Terms of Service
PAYMENT TERMS FOR RECORDED READINGS
For online readings, PayPal payments are accepted. Payment must be received by Gaius Wong before the commencement of your reading. Please note that all payment transfers are done through the third-party platform PayPal, so please be familiar with the privacy policy and terms of use for this third-party platform. Gaius Wong is not liable for any mishandling by this third-party platform. In the event of third-party mishandling, your claim will be with PayPal directly.
PAYMENT TERMS FOR IN-PERSON READINGS
For in-person readings, cash, credit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay are accepted. Gaius Wong does not accept checks or money orders. If your credit card is declined or payment is not properly transferred due to deficiencies on your end, then Gaius Wong will be entitled to the balance owed plus a 25% interest as additional charge for the deficiency.
REFUND POLICY
Any online tarot reading service may be refunded if and only if the tarot professional failed to address your stated inquiry and the refund is authorized by the tarot professional. To claim a refund, communicate with Gaius Wong directly, at which time he at his discretion has the opportunity to redo the service, offer a gift certificate for a complimentary future service, or to issue the refund. Refunds without reasonable cause are not permitted. Claims of inaccuracy do not constitute reasonable cause. If no reading was performed or your tarot professional has canceled the reading prior to its commencement, then of course, your fee will be refunded to you in full. Gaius Wong exercises great reasonable care and diligence in performing each and every tarot reading. If you are dissatisfied with your reading, please contact Gaius Wong to see if an agreeable settlement may be worked out.
SERVICE REQUESTED IS NOT TIME SENSITIVE
You understand and acknowledge that the service you have requested is not urgent and that time is not of the essence. If, however, your inquiry is urgent or time-sensitive, then separate, additional, written arrangements need to be made with Gaius Wong. If no such documented, written arrangements are made on timing of delivery, then you hereby assure us that your request and needs are not time-sensitive.
SCOPE OF MINISTRY SERVICES
The services provided are part of the ministry of Gaius Wong, who is a member of the clergy ordained by The Universal Life Church Ministries duly organized under the laws of the State of California and who is a member of the clergy ordained by The Church of Spiritual Humanism duly organized under the laws of the State of Pennsylvania.
SCOPE OF LIFE COACH SERVICES
The services provided by Gaius Wong are akin to life coaching services and we strive to help you work on your goals for the future and create the life path you desire. Your experience with Gaius Wong in no way replaces professional counseling from a licensed counselor or therapist and cannot be relied upon in lieu of sound legal, medical, business, or financial advice from licensed or qualified professionals. Gaius Wong in no way diagnoses problems, but rather, suggests creative and intuitive perspectives for understanding your current problems, to help you come up with actions you can take to empower yourself in a way that will maximize your personal and professional potentials. Gaius Wong strives to help you improve the quality of your life by tapping into your creativity and intuition.
DISCLOSURE OF LIMITATIONS
The spirituality-based services of Gaius Wong should never be used in place of professional counseling. Your reading cannot offer legal, medical, business, or financial advice nor does any portion of your reading from Gaius Wong purport to do so. You should not rely on any such spirituality-based service to make any decision that would affect your legal, financial, business, or medical condition. If your inquiry involves the law, finance, business, or medicine, then you should seek the advice of a licensed or qualified legal, financial, business, or medical professional. Also, spirituality-based services by Gaius Wong cannot replace qualified mental health care. A tarot reading can only facilitate how you cope spiritually with a given situation.
VIDEO READING RECORDINGS
Gaius Wong may, at your option, provide video conference consultations or sessions through third party platforms or hosts, such as Skype or Google Hangout. These video sessions may from time to time be recorded. If a video session is recorded, you will be put on notice in advance of the recording. You are entitled to a copy of the video recording, though processing and administrative charges may apply. Before consenting to a video session, please go over any questions or concerns you may have with Gaius Wong. By commencing a video session, you are consenting to the terms herein. Likewise, please be advised that you are not permitted to record video sessions without express, written permission from Gaius Wong. If you would like to record your video session, then please ask before doing so. Reasonable accommodation or arrangements can then be made accordingly.
CONFIDENTIALITY
Gaius Wong exercises reasonable diligence in maintaining the confidentiality of your sessions and we will not voluntarily, knowingly, intentionally, or willfully disclose your identity or the contents of your sessions with us to third parties. However, if Gaius Wong genuinely believes disclosure is required to: (1) prevent imminent harm or risk of harm to yourself or to another, (2) meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or (3) protect or defend Gaius Wong against claims or threats of claims, then Gaius Wong reserves the right to do so to the extent reasonably necessary. Please keep in mind that no legally recognized privilege exists between a tarot professional and client the way a privilege might exist between an attorney and client, doctor and patient, husband and wife, or priest and penitent.
FORTUNE TELLING LAWS
Pursuant to applicable laws of certain jurisdictions, a person can be guilty of fortune telling, still outlawed in certain places, when for a fee or compensation, that person claims or pretends to tell fortunes, or holds him or herself out as being able, by claimed or pretended use of occult powers, to answer questions or give advice on personal matters or to exorcise, influence, or affect evil spirits or curses, unless otherwise done so explicitly for entertainment purposes only. Any and all services provided by Gaius Wong neither claims nor pretends to tell fortunes and neither claims nor pretends to use occult powers in ways that would run against such laws.
FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY
In certain jurisdictions, the spirituality-based services provided by Gaius Wong would require a clear disclaimer that such services are for entertainment purposes only. Thus, if such a law applies to any services provided or any sessions between us, then you are hereby on notice that our session is and can only be for entertainment purposes only. Nonetheless, please note that per the faith and personal spiritual practices of Gaius Wong, all sessions will comply strictly to the morals and codes outlined by that faith and spiritual practice. In other words, we take our moral obligation to you seriously. Irrespective of the law, we treat our spiritual connection with you with reverence, faith, and integrity.
RESERVATION OF RIGHT
From time to time, as would be ordinary for any business, Gaius Wong may modify the Terms of Service and we reserve the right to do so at our discretion accordingly. The terms your service with us will be bound by will be the terms applicable at the time your service was rendered.
