or distribute the product for others, share or forward the digital files, upload them to a shared or public location, resell them, publish them, or use them as part of a commercial service, course, workshop, coaching program or other product without written permission from The Confident Explorer.

Travel requirements, schedules, prices, policies, accessibility information, entry requirements and other circumstances can change. Travellers should verify information that is important to their trip with current official sources and the relevant travel providers before relying on it.

The choices and arrangements made for a particular trip remain the responsibility of the traveller. Use of the Method does not guarantee a particular travel experience or outcome.
