Clear rules.
Calmer building.

01 · FIRST BUILD REFUND POLICY

Try the path. Keep the decision simple.

First Build is a digital, self-paced program sold to a parent or legal guardian for one household. It includes the materials stated on the checkout page at the time of purchase.

Fourteen-day satisfaction window

If First Build is not a fit, the purchasing parent may request a full refund within 14 calendar days of purchase. Email bud@budjohnson.com from the checkout email address with the order number. We do not require a reason.

After 14 days, First Build purchases are final because the household has received access to digital materials. Refunds may be limited to one First Build purchase per household. If a duplicate charge or technical access error occurs, contact us promptly so we can make it right.

02 · BUILD YEAR CANCELLATION AND RENEWAL

Twelve months starts when your household starts.

Build Year is a twelve-month household membership. Its term begins on the published or assigned start date shown at checkout and ends twelve consecutive months later. It is not tied to a January-to-December calendar year, and we do not prorate partial months.

Founding and first-year enrollment

Unless the checkout page explicitly says otherwise, a Build Year purchase is a one-time payment for a twelve-month term. It does not renew automatically during the founding offer. The price, included benefits, and start date displayed at checkout control that enrollment.

Future renewals and cancellation

If automatic renewal is offered in a future enrollment, the checkout page will clearly state the renewal price, billing frequency, and cancellation method before purchase. A parent may cancel a future renewal before the next charge. Cancellation stops the next renewal and does not shorten the already-paid term. No prorated refund is provided for unused time after access has begun, except where required by law or where we make a mistake.

For a newly purchased Build Year membership, the same 14-day satisfaction window applies. Request it by email from the checkout address with the order number.

03 · PARENT APPROVAL AND TEEN SAFETY

One parent-owned account. Clear permission points.

A parent or legal guardian purchases and manages the household account. The program is designed for teens roughly 12 to 18. The parent decides whether it fits their teen and remains responsible for supervision, household rules, and compliance with any third-party tool’s terms.

Approval is required before

• Creating an account with a third-party tool or service
• Entering payment information or making a purchase
• Publishing a project, sending it to strangers, or sharing it publicly
• Sharing a name, school, address, phone number, exact location, login, health detail, or other private information
• Uploading a teen’s photo, voice, video, or identifying work for public use

What Homegrown Builders is not

Homegrown Builders is not a school, babysitting service, emergency support line, unrestricted online community, or promise of private tutoring. We do not provide open direct messaging between teens and strangers. Parents should contact emergency services or an appropriate professional for urgent safety, health, legal, or mental-health concerns.

Feedback, projects, and media

We may ask for feedback after a family has completed work. We will not publish a teen’s name, image, voice, project, quote, or identifying details without parent permission. A parent may withdraw future permission by emailing us, although material already shared by an independent third-party platform may be outside our control.

Privacy

Please read the BudJohnson.com privacy notice. Homegrown Builders collects information from the purchasing adult. If we knowingly collect personal information directly from a child under 13, we will seek verifiable parental consent before using or disclosing it, consistent with applicable law.
