Terms of Service
Welcome to Unified Barber Academy (“UBA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using our website, platform, content, courses, coaching, mentorship, or any other product or service we offer (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use our Services.
1. Binding Agreement
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (the user, student, purchaser, or client) and Unified Barber Academy. They apply to all Services we provide, whether purchased, subscribed to, or accessed free of charge, including the Academy library, private 1-on-1 advisory tiers, downloadable materials, video lessons, and any coaching, mentorship, or community access.
2. Program Scope and Educational Nature
Unified Barber Academy provides technical cutting instruction, operational business guidance, and private advisory mentorship for professional barbers and shop owners. All instructional media, video breakdowns, technical roadmaps, and written materials are educational resources intended to build practical trade capability.
This content is for educational purposes only. It is not a substitute for professional licensing, provincial/state trade certification, or formal barber licensing requirements, unless explicitly stated otherwise. UBA is not responsible for how you apply, interpret, or act on the material provided.
3. Cancellation & Refund Policy
You may cancel any order and receive a full refund within one (1) hour of the time of purchase, provided you have not yet accessed or downloaded course materials.
To cancel within this window, email info@unifiedbarberacademy.com with your order number and request. Cancellation requests received after the 1-hour window has closed will not be honored, and the sale will be treated as final under Section 4 below.
We recommend reviewing course descriptions, pricing, and program scope carefully before completing your purchase, as this window is brief.
4. No Refund Policy - All Sales Final After the Cancellation Window
Outside of the 1-hour cancellation window described in Section 3, all purchases are non-refundable and final. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Course access (lifetime or time-limited)
- One-time payments or installment plans
- Downloadable materials
- Video lessons, modules, or tutorials
- Coaching, mentorship, or community access
- Private advisory or mentorship tiers (Pro Mentorship, Career Builder, Shop Launch)
Once the 1-hour window has passed, no refunds, cancellations, or credits will be issued under any circumstance, including non-use of the program, dissatisfaction with results, or voluntary withdrawal.
5. Chargebacks & Dispute Prevention
By purchasing from Unified Barber Academy, you agree to contact us at info@unifiedbarberacademy.com with any billing question or technical issue before initiating a chargeback, dispute, or refund request through your payment provider or card issuer.
Chargebacks filed in violation of this section, where no attempt was made to resolve the issue with us directly, may result in:
- Immediate termination of access to all Services
- Referral to collections for the disputed amount
- Legal action for breach of this Agreement
Note: your right to dispute a charge with your card issuer or bank exists independently of this Agreement and cannot be waived by these Terms.
6. Earnings and Results Disclaimer
Unified Barber Academy makes no guarantees regarding your personal success, income, client acquisition, or skill development. Barber revenue, chair rental margins, and shop performance depend on factors outside our control, including but not limited to:
- Personal work ethic and cutting speed
- Prior experience or skill level
- Regional market rates and local demand
- Client retention and consistency of execution
- Financial and economic environment
- Mental and physical health
- Access to tools, equipment, or a workspace
- Natural aptitude or learning speed
While we aim to provide high-quality education, mentorship, and guidance, outcomes are never promised or assured.
7. Currency and Billing Terms
- The online Academy library is billed in USD as a one-time enrollment payment (unless a payment plan is selected - see Section 8).
- Private 1-on-1 advisory tiers (Pro Mentorship, Career Builder, and Shop Launch) are quoted in CAD and require a formal application call prior to acceptance and payment.
8. Payments, Access, and Installments
If you select a payment plan, you agree to complete all scheduled payments in full and on time. Failure to make payments on time may result in:
- Suspension of access to course content or advisory services
- Additional late fees
- Referral to collections
Access will remain restricted until any outstanding balance is resolved.
9. Intellectual Property

10. User Conduct and Termination
We reserve the right to revoke access for any user who violates these Terms, disrupts our community, abuses the platform, or acts in bad faith. No refunds will be issued in the event of termination due to a conduct violation, regardless of remaining course access or program length.
11. Limitation of Liability
Under no circumstances will Unified Barber Academy, its founders, instructors, or team members be held liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages (including loss of income, reputation, employment, or business opportunities) arising from your use of, or reliance on, our Services.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any legal disputes must be filed and resolved within the courts of Ontario.
