5.1 Online Courses
When you purchase an online course, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and view the course materials for a period of 12 months from the date of purchase, unless a different access period is stated on the product page.
Online courses are eligible for a 14-day money-back guarantee subject to the consumption threshold described in our Refund Policy.

5.2 Recipe Cards and PDF Downloads
Recipe cards and similar PDF downloads are delivered immediately upon purchase and are yours to keep indefinitely, subject to the license terms in Section 9.
At checkout, you will be required to expressly consent to immediate delivery and to acknowledge that by doing so you waive your right of withdrawal. Once delivery has begun, no refund is available.

5.3 Mentorship and Live Programs
Mentorship and live programs are provided for the duration stated in the product description. Access to any recorded materials from these programs, where available, is provided for 12 months from program completion, unless otherwise stated.

6. Subscription Services
6.1 Recurring Billing and Auto-Renewal
By subscribing, you authorize Shadrenko LLC, through Stripe, to charge your payment method on a recurring basis at the price and billing frequency disclosed at checkout (currently $24 per month or $96 per year, subject to change as set forth below).
Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period until you cancel, unless you cancel in accordance with Section 7 before the renewal date. Renewal charges will be billed to your payment method on file without further notice, except where required by law.

6.2 Pricing
Current subscription prices are:

Monthly plan: $24 per month, billed monthly
Annual plan: $96 per year, billed annually (equivalent to $8 per month)

We reserve the right to change subscription pricing. Any price change will apply to billing cycles that begin after the change is communicated to you. We will notify active subscribers of price changes at least 30 days in advance via the email address on file. If you do not agree to a new price, you may cancel your subscription before the change takes effect.
6.3 Renewal Reminders for Annual Subscriptions
For annual subscriptions, we will send a renewal reminder by email to the address on file at least 7 days before the scheduled annual renewal date, unless a shorter period is permitted by applicable law.

7. Subscription Cancellation
7.1 How to Cancel
You may cancel your subscription at any time by either of the following methods:
Option 1 — Self-service through your account. Log in to your account on the learning platform, navigate to your subscription settings, and click the "Cancel subscription" button. Your cancellation is processed automatically and takes effect immediately upon confirmation.
Option 2 — Email cancellation. Send an email to service@mariacake.com from the email address associated with your account, with a clear statement that you wish to cancel your subscription. We will process your cancellation manually within 48 hours.
Both methods are equally valid. You may use whichever is more convenient.
7.2 Confirmation and Timing

Self-service cancellation through your account takes effect immediately and you will receive an automatic confirmation email from our payment processor. No further action is required.
Email cancellation will be confirmed by our team within 48 hours of receiving your request. The confirmation will include the date of cancellation, the date through which your access remains active, and confirmation that no further charges will be made.
If you cancel by email and do not receive confirmation within 48 hours, the date of your original request will be treated as the effective cancellation date.
To avoid being charged for the next billing period, your cancellation must be completed (either through self-service or by email) before 11:59 PM UTC on the day before your scheduled renewal date.

7.3 Access After Cancellation
Following cancellation, you will retain access to content until the end of your current paid billing period. No refunds or pro-rated credits will be issued for the remainder of the paid period, as further described in our Refund Policy.
7.4 Failed Payments
If a renewal charge fails (for example, due to expired card, insufficient funds, or bank decline), we may suspend or terminate your access to the subscription immediately, without notice, consistent with our payment processor's standard retry practices. To restore access, you must update your payment method and, if necessary, complete a new subscription purchase.

8. Refunds
Refunds, where available, are governed by our Refund Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

9. Intellectual Property

Upon termination, your license to access the Services ends immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including IP, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution) will survive.

16. Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver (U.S. Residents)
This Section applies to users residing in the United States. Users outside the United States: see Section 17.
16.1 Informal Resolution Required First
Before filing any formal claim, you agree to first contact us at service@mariacake.com with a written description of your dispute, your contact information, and the relief you are seeking. You and we agree to attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 60 days before initiating arbitration.
16.2 Binding Arbitration
If the dispute is not resolved informally, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, in Wyoming or by remote/telephonic hearing, in English.
16.3 Class Action Waiver
You and Shadrenko LLC each agree that any dispute will be brought only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any class or representative proceeding.
16.4 Exceptions
Nothing in this Section prevents either party from:

Bringing an individual claim in small claims court for disputes within that court's jurisdiction
Seeking injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property rights

16.5 30-Day Opt-Out
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to service@mariacake.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your full name, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration.
16.6 Statute of Limitations
Any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of the Services or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim arose, or be forever barred, except where applicable law prohibits such limitation.
17. Dispute Resolution for Users Outside the United States
If you reside outside the United States, you may bring claims in any court that has jurisdiction over you under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence. We may bring claims against you only in the courts of your country of residence, except for claims related to intellectual property, which we may bring in any court of competent jurisdiction.
18. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
This choice of law does not deprive you of any protection granted to you by mandatory provisions of the consumer protection laws of your country, state, or region of residence.
19. Statutory Consumer Rights
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any non-waivable rights you may have under the consumer protection laws of your country, state, or region of residence.
For EU and UK consumers: you will benefit from any mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you are resident, including (where applicable) statutory rights of withdrawal under Directive 2011/83/EU and equivalent legislation.
20. Modifications to These Terms
We may modify these Terms at any time. The "Effective Date" at the top reflects the most recent revision.
For material changes, we will notify active subscription users by email at least 14 days before the changes take effect, where reasonably possible. For one-time purchasers and general visitors, updated Terms apply prospectively from the Effective Date.
Your continued use of the Services after the Effective Date constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Services and may cancel any active subscription.
21. Miscellaneous
Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with the Refund Policy and Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements, oral or written.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms without restriction.
Force Majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, war, civil unrest, internet outages, or actions of third-party service providers.
Notices. We may send notices to the email address associated with your account. Notices to us must be sent to service@mariacake.com.
Language. These Terms are written in English. Any translations are for convenience only; the English version controls in case of conflict.
