Thrive+40 Terms & Disclaimer

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Thrive+40 website at thriveplus40.com and any digital guides, free resources, emails, and related content we provide (together, the “Services”). By using the website or purchasing a guide, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

1) Who We Are

Thrive+40 is a health and wellness education website for women over 40, founded by Brenda Chabot and operated from McKinney, Texas. We publish articles and sell digital guides on nutrition, protein, strength training, and healthy aging. You can reach us at brenda@thriveplus40.com.

2) Eligibility

The Services are intended for adults 18 and older. By using the Services, you confirm you are at least 18 years old.

3) No Medical Advice

Everything on this site and in our guides is educational information only. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for care from your physician or other qualified health provider. Always consult your doctor before starting any nutrition or exercise program, especially if you have a medical condition, take medication, or are pregnant. Where our content discusses GLP-1 medications, that content is educational only. We do not prescribe, recommend, or advise on medications. All medication decisions belong with you and your prescriber.

4) No Practitioner-Client Relationship

Reading our content or purchasing a guide does not create a doctor-patient, therapist-client, trainer-client, or any other professional relationship between you and Brenda Chabot or Thrive+40. Our guides are self-directed educational products, not personalized programming or one-on-one services.

5) Our Products

Thrive+40 sells digital guides delivered as downloadable files, and offers free guides delivered by email. When you purchase a guide, you receive a personal, non-transferable license to download and use it for your own personal, non-commercial use. We may update, improve, or discontinue products at any time.

6) Payments

Purchases are processed by our third-party payment processor. Prices are listed in U.S. dollars and may change at any time, though changes will not affect purchases you have already completed. You are responsible for providing accurate payment and contact information so we can deliver your guide.

7) Refunds

Because our guides are digital products delivered instantly, all sales are final and we do not offer refunds once a guide has been delivered. If something goes wrong with your order, such as a broken download link or the wrong file, email brenda@thriveplus40.com and we will make it right.

8) Your Responsibilities and Assumption of Risk

Physical exercise and changes to your nutrition carry inherent risks, including the risk of injury. By using our content, you voluntarily accept those risks. You agree to use your own judgment, adapt any suggestions to your own health status and abilities, start conservatively, and stop and seek medical attention if you experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or any other concerning symptom. You are responsible for the choices you make with the information we provide.

9) Medical and Wellness Disclaimer

We make no guarantees about specific results. Outcomes from any nutrition or training approach vary from person to person based on health status, consistency, genetics, and many other factors. Testimonials or personal results described on this site, including Brenda’s own, are individual experiences and not a promise of what you will achieve.

10) Intellectual Property

All content on this site and in our guides, including text, guides, graphics, logos, and design, is owned by Thrive+40 and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, share, resell, republish, or distribute our guides or content without written permission, except for personal, non-commercial use with attribution.

11) Affiliate Disclosure

Thrive+40 is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Some links on this site are affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products we genuinely use or believe in.

12) Third-Party Platforms and Links

The Services rely on third-party platforms, including our payment processor, email platform, and website host, and link to third-party websites such as Amazon. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third party. Your use of third-party sites is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

13) Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Thrive+40 and Brenda Chabot will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for any injury, loss, or damage arising from your use of the Services or reliance on our content. Our total liability for any claim related to the Services will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose.

14) Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Thrive+40 and Brenda Chabot from any claims, damages, or expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, arising from your use of the Services or your violation of these Terms.

15) Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Collin County, Texas, and you consent to jurisdiction and venue there.

16) Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version here with a new Last Updated date. Continued use of the Services after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

17) Privacy

Our collection and use of your information is described in our Privacy Policy.
