(“Mentor Mentee”).

Should you use our Mentor Mentee app on an Apple/iOS device the App Store Terms also apply. If you use our Mentor Mentee app on an Android device the Google Play store Terms also apply.
- Each time you access or use Mentor Mentee’s Services including, but not limited to, Mentor Mentee Assessments, Courses, and Training, you represent that you have read and understand Mentor Mentee’s Privacy Policy; and that you agree to the Terms of Use then in effect. And by accepting these Terms of Use, you also understand and consent to Mentor Mentee’s Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into this agreement. Our Privacy Policy describes how Mentor Mentee collects, uses, and shares information.
- YOUR USE OR ACCESS OF ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICES CONSTITUTES YOUR UNCONDITIONAL AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF USE, AS MAY BE AMENDED. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO USE OR ACCESS THE SERVICES.
- By accepting these Terms of Use, you understand and agree that, as stated in the mandatory Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver, you are waiving your right to resolve any dispute through other processes that could be available to you, such as court actions or administrative proceedings. It also means that you are waiving your rights to a trial by jury or to combine your dispute with others in a class action.
- The Services are neither targeted to, nor intended to be used by, anyone under the age of 13 years. Any use or access by anyone under the age of 13 is prohibited.
- If you are at least 13 years old, but not yet 18 years old (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction), then you may not access or use the Services unless and until you review these terms with your parent or guardian, and they must understand and agree to these terms in order for you to use the Services. If you and your parent or guardian do not agree to these terms, then you must immediately stop using the Services and request that Mentor Mentee close any online account you may have created. You can request account deletion by sending an email to info@MentorMentee.com. Please include the email address of the account that you want deleted.
- Each of the terms of these Terms of Use are severable and operate separately. If any of them are deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the remaining terms and conditions will remain in full force and effect.

- Use. You agree not to (a) use or access the Services for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these Terms of Use; (b) use or access the Services in a manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair any Mentor Mentee computer system or the networks connected to any Mentor Mentee computer system; (c) interfere with any third party’s use and enjoyment of the Services; or (d) attempt to gain unauthorized access to accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to any Mentor Mentee computer system through hacking, password mining, or any other means.
- License. Mentor Mentee hereby grants a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license (“License”) to the specific users and for the specific Services for which purchased subscription access is required and/or those specific Services for which specific users have affirmatively been given access to by Mentor Mentee (the “Licensees”). This License is not a sale. The Services are intended for Licensee’s business use only and may not be resold or used in any other way without express written consent from Mentor Mentee.

Businesses or schools with multiple campuses or facilities must purchase a separate site License for each Location to which Licensee wants users to have access to the Services. Providing access to individuals at multiple Locations within one site License is a material violation of the site License and these Terms of Use.
- User Licenses: If Licensee has purchased or receives a user License, that License allows a single user to access the Services. Licensee agrees that a user License shall be for one specific location or specified individual and recognizes that sharing a user License between unauthorized or multiple users is a material violation of the user License and these Terms of Use.
- Obligations of Licensees.
- Licensee agrees to promptly pay all charges related to Licensee’s subscription(s) to the Services.

- No Waiver or Assignment. No delay or failure to take action under this License or these Terms of Use will constitute a waiver unless expressly waived in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Mentor Mentee, and no single waiver will constitute a continuing or subsequent waiver. This License may not be assigned, sublicensed, or otherwise transferred by Licensee, by operation of law or otherwise; PROVIDED HOWEVER that Licensee may assign this License upon written notice to Mentor Mentee in instances in which such assignment is to an entity which acquires all or substantially all of the business of Licensee, whether by merger, consolidation, or acquisition of assets.

- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
- UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL MENTOR MENTEE, ANY OF ITS EMPLOYEES, OWNERS, OFFICERS, OR AGENTS, OR ITS AFFILIATES, THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS, BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION AND THE LIKE, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, WORK STOPPAGE, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, OR COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, EVEN IF MENTOR MENTEE OR ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

- Excused performance by MENTOR MENTEE. An event in which Mentor Mentee is unable to perform its obligations hereunder as a result of any event or contingency that is beyond Mentor Mentee’s reasonable control. This includes, but is not limited to any act of God, war, riot, law, regulation, court order, injunction, national emergency, terrorist act, general embargo, fire, casualty, equipment failure, failure by a third party, flood, earthquake or other similar occurrence, failure or slow speed of the internet, unanticipated systems outage or failure, or any other unforeseeable event the occurrence of which is beyond Mentor Mentee’s reasonable control. In the event of such an occurrence, Mentor Mentee shall be excused from its obligation to perform hereunder for the duration of the event in question and for a reasonable time thereafter to permit resumption of normal operations.
- Dispute Resolution (the “Arbitration Agreement”). Please read this section carefully. It directly affects your rights and will have a direct impact on how claims will be resolved relating to your information, your use of or access to the Services, these Terms of Use, or MENTOR MENTEE’s Privacy Policy.
- Arbitration Agreement. Any dispute or claim arising from or relating to your use of or access to the Services, disclosure or safekeeping of your information, these Terms of Use, or Mentor Mentee’s Privacy Policy, is subject to binding arbitration rather than in court (the “Arbitration Agreement”). This Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”).
- Except to the extent inconsistent with the FAA or preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of Kansas will govern these Terms of Use and Mentor Mentee’s Privacy Policy, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
- In (and only in) the event that this Arbitration Agreement is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, the parties agree that the sole and exclusive venue for any dispute arising hereunder shall be in a court located in Johnson County, Kansas, and, in (and only in) that event the parties hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of such court and irrevocably waive any and all objections which any party may have to process being served in any such suit, action, or proceeding pursuant to the rules of the applicable court, including, without limitation, service by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.
- Jury Trial Waiver. In all circumstances, each party hereby knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waives (to the full extent permitted by applicable law) any right it may have to a trial by jury of any dispute arising under or relating to your use of or access to the Services, these Terms of Use, or Mentor Mentee’s Privacy Policy.
- Arbitration Procedures. 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 an arbitrator must also follow these Terms of Use as a court would.
- All issues are for the arbitrator to decide. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the rules of the American Arbitration Association for consumer-related disputes.
- Class Waiver. You and Mentor Mentee agree that each may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, representative, or private attorney general action or proceeding. Unless both you and Mentor Mentee agree otherwise in a separate writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person’s or party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative, class, or private attorney general action or proceeding.
- The arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s individual claim or claims. Any relief awarded cannot affect other users of the Services or other parties to the Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy.
- Severability. If any part of these Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the balance shall remain in full effect.
Modification of These Terms of Use. Mentor Mentee reserves the right to change, modify, amend, and/or update these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy at any time with or without prior notice. Your use of the Services following any such changes, modifications, amendments, and/or updates constitutes your unconditional agreement to follow and be bound by these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy as so changed. You are responsible for reviewing these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy each time you use or access any portion of these Services.
