For a copy of the Privacy Policy, please Click Here. By submitting such User Content or other materials to us, you: (a) represent and warrant that Mentored’s™ use of your submission does not and will not breach any agreement, violate any law or infringe upon any third party’s rights; (b) agree that Mentored™ is free to use in any manner all or part of the content of any such User Content or other materials on an unrestricted basis without the obligation to notify, identify or compensate you or anyone else; and © grant Mentored™ all necessary rights, including a waiver of all copyright, trademark, privacy and moral rights, to use all User Content and/or materials, in whole or in part, or as a derivative work, without any duty by Mentored™ to anyone whatsoever.

23. Dispute Resolution Provisions. The Agreement shall be treated as though it were executed and performed in New York, New York and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without regard to conflict of law principles). Should a dispute arise concerning the Mentored™ Offerings, the terms and conditions of the Agreement or the breach of same by any party hereto: (a) the parties agree to submit their dispute for resolution by arbitration before the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York, in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association; and (b) you agree to first commence a formal dispute proceeding by completing and submitting an Initial Dispute Notice which can be found here. We may choose to provide you with a final written settlement offer after receiving your Initial Dispute Notice (“Final Settlement Offer”). If we provide you with a Final Settlement Offer and you do not accept it, or we cannot otherwise satisfactorily resolve your dispute and you wish to proceed, you must submit your dispute for resolution by arbitration before a reputable arbitration organization as mutually agreed upon by the parties, in your county of residence, by filing a separate Demand for Arbitration, which is available here. For claims of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or less, you can choose whether the arbitration proceeds in person, by telephone or based only on submissions. If the arbitrator awards you relief that is greater than our Final Settlement Offer, then we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration and, if you retained an attorney to represent you in connection with the arbitration, we will reimburse any reasonable attorneys’ fees that your attorney accrued for investigating, preparing and pursuing the claim in arbitration. Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive to the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude any party from: (i) seeking injunctive relief in order to protect its rights pending an outcome in arbitration; and/or (ii) pursuing the matter in small claims court rather than arbitration. Although we may have a right to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses if we prevail in arbitration, we will not seek such an award from you unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous.

To the extent permitted by law, you agree that you will not bring, join or participate in any class action lawsuit as to any claim, dispute or controversy that you may have against Mentored™ and/or its employees, officers, directors, members, representatives and/or assigns. You agree to the entry of injunctive relief to stop such a lawsuit or to remove you as a participant in the suit. You agree to pay the attorney’s fees and court costs that Mentored™ incurs in seeking such relief. This provision preventing you from bringing, joining or participating in class action lawsuits: (A) does not constitute a waiver of any of your rights or remedies to pursue a claim individually and not as a class action in binding arbitration as provided above; and (B) is an independent agreement. You may opt-out of these dispute resolution provisions by providing written notice of your decision within thirty (30) days of the date that you first access the Site and/or App, as applicable.

24. Electronic Communications. By communicating with Mentored™ electronically, such as via any Site and/or App communication tools, you acknowledge and agree to receive communications from Mentored™ electronically. Please be advised that while Mentored™ will attempt to respond to any such communications quickly, certain circumstances may result in delays. You hereby acknowledge and agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and/or other communications that Mentored™ may provide to you electronically will satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

25. Miscellaneous. To the extent that anything in or associated with the Mentored™ Offerings is in conflict or inconsistent with the Agreement, the Agreement shall take precedence, other than with respect to the: (a) Mentor Agreement, which shall include additional terms and conditions that shall apply to the relationship between Mentored™ and Mentors; and (b) Sponsored Session Program Rules, which shall include additional terms and conditions that shall apply to Sponsors. The parties do not intend that any agency or partnership relationship be created through operation of the Agreement. Should any part of the Agreement be held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed consistent with applicable law and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect. Mentored™ may assign its rights and obligations under the Agreement, in whole or in part, to any party at any time without any notice to you. The Agreement, may not however, be assigned by you, and you may not delegate your duties under them. Headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section. Any failure by Mentored™ to enforce any provision of the Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision nor of the right to enforce such provision at any later date, unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of Mentored™.
