Last updated: Jul 20, 2021

FORM FOR YOU, INC. Terms of Service Agreement This Form For You, Inc. Terms of Service Agreement (“Agreement”) is between you and Form For You, Inc. (for the purposes hereof, “FORM,” “we” or “us”). The Agreement governs your use of the website (joinform.com) (“Site”), an online platform that allows consumers like you to purchase and view video programs and purchase products or services from FORM’s websites and applications (collectively, the “Services”).

Section 10 of this Agreement contains a mandatory ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. By using the Services on the Site, you agree that any claims you may have against FORM relating to the Site and/or Services must be ARBITRATED, and you waive the right to (1) assert claims against FORM in court; (2) participate in a class action; and (3) have a jury hear your case.

1. Acceptance

By creating an account, viewing videos, making a purchase, downloading FORM-branded applications that we power, or otherwise visiting or using the Site, you accept this Agreement and consent to contract with us electronically.

If you are an entity other than a natural person, the person who registers the account or otherwise uses the Site must have the authority to bind the entity. In this context, “you” means both the entity and each person who is authorized to access the account.

We may update this Agreement by posting a revised version on our Site. By continuing to use the Site, you accept any revised Agreement.

You may terminate the Agreement at any time by deleting your account. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account for your breach of the terms hereof. If FORM deletes your account for breach, you may not re-register. In the event of any termination or expiration of the Agreement, the following sections will survive: Section 7 (Disclaimers), Section 8 (Limitation of Liability), Section 9 (Indemnification), Section 10 (Arbitration Agreement; Jury Waiver; Class Action Waiver), and Section 11 (General Provisions).

2. Accounts Registration

You must create an account to use the Site and Services. To do so, you must provide an email address. By creating an account, you agree to receive notices from us and our third-party affiliates (i.e., Vimeo and Shopify) at this email address.

Age Requirements: You may not create an account if you are younger than 16 years of age. By creating an account, you represent that you are at least 16 years of age, and, to the extent required by law, you have the permission of a parent or guardian to create an account and use the Site.

Parents and Guardians: By granting your child permission to use the Site through your account, you agree and understand that you are responsible for monitoring and supervising your child's usage. If you believe your child is using your account and does not have your permission, please contact us immediately so that we can disable access.

Account Security: You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, including unauthorized activity. You must safeguard the confidentiality of your account credentials. If you are using a computer that others have access to, you must log out of your account after each session. If you become aware of unauthorized access to your account, you must change your password and notify us immediately.

3. Privacy

Please review our Privacy Policy on the Site to learn about the information we collect from you when you use of the Site, how we use it, and with whom we share it.

By creating an account, you agree that FORM will have access to your account information and account activities, such as the viewing and purchase of the Services, and your contact information. FORM is not responsible for any third-party use or disclosure of your data (including that of Vimeo and Shopify).

4. Program Viewing and Purchase Options

FORM may offer the following purchase options through FORM’s websites and applications:

Purchase: After paying the stated fee, you may use the Services an unlimited number of times
Subscription: For a recurring fee, you may use the Services within FORM’s subscription channel an unlimited number of times during your subscription period. FORM may add or remove programs from the channel at any time.

To make a purchase, you must provide a valid payment method. We may apply taxes, including VAT (value-added tax), to any charges. Prices and other terms of purchase are subject to change. If FORM provides you access to a program on a free basis, such access will be deemed a “purchase” for the purpose of this Agreement.

ALL PURCHASES, INCLUDING RECURRING CHARGES, ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE.

Free trials and Discounts: FORM may offer free-trial or discounted subscriptions. When a free-trial period ends, your paid subscription begins (unless you have cancelled) and you must pay the full monthly or annual fee. If FORM provides a discount for the first subscription period, you must pay the discounted fee; in any renewal, you must pay the full fee.

Automatic Renewal: To the extent permitted by applicable law, subscriptions automatically renew for the subscription period until you cancel. Your payment method will be charged at the beginning of each subscription period. If FORM offers a free-trial period, your payment method will be charged at the end of the free-trial period unless you cancel before the end of that period.

How to Decline Renewal: To pause or cancel a subscription, visit your account settings. Your changes will be applied to your next subscription period.

In-App Purchase: FORM may allow you to purchase subscriptions within apps you download. When you make such “in-app” purchases, you will be billed by the app platform, not us. To turn off automatic renewal for subscriptions, access FORM’s account settings. Any billing inquiries should be directed to the app platform.

5. Licenses and Intellectual Property

The availability of the Site for any particular device, operating system, or browser.
The continued support for a particular feature of the Site.
The viewing quality of any Services.

8. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FORM, ITS PARENT, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES, CONSULTANTS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, AND PARTNERS (INCLUDING VIMEO AND SHOPIFY) SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR (I) ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES; (II) DAMAGES RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND FORM; OR (III) DAMAGES EXCEEDING THE GREATER OF USD $100 OR THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO FORM OVER THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE FILING OF YOUR CLAIM.

Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the exclusion or limitation of liability as set forth above, so these limitations above may not apply to you.

9. Indemnification

You shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless FORM and its parent, directors, officers, employees, representatives, consultants, agents, suppliers, and partners (including Vimeo and Shopify) from any liability, claim, demand, damages, losses, and costs (including attorneys’ fees) arising from: (i) your unauthorized use of any Services; (ii) your breach of this Agreement or violation of any law or third-party right; or (iii) any content that you upload or submit to us.

10. Arbitration Agreement; Jury Waiver; Class Action Waiver

This Section 10 sets forth a binding arbitration agreement between you and FORM (the “Arbitration Agreement”). In this Arbitration Agreement, you agree:

To arbitrate all claims relating to the Site;
To waive your right to a trial by jury; and
To waive any right to proceed on a class basis in arbitration or otherwise.

10.1 Arbitration Agreement

The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof), or your use of the Site shall be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures.

10.2 Overview

Arbitration provides a private dispute resolution process that is usually more streamlined and less formal than litigation. In an arbitration, your rights will be determined by a neutral third party called an arbitrator, and not a judge or jury. Both you and FORM are entitled to fundamentally fair proceedings at every stage of the arbitration, including the hearing (if any). The arbitrator will decide all issues relating to the dispute, including the question of arbitrability, and can grant any relief that a court could grant. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.

10.3 Location of Hearing

If you are a consumer, as defined by JAMS in its Consumer Minimum Standards, you may request that the arbitration hearing be conducted in the area in which you reside. Otherwise, the hearing (if any) shall take place in Los Angeles County, California, United States of America.

10.4 Class-Action Waiver

EACH PARTY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO GO TO COURT, TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION.

10.5 Exception for Small Claims Court Matters

Notwithstanding the above, each party has the right to bring an individual claim against the other in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to Rule 1 of JAMS’ Consumer Minimum Standards. If one party files an arbitration that could be litigated in such a small claims court, the responding party may request that the dispute proceed in small claims court. If the responding party requests to proceed in small claims court before the appointment of the arbitrator, the arbitration shall be administratively closed. If requested after the appointment of the arbitrator, the arbitrator shall administratively close the arbitration so long as the proceedings are at an early stage and no hearing has occurred.

10.6 Jurisdiction and Venue

The Federal Arbitration Agreement (“FAA”) shall govern this Arbitration Agreement. To the extent not preempted or inconsistent with the FAA, the choice of law provisions in Section 11 are incorporated and are applicable to this Arbitration Agreement. Any arbitration award may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction.

11. General Provisions

Choice of Law: Any disputes relating to this Agreement or your use of the Site will be governed by the laws of the state of California and the United States of America (with respect to matters subject to federal jurisdiction such as copyright), without regard to principles of conflicts of law. The Uniform Commercial Code, the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act, and the United Nations Convention of Controls for International Sale of Goods shall not apply.

Choice of Venue for Litigation; Jury Trial Waiver: Any proceeding to enforce the Arbitration Agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that the Arbitration Agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation (except for small-claims court actions) shall be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Los Angeles County, California. You hereby irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes and, to the extent permitted by law, both FORM and you WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY in such an action.

No Waiver: The failure of FORM, Vimeo and/or Shopify to exercise or enforce any term of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such term.

Provisions Severable: If any term of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that term will be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining terms will remain in full force and effect.

No Third Parties: No third parties shall have any rights under this Agreement, except Vimeo and/or Shopify may enforce the terms herein against you, and indemnified parties may enforce indemnification rights.

Force Majeure: FORM shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God; natural disasters; wars; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; strikes; epidemics; riots; power failures; computer failure; loss or malfunction of utility, transportation, computer (hardware or software) or telephone communication service; accidents; labor disputes, acts of civil or military authority; governmental actions; or inability to obtain labor, material, equipment or transportation.

U.S. Export Compliance: You may not use the Site if (i) you are personally subject to U.S. government sanctions or (ii) you are located in a country that is subject to U.S. Government sanctions such that your use of the Site would violate U.S. law. You represent and warrant that you are not subject to such sanctions.

Entire Agreement: This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between you and FORM concerning your use of the Site and supersedes all prior agreements regarding the same. This Agreement may only be modified by us. Any changes will be posted to the Site and will apply prospectively.
