1. Scope of Application

These Terms & Conditions apply to all purchases, registrations, bookings, digital products, retreats, workshops, classes, circles, coaching programs, memberships, and other offerings provided by Sally Steele through www.sallysteele.ca and any associated booking, registration, payment, or sales platforms.

2. Eligibility

Digital products and online offerings may be purchased by individuals aged 16 years or older.

Sally Steele reserves the right to refuse participation or cancel a registration if eligibility requirements are not met.

3. Pricing & Payment

All prices are listed in Canadian Dollars (CAD).

Payment is due at the time of registration unless a payment plan is offered. Where payment plans are available, participants agree to complete all scheduled payments according to the selected plan.

Failure to complete payment may result in suspension of access to digital offerings or cancellation of participation in an event, retreat, or program.

4. Cancellation, Refund & Transfer Policy

Circles, Workshops & Events

  • Full refund for cancellations made 14 days or more before the event.

  • 50% refund for cancellations made at least 48 hours before the event, unless otherwise stated for a specific offering (such as a multi-day retreat).

  • No refunds are available for cancellations made less than 48 hours before the event.

5. Transfers

If you are unable to attend, you may transfer your registration to another person. Please notify Sally Steele of the participant's name before the event.

If there is a waitlist and your space can be filled, a refund may be offered at Sally Steele's discretion, regardless of timing.

6. Late Arrivals & No-Shows

To honour the container being created for all participants, late arrivals may not be admitted once an event has begun.

Refunds are not available for late arrivals or no-shows.

7. Weather, Emergencies & Unforeseen Circumstances

If severe weather, facilitator illness, venue issues, or other unforeseen circumstances require an event to be rescheduled, your registration will automatically transfer to the new date.

If you are unable to attend the rescheduled event, a full refund will be provided.

8. Minimum Participation Requirements

Some events require a minimum number of participants. If the minimum is not met, Sally Steele reserves the right to reschedule or cancel the event.

In this case, participants may choose either:

  • A full refund; or

  • Transfer of their registration to a future offering.

9. Digital Products

Due to the nature of digital products, downloadable resources, recordings, courses, memberships, and online content, all digital sales are final and non-refundable after 30 days, unless otherwise required by law.

If technical difficulties prevent access to purchased materials, reasonable efforts will be made to resolve the issue or provide an alternative solution.

hello@sallysteele.ca

  • A non-refundable deposit may be required to secure your place.

  • Cancellations made 60 days or more before the retreat start date will receive a refund of all amounts paid, less the non-refundable deposit.

  • Cancellations made 30–59 days before the retreat start date will receive a 50% refund of amounts paid, less the non-refundable deposit.

  • Cancellations made less than 30 days before the retreat start date are not eligible for a refund.

If your space can be filled from a waitlist, Sally Steele may, at her discretion, offer a partial or full refund.
