My New Dawn Hypnotherapy · Effective: June 2026 · Last updated: August 9, 2026
These terms constitute a legally binding agreement. By booking a session you confirm you have read and agree to these terms in full.
1. Services
My New Dawn Hypnotherapy ("we," "us," "Dawn") provides private hypnotherapy sessions delivered by video conference. The core service is Your New Dawn — a 90-minute one-on-one hypnotherapy session held in Dawn's private Zoom room, which you enter through the unique session link sent to you before your appointment.
Optional add-ons include a copy of your session audio and personalized hypnosis audio, subject to availability and current promotional terms.
2. Not a Medical or Mental Health Service
Hypnotherapy is a complementary wellness service. It is not a substitute for medical treatment, psychotherapy, psychiatric care, or any licensed mental health service. Dawn is a certified hypnotherapist, not a licensed physician, psychologist, or therapist.
By booking, you confirm that you are not seeking and will not use hypnotherapy as a replacement for professional medical or psychological care. If you are currently under the care of a medical or mental health professional, you agree to inform them of your intent to pursue hypnotherapy.
3. Who Can Book
If you are 18 or older, you may book a session for yourself.
A session for anyone under 18 is booked by that child's parent or legal guardian. By booking for a child, you confirm that you are their parent or legal guardian, that you consent to the session on their behalf, that you will provide their intake information, and that you have agreed with Dawn who will be present for the session.
Sessions are not appropriate for individuals with psychosis, schizophrenia, epilepsy, or certain other conditions. You represent that none of these conditions applies to you or, where you are booking for a child, to that child.
You need a stable internet connection, a device with camera and microphone, and a private, quiet space for the session.
4. Payment
Payment is collected at the time of booking through Calendly's secure checkout, powered by Stripe. Where a package, an add-on, or a session is arranged directly with Dawn, she may instead send you a Stripe invoice payable online. All prices are listed in US dollars, and payment is required in full before your session is confirmed unless the invoice states otherwise.
By providing payment information, you authorize us to charge the total amount selected at checkout, including any optional add-ons chosen during booking.
5. Cancellation and Rescheduling
You may reschedule your session up to 24 hours before your scheduled start time at no charge using the reschedule link provided in your confirmation email.
Cancellations made more than 24 hours before the session will receive a full credit toward a future session. Cancellations made within 24 hours of the session are non-refundable. No-shows are non-refundable.
We reserve the right to cancel or reschedule sessions due to illness, emergency, or technical failure. In such cases you will receive a full refund or priority rebooking at your preference.
6. Recording, Transcripts and Session Records
Your session is recorded and transcribed as part of how the practice works, and by booking you consent to this. Two things happen:
A written transcript. While you are in the session room, what is spoken is converted to text and saved to your confidential client record. This happens in every session.
Session audio. Dawn may also record the session audio. It is stored in encrypted storage and transcribed automatically.
These records exist so that Dawn can prepare your script, your session materials, and the plan for your next session. They are held under the Privacy Policy, are never used for marketing, and are never published.
If you would prefer your session not to be recorded, tell Dawn before it begins and she will arrange that with you.
If you have selected the session audio add-on, a copy is delivered to your email address within 48 hours.
You may not record any session yourself without prior written consent from Dawn.
7. Personalized Hypnosis Audio and Scripts
If you have selected the Personalized Hypnosis Audio add-on, a custom audio file is created from your session content and delivered within 48 hours. This audio is for your personal use only and may not be shared, redistributed, or used commercially.
Your personalized script and audio are prepared by Dawn using AI-assisted tools that work from your session content. Section 4 of the Privacy Policy names the providers involved and what each one receives.
8. Informed Consent for Hypnotherapy
By booking a session, you acknowledge that:
Hypnotherapy involves entering a focused, relaxed state of awareness. You remain conscious and in control at all times.
Results are not guaranteed. Individual outcomes vary.
You are participating voluntarily and may end the session at any time.
You will complete the pre-session intake form honestly and fully before your session.
Your session is recorded and transcribed as described in Section 6, and your session content is processed by the service providers named in Section 4 of the Privacy Policy.
Where you are booking for a child, you give this consent as their parent or legal guardian, on their behalf as well as your own.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, My New Dawn Hypnotherapy shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of our services. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount paid for your session.
10. Intellectual Property
All content on mynewdawn.life — including text, design, scripts, techniques, and audio materials — is the intellectual property of My New Dawn Hypnotherapy. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without written permission.
11. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Orange County, California.
12. Changes to Terms
We may update these terms at any time. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. The effective date at the top of this document reflects the most recent revision.
13. SMS Messaging
If you provide a mobile number and opt in, we send appointment confirmations, reminders, and service replies. Text messages are sent through Twilio, our messaging provider. Message frequency varies; message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. We do not sell, rent, or share mobile numbers or SMS consent with third parties for marketing. SMS is not encrypted, so we never include clinical or session content in text messages — only scheduling and portal notifications.

Privacy Policy
My New Dawn Hypnotherapy · Effective: June 2026 · Last updated: August 9, 2026
Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what we collect, why, and how it is protected.
1. Who We Are
My New Dawn Hypnotherapy is operated by Dawn, a certified hypnotherapist offering private sessions globally via mynewdawn.life. For privacy inquiries: dawn@mynewdawn.life
2. Information We Collect
Information you provide:
Name and email address (collected at booking via Calendly)
Payment information (processed by Stripe — we never see or store your card details)
Your mobile number, and your SMS consent if you give it
Pre-session intake form responses (health background, goals, personal history)
Where you book for a child: that child's name and age, and the information you provide about them
Information created during your session:
A written transcript of your session
Session audio, where it is recorded
Dawn's session notes and clinical notes
Messages you send through your client portal
Information collected automatically:
Basic usage data (pages visited, time on site) via standard server logs
Device and browser type for technical compatibility
3. How We Use Your Information
To confirm and manage your booking
To prepare and deliver your session
To send session confirmations, reminders, and follow-up communications
To deliver audio recordings or personalized audio files
To comply with applicable legal obligations
We do not use your information for advertising. We do not sell your data. Ever.
4. Service Providers
Running the practice means a small number of specialist providers handle part of your information. Each one receives only what it needs, and only to deliver its part of the service:
Calendly — scheduling and booking. Receives your name, email and appointment details. calendly.com/privacy
Stripe — payment processing. Receives your name, email and payment details. stripe.com/privacy
Zoom — the video platform your session runs on. Receives your session video and audio, and your first name as it appears in the room. zoom.com/trust/privacy
Deepgram — speech-to-text. Receives your session audio and returns the transcript. We have opted out of Deepgram's model-improvement programme, so your audio is held only for as long as it takes to produce the transcript and is not used to train their systems. deepgram.com/privacy
Anthropic — the AI provider whose model Dawn uses to draft your script and session materials. Receives your session content: transcript, intake answers and session Q&A. anthropic.com/legal/privacy
Supabase — the encrypted database and file storage where all of the above is kept. supabase.com/privacy
Twilio — text messaging, if you opt in. Receives your mobile number and the message text. twilio.com/legal/privacy
Resend — email delivery. Receives your email address and the message. resend.com/legal/privacy
Vercel — website and application hosting. vercel.com/legal/privacy
Each provider operates under its own privacy policy and security standards. None of them is a client, a partner, or an advertiser — they are the tools the practice runs on.
On AI specifically: session content sent to Anthropic is processed under Anthropic's commercial API terms. Anthropic states that inputs and outputs from its commercial API are not used to train its models by default, and that they are deleted from its systems within 30 days.
5. Sensitive Health Information
Your intake form, your session transcript, your session audio and Dawn's notes contain sensitive personal and health-related information. This information is used solely to prepare and deliver your sessions and your materials. It is stored in encrypted form.
It is never sold, and it is never given to anyone outside the service providers listed in Section 4, each of which handles only the part described there in order to run the service. It is not used for advertising, not used for research, and not shared with any other client, practitioner, or organisation.
None of it is used to train anyone's AI systems.
6. Data Retention
Booking and payment records are retained for 7 years as required by applicable tax and business regulations. Intake responses, session transcripts, session audio, session notes and clinical notes are retained for 3 years and then securely deleted. You may request earlier deletion by contacting us.
7. Your Rights (California Residents — CCPA)
If you are a California resident, you have the right to:
Know what personal information we collect and how it is used
Request deletion of your personal information
Opt out of the sale of your personal information (we do not sell data)
Non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights
To exercise any of these rights, contact dawn@mynewdawn.life. We will respond within 45 days.
8. International Users
We serve clients globally, including across North and South America. If you are located outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States. By using our services, you consent to this transfer.
9. Security
All data is transmitted over encrypted connections (SSL/TLS). Payment data is handled entirely by Stripe and is never stored on our servers. Session transcripts, audio and notes are stored in encrypted storage, and portal messages are encrypted before they are stored.
Sessions run on Zoom's encrypted platform. Zoom encrypts meeting traffic in transit. Because the session opens in your browser and uses live captions, Zoom's optional end-to-end encryption mode is not in use — Zoom's servers relay the meeting.
10. Cookies
Our website uses minimal cookies necessary for functionality. We do not use tracking or advertising cookies. Third-party services (Calendly, Stripe) may set their own cookies when you interact with their embedded tools, subject to their respective privacy policies.
11. Children and Young People
We offer sessions for children and young people from age 3. Where the client is under 18:
the booking is made by that child's parent or legal guardian, who agrees to the Terms and consents to the session on the child's behalf;
the parent or legal guardian provides the intake information about the child, and agrees with Dawn who will be present for the session;
everything in this policy — how the information is used, how long it is kept, how it is protected — applies to that child's information in the same way;
the parent or legal guardian can ask us at any time to show, correct, or delete what we hold about their child.
We do not knowingly collect information directly from a child through this website. Where a session is booked for a child, what we hold about them comes from their parent or legal guardian and from the session itself.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy periodically. We will notify you of material changes via email or a notice on our website. The effective date reflects the most recent update.
13. SMS Messaging
If you provide a mobile number and opt in, we send appointment confirmations, reminders, and service replies. Text messages are sent through Twilio, our messaging provider. Message frequency varies; message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. We do not sell, rent, or share mobile numbers or SMS consent with third parties for marketing. SMS is not encrypted, so we never include clinical or session content in text messages — only scheduling and portal notifications.
