We may also, in our sole discretion, permit you from time to time to submit, upload, publish or otherwise make available to us textual, audio and/or visual content and information, including reviews and feedback related to the Site or App and initiation of support requests (“User Content”).  Any User Content provided by you remains your property.

By providing User Content to us, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, transferrable, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, to use, copy, modify, create derivative works of, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, and otherwise exploit in any manner such User Content in all formats and distribution channels now known or hereafter devised (including in connection with the Training Slate Services), without further notice to or consent from you, and without the requirement of payment to you or any other person or entity.

You represent and warrant that: (i) you either are the sole and exclusive owner of all User Content or you have all rights, licenses, consents and releases necessary to grant us the license to the User Content as set forth above; and (ii) neither the User Content nor your submission, uploading, publishing or otherwise making available of such User Content nor our use of the User Content as permitted herein will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party’s intellectual property or proprietary rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation.

You agree to not provide User Content that is defamatory, libelous, hateful, violent, obscene, pornographic, unlawful, or otherwise offensive, as determined by us in our sole discretion, whether or not such material may be protected by law.  We may, but shall not be obligated to, review, monitor, or remove User Content, at our sole discretion and at any time and for any reason, without notice to you.

Pricing and Product and Service Information

Prices and availability of products and services offered by Training Slate are subject to change without notice. While Training Slate attempts to be as accurate as possible, it does not guarantee the accuracy of the descriptions of the Training Slate Services. Training Slate reserves the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update information (including without limitation information related to text, pricing, availability and product and service descriptions) at any time without notice. In the event that an item is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information, Training Slate shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse or cancel any purchased orders placed for that item. Any necessary refunds will be issued for any such cancelled orders. 

Payment for Products or Services

Any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a paid service through our Site or App are deemed part of these Terms of Use.

We use a third-party payment processor to bill you for our paid services through a payment account. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the payment processor in addition to these Terms of Use. We are not responsible for errors made by the payment processor. By choosing to use our paid services, you agree to pay to us, through the payment processor, all charges at the prices then in effect. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that our payment processor makes even if it has already requested or received payment.

Additional terms applicable to your payment may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen payment method. If we, through our payment processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your billing account upon demand.

Some of our paid services may consist of an initial period, for which there is a one-time charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you. By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such paid services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD, GO TO YOUR USER ACCOUNT PAGE.

YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. NOTIFICATION SHOULD BE GIVEN AT [support@trainingslate.com].  IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH BELOW.

Your non-termination or continued use of a paid service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your payment method for that paid service. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use one of our paid services.

Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a paid service must be used within the specified time of the trial. You must cancel and stop using a paid service before the end of the trial period in order to avoid being charged. If you cancel prior to the end of the trial period and are inadvertently charged for a paid service, please contact us at [support@trainingslate.com]

Termination

We may terminate your access to all or any part of the Training Slate Services at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice, effective immediately, which may result in the forfeiture and destruction of all information associated with your membership. Upon termination, you agree that you shall no longer access (or attempt to access) the Training Slate Services. If you wish to terminate your account, you may do so by contacting us at [support@trainingslate.com].  Any fees paid hereunder are non-refundable. All provisions of these Terms of Use which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, licenses of user content, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability.

Governing Law and Arbitration

All matters relating to the Training Slate Services and these Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware in the United States without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.

Any dispute, claim or controversy relating in any way to your use of the Training Slate Services or these Terms of Use will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement and that you and Training Slate are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms of Use. Any small claims action must be filed in DELAWARE Superior Court. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by this court and to venue in this court.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages).

If you elect to seek arbitration or file a small claims court action, you must first send to Training Slate, by certified mail, a written notice of your claim (a “Notice”). The Notice to Training Slate must be addressed to:  Training Slate, Inc. – info@trainingslate.com (the “Notice Address”). If Training Slate initiates arbitration, it will send a written Notice to the email address used for your account, if any. A Notice, whether sent by you or Training Slate, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the dispute, claim or controversy; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If Training Slate and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or Training Slate may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court.

The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), as modified by these Terms of Use, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision, this arbitration provision shall govern. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision. The arbitrator must follow the terms of these Terms of Use as a court would and must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

YOU AND TRAINING SLATE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Training Slate agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.

Network Access and Devices

You are responsible for obtaining the data network access necessary to use the Training Slate Services.  Your mobile network’s data and messaging rates and fees may apply if you access or use the Training Slate Services from a wireless-enabled device.  You are responsible for acquiring and updating compatible hardware or devices necessary to access and use the Training Slate Services, and any updates thereto.  We do not guarantee that the Training Slate Services, or any portion thereof, will function on any particular hardware or devices.  In addition, the Training Slate Services may be subject to malfunctions and delays inherent in the use of the Internet and electronic communications.

Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE TRAINING SLATE SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver by Training Slate of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Training Slate to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent, and the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Training Slate, Inc. with respect to the Training Slate Services, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the Training Slate Services.
