# Terms of Service
*Last updated: 16 August 2026*
Welcome to globalforgivenessinitiative.com (the “Site”), operated by Global Forgiveness Initiative (“GFI,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO). By using the Site, downloading our free ebook, or otherwise accessing our content, you agree to these Terms of Service.
## Who We Are
GFI is a charity dedicated to spreading a simple, effective forgiveness method — *The GFI 4 Steps to Forgiveness* — as widely as possible, free of charge, regardless of a reader’s background, country, or culture.
## Use of Our Content
Our ebooks, articles, and worksheets are made available for your personal, non-commercial use. You are welcome to read, download, and share them for your own benefit and to help others. You may not resell, republish, or claim authorship of GFI’s content without our prior written permission.
Some GFI content may also be available for purchase in print format. Where this is the case, that purchase covers a physical copy of the book and the cost of producing and delivering it — it does not transfer ownership or resale rights in the underlying content.
## Not Professional Advice
The content on this Site, including *The GFI 4 Steps to Forgiveness* and all related material, is offered for general educational and self-help purposes only. It is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, or therapeutic advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, or if your anxiety, depression, grief, or any other difficulty feels severe or does not improve, please seek support from a qualified doctor or therapist. In an emergency, please contact your local emergency services.
## Donations
GFI is a registered charity, and any donations made through the Site go towards supporting our charitable purpose of making forgiveness resources freely available worldwide. Donations are voluntary and, except as required by law, are non-refundable.

## No Warranty
The Site and its content are provided “as is,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. While we do our best to keep our content accurate and helpful, we cannot guarantee that it will meet your particular needs or produce any particular outcome.
