These credentials and related content are considered proprietary information and are protected under applicable intellectual property laws. Unauthorized sharing or distribution constitutes a violation of these Terms and Conditions and may result in suspension or termination of your access, as well as potential legal action.
•   When logging in, you must use your first name or a pre-approved, school-appropriate nickname submitted to buenoanimaltraining@gmail.com at least two (2) hours prior to the scheduled meeting. Participants using unrecognized or unapproved names will not be admitted into the virtual meeting room. To protect student privacy and our intellectual property rights, accounts with unauthorized names may be permanently blocked without the possibility of reversal.
• All of your virtual meetings are recorded for the safety of staff and students. If a parent or guardian does not want recorded content of their minor to be used for promotional or advertising purposes, they may email BuenoAnimalTraining@gmail.com to request that their student’s image and video remain private. We will honor all such requests. Unless Bueno Animal Training receives a written request, enrollment serves as consent for your minor or student’s image and recorded video to be used by Bueno Animal Training, on our site, and in advertising materials.
• Recorded lessons are provided exclusively to the enrolled student and their parent or guardian for personal educational review and reflection. These recordings may not be shared, distributed, reproduced, or made accessible to any individual who did not purchase the corresponding lesson. All recorded content is the intellectual property of Bueno Animal Training and is protected under applicable copyright laws.
• Preparation & Technology Requirements: Virtual lessons will begin and end at their scheduled time. Please ensure all electronic devices are fully prepared prior to the session, including but not limited to: 
  • • A camera-enabled device (computer, phone, or tablet) set up on a stable surface to allow full view of the area (arena, pen, yard, stanchion, chute, scale, etc.) that you are working in with full view of your animal.
    • A stable internet or hotspot connection.
    • Functioning audio (Bluetooth headphones with a microphone).
    • Fully charged batteries for all devices. 
    • Testing, preparing, and setting up these components before your session helps prevent delays and ensures a smooth learning experience.
    • Set up any needed supplies in your workspace prior to the lesson.

• Dress Code & Safety Guidelines: As your coach, my goal is to prepare you for a successful and safe experience working with animals. Wearing proper attire is essential for your safety and for ensuring your animal has a positive training experience. Students, please have the following industry-standard clothing and gear ready before your practice, and wear it during your session:
  • • Check the weather before our meeting. If conditions such as rain, extreme wind, heat, or cold make training unsafe for you or your animal, please review our Reschedule Policy to set a new time.
    • Jeans that fit well and do not drag on the ground to prevent slipping or snagging on equipment or your animal. Jeans should be free of holes, frays, or tears.
    • A belt to keep jeans secure while handling your animal.
    • Comfortable socks (longer, thicker work socks are recommended to prevent rubbing inside boots).
    • Leather boots with thick, treaded rubber soles for stability. If your boots have steel or metal toe caps, they should withstand at least 50 pounds more than your animal’s target goal weight. It’s recommended that you break your boots in prior to practice by wearing them.
    • A shirt that fully covers your torso. Short sleeves and tank tops are okay as long as weather conditions, animal behavior, and workspace safety are considered.
    • A baseball-style hat (optional but recommended) to block the sun.
    • Hair tie for your students with long hair to prevent accidental pulling.
    • Leather work gloves (optional but recommended) when introducing your animal to its halter.
    • If the weather is cold, but still safe for you and your animal please wear 5-finger gloves, winter jacket, layered sweatshirts, warm hat, face mask (optional), thermals or snow pants. DO NOT wear scarves, as they can get caught and pose a safety hazard. 
    • Students and anyone else present in the workspace must avoid wearing items that dangle, make noise (such as lanyards with keys), or are easily blown by wind, as these can distract or startle your animal.
    • You will prepare your workspace before the virtual lesson with Bueno Animal Training staff to create a calm, safe training environment. Remove or secure anything that might scare your animal, including but not limited to: unsecured tarps, trash bins, wheelbarrows, garbage, loose bags, wires, chains, unsecured shelves, heavily contrasting shaded areas, windchimes, etc. If you need help setting your area up, please reach out to your instructor at least 48 hours before the lesson or it will take additional time for your instructor to explain it during the live virtual lesson to ensure student safety.
    • Only the animal(s) you registered for the lesson should be present during training. All other animals (dogs, chickens, ducks, cats, livestock, etc.) must be secured before class begins.
    • If you are working with a single animal, multiple animals, or in a group, your instructor will provide a lesson plan in advance explaining how animals should be secured (e.g., haltered, in their pen, in an arena, or held by the student) based on your space and lesson goals.

These guidelines help create a safe and professional training environment while protecting both you and your animal.

• Late Policy: If you anticipate being late for a lesson, you must notify us at least 24 hours in advance by emailing BuenoAnimalTraining@gmail.com. Lessons will not be extended for tardiness unless there is a documented medical or family emergency.
• Reschedule Policy: If you are unable to attend your scheduled session, you must notify us at least 24 hours in advance by emailing BuenoAnimalTraining@gmail.com and then request to reschedule within 3 calendar days of the missed lesson by emailing BuenoAnimalTraining@gmail.com for an extension if needed. Requests after this period will not be honored, and the payment for the original session will be forfeited.
• Refund Policy: Refunds are not provided for your missed or late sessions unless the Late Policy or Reschedule Policy is followed.
