Educational Purpose & Medical Information
Health, nutrition, digestive-health, and wellness information provided through The Wellness Thread is intended for educational and general informational purposes.
It is not medical diagnosis, medical treatment, or individualized medical advice.
Use of the website, books, courses, communities, or other materials does not create a doctor-patient relationship.
Please review the separate Medical Disclaimer for additional information.
Digital Products
The Wellness Thread sells digital products including eBooks, cookbooks, collections, bundles, and other downloadable materials.
Digital purchases are intended for the purchaser's personal use unless different written permission is provided.
After successful checkout, digital products may be made available through an online download page.
You are responsible for using a compatible device, internet connection, PDF reader, or other software necessary to access digital materials.
If a verified technical problem prevents access to a purchased file, you may contact The Wellness Thread for assistance.
Digital Product Refunds
Because digital products are provided electronically and access is made available after purchase, digital-product sales are final and non-refundable except where otherwise required by applicable law.
A technical access problem is not the same as a refund request. If a purchased file or download link does not function correctly, contact The Wellness Thread so the technical problem can be reviewed.
For complete information, please review the separate Digital Product / No-Refund Policy.
Paperback Books & Outside Retailers
Paperback editions may be offered through third-party retailers such as Barnes & Noble.
When you click a retailer link and purchase from an outside website, the transaction occurs between you and that retailer.
The retailer's own pricing, shipping, returns, privacy practices, availability, and other terms apply to that purchase.
The Wellness Thread does not control the checkout systems, shipping practices, inventory, or return policies of outside retailers.
Free Resources
The Wellness Thread may provide free guides, courses, cookbooks, articles, downloads, or other educational resources.
Free access does not transfer ownership of the material or grant permission to reproduce, publish, resell, upload, distribute, or commercially use the content.
Free materials remain protected by applicable copyright and intellectual-property laws.
Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated, original content provided by The Wellness Thread, including written material, books, eBooks, cookbooks, course materials, downloads, graphics, branding, educational resources, and original website content, is owned by or licensed for use by The Wellness Thread and/or Demaris Newberry.
You may use purchased or freely provided materials for your own personal, noncommercial use.

- Resell digital materials
- Publish the material under another name
- Remove copyright or authorship information

Additional details are provided in the Copyright & Content Use Policy.
Personal Use of Purchases
Unless a product specifically states otherwise, purchasing a digital product grants you access for your own personal use.
One purchase does not grant permission to distribute copies to friends, family members, clients, groups, organizations, schools, social-media communities, or other third parties.
If you are interested in using material for a group, educational, professional, or organizational purpose, contact The Wellness Thread to ask whether permission or another arrangement is available.
Community & Social-Media Participation
The Wellness Thread may maintain or link to social-media pages, Facebook groups, or other community spaces.
Participation in a community does not create a healthcare-provider relationship and should not be treated as private medical care.
Users are responsible for the information they choose to post publicly or within a group.
Harassment, spam, unlawful content, impersonation, unauthorized promotion, or other disruptive conduct may result in content removal or loss of access to a community where The Wellness Thread has authority to moderate it.

The Wellness Thread may provide links to third-party websites, retailers, social-media platforms, payment providers, or other services.
These links are provided for convenience or access to relevant services.
The Wellness Thread does not control all content, security, privacy practices, pricing, availability, or policies on outside websites.
Your use of an outside website is governed by that provider's terms and policies.
Accuracy & Availability
Reasonable efforts are made to provide useful and accurate information. However, health information, research, website content, product availability, external links, and other information can change over time.
The Wellness Thread does not guarantee that every page, external link, product, or service will remain continuously available or free from technical errors.
Content may be corrected, updated, revised, reorganized, or removed when appropriate.
No Guarantee of Health Results
Individual health outcomes vary.
The Wellness Thread does not guarantee that using a book, course, recipe, dietary approach, educational resource, or other material will produce a particular health outcome.
Testimonials, community experiences, personal stories, or examples should not be interpreted as guarantees that another person will experience the same result.
Limitation of Responsibility
To the extent permitted by applicable law, The Wellness Thread and Demaris Newberry are not responsible for losses or damages resulting from misuse of the website or reliance on general educational information as a substitute for individualized professional care.
You are responsible for deciding whether information is appropriate for your circumstances and for obtaining professional advice when needed.
Nothing in these terms is intended to exclude or limit rights or responsibilities that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

The Wellness Thread may update, revise, discontinue, reorganize, or replace website content, products, free resources, prices, features, or services when appropriate.
