Terms & Conditions

Last Updated: September 1, 2026


These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the Caroline MacPhail website and your engagement with Caroline MacPhail for executive coaching, mentoring, and related services.

By using this website or purchasing a service, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.


1. Services

Caroline MacPhail provides one-to-one Executive Coaching and mentoring services for senior commercial leaders.

Services are designed to provide professional coaching, reflection, guidance, accountability, and practical support. Coaching and mentoring are not a substitute for legal, financial, medical, psychological, or other professional advice.


2. Discovery Calls

The Executive Coaching Discovery Call is an initial conversation to understand your circumstances, goals, and whether coaching is appropriate for you.


A Discovery Call does not create an obligation to purchase coaching services.

Caroline reserves the right to determine whether her services are suitable for an individual's circumstances.


3. Coaching Engagements

The scope, duration, fees, and inclusions of a coaching engagement will be agreed between Caroline and the client before coaching begins.


Coaching is a collaborative process. Results depend on the client's participation, decisions, actions, and circumstances. Caroline does not guarantee any particular personal, professional, career, or business outcome.


4. Mentoring Calls

Mentoring sessions are designed around a specific leadership, career, or professional challenge.

The mentoring service provides an experienced perspective and practical guidance. The client remains responsible for their own decisions and actions.


5. Fees and Payment

All fees are stated in Australian dollars (AUD), unless otherwise specified.

The applicable fee and payment arrangements will be confirmed before the coaching engagement or mentoring session begins.


Payment plans may be available where offered and agreed in advance.

For organisation-sponsored coaching, the organisation may be responsible for payment in accordance with the agreed arrangement.


6. Cancellations and Rescheduling

If you need to cancel or reschedule a coaching or mentoring session, reasonable notice is requested.

Where possible, sessions should be rescheduled rather than cancelled.


Any cancellation or refund terms that apply to a specific coaching programme or mentoring service will be communicated before payment.


7. Confidentiality

Confidentiality is an important part of the coaching relationship.


Information shared during coaching or mentoring conversations will be treated as confidential, except where disclosure is required or permitted by law or where there is another legitimate reason to disclose information.


For organisation-sponsored coaching, any agreed reporting or feedback arrangements will be discussed with the client before coaching begins.


8. Intellectual Property

All content provided through the website, coaching programmes, resources, worksheets, guides, and other materials is owned by or licensed to Caroline MacPhail unless otherwise stated.


Materials are provided for the client's personal use and may not be copied, reproduced, distributed, published, or commercially used without prior written permission.


9. Website Content

The information provided on this website is intended for general informational purposes.


While reasonable care is taken to ensure information is accurate and current, Caroline does not guarantee that all website content will always be complete, accurate, or up to date.


10. Third-Party Services and Links

The website may use or link to third-party platforms, including booking, payment, email, analytics, and other technology providers.


Caroline is not responsible for the availability, content, security, or privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

Your use of third-party services may be subject to their own terms and conditions.


11. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, Caroline MacPhail will not be liable for any loss, damage, or outcome arising from decisions or actions taken by a client based on coaching, mentoring, website content, or other information provided.


Nothing in these Terms & Conditions excludes or limits any rights or guarantees that cannot legally be excluded under applicable Australian law.


12. Australian Consumer Law

Nothing in these Terms & Conditions is intended to exclude, restrict, or modify any rights or remedies you may have under the Australian Consumer Law or other applicable legislation.


Where Australian Consumer Law applies, those rights remain unaffected.


13. Privacy

Your personal information will be handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy available on this website.


14. Changes to These Terms

Caroline MacPhail may update these Terms & Conditions from time to time.

The updated version will be published on this website and will apply from the date it is posted.
