You acknowledge and agree that: (1) the software is copyrighted material under United States and international copyright laws that is exclusively owned by Mastermind; (2) you do not acquire any ownership rights in the software; (3) you may not modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale, or create derivative works from the content of the software; (4) except as otherwise expressly permitted under copyright law, you may not copy, redistribute, publish, display or commercially exploit any material from the software without the express written permission of Mastermind; and (5) in the event of any permitted copying (e.g., from the Website to your computer system), no changes in or deletion of author attribution, trademark, legend or copyright notice shall be made.

B-  “SPAMMING” AND UNSOLICITED COMMUNICATIONS. We have zero tolerance for spam and unsolicited communications. Any communications sent or authorized by you reasonably deemed “spamming,” or any other unsolicited solicitations (including without limitation postings on social media or third-party blogs) will be deemed a material threat to Mastermind’ reputation and to the rights of third parties. It is your obligation, exclusively, to ensure that all business communications comply with state and local anti- spamming or analogous laws.

- Use only permission-based marketing electronic communications lists (i.e., lists in which each recipient affirmatively opted-in to receiving those electronic communications).

- Always include a working “unsubscribe” mechanism in each marketing electronic communication that allows the recipient to opt out from your mailing list (receipt/ transactional messages that are exempt from “unsubscribe” requirements of applicable law are exempt from this requirement).

- Comply with all requests from recipients to be removed from your mailing list within the earlier of ten (10) days of receipt of the request, or the deadline under applicable law.

- Maintain, publish, and comply with a privacy policy that meets all applicable legal requirements, whether you control the sending of electronic communications, and include a link to such privacy policy in your electronic communications.

- Include in each electronic communication a link to your then-current privacy policy applicable to that electronic communication.

- Include in each electronic communication your valid physical mailing address or a link to that information.

- Do not send electronic communications to addresses obtained from purchased or rented lists.

- Do not use third party electronic addresses, domain names, or mail servers without proper permission from the third party.

- Do not routinely send electronic communications to non-specific addresses (e.g., [email protected] or [email protected]).

- Do not engage in spamming.

- Do not disguise the origin, or subject matter of, any electronic communications or falsify or manipulate the originating message address, subject line, header, or transmission path information for any electronic communication.

- Do not send offers to obtain or attempt to obtain personal information, or generate leads, for third parties.

- Do not send “chain letters,” “pyramid schemes,” or other types of electronic messages that encourage the recipient to forward the content to strangers.

- Do not send to lists of addresses that are programmatically generated or scraped from the Internet.

- Do not employ sending practices, or have overall message delivery rates, which may cause harm to our services or other users of our services.

- Do not send messages that may be considered junk mail. Some examples of these types of messages include, but are not limited to, messaging related to penny stocks, gambling, multi-level marketing (except in compliance with the FTC’s Business Guidance Concerning Multi- Level Marketing, see www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/business-center/guidance/business-guidance- concerning-multi-level-marketing), direct to consumer pharmaceutical sales, and payday loans.


You further agree to conduct yourself and all your businesses in full compliance with all applicable laws, whether through the use of Mastermind or otherwise.


SECTION 3 – OUR PRIVACY POLICY AND YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION


We respect your privacy and the use and protection of your non-public, personal information. Your submission of personal information through the Website is governed by our Privacy Statement. Mastermind reserves the right to modify its Privacy Statement in its reasonable discretion from time-to-time. Our Privacy Statement is incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

SECTION 4 – INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE; REGISTRATION; PASSWORDS; PROHIBITION AGAINST HOSTING THIRD-PARTY AGENCY ACCOUNTS


As a Mastermind user, you will be required to create an account with Mastermind. You warrant that the information you provide us is truthful and accurate, and that you are not impersonating another person. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any password you may use to access your Mastermind user account, and you agree not to transfer your password or user name, or lend or otherwise transfer your use of or access to your user account, to any third party. So called “agency accounts,” or accounts in which you host funnels for third parties, are prohibited. Should your usage data indicate, in Mastermind’ sole and exclusive discretion, that you are operating an agency account, you will be subject to cancellation of your Mastermind user account or enhanced pricing for your Mastermind user account, at Mastermind’ sole and exclusive discretion. You are fully responsible for all transactions with, and information conveyed to, Mastermind under your user account. You agree to immediately notify Mastermind of any unauthorized use of your password or user-name or any other breach of security related to your user account. You agree that Mastermind is not liable, and you will hold Mastermind harmless, for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with any of the foregoing obligations. Please see Section 21 below for additional information.

SECTION 5 – ORDER PLACEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE


If you order a service or product, payment must be received by us before your order is accepted. We may require additional information regarding your order if any required information was missing or inaccurate and may cancel or limit an order any time after it has been placed. Your electronic order confirmation, or any form of confirmation, does not signify our acceptance of your order. You must contact us immediately at [email protected] to modify or cancel your pending order. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to amend your order in accordance with your instructions.


All items are subject to availability. We will notify you if any item is not available, the expected availability date, and may offer you an alternative product or service. If the availability of any product or service is delayed and you do not wish to substitute the product or service, upon your request, we will cancel your order and if previously charged, your payment card will be fully refunded for that specific order. We reserve the right to limit the sales of our products and services to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction. We may exercise this right on a case-by-case basis at our sole and exclusive discretion.


Your purchase order of products and other services is conditioned on you re-affirming your acceptance of this Agreement.


All advertised prices are in, and all payments shall be in, U.S. Dollars.


SECTION 6 – REFUNDS FOR HARD GOODS


If you have purchased a “hard good” (for example, a book or other tangible product) from Mastermind or any related brands, you may receive a limited refund if you comply with the following conditions:


1. You must request a refund in writing by contacting [email protected];


2. Your request for a refund must be made within thirty (30) days of your purchase;


3. You must return the hard goods to Mastermind immediately, according to the shipping and other instructions you will receive by email after requesting a refund;


4. The hard goods must be returned to Mastermind in like-new, or re-sellable condition, as determined in Mastermind’ sole, reasonable discretion.

SECTION 7 - AUTOMATIC ENROLLMENT AND PAYMENT, AND CANCELLATION


If you do not want to continue your subscription after your trial comes to an end, you must contact us at least 24 hours before your trial period ends by submitting a cancellation request to us via our support email address [email protected]. If you do not contact us at least 24 hours before your trial period ends to cancel, your subscription will automatically continue and the payment card that you provided at the time of enrolment online will be charged the full Mastermind monthly membership subscription rate provided at the time of enrollment each month until you cancel. Mastermind can change the monthly membership subscription rate at any time. Mastermind will provide prior written notification of any membership subscription fee changes.

If you wish to cancel your Mastermind subscription (including subscriptions for services) at any time, you must submit a cancellation request to us via our support email address [email protected] or through your Account Dashboard, as detailed here. Mastermind offers both monthly and annual subscriptions. Annual subscriptions start one (1) year after the date of your purchase. Monthly and annual subscriptions (including subscriptions for services and promotional payment plans for annual subscriptions), require at least ten (10) days’ notice of cancellation by email. If you provide such notice less than ten (10) days before the first day of your next monthly subscription, your credit card may still be charged. You will not be entitled to prorate your last month’s or year’s use, nor will you be entitled to any refund for any payments to Mastermind; Mastermind in its sole discretion may charge a cancellation fee equal to the amount the subscription was discounted.


SECTION 8 – SUBSCRIPTION TERMS AND AUTOMATIC PAYMENT  


A Mastermind user is responsible for paying all sums due to Mastermind in connection with their monthly subscription in accordance with these Terms. The first fee payable in accordance with these Terms is due when the user account is set up and payment of the monthly fee is a condition of access, or after your free trial ends and you have not canceled the automatic subscription with us. Every calendar month, your account will be charged the subscription fee plus applicable tax for the following month’s subscription, together with any other fees for the following month’s subscription plus any accumulated charges for the past period (collectively, “Fees”). Failure by the Mastermind user to use any of the services available through the service provided by Mastermind does not relieve the Mastermind user of their payment obligations under these Terms.


Potential users can pay by credit card or debit card. Payment details shall be collected by us through our secure financial data collection mechanism. You acknowledge and agree that we hold data relating to the transaction, including the last four digits and the expiration date of the card used to purchase the products or services together with details on when payment is due. You further acknowledge and agree that payments are due on a recurring basis in accordance with the payment terms for the specific service purchased (unless the subscription is cancelled in accordance with these Terms) and therefore authorize the automatic payment collection terms applicable to that specific service (e.g., on a monthly basis and for a specific amount).


IF YOU ARE A MASTERMIND USER WITH A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION AND YOU HAVE PROVIDED US WITH A VALID CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD NUMBER OR AN ALTERNATE PAYMENT METHOD, EACH PAYMENT WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY PROCESSED AT THE TIME OF YOUR DESIGNATED PAYMENT DATE (MONTHLY) AND WILL BE BILLED TO THE PAYMENT METHOD YOU PROVIDED TO US AT THE TIME OF YOUR ENROLLMENT. IF YOU WISH TO CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION TO MASTERMIND, YOU MAY DO SO THROUGH YOUR ACCOUNT DASHBOARD OR BY E-MAILING [email protected] AT LEAST TEN (10) DAYS BEFORE THE FIRST DAY OF YOUR NEXT SUBSCRIPTION MONTH OR ANNUAL RENEWAL.


Mastermind reserves the right to immediately terminate a user’s account and/or service for any unpaid (in whole or part) period of the subscription (with or without notice). Termination of service in no way relieves or excuses the user from any obligation to pay outstanding charges or expenses. In the event Mastermind starts collection processes of any type, you will be liable for all collection costs, including legal fees and expenses, as provided in Section 20 below.


In addition to any Fees, Mastermind may also charge applicable value added or other tax.

SECTION 9 – SHIPPING FEES


Unless otherwise stated on the Website at the time of purchase, if we ship you a physical product, we reserve the right to add applicable shipping and handling fees to your order. Unless otherwise stated, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill your order within a reasonable time after receipt of your properly completed and verified order. Accurate shipping address and phone number information is required. Although we may provide delivery or shipment timeframes or dates, such dates are good-faith estimates and are subject to change. If your order will be delayed, we will contact you at the e-mail address you provided when placing your order. If we are unable to contact you or you would like to cancel your order, we will cancel the order and refund the full amount charged. We shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost, or expense related to any delay in shipment or delivery caused by any third-party carrier or other delivery service not owned or controlled by us. The risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to any third-party carrier.

SECTION 10 – PRODUCTS, SERVICES, AND PRICES AVAILABLE ON THE WEBSITE


Products, services, and prices are generally posted, but are subject to change on Terms and Service. Mastermind reserves the right, without notice, to discontinue products or services or modify specifications and prices on products and services without incurring any obligation to you. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms, any price changes to your subscription or purchase of product(s) or services will take effect following email notice to you.


Price changes are effective on the first day of the month after the price change is posted. By accessing, using, subscribing or placing an order over the Website, you authorize Mastermind to charge your account in the amount indicated for the value of the services you select, including any future price changes. If you request a downgrade in services, the downgrade (and corresponding price reduction) will become effective on the first day of the month following your requested downgrade. By your continued use of Mastermind services, and unless you terminate your subscription as provided herein, you agree that Mastermind may charge your credit card monthly for the products and services you have selected, and you consent to any price changes for such services after e-mail notice has been provided to you.


Mastermind takes reasonable steps to ensure that the prices set forth on the Website are correct, and to accurately describe and display the items available on the Website. If the correct price of our product is higher than its stated price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation.


When ordering products or services, please note that Mastermind does not warrant that product or service descriptions are accurate, complete, current, or error-free, or that packaging will match the actual product that you receive. All sales are deemed final except as provided in Section 6 of these Terms. Mastermind’ descriptions of, or references to, products or services not owned by Mastermind are not intended to imply endorsement of that product or service or constitute a warranty by Mastermind.

SECTION 11 – DISCLAIMER - YOUR BUSINESS’ INDIVIDUAL RESULTS WILL VARY


Every online business is different, employing different strategic approaches and organizational structures, and offering different products and services. Therefore, individual results will vary from user to user. YOUR BUSINESS’ INDIVIDUAL RESULTS WILL VARY DEPENDING UPON A VARIETY OF FACTORS UNIQUE TO YOUR BUSINESS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO YOUR CONTENT, BUSINESS MODEL, AND PRODUCT AND SERVICE OFFERINGS.


Mastermind does not promise, guarantee, or warrant your business’ success, income, or sales. You understand and acknowledge that Mastermind will not at any time provide sales leads or referrals to you or your business. Those businesses who purchase our products or services will receive access to software and tools to create Internet sales funnels and otherwise assist with their respective online offerings. However, we do not guarantee your business’ success and based upon many market factors that we cannot control, the software and tools we provide may or may not be applicable to your specific business. Further, we do not make earnings claims, efforts claims, return on investment claims, or claims that our software, tools, or other offerings will make your business any specific amount of money, and it is possible that you will not earn your investment back. We do not sell a business opportunity, “get rich quick” program, guaranteed system, franchise system, or a business in a box. You should not purchase our products or services if that is your expectation. Instead, you should purchase with the understanding that using the information and software purchased will take time and effort and may be applicable in some situations but not others. Also, we do not offer any tax, accounting, financial, or legal advice. You should consult your business’ accountant, attorney, or financial advisor for advice on these topics.

SECTION 12 – YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES IN RUNNING YOUR BUSINESS


You represent and warrant that you operate a business in good standing, and you agree that there are no prior or pending government investigations or prosecutions against you or your business. You also agree that you and your business will only use Mastermind’s products and services for lawful purposes and that you shall not use such products or services, whether alone or in connection with other software, hardware, or services, for any unlawful or harmful purpose. You are solely and exclusively responsible for complying with all applicable laws and regulations in running your business, including, but not limited to, all laws governing advertising and marketing claims, subscriptions, refunds, premium offers, tax laws, and all additional laws applicable to your business. You agree to notify Mastermind if any investigation or lawsuit is threatened or filed against you, whereupon Mastermind shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without liability. Mastermind shall have no liability for your violation of any laws. You are solely and exclusively responsible for collecting and reporting all sales and use tax, and any other taxes, which may apply to sales of products or services by your business including, but not limited to, taxes which may apply to voluntary donations provided by your customers (as described in Section 13 below). Mastermind shall not be responsible to collect or report any taxes which may apply to your business or sales of products or services by your business. You agree to indemnify Mastermind as set out in Section 21 below in the event that you and/or your business violates any law and a claim is threatened or asserted against Mastermind as a result.

SECTION 13 – COMMISSIONS PROGRAM AND INDEPENDENT MASTERMIND AFFILIATE PROGRAM


Mastermind may offer you an opportunity to become an independent Mastermind Affiliate (“Affiliate”), wherein you have the opportunity to earn additional money for Mastermind accounts that you sell to other users. Mastermind reserves the sole and exclusive right to determine the amount of remuneration each Affiliate will receive in exchange for the Affiliate’s efforts. Affiliate commission is further discussed in the Mastermind Affiliate Agreement.


For avoidance of doubt, Affiliates are independent contractors and are not employees or agents of Mastermind. Affiliates have no authority to act on behalf of or bind Mastermind. Affiliates shall be solely and exclusively responsible for all costs and other expenses incurred. Sections 18 and 20 below – in their entirety (as well as all other terms in this Agreement) – apply to Affiliates, and further govern the relationship between Mastermind and each Affiliate.


Affiliates are responsible for following local, state, and federal laws, including but not limited to those laws outlined in Section 16 below and avoiding making misrepresentations or creating the wrong net impression of the products and services offered by Mastermind.


To find out more information about the Affiliate program and the additional terms that apply. For avoidance of doubt, all Sections of these Terms and Conditions apply to you in your role as Affiliate, unless expressly provided otherwise.

SECTION 14 – TESTIMONIALS, REVIEWS, AND PICTURES/VIDEOS


Mastermind is pleased to hear from users and customers and welcomes your comments regarding our services and products. Mastermind may use testimonials and/or product reviews in whole or in part together with the name, city, and state of the person submitting it. Testimonials may be used for any form of activity relating to Mastermind’ services or products, in printed and online media, as Mastermind determines in its sole and exclusive discretion. Testimonials represent the unique experience of the participants and customers submitting the testimonial, and do not necessarily reflect the experience that you and your business may have using our services or products. As set forth above in Section 11, your business’ results will vary depending upon a variety of factors unique to your business and market forces beyond Mastermind’ control. Note


that testimonials, photographs, and other information that you provide to us will be treated as non- confidential and nonproprietary, and, by providing them, you grant Mastermind a royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to use them.


Additionally, Mastermind reserves the right to correct grammatical and typing errors, to shorten testimonials prior to publication or use, and to review all testimonials prior to publication or use. Mastermind shall be under no obligation to use any, or any part of, any testimonial or product review submitted.

SECTION 15 – COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAWS, INCLUDING COMMITMENT AGAINST HARASSMENT AND INTERFERENCE WITH OTHERS


As a Mastermind user and/or Affiliate, whether or not you display the Mastermind’ Badge, you must comply with all laws, both U.S. and foreign, including, but not limited to, laws prohibiting deceptive and misleading advertising and marketing, e-mail marketing laws (including the federal CAN-SPAM Act (15 U.S.C. § 7701)), telemarketing laws (including the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (47 U.S.C. § 227) and the Federal Trade Commission’s Telemarketing Sales Rule (16 C.F.R. § 310)), laws governing testimonials (including the Federal Trade Commission’s Revised Endorsements and Testimonials Guides (16 CFR Part 255)), and/or any similar laws, laws relating to intellectual property, privacy, security, terrorism, corruption, child protection, or import/export laws. You are solely responsible for ensuring their compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, and court orders of any kind of any jurisdiction applicable to you and your business, and any recipient to whom you send digital messages using our products or services. You have the responsibility to be aware of, understand, and comply with all applicable laws and ensure that you and all users of your account comply with such applicable laws at all times.


If you use any messaging software, or any other messaging system or other software or hardware provided by you or a third-party, you agree that you will follow all applicable laws with respect to sending messages, including without limitation the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act. You further agree to indemnify and defend Mastermind from any claims, damages, losses, and lawsuits of any kind or nature that may be made or brought against Mastermind relating in any way to your violation of law or third-party rights by use or misuse of any messaging software or hardware, whether provided by Mastermind. You further understand and agree that Mastermind has no control over, and therefore cannot be responsible for, the functionality or failures of any third-party software, including without limitation Facebook, Facebook Messenger, and internet browser notifications. Mastermind DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY MASTERMIND MESSAGING SOFTWARE WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH ANY THIRD- PARTY SOFTWARE. YOU ARE SOLELY AND EXCLUSIVELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR USE OF ANY AND ALL MESSAGING SOFTWARE AND/OR HARDWARE.


COMMITMENT AGAINST HARASSMENT AND INTERFERENCE WITH OTHERS. You must not use our services, whether alone, or in connection with other software or hardware, to: (i) store, distribute, or transmit any malware or other material that you know, or have reasonable grounds to believe, is or may be tortious, libelous, offensive, infringing, harassing, harmful, disruptive, or abusive; or (ii) commit, promote, aid, or abet any behavior, which you know, or have reasonable grounds to believe, is or may be tortious, libelous, offensive, infringing, harassing, harmful, disruptive, or abusive.

SECTION 18 – DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER


PLEASE READ THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION CAREFULLY TO UNDERSTAND YOUR AND YOUR BUSINESS’ RIGHTS. EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM THAT YOU OR YOUR BUSINESS MAY HAVE IN THE FUTURE MUST BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING CONFIDENTIAL ARBITRATION. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. THE RIGHTS THAT YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS DISCOVERY OR THE RIGHT TO APPEAL, MAY BE MORE LIMITED OR MAY NOT EXIST. YOU AGREE THAT YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS MAY ONLY BRING A CLAIM IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF (LEAD OR OTHERWISE) OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OR CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.


THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. HOWEVER, AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF AS A COURT (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE AND DECLARATORY RELIEF OR STATUTORY DAMAGES) AND MUST FOLLOW THESE TERMS AS A COURT WOULD.


If you have a complaint, dispute, or controversy, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] to attempt to resolve the dispute or controversy informally. Any controversy or claim arising out of or related to the use of the Website, any product, service, or software, these Terms, the Privacy Policy, any affiliate agreement, or your relationship with us that cannot be resolved through such informal process or through negotiation within one hundred and twenty (120) days shall be resolved by binding, confidential arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment on the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. We agree that any claim we may have against you or your business will also be subject to this arbitration provision, except as provided in Sections 20 and 21 below. The arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator in the English language in Maricopa County, Arizona, unless we both agree to conduct the arbitration by telephone or written submissions. The arbitrator shall be selected by agreement of the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, chosen in accordance with Rules of the AAA. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and Procedures, in effect at the time of submission of the demand for arbitration. The AAA’s Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, construction, validity, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms and Conditions of Use and Sale, the Privacy Policy, this arbitration provision, and any other terms incorporated by reference into these Terms and Conditions of Use and Sale. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to determine whether any dispute is arbitrable. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to determine whether this arbitration agreement can be enforced against a non-signatory to this agreement and whether a non-signatory to this agreement can enforce this provision against you or Mastermind.


Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s Rules. In all other respects, the parties shall each pay their own additional fees, costs, and expenses, including, but not limited to, those for any attorneys, experts, documents, and witnesses.


The arbitrator shall follow the substantive law of the State of Idaho without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. Any award rendered shall include a confidential written opinion and shall be final, subject to appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, as amended. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.


You and Mastermind agree that disputes will only be arbitrated on an individual basis and shall not be consolidated, on a class wide, representative basis, or with any other arbitration(s) or other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party. You and Mastermind expressly waive any right to pursue any class or other representative action against each other.


Failure or any delay in enforcing this arbitration provision in connection with any particular claim will not constitute a waiver of any rights to require arbitration at a later time or in connection with any other claims except that all claims must be brought within 1 year after the claim arises (the 1-year period includes the one hundred and twenty (120) day informal resolution procedures described above).


This arbitration provision sets forth the terms and conditions of our agreement to final and binding confidential arbitration and is governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9

U.S.C. §§ 1-16, as amended.


This provision survives termination of your account or relationship with Mastermind, bankruptcy, assignment, or transfer. If the class action waiver is deemed unenforceable (i.e., unenforceability would allow arbitration to proceed as a class or representative action), then this entire arbitration provision shall be rendered null and void and shall not apply. If a portion of this arbitration provision (other than the class action waiver) is deemed unenforceable, the remaining portions of


this arbitration provision shall remain in full force and effect.YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS WOULD HAVE HAD A RIGHT TO LITIGATE THROUGH A COURT, TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE YOUR CASE, AND TO BE PARTY TO A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. HOWEVER, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE TO HAVE ANY CLAIMS DECIDED INDIVIDUALLY AND ONLY THROUGH BINDING, FINAL, AND CONFIDENTIAL ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION.

SECTION 19 – MASTERMIND’ ADDITIONAL REMEDIES

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting Mastermind from pursuing in court any other remedies available to it for such breach, threatened breach, infringement, or threatened infringement, including the recovery of monetary damages from you and your business. You and your business hereby irrevocably consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of, and exclusive venue in, the courts of Maricopa County, Arizona for all such claims, and forever waive any challenge to said courts’ exclusive jurisdiction or venue.

Code of Ethics

Last Updated November 17, 2022

Mastermind Code of Ethics


Policies and Code of Ethics of Mastermind Subscribers

All subscribers are expected to adhere to the following Code of Ethics when advertising on Mastermind:

1. Giving your customer/attendees good and accurate information;

2. Refraining from targeting other subscribers;

3. Communicating with customers/attendees in professional manner;

4. Adhering to Mastermind’s sales process in a way not to circumvent its compliance policies;

5. Offering products, trainings or services which are legal, non-hate related, and ethical; and

6. Multi-Level marketing

7. Proper use of Mastermind’s intellectual property.

Violating Mastermind’s Code of Ethics, Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, or DMCA Policy may result in actions against your account including, but not limited to, suspension of listings and/or termination of your subscriber

account.


1. Accurate Information


Presenting accurate information depends largely on the impression we leave on our customers. When presenting our products and services we need to leave customers with the right expectations. If you promise someone that you will teach them how to become a good writer, your services should provide the best information about writing. The key is to deliver what you are promising. Be honest. Don’t use phrases that will create the wrong net impression. Clients will not be happy if you promise them a Porsche but deliver a Volkswagen Bug. Over promising and under delivering makes unhappy customers, who will want a refund.

There are several ways you can create the wrong impression including; 

A) misleading earnings claims; 

B) making undocumented claims; 

C) misrepresenting your product or service; and/or 

D) representing your product or service is easier to use than it is.



A. Earnings Claims


Included in your Mastermind Group description and training must not contain statements that a client will expect a certain income if they join your training. Promises of individuals attaining a certain monthly income within a certain time frame of joining your program, are prohibited unless you can prove that the typical participant can expect that result.

For example, a claim that a client could make $10,000 in two (2) months of joining your group(s) is unacceptable unless you have documented proof that typical students see similar results.

Since you do not know how a client will utilize your service, you will be unable to predict the outcome. The result you should focus on is helping the client learn the skill you are teaching, not a promise of certain income. This is a narrow-minded approach that solely focuses on one outcome, which is unpredictable. Avoid making earning type claims.



B. Unsubstantiated Claims & Testimonials


Claims shared in your Mastermind Group require a reasonable basis. For example, a claim of increased health benefits from a supplement or nutrient; action; and/or health program must have scientific evidence to support it. 

reasonable basis exists when you have support from the claim that is from a reliable source. Wikipedia and general search results from the internet do not constitute a reliable source. A reliable source would include

scientific studies, published accredited materials, and generally acceptable practices. Basically, a source which could withstand criticism.

Furthermore, Mastermind is not responsible for verifying the accuracy of the statements made in stories or “testimonials” shared in your advertisements. All testimonials shared in your advertisements require documentation. Substantiation of your content is a prerequisite of using such material in your Mastermind Group. Even with substantiation you should avoid using testimonials that create an impression of typicality when they really represent the rare occasional client experience. In all cases where you use a testimonial it should be accompanied with a proper disclosure that the results shown “are not typical, are not guarantees, and the client’s results may vary.” The federal guidelines for using endorsements and testimonials in advertising is

found at: https://www.ftc.gov/sites/default/files/attachments/press-releases/ftc-publishes-final-guidesgoverning-endorse ments-testimonials/091005revisedendorsementguides.pdf


C. Misrepresentations 


Your Mastermind Group must not contain material misrepresentations. Advertisements are deceptive if they contain a “material” representation that would likely affect the consumer’s decision to purchase your services.

The standard for determining if a claim is deceptive is as follows: 

1) did the representation affect the consumer’s

decision to purchase your training; and 

2) was there sufficient evidence (documentation) to prove that the

representation was true.

Unfair methods of competition including misrepresentations or the concealment of any material fact with the intent to deceive is prohibited. As discussed, you should go to great measures to ensure your representations are not misleading and convey a clean message.

This is also true if you are claiming to help clients create a certain level of followers, enroll a certain number of customers, or any promise of results must be documented with proof that typical students see similar results.


D. Professional Advice


Unless you are otherwise licensed you should not offer any medical, tax, accounting, financial, or legal advice. Your clients should consult with their accountant, attorney, physician, or financial advisor for advice on your topics. Specific advice on any subject is considered professional advice. For example, generally stating that there are tax deductions available to individuals who own businesses is general advice a lay person can discuss. On the other hand, conducting a detailed conversation with a client about a pending legal issue, and then giving them instructions on how to resolve the issue they face is professional advice. Telling a client that your product will cure, eliminate, or eradicate any type of medical condition is strictly prohibited.



E. Ease of Use


You should avoid making it appear that the training or services you offer is easier than it actually is. Making the ad seem risk free creates the illusion that the process of application or learning that no real work is necessary and that there is no chance of failure. You should always convey to your clients that effort is required to learn any process, and that most ventures involve risk.


2. Subscriber Targeting


You must not target other subscribers in an attempt to deter, deflect, or steal customers. These actions may infringe on your co-Subscriber’s ability to acquire customers. Targeting includes activities which discriminate against, harass, provoke, or disparage customers from using another Subscriber’s products and/or services. Subscribers should not directly or indirectly create or make negative reviews of another Subscriber’s service solely as an attempt to detract buyers from that Subscriber’s products and services. Mastermind will immediately suspend or terminate your subscription if it is deemed you have targeted another subscriber.



3. Customer Communications


A good client is a happy client. Providing your customers with the service you promise is a good start, but it is not enough by itself. You must also communicate with clients and be responsive. Being proactive with your

clients can tell you a lot about their experience. When you consistently ask your customers about their experience, it can help you improve your product and service.

Once a customer has purchased you need to provide them with a means to communicate with you if there are any problems with your product or service. No one will understand your product and service better than you. Consequently, Mastermind is not in the best situation to always help your clients. That responsibility is yours.

4. Code of Ethics

Your reputation is everything. How we relate with one another is the essence of business. If you are not ethical in your dealings with your clients, not only will that cause cancellations and refunds, but it will harm the most valuable asset you have, your reputation. Ethics do not only apply to your buyers, but to other Mastermind Subscribers. Adherence to these Code of Ethics is essential to ensure the satisfaction and reasonable expectation of the customer. By subscribing to Mastermind you agree to follow these ethical guidelines and to avoid making representations that could be harmful to your customers. Failure to abide by this code may result in Mastermind suspending or terminating your subscription.



5. Legal & Ethical Products


Your Mastermind Group must not constitute, facilitate, or promote illegal products, services or activities. Your Mastermind Group targeted to minors must not promote products, services, or content that are inappropriate,

illegal, or unsafe, or that exploit, mislead, or exert undue pressure on the age groups targeted. Your Mastermind Group must not discriminate or encourage discrimination against people based on personal attributes such as race, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, family status, disability, medical or genetic condition.

Your Mastermind Group must not promote the sale or use of tobacco products and related paraphernalia. Advertisements must not promote electronic cigarettes, vaporizers, or any other products that simulate smoking. Your Mastermind Group must not promote the sale or use of illegal, prescription, or recreational drugs.

Your Mastermind Group must not promote the sale or use of unsafe supplements, as determined by Mastermind in its sole discretion. Furthermore, you cannot claim that supplements prevent, treat, or cure diseases. You should also provide an appropriate disclosure when using supplements as required by the Federal Food and Drug] Administration (“FDA”): “Unlike drugs, dietary supplements are not evaluated by the FDA for safety and effectiveness. Dietary Supplements are not meant to prevent, treat or cure diseases.” Remember in your Mastermind Group that “natural” does not always mean safe.

Your Mastermind Group must not promote the sale or use of adult products or services, except for your Mastermind Group promoting training and/or education of family planning and contraception. Your Mastermind Group for contraceptives must focus on the contraceptive features of the product, and not on sexual pleasure or sexual enhancement, and must be targeted to people 18 years or older.

Your Mastermind Group must not contain adult content. This includes nudity, depictions of people in explicit or suggestive positions, or activities that are overly suggestive or sexually provocative.

Your Mastermind Group that assert or imply the ability to meet someone, connect with them or view content created by them must not be positioned in a sexual way or with an intent to sexualize the person featured in your Mastermind Group. Your Mastermind Group must not contain content that infringes upon or violates the rights of any third party, including copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other personal or proprietary rights.

Your Mastermind Group must not contain shocking, sensational, inflammatory or excessively violent content. Your Mastermind Group must not contain profanity or bad grammar and punctuation. Symbols, numbers and letters must be used properly without the intention of circumventing our ad review process.

6. Multi-Level Marketing

Your Mastermind Group may be used to train on how to create or market a multi-level marketing business. All users, however, agree that all content will comply with the Federal Trade Commission’s Business Guidance Concerning Multi-Level Marketing, see www.ftc.gov/tipsadvice/business-center/guidance/business-guidance-concerning-multi-level-marketing).


7. Use of Mastermind’s Intellectual Property


Advertisements that include any reference to Mastermind must be approved by Mastermind. Clients cannot create an impression that your relationship with Mastermind is anything more than it is, which is an independent forum for you to promote your training or services. Furthermore, all other Your Mastermind Group and landing pages must not use our copyrights, trademarks, or any confusingly similar marks, except as expressly permitted by Mastermind. Ensure any ad data collected, received or derived from your Mastermind ad (“Mastermind advertising data”) is only shared with someone acting on your behalf, such as your service provider. You are responsible for ensuring your service providers protect any Mastermind advertising data or any other information obtained from us, limit their use of all of that information, and keep it confidential and secure.

Don’t use Mastermind advertising data for any purpose (including retargeting, commingling data across multiple advertisers’ campaigns, or allowing piggybacking or redirecting with tags), except on an aggregate and

anonymous basis (unless authorized by Mastermind) and only to assess the performance and effectiveness of your Mastermind advertising campaigns.

Don’t use Mastermind advertising data, including the targeting criteria for your ad, to build, append to, edit, influence, or augment user profiles, including profiles associated with any mobile device identifier or other unique identifier that identifies any particular user, browser, computer or device.

Don’t transfer any Mastermind advertising data (including anonymous, aggregate, or derived data) to any ad network, ad exchange, data broker or other advertising or monetization related service.



2. Clear & Precise Refund Policy


MasterMind allows users to post information on its website for sale. These users are defined as “Sellers.” Individuals who buy their training and materials are known as “Buyers.” For courses that are not live events (not hosted on a specific date), MasterMind requires Sellers to provide an unconditional seven (7) day refund policy for any product purchased on https://learn.mastermind.com. This means Buyers may cancel their purchase at any time prior to the expiration of the seventh (7) day after the date they purchased the training. Sellers may

grant Buyers a longer period than seven days if they desire, but must allow the Buyer at least seven (7) days to request a refund.


For live events (hosted on a specific date), MasterMind requires Sellers to provide an unconditional three (3) day refund policy for any product purchased on https://learn.mastermind.com. This means Buyers may cancel their purchase at any time prior to the expiration of the third (3rd) day after the date they purchase access to the live event.


Sellers may grant Buyers a longer period than three days if they desire, but must allow the Buyer at least three (3) days to request a refund. For courses that have live sessions over an extended or distributed period of time, MasterMind requires Sellers to provide a prorated refund based on the number of sessions that have been

attended or participated in.


A clear and precise disclosure is one that the customer sees before they purchase. A small and hidden disclosure is not sufficient. This disclosure must be readily visible (proximate and predominant) to the offer of your service. It is also necessary for clients to be able to quickly review your return/refund policy even after they have purchased. MasterMind will not be responsible for your customer refunds. We may remove your account if you fail to abide by your refund policy.


3. Subscriber Targeting


You must not target other Subscribers in an attempt to deter, deflect, or steal customers. These actions may infringe on your co-Subscriber’s ability to acquire customers. Targeting includes activities which discriminate against, harass, provoke, or disparage customers from using another Subscriber’s products and/or services. Subscribers should not directly or indirectly create or make negative reviews of another Subscriber’s service solely as an attempt to detract buyers from that Subscriber’s products and services. MasterMind will immediately suspend or terminate your subscription if it is deemed you have Targeted another Subscriber.


4. Customer Communications


A good client is a happy client. Providing your customers with the service you promise is a good start, but it is not enough by itself. You must also communicate with clients and be responsive. Being proactive with your clients can tell you a lot about their experience. When you consistently ask your customers about their experience, it can help you improve your product and service. Once a customer has purchased you need to provide them with a means to communicate with you if there are any problems with your product or service. No one will understand your product and service better than you. Consequently, MasterMind is not in the best situation to always help your clients. That responsibility is yours. You should at minimum always have an email

address and telephone number in which the customer may communicate with you listed on your offer. This way you will better be able to service the customer’s needs, especially if they have questions about your service. MasterMind is there if there are technical problems with the service related to the hosting website but is not a great resource for customers who have specific questions about your training. It’s always a good rule of thumb to communicate with your clients. Make it easy for customers to start a conversation.


5. Code of Ethics


Your reputation is everything. How we relate with one another is the essence of business. If you are not ethical in your dealings with your clients, not only will that cause cancellations and refunds, but it will harm the most  aluable asset you have, your reputation. Ethics do not only apply to your buyers, but to other MasterMind Subscribers. Adherence to these Code of Ethics is essential to ensure the satisfaction and reasonable expectation of the customer. By subscribing to MasterMind you agree to follow these ethical guidelines and to avoid making representations that could be harmful to your customers. Failure to abide by this code may result in MasterMind suspending or terminating your subscription.


6. Taxes


Because you are selling goods and services you may be responsible to collect sales tax for the transaction. Sales tax is owed to the state you are selling into, not the state where you are located. Each state has their own rules regarding sales tax. Some states don’t collect sales tax at all. There are several external services that will help you determine sales tax. If you are unsure, use one of those services or contact the state tax agency in the state you are selling into. This all sounds very complicated, but we are working on a solution for you. Shortly we will have a solution for sales tax integrated into our software, which you may use. The service is optional, but the  requirement to collect sales tax in states that have it, is not.


7. Legal & Ethical Products


Your Mastermind Course must not constitute, facilitate, or promote illegal products, services or activities. Your Mastermind Course targeted to minors must not promote products, services, or content that are inappropriate, illegal, or unsafe, or that exploit, mislead, or exert undue pressure on the age groups targeted. 


Your Mastermind Course must not discriminate or encourage discrimination against people based on personal attributes such as race, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, family status, disability, medical or genetic condition. 


Your Mastermind Course must not promote the sale or use of tobacco products and related paraphernalia. Advertisements must not promote electronic cigarettes, vaporizers, or any other products that simulate smoking.


Your Mastermind Course must not promote the sale or use of illegal, prescription, or recreational drugs. Your Mastermind Course must not promote the sale or use of unsafe supplements, as determined by MasterMind in its sole discretion. Furthermore, you cannot claim that supplements prevent, treat, or cure diseases. You should also provide an appropriate disclosure when using supplements as required by the Federal Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”): “Unlike drugs, dietary supplements are not evaluated by the FDA for safety and effectiveness. Dietary Supplements are not meant to prevent, treat or cure diseases.” Remember in Your Mastermind Course that “natural” does not always mean safe.


Your Mastermind Course must not promote the sale or use of adult products or services, except for Your Mastermind Course promoting training and/or education of family planning and contraception. Your Mastermind Course for contraceptives must focus on the contraceptive features of the product, and not on sexual pleasure or sexual enhancement, and must be targeted to people 18 years or older.


Your Mastermind Course must not contain adult content. This includes nudity, depictions of people in explicit or suggestive positions, or activities that are overly suggestive or sexually provocative.


Your Mastermind Course that assert or imply the ability to meet someone, connect with them or view content created by them must not be positioned in a sexual way or with an intent to sexualize the person featured in Your Mastermind Course. 


Your Mastermind Course must not contain content that infringes upon or violates the rights of any third party, including copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other personal or proprietary rights. Your Mastermind Course must not contain shocking, sensational, inflammatory or excessively violent content.


Your Mastermind Course must not contain profanity or bad grammar and punctuation. Symbols, numbers and letters must be used properly without the intention of circumventing our ad review process.


8. Multi-Level Marketing


Your Mastermind Course may be used to train on how to create or market a multi-level marketing business. All users, however, agree that all content will comply with the Federal Trade Commission’s Business Guidance Concerning Multi-Level Marketing.


9. Use of MasterMind’s Intellectual Property


Advertisements that include any reference to MasterMind must be approved by MasterMind. Clients cannot create an impression that your relationship with MasterMind is anything more than it is, which is an independent forum for you to promote your training or services. Furthermore, all other Your Mastermind Course and landing pages must not use our copyrights, trademarks, or any confusingly similar marks, except as expressly permitted by MasterMind. Ensure any ad data collected, received or derived from your MasterMind ad (“MasterMind advertising data”) is only shared with someone acting on your behalf, such as your service provider. You are responsible for ensuring your service providers protect any MasterMind advertising data or any other information obtained from us, limit their use of all of that information, and keep it confidential and secure.


Don’t use MasterMind advertising data for any purpose (including retargeting, commingling data across multiple advertisers’ campaigns, or allowing piggybacking or redirecting with tags), except on an aggregate and anonymous basis (unless authorized by MasterMind) and only to assess the performance and effectiveness of your MasterMind advertising campaigns. 


Don’t use MasterMind advertising data, including the targeting criteria for your ad, to build, append to, edit, influence, or augment user profiles, including profiles associated with any mobile device identifier or other unique identifier that identifies any particular user, browser, computer or device.


Don't transfer any MasterMind advertising data (including anonymous, aggregate, or derived data) to any ad network, ad exchange, data broker or other advertising or monetization related service.

DMCA

Last Updated on November 17, 2022

The DMCA


The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) creates a standardized process for copyright holders (including software developers) to ask Mastermind to take down infringing content. You can find more information about the DMCA at the U.S. Copyright Office's official website.


As with all legal matters, it is always best to consult with a professional about your specific questions or situation. We strongly encourage you to do so before taking any action that might impact your rights. Our guides are NOT legal advice and shouldn't be taken as such.


Accurate Information


The DMCA requires that you swear to the facts in your notice of infringement under penalty of perjury. It is a federal crime to intentionally lie in a sworn declaration. (See U.S. Code, Title 18, Section 1621). Submitting false information could also result in civil liability—that is, you could get sued for money damages.


Investigate


Millions of users and organizations pour their hearts and souls into the content they create using Mastermind. Filing a DMCA notice of infringement against such is a serious legal allegation that carries real consequences for real people. Because of that, we ask that you conduct a thorough investigation and consult with an attorney before submitting a takedown request to make sure that the use isn't actually permissible.

A great first step before sending us a takedown notice is to try contacting the user directly.


No Automated Bots


You should have a trained professional evaluate the facts of every takedown notice you send. If you are outsourcing your efforts to a third party, make sure you know how they operate, and make sure they are not using automated bots to submit notices in bulk. These notices are often invalid and processing them results in needlessly taking down content.


Counter Notices


Any user affected by your takedown notice may decide to submit a counter notice. If they do, we will re-enable their content within 14 days unless you notify us that you have initiated a legal action seeking to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the content on Mastermind.


The Determination


Mastermind exercises little discretion in the process other than determining whether the notices meet the minimum requirements of the DMCA. It is up to the parties (and their lawyers) to evaluate the merit of their claims, bearing in mind that notices must be made under penalty of perjury.


DMCA Takedown Notice


If someone else is using your copyrighted content in an unauthorized manner on Decentral Publishing, please send an email notification to [email protected]. You may include an attachment if you like, but please also include a plain-text version of your letter in the body of your message. Please include the following

information into the notice:


To submit a notice of claimed copyright infringement, you will need to provide us with the following

information:

  • A physical or electronic signature (typing your full name will suffice) of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf;
  • ​Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (e.g., a link to your original work or clear description of the materials allegedly being infringed upon);
  • ​ Identification of the infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to permit Twitter to locate the material on our website or services;
  • ​Your contact information, including your address, telephone number, and an email address;
  • ​A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner asserted is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  • ​A statement that the information in the complaint is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
If you must send your notice by physical mail, you can do that too, but it will take substantially longer for us to receive and respond to it. Notices we receive via plain-text email have a much faster turnaround than PDF attachments or physical mail. If you still wish to mail us your notice, our physical address is:


Attention Legal Department

DMCA Notice

Mastermind

2225 N. Scottsdale Road

Scottsdale, Arizona 85287


By submitting a DMCA notice via our form, email, or physical mail, you acknowledge that a copy of your DMCA submission disclosing all information provided may be shared with the accused party.


DMCA Counter Notice


If you believe your content on Mastermind was mistakenly disabled by a DMCA takedown request, you have the right to contest the takedown by submitting a counter notice. Before you begin, please ensure that you can answer the requirements for DMCA counter notifications.


You may also submit a counter notice by e-mail or physical mail, as set forth above
