Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: September 14, 2026

1. Who This Agreement Is With

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Abbey Harlow Nonprofit Consulting LLC, doing business as Harlow Nonprofit Consulting ("we," "us," "our"), governing your use of harlownonprofitconsulting.com (the "Site") and any program, event, product, or membership we offer through it, including the Rural Nonprofit Leader Summit, the Rural Roots Toolkit, and the Rural Roots Roundtable membership (collectively, the "Services").

By registering for the Summit, purchasing the Toolkit, joining the Roundtable, or otherwise using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Services.

2. Who Can Use the Services

You must be at least 18 years old to register, purchase, or become a member. The Services are intended for nonprofit leaders and professionals; anyone may register for the free Summit ticket, but paid offers are billed and fulfilled to the person who completes checkout.

3. Description of Services

  • Rural Nonprofit Leader Summit: A free virtual event with a limited access window per day, as described on the registration page at the time of your registration.

  • Rural Roots Toolkit: A one-time paid upgrade that extends access to Summit content and adds bonus resources and live sessions, as described on the Toolkit page at the time of purchase.

  • Rural Roots Roundtable: A recurring paid membership community, currently offered with a free trial period before the monthly rate begins, as described on the membership page at the time you join.

Specific features, bonuses, dates, and pricing are as stated on the relevant page at the time of your registration or purchase, and may change for future participants without changing what you already purchased.

4. Payment

All payments are processed securely through Stripe. We do not store your full credit card number on our own systems. By purchasing the Toolkit or joining the Roundtable, you authorize us to charge the payment method you provide for the applicable one-time or recurring fee, including future monthly charges until you cancel.

5. No Refunds

All purchases are final. This includes the Rural Roots Toolkit and any month of Rural Roots Roundtable membership already billed. We don't issue refunds for:

  • Change of mind after purchase

  • Not attending live sessions or using the material you had access to

  • Partial months of membership, including the final month before you cancel

  • The free trial converting into a paid month because it wasn't canceled before the trial ended

Canceling your Rural Roots Roundtable membership: You can cancel anytime before your next billing date to avoid being charged for the following month. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current paid (or trial) period. We don't prorate or refund the current period.

If something goes genuinely wrong on our end (a billing error, a technical failure that prevented you from accessing something you paid for), email abbey@harlownonprofitconsulting.com and we'll make it right on a case-by-case basis. 

6. Chargebacks
If you have a billing concern, please email us first at abbey@harlownonprofitconsulting.com so we can look into it. Filing a chargeback or payment dispute with your bank or card issuer instead of contacting us first is a breach of these Terms, and we may immediately suspend or end your access to the Toolkit or Roundtable in response, in addition to any other rights we have

7. Intellectual Property

All content we provide through the Summit, the Toolkit, and the Roundtable, including recordings, worksheets, templates, the resource library, and community materials, belongs to Harlow Nonprofit Consulting or our speakers and partners. It's licensed to you for your own personal or organizational use.

You may not resell, redistribute, publicly share, or repost this material, or use it to create a competing product or program, without our written permission.

8. Community Conduct (Rural Roots Roundtable)

Membership is hosted on a third-party community platform. To keep it a good place for rural nonprofit leaders, we expect members to:

  • Treat other members and any guests with respect

  • Keep information shared by other members within the community confidential

  • Not use the community to solicit sales, recruit for unrelated programs, or spam other members

We can remove any member from the community, without refund, for violating these expectations or for behavior we determine, in our judgment, is harmful to the community. Anything you post in the community may be visible to other members and is not private or confidential to u

9.Speaker, Guest, and Contributor Content

If you appear as a speaker, guest, or contributor for the Summit or any Harlow Nonprofit Consulting program (including submitting a bio, headshot, video, or recorded session), you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free right to record, edit, host, and reuse that content, and your name, likeness, and voice, to promote and deliver the Summit and related programs, both during the live event and afterward (for example, in replays, marketing, or future programs). If you'd rather we not reuse something past the live event, tell us in writing before the Summit and we'll work with you on that.

If you submit a testimonial, review, or story about your experience with our programs, you give us permission to use it, in whole or in part, in our marketing, with attribution by first name and organization unless you ask us not to.

10. Not Professional Advice

Harlow Nonprofit Consulting provides coaching, consulting, facilitation, and educational content on nonprofit leadership, strategy, and fundraising. Nothing we provide through the Summit, the Toolkit, the Roundtable, or any other Service is legal, tax, financial, accounting, or HR advice. You're responsible for getting qualified professional advice specific to your organization before acting on anything you learn from us.

11. No Guaranteed Results

Examples, testimonials, and stories we share reflect individual experiences. They aren't a promise of what you or your organization will achieve. Your results depend on your own effort, circumstances, and organization, and we don't guarantee any specific funding, revenue, membership, or leadership outcome.

12. Third-Party Platforms

We use third-party tools to deliver the Services, including but not limited to Stripe (payments), a community platform, and email and automation tools. Your use of those platforms may also be governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We aren't responsible for the availability, security, or practices of third-party platforms.

13. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Harlow Nonprofit Consulting and its owner won't be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Services, including lost revenue, lost data, or lost opportunities. Our total liability for any claim related to the Services is limited to the amount you actually paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we'll update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the Services after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

15. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Vermont, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
