Please also review the Terms of Use at https://www.thenpaacademy.com/pages/terms which also govern use of this Site.

Use of Information: As a general policy, no personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, or e-mail address, is automatically collected from your visit to the Site. However, certain non-personal information is recorded by the standard operation of the Company’s internet servers. Information such as the type of browser being used, its operating system, and your IP address is gathered in order to enhance your online experience.

The Site’s various mailing lists, downloads, special offers, contests, registration forms, and surveys may request that you give us contact information such as your name, mailing and/or e-mail address, demographic information such as your age and gender, and personal preference information such as your preferred software and interests. Information submitted at the time of submission will be used by the Company only as necessary for our legitimate business interests, including without limitation the improvement of our products, services and the contents of the Site. Personally identifiable information is never sold or leased to any third parties. With your permission, we may use your contact information to send you information about our company and products. You may always opt-out of receiving future mailings as provided below. The Company does not store any credit card information it may receive in regard to a specific transaction and/or billing arrangement except as necessary to complete and satisfy its rights and obligations with regard to such transaction, billing arrangement, and/or as otherwise authorized by a user.

The Company may disclose user information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference (either intentionally or unintentionally) with the Company’s rights or property, other users of the Site, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.

Children Age 13 and Under: The Company recognizes the special obligation to protect personally identifiable information obtained from children age 13 and under. AS SUCH, IF YOU ARE 13 YEARS OLD OR YOUNGER, THE COMPANY REQUESTS THAT YOU NOT SUBMIT ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THE SITE OR TO THE COMPANY. If the Company discovers that a child age 13 or younger has signed up on the Site or provided us with personally identifiable information, we will delete that child’s identifiable information from our records.

The Company nonetheless encourages parents to go online with their kids. Here are a few tips to help make a child’s online experience safer:

Use of Cookies: Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to an individual’s computer hard drive for record keeping purposes. Cookies make using our Site easier by, among other things, saving your passwords and preferences for you. These cookies are restricted for use only on our Site, and do not transfer any personal information to any other party. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can, however, reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. Please consult the technical information relevant to your browser for instructions. If you choose to disable your cookies setting or refuse to accept a cookie, some parts of the Site may not function properly or may be considerably slower.

Company also uses the Facebook 'pixel' on Site:

A Facebook pixel is a tiny piece of java script code that we have incorporated into each of our web pages. This piece of code provides a series of functions for transmitting application-specific events and user-defined data to Facebook. We use Facebook pixels to record information about the way visitors use our website. For this reason, each of our web pages contains a pixel. This pixel records information about the user's browser session, which it sends to Facebook, along with a hashed version of the Facebook ID and the URL viewed. Every Facebook user has a unique, device-independent Facebook ID that allows us to address and recognise users across a range of devices using the Facebook social network, so that we can address our visitors for commercial purposes using Facebook ads. The user information will be deleted after 180 days, until the user visits our website again. 'Custom Audience from Your Website‘ respects your privacy. Thus, no personal information about individual visitors to the website will be disclosed to us and we can only advertise to website customer target groups in a targeted way once the customer target group has reached a critical mass. This makes it impossible for us to discover the identity of individual visitors.

For the sake of GDPR clarity, when it comes to Facebook pixels, Facebook is both Data Controller and Data Processor. 

Malware/Spyware/Viruses: Neither the Company nor the Site knowingly permit the use of malware, spyware, viruses, and/or other similar types of software.

Links to External Sites: The Company is not responsible for the content or practices of third party websites that may be linked to the Site. The Company is also not responsible for any information that you might share with such linked websites. You should refer to each website’s respective privacy policy and practices prior to disclosing any information.

Bulletin Boards, Comments and Chat Areas: Guests of the Site are solely responsible for the content of messages they post on the Company’s forums, such as chat rooms, comments and bulletin boards. Users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose personal information (e.g., user name, e-mail address, phone number) on the bulletin boards or in the chat areas, that information can be collected and used by others and may result in unsolicited messages from other people. You are responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these instances. Please take care when using these features. Choice/Opt-Out: The Site may provide you the opportunity to opt-in to receive communications from us at the point where we request information about you. You always have the option of removing your name from any e-mail list in order to discontinue any such future communications. In order to ensure immediate removal from any list, please follow the specific instructions set forth within the communications you receive from the Company which you no longer wish to receive.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

USE OF, SHARING AND TEACHING THE NPA PROCESS

This document outlines the strict rules, boundaries, guidelines and legal matters pertaining to the use of and sharing of the NPA Process and all other works, including but not limited to, documents, online content, voice recordings and guidance tools by Joel Young. The intention is to bring clarity in supporting the sharing and spread of NPA and Non-Personal Awareness with integrity and to clearly identify/outlay the lines between sharing, teaching and practicing NPA with others.

CORE STATEMENTS:

  • The NPA Process and Non-Personal Awareness are © Joel Young | NPA Central
  • You can share the NPA Process (subject to meeting the conditions) but you cannot teach it unless you are a Certified NPA Teacher.
  • You can use the NPA Process with friends, family and clients but you cannot use titles (or imply) that you are an NPA Practitioner/Therapists/Coach etc unless you are a Certified NPA Practitioner having completed the NPA Mastery programme and met the certification criteria. 
  • Any income generated from NPA is subject to conditions, licences and agreements with Joel Young | NPA Central.
  • Liability arising from any use of or sharing of the NPA Process rest solely with you.
  • By using or sharing the NPA Process you are legally agreeing to these terms.

SHARING THE NPA PROCESS

You can share the NPA Process (subject to meeting the following conditions):

Any sharing of the NPA Process must be accompanied with the correct copyright statement and a link back to the NPA Website: www.TheNPAacademy.com and/or www.JoelYoungNPA.com.

Ideally, if you are sharing the process you would actively encourage people to come to the NPA Website and get training directly from the source (www.TheNPAacademy.com).

If you are sharing in a video/audio, you must ensure that the link back URL’s are mentioned and written in the description. Wherever possible links should be live/clickable. For example, use the link in the YouTube description or Facebook Live description, formatted in a way that it becomes active on publishing. Refer to the link in the video.

You cannot teach the NPA Process unless you are a Certified NPA Teacher

Please note that only Certified Teachers are permitted to TEACH NPA.

The teaching of the NPA Process; claiming to be a teacher of the NPA Process, or implying that you are qualified to teach the NPA Process is strictly forbidden. Certified NPA Teachers have been through extensive training with Joel Young and have a licence along with financial obligations to NPA from their NPA teaching activities.

Sharing vs Teaching

An example of sharing (permitted):

I’d really like to tell you about a process I love; here are my experiences with it, here’s what it did for me/my friends/family/clients. If you would like to experience these kind of results with my help you can visit my appointments page. If you’d like to learn more about the process itself visit www.TheNPAacademy.com or you can download the process for free at https://www.thenpaacademy.com/npa-process-sheet. 

An example of teaching (not permitted):

I’d really like to tell you about a process I love called NPA. I’m going to tell you (teach you) how you can do it for yourself and walk you step by step through the process. Here are my opinions about the best way to do it. 

Putting the NPA Process behind an opt-in

This is strictly forbidden unless you have prior, written consent from Joel Young/NPA (see below):

Please direct people to download the NPA Process via the NPA website: www.TheNPAacademy.com

Direct opt-in page: https://www.thenpaacademy.com/npa-process-sheet.

Getting Permission:

You may seek permission to share NPA in this way. You must gain written permission before doing this. Permission is granted on a case-by-case basis by Joel Young/NPA Central and is at his discretion. Joel Young/NPA’s decision is final. Joel Young/NPA Central reserve the right to revoke permission at any time.

Guidelines for Seeking Permission:

  • Successful applicants will have invested significantly in NPA trainings, such as NPA Mastery.
  • All content (in entirety) which goes out behind the opt-in will be submitted for approval prior to it going live.
  • NPA copyright statements and live links will be included.
  • There will be a clear indication of the level of training you have undergone, including with whom.
  • Preferably there will be encouragement to take up further training via Joel Young/NPA Central programmes (with links).
  • Applicant will disclose their intentions for sharing the NPA Process specifically.
  • To apply, please send an email to [email protected]

USING THE NPA PROCESS

You can use the NPA Process for yourself, with friends, family and clients at your discretion.

Using the NPA Process with Clients:

If you are an existing coach/healer or 1:1 practitioner with an existing practice then you may include NPA in your ‘toolbox’ in service to clients. Joel Young/NPA Central require no remuneration for granting use of the technology in this way, at this time. Note that liability for using NPA in this way rests solely and exclusively with you.

However, you cannot use titles (or imply) that you are an NPA Practitioner/Therapists/Coach etc unless you are a Certified NPA Practitioner, having completed and passed the NPA Practitioner Certification Programme (NPA Mastery).

USING THE NPA PROCESS IN PAID OFFERINGS/PROGRAMMES

Making money from NPA via paid programmes and offerings without prior written approval/agreement infringes copyright laws and will be subject to legal action. The only exception to this is when using NPA in a paid one-to-one setting, subject to the conditions above.

Licences, remuneration agreements and permissions may be granted in some cases. Please note that you cannot teach NPA unless you are a Certified NPA Teacher, having completed the NPA Teacher Training and continuing to meet the ongoing criteria.

Where permission is generally granted:

If you have a paid programme that has a list of recommended tools/resources and you wish to include NPA, then as long as you adhere to the sharing conditions and follow the opt-in guidelines, then permission is generally given.

Paid offerings/programmes based around (or leading with) NPA:

This requires prior written consent and will be subject to licensing and financial remuneration agreements being in place. Consent is at the discretion of Joel Young/NPA Central.

Examples:

  • NPA for X (manifestation/emotional issue etc)
  • NPA Support Group/Membership

Please note that this is not predicated entirely on the programme/offering name but the intention and actual use of NPA in these settings. So, a programme named ‘Manifesting Your Dreams’ which uses NPA as the core transformation tool/approach falls under these conditions of use, even though it does not use NPA in the name.

Please note: Any liability arising from any use of or sharing of the NPA Process is entirely and solely your responsibility.

OTHER NPA TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGIES

These same conditions apply to all additional NPA and related technologies including NPA Frames™, NPA Frame Anatomy™ (aspects of NPA Frames) and other tools. 

USE OF NPA LOGO AND BRANDING

The NPA logo and all associated branding is strictly the copyright of Joel Young/NPA Central.

Permission to use the logo is given under the following conditions only:

  • Where distinct prior written permission has been granted by Joel Young/NPA Central e.g., Certified NPA Practitioners, radio shows and all other promotional items relating to speaking functions/events, etc.
  • The NPA logo can be used when sharing NPA, so long as the logo image is linked back to the NPA Website and follows your general branding – distinction should be made and obvious so as not to imply a direct communication from NPA).
  • All sharing conditions are met.

You strictly cannot:

  • Imply affiliation with Joel Young/NPA Central without prior written consent.
  • Brand any materials as NPA – you must use your own personal branding and then include the NPA logo beneath your branding in order to keep the distinction.

NON-PERSONAL AWARENESS

‘Non-Personal Awareness’ is copyright Joel Young/NPA Central.

Sharing and use of Non-Personal Awareness beyond the NPA Process, including the philosophies, underlying technologies, NPA Frames etc is strictly by prior written consent only.

The term ‘Non-Personal Awareness’ itself may be used in accordance with the sharing guidelines for the NPA Process.
