Terms
These are the terms for using weinbergcompass.com. They describe what the site is, what it is not, and what you can expect of it. Where something depends on a decision that has not been made, this page says so instead of guessing.
The site is run by Goldene Rendlach Dzjikov LLC, the company behind Weinberg Compass. Using the site means these terms apply to you.
Last reviewed by us on 4 September 2026. It has not been reviewed by a lawyer.
What this site is
It is a place to read. Rabbi Dr. Noam Weinberg’s method is set out on the method page, his writing is in the articles, and there is a newsletter you can join if you want the writing to find you. For people who do this work professionally, the site also describes a certification and takes applications for it.
Reading any of it does not start a coaching relationship, and neither does joining the newsletter or sending us a message. A coaching relationship starts when a coach and a client agree one between themselves, in writing, on terms of their own. Nothing on this site is that agreement or part of it.
What relationship coaching is not
Relationship coaching is not counselling. It is not psychotherapy, and it is not psychoanalysis. It is not mental health care, and it is not substance abuse treatment. Weinberg Compass coaches do not diagnose or treat mental health conditions, and nothing on this site stands in for care from a licensed professional.
If you are in a bad moment, the numbers on the crisis page belong to organisations that do that work around the clock. Weinberg Compass is not a crisis service and does not hold itself out as one.
The credential
Weinberg Compass Certified Relationship Coach is a proprietary credential awarded by Weinberg Compass on completion of its program and satisfaction of its published standard. It is not a license, an accreditation by any external body, or a substitute for clinical training or supervision.
A coach who holds it is responsible for working within the law where they practise. That includes the rules about which professional titles a person may use, which differ from one place to the next and are not ours to set aside. Holding this credential permits nobody to describe themselves as something the law of their own jurisdiction says they are not.
Weinberg Compass certifies coaches. It does not employ them, supervise their work, or stand behind what any individual coach does with a client. When the coach directory opens, a listing on it will say that a person completed the program, and nothing further.
The articles and the newsletter
The articles are general writing about patterns that come up often between people. They are not advice about your situation, because nobody who wrote them knows what your situation is. Some of them appeared first at The Times of Israel and carry a credit line saying so.
The newsletter is the same kind of writing, sent by email. You can leave it from the link at the foot of any letter.
Needs counsel
What rights does Weinberg Compass hold in the pieces that appeared first at The Times of Israel, and is the credit line on those articles sufficient?
Five of the launch articles are reworked from pieces originally published elsewhere under Noam’s byline. Republishing them here is almost certainly fine; nobody has read the terms he agreed to when he published them there.
Nothing is for sale here yet
You cannot buy anything through this site today. The course and certification pages give prices so that somebody deciding whether to apply knows what they are deciding about, but no payment processor is connected and the checkout is closed. Asking the site to start one returns the same answer to everybody: checkout is not open yet.
The certification is joined by applying at /apply and being offered a place. An application is not a purchase, and sending one commits you to nothing. If a place is offered, the terms of paying for it will be agreed with you directly and are not on this site.
The certification page carries a promise about refunds, in these words: “Sit through the first two modules. If the method is not for you, tell me before the third and I refund you in full. No invoice, no awkwardness.” That is a commitment Noam has made, and it stands. It is quoted here so that it is not lost when purchase terms are eventually written.
Needs counsel
What are the purchase, refund, cancellation and subscription terms, and do they agree with the guarantee and the monthly membership line already on the certification page?
These have to exist before anything can be sold, which is Phase 2. Two promises are already published and any drafted terms have to match them rather than override them: the refund guarantee quoted above, and the certification page’s statement that holding the credential costs $99 a month, can be cancelled at any time, and lapses if it is.
Using the site
The writing, the design and the method described here belong to Weinberg Compass and to Noam. Read it, quote a bit of it with a link back, send it to somebody. Do not republish it wholesale as your own, and do not use it to teach the method commercially without having been certified to.
The forms are for reaching a person. Please do not use them to send anything automated or abusive; submissions that look automated are dropped without being read.
What we can and cannot promise about the site
We try to keep the site up, correct and current, and we will fix what we find wrong. We cannot promise it is never unavailable, never out of date, or never mistaken. Links to other people’s sites are there because they are useful; what happens on them is not ours to control.
Needs counsel
What limitation of liability and what disclaimer of warranties belong here, given that the site publishes writing about relationships and certifies coaches who then work with clients unsupervised?
The two exposures worth thinking about separately: a reader who acts on an article, and a client of a certified coach who looks to Weinberg Compass because of the credential. The section above is a description of intent, not a limitation of anything.
Which law applies
Needs counsel
What is the governing law and the venue for disputes?
This follows from the legal entity, which has not been settled. Weinberg Compass is run from Israel; its readers and the first cohort of coaches are largely in the United States; the company named on this site is an LLC. Nothing sensible can be written here until somebody decides where the company actually sits, and picking a jurisdiction to fill the gap would be worse than leaving it visible.
If these terms change
They will, because the site is not finished — purchase terms alone will rewrite a section of this page. The date near the top moves whenever anything here does.
Needs counsel
How does a change to these terms have to be notified, and does continuing to use the site count as accepting the new version?
