RushHQ's Terms Of Service
Use of the RushHQ.com website and all authorized services and facilities provided through it or in relation to it (the “Service”) by any individual, fraternity chapter or other institution (the “Member”) shall be according to the following terms and conditions ("Terms of Service").
Preliminary Provisions
- Exclusive Terms. These terms and conditions, except those contrary to applicable law, provide the exclusive terms of the relationship between RushHQ LLC ("The Provider") and the Member. Nothing outside the terms listed in this document shall constitute part of any agreement between the Provider and the Member relating to the Member's use of the Service, and any previous agreement is superseded by these terms.
- Subject to Change. The Provider reserves the right to update and change the Terms of Service from time to time without notice. Any new features that augment, enhance or change the current Service, including the release of new tools and resources, shall be subject to the Terms of Service. Continued use of the Service after any such changes shall constitute consent to such changes. The most current version of the Terms of Service is available at: http://rushhq.com/terms.
- Violations. Violation of any of any of these terms by the Member will result in the termination of the Member's account, and the Provider reserves the right to bar use of the Service by any person or entity which has violated the Terms of Service in the past.
- Disclaimer. To the full extent permitted by law, the Member agrees to use the Service at its own risk on an “as is” basis and understands that the Provider is not responsible for preserving, protecting, prohibiting or regulating in any way any information or data provided or transmitted by other Members ("Content"), or provided or transmitted by the Member. The Member expressly understands and agrees that the Provider shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses (regardless of whether the Provider has been advised of the possibility of such damages), resulting from: (i) the use or the inability to use the Service; (ii) the cost of procurement of substitute goods and services resulting from any goods, data, information or services purchased or obtained or messages received or transactions entered into through or from the Service; (iii) unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data; (iv) statements or conduct of any third party on the Service; (v) termination of your account; or (vi) any other matter relating to the Service. The Provider does not warrant that (i) the Service will meet your specific requirements, (ii) the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, (iii) the results that may be obtained from the use of the Service will be accurate or reliable, (iv) the quality of any products, services, information, or other material purchased or obtained by you through the service will meet your expectations, and (v) any errors in the Service will be corrected.
- Indemnification. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to hold harmless and indemnify the Provider, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, and employees from and against any third party claims arising from or in any way related to your use of the Service, including any liability or expense arising from all claims, losses, damages (actual and consequential), suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorneys' fees, of every kind and nature. In such a case, RushHQ LLC will provide you with written notice of such claim, suit or action.
- Privacy. The privacy of information submitted to or transmitted through the service is governed by a separate Privacy Policy, available at: http://rushhq.com/privacy.
Nature of Service
This Service provides Members with online access to a fraternity recruitment management suite incorporating a database of recruits with easy communication tools to facilitate interaction between a fraternity chapter, it's members and it's recruits. Fraternity members subscribe to the Service and create and join groups, most of which will represent individual chapters. Members then determine the scope and nature of the information to make available to the chapter through the Service.
Account Terms
Payment, Refunds, Upgrading and Downgrading Terms:
- The Member must provide a valid credit card for paying accounts. Free accounts are not required to provide credit card information.
- The Member is billed in advance on an annual basis for use of the Service. Each payment is non-refundable. The payments are in consideration of the creation, deletion and modification of accounts, as well as the right to use the service. The Provider will not pay any refund or credit if the Member terminates or suspends use of the service before the end of any prepaid period.
- All fees are exclusive of any taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and the Member shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States (federal or state) taxes.
- For any upgrade or downgrade in plan level, the Member will automatically be invoiced and charged at the rate for the new plan on the next billing cycle.
- Downgrading your plan level may cause the loss of content and features.
Cancellation and Termination:
- The Member is solely responsible for properly cancelling the Member's account. An email or phone request to cancel an account is not considered cancellation. The Member may cancel an account at any time by clicking on the Account link in the Admin navigation bar at the top of the screen. The account screen provides a simple, two-click cancellation process; however, for fraternity accounts we require a written confirmation before we delete your data. This process is the only valid means to cancel an account, except as otherwise provided in these Terms of Service. We do this to ensure that data is not accidentally deleted in the case of an account intrusion.
- All Content and personal information stemming from the Member's account will be immediately deleted from the Service upon a valid cancellation.
- If the Member cancels the Service before the end of any term for which full payment has been received, the cancellation will take effect immediately and the Member will not incur any new charges.
- The Provider, in its sole discretion, has the right to suspend or terminate the Member's account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service for any reason at any time. The Provider reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.
- Violation of the Terms of Use governing individual conduct on the Service, by any individual through any membership associated with the Member's account, may result in termination of the Member's account if not addressed to the satisfaction of the Provider. Such violations include, but are not limited to, verbal, physical, written or other abuse (including threats of abuse or retribution) of any other Member, customer, employee, or officer.
Modifications to the Service and Prices:
- The Provider reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice.
- Prices of all plans, including but not limited to monthly subscription fees to the Service, are subject to change upon two-month (60 days) notice from the Provider. Such notice may be provided at any time by posting the changes on the Service or through any other reasonable means.
- The Provider shall not be liable to the Member or to any third party for any modification, price change, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.
Copyright and Content Ownership:
- The Provider claims no intellectual property rights over the material provided to the Service by Members.
- The Provider does not pre-screen Content, but the Provider or any designee of the Provider has the right (but not the obligation) in its sole discretion to refuse or remove any Content from the Service.
- The Member agrees not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any portion of the Service, use of the Service, or access to the Service without the express written permission of the Provider.
- The Member must not modify, adapt or hack the Service or modify another website so as to falsely imply that it is associated with the Service, or any other service of the Provider.
Indemnification
- To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Member agrees to hold harmless and indemnify the Provider, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, and employees from and against any third party claims arising from or in any way related to the Member’s use of the Service, including any liability or expense arising from all claims, losses, damages (actual and consequential), suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorneys' fees, of every kind and nature. In such a case, the Provider will provide the Member with written notice of such claim, suit or action.
- Additionally, and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Member agrees to fully indemnify the Provider with regard to any suit or proceeding for damages, if the suit involves claims arising directly or indirectly from the Member’s failure to comply with its obligations under the Child Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance paragraph of these Terms of Service. The fact that a cause other than the Member’s failure to comply with such obligations may have contributed to the harm alleged in such suit or proceeding will not in any way diminish the scope or force of this indemnification, even if such other cause is the Provider’s own failure or negligence.
General Conditions
- Technical support is only available via email, telephone, and chat.
- The Provider may, but has no obligation to, remove Content and delete accounts containing Content that it determines in its sole discretion to be unlawful, offensive, threatening, libellous, defamatory, pornographic, obscene or otherwise objectionable. The Provider may also remove any Content and delete accounts containing Content that it believes may violate any party's intellectual property rights or these Terms of Service and the individual Terms of Use.
- The Member understands that the technical processing and transmission of the Service, including your Content, may be transferred unencrypted if SSL is not enabled and involve (a) transmissions over various networks; and (b) changes to conform and adapt to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices.
- The Member must not transmit to or through the Service, any worms or viruses or any code of a destructive nature.
- If the Member's bandwidth usage exceeds 20,000 MB/month, or significantly exceeds the average bandwidth usage (as determined solely by the Provider) of other customers of the Service, we reserve the right to throttle your file or image hosting until you can reduce your bandwidth consumption.
- The failure of the Provider to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The Terms of Service constitutes the entire agreement between the Member and the Provider and governs the Member's use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and the Provider (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service).
- These Terms of Service will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions or those of your actual state or country of residence. Any claims, legal proceedings or litigation arising in connection with the Service will be brought solely in Cheyenne, WY, and you consent to the jurisdiction of its courts.
