These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“you” or “user”) and Ventemo (“Ventemo,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing access to and use of the website and related services (collectively, the “Services”). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
1. Eligibility
You represent that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms in your jurisdiction and that you meet any minimum age requirements imposed by applicable law. If you use the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind that organization.
2. Changes
We may modify the Services and these Terms at any time. We will post updated Terms with a revised “Last updated” date. Material changes may require additional notice where required by law. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms, except where prohibited by law.
3. Accounts and security
If account registration is offered, you must provide accurate information and keep credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account. Notify us promptly of unauthorized use.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- violate any applicable law or regulation;
- harass, threaten, defraud, exploit, or harm any person;
- upload malware, attempt unauthorized access, or disrupt the Services;
- scrape, crawl, or collect data from the Services in violation of these Terms or applicable law;
- misrepresent your identity or affiliation; or
- use the Services in any manner that could damage, disable, or impair our systems or other users.
We may investigate violations and cooperate with law enforcement as permitted by law.
5. Not professional advice; no clinician–patient relationship
The Services may provide peer support, community features, or general information. The Services do not constitute medical, psychological, psychiatric, legal, or other professional advice. Nothing on the Services is a substitute for qualified professional care. If you are in crisis or may harm yourself or others, contact local emergency services or a crisis hotline immediately.
6. User content and license
You retain ownership of content you submit, subject to the license below. You grant Ventemo a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, modify, display, distribute, and otherwise process your content solely to operate, improve, secure, promote, and provide the Services, and to comply with law. You represent that you have all rights necessary to grant this license.
7. Moderation and enforcement
We may remove, restrict, or refuse to transmit content, suspend or terminate accounts, and take other actions we reasonably deem necessary to protect users, the public, or the Services. We are not obligated to monitor all content.
8. Paid services (future)
Ventemo may introduce paid offerings in the future. Unless and until you enter into a separate purchase flow and accept applicable terms of sale, no fee-based services are offered through the Services. If paid services are introduced, pricing, billing, taxes, renewals, cancellations, and refunds will be governed solely by the terms presented at the time of purchase, including any then-current Refund Policy.
9. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
10. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, VENTEMO AND ITS AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO VENTEMO FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (USD $50), EXCEPT WHERE LIMITATION IS PROHIBITED BY LAW.
11. Indemnity
You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Ventemo and its affiliates from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your content, your use of the Services, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
12. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction stated in any future written addendum, or otherwise by the laws applicable to Ventemo’s principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Courts in that jurisdiction (unless a mandatory consumer venue applies) will have exclusive jurisdiction, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.
13. Miscellaneous
These Terms constitute the entire agreement regarding the subject matter here and supersede prior understandings. If any provision is held invalid, the remainder remains in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger or sale.
