3. SERVICES
3.1 Description.
For each package of Services and related Materials that Indian Palm Leaf Reading ® Institute makes available to its Customers, Indian Palm Leaf Reading ® Institute has prepared and published a specification (each a “Service Description”). The Service Descriptions are provided below:
Our service is comprised of several stages:
Waiting List: Through your payment of $100, you have secured your spot on the waiting list.
Next-in-Line List: By submitting your readable thumb impressions, you have been moved up to our next-in-line list. This is a holding area for everyone who has paid the $100 for the search for bundles and submitted readable impressions. At this point, you do not need to take any further action apart from practicing patience. Based on current estimates, you may remain on this list for anywhere from 4 to 24 months. This is just an estimation—it may be faster, but it may also take longer.
Active List: As capacity frees up, we will notify you and move you from the next-in-line list to our active list. This means that we will begin the search for your bundles. The search for bundles is a physical process in which the reader must visit libraries and archives to locate bundles that match your thumb impression category. There are no computers or registries involved—this is hands-on work requiring visits to multiple libraries, sometimes dozens. The current estimated search time is between 3 to 5 months, though it may be faster or take longer depending on circumstances beyond our control.
Matching and Reading: Once bundles have been located for you, we will notify you. At this stage, the $100 payment you originally made becomes non-refundable. You will then have the option to proceed by paying the remaining balance of $400 for your matching and reading, after which you can schedule your appointment. You have 2 months to complete the payment and schedule your reading. If you do not pay within this timeframe, the bundles must be returned to the archive. If you later decide to retrieve the bundles, you will need to pay $100 again for their retrieval—if they can be retrieved at all. If they are no longer retrievable, you will need to restart the entire process, including payment for the search and submission of new impressions.
Reading Session: Upon receipt of your final payment, we will schedule a time and date for your reading. Readings are conducted via video and audio sessions and may last up to four (4) hours using Zoom or another platform of our choosing. The session will include the reader, an interpreter, and one of our moderators. If you do not attend the scheduled reading, we may cancel your session, in which case administrative fees may be deducted from any refund you receive, at our sole and exclusive discretion. A stable internet connection is required for the reading. We strongly recommend using a reliable high-speed broadband connection rather than a cellular or wireless network. If the session is interrupted due to an unreliable connection, as determined at our sole discretion, the reading may be suspended or terminated without a refund.
Approximately two (2) weeks after the reading, you will receive a link to a recording of your session. This link will remain active for thirty (30) days from the date it is sent. If the reader is unable to locate your specific palm leaf within the bundles found for you during the matching process, you may choose to continue the search or apply for a refund of the $400 reading fee.
Rescheduling and Cancellation of Appointments: We require at least forty-eight (48) hours’ notice to reschedule or cancel any appointments. Failure to provide sufficient notice may result in the cancellation of your order without a refund, or a rescheduling fee of $100 will apply.
3.2 Changes to Services & Materials.
We may modify our Services, Service Descriptions, and Materials from time to time. Please refer to the Site for our most current offerings. Indian Palm Leaf Reading ® Institute may also send an email notice of the change to its affected Customers.
