​
2. Your Interactions, Restrictions, and Reporting

​
3. Fees and Payment Terms
The fees and payment terms applicable to the Emotionally Speaking Services and related support are set forth in the applicable Order.
​
4. Term, Termination and Effects of Termination
Unless earlier terminated as set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement commences upon the date You first access, download or use the Emotionally Speaking Services (“Effective Date”) and continues to the end of the last effective Subscription Period. Emotionally Speaking may change the pricing for Subscription Terms subsequent to the initial Term (each a “Renewal Term”), in its sole discretion. Either party may terminate this Agreement and any Order hereunder upon immediate effect for any reason whatsoever, notwithstanding Emotionally Speaking may terminate this Agreement and any Order hereunder if You violate or breach the Acceptable Use Policy. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, (a) Emotionally Speaking will cease providing the Emotionally Speaking Services and (b) You will cease all access to the Emotionally Speaking Platform unless permitted by Emotionally Speaking.

​
Trial license: As part of the trial Services, you may be offered a limited time period to try the platform or services. Emotionally Speaking may also withdraw or modify any free trial offer and/or the Emotionally Speaking trial terms and conditions at any time without prior notice and with no liability.
​
Rescheduling single group sessions: You may reschedule a group session no later than 24 hours prior to the assigned group session time. All rescheduled session(s) must be completed within 30 calendar days from date of the originally schedule group session. It is your responsibility to reschedule the group session. Not rescheduling within the 30 day time frame means a forfeit of the funds.
​
Missing a group session: Missing a group session without rescheduling means that you forfeit the fee for that session.
​
Monthly and yearly all access passes: If you purchase a monthly and/or yearly all access pass and miss a schedule session without prior notification, then there is no fee penalty for the 1st missed session. If you need to reschedule a session, you can do so at least 24 hours in advance. Repeated missed sessions will incur a $10 fee per time missed.
​
Cancellation of Monthly or Yearly All Access: You may cancel the monthly or yearly all access prior to the start of subscription for a full refund. If the month or year has started already, but you have not attended a single group session, then you may cancel for a full refund within the first 7 calendar days after the subscription has started.
We reserve the right to cancel your subscription of our services at any time.

8. Confidentiality
"Confidential Information" is non-public information of a party which is provided to the other party hereunder and which is either designated as confidential or of a type which should be recognized by a commercially reasonable party as confidential. Confidential Information of Emotionally Speaking includes the Services and its related documentation and materials, along with these terms and conditions. The party receiving Confidential Information may use it only for purposes connected with the facilitation of these Terms or Services and may not disclose it to any third party unless such third party is supporting the provision of the Services or otherwise performing obligations hereunder and is bound in writing by confidentiality restrictions substantially similar to those required hereunder.

​
9. General Provisions, Arbitration, Governing Law, and Venue
Arbitration
You and Emotionally Speaking agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between You and Emotionally Speaking arising in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement or to Your relationship with Emotionally Speaking as a user of the Services (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of the Agreement) will be determined by mandatory binding individual arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney fees), except that the arbitrator may not award declaratory or injunctive relief benefiting anyone but the parties to the arbitration. This arbitration provision will survive termination of the Agreements.
​
Notwithstanding the clause above, You and Emotionally Speaking both agree that nothing herein will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to (1) bring an individual action in a small claims court, (2) pursue enforcement actions through applicable federal, state, or local agencies where such actions are available, (3) seek injunctive relief in a court of law, or (4) to file suit in a court of law to address intellectual property infringement claims.
​
Your arbitration fees and Your share of arbitrator compensation will be limited to those fees set forth in the AAA Rules with the remainder paid by Emotionally Speaking. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of Your claim or the relief sought in the arbitration is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such a case, You agree to reimburse Emotionally Speaking for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise Your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
​
Any arbitration must be commenced by filing a demand for arbitration within one (1) year after the date the party asserting the claim first knows or reasonably should know of the act, omission, or default giving rise to the claim; and there shall be no right to any remedy for any claim not asserted within that time period. If applicable law prohibits a one-year limitation period for asserting claims, any claim must be asserted within the shortest time period permitted by applicable law.
​
Venue
This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within the State of Delaware, without resort to its conflict of law provisions. To the extent that any issues under this Agreement are litigated in court, the state court in Delaware will be the jurisdiction in which any suits should be filed.
​
Ownership
As between the parties and subject to the grants expressly set forth in this Agreement, Emotionally Speaking owns all right, title and interest in and to the Emotionally Speaking Services and anonymous/aggregate data, feedback, and any and all patent rights, copyrights, trademark rights, trade secret rights and other intellectual property rights embodied in or related to the foregoing.
​
Subcontractors
Emotionally Speaking may use the services of third-party coaches and other subcontractors and permit them to provide the Emotionally Speaking Services.
​
Privacy
If you are a natural person who is a resident of California or the European Union (“California Resident” or “EU Resident”) and use our Services, you have additional rights as set forth in the Privacy Policy.
​
Third-Party Tools
You acknowledge and agree that the Emotionally Speaking Services utilize certain third-party videoconferencing, communications tools and other services in connection with Emotionally Speaking Services, e.g., Skype or FaceTime (“Third-Party Tools”). While Your data provided to Emotionally Speaking through Third-Party Tools remains subject to these terms, use of Third-Party Tools themselves is subject to the terms and conditions of the Third-Party Tool providers. Emotionally Speaking is not responsible for the operation of or any changes to the Third-Party Tools or the acts or omissions of Third-Party Tool providers.
​
Assignment
Emotionally Speaking may transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any company, firm or person at any time if it does not materially affect Your rights under it. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms to anyone else. This Agreement is personal to You and no third party is entitled to benefit under this Agreement except as provided here
​
Notices
Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all notices given by You to us must be given to hello@EmotionallySpeaking.com. We may give notice to You at the e-mail address You provide to us when You register or in any other way. Notices will be deemed given as of the day they are sent by email, messenger, delivery service, or U.S. mail (postage prepaid, certified or registered, return receipt requested), and addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as the party to receive the notice so designates by notice.
​
Waiver and Severability
A party’s delay or failure to exercise a right or remedy will not result in a waiver of that right or remedy. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of this Agreement to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under the governing law, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and will be construed so as to most nearly reflect the parties’ intent with respect to such provision.
​
Changes to Terms
Emotionally Speaking may revise these Terms from time to time and at our sole discretion. When such changes are effected, Emotionally Speaking will publish an updated version on our website. The changes will become effective and will be deemed accepted by You, (a) immediately for those who register for the Services after the updated version is published on Emotionally Speaking’s website, or (b) for those having pre-existing accounts, the updated Terms will be deemed effective with Your continued use of the Services. You have rights to dispute an updated term which materially alters Your rights or obligations (with exception to changes required by law) within ten (10) business days from the date of the new Terms being published, upon written notification to: hello@emotionallyspeaking.com. Please note: Your rights and access to the Services may be temporarily disrupted until such dispute is resolved between You and Emotionally Speaking. If we are unable to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days of Your written notification of dispute, the Services will be terminated.
​
Miscellaneous
This Agreement, including all Orders, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all previous or contemporaneous agreements between the parties, relating to its subject matter, and any change to its terms must be in writing and agreed by each of the parties.
