If you are under the age of majority in your state or country, you must not use the Services.
2. MEMBERSHIP
a.) Registering; Account: Access to and use of certain functionalities of the Services may require you to register for a Community membership (“Membership”) and/or account (“Account”) with us. If you register and are approved for an Account, you will become a Community member (“Member”). You will, if applicable, create a user ID and password to access your Account. You agree to provide us with accurate, complete, and current information about yourself during Account registration and at all other times, and you agree to update all information provided to us or requested by us if, and as soon as, such information changes and before you make any purchase related to the Services. You agree to keep your log-in information confidential and to not authorize any third party to use your Account. We will not be liable for any loss or damage that results from the unauthorized use of your Account, either with or without your knowledge. You are fully responsible for your failure to safeguard information or for permitting any other person to access or use the Services via your Account, and you agree that we may attribute all use of your Account to you.

You may not sell or otherwise transfer, share or “loan” your Account. We have the right to cancel or suspend your Membership, including blocking access to or closing your Account, for any reason or for no reason at any time, as determined in our sole discretion.
b.) Membership Fees: The Community may charge a non-refundable subscription fee for all or certain tiers/types of Membership (the “Membership Fee”). Paid Memberships may be offered for different durations, including on a monthly, quarterly, or annual term, and with upfront or periodic billing. Member agrees that by selecting a specific Membership term during the registration process and accepting these Terms they have committed to a Membership of the relevant duration (“Membership Term”). The Membership Term and payment cadence or terms may differ (for example, an annual Membership may be offered with monthly billing).
Unless otherwise stated, the Membership Term automatically renews for successive Membership Terms of equal duration unless notice is received from the Member at least thirty (30) days in advance for annual (or longer) Memberships, fifteen (15) days in advance for quarterly Memberships or seven (7) days in advance for monthly Memberships. You may communicate your intention to not renew your Membership by clicking HERE. By registering as a Member of a fee-based Membership, you agree that your subscription will automatically renew each year and you authorize the Community to charge the Membership Fee to the credit/debit card or other payment provider you have indicated in your Account at the time of registration, and again at the beginning of any subsequent Membership Term. For the avoidance of doubt, Membership Fees are non-refundable and cancelled subscriptions will continue until the end of the then-current Membership Term.
The Community also may charge an application fee and/or fees for special events, courses, or other a-la-carte offerings from time to time (each such offering, an “Additional Offering,” and each such fee, an “Additional Offering Fee”). We may amend the Membership Fees at any time, such amendment effective at the beginning of the next Membership Term. You will be notified in advance if there will be any changes to the amount, date or frequency of the payment of Membership Fees and be given the opportunity to end your Membership in advance of any such changes going into effect. We have the sole discretion to waive or amend the Membership Fees. Membership Fees are NOT refundable if you request to cancel or terminate your Membership. Additional Offerings will often be subject to Additional Terms; Additional Offering Fees are typically NOT refundable unless expressly set forth in any applicable Additional Terms. Should a refund be issued by us, all refunds will be credited solely to the payment method used in the original transaction. Some transactions may be subject to taxes in certain countries or states. Depending on your location and the nature of the product or Services you receive from us, this may be a rental tax, sales tax and/or use tax. Tax rates are different from location to location. You are responsible for paying all such taxes.
c.) Fee Processing: You agree to pay all fees or charges for your Membership in accordance with the fees, charges and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. You must provide a valid credit card or PayPal account (“Payment Provider”). Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card or PayPal account, and you must refer to that agreement and not these Terms to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing your payment details you accept and consent to being charged fees in the form we requested and that no additional notice or consent is required.
d.) Failure to Pay Fees: Failure to pay fees within ten (10) days of the payment due date will result in a Member’s Membership and Account being suspended and if not paid within thirty (30) days of the due date the Member’s Membership and Account will be terminated.
e.) Proposing New Members: Members are encouraged to propose new applicants to join the Community, however, all membership decisions are in our sole discretion.

Members (or their guests) must not be on Membership pause and are responsible for ensuring their guests comply with these Terms, including following any community guidelines, codes of conduct or other Additional Terms applicable. Failure to do so could result in suspension or termination of Member’s Membership and/or Account.

h.) Job Listings: The Services may include access to listings advertising employment opportunities and other job-related content, including links to third-party websites (“Job Listings”). If the Community makes Job Listings available to you, the following terms also apply:
- Job Listings are created and provided by third parties (“Hiring Partners”) over whom the Community exercises no control. The Community assumes no responsibility, and disclaims all liability for the content, accuracy, completeness, legality, reliability, or availability of any Job Listing, or other information submitted by any Hiring Partner.

If you choose to enter a Hiring Partner Site, you accept any terms and conditions imposed by the applicable Hiring Partner or other third-party that owns or operates the applicable Hiring Partner Site.
- Any resume or application information that you submit through the Services, including Personal Data included in a resume or application is subject to our Privacy Policy. When you search for, view and/or initiate a job application related to a Job Listing, we may collect certain information about you and any actions taken by you during your visit using automated means. You agree to the Community’s receipt, use and sharing of such information as set forth in our Privacy Policy. You acknowledge that prior to accessing a Hiring Partner Site or applying for a Job Listing position, you have reviewed and confirm that you are applying to your desired employer. Once you access a Hiring Partner Site and/or provide information to a Hiring Partner (whether in the form of a job application, resume, email, interview material or otherwise), the Community has no control over the Hiring Partner’s use or disclosure of that information.
- We may be compensated by Hiring Partners for posting their Job Listings. We may also promote Job Listing by select Hiring Partners on certain website pages and/or communications you receive from us such as Community newsletters. However, our posting of Job Listings, including placement of a Job Listing on a dedicated page or in a communication to you, is not a representation by the Community regarding the nature, quality, or availability of the role and/or the attributes of a Hiring Partner.
- The Community does not act as an employment agency. By using the Job Listing Services, you acknowledge and agree that the Community is not procuring employees for Hiring Partners or procuring opportunities to work for you. We are merely providing tools enabling Hiring Partners to share, and you to learn about, Hiring Partner job opportunities.
- Hiring Partners are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act and similar laws, anti-discrimination laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and any applicable data protection or privacy laws. We cannot guarantee the validity of a job offer and caution you to verify the validity of a job offer before taking an adverse action regarding your current employment situations. You are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of any Hiring Partner or job offer and agree that any rights you have under any applicable employment, equality or discrimination laws, the US Fair Credit Reporting Act, any corresponding state laws, or any similar laws regulating consumer or credit reporting agencies in other countries, may only be asserted against the Hiring Partner.
- The Community is not a third-party beneficiary of or liable for any agreements between you and a Hiring Partner, regardless of whether we receive a fee from the Hiring Partner in connection with a Job Listing.

14. GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION
a.) Forum Selection/Jurisdiction: Jurisdiction and venue for any controversy, allegation, or claim arising out of or relating to the Services, the Content, your User Contributions, these Terms, or any applicable Additional Terms (collectively, “Dispute”) shall be in New York, New York. Each party submits to personal jurisdiction and venue in New York, New York for any and all purposes.
b.) Pre-Arbitration Notification: The Community and you agree that it would be advantageous to discuss and hopefully resolve any Disputes before formal proceedings are initiated; provided, however, that the Community need not do so in circumstances where its claims of intellectual property rights are concerned (“IP Disputes,” with all other disputes referred to as “General Disputes”). The party making a claim – whether you or the Community– shall send a letter to the other side briefly summarizing the claim and the request for relief. If the Community is making a claim, the letter shall be sent, via email, to the email address listed in your Account, as applicable. If no such information exists or if such information is not current, then we have no notification or delay obligations under this Section 14(b). If you are making a claim, the letter shall be sent to: 228 Park Ave S PMB 48593, New York, New York 10003-1502, USA. If the Dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days after notification, the claimant may proceed to initiate proceedings as set forth in this Section 14. Either you or the Community, however, may seek provisional remedies (such as preliminary injunctive relief) subject to Section 14(d) before the expiration of this sixty (60)-day period.
c.) Arbitration of Claims: Unless you give us notice of opt-out within five (5) business days of your first use of the Services, addressed to: 228 Park Ave S PMB 48593, New York, New York 10003-1502, USA, all actions or proceedings arising in connection with, touching upon or relating to any Dispute, or the scope of the provisions of this Section 14, shall be submitted to JAMS (www.jamsadr.com) for final and binding arbitration under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures if the matter in dispute is over $250,000 or under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures if the matter in dispute is $250,000 or less, to be held in New York, New York, before a single arbitrator. If the matter in dispute is between Community and a consumer, the matter shall be submitted to JAMS in accordance with its Policy on Consumer Arbitration Pursuant to Pre-Dispute Clauses Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness. The arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, then by striking from a list of arbitrators supplied by JAMS. We may have the right to pay the JAMS fees if required for arbitration to be enforceable. The arbitration shall be a confidential proceeding, closed to the general public; provided, however, that a party may disclose information relating to the arbitration proceedings to its and its affiliates’ lawyers, insurance providers, auditors and other professional advisers. The fact that there is a dispute between the parties that is the subject of arbitration shall be confidential to the same extent. The arbitrator shall issue a written opinion stating the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator’s award is based. Neither party shall be entitled or permitted to commence or maintain any action in a court of law with respect to any matter in dispute until such matter shall have been submitted to arbitration as herein provided and then only for the enforcement of the arbitrator’s award; provided, however, that prior to the appointment of the arbitrator or for remedies beyond the jurisdiction of an arbitrator, at any time, either party may seek pendente lite relief (subject to the provisions of these Terms waiving or limiting that relief) in a court of competent jurisdiction in New York, New York or, if sought by Community, such other court that may have jurisdiction over you, without thereby waiving its right to arbitration of the dispute or controversy under this Section 14; provided further, however, that the losing party shall have fifteen (15) business days after the issuance of the arbitrator’s decision to fully comply with such decision, after which the prevailing party may enforce such decision by a petition to the Supreme Court, Civil Branch, New York County or, in the case of you, such other court having jurisdiction over you, which may be made ex parte, for confirmation and enforcement of the award. To the extent there are any challenges to the arbitrability of a claim, the arbitrator shall determine any and all such challenges.
d.) Limitation on Injunctive Relief: AS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU CLAIM THAT YOU HAVE INCURRED ANY LOSS, DAMAGES, OR INJURIES IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, THEN THE LOSSES, DAMAGES, AND INJURIES WILL NOT BE DEEMED IRREPARABLE OR SUFFICIENT TO ENTITLE YOU TO AN INJUNCTION OR TO OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF OF ANY KIND. THIS MEANS (WITHOUT LIMITATION) THAT, IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR CLAIM, YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT SEEK, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN, ANY COURT OR OTHER ACTION THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH OR PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OR EXPLOITATION OF THE SERVICES, CONTENT, USER CONTRIBUTIONS, PRODUCT, OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNED, LICENSED, USED, OR CONTROLLED BY ANY COMMUNITY PARTY (INCLUDING YOUR LICENSED USER CONTRIBUTIONS) OR A LICENSOR OF ANY COMMUNITY PARTY.
e.) Governing Law: These Terms and any applicable Additional Terms, General Disputes and IP Disputes, and any other claim brought by you against the Community Parties or by Community against you pursuant to this Section 14, or otherwise related to the Services, Content, User Contributions, products, or Community intellectual property, will be governed by, and construed and resolved in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York and the United States of America (with respect to matters subject to federal jurisdiction such as copyright) without regard to principles of conflicts of law. This Section 14 shall be governed solely by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1, et seq., and not by the law of any state, and is enforceable pursuant to its terms on a self-executing basis. You and Community agree that we intend that this Section 14 satisfies the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act. This Section 14 can only be amended by mutual agreement. Either party may seek enforcement of this Section 14 in any court of competent jurisdiction.
f.) Class Action Waiver: As permitted by applicable law, both you and Community waive the right to bring any Dispute as a class, consolidated, representative, collective, or private attorney general action, or to participate in a class, consolidated, representative, collective, or private attorney general action regarding any Dispute brought by anyone else. Notwithstanding any provision in the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures to the contrary, the arbitrator shall not have the authority or any jurisdiction to hear the arbitration as a class, consolidated, representative, or private attorney general action or to consolidate, join, or otherwise combine the Disputes of different persons into one proceeding. Notwithstanding the arbitration provision set forth above, if the provision regarding waiver of class, collective, representative, and private attorney general claims of this Section 14 is found to be void or otherwise unenforceable, any such class, collective, representative, or private attorney general claims must be heard and determined through an appropriate court proceeding, and not in arbitration.
g.) Jury Waiver: AS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ALL CLAIMS AND ISSUES ARISING UNDER, IN CONNECTION WITH, TOUCHING UPON OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, THE BREACH THEREOF AND/OR THE SCOPE OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT, AND INCLUDING ANY CLAIM FOR FRAUDULENT INDUCEMENT THEREOF.
h.) Small Claims Matters: Notwithstanding the foregoing, either of us may bring qualifying claim of General Dispute (but not IP Disputes) in small claims court, subject to Section 14(f).
i.) Survival: The provisions of this Section 14 shall supersede any inconsistent provisions of any prior agreement between the parties. This Section 14 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any termination of your use of the Services or these Terms.
