TERMS OF USE & GENERAL TERMS OF SERVICE
These Terms govern use of ChiefImpleMentor.com, Chiefi.com, FiveYearLife.com and other websites, publications, digital resources, communications, products and services that link to or incorporate these Terms.
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY
By accessing, browsing or using a Covered Site or by requesting, purchasing, receiving, downloading, registering for, subscribing to or otherwise using Covered Content, a Product or a Service, you acknowledge these Terms and agree to comply with them to the extent permitted by applicable law.
If you do not agree with these Terms, do not use the applicable Covered Site, Covered Content, Product or Service.
1. WHO “WE” ARE
For purposes of these Terms, the “Company Group” means, collectively where appropriate, Robert Lee Goodman individually, Goodman Group, Inc., CEO RESOURCE LLC and Good-Man LLC, together with the applicable entity’s divisions, trade names, brands, authorized licensees, successors and assigns.
References to “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” are used for convenience and do not merge these persons or entities into one legal entity. Each individual, corporation and limited liability company remains legally separate.
The person or entity identified in an applicable Statement of Work, invoice, checkout page, order, publishing agreement, license, copyright notice or other transaction document is the contracting party or rights-holding party for that particular transaction unless the applicable document expressly provides otherwise.
Nothing on a Covered Site should be interpreted as making one Company Group member automatically liable for the contractual obligations, debts or liabilities of another Company Group member merely because of common ownership, management, branding, websites, personnel, technology, intellectual property, links or business relationships.
2. FLORIDA ENTITY ORGANIZATION — TENNESSEE OPERATIONS
CEO RESOURCE LLC and Good-Man LLC are limited liability companies organized under the laws of the State of Florida and maintain Florida registered-agent arrangements as required by applicable Florida law.
The organization, ownership, governance, internal affairs and member or manager rights, duties and liabilities of those Florida limited liability companies remain governed by Florida law to the extent Florida law or their governing documents require.
The internal affairs of Goodman Group, Inc. remain governed by the law applicable to its jurisdiction of incorporation and its governing documents.
The principal business operations relevant to these Covered Sites and Services are presently conducted from Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Entity organization in Florida does not, by itself, require ordinary website, customer or consulting disputes to be litigated in Florida where applicable law permits another contractual governing law and forum.
3. WHAT THESE TERMS COVER
“Covered Sites” include ChiefImpleMentor.com, Chiefi.com, FiveYearLife.com and any Company Group website, subdomain, landing page or online property that displays, links to or incorporates these Terms.
“Covered Content” includes articles, books, manuscripts, workbooks, newsletters, emails, videos, photographs, graphics, downloads, forms, worksheets, reports, research, data presentations, software, tools, templates, spreadsheets, prompts, prompt sequences, workflow instructions, questionnaires, checklists, scorecards, action plans, models, calculators, formulas, macros, code, audio, educational resources and other material made available by or through a Covered Site.

“User Input” means information, assumptions, numbers, documents, instructions, files, trademarks, logos, business information or other material supplied by or on behalf of a user for use with Covered Content, AI Arsenal™, a third-party artificial-intelligence service or a Company Group Service.
“Generated Deliverable” means a document, spreadsheet, model, report, analysis, scorecard, plan, presentation, worksheet, schedule, recommendation or other output produced or materially assisted by an artificial-intelligence system, software tool or workflow using User Input or Covered Content.
4. ADDITIONAL TERMS & TRANSACTION-SPECIFIC AGREEMENTS
Particular Products or Services may be governed by a Statement of Work, invoice, payment terms, checkout terms, license, confidentiality agreement, release, publishing agreement, retailer agreement or other written conditions (“Additional Terms”).
Those Additional Terms are incorporated into the applicable transaction.
If these general Terms conflict with valid Additional Terms, the Additional Terms control for the particular transaction or subject they address.
5. USING A WEBSITE DOES NOT MAKE YOU A CONSULTING CLIENT
Viewing a Covered Site, downloading free material, sending an email, submitting a contact form, participating in an informal discussion or joining an email list does not create a consultant-client, fiduciary, broker-client, investment-adviser, attorney-client, accountant-client, doctor-patient, therapist-patient, employment, partnership, joint-venture or other professional relationship.
A formal consulting relationship with CEO RESOURCE LLC begins only as provided by the applicable Statement of Work or other written engagement terms, including any required acceptance and funding.
6. GENERAL BUSINESS INFORMATION — NOT LICENSED PROFESSIONAL ADVICE
Covered Content and general communications are provided for informational, educational and business-consulting purposes.
Unless an applicable written agreement expressly and lawfully provides otherwise, they are not legal, tax, accounting, investment, securities, brokerage, insurance, medical, psychiatric, psychological, therapeutic, credit, employment-law, regulatory or other licensed professional advice.
You should consult qualified attorneys, accountants, tax professionals, investment professionals, medical professionals or other appropriately licensed specialists when your circumstances require such advice.
You remain responsible for determining whether, when and how to act on information or recommendations supplied through a Covered Site or Service.
7. FUNDRAISING, SECURITIES & INVESTOR INFORMATION
Historical references to fundraising, private placements, investor relations, Goodman Securities, Inc., broker-dealer activities, securities experience or prior capital raises describe historical experience unless expressly stated otherwise.
Nothing on a Covered Site constitutes an offer to sell, solicitation of an offer to buy, recommendation concerning, or investment advice relating to any security.
Unless expressly established through legally compliant Additional Terms, neither Robert Lee Goodman nor a Company Group member is acting through a Covered Site as your broker-dealer, investment adviser, placement agent, finder, securities intermediary or fiduciary.
References to angel investors, venture capitalists, family offices, prospective investors or other professional contacts do not constitute a promise of access, introduction, meeting, investment, financing, securities placement or successful fundraising.
8. PRIVATE-PLACEMENT & FUNDRAISING MATERIALS
Any business-side assistance with private-placement memoranda, offering materials, investor presentations, financial models or fundraising documents is provided solely as business consulting unless applicable Additional Terms expressly provide otherwise.
Such assistance does not replace securities counsel, tax counsel, accounting review, regulatory filings, state blue-sky analysis or other professional review.
Clients are responsible for obtaining appropriate legal, tax, accounting and regulatory review before using offering or fundraising documents.
9. NO EARNINGS, BUSINESS, CAREER, FUNDRAISING, IMPLEMENTATION OR FINANCIAL GUARANTEE
We make no promise or guarantee that you will earn money, increase revenue, increase profits, reduce expenses, attract investors, raise capital, obtain financing, build a successful company, avoid business failure, achieve market acceptance, meet a launch date, complete a project on time or on budget, hire or retain a successful employee or contractor, publish a successful book, obtain employment, receive a promotion, achieve a particular salary, improve credit, reduce debt, avoid financial loss or achieve any other particular commercial, career, operational, fundraising or financial result.
No W Cubed™ material, AI Arsenal™ workflow, WHO Chart™ score, spreadsheet, model, scenario, Generated Deliverable, consulting recommendation or other Product, Content or Service is a guarantee that a company will succeed, survive, become adequately capitalized, avoid litigation or regulatory action, complete financing, achieve a Milestone or avoid another adverse outcome.
Examples, estimates, projections, compensation ranges, case studies, historical results, illustrations, scenarios, modeled outcomes and hypothetical results are not promises, predictions or guarantees of your future results.
The separate
Earnings & Results Disclaimer
is incorporated by reference into these Terms.
10. TESTIMONIALS, PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS & REVIEWS
Testimonials, performance evaluations, recommendations and client comments reflect the experience and opinion of the person who provided them at the time they were provided.
They do not guarantee that another client, reader, customer or participant will achieve the same or similar result.
We do not require positive sentiment as a condition of receiving a lawful incentive, advance copy, benefit or consideration. Where applicable law requires disclosure of a material relationship or incentive, we intend for that relationship to be disclosed clearly.
Nothing in these Terms prohibits a person from making an honest, lawful review or statement concerning the person’s actual experience.
11. BOOKS, WORKBOOKS, PUBLICATIONS & EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS
Books, workbooks, newsletters, articles, videos, worksheets and other publications associated with Robert Lee Goodman, Good-Man LLC, Five Year Life™ or other Company Group brands are informational and educational works.
They do not replace individualized professional advice.
Readers are responsible for evaluating their own facts, jurisdiction, employment status, financial condition, health, family circumstances and other relevant considerations before acting.
Where examples are expressly identified as hypothetical, illustrative, composite or adapted, they should not be interpreted as representations that every detail describes one actual person or event.
12. HEALTH, WELLNESS & PERSONAL-DEVELOPMENT CONTENT
Any discussion of sleep, stress, emotional wellbeing, fitness, food, diet, behavior, relationships, mental health or similar subjects is general educational information and is not medical, psychiatric, psychological, therapeutic or other healthcare advice. Do not delay or disregard professional care because of Covered Content.
13. CAREER, EMPLOYMENT, HIRING, CONTRACTOR, BENEFITS, CREDIT & DEBT INFORMATION
Career, résumé, job-search, unemployment, compensation, government-benefit, credit, debt, hiring, staffing, contractor and similar information can change and can differ substantially by employer, occupation, jurisdiction and individual circumstance. No Covered Content guarantees employment, eligibility, benefits, compensation, credit approval, successful hiring, employee performance, contractor performance or any governmental or private-party determination.
The WHO Chart™, candidate scorecards, interview frameworks, self-assessment tools, AI-assisted analyses and related hiring or contractor-selection materials are general business decision-support tools. They are not represented as professionally validated psychological tests, employment-selection examinations, background investigations or guarantees concerning honesty, integrity, personality, future performance or suitability.
Candidate self-ratings, interviewer ratings, AI-generated observations, comparative scores and other outputs should be treated as information for human consideration rather than automatic hiring, firing, promotion, compensation or contractor-selection decisions.
Users are responsible for designing and applying lawful, job-related criteria and for complying with applicable federal, state and local employment, discrimination, disability, accommodation, wage-and-hour, privacy, background-check, recordkeeping and other requirements.
Where a hiring or employment process involves disability, medical information, background reports, credit information, criminal-history information, protected characteristics or other regulated information, users should obtain advice from qualified employment counsel or other appropriate professionals before acting.
Whether a worker should lawfully be treated as an employee, independent contractor, consultant or other service provider is a legal and tax classification question that depends on applicable facts and law. A W Cubed™, WHO Chart™ or AI Arsenal™ workflow does not determine worker classification. Users should obtain appropriate legal and tax advice when classification is material.
14. STATISTICS, RESEARCH, PRICES & TIME-SENSITIVE INFORMATION
Covered Content may reference government statistics, research, market data, prices, compensation ranges, laws, regulations, web resources or third-party information that changes over time.
A figure or statement accurate when published may later become outdated. You are responsible for confirming current information before making a consequential decision.
15. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & TECHNOLOGY-ASSISTED WORK
The Company Group may use artificial-intelligence systems, software, research tools, automation and other technology to assist with drafting, editing, analysis, research, production, administration or other work.
AI Arsenal™ products and other Covered Content may also instruct or assist users in working directly with third-party artificial-intelligence systems.
Artificial-intelligence systems are probabilistic and may produce different results from the same or similar instructions. AI-assisted outputs can contain errors, omissions, unsupported assumptions, inaccurate citations, outdated information, fabricated information, formula errors, reasoning errors, inconsistencies or material that is inappropriate for a user’s particular circumstances.
Material business, financial, employment, medical, legal, tax, accounting, regulatory, securities or other consequential decisions should be independently verified using appropriate primary sources, human judgment and qualified professional advisers where appropriate.
15A. W CUBED™, AI ARSENAL™, DRIVING ASSUMPTIONS & GENERATED DELIVERABLES
W Cubed™ Founder Launch
W Cubed™ Founder Launch is a general startup execution methodology and educational business resource. It may include Action Items, Milestones, Action Plans, Gantt charts, Go/No-Go Gates, WHO Chart™ materials, assumption tests, financial concepts, checklists, examples, field notes, templates and other tools.
Although the Founder Launch may be described as the complete W Cubed™ Founder Launch methodology, “complete” refers to the Company Group’s then-current published methodology and does not mean that the material contains every task, fact, law, risk, professional discipline or decision applicable to every company, industry, jurisdiction or circumstance.
Providing W Cubed™ without charge does not place it in the public domain, waive intellectual-property rights or authorize unrestricted copying, resale, redistribution, republication or creation of competing products.
AI Arsenal™ Lite & AI Arsenal™ Pro
AI Arsenal™ Lite and AI Arsenal™ Pro are collections of authored prompts, workflows, interview structures, prompt sequences, analytical frameworks, templates, tools and related instructions intended to assist users in working with artificial-intelligence systems. They are not guarantees of correct answers, complete analysis, lawful compliance, successful decisions or successful business outcomes.
AI Arsenal™ Lite and AI Arsenal™ Pro may differ materially in scope, number of workflows, supporting tools, spreadsheets, features, eligibility, access period and availability. Access to one version does not create a right to another version unless the applicable offer, license, Statement of Work or other Additional Terms expressly state otherwise.
AI Arsenal™ Pro or another advanced version may be limited to qualifying consulting clients, licensees or other eligible recipients. Availability, eligibility, duration of access and included materials are controlled by the then-current applicable offer, license, checkout terms, Statement of Work or other Additional Terms.
Driving Assumptions — A Correct Formula Can Still Produce a Dangerous Answer
Financial models, business plans, hiring plans, schedules, forecasts, budgets, valuations, capital requirements, pricing analyses, market analyses and other Generated Deliverables depend substantially on the User Input and driving assumptions supplied to or developed with the applicable system.
A calculation may be mathematically correct while the underlying assumption is unrealistic. Artificial intelligence can propagate a good assumption quickly and can also propagate a bad assumption quickly through many related calculations, documents and recommendations.
Users remain responsible for evaluating who selected a material assumption, what experience or evidence supports it, what other assumptions or decisions depend on it and what may happen if it proves wrong.
Base cases, downside cases, upside cases, sensitivity analyses and other scenarios are analytical tools and are not predictions, promises, forecasts of guaranteed results or assurances that actual events will fall within the modeled range.
Third-Party AI Providers
A user may choose to use AI Arsenal™ with ChatGPT, Claude or another third-party artificial-intelligence, software or technology service. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the Company Group does not operate, control or guarantee those third-party systems.
Use of a third-party AI provider is subject to that provider’s then-current terms, privacy practices, data-retention practices, security controls, intellectual-property provisions, usage limitations and technical capabilities. Those terms may change independently of the Company Group.
The Company Group is not responsible merely because an AI Arsenal™ workflow is used with a third-party system for that provider’s outages, model changes, data handling, training practices, security, confidentiality, output restrictions, usage limits or other conduct.
Do not place passwords, authentication credentials, Social Security numbers, bank credentials, protected health information, material nonpublic securities information, trade secrets, highly confidential personal information or other sensitive material into a third-party AI system unless you have independently determined that the provider, account configuration, contractual protections and intended use are appropriate.
User Input & Company-Branded Deliverables
Users remain responsible for the accuracy, completeness, legality and sufficiency of User Input and represent that they have the rights necessary to use any names, logos, trademarks, copyrighted material, data, documents or other content they provide.
AI Arsenal™ may be designed to help generate documents, spreadsheets, models, reports, scorecards, analyses, plans and other work products carrying the user’s company name, branding or business information. Such branding means the work product has been prepared for the user’s business; it does not mean the Company Group has audited, certified, endorsed, approved or guaranteed the underlying facts, assumptions, calculations or conclusions.
Rights in Generated Deliverables
Subject to applicable law, third-party provider terms and the intellectual-property rights retained in underlying Company Group materials, an authorized user may use, edit and adapt Generated Deliverables produced through authorized use of AI Arsenal™ for that user’s own lawful personal or internal-business purposes and may share those deliverables with employees, contractors, professional advisers, lenders, prospective investors or other persons where reasonably necessary for the user’s own business purposes.
This permission applies to the user’s resulting work product. It does not transfer ownership of, or authorize redistribution of, the underlying AI Arsenal™ prompts, workflow text, proprietary interview sequences, templates, methodologies, instructions, libraries or other Company Group intellectual property.
Because artificial-intelligence systems can produce similar or identical material for multiple users, the Company Group does not warrant that a Generated Deliverable is unique or exclusive.
The Company Group does not warrant that every AI-generated element is eligible for copyright, patent, trademark or other intellectual-property protection, or that a Generated Deliverable will not require modification, clearance or professional review before commercial use.
Spreadsheets, Models & Other Working Files
Generated or supplied spreadsheets, formulas, schedules, financial models and other working files may contain formula errors, broken references, incompatible functions, import or export problems, formatting differences, assumptions requiring manual entry or other defects.
Before relying on a spreadsheet or model for a consequential decision, financing, securities presentation, tax position, accounting treatment, hiring plan, cash commitment or other material action, the user should independently verify formulas, assumptions, references, calculations and outputs and obtain appropriate professional review when warranted.
No Consulting Relationship Created
Downloading or using W Cubed™, AI Arsenal™ Lite, AI Arsenal™ Pro, a Generated Deliverable, WHO Chart™ material, a spreadsheet, a workflow or another digital resource does not itself create a consulting, fiduciary or other professional relationship with Robert Lee Goodman, CEO RESOURCE LLC or another Company Group member. A consulting relationship exists only as provided by an applicable accepted Statement of Work or other written engagement agreement.
16. CEO RESOURCE LLC CONSULTING SERVICES
Paid consulting services offered by CEO RESOURCE LLC are governed by the then-current applicable Statement of Work or other written engagement agreement.
Those Additional Terms may address retainers, rates, billing increments, expenses, queue priority, timing, confidentiality, intellectual property, termination, indemnification, governing law, venue and other engagement-specific matters.
Where an accepted Statement of Work differs from a general website description, the Statement of Work controls the engagement.
17. BEST EFFORTS — NO GUARANTEE OF CONSULTING RESULTS
Business consulting and mentoring depend on facts, assumptions, markets, timing, client decisions, implementation, employees, customers, investors, vendors, regulators and many other circumstances outside our control.
Unless expressly guaranteed in signed Additional Terms, Services are provided on a best-efforts basis. No assurance is made concerning successful financing, fundraising, implementation, revenue, profitability, market acceptance, completion timing or another particular result.
18. CLIENT CONTROL & IMPLEMENTATION RESPONSIBILITY
Consulting recommendations are advisory and supportive unless an applicable agreement expressly assigns specific implementation authority.
The client retains responsibility for business decisions, execution, legal compliance, financial commitments, hiring, firing, contracts, investments, securities offerings and other acts taken in the client’s name.
The client is responsible for reviewing recommendations and obtaining specialized professional advice where appropriate before implementation.
19. CONSULTING AVAILABILITY, CURRENT FOUNDER RETAINER LIMITS, QUEUES & TIMING
Robert Lee Goodman’s consulting availability is deliberately limited because publishing and related legacy projects are now his primary professional focus.
At present, CEO RESOURCE LLC has established a current program limit of no more than 100 ten-hour Founder Retainer blocks. This is a current business and availability limit, not a perpetual commitment, permanent lifetime cap or promise that exactly 100 blocks will be offered, sold, accepted, reserved or continuously available.
CEO RESOURCE LLC may in the future increase, decrease, suspend, reopen, restructure or discontinue that limit or the Founder Retainer program, and may change pricing, eligibility, availability or other terms prospectively, subject to any then-existing contractual obligations under accepted Statements of Work.
A visitor, subscriber or prospective client does not obtain or reserve a consulting block merely by viewing a page, downloading W Cubed™, obtaining AI Arsenal™, joining an email list, submitting an inquiry or expressing interest.
A consulting engagement or retainer is established only as provided in the applicable Statement of Work or other written engagement terms, including any required acceptance and funding. CEO RESOURCE LLC may decline a proposed engagement where appropriate, subject to applicable law.
Standard, Priority and Top Priority services, rates, availability and queue rules are governed by the applicable Statement of Work and then-current service descriptions.
No statement on a Covered Site guarantees a particular consulting start date, completion date, milestone, response time or uninterrupted period of work unless an applicable written agreement expressly guarantees it.
20. PAYMENTS, RETAINERS, REFUNDS & CANCELLATIONS
Prices, funding requirements, billing terms, cancellation rights, refund rights and retainer provisions are determined by the applicable Statement of Work, invoice, checkout page, retailer terms or other Additional Terms.
A consulting retainer identified as non-refundable in an applicable agreement is governed by that agreement to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Where applicable Additional Terms provide that payment constitutes acceptance of those Additional Terms, making the payment constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
The customer remains responsible for taxes, fees or other amounts lawfully imposed on a transaction unless expressly included in the stated price.
21. THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSORS & RETAILERS
Payments or purchases may be processed by banks, payment processors, online retailers, marketplaces, distributors or other third parties.
Those third parties operate under their own terms, privacy policies, security practices and dispute procedures.
A chargeback or payment dispute does not independently cancel contractual obligations or create rights beyond those available under applicable law and the governing transaction terms.
22. DIGITAL PRODUCTS, W CUBED™, AI ARSENAL™ & LIMITED LICENSE
Unless expressly stated otherwise, downloadable books, workbooks, W Cubed™ materials, AI Arsenal™ materials, reports, spreadsheets, templates, checklists, worksheets, graphics, audio, video and other digital resources are licensed to the purchaser or authorized recipient for lawful personal or internal-business use. Purchase, free delivery or other authorized access does not transfer copyright, trademark or other ownership rights in the underlying Company Group material.
An authorized recipient may ordinarily make the digital resource reasonably available to employees, officers, contractors or professional advisers working for the same business to the extent necessary for that business’s authorized internal use, provided the resource is not redistributed, republished, resold, sublicensed or made generally available outside that organization.
Where an AI Arsenal™ workflow is intended to be used with an artificial-intelligence service, the authorized user may submit the applicable prompt or workflow to a third-party AI system for inference and generation of the user’s own Generated Deliverable. That intended use is permitted and is not, by itself, prohibited AI model training under Section 27.
Authorized users may ordinarily use, modify and internally reproduce their resulting Generated Deliverables for their own lawful business activities and may disclose those deliverables to employees, contractors, advisers, lenders, investors and other persons reasonably necessary to the user’s own business, subject to applicable law, third-party provider terms and third-party intellectual-property rights.
The underlying prompts, workflow libraries, proprietary instructions, template structures, methodologies and other Company Group materials may not be resold, republished, distributed as a prompt library, sublicensed, used to create a competing commercial product or service or otherwise commercially exploited except as expressly authorized in writing or permitted by law.
A free price does not mean a free license. W Cubed™ or another resource made available without charge remains protected intellectual property and is licensed only on the terms stated here or in applicable Additional Terms.
23. ADVANCE READER TEAMS & PREPUBLICATION MATERIALS
Advance Reader Team (“ART”) manuscripts, advance copies and other prepublication materials are supplied for personal evaluation and reader feedback and remain protected intellectual property.
Unless expressly authorized, advance material may not be redistributed, uploaded, sold, republished, reproduced for other people or used to create derivative commercial products.
ART participation does not require a positive review and does not require a public review unless separately and lawfully agreed.
Feedback voluntarily provided may be used for editorial evaluation and improvement. A person’s name, likeness or comments will not knowingly be represented publicly as a testimonial or endorsement without appropriate permission or another lawful basis.
24. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNERSHIP — PROMPTS, WORKFLOWS, FORMS, DOCUMENTS & SPREADSHEETS
Covered Content may be owned by Robert Lee Goodman, a Company Group entity, an authorized licensor or another third party. Certain intellectual property may be owned by Robert Lee Goodman and licensed to Good-Man LLC, CEO RESOURCE LLC or another Company Group member. Other intellectual property may be owned directly by a Company Group entity.
To the extent protected by applicable copyright law, Company Group ownership or licensed rights may include original text, explanations, authored long-form prompts, workflow wording, prompt sequences, interview scripts, compilations, selection and arrangement of workflow libraries, manuals, instructions, examples, graphics, substantive forms, substantive worksheets, spreadsheet text and presentation, dashboards, macros, computer code and other original expression contained in W Cubed™, AI Arsenal™ Lite, AI Arsenal™ Pro, the Professional Founder Control Center™ and related materials.
Copyright protection is claimed only to the extent the material is legally protectable. Copyright does not by itself create exclusive rights in ideas, business methods, systems, procedures, mathematical formulas, facts, short phrases, blank forms or other material excluded from copyright protection by applicable law. The existence of functional or unprotectable elements does not waive rights in protectable original expression, compilation authorship, software code, graphics or other eligible material incorporated with them.
Company Group copyright notices, including notices identifying Robert Lee Goodman or a Company Group entity as copyright owner, may be used on particular works. The applicable ownership and licensing chain is determined by the actual creation, assignment, license and other governing documents for that work and not solely by the placement or omission of a notice.
No free distribution, subscriber access, advance copy, promotional delivery or authorized use places Company Group intellectual property in the public domain or constitutes an abandonment of copyright, trademark, trade-secret, contractual or other rights.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
25. TRADEMARKS, SERVICE MARKS & BRAND IDENTIFIERS
Names, phrases, logos, designs, shorthand identifiers and brand identifiers appearing on Covered Sites or in Covered Content may constitute trademarks, service marks, trade names or other protected branding. Use of ™ or SM identifies a claimed mark; use of ® is reserved for marks registered where legally appropriate.
They include, among others, Chief ImpleMentor™, “I Help Startups Start & Stay Started.”™, W Cubed™, W³ as a W Cubed brand shorthand, W Cubed™ Founder Launch, Startup Company Methodology™, Ready for Prime Time™, AI Arsenal™, AI Arsenal™ Lite, AI Arsenal™ Pro, WHO Chart™, Professional Founder Control Center™, Compound Knowledge™, Five Year Life™, Chart Your Five Year Future™, Dots Of Knowledge™, Triple Hat Critics™, Quick Cash Generation Inventory™, Re-Entry Links™, Demographic Lens™, Bare Minimum Budget™, Your Last Paycheck™ and Reset Protocol™, together with other marks and brand identifiers appearing in Company Group materials.
The foregoing list is illustrative and non-exclusive. Omission of a Company Group mark, slogan, logo, product name or brand identifier from this Section does not constitute abandonment, waiver or admission concerning any rights in that identifier.
Nothing in these Terms grants a license to use Company Group branding except as expressly authorized in writing, as reasonably necessary to use an authorized Generated Deliverable for the user’s own business, or as otherwise permitted by law.
26. LIMITED WEBSITE LICENSE
Subject to these Terms, you receive a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access Covered Content for lawful personal or internal-business purposes. Except where applicable law permits otherwise, you may not reproduce, republish, sublicense, sell, redistribute, publicly display, commercially exploit, remove ownership notices from or create derivative works from Covered Content without prior written authorization.
27. AUTOMATED SCRAPING, DATASETS, AI MODEL TRAINING & PROMPT-LIBRARY MISUSE
Except for ordinary search-engine, browser, archival or retrieval indexing consistent with applicable law and technical permissions, you may not systematically scrape, harvest, copy or assemble substantial portions of Covered Content for resale, redistribution, competitive products or commercial databases without written permission.
You may not use substantial portions of Covered Content, W Cubed™ materials or AI Arsenal™ libraries for commercial artificial-intelligence model training, model fine-tuning, synthetic-dataset development, retrieval databases intended to reproduce the Company’s proprietary library, or similar machine-learning exploitation without prior written authorization, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by applicable law.
You may not systematically extract, reproduce or reorganize AI Arsenal™ prompts, workflows, interview structures, template instructions or related materials in order to publish, distribute, sell, license or create a competing prompt library, workflow library, consulting product or software product.
For avoidance of doubt, an authorized user’s submission of an AI Arsenal™ prompt or workflow to a third-party artificial-intelligence service for the ordinary intended purpose of obtaining that user’s own Generated Deliverable is permitted under the applicable license and is not prohibited by this Section solely because an AI service processes the prompt.
28. COPYRIGHT COMPLAINTS
If you believe material appearing on a Covered Site infringes your copyright, provide written notice containing sufficient information to:
- identify the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
- identify the allegedly infringing material and where it appears;
- provide your name, address, telephone number and email address;
- state your good-faith belief that the disputed use is unauthorized by the copyright owner, its agent or law;
- state under penalty of perjury that the information supplied is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf; and
- provide your physical or electronic signature.

29. INFORMATION & MATERIAL YOU SUBMIT
You remain responsible for information, documents, comments, images, files, suggestions and other material you voluntarily submit.
You represent that you have sufficient rights to submit the material and that your submission does not unlawfully infringe another person’s copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, contract, trade secret or other rights.
You authorize the applicable Company Group member and its service providers to receive, store, process, reproduce internally and transmit submitted material to the extent reasonably necessary to respond to you, evaluate your request, administer a transaction or provide requested Services.
30. DO NOT SEND HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION BEFORE AN ENGAGEMENT EXISTS
Contact forms, ordinary email, social-media communications and preliminary discussions are not a substitute for an executed confidentiality or consulting agreement.
Before an applicable confidentiality obligation exists, do not send passwords, authentication credentials, Social Security numbers, financial-account credentials, highly sensitive personal information, protected health information, material nonpublic securities information, trade secrets or other information whose unauthorized disclosure could cause serious harm.
Confidentiality during a consulting engagement is governed by the applicable Statement of Work or other written agreement.
31. GENERAL SUGGESTIONS & FEEDBACK
If you voluntarily provide general ideas, suggestions or feedback concerning our websites, publications, branding, Products or Services, you authorize us to consider and use that feedback without an obligation to compensate you.
This provision does not transfer ownership of your pre-existing intellectual property and does not override a separately executed confidentiality, consulting or intellectual-property agreement.
32. PROHIBITED CONDUCT
You may not use a Covered Site, Covered Content, AI Arsenal™ material or Generated Deliverable to:
- violate applicable law or another person’s lawful rights;
- commit fraud, deception, identity theft or other unlawful conduct;
- transmit malware, malicious code, spyware, ransomware, destructive files or unauthorized automated systems;
- attempt unauthorized access to accounts, servers, systems, networks or data;
- circumvent security, access controls, rate limits or technical restrictions;
- impersonate another person or materially misrepresent your identity or affiliation;
- interfere with the availability, integrity or operation of a Covered Site;
- unlawfully harvest, collect, publish or misuse personal information;
- infringe intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, contractual, employment or other legal rights;
- use hiring, WHO Chart™ or AI-assisted decision tools to implement unlawful discrimination or another unlawful employment practice;
- misrepresent a Generated Deliverable as audited, certified, legally approved or professionally validated by the Company Group when it is not;
- remove or obscure copyright, trademark, confidentiality, attribution or license notices in a manner inconsistent with the applicable license; or
- use Covered Content in a manner expressly prohibited by these Terms.
33. PRIVACY & PERSONAL INFORMATION
Our handling of personal information is governed by the applicable
Privacy Statement
and applicable law.
These Terms do not waive privacy rights that applicable law makes non-waivable.
34. EMAIL, NEWSLETTERS & ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
If you voluntarily subscribe to newsletters, Advance Reader Team communications, W Cubed™ updates, AI Arsenal™ updates or marketing communications, you may unsubscribe using the method provided in the communication.
Administrative, transactional, contractual, security, purchase-related or service-related messages may still be sent when reasonably necessary to administer an existing relationship or transaction.
You consent to receiving legally permissible electronic records and communications relating to transactions you initiate electronically.
35. THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES, SERVICES & INFORMATION
Covered Sites may link to or integrate with payment processors, retailers, publishers, email providers, hosting providers, software companies, AI services, government agencies, research sources, social networks and other third parties.
A link, reference or integration does not necessarily constitute endorsement.
We do not control third-party content, availability, security, privacy practices, terms or acts and are not responsible for them merely because a Covered Site contains a link, reference or integration.
36. AFFILIATE, SPONSORED & COMMERCIAL RELATIONSHIPS
Where applicable, material affiliate, sponsorship, compensation or commercial relationships will be disclosed as required by applicable law. Compensation does not authorize false or misleading statements.
37. NAMES, BRANDS & THIRD-PARTY REFERENCES
Reference to a company, employer, government agency, product, platform, book, website, technology, person or trademark does not necessarily mean that the referenced party sponsors, endorses or is affiliated with Robert Lee Goodman or a Company Group member unless such relationship is expressly stated.
38. INTERNET & INFORMATION-SECURITY RISKS
No internet transmission, website, email service, cloud platform, AI provider or computer system can be guaranteed perfectly secure or continuously available.
You should use appropriate precautions and should not transmit highly sensitive credentials or regulated information using an ordinary contact form, ordinary email or third-party AI system unless an appropriate secure method and lawful use have been independently determined.
39. SITE AVAILABILITY, PRODUCT VERSIONS, PRICING, PROMOTIONS, CORRECTIONS & CHANGES
We may correct errors, revise Covered Content, issue revised W Cubed™ or AI Arsenal™ versions, change pricing, alter availability, add or remove features, change workflow counts or supporting materials in future versions, discontinue Products or Services, reorganize websites or suspend access when reasonably appropriate.
A person who lawfully obtains a particular paid or free version retains whatever license rights apply to that version, subject to these Terms and applicable Additional Terms, but does not automatically acquire a contractual right to every future product, feature, edition, service or format unless expressly stated.
References to free downloads, introductory pricing, “first 100,” “next 100,” quantity-based offers or similar promotions describe limited promotional availability. The then-current applicable registration, order or checkout page controls the price and availability at the time the qualifying claim or transaction is completed.
Viewing an advertisement or page while a promotional tier is available does not itself reserve a place in that tier. A promotion may become unavailable after its applicable quantity is reached.
Where the Company Group states that W Cubed™ Founder Launch updates are made available free to eligible subscribers, that means updates that the Company Group elects to make generally available through that program while the program remains offered. Unless expressly stated otherwise, it is not a promise to maintain every prior format, delivery method, feature or version indefinitely.
Historical material may remain available after underlying statistics, laws, links, prices, AI models, technologies, availability or circumstances have changed.
40. EVENTS BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL
To the maximum extent permitted by law, a Company Group member is not responsible for delay or failure caused by events reasonably beyond its control, including natural disasters, severe weather, fire, war, terrorism, civil disturbance, labor disputes, illness, utility failure, telecommunications failure, internet outage, hosting failure, cyberattack, governmental action, transportation interruption, supply-chain interruption, third-party service failure or other force-majeure event.
41. AGE, CAPACITY & AUTHORITY
Covered Sites and business Services are directed principally to adults.
If you enter a transaction or agreement on behalf of a corporation, LLC, partnership or other organization, you represent that you have authority to act for and bind that organization.
42. USERS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
Covered Sites are operated from the United States. A user accessing a Covered Site from another jurisdiction is responsible for compliance with laws applicable to that user’s access and conduct. Nothing in these Terms eliminates rights or obligations that applicable law makes non-waivable.
43. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES — NO GUARANTEES OF ANY KIND
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, COVERED SITES, COVERED CONTENT, PRODUCTS, DIGITAL RESOURCES, GENERATED DELIVERABLES AND FREE RESOURCES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” EXCEPT ONLY FOR A SPECIFIC EXPRESS WARRANTY SET FORTH IN CONTROLLING WRITTEN ADDITIONAL TERMS, THE COMPANY GROUP DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE OF TRADE OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, QUALITY, AVAILABILITY, SECURITY, RELIABILITY, TIMELINESS, RESULTS AND FREEDOM FROM ERROR.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NO REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE OF ANY KIND IS MADE THAT W CUBED™, AI ARSENAL™, THE WHO CHART™, ANY PROMPT, WORKFLOW, FORM, TEMPLATE, SPREADSHEET, FORMULA, FINANCIAL MODEL, FORECAST, BUSINESS PLAN, ACTION PLAN, SCORECARD, GENERATED DELIVERABLE, CONSULTING RECOMMENDATION OR OTHER PRODUCT, CONTENT OR SERVICE WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, CURRENT, ERROR-FREE, UNIQUE, LEGALLY COMPLIANT, PROFITABLE, SUCCESSFUL, SUITABLE FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR APPROPRIATE FOR THE USER’S BUSINESS OR CIRCUMSTANCES.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT A COVERED SITE, THIRD-PARTY AI SERVICE OR OTHER TECHNOLOGY WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS; THAT EVERY DEFECT, ERROR, HALLUCINATION, BROKEN FORMULA OR OUTDATED ITEM WILL BE DISCOVERED OR CORRECTED; OR THAT COVERED CONTENT OR A GENERATED DELIVERABLE WILL BE APPROPRIATE FOR EVERY PERSON, BUSINESS, PURPOSE, INDUSTRY OR JURISDICTION.
THE USER ASSUMES THE ENTIRE RISK OF REVIEWING, VERIFYING, MODIFYING, IMPLEMENTING OR RELYING UPON COVERED CONTENT, PRODUCTS, SERVICES, USER INPUT, DRIVING ASSUMPTIONS, GENERATED DELIVERABLES AND THIRD-PARTY AI OUTPUTS AND REMAINS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR BUSINESS DECISIONS, PROFESSIONAL REVIEW, LEGAL COMPLIANCE AND IMPLEMENTATION.
NO COMPANY GROUP MEMBER HAS A DUTY TO DISCOVER OR CORRECT AN ERROR, OMISSION, UNSUPPORTED ASSUMPTION, FORMULA ERROR, AI HALLUCINATION, OUTDATED FACT, INACCURATE CITATION OR OTHER DEFECT EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT A CONTROLLING WRITTEN AGREEMENT SPECIFICALLY CREATES SUCH A DUTY. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION DISCLAIMS AN EXPRESS CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION THAT APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT PERMIT THE PARTIES TO DISCLAIM.
44. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY & ASSUMPTION OF IMPLEMENTATION RISK
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY GROUP AND ITS RESPECTIVE OWNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, LICENSORS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS; LOST REVENUE; LOSS OF BUSINESS; LOSS OF FINANCING; LOSS OF INVESTMENT; LOSS OF EMPLOYMENT; LOSS OF DATA; LOSS OF GOODWILL; BUSINESS INTERRUPTION; LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY; COSTS OF REPLACEMENT SERVICES; OR OTHER SIMILAR LOSS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO A COVERED SITE, COVERED CONTENT, PRODUCT, SERVICE, GENERATED DELIVERABLE, THIRD-PARTY AI OUTPUT, USER INPUT, DRIVING ASSUMPTION OR THE IMPLEMENTATION OR NON-IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY OF THEM, EVEN IF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS WAS KNOWN OR FORESEEABLE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY GROUP SHALL NOT BE LIABLE MERELY BECAUSE A USER OR THIRD PARTY RELIED ON A PROMPT, WORKFLOW, SPREADSHEET, MODEL, FORECAST, WHO CHART™ SCORE, BUSINESS PLAN, HIRING TOOL, FINANCING ANALYSIS, INVESTOR MATERIAL, RECOMMENDATION OR OTHER GENERATED DELIVERABLE THAT LATER PROVED INACCURATE, INCOMPLETE, UNSUITABLE OR UNSUCCESSFUL. THE USER RETAINS RESPONSIBILITY FOR VERIFICATION, PROFESSIONAL REVIEW, MANAGEMENT JUDGMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION.
FOR A CLAIM ARISING SOLELY FROM USE OF A COVERED SITE OR FREE COVERED CONTENT, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY GROUP SHALL, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
FOR A PAID PRODUCT OR SERVICE, ANY VALID LIABILITY LIMITATION IN THE APPLICABLE ADDITIONAL TERMS CONTROLS. IF THOSE ADDITIONAL TERMS ARE SILENT, AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID TO THE PARTICULAR COMPANY GROUP MEMBER FOR THE SPECIFIC PRODUCT OR SERVICE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE SIX MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES OR LIMITS LIABILITY TO THE EXTENT SUCH EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION IS PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING LIABILITY THAT MAY NOT LAWFULLY BE DISCLAIMED FOR FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, RECKLESS CONDUCT OR OTHER NON-WAIVABLE CONDUCT WHERE APPLICABLE LAW MAKES SUCH LIABILITY NON-WAIVABLE.
45. CORPORATE SEPARATENESS & PERSONAL CAPACITY
Each Company Group member operates as a separate legal person to the extent provided by applicable law.
The appearance of Robert Lee Goodman’s name, likeness, authorship, biography, title, branding or personal history on a Covered Site does not by itself make him personally liable for a corporation’s or limited liability company’s contractual obligations.
Likewise, common management, ownership, websites, branding, offices, contractors, software, intellectual property or business resources do not by themselves create a partnership, joint venture, general agency, alter-ego relationship or joint liability among Company Group members.
A person or entity is responsible for a contractual obligation only to the extent provided by the applicable agreement and law.
46. YOU REMAIN RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR DECISIONS, ASSUMPTIONS & IMPLEMENTATION
You are responsible for your own decisions, driving assumptions, due diligence, professional advisers, legal compliance and implementation.
An idea, recommendation, AI response, model, forecast, estimate, scenario, spreadsheet, formula, draft, template, checklist, WHO Chart™ score, candidate self-assessment, question, analysis or Generated Deliverable should not be treated as a substitute for your own judgment or for specialized professional advice where such advice is appropriate.
You remain responsible for deciding whether a driving assumption is sufficiently supported before relying on it and for evaluating the consequences if that assumption proves wrong.
You remain responsible for reviewing Generated Deliverables before using or distributing them and for confirming material facts, calculations, citations, legal requirements, financial assumptions, employment criteria and other consequential information.
Neither W Cubed™, AI Arsenal™, the WHO Chart™, Compound Knowledge™ material nor consulting recommendations transfer ultimate management authority or responsibility for your company to Robert Lee Goodman or any Company Group member.
47. INDEMNIFICATION
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the applicable Company Group members and their owners, shareholders, members, managers, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, successors and assigns from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from:
- your unlawful or unauthorized use of a Covered Site, Covered Content, Product, AI Arsenal™ workflow or Generated Deliverable;
- your material violation of these Terms or applicable Additional Terms;
- User Input, material you submit or material you cause to be submitted to a Company Group member or third-party AI provider;
- your infringement or violation of another person’s intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, employment, contractual or other rights;
- your unlawful hiring, employment, contractor, securities, advertising, privacy or other implementation decision based in whole or in part on Covered Content or a Generated Deliverable; or
- your unlawful implementation, publication, distribution or misuse of Content, Products, Services or Generated Deliverables.
48. HONEST REVIEWS, GOVERNMENT REPORTS & PROTECTED COMMUNICATIONS
Nothing in these Terms is intended to prohibit or penalize an honest consumer review, truthful report to a government agency, lawful whistleblowing, testimony, response to lawful process, communication with legal counsel or another communication protected by applicable law.
49. GOVERNING LAW, ENTITY LAW & EXCLUSIVE SEVIER COUNTY VENUE
EXCEPT FOR MATTERS THAT APPLICABLE LAW REQUIRES TO BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF AN ENTITY’S JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION, AND EXCEPT WHERE CONTROLLING ADDITIONAL TERMS EXPRESSLY PROVIDE OTHERWISE, THESE TERMS AND ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO A COVERED SITE, COVERED CONTENT, PRODUCT, COMMUNICATION OR SERVICE SHALL, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TENNESSEE, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT-OF-LAW PRINCIPLES.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE ORGANIZATION, INTERNAL AFFAIRS, OWNERSHIP, GOVERNANCE, MEMBER OR MANAGER RIGHTS AND DUTIES, AND MEMBER OR MANAGER LIABILITY OF CEO RESOURCE LLC AND GOOD-MAN LLC SHALL REMAIN GOVERNED BY FLORIDA LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY FLORIDA LAW OR THEIR GOVERNING DOCUMENTS. THE INTERNAL AFFAIRS OF GOODMAN GROUP, INC. SHALL LIKEWISE REMAIN GOVERNED BY THE LAW APPLICABLE TO ITS JURISDICTION OF INCORPORATION.
SUBJECT TO CONTROLLING ADDITIONAL TERMS AND NON-WAIVABLE LAW, EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN THE STATE COURTS LOCATED IN SEVIER COUNTY, TENNESSEE, AND, WHERE FEDERAL SUBJECT-MATTER JURISDICTION EXISTS, THE FEDERAL COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER SEVIER COUNTY, TENNESSEE, FOR ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, A COVERED SITE, COVERED CONTENT, PRODUCT OR SERVICE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY WAIVES AN OBJECTION BASED ON IMPROPER VENUE, INCONVENIENT FORUM OR LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION WITH RESPECT TO AN ACTION PROPERLY BROUGHT IN THE CONTRACTUALLY SELECTED TENNESSEE FORUM.
50. EMERGENCY & INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
Notwithstanding the ordinary forum provision above, an applicable Company Group member may seek temporary, preliminary or emergency injunctive relief in a court having jurisdiction over the person, property, system, data or intellectual property at issue where reasonably necessary to prevent or stop actual or threatened intellectual-property infringement, unauthorized system access, misuse of confidential information, fraud or similar immediate harm. Seeking such provisional relief does not waive the otherwise applicable Tennessee forum for adjudication of the underlying dispute.
51. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, A COVERED SITE, COVERED CONTENT, A PRODUCT OR SERVICE. A JURY-TRIAL WAIVER CONTAINED IN APPLICABLE ADDITIONAL TERMS REMAINS GOVERNED BY THOSE ADDITIONAL TERMS.
52. INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, a dispute concerning these Terms is to be pursued by the parties in their individual capacities and not as a purported class, collective or representative proceeding, except where applicable law does not permit such a restriction.
53. SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF ACCESS
We may restrict or terminate access to a Covered Site or resource when reasonably necessary to protect security, enforce these Terms, prevent misuse, protect intellectual property, comply with law or discontinue a resource. Termination does not eliminate rights or obligations that by their nature survive termination.
54. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
We may revise these Terms as businesses, websites, Products, Services, technologies or laws change. The “Last Updated” date identifies the current posted version. Revised Terms apply prospectively to use after their effective date except where applicable law or controlling Additional Terms require a different procedure.
55. ORDER OF PRECEDENCE
For a particular transaction, the order of precedence is: (1) signed or otherwise validly accepted transaction-specific Additional Terms; (2) the applicable invoice or checkout terms to the extent they supplement rather than contradict the transaction agreement; (3) these Terms; and (4) general descriptive website content.
56. ENTIRE AGREEMENT FOR WEBSITE USE
These Terms, together with the applicable Privacy Statement, Earnings & Results Disclaimer and applicable Additional Terms, constitute the agreement concerning the matters they address and supersede prior inconsistent website terms concerning those same matters.
57. SEVERABILITY & REFORMATION
If a provision is held invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent or modified or severed only to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.
58. NO WAIVER
Failure to enforce a provision on one occasion does not waive the right to enforce that provision or another provision later. A waiver is effective only to the extent expressly stated in writing by a person authorized to grant it.
59. ASSIGNMENT & SUCCESSORS
You may not assign contractual rights or obligations under these Terms where consent is legally required without prior written consent. The applicable Company Group member may assign rights and obligations in connection with a merger, reorganization, sale of a business, transfer of relevant assets or lawful succession, subject to applicable law and any controlling Additional Terms.
60. NO UNINTENDED THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES
Except for Company Group persons expressly protected by disclaimers, indemnities or limitations in these Terms, these Terms are not intended to create enforceable rights in an unrelated third party.
61. HEADINGS & INTERPRETATION
Headings are for convenience and do not limit the substance of a provision. “Including” means “including without limitation.” Singular terms may include the plural where context requires. These Terms will not be construed against a party merely because that party or its representative participated in drafting them.
62. SURVIVAL
Provisions concerning payment obligations, intellectual property, confidentiality where applicable, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, governing law, venue, dispute provisions and other provisions that logically should continue will survive termination, expiration or cessation of website use.
