1.6. For all purposes related to these Terms, the place of supply of the Services shall be the United States of America ("USA"). The provision of the Services does not constitute the establishment of a permanent establishment (PE) of the Contractor in any jurisdiction outside the United States.

2. ELIGIBILITY AND PROFESSIONAL GROUPS

2.2. The Services are designed for C-level executives and professionals at global level. To be eligible, you shall successfully complete an interview with a group lead, during which we shall assess, in our sole discretion, your C-level status and alignment with the goals of our community.

2.3. Both individuals and legal entities may subscribe. You may add up to two (2) team members (e.g., colleagues or assistants) to your subscription at no additional cost by providing their email addresses to the Contractor. You are responsible for the actions of any team members added to your subscription, including their compliance with these Terms.

2.4. We reserve the absolute right to refuse admission to the Services to any individual or entity for any reason or no reason, without obligation to provide explanation or justification.

3. SUBSCRIPTION AND PAYMENT
3.1. Services are provided on a subscription basis, which may include recurring monthly payments, one-time payments, or long-term subscription plans (e.g., quarterly or annual), collectively referred to as “Fees”. The applicable Fee and payment terms shall be communicated to you during the interview with your group manager or through other official communication channels before confirming your enrollment.

You shall provide accurate and valid payment information (e.g., a personal debit/credit card for individuals or a corporate card or invoice for legal entities) and authorize us to charge such a method via a payment link provided to you.

3.3. Your subscription shall renew automatically each month unless terminated as provided herein. Fees shall be debited from the payment method you provide, and receipts shall be sent to your designated email address. You acknowledge and agree that we do not send renewal reminders or notifications before the subscription renewal charge is processed.

3.4. We reserve the right to adjust Fees at our sole discretion upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice sent via email or communicated by your group manager through electronic communication channels. Your continued use of the Services following such adjustment shall constitute your acceptance of the revised Fees.

3.5. Legal entities may request invoicing, with payment due within five (5) calendar days of invoice receipt.

3.6. The cost of Services shall not include Value Added Tax (VAT) unless VAT is expressly required by applicable law, in which case any applicable VAT shall be added to the Fees and separately identified on invoices or payment documentation. Customers are solely responsible for determining, reporting, and fulfilling any VAT or other tax obligations that may apply in their own country or jurisdiction unless otherwise required by applicable law. The Contractor shall not be liable for any tax compliance or payments required by the Customer’s local laws.

3.7. The Contractor shall not be liable for any tax compliance or payments required by the Customer’s local laws. All Fees indicated in invoices or other payment documentation are deemed net of any applicable withholding or income taxes. The Customer shall be solely responsible for the assessment, withholding, and remittance of any such taxes required by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Customer is located. Under no circumstances shall any withholding or similar tax reduce the amount payable to the Contractor, and the Customer shall gross up the payment as necessary to ensure that the Contractor receives the full Fee amount invoiced.

3.8. All Fees indicated in invoices or other payment documentation are deemed net of any applicable withholding or income taxes. The Customer shall be solely responsible for the assessment, withholding, and remittance of any such taxes required by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Customer is located.

3.9. All payments shall be made in U.S. dollars (USD). If your payment method is in a currency other than USD, you shall bear all costs associated with currency conversion, including but not limited to exchange rate fluctuations and bank fees, and we shall not be liable for any discrepancies resulting therefrom.

The Platform shall be hosted on Notion or such other tools as we may determine in our sole discretion.

5. EVENTS AND PARTICIPATION
5.1. You shall be entitled to participate in all real-time Events, including both general sessions and those specific to your Professional Group, conducted via Zoom or similar platforms, at no additional cost.

Alternatively, you may elect to pay an increased Fee, as determined by us in our sole discretion, in lieu of meeting these participation requirements. Should you fail to maintain active participation, as determined at our sole discretion, including but not limited to not organizing an Event or engaging in group activities, your subscription Fee shall be adjusted to double the standard rate, effective thirty (30) days following written notice sent via email to your registered email address.

5.5. You warrant that all content you provide for Events complies with applicable laws (including but not limited to U.S. federal and state laws) and does not infringe any third-party rights, including intellectual property rights.
