This Membership Agreement (“Membership Agreement”) is entered into by and between And Then, LLC (d/b/a “Glue Club”) (“Glue Club” or “we” or “us”) and the individual accepting the Membership Agreement (“Member” or “you” or “your”). This Membership Agreement governs your membership with Glue Club (“Membership”) and any other services offered by us during your Membership (“Services”).
This Membership Agreement is effective as of the date of commencement of your Membership.
This Membership Agreement incorporates by reference the Glue Club Terms of Use found at https://www.glueclub.com/terms-of-use, the Glue Club Community Guidelines found at https://www.glueclub.com/community-guidelines and the Glue Club Privacy Policy found at https://www.glueclub.com/privacy-policy, all of which, collectively with this Membership Agreement, constitutes this “Agreement”). If there is any conflict between the Membership Agreement and any other document comprising this Agreement, the provisions of the Membership Agreement will govern and control.
1. Eligibility and Representations. This Agreement begins upon the earlier of your first use of the Services or commencement of your Membership as set forth in Section 7 below. When this Agreement begins, you represent and warrant to Glue Club that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by this Agreement.
2. Membership Benefits. Glue Club offers the membership levels described on our website. Memberships are granted to individuals and are non-transferable to any third party. The membership benefits and opportunities available to members at various levels are listed here: https://www.glueclub.com/members/member-benefits. Glue Club may offer additional membership benefits periodically or change the membership benefits at any time, in its sole discretion.
3. Live Events. From time to time throughout the year, Glue Club may host live, in-person events at third-party locations (“Live Events”). All Members are invited to attend Live Events, provided that Live Events may be subject to limited capacity, and availability of Live Events is not guaranteed. The cost of some Live Events may not be included in your Membership, and you may incur additional fees for any event you elect to join (“Event Fees”). You will also be required to sign a Waiver and Release in order to participate in each Live Event. If you take any photos or video recordings at any Live Event, we encourage you to seek permission from other Members before posting publicly and to speak up if you do not want a picture or video of you posted by another Member.
4. Member Referrals. You may refer potential new members to Glue Club at any time, and we encourage you to do so. You acknowledge and agree that all membership decisions are at the sole discretion of Glue Club. If someone you refer is accepted to Glue Club and enrolls in an upcoming cohort, you will receive a credit per referral that may be used exclusively toward future Glue Club events, Membership Fees or other Glue Club activities. Any referral credit must be used within 12 months of the date of issuance, and referral credits will expire at the end of 12 months. The amount of the credit will be announced on our website and may be changed from time to time in Glue Club’s discretion.
5. Community Guidelines. You are required to abide by our Community Guidelines as a condition of your Membership. We may update the Community Guidelines from time to time and will post the updated Guidelines at www.glueclub.com/community-guidelines.
6. Event Recordings. Glue Club may record live virtual events and may make the recordings available to Glue Club Members. When you participate in a live virtual event, you agree to such recording and consent to appear in such recording. You further acknowledge and agree that event recordings are made available to you only for your personal use during the term of your Membership, and you will not distribute any event recordings to any person who is not a Member and will not otherwise publicly share any event recordings.
7. Term and Renewal. Your initial Membership period will commence on the date of Glue Club’s receipt of your payment of the Membership Fee (defined below) and will remain in effect for 6 months thereafter. Your Membership will automatically renew, at the same level, on a recurring basis for additional 6 months terms, unless you cancel in accordance with Section 10 of this Agreement.
8. Membership Fee. Your Membership is subject to payment of a 6-month or 12-month membership fee as established by Glue Club from time to time (“Membership Fee”). All Memberships commence on either February 1 or August 1, and the initial term of your Membership will be pro-rated to align with the next renewal date. Glue Club reserves the right to adjust the Membership Fee in its sole discretion, and any increase will be applicable to you upon your next renewal term. You will be advised of any increase in the
Membership Fee prior to your next renewal date. Membership Fees are not refundable and will not be pro-rated upon an early termination of this Agreement, whether voluntary or involuntary. Financial assistance in the form of a payment plan may be considered and extended to select members if requested. In such a payment plan, the full fee shall be divided into equal payments due at the beginning of the membership term and thereafter in accordance with the agreed payment plan. Members on a payment plan must commit to pay and are liable for the full Membership Fee for the entire Membership term and may not cancel mid-term.
9. Payment. All Membership Fees are payable in full, in advance, and Event Fees are payable in accordance with the terms announced in connection with each Live Event. You must provide Glue Club with a valid method of payment as specified by Glue Club (valid methods are referred to as the “Payment Provider”). By providing your payment details, you accept and consent to being charged fees in the form requested by Glue Club, and no additional notice or consent is required.
10. Third-Party Payment Processor. Glue Club uses a third-party payment processor (currently Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”)) (“Payment Processor”) to process payment of your Membership fees and any Event Fees. By purchasing a Membership, you agree to be bound by Stripe’s terms and conditions, including the Stripe Privacy Policy, and you hereby consent and authorize Glue Club and/or Stripe to share any information and payment instructions you provide with Payment Providers to the minimum extent required to complete your transactions. We reserve the right to change and/or add payment processing options without prior notice.
11. Membership Cancellation. You may cancel your Membership at any time by emailing hello@glueclub.com with a cancellation request. You may use your Membership until the end of your then-current term, but you will not be refunded any portion of the Membership Fees paid for the then-current Membership term.
12. Termination. Glue Club may suspend or terminate your Membership at any time upon notice to you for any of the following reasons: (a) if you fail to comply with the terms of the Agreement, (b) if you violate the Community Guidelines, (c) if you fail to pay fees when due, and (d) if any of your conduct is found to be in conflict with the interests or values of Glue Club.
13. Use of Personal Information. You agree that Glue Club may store the personal information you provide for use in connection with your Membership, including, but not limited to, your contact and payment details. We may collect, use and/or share your personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy, including with other Glue Club members. You shall not use any personal information provided to you by another member of Glue Club without their express permission. You hereby waive any claim against Glue Club arising from any third party’s use of your personal information, and you hereby release Glue Club from any and all liability arising from any such claim, except to the extent that Glue Club is not in compliance with the Privacy Policy.
14. Publicity Release. From time to time during your Membership, Glue Club may film, record or photograph you participating in events and activities of Glue Club. You hereby grant Glue Club and its affiliates, successors, assigns, licensees, agents and representatives permission to use your name, biographical information, photo/likeness, quotes, and any audio and video materials in which you are included in print, broadcast, online, digital or other media (including social media and mobile platforms), whether now known or hereafter devised, throughout the world, in perpetuity, in connection with membership programs, advertising, promotions, public relations and other commercial and business purposes, without further authorization, right of review or compensation. Such use shall not include any use that disparages, defames, discredits or otherwise portrays you in a negative light or that causes you harm. You may revoke this authorization on a going-forward basis at any time upon written notice to Glue Club, but in no event shall Glue Club be required to remove your name, biographical information, photo/likeness or delete any audio or video in which you appear from materials which were published or distributed prior to the effective date of your notice.
15. Trademarks, Use of Name. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a license or permission for you to use any trade name, trademark, logo or trade dress of Glue Club. You may identify yourself as a current member of Glue Club during the term of your active membership; otherwise, all other use of Glue Club’s trade name, trademark, logo or trade dress without our prior written consent is expressly prohibited, including, without limitation, issuances of any press release, public announcement or disparaging remarks.
16. Intellectual Property. Glue Club retains all right, title and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to any content, materials, audio, video, trade name, trademark, logo or trade dress, and other forms of intellectual property which may be provided to you in connection with your participant in membership activities. Except as expressly granted in this Agreement, your Membership does not give you any ownership of or license to any intellectual property rights of Glue Club. Any unauthorized use of any intellectual property of Glue Club is strictly prohibited and violates copyright, trademark and/or other intellectual property laws, and/or the laws of privacy, publicity, and/or communications regulations and statutes.
17. Confidentiality. In connection with your Membership, you may receive or have access to Confidential Information of Glue Club. “Confidential Information” means non-public information in any form or medium (whether oral, written, electronic, or other) that Glue Club treats as confidential or proprietary, including, but not limited to, information that pertains to Glue Club’s business, services or members, whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as "confidential." Confidential Information also includes the identity of each member and related information such as their email addresses, contact information and employment information. You agree not to access or use Confidential Information for any purpose outside of your Membership benefits and not to disclose or permit access to Confidential Information. You agree to safeguard the Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access or disclosure, using at least the degree of care you use to protect your own similarly sensitive information, and in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. If you are compelled by law to disclose any Confidential Information, then to the extent permitted by law, you shall: (i) promptly, and prior to such disclosure, notify Glue Club in writing of such requirement so that Glue Club may seek a protective order or other remedy, or waive its rights under this Agreement, and (ii) provide reasonable assistance to Glue Club, at Glue Club’s sole cost and expense, in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure. If you are required by law to disclose any Confidential Information, you shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that, on the advice of Glue Club’s legal counsel, you are legally required to disclose and, upon your request, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurances from the applicable court or other presiding authority that such Confidential Information will be afforded confidential treatment
18. Indemnification. You shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Glue Club, its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, action, claim or expense suffered or incurred by any of the foregoing parties (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses of litigation) arising out of any claim brought by a third party against an indemnified party and arising out of any cause of action relating to your breach of this Agreement, gross negligence or willful misconduct.
19. Disclaimer. MEMBERSHIP IN GLUE CLUB AND ANY AND ALL SERVICES PROVIDED BY GLUE CLUB ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. PARTICIPATION IN ANY EVENTS SPONSORED BY GLUE CLUB IS ENTIRELY AT THE RISK OF THE MEMBER. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GLUE CLUB HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO MEMBERSHIP AND GLUE CLUB’S SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR USAGE IN TRADE, ALL OF WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED.
20. Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL GLUE CLUB OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE FOR (A) ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE, OR (B) ANY DIRECT DAMAGES EXCEEDING THE MEMBERSHIP FEE PAID IN THE LAST SIX (6) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT WHICH GIVES RISE TO THE CLAIM, IN EACH CASE WHETHER ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WHETHER ARISING UNDER TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHER LAW, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER GLUE CLUB KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE LAWS OF SOME STATES AND JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW FOR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU AND YOU MIGHT HAVE OTHER RIGHTS. WE DO NOT LIMIT OR EXCLUDE LIABILITY WHERE IT WOULD BE UNLAWFUL TO DO SO.
21. Choice of Law; Arbitration; Waiver of Class Actions and Jury Trial. THIS SECTION 20 CONTAINS PROVISIONS GOVERNING HOW DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND GLUE CLUB WILL BE RESOLVED. AMONG OTHER THINGS, THIS SECTION 20 INCLUDES AN AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, WHICH REQUIRES, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND GLUE CLUB BE RESOLVED BY BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION. THIS SECTION 20 ALSO CONTAINS A CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER.
a. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California (without regard to any conflicts of laws principles thereof that would give effect to the laws of another jurisdiction), and any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or Employee’s employment, other than injunctive relief, will be settled exclusively by arbitration, conducted before a single arbitrator in San Francisco, CA, in accordance with, and pursuant to, the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).
b. The arbitrator shall have the power to take interim measures, and to rule on such arbitrator’s own jurisdiction, including on any objections with respect to the existence, scope or validity of this arbitration clause.
c. The arbitration shall be conducted on a strictly confidential basis, and neither party shall disclose the existence of a claim, the nature of a claim, any documents, exhibits, or information exchanged or presented in connection with such a claim, or the result of any action (collectively, “Arbitration Materials”), to any third party, except as required by law, with the sole exception of their legal counsel and parties engaged by that counsel to assist in the arbitration process, who also shall be bound by these confidentiality terms.
d. The arbitrator shall be authorized to issue any award, relief or other remedy which a court of competent jurisdiction would be entitled to issue. The arbitrator shall issue a written decision, which decision shall include a statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which any arbitral award is based. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the parties hereto.
e. Any arbitral award may be entered as a judgment or order in any court of competent jurisdiction. Either party may commence litigation in court to obtain injunctive relief in aid of arbitration, to compel arbitration, or to confirm or vacate an award, to the extent authorized by the Federal Arbitration Act or applicable state law. The parties agree to take all steps necessary to protect the confidentiality of the Arbitration Materials in connection with any such proceeding, agree to file all Confidential Information (and documents containing Confidential Information) under seal, and agree to the entry of an appropriate protective order encompassing the confidentiality terms of this Agreement.
f. The parties shall equally split the AAA administrative fees and the arbitrator’s fee and expenses. Each party shall be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees and costs (including experts’ fees).
g. All claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement must be brought in an individual capacity and shall not be brought by either party as a plaintiff, claimant, class representative or class member in any purported class action, collective action, or representative proceeding, nor joined or consolidated with any claims of any other person or entity. Accordingly, each party waives and releases any and all right or rights to initiate and/or participate as a class member in any class action, collective action, or representative proceeding involving the other party.
h. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER NOW OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, AND AGREE THAT EITHER PARTY MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, IRREVOCABLY, TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN SUCH PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT ANY PROCEEDING PROPERLY HEARD BY A COURT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

e. Non-Waiver. Failure by either party to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or delay in exercising or failure to exercise any rights or remedies provided in this Agreement, shall not release the other party from any of the obligations of this Agreement and shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights of such other party to insist upon strict performance thereof.
f. No Agency. This Agreement does not make, and shall not be deemed to make, either party the agent or legal representative of the other for any purpose. Neither party shall have, or hold itself out as having, the right or authority to assume or create any obligations or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf of or in the name of the other, or to bind the other in any respect.
g. Severability. If any provision contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held unenforceable in any respect, such unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
