15. GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION
A. Governing Law: The laws applicable to the interpretation of these Terms of Service shall be the laws of the State of Florida, and applicable federal law, without regard to any conflict of law provisions. Any and all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action (including the interpretation and scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of the controversy, dispute, demand, count, claim, or cause of action) arising out of or in any way related to these Terms of Service (including the Messaging Terms and the Loyalty Terms (as defined below)) (a “Dispute”) between you and the Company or its successors or assigns shall exclusively be settled through binding and confidential arbitration, unless earlier resolved in accordance with Section 15(B), below.
B. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution: In the event of any Dispute arising between you and the Company, one party must first send a written notice of the Dispute to the other party by email with a delivery receipt requested (“Notice”). Company’s email address for Notice is [email protected]. The Notice must describe the nature and basis of the Dispute, and set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). The parties shall first meet and confer by such method as the parties may mutually agree, to attempt to resolve the Dispute. The parties shall work together in good faith to attempt to resolve the Dispute directly for thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, or such further period as the parties may mutually agree. In the event that the Dispute is not resolved by the end of such thirty (30) day (or longer) period, then either party may commence arbitration, as further described below.
C. Arbitration: If the parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through the good faith negotiation procedure set forth in Section 15(B), then you and Company agree that such Dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate Disputes includes all claims arising out of or in any way related to these Terms of Service (including the Messaging Terms and the Loyalty Terms), and your receipt of text messages or email messages from Company or its service providers, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of when a claim arises. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, THE MESSAGING TERMS AND THE LOYALTY TERMS, YOU AND COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
D. Exceptions: Notwithstanding subsection (C) above, nothing in these Terms of Service, the Messaging Terms or the Loyalty Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to:
(i) seek injunctive relief in aid of arbitration from a court of competent jurisdiction; or
(ii) file suit on an individual basis in small claims court for applicable claims.
E. Arbitration Process: Unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be conducted before one arbitrator in Florida or by video conference (at the claimant’s election), and will be governed by National Arbitration and Mediation’s (“NAM”) Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (the “NAM Rules”), as may be modified by these Terms of Service, the Messaging Terms and/or the Loyalty Terms. The NAM Rules and filing forms are available online at www.namadr.com, by calling NAM at 1-800-358-2550, or by contacting Company. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement. In the event that any Dispute is held not to be arbitrable in accordance with this Section 15, each party consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts, as applicable, located in Florida.
F. Fees: If you commence arbitration in accordance with this Section 15, you will pay the Initial Administrative Fee in accordance with NAM’s then-applicable fee schedule. If the claim is for $15,000 or less, you agree that the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the NAM Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse us for all monies we previously paid to NAM pursuant to the NAM Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. Each party agrees that such written decision, and information exchanged during arbitration, will be kept confidential except as may be required by law or to the extent necessary to enforce or permit limited judicial review of the award. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from you or us, which is made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits. In addition, the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law.
G. No Class Actions: To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and Company agree that ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU AGAINST COMPANY MUST BE BROUGHT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF.
H. Enforceability: In the event that the class action waiver in Section 15(G), above, is found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of this Section 15 shall also be unenforceable.
16. ASSIGNMENT
The Company may assign these Terms of Service at any time to a subsidiary or parent company or to a successor to its business as part of a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its business. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms of Service.
17. MISCELLANEOUS
These Terms of Service, the Privacy Policy, the Messaging Terms, the Loyalty Terms, and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Platform or in respect of the Services constitute the entire agreement between you and Company with respect to your access to and use of the Platform and the Services and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements between you and Company (including, without limitation, any prior versions of these Terms of Service).
Except for the class action waiver set forth in Section 15(G), if any other provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then that provision will be construed in a manner consistent with applicable laws to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Any ambiguity in the interpretation of these Terms of Service shall not be construed against Company as the drafting party. The failure of Company to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The provisions of Sections 3-8, and 11-15 shall survive any termination of these Terms of Service.

AUTOMATED DATA COLLECTION / COOKIES
We may use certain automatic analytics and tracking technologies to assist us in performing a variety of functions, including storing your Information, collecting Device Information and Usage Data, understanding your use of the Services and customizing the content offered to you on the Services. We may use platforms like Google Analytics to provide aggregated or anonymized information relating to demographics, geography, interests or affinities. Other technologies we may use include:
(1) Cookies: Cookies are text files placed in your computer’s browser to store your preferences. We use cookies or other tracking technologies to understand site and Internet usage and to improve or customize the Services and the content, offerings, or advertisements you see on the Services. For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience on the Services or remember any settings you have chosen. We also use cookies to learn and track how you access and use the Services, including when and how users visit the Services and how popular particular Service pages are and aren’t. Some cookies may be considered “third-party cookies” that allow your browser to talk to third-party websites, such as the source of an ad that appears on the website you are visiting or a third-party analytics provider. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually configure your browser to prevent this. However, not accepting cookies may make certain features of the Services unavailable to you. The types of information collected by a cookie and the purposes for which that information is used depend on the type of cookie. We may combine information collected by cookies with other Information. Please see our cookie policy for more information.
(2) Web Beacons: We may also use “web beacons” or clear GIFs, or similar technologies, which are small pieces of code placed on a web page or in an email, to monitor the behavior and collect data about the visitors viewing a web page or email. For example, web beacons may be used to count the users who visit a web page or to deliver a cookie to the browser of a visitor viewing that page. Web beacons may also be used to provide information on the effectiveness of our email campaigns (e.g., open rates, clicks, forwards, etc.).
(3) Mobile Device Identifiers and SDKs: We also sometimes use, or partner with publishers or app developer platforms that use, mobile Software Development Kits (“SDKs”) that are incorporated into the Services to collect Information, such as mobile identifiers (e.g., IDFAs and Android Advertising IDs), geolocation information, and other information about your device or use of the Services.

Please note that no such tracking technologies will collect any Personal Data from you unless you choose to submit it to us and that data relating to you individually is not shared with any third parties. For more information, please see our cookie policy.
Remarketing and Advertising
From time to time the Services may use or participate in advertising networks and related advertising services that are managed and provided by third-party advertising servers, advertising agencies, technology vendors, and research firms, including Google Ads and advertising services provided by Meta (sometimes referred to as the Meta “tracking pixel”). These services collect information about your visits to and interactions with the Services and other websites and will use that information to target advertisements for goods and services and to display those advertisements on other websites. The information collected may be associated with your personal information.
Advertising networks often gather data about consumers who view advertisements to make inferences about a consumer’s interests and preferences, which enables their computers to deliver advertisements directly targeted to the consumer’s specific interests. This practice is often referred to as “online behavioral advertising.” For example, a third-party advertising network might collect the type of web browser you use, the type of computer operating system you use, the domain name of a website you visit, whether or not you visit specific pages of the Services and other websites, the location of your Internet service provider, the date and time of a visit to a website, and other interactions between you and a website.
Through Google Ads, Google uses your Internet searches, cookies, and similar identifiers (e.g., pixel tags) to collect information about your visits to the Service and your interaction with our products and services to generate targeted advertisements to you on other websites that you visit across the Internet. We may also enable and implement Google Analytics Advertising Features on the Services. To opt out of remarketing advertising provided through Google, to customize your ad preferences, or to limit Google’s collection or use this information, visit Google’s Safety Center and Google’s Ad Settings and follow Google’s personalized ad opt-out instructions. Opting out will not affect your use of the Service.
For certain Meta advertising services, Meta Ireland is a Joint Controller (as defined in the GDPR) and information required under the GDPR related to such processing can be found on Meta’s privacy page. We work with Meta and use their advertising services to measure and improve our ads and marketing efforts, as well as to display more relevant advertising to you. For further information on how Meta Ireland processes your personal information, including the legal basis, and the ways to exercise your rights, please visit Meta’s privacy resources.
To change your preferences with respect to certain online ads and to obtain more information about third-party ad networks and online behavioral advertising, please visit the National Advertising Initiative Consumer opt-out page or the Digital Advertising Alliance Self-Regulatory Program. Please remember that changing your settings with individual web browsers or ad networks will not necessarily carry over to other browsers or ad networks. As a result, depending on the opt-outs you request, you may still see our ads from time to time. Your device may also include a feature (“Limit Ad Tracking” on iOS or “Opt Out of Interest-Based Ads” on Android) that allows you to opt out of having certain information collected through apps used for behavioral advertising purposes.
Analytics
The Services use third-party analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to collect and process data about your use of the Services, including when you visit the Services, URLs of the websites that you visit prior to visiting the Services and when you visit those websites, and IP addresses assigned to the devices from where you access the Internet. Our analytics providers may set and read cookies to collect this data and your web browser will automatically send data collected by those cookies to our analytics providers. Our analytics providers use this data to provide us with reports that we will use to improve the Services’ structure and content.
For more information on how Google uses this data, visit Google’s Privacy Notice and Google’s page on partner sites.

At Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics, we are dedicated to providing the highest standard of care in order to deliver the best possible treatment results. To that end, it is essential that clients understand our refund policy and the commitment we expect from clients regarding their treatment outcomes.
No Refunds on Services
First and foremost, it is crucial to make it clear that all services provided by Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics are non-refundable. While we strive to achieve the best results possible, we do not guarantee outcomes as individual results can vary significantly.
The success of any treatment depends on numerous factors, including the client’s commitment to following post-treatment care instructions and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Depending on the specific case, credit may be refunded to the client’s Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics’ account.
Setting Realistic Expectations
At Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics, we prioritize setting realistic expectations from the outset. During your initial consultation, our skilled practitioners will discuss the potential outcomes of your chosen treatment and ensure you have a clear understanding of what can be realistically achieved. This transparency helps prevent any misunderstandings and ensures you are fully informed before proceeding with any treatment.
Our Commitment to Excellence
We are committed to upholding the highest standards of practice in all our treatments. Our experienced team utilizes the latest technology and techniques to deliver exceptional results. We continuously invest in training and development to ensure that our practitioners remain at the forefront of the industry, providing you with the best care possible.
Individualized Attention
While we do not offer refunds, we are dedicated to addressing any concerns you may have. If you feel that the results of your treatment did not meet your expectations, we encourage you to reach out to us. Every situation is dealt with individually, and we will work closely with you to understand your concerns and determine the best course of action. This may include additional treatments or alternative solutions tailored to your specific needs.
Commitment to Client Satisfaction
Your satisfaction is of utmost importance to us. Although we cannot guarantee specific results, we do guarantee that we will make every effort to ensure you have a positive experience at Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics. If a treatment does not yield the expected results, we are committed to exploring other options that may better suit your needs. Our goal is to work collaboratively with you to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Lifestyle and Treatment Impact
It is essential to recognize that the success of any treatment is not solely dependent on the procedures we perform. Your lifestyle choices play a significant role in the overall effectiveness of your treatment. Maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and following post-treatment care instructions are vital to achieving and sustaining the desired results. Our team will provide you with guidance and support to help you make the necessary lifestyle adjustments to enhance the effectiveness of your treatments.
Conclusion
At Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics, it is our mission to deliver exceptional care and a positive treatment experience. While we do not offer refunds on services, we promise to uphold the highest standards of practice and work diligently to address any concerns you may have. By setting realistic expectations and emphasizing the importance of a healthy lifestyle, we aim to help you achieve the best possible results.

Academy Cancellation & Refund Policy
The following refund policy applies in the case of student withdrawal, course or program cancellation, or academy closure. Approved refunds are made within 30 days of the official day of cancellation or withdrawal. Should a student be terminated or withdrawn for any reason, all refunds will be made accordingly:
Should a student cancel or withdraw for any reason, written notification must be submitted to the school for the attention of the Registration Department via email.
All refunds will be made (including the $150.00 registration fee) if the applicant is not accepted by the school or if the student cancels within three (3) business days after making the initial payment.
Registration Fees apply to a specific start date for a diploma program or workshop. Therefore, the registration fee cannot be applied to a future diploma program or workshop.
After registering for a diploma program, cancellation after the third (3rd) Business Day, but before the first class, results in a refund of all monies paid, with the exception of the registration fee (not to exceed $150.00) and any books, uniforms, supplies, and/or products purchased.
For students enrolled in diploma programs, cancellation after attendance has begun, through 40% completion of a program, will result in a Pro Rata refund computed on the number of hours completed to the total program hours. The school shall retain all earned tuition and the cost of any textbooks, materials, and exam fees. Cancellation after completing more than 40% of the program will result in no refund. For refund calculation purposes, a student’s last date of attendance shall be used to determine total hours toward a program’s total hours taken.
For students enrolled in workshops, cancellation after the third (3rd) Business Day, but more than seven (7) days before the first class, results in a refund of all monies paid, with the exception of the registration fee (not to exceed $150.00). Cancellation seven (7) or fewer days before the first day of class will result in no refund. If a student registers seven (7) days or less before the class start date, the $150.00 registration fee is non-refundable.
A student may apply previously paid tuition to another program pursuant to these policies within one year from the first scheduled class date of the original program. A student may apply tuition to another program only once.
Refunds will be made using the same payment method and to the same payee as the original tuition payment. Refunds by credit card will generally be refunded to the same credit card used to pay the tuition. Refunds by check or cash will be refunded by check.
All refunds will be made within 30 days of the date that the student withdraws or is administratively withdrawn. FAMA will determine that a student has withdrawn when we receive written notification from the student wishing to withdraw, when the student is absent from scheduled class for 8 consecutive days, and/or when the student fails to meet satisfactory academic progress requirements as defined in the Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics Catalog.
Classes may be canceled due to low enrollment. In such an instance, a full refund will be provided to all applicants who have enrolled in the canceled program.
If an enrolled student misses a Workshop or Master class, they may attend the next available session to make up the class, subject to a class make up fee for each day missed.
If a Licensure student misses at least four (4) days in a given week, they must pay a $500 fee to cover the full week. Licensure students are permitted a maximum of eight (8) absences, provided a written excuse is submitted beforehand to Student Services.
ACCEPTANCE
If accepted by Florida Academy of Medical Aesthetics, all terms and conditions outlined herein together with the School Catalog shall become binding; A signed copy of this Enrollment Agreement will be available to the student prior to signature.
TUITION
Tuition is payable in full or in monthly installments according to the payment plan selected by the student on this Enrollment Agreement. Tuition is payable in U.S. funds, by check on a U.S. bank, credit card, bank card, or money order. All prices for the diploma programs are printed or filled in on this Enrollment Agreement.
Tuition does not include the cost of textbooks, software, or other required course materials. FAMA may sell, assign, or transfer the Enrollment Agreement at any time to third parties. Cost of credit is included in the price for goods and services. If the student fails to make any scheduled tuition payment within 10 calendar days of its due date, FAMA reserves the right to cancel this agreement. Upon such cancellation, the balance of tuition owed for the program will become due and payable immediately, and the student will be entitled to a refund according to the established refund policy.

For more information about what cookies and pixel tags are, what they do, and how you can opt out of, manage, or delete them, please review this Cookie Notice.
WHAT ARE COOKIES
A cookie is a small piece of data (a text file or computer code) that a website– when visited by a user– asks your browser to store locally on your device, to identify your browser and/or device as you browse the Internet and, in some cases, store information about that browser or device. Cookies can be placed, read, and/or written to by our website in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Those cookies are set by us and called first-party cookies. We also use third-party cookies – which are cookies from a third party – for our advertising and marketing efforts.
Cookies are often used in conjunction with “pixel tags” (also known as “web beacons” or “clear gifs”). Pixel tags are small images that we, our analytics providers, advertisers, and other third parties can use to interact with cookies and other tracking technologies. For example, we use pixel tags to evaluate the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing campaigns by determining whether you open and interact with the content in our promotional emails. For more information about cookies, please see allaboutcookies.org.

Persistent Cookies: “Persistent cookies” are stored for a preset amount of time (often between 90 days and two years, depending on the application) and are typically not deleted when a browser session is closed.
Your choices may affect whether we use session or persistent cookies for a particular application. For example, ordinarily, our website stores your log in status on a session cookie, and each time you start a new browser session you must log in again. However, if you select “Remember Me,” your log in status is instead stored on a persistent cookie so you do not need to log in each time you visit our website.
