If you order a service or product, payment must be received by us before your order is accepted. We may require additional information regarding your order if any required information was missing or inaccurate and may cancel or limit an order any time after it has been placed. Your electronic order confirmation, or any form of confirmation, does not signify our acceptance of your order. You must contact us immediately at support@hanouninstitute.com. in order to modify or cancel your pending order.

If the availability of any product or service is delayed and you do not wish to substitute the product or service, upon your request, we will cancel your order and if previously charged, your payment card will be fully refunded for that specific order. We reserve the right to limit the sales of our products and services to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction.

When you communicate with Hanoun Institute through or on the Website or via other forms of electronic media, such as email, you are communicating with the company electronically. You agree that we may communicate electronically with you and that such communications, as well as notices, disclosures, agreements, and other communications that we provide to you electronically, are equivalent to communications in writing and shall have the same force and effect as if they were in writing and signed by the party sending the communication.

Subscription Terms and Automatic Payments

A Program user is responsible for paying all sums due to the Company in connection with their monthly subscription in accordance with these Terms. The first fee payable in accordance with these Terms is due when the user account is set up and payment of the monthly fee is a condition of access. Every calendar month, your account will be charged the subscription fee plus applicable tax for the following month’s subscription, together with any other fees for the following month’s subscription plus any accumulated charges for the past period (collectively “Fees”).

Failure by the Program user to use any of the services available through the service provided by the Company does not relieve the Program user of their payment obligations under these Terms. Potential users can pay by credit card or debit card. Payment details shall be collected by us through our secure financial data collection mechanism. You acknowledge and agree that we hold data relating to the transaction, including the last four digits and the expiration date of the card used to purchase the products or services together with details on when payment is due.

 You further acknowledge and agree that payments are due on a recurring basis in accordance with the payment terms for the specific service purchased (unless the subscription is canceled in accordance with these Terms) and therefore authorize the automatic payment collection terms applicable to that specific service (e.g., on a monthly basis and for a specific amount).

The Company reserves the right to immediately terminate a user’s account and/or service for any unpaid (in whole or part) period of the subscription (with or without notice). Termination of service in no way relieves or excuses the user from any obligation to pay outstanding charges or expenses. In the event Hanoun Institute starts collection processes of any type, you will be liable for all collection costs, including legal fees and expenses, as provided in Section 18 below. In addition to any Fees, the Company may also charge applicable value added or other tax.

Shipping Fees

Unless otherwise stated on the Website at the time of purchase, if we ship you a physical product, we reserve the right to add applicable shipping and handling fees to your order. Unless otherwise stated, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill your order within a reasonable time after receipt of your properly completed and verified order. Accurate shipping address and phone number information is required. Although we may provide delivery or shipment timeframes or dates, such dates are good-faith estimates and are subject to change. If your order will be delayed, we will contact you at the e-mail address you provided when placing your order. If we are unable to contact you or you would like to cancel your order, we will cancel the order and refund the full amount charged. We shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost, or expense related to any delay in shipment or delivery caused by any third-party carrier or other delivery service not owned or controlled by us. The risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to any third-party carrier.

Custom Plans

The Company requires a detailed questionnaire to be completed by the customer to identify if our Program is right for you. By completing this questionnaire and Intake Form, the customer recognizes that in preparing this questionnaire they have disclosed true accurate and fair information about their health. Upon receipt of their plan the customer agrees to confirm with their physician that the customer is medically cleared to engage in this type of athletic program. The customer understands that providing false information and failing to seek a medical opinion as to their ability to carry out these plans could result in serious bodily injury and even death.

The customer is required to carefully review any provided plans against existing food allergies the customer may have. It is the customer’s responsibility to verify that the plan does not use foods that he/she may be allergic. While we attempt to tailor each plan to meet the dietary needs of the customer, the ultimate burden of ensuring that the customer does not eat a food with which they may have an allergy to rests with customer. By completing the questionnaire and Intake Form the customer specifically agrees to indemnify and release the Company from any injury resulting from a discrepancy in this questionnaire or from own failure to seek medical advice to verify one's ability to engage in the Program. The customer specifically understands that our Program does not have doctors on staff and that this service is provided to be used in conjunction with proper medical guidance.

General Refund Policy

Please note that returns for credit and debit card transactions are issued within two (2) business days after processed by our client services team, however it may take up to ten (10) for the credit to post to your credit card or bank account.

Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration

Summary:

If you have concerns, please first contact our Customer Service Center at support@andrewhanoun.com. If unresolved, disputes will be settled through binding arbitration rather than court. Arbitration is less formal and uses a neutral arbitrator, with limited court review. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will handle arbitration. Claims will be individual; class or group actions are not allowed. If you win and the award exceeds our last settlement offer, we may pay you more and cover reasonable attorney’s fees.

Arbitration Agreement & Class Action Waiver

We agree to arbitrate all disputes, including those related to our relationship, claims before these Terms, and any claims post-termination. This includes disputes involving our subsidiaries and affiliates.

Furthermore you agree to also waive your right to bring a class action. This class action waiver applies, even if a court of competent jurisdiction finds the requirement to arbitrate, invalid or unenforceable. You also waive your ability to request a jury trial, should the arbitration provisions of these terms fail.

The Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) governs this agreement. It survives termination of these Terms.

Initiating Arbitration:
  • Send a written Notice of Dispute via U.S. mail to:

    Hanoun Institute of Health
  • 1552 South Route 59 #1478
  • Naperville, IL 60564
  • The Notice must describe the dispute and the relief sought.
  • If unresolved in 30 days, arbitration may be initiated.
  • ​Download the arbitration form from AAA's website.
  • ​Program will reimburse the filing fee if your claim is $75,000 or less. For claims over $75,000, fees follow AAA rules.
Arbitration Process:
  • Follow AAA’s Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes.
  • Hearings will be in Illinois, unless otherwise agreed.
  • For claims of $10,000 or less, arbitration can be based on documents, or by phone or in-person, as chosen.
  • T​he arbitrator’s decision will be reasoned and written.
Award and Fees:
  • If you win and the award exceeds our last settlement offer, we may pay $2,000 plus reasonable attorney’s fees.
  • Attorney’s fees awarded will not be duplicative. We will not seek attorney’s fees if we win.
Limitations:
  • Arbitrator may only award relief to the individual and cannot handle class or group claims.
  • Claims exceeding $75,000 or seeking injunctive relief may be appealed to a three-arbitrator panel within 30 days of the award.
Changes and Termination:
  • Material changes to this arbitration provision will not apply to disputes with written notice before the change.
  • Termination of this provision will not affect disputes prior to termination and will be effective 30 days after notice.
Severability of Agreement

If any provision of the Agreement is found by a court or other binding authority to be invalid, you agree that every attempt shall be made to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in that provision, and the remaining provisions contained in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
