We sincerely want you to succeed in your efforts to retrain your brain, regain your health, and reclaim your life.

Products will be accepted for refund only if: (a) returned items include all of the product components (b) product return form has been completed and submitted (c) product return is after six months from date of purchase and within one year (365 days) of purchase date. If you have purchased the DVD series, DVDs should be returned in their original case, along with the printed student manual and transcript, if purchased.* If you would like to receive a refund, please contact us and we will provide you with detailed instructions and a product return form. Please note that we do not replace lost or stolen products, or ones that have been damaged while in your care.

* The book “Wired for Healing” is not eligible for a refund.

You may instruct us to refrain from using or sharing your personal information for any of the two purposes described above at any time by providing written notification to DNRS.  We acknowledge that the sharing of your personal information for any of those two purposes is at your option and we will not refuse you access to any product or service merely because you have instructed us to stop using or sharing your personal information in those ways.

When your personal information is to be used for a purpose not previously identified, we will disclose that the new purpose to you before such use, and we will seek your consent unless the use is authorized or required by law.

CONSENT

We will obtain your consent to collect, use or disclose personal information except where we are authorized or required by law to do so without consent.

Your consent can be express, implied or given through an authorized representative such as a lawyer, agent or broker. Consent may be provided orally, in writing, electronically, through inaction (such as when you fail to notify us that you do not wish your personal information collected/used/disclosed for various purposes after you have received notice of those purposes) or otherwise.

You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal, contractual and other restrictions, provided that you give us reasonable notice of withdrawal of consent.

LIMITS ON COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

LIMITS FOR USING, DISCLOSING AND RETAINING PERSONAL INFORMATION

Your personal information will only be used or disclosed for the purposes set out above and as authorized by law.

We will keep personal information used to make a decision affecting you for at least one year after using it to make the decision.

We will destroy, erase or make anonymous documents or other records containing personal information as soon as it is reasonable to assume that the original purpose is no longer being served by retention of the information and retention is no longer necessary for a legal or business purpose.

We will take due care when destroying personal information so as to prevent unauthorized access to the information.

SERVICE PROVIDERS

We may retain agents, subcontractors or service providers from time to time in relation to our business or the products or services that we provide. If we require a service provider to deal with your personal information, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the service provider adheres to privacy procedures and will keep your personal information confidential. We will not provide more information than is necessary to the service provider and will ensure that the information is returned or destroyed once the purpose for which it was given is filled.

Our service providers may be located outside of Canada, and you acknowledge that personal information may be processed and stored in foreign jurisdictions with different (and perhaps weaker) privacy laws, and that the governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory agencies in those jurisdictions may be able to obtain disclosure of that personal information through the laws of the foreign jurisdiction.

ACCURACY

We will make a reasonable effort to ensure that personal information we are using or disclosing is accurate and complete.
If you demonstrate that personal information is inaccurate or incomplete, we will amend the information as required.  If appropriate, we will send the amended information to third parties to whom the information has been disclosed.

If a challenge regarding the accuracy of personal information is not resolved to your satisfaction, we will annotate the personal information under our control with a note that the correction was requested but not made.

SAFEGUARDING PERSONAL INFORMATION

We protect the personal information in our custody or control by making reasonable physical, organizational and electronic security arrangements to prevent unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or similar risks.

Note that confidentiality and security are not assured when information is transmitted through e-mail or other wireless communication.

PROVIDING ACCESS

You have a right to access your personal information that we hold.

Upon written request and authentication of identity, we will provide you your personal information under our control.  We will also give you information about the ways in which that information is being used and a description of the individuals and organizations to whom that information has been disclosed.  We may charge you a reasonable fee for doing so.

We will make the information available within 30 days of receiving a written request or provide written notice where additional time is required to fulfil the request.

In some situations, we may not be able to provide access to certain personal information (e.g., if disclosure would reveal personal information about another individual, the personal information is protected by solicitor/client privilege, the information was collected for the purposes of an investigation or where disclosure of the information would reveal confidential commercial information that could harm our competitive position).  We may also be prevented by law from providing access to certain personal information.

Where an access request is refused, we will notify you in writing, document the reasons for refusal and outline further steps which are available to you.
