Terms of Service

Last updated: [current date]

1. Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you (the "Client," "you," or "your") and Verity Media Partners, Inc. ("Verity Media," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of our website at www.verity-media.co (the "Site"), our marketing consulting services, digital products, courses, coaching programs, memberships, and any related content, materials, or services we provide (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing or using the Site, registering for an account, purchasing any product or service, or otherwise engaging with Verity Media, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must immediately discontinue use of the Site and Services.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Your continued use of the Site or Services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract under applicable law to use our Services. By using the Site or Services, you represent and warrant that you meet these eligibility requirements.

Our Services are not directed to children under 13 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected information from a child under 13, we will delete that information promptly. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately at stephanie@verity-media.co.

If you are accessing the Services on behalf of a business entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and references to "you" in these Terms include both you individually and the entity you represent.

3. Description of Services and Products

Verity Media provides business-to-business marketing consulting services, which may include but are not limited to: strategic marketing planning, brand positioning, content strategy, digital marketing campaigns, analytics and reporting, and related advisory services. We also offer digital products such as templates, guides, toolkits, and resources; online courses and training programs; coaching and mentorship programs (individual or group); membership communities with ongoing access to resources and support; and other professional development materials tailored to marketing professionals and business owners.

The specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and pricing for consulting services are defined in separate service agreements, statements of work, or proposals. For digital products, courses, coaching programs, and memberships, the description, duration, access terms, and pricing are specified on the relevant product or service page at the time of purchase.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any Service or product at any time, with or without notice. We are not liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of Services, provided that you will retain access to any products or programs you have already purchased for the duration specified at the time of purchase, unless termination occurs due to your breach of these Terms.

4. Accounts and Registration

Certain Services require you to create an account by providing accurate, current, and complete information, including your name, email address, phone number, business name, and payment information. You agree to update this information promptly if it changes.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials (username and password) and for all activities that occur under your account, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to notify us immediately at stephanie@verity-media.co of any unauthorized access or use of your account or any other security breach.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if we reasonably believe that the information you provided is inaccurate, incomplete, or fraudulent, or if your use of the account violates these Terms. You may not transfer, sell, or share your account with any other person or entity.

5. Purchases, Pricing, and Payment

All prices for Services and products are stated in U.S. dollars and are subject to change at any time, though changes will not affect purchases already completed. Prices displayed on the Site at the time of purchase are the prices you will be charged, except for applicable taxes or fees.

Payment is processed through third-party payment processors (such as Stripe or PayPal). By providing payment information, you authorize us and our payment processors to charge the applicable fees to your designated payment method. You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use the payment method you provide.

For subscription-based Services or memberships with recurring billing, you authorize us to charge your payment method automatically at the beginning of each billing cycle (monthly, quarterly, or annually as specified) until you cancel. You are responsible for canceling your subscription before the next billing date to avoid being charged for the subsequent period. Cancellation instructions are provided in your account settings or by contacting us at stephanie@verity-media.co.

You are responsible for all applicable taxes, including sales, use, value-added, or similar taxes, except for taxes based on our net income. If we are required to collect or remit taxes, they will be added to your invoice.

We do not store your full credit card or bank account information. Payment security and data handling are managed by our third-party payment processors in accordance with applicable payment card industry standards.

6. Refund and Cancellation Policy

All sales of digital products, courses, and one-time purchases are final. Due to the nature of digital content and immediate access upon purchase, we do not offer refunds except where required by law or in cases of technical failure that prevents access to the purchased product and that we are unable to resolve within a reasonable time.

For coaching programs and memberships with recurring billing, you may cancel your subscription at any time by following the cancellation instructions in your account or by contacting us at stephanie@verity-media.co. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period, and you will retain access to the Service until that date. No refunds or prorated credits are provided for partial billing periods.

For consulting services governed by a separate service agreement or statement of work, refund and cancellation terms are specified in that agreement. In the absence of specific terms, either party may terminate the engagement with [reasonable notice period] written notice, and you will be responsible for payment for all work completed and expenses incurred up to the termination date.

If you are located in the European Union, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction that provides a statutory right of withdrawal for distance contracts, you may have the right to cancel your purchase within a specified period (typically 14 days). However, by accessing digital content or Services immediately upon purchase, you expressly agree to waive this right of withdrawal where permitted by law.

Requests for refunds in exceptional circumstances (such as technical issues, billing errors, or other extraordinary situations) will be considered on a case-by-case basis at our sole discretion. Contact stephanie@verity-media.co with details of your request.

7. Intellectual Property and License to Use

Certain templates, worksheets, or resources may be designated as editable for your business use. In such cases, you may customize and use those specific materials in your business operations, but you may not resell, redistribute, or claim ownership of the underlying templates or frameworks.

All trademarks, service marks, and trade names used on the Site are the property of Verity Media or their respective owners. You may not use any trademarks without prior written permission.

8. User Content and Acceptable Use

Certain Services may allow you to submit, post, or share content, including comments, questions, feedback, testimonials, case studies, or other materials ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content, but by submitting it through the Site or Services, you grant Verity Media a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, display, distribute, and create derivative works from your User Content for purposes of operating the Services, marketing our business, and improving our offerings.

You agree not to use the Site or Services to: (a) violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right; (b) transmit any harmful, offensive, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable content; (c) impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity; (d) transmit viruses, malware, or other malicious code; (e) interfere with or disrupt the operation of the Site or Services or any servers or networks connected to them; (f) collect or harvest information about other users without their consent; (g) use automated means (bots, scrapers, or similar tools) to access the Site without our prior written permission; or (h) engage in any activity that could damage, disable, or impair the Site or Services.

We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor, review, edit, or remove User Content that we determine, in our sole discretion, violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services if you engage in prohibited conduct.

9. Third-Party Services and Links

The Site and Services may contain links to third-party websites, services, tools, or resources that are not owned or controlled by Verity Media. These may include payment processors, email marketing platforms, scheduling tools, social media platforms, affiliate partners, or other service providers.

We provide these links for your convenience, but we do not endorse, warrant, or assume responsibility for any third-party content, products, services, or practices. Your use of third-party services is governed by their respective terms and privacy policies, and you access them at your own risk.

We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your interactions with third parties, including but not limited to payment disputes, data breaches, service interruptions, or any other issues related to third-party services. You should review the terms and privacy policies of any third-party service before using it.

If you access the Services through a third-party platform (such as a learning management system or membership platform), your use of that platform is subject to its terms, and we are not responsible for the platform's operation, security, or availability.

10. Disclaimers

THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, VERITY MEDIA DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

We do not warrant that the Site or Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free from viruses or other harmful components. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or timeliness of any content, information, or materials provided through the Services.

Our Services, including consulting, coaching, courses, and digital products, are educational and informational in nature. We do not guarantee any specific results, outcomes, revenue, profit, client acquisition, or business success from your use of the Services. Your results depend on numerous factors, including your effort, skills, experience, market conditions, and other variables beyond our control.

Any testimonials, case studies, or success stories shared on the Site or in our marketing materials represent the experiences of specific individuals or businesses and are not guarantees of similar results for you. Individual results vary, and we make no representation that you will achieve the same or similar outcomes.

The information and advice provided through the Services are based on our professional experience and knowledge but do not constitute legal, financial, accounting, tax, or other professional advice. You should consult with qualified professionals before making business decisions or taking action based on information obtained through the Services.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you. In such cases, our warranties are limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, VERITY MEDIA PARTNERS, INC., ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, AND LICENSORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE OR SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID TO VERITY MEDIA IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory on which your claim is based and even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or (c) any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Verity Media Partners, Inc., its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of or inability to use the Site or Services; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any rights of any third party, including intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights; (d) your User Content or any content you submit through the Services; (e) your breach of any representation or warranty in these Terms; or (f) any negligent or wrongful conduct by you.

We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claim. You may not settle any claim without our prior written consent.

This indemnification obligation survives termination of these Terms and your use of the Services.

13. Term and Termination

These Terms commence when you first access the Site or Services and continue until terminated by either party.

You may terminate these Terms at any time by discontinuing use of the Site and Services and, if applicable, closing your account. If you have an active subscription or ongoing service agreement, you must cancel according to the procedures in Section 6 (Refund and Cancellation Policy) or the terms of your service agreement.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site or Services at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice, including if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, engaged in fraudulent or illegal activity, or pose a risk to us or other users. Termination may result in the deletion of your account and any content associated with it.

Upon termination: (a) your right to access and use the Site and Services immediately ceases; (b) you remain responsible for all fees and charges incurred prior to termination; (c) you must cease all use of our Content and delete any copies in your possession; and (d) any provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 16) will continue to apply.

Termination does not relieve you of any obligations or liabilities incurred prior to termination, and we reserve all rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

14. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law

These Terms and any disputes arising out of or related to the Site or Services are governed by the laws of [governing state/jurisdiction], without regard to its conflict of law principles. You agree that any legal action or proceeding related to these Terms must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in [county and state], and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

Before initiating any formal legal proceeding, you agree to first contact us at stephanie@verity-media.co to attempt to resolve the dispute informally. Provide a detailed description of the dispute and your proposed resolution. We will attempt to resolve the matter within thirty (30) days of receiving your notice.

If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, you agree that any claim or dispute (except for disputes related to our intellectual property rights or requests for injunctive relief) will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator, and the arbitrator's decision will be final and binding. The arbitration will take place in [city and state], or remotely via videoconference if both parties agree. Each party will bear its own costs and attorneys' fees, unless the arbitrator awards fees to the prevailing party as permitted by law.

YOU AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR LEGAL PROCEEDING WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION, CONSOLIDATED ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.

If any portion of this arbitration provision is found to be unenforceable, the remainder shall remain in effect, except that if the class action waiver is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration provision shall be void and disputes will be resolved in court.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive or equitable relief in court to protect intellectual property rights or confidential information.

For users located in the European Union, United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions with mandatory consumer protection laws, this section does not affect any statutory rights you may have that cannot be waived by contract, and you may have the right to bring disputes before the courts or dispute resolution bodies in your jurisdiction.

15. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify, amend, or update these Terms at any time at our sole discretion. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you by email, through a notice on the Site, or by other reasonable means.

Changes take effect immediately upon posting unless otherwise specified. Your continued use of the Site or Services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must discontinue use of the Site and Services and, if applicable, cancel your account or subscription.

Material changes that significantly affect your rights or obligations (such as changes to pricing, refund policies, or dispute resolution procedures) will be communicated with reasonable advance notice where feasible, and you may have the opportunity to terminate your account or subscription before the changes take effect if you do not agree to them.

It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically. We recommend checking this page each time you access the Site or before making a purchase.

16. Severability and Entire Agreement

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. The invalid provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, or if that is not possible, it will be severed from these Terms.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any additional terms or agreements applicable to specific Services (such as service agreements, statements of work, or product-specific terms), constitute the entire agreement between you and Verity Media regarding the subject matter herein and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, agreements, or understandings, whether written or oral.

No waiver of any provision of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of that provision or any other provision. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

These Terms may not be assigned or transferred by you without our prior written consent, but may be assigned by us without restriction. Any attempted assignment in violation of this provision is void.

Headings and section titles are for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
