1. DEFINITIONS
The following terms have the meanings set out below wherever they appear in these Terms:
"Agreement" means these Terms of Service together with any Order, addendum, or policy incorporated by reference.
"Client" means the individual, company, or institution that purchases or registers for Services.
"Content" means all training materials, frameworks, playbooks, slide decks, digital resources, assessments, and other materials provided by Northmark as part of the Services.
"Northmark", "we", "us", or "our" means Northmark Partners LLC, a limited liability company registered in the State of New York.
"Order" means a written engagement letter, statement of work, proposal, or checkout confirmation specifying the Services, fees, and other applicable terms.
"Participant" means any individual who accesses or attends the Services under Client's account or Order.
"Services" means the professional development, consulting, training, coaching, and advisory services provided by Northmark as described in Section 4.
"Subcontractor" means any third party engaged by Northmark to assist in delivering the Services.
2. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Subject to Section 15 (Dispute Resolution), the parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in New York County, New York for the resolution of any disputes not subject to arbitration.
Nothing in these Terms limits any statutory rights a Client or Participant may have under the mandatory consumer protection laws of their jurisdiction of residence that cannot be waived by contract, including (without limitation) New York General Business Law § 349 (deceptive practices), California Consumer Legal Remedies Act, or equivalent state statutes. Where such mandatory rights conflict with these Terms, the mandatory rights prevail to the extent of the conflict.
3. ELIGIBILITY AND AUTHORITY
By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:
You are at least 18 years of age (or the applicable age of majority in your jurisdiction), and have full legal capacity to enter into this Agreement;
If purchasing or registering on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you have full authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and the entity accepts these Terms;
All registration and billing information you provide is accurate, current, and complete; and
Your use of the Services will comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
4. SCOPE OF SERVICES
4.1 Services Offered
Northmark provides professional development services including, as applicable: sales consulting, training delivery, coaching (individual and group), workshops, enablement programs, curriculum design, leadership and manager coaching, program reinforcement, and related professional services (collectively, the "Services").
4.2 Engagement Types
Northmark serves three categories of Client, each subject to the same base Terms unless a section expressly differentiates:
Business-to-Business (B2B): Corporate and organisational clients purchasing Services for their teams or workforce.
Business-to-Consumer / Business-to-Individual (B2C/B2I): Individual consumers purchasing coaching, training, or digital products for personal professional development.
Business-to-Institutional (B2I — Institutional): Government entities, universities, non-profit organisations, and similar institutions. Institutional clients may require additional terms by Order or addendum.
4.3 Order Controls
Your Order may specify scope, deliverables, timing, fees, personnel, and special terms. If an Order expressly conflicts with these Terms, the Order controls solely for that conflict unless the Order states otherwise. No oral representations by Northmark personnel, marketing materials, or proposals outside a signed Order form part of this Agreement.
4.4 Subcontractors
Northmark may engage Subcontractors to deliver or assist in delivering the Services. Northmark remains fully responsible for the performance of Subcontractors and their compliance with these Terms, including confidentiality and IP obligations. Northmark will not disclose Client Confidential Information to Subcontractors beyond what is necessary to perform the Services.
4.5 No Outcome Guarantees
Northmark provides professional development services. We do not guarantee specific commercial outcomes — including revenue growth, quota attainment, hiring, promotion, investment returns, or employment placement — unless expressly warranted in a signed Order. Testimonials and case studies on Northmark's website reflect individual results and are not representative of typical outcomes.
5. CLIENT AND PARTICIPANT RESPONSIBILITIES
Client agrees to:
Provide accurate information including registration details, billing details, and Participant lists;
Ensure Participants behave professionally and comply with these Terms and Northmark's programme conduct standards (Section 12);
Provide timely access to relevant systems, data, stakeholders, and scheduling availability where required for delivery;
Maintain appropriate internal policies and compliance obligations for its team, including HR, legal, regulatory, and industry-specific rules;
Ensure Participants complete any prerequisite materials or pre-work specified in the Order; and
Promptly notify Northmark of any changes to authorised Participant lists.
Northmark may suspend or limit access if reasonably necessary to prevent misuse, protect Confidential Information, or maintain a safe learning environment.
6. SCHEDULING, DELIVERY, AND PROGRAMME LOGISTICS
6.1 Scheduling Confirmation
Dates are reserved when Northmark confirms in writing. Unless the Order states otherwise, training and coaching may be delivered remotely or on-site as agreed. For on-site delivery, Client is responsible for a suitable venue including AV/internet access, seating, and reasonable facilities.
6.2 Rescheduling by Client
Because Northmark allocates facilitator and coaching capacity in advance, the following rescheduling policy applies unless the Order states otherwise:
14 or more days' notice: Rescheduling permitted without fee, subject to availability.
7–13 days' notice: Rescheduling fee of 25% of the affected session fee applies.
Fewer than 7 days' notice or no-show: The session is treated as delivered and is forfeited with no credit or refund.
Northmark may, in its reasonable discretion, waive rescheduling fees in documented emergency circumstances.
6.3 Rescheduling by Northmark
If Northmark must reschedule a session (due to facilitator illness, travel disruption, force majeure, or other cause), Northmark will provide prompt written notice and offer alternative dates with commercially reasonable continuity of delivery. Remote delivery may be substituted for on-site delivery where feasible.
6.4 Session Recordings
If any session is to be recorded, Northmark will provide written or verbal notice at the start of the session. In states requiring all-party consent for recording (including California, Illinois, Washington, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Oregon, and Pennsylvania), Northmark will obtain express consent from Participants before recording commences. Recordings are subject to Northmark's Privacy Policy.
7. FEES, PAYMENT, TAXES, AND COLLECTION
7.1 Fees
Fees are as stated in the Order. Unless otherwise stated, fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, duties, and third-party costs (such as travel and venue expenses). All fees are denominated in United States Dollars (USD).
7.2 Payment Terms
Unless otherwise stated in the Order: invoices are due within 14 days of the invoice date. Late payments accrue interest at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. Client is responsible for reasonable costs of collection, including attorneys' fees, to the extent permitted by law.
7.3 Payment Methods
Northmark accepts payment via card-not-present invoice links, ACH bank transfer, and wire transfer. Card payments are processed through Northmark's authorised payment processor. Clients enrolling via payment link will receive a secure invoice by email. Services commence within 2 business days of payment confirmation, as confirmed in writing by Northmark.
7.4 Taxes
Client is responsible for all applicable sales tax, use tax, value-added tax (VAT), goods and services tax (GST), or similar taxes arising from the purchase of Services, except for taxes based on Northmark's net income.
7.5 On-Site and Travel Expenses
Where on-site delivery is included in the Order, Client will reimburse Northmark for pre-approved travel expenses (airfare, lodging, ground transport, and per diem) per the Order or Northmark's standard travel policy, provided such expenses are reasonable and documented.
7.6 Payment Disputes and Chargebacks
Before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute with a financial institution, Client agrees to notify Northmark in writing at support@northmark.net and allow 10 business days to attempt resolution. Chargebacks that are not supported by good faith dispute will be treated as non-payment and may result in immediate suspension of Services. Nothing in this section limits any statutory chargeback rights of individual consumers.
8. REFUND POLICY AND SERVICE GUARANTEE
8.1 General Policy — All Sales Final
All purchases are final. Northmark does not offer refunds for Services — including coaching, training, workshops, digital products, downloads, or subscriptions — except (a) where expressly required by applicable law, (b) as provided in the Service Guarantee below, or (c) where Northmark terminates the engagement without cause prior to delivery.
8.2 Northmark Service Guarantee (Make-Good Remedy)
Northmark guarantees: (a) delivery of Services materially as described in the Order; (b) professional facilitation and coaching standards; and (c) Content quality consistent with Northmark's published methodology. If you reasonably believe Northmark has not met the above standard, you must notify Northmark in writing within 14 days of the relevant session or deliverable. Northmark will review the claim in good faith and, if validated, will provide one of the following remedies at Northmark's election: re-performance, replacement of equivalent session, or service credit up to fees paid for the deficient portion.
8.3 Northmark-Initiated Cancellation
If Northmark cancels a confirmed session or engagement without cause and cannot reschedule within 30 days, Client is entitled to a pro-rata refund of fees paid for the undelivered portion.
8.4 Client Termination for Convenience
A Client may terminate an ongoing engagement for convenience with 30 days' written notice. Upon such termination: (a) Client owes fees for all Services delivered and for any non-cancellable costs Northmark has incurred; (b) pre-paid fees for undelivered Services will be credited as a service credit toward future Services, or refunded at Northmark's discretion for B2C/B2I Clients with demonstrated financial hardship.
8.5 Subscription and Auto-Renewal Disclosures
If your Order includes a subscription or automatically renewing programme, the following disclosures apply:
The subscription period, renewal frequency, and fees will be stated clearly in the Order prior to purchase;
Your programme will automatically renew unless you cancel at least 3 business days before the renewal date;
You will receive a written renewal reminder at least 7 days before monthly/quarterly renewals and 30 days before annual renewals;
