IMPORTANT NOTICE (READ FIRST):
These Terms contain a binding arbitration agreement and a class action waiver in Section 12. By registering, you agree to resolve disputes individually through arbitration and to waive any jury or class action.
Scope: These Terms and Conditions govern all training courses provided by Tactical Tradecraft Solutions, LLC (doing business as Interdiction Academy, Interdiction Academy 2.0, Deception Behavioral Detection, and Deception Behavioral Detection 2.0, hereafter “the Company,” “we,” or “us”). By registering for or attending any Company training (in-person, live online, or on-demand), you (“Participant”) agree to these Terms. These Terms apply equally to all formats (including eligibility, payments, cancellations/refunds, chargebacks, certificates, use of materials, and conduct).
Law Enforcement Only. Training is open to active-duty sworn law enforcement officers or active government law enforcement agents unless pre-approved in writing by the Company. No civilians, private individuals, or international attendees without written approval. We may verify employment/credentials and may refuse or cancel (with full refund)any registration that does not meet eligibility.
Identification Required. You must present valid government-issued LE credentials at class start. If you cannot demonstrate active status upon request, entry may be denied. We may, at our discretion, allow a brief verification period or reschedule.
Personal/Off-Duty Attendance. Officers may register in a personal capacity. Agency details may be collected for verification; if you register/pay personally, we will not contact your agency/supervisor without your consent, except as needed for verification or as required by law.
Registration Confirmation. Registration is confirmed only upon receipt of a completed registration and: (a) full payment; or (b) a valid agency purchase order (PO) accepted by the Company.
Payment Deadline. Payment or accepted PO is due at least 7 calendar days before class. Registrations not meeting this by the deadline will not be admitted.
Late Registrations (<7 days). If you register within 7 days of class, payment (or an accepted PO) is due immediately at registration; otherwise, attendance may be denied.
Payment Methods. We accept credit cards, department/company checks, and approved agency POs. All fees are in USD.
Purchase Orders / Net 30. Agencies paying by PO must provide a signed PO no later than 7 days before class. Invoices are Net 30 from invoice date. Past-due balances accrue 1.5% per month (18% annually) or the legal maximum, whichever is lower, beginning day 31; interest compounds monthly.
Checks. Checks must be received by the Company ≥7 days before class and dated no later than the first class day. Returned checks: $50 plus bank charges.
Late or Non-Payment. Failure to provide full payment or a valid PO on time results in removal from the roster and denial of access. We may cancel future registrations and withhold certificates until paid.
Agency & Participant Responsibility (Joint/Several). If an agency pays by PO/invoice, both the agency and the Participant are jointly and severally responsible for tuition. By registering, Participant acknowledges personal responsibility for tuition if the agency fails to pay, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Collections & Fees. For unpaid invoices, we may pursue collection or legal action. The prevailing party in any collection action is entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection agency fees.
How to Cancel. Submit written cancellation via our Cancellation Form or email. The date we receive your notice governs refund eligibility.

No Recording / Redistribution. Recording (audio/video/screen-capture) or redistribution of content/materials is prohibited without prior written approval. Materials are for your personal professional development and your internal agency reference only.
Confidentiality of Techniques. Do not disclose sensitive techniques to unauthorized persons. Sharing general knowledge with fellow officers for immediate operational needs is permitted; teaching Company content to others or distributing course documents is prohibited without written approval.

These Terms apply equally to in-person, virtual/online, and on-demand training.
Certificates are issued upon successful completion and once payment is received or a valid PO is on file. We may withhold or revoke certificates for non-payment, misconduct, or failure to meet requirements. Duplicate certificates require identity verification and may incur a processing fee.
If a certificate is revoked (e.g., non-payment), the Company may notify the participant’s employer or relevant credentialing body as appropriate.

This license does not permit broad reproduction, department-wide distribution, or creation of derivative training.

Enforcement. Unauthorized use or disclosure may result in denial of future registrations, certificate revocation, and legal action (including injunctive relief, damages, and attorneys’ fees). The Company may seek immediate court injunctions to protect IP/confidential information.
Contact Us First. If you have a billing or service concern, you agree to notify us in writing and allow 10 business daysto resolve before initiating any payment dispute with a bank or processor.
Card Disputes. You agree not to initiate a chargeback except in cases of confirmed fraud or duplicate charge. Initiating a chargeback contrary to these Terms is a breach. If a chargeback is filed without following the notice process, you are responsible for resulting chargeback fees, bank penalties/fines, and any losses we incur, and the prevailing party may recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
All Payment Forms. This section applies to all payment methods (credit cards, POs, checks) and worldwide.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company is not liable for injuries or losses except to the extent caused by the Company’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Liability Cap. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the course giving rise to the claim, except where prohibited by law.
Indemnification. Participants (and their agencies, to the extent permitted by law) agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company from third-party claims, losses, and liabilities arising from the Participant’s negligent, reckless, or intentional misconduct during training.
The Company is not liable for delay or failure to perform due to events beyond its reasonable control (including acts of God, public health emergencies, government actions, labor disputes, power/Internet failures, venue closures). We may cancel or reschedule affected training; Section 3 (Company Cancellations) applies.
Agreement to Terms. Registering or attending constitutes acceptance of these Terms. We recommend saving a copy.
Severability. If any provision is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect. If the class action waiver in Section 12 is found unenforceable, any affected claim may proceed only on an individual, non-class basis in court.
No Waiver. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of that provision.
Governing Law & Venue. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Mexico. Except where arbitration applies, the parties agree to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts located in Rio Rancho, Sandoval County, New Mexico.
Entire Agreement. These Terms (together with any registration confirmation/invoice/PO accepted by the Company) constitute the entire agreement, superseding all prior or contemporaneous understandings regarding the training. No oral statements modify these Terms.
Updates. We may update these Terms on our website. The version effective as of your registration governs that course.
Agreement to Arbitrate. You and the Company agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the training (“Dispute”) shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration, not in court, and not before a jury (except as allowed below).
Governing Law; FAA. The Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) governs this Section’s enforceability and interpretation. New Mexico law applies to the substance of claims.
Forum & Rules. Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules (or Consumer Rules, if applicable). A single arbitrator will conduct the arbitration in Rio Rancho, Sandoval County, New Mexico, unless the parties agree otherwise or the arbitrator permits a virtual hearing.
Costs. Each party pays its own attorneys’ fees. The Company will pay AAA administrative/arbitrator fees to the extent they exceed the court filing fee you would have paid to file suit in court.
Small Claims Exception. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court in New Mexico for disputes within that court’s jurisdiction.
Class/Representative Action Waiver. All Disputes must be brought in an individual capacity only. No class, collective, consolidated, or representative actions are permitted. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims of multiple persons or preside over any class/representative proceeding.
IP Injunctive Relief Carve-Out. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to protect intellectual property or confidential information.
Opt-Out Right. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days after first accepting these Terms by sending written notice (name, mailing address, statement opting out) to the address in Section 13. Opt-out does not affect other Terms.
Severability. If any part of this Section is found unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect to the fullest extent permitted. If the class waiver is limited or invalidated as to a particular claim, then such claim (and only that claim) shall proceed in court, on an individual basis only.
