1.Summary

a. Clubs: As a Member of The Stack, you can choose to support specific Members (“Creators”) who have created clubs (“Clubs”) on The Stack World to provide content, materials and information (“Club Content”) and to organise and host events (“Events”) for Members of the Stack in relation to specific subject matters. Each Creator decides on the scope and subject matter of the Clubs, Events and Club Content they create and provide. You can sign up to join a Club on the Stack Platform by pressing the ‘Buy Pass” button when viewing the detail of any club available on the Stack Platform. You are responsible for ensuring that your request is complete and accurate before submitting it. A contract is formed at that time between you The Stack in relation to your membership of, access to and attendance at Clubs, Club Content and Events via The Stack World, in accordance with and subject to these Club Pass Terms of Use and the General Terms of Service.

b. Events. Each Creator decides on the subject matter, format, time, date, location and frequency of Events organised for Members of their Clubs. If you are a member of a Club, you can request to attend an Event organised by that Club by clicking the “RSVP Now” or similar button on the event details page.

c. How Events occur. Some Events will occur face-to-face in real life, and others will be virtual. Details of each Event will be made available to you at the time the Event is booked, however Creators may change the details of Events if they think it’s appropriate or necessary, for example if Covid-19 restrictions make face-to-face Events impractical or illegal. The relevant Creator will send you details of the Event, and how to join it, prior to the Event occurring. We are not responsible for the conduct of any Events, and they will not occur on or via The Stack World.

d. No Reliance: You should not rely solely on information and advice available through a Club, Club Content or Event. Such information and advice is not provided or verified by The Stack. You acknowledge and agree that information, advice and content made available on or through any Club, Club Content or Event is provided for general information purposes only and not as a substitute for medical or other professional advice. Unless otherwise specified, all Club Content is presented solely for your private, personal and non-commercial use. If accessing any Club, Club Content or Event infringes any applicable law in your jurisdiction(s), you are not authorised to access or use the relevant Club, Club Content or Event and you must cease such access and use immediately.

e. Modifications to Service: Access to Clubs, Club Content and Events is permitted on a temporary basis. The Stack reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, any Clubs, Club Contents or Events (or any part of them) with or without notice. You agree that The Stack will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance any Clubs, Club Contents or Events.

2.Your Account and Responsibilities

a. Registration: You must be a Member of The Stack (FREE or Paid) in order to join Clubs, access Club Content, and attend Events. You agree to provide and maintain true, accurate and current information about yourself as prompted by The Stack World. If you choose not to provide any information requested via The Stack World, you acknowledge and agree that you may not be able to use or benefit from certain features of Clubs, Club Content and Events. Information you submit via the “Personal Profile” form, and certain other information about you, are governed by our Privacy Policy, available at thestack.world/privacy. If you are under 16 years of age, you are not authorised to join Clubs, or access Club Content or Events. Some Clubs and Events may require you to be 18 years of age to join and/or attend them (as applicable). If you are under 18 years of age, you will not be permitted to join the relevant Clubs and/or attend the relevant Events. You must also have a valid credit or debit card that you’re entitled to use, and that we accept, or an account to use one of the third party payment services we use from time to time, and you must not previously have had any account on The Stack disabled or terminated for any violation of law or our terms of use or policies.

b. Your Responsibilities: It is your sole responsibility to include accurate information in the ‘Your Profile’ form. If you fail to disclose such information to the relevant Creator or Club, then to the extent permitted by law, neither we nor the Creator or Club will be liable for any injury, loss or damage you suffer as a result of or in connection with any services, advice or information provided by the Club or Creator, or during an Event, or that otherwise arises out of or in connection with your failure to disclose that information. It is your responsibility to confirm you are able to attend Events at the time and location they are occurring. It is also your responsibility to ensure your equipment (computer, laptop, netbook, tablet or other mobile device) meets the necessary technical specifications to enable you to attend any virtual Events. We will not refund any amounts paid by you for an Event if you cannot attend an Event because your equipment didn’t meet the necessary technical specifications.

3.Fees

a. The fees for joining each Club (“Pass Fees”) and/or for attending any Event (“Event Fees”) will be made available to you at the time you choose to join a Club or sign up for an Event. All Pass Fees for membership of a Club are payable monthly in advance. Pass Fees include VAT. Your membership of a Club will start on the day you sign up, and will continue until terminated by you or us in accordance with these Club Pass Terms of Use. Pass Fees will be charged to your payment method on the specific payment date indicated on the “Account” page of your The Stack account, or otherwise communicated to you. During the first month of your subscription to a Club (“Club Subscription”), the Pass Fees for that Club will be paid on a pro rata basis. In some cases your payment date may change, for example if your payment method has not successfully settled, when you change your membership plan or if your paid membership began on a day not contained in a given month. Visit our website and click into your account area to see your next payment date.

b. Fees for Events. We require pre-payment of all Event Fees to secure a booking for an Event organised by a Creator or Club. The Event Fees payable for the Event will be shown at the time you book your place at the Event. We may change the Event Fees charged for Events at any time, however any changes will not apply to Events booked before the change comes into effect. Event Fees include VAT.

c. Payments. You agree to make all payments for all Pass Fees and Event Fees and authorise us to charge any payment method associated to your account in advance on a periodic basis in accordance with these Club Pass Terms of Use, until your membership of the relevant Clubs and/or Events is terminated. Payments of all Pass Fees and Event Fees are made through Stripe. Stripe is a third party payment provider, and your payment will be processed by Stripe and their terms of use will apply. Stripe’s terms will be made available to you at the time you place your booking request. Payment is made directly to The Stack acting as commercial agent on behalf of the Creators only. We are authorised by the Creators to accept payment on their behalf and payment of the Pass Fees and Event Fees to us will fulfil your obligation to pay the relevant Pass Fees or Event Fees to the Creators in respect of your membership of the relevant Club and/or attendance at the relevant Event. We may change Stripe for another third party payment provider or a different payment method at any time. We will give you at least thirty (30) days’ notice of this. In addition to the Pass Fees and Event Fees, we may charge fees for the services we provide. These additional fees will be shown on the checkout pages before you purchase a pass to a Club and/or Event. Unless you cancel your membership to a Club before your billing date, you authorise us to charge the Subscription Fees for the next billing cycle to your payment method. You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. If you dispute any charges you must let us know within sixty (60) days after the date that we charge you. You are responsible for all taxes associated with your membership of and access to Clubs, Club Content and Events, other than taxes based on our and/or the relevant Creators’ net income. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not cancel your pass to a Club, we may suspend your access to the relevant Clubs, Club Content and Events until we have successfully received payment in full via a valid payment method. For some payment methods, the issuer may charge you certain fees, such as foreign transaction fees or other fees relating to the processing of your payment method. Check with your payment method service provider for details. You can update your payment methods by going to the "Account" page. We may also update your payment methods using information provided by the payment service providers. Following any update, you authorise us to continue to charge the applicable payment methods.

d. Changes to Pass Fees. We or the relevant Creators may change Pass Fees and Event Fees from time to time; however, any changes to Pass Fees and Event Fees will apply no earlier than 30 days following notice to you. If we or a Creator increase any Pass Fees or Event Fees and you don’t agree to the change, you may cancel your membership of the relevant Clubs and we will refund to you any fees paid for a period of your Subscription Term after the date you cancel.

e. Renewal of Pass Fees. Membership of a Club will automatically renew at the end of each Subscription Term for the same period of time, until you cancel your membership, or we terminate it, in accordance with these Club Pass Terms of Use.

4.The Creator’s Role

a. The Creator’s Role. Each Creator is solely responsible for any advice or information given to you on the page for a Club, in any Club Content, or during an Event. By its nature, any information given on the page for a Club, in any Club Content or during an Event will be generic, and not tailored to your specific needs.

5.The Stack’s Role

a. When you join a Club or book an Event organised by a Club, we act as an agent on behalf of the Creator who runs the relevant Club (and its Events), to conclude your request from The Stack World and to manage your experience throughout the process. Once you have submitted an RSVP and we have accepted your payment (if applicable), a contract will be formed between you and The Stack with respect to your membership of the Club and/or attendance at the relevant Event(s), on and subject to the terms of these Club Pass Terms of Use. We will send you an email or other notification confirming your membership of the Club and attendance at Events organised by the Club.

b. We act as a commercial agent for the Creators whose Clubs and Events you may join and attend. The Creators will provide the services during and constituting the Club and / or Events, not us. It is the Creators’ responsibility to organise and run Clubs and Events and we simply provide the platform that helps you book and join Clubs and Events with the Creator(s) of your choosing, and we take payment on their behalf. We make efforts to verify but cannot warrant or guarantee a Creator’s purported identity or credentials. For these reasons, we cannot and do not represent, warrant or guarantee the accuracy of the credentials or the identities of the Creators, or any particular level of knowledge or expertise. You acknowledge and agree that to the extent permitted by law, The Stack is not responsible for, and will not be liable for, any loss or damage arising out of or in connection with any Clubs, Club Content, or Events.

6.Cancellation Rights

a. You can cancel your membership of a Club at any time, and you will continue to have access to the Club until the end of your Club Subscription Term for the relevant Club.

b. Subject to paragraph (c) below, all Pass Fees, Event Fees and other payments in respect of your access to a Club and attendance at Events are non-refundable. To cancel, go to the "Club" page and “Leave the club” from the option. If you cancel your membership to a Club, your account will automatically close at the end of the pass term for your membership of that Club.

c. If you are a consumer in the European Union or the United Kingdom, consumer laws give you a right to change your mind and cancel your pass to a Club within 14 days of the date your pass to the Club started (“Cooling Off Period”). If you wish to exercise this right of cancellation, you must inform us of your decision within this Cooling Off Period (please use the Cancellation Form or contact us). If you cancel your pass to a Club within your Cooling Off Period, you must pay us for the period of your pass to the Club up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind. We will refund the Pass Fees paid to us, less an amount to compensate us for the period of your pass to a Club before you cancelled your pass (we calculate this as a daily rate based on the fees for the entire Pass Subscription Term). We will make this refund no later than 14 days after the day on which you told us you were cancelling your pass, using the same payment method as you used to pay your Pass Fees. If an Event booking is made for a date before the Cooling Off period expires, your booking is an express request to the Creator to provide the services you have requested within the cancellation period. If you decide to cancel your attendance at an Event, you may still be charged for any services supplied until we are informed of your decision. In addition to your consumer rights, you may cancel or reschedule your Event and receive a full refund if you cancel up to 24 hours before the Event time. If you cancel an Event within 24 hours of the scheduled Event time, you will not be entitled to any refund of the Event Fees.

d. If you are late or fail to turn up. If you fail to attend an Event or are late to a booked Event, you will not be entitled to a refund of the fees paid for the Event.

7.Our Rights to Terminate

a. Our Rights to Suspend or Cancel Your Club Pass. We may terminate or suspend your pass to a Club, or stop providing all or any part of the Club, Club Content, or Events, at any time in our discretion, with or without notice, including (but not limited to) if we believe that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Club Pass Terms of Use, you have applied for refunds to which we do not believe you are entitled, or we believe you have acted fraudulently, abusively or illegally. If we suspend access to your Membership of The Stack World generally under our General Terms of Service (available here) or Membership Terms (available here), such suspension or termination will automatically suspend or terminate your access to all Clubs, Club Content and Events. If we suspend or terminate your pass to a Club for any reason except your breach of these Club Pass Terms of Use or our General Terms of Service or Membership Terms, we will refund any Pass Fees that relate to the period after the date the termination takes effect, or we will suspend payment under your payment plan until your pass to the Club is reinstated (as applicable). We don’t need to give you notice before we exercise our rights under this Clause 7(a), but we might choose to give you a warning.

b. Our rights to cancel an Event. Sometimes we or a Creator might need to cancel or reschedule an Event. We and the Creator may notify you that an Event needs to be cancelled or rescheduled at any time before the scheduled Event time. You will not be charged for any Events cancelled by us or an Creator, or cancelled by you if we notified you that the Event needed to be rescheduled, and we will reimburse you for any Event Fees paid using the same method you used to pay for your Event.

8.Intellectual Property Rights

a. Service Content, Software and Trademarks. You acknowledge and agree that Clubs (including any Club Content or Events) may contain content or features that are protected by copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights and laws. Except as expressly authorised by The Stack or the relevant Creator, you agree not to modify, copy, reverse engineer, reverse assemble or otherwise attempt to discover any source code in any Club or Club Content, or to frame, scrape, rent, lease, loan, sell, assign, sublicense, distribute or create derivative works based on, or otherwise transfer any right or interest in any Club or Club Content, in whole or in part.

The technology and software underlying any Club or Club Content or distributed in connection therewith are the property of The Stack, the relevant Creators, or its or our affiliates and licensors.

b. Your Contributions. Any comments, information or other data or material (including reviews) that you submit to a Club and/or Event (“Contributions”) (including via any chat functionality, or posted on a Club wall) will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary. If any such materials are protected by intellectual property rights, you grant us and the relevant Creators a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, copy, modify, distribute, sell and disclose them to third parties for any purpose related to our or their business.
