The Service allows you to post, link, share, and otherwise make available certain information, text, graphics, or other content (“User Content”). Your User Content remains yours and you are solely responsible for such User Content, including its legality, reliability, and appropriateness. You agree that any User Content that you post does not and will not violate third-party rights of any kind, including, without limitation, any intellectual property rights or rights of privacy. We reserve the right (but not the obligation) to reject and/or remove any User Content that we believe, in our sole discretion, violates this Agreement. You represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights, consents, and permissions to submit to the Service and otherwise disclose, transfer, and use all User Content, including to grant the licenses to User Content herein.

 

By posting or publishing User Content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free right and license (with the right to sublicense) to use, modify, create derivative works of, perform, display, reproduce, and distribute such User Content on and through the Service.

 

  1. Community Standards

  • Contain any material that is defamatory, obscene, indecent, abusive, offensive, harassing, violent, hateful, inflammatory, or otherwise objectionable.
    • Promote sexually explicit or pornographic material, violence, or discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age.
    • Infringe any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other intellectual property or other rights of any other person.
    • Violate the legal rights (including the rights of publicity and privacy) of others or contain any material that could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable laws or regulations or that otherwise may be in conflict with this Agreement and our Privacy Policy.
  • Promote any illegal activity, or advocate, promote, or assist any unlawful act.

 

  1. Third-Party Material

The Service may display, include, or make available third-party content (including, without limitation, images, data, and information), or provide links or access to third-party websites, apps, products, or services (collectively, “Third-Party Material”). Any reliance you place on Third-Party Material is strictly at your own risk. We do not endorse or assume any responsibility for any such Third-Party Material and disclaim all liability arising from any use of or reliance placed on such Third-Party Material by you or any user of the Service. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIRD-PARTY MATERIAL, INCLUDING THEIR ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, VALIDITY, COPYRIGHT COMPLIANCE, LEGALITY, DECENCY, QUALITY, OR ANY OTHER ASPECT THEREOF. WE DO NOT ASSUME AND WILL NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR ANY THIRD-PARTY MATERIAL. THIRD-PARTY MATERIAL AND LINKS THERETO ARE PROVIDED SOLELY AS A CONVENIENCE TO YOU, AND YOU MAY ACCESS AND USE THEM ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK AND SUBJECT TO SUCH THIRD PARTIES’ TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND PRIVACY POLICIES.

 

  1. DMCA

We operate the Service in compliance with 17 U.S.C. §512 and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”). It is our policy to respond to any infringement notices and take appropriate actions under the DMCA and other applicable intellectual property laws. The DMCA requires that all notices of alleged copyright infringement must be in writing. When informing us of an alleged copyright infringement, the complaint must do the following: (i) identify the copyrighted work(s) that allegedly has been infringed; (ii) describe the material that is claimed to be infringing and provide sufficient information to permit us to locate that material; (iii) provide your contact information, including an address, telephone number, and email address; (iv) certify or include a statement that the complainant has a good faith belief that the use of the copyright-protected material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, the owner's agent, or law; (v) certify that the information that you have provided us is accurate; and (vi) include a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or person authorized to act on behalf of the owner. Before the complainant alleges an infringement, complainant should consult copyright materials to confirm that the use is, in fact, infringing. The United States Copyright Office provides basic information, online, at http://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ01.pdf, which can assist one in determining whether an exception or defense, such as fair use, may apply to the use of your copyrighted work. Where it has been clearly established that a user is a repeat offender, we may, in our sole discretion, terminate such user’s Account. If you believe that your copyrighted work is being infringed on the Service, please notify us at the email address at the end of this Agreement.

  1. Payment

Your use of the Service is based on a monthly subscription and is subject to certain recurring fees and other fees and charges, as applicable. All fees, including any applicable taxes and transaction fees, are in U.S. Dollars and payable in advance. We are not responsible for any charges or expenses you incur resulting from charges billed by us in accordance with this Agreement. All fees and other payments related to your Account will be made in accordance with the billing terms in effect when such payment is due or funds are received. By providing a credit card number or other payment method with advance authorization features (such as in-app payments from third parties like Apple or Google), you authorize us to continue charging the payment method for all charges due to us until your Account is settled and your subscription is terminated by either you or us. Any recurring fees will automatically renew at the rates then in effect and are automatically charged to your credit card. We use a third-party payment processor to process payments and you must agree to their terms when entering payment information. By providing your payment information, you agree that we may charge you for all fees when they become due to us without additional notice or consent. We may add new features for additional fees, or amend fees for existing features, at any time in our sole discretion. Any change to our pricing or payment terms shall become effective in the billing cycle following notice of such change to you as provided in this Agreement.

 

We may cancel or reschedule a workshop at any time at our discretion. In the event we cancel a workshop, you will be eligible for a refund through our payment processor. In the event we reschedule a workshop, you may use your previously purchased ticket for the newly rescheduled workshop.

 

You may cancel your Account at any time via the Contact Us tab in the app; however, payments are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. Following any cancellation, however, your subscription will be valid until your paid period is complete.

  1. Dispute Resolution

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH US AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

 

The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time such informal dispute resolution is pursued, then either party may initiate binding arbitration. Except as expressly set forth herein, any dispute, claim, or controversy (each, a “Claim”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Consumer Arbitration Rules and the supplementary procedures for consumer related disputes of the AAA, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to any Claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The procedures and rules of the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. shall exclusively govern the interpretation and enforcement of any arbitration. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org/arb_med or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.

 

Each party acknowledges and agrees to waive the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. However, each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court or the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyright, trademark, trade secret, patent, or other intellectual property right. If any court or arbitrator determines that the foregoing class action waiver is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision herein shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

 

In addition to the severability provisions set forth above, in the event that any portion of this arbitration provision is deemed illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed and the remainder of this section shall be given full force and effect. Any Claim or cause of action you may have arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues, otherwise, such cause of action or claim is permanently barred. The parties specifically exclude from application to this Agreement the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act.

 

  1. Term and Termination

This Agreement commences when you first visit or use any feature of the Service and shall continue throughout your subscription period. Your subscription will automatically renew for successive periods of the same length unless you cancel your subscription at least thirty (30) days before such renewal. We may, without prior notice and at our sole discretion, change the Service, stop providing the Service or features of the Service to you or to users generally, or create usage limits for the Service. We may, at our sole discretion, suspend or terminate your access to and use of the Service, immediately and without notice, in the event we have reason to believe you are in violation of this Agreement or have otherwise caused harm to us or another user. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any such termination. Upon any termination, discontinuation, or cancellation of the Service or your access thereto, your right to access or use the Service will immediately terminate. All provisions of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive the termination of your access to the Service, including without limitation, provisions regarding ownership, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.

 

Following termination or deactivation of your Account, or if you remove any User Content from the Service, we may keep your User Content for a reasonable period of time for backup, archival, or audit purposes.

 

  1. General

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey , without regard to conflict of law principles. You agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Monmouth County, New Jersey for the purpose of litigating any dispute. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement or your rights herein, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign this Agreement at any time without notice or consent. If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid, you agree that such invalidity will not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Agreement. No waiver by us of any breach or default of this Agreement will constitute a continuing waiver of such breach or default or be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
