Prices for the Program are subject to change upon notice from us. Such notice may be provided at any time by posting the changes to the Services, or by notifying you using the contact information you have provided in connection with your Order or account.
Errors will be corrected where discovered, and we reserve the right to revoke any stated offer and to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions including after an order has been submitted and whether or not the Order has been confirmed and your credit card or other payment mechanism charged. Hirequity Academy shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, price change, suspension or discontinuance of the Program.
Hirequity Academy will provide access to the Program in a form and format that is in the sole discretion of Hirequity Academy.

You acknowledge and agree that Hirequity Academy is not responsible for how any third party credit card or other payment method processor transmits, stores, uses or shares your information.

Under certain circumstances, it is possible that third parties may be able to intrude on the server and view your information, or view such information in-transit over the Internet and/or through email or other methods. By submitting information to Hirequity Academy, you agree that you are aware of these risks. If you do not wish to submit your information electronically, do not do so; however, in such case you may not be able to make use of the full functionality of the Services.

These Terms of Use, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Hirequity Academy, superseding any other agreement between you and Hirequity Academy with respect to such subject matter. If any provisions of these Terms of Use are found to be unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed modified to the minimal extent necessary to render it enforceable and if that is not possible such provision shall be deemed severed, and the other provisions will still remain in full force and effect.
Hirequity Academy is committed to helping every sales professional reach their full potential.
