AISHITERU

Your Privacy

Two people telling us about their life together deserve to know exactly where it goes.

  1. What We Hold

    Your two names, and how to reach you. Anything you choose to write to us. What you pay and when — handled by our payment provider, so your card details reach them rather than us.

  2. A Couple Is Two People

    Each of you owns your own words. What one of you writes stays with the one who wrote it unless you decide together to share it, and we ask each of you separately rather than treating one answer as two.

  3. How Long We Keep It

    While you are with us, and for seven years afterwards, which is what Australian record keeping asks of a business. Say the word at any time and we will remove what the law lets us remove, and tell you plainly what has to stay and why.

  4. Australia

    We follow the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles. Where you feel we have fallen short, tell us first and we will make it right; the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner is there for you either way.

The Terms

Plain enough to read once and understand.

  1. What It Costs

    In a group of six couples, over eight weeks — $2,800 a couple. The same eight weeks, just the two of you — $6,000 a couple. A practitioner’s licence — $36,000, every two years. Australian dollars, GST included.

  2. When Life Moves

    Dates move, and a wedding can move with them. Tell us as early as you are able and we will find you another date. Where we ever have to change a date ourselves, you choose: another date, or your money back in full.

  3. What Belongs To Whom

    Every word you write and say is yours, and stays yours. The materials, the language and the method belong to AISHITERU, and they are yours to use for your own marriage for as long as you live.

  4. Where This Sits

    Under the law of Victoria, Australia. Anything that goes wrong between us gets a conversation first, always.

Your Safety

This work asks two people to be honest with each other. So it is built to hold you carefully while you are.

If either of you is in danger right now, reach for one of these first.

  1. You Can Step Out

    At any moment, for any reason, with no explanation asked for. Your place stays yours and you come back when you are ready.

  2. What Is Said In The Room

    It stays in the room. Practitioners hold what they hear in confidence, and the exception is the one every profession shares: where somebody is in danger.

  3. Answering Only For Yourself

    Every question here is yours to answer, to change, or to leave. Your partner hears what you choose to tell them and the choosing stays with you.
