You must be of legal age to form a binding contract to register for the Service (in many jurisdictions, this age is 18). If you are not yet of legal age to form a binding contract, then you must get your Parent to read these Terms of Service and agree to them for you before you use the Service.

Child User If you are under the age of 13 (a “Child User, Learner “), you may not create or register an account for the Services without consent and approval from your legal parent or guardian. If you are under the age of 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to the Terms on your behalf, a Child User that begins the registration process for himself or herself without a Parent User (as defined below) may have the registration process restricted until a parent approves or assumes responsibility for the Child User account. A Child User may use the Services if registered through certain educational organizations or, in certain cases, by School Personnel that have entered into a relationship directly with HeartFirst Education, so long as the education organization has obtained parent or guardian consent, or has complied with an exemption to parent consent requirements under applicable law. HeartFirst Education, with the utmost consideration for the safety and well-being of all Child users, will permit the allowance of a Child User’s access to the Services as long as there exists a reasonable and substantiated belief that such access has been sanctioned both by the Child User’s Parent or Guardian and substantiated through the specified purchase methodologies or School Consent. This dual-layered validation mechanism ensures that the Child User’s involvement is not only authorized but also safeguarded by a robust framework of parental consent, as represented by the use of credit card or PayPal purchases. Parent User If you are at least 18 years of age and you are the legal parent or guardian of a child that seeks to register on behalf of a Child User of the Services. Parental consent for users under the age of 13 (referred to as “Child Users”) is required and can be obtained through the completion of a purchase using a valid credit card. This action signifies the explicit approval of the legal parent or guardian for the Child User to access and use the services provided. The credit card purchase serves as a tangible validation of the parent or guardian’s informed decision, ensuring compliance with the necessary consent requirements, you may create, register, manage, and approve Child User accounts only for your own child(ren) or child(ren) for whom you are a legal guardian. IF YOU REGISTER, APPROVE OR CONSENT TO THE REGISTRATION OF, OR OTHERWISE ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY CHILD USER, YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU ARE SUCH CHILD USER’S LEGAL PARENT OR GUARDIAN AND YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS ON BEHALF OF SUCH CHILD USER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION BEING LIABLE FOR ALL USE OF THE WEBSITE BY THE CHILD USER. You acknowledge that HeartFirst Education may choose, but is not obligated, to make any inquiries, either directly or through third parties, that HeartFirst Education deems necessary to validate your registration information, including without limitation engaging third parties to provide verification services. HeartFirst Education reserves all rights to take legal actions against anyone who misrepresents personal information or is otherwise untruthful about their identity. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY OF ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY ANY USER, AND HEARTFIRST EDUCATION IS NOT OBLIGATED TO VERIFY THE IDENTITY OF ANY USER, INCLUDING ANY USER’S CLAIM TO BE A PARENT USER, OR TO VERIFY THAT A PARENT IDENTIFIED BY A CHILD USER OR OTHER PARTY DURING REGISTRATION IS SUCH CHILD USER’S ACTUAL PARENT OR GUARDIAN.

Please note that in some cases, Classes are taught by a Teacher that is actually an organization, group, or team of instructors. In such cases, Class Recordings may be accessed by the organization, and access would not necessarily be limited to a single individual instructor. In addition, HeartFirst Education may use Class Recordings to provide feedback to Teachers, to improve our Services, for customer support, and for compliance purposes.

HeartFirst Education is not responsible for the actions, content, information, or data of other third parties, including other Users. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users of the Services, and any other parties with whom you interact through the Service. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline interaction with any other person. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to become involved in any way with these disputes. Release. If you have a dispute with one or more Users, you release us (and the HeartFirst Education Partners) from all claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes, including damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, privacy or data. If you are a California resident, you waive your rights under California Civil Code §1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” And, if you are not a California resident, you waive your rights under any applicable statutes of a similar effect, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE DISCLAIMER OR EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU OR BE ENFORCEABLE WITH RESPECT TO YOU. IF YOU ARE DISSATISFIED WITH ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR WITH THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE THE USE OF THE SERVICE. IF YOU ARE A USER FROM NEW JERSEY, THE FOREGOING SECTIONS TITLED “DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES” AND “LIMITATION OF LIABILITY” ARE INTENDED TO BE ONLY AS BROAD AS IS PERMITTED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY. IF ANY PORTION OF THESE SECTIONS IS HELD TO BE INVALID UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY, THE INVALIDITY OF SUCH PORTION SHALL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OF THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF THE APPLICABLE SECTIONS. Miscellaneous (Including Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) Notice HeartFirst Education may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to the Terms, by email, regular mail, postings on the Services, or other reasonable means. Notice will be deemed given twenty-four hours after the email is sent unless HeartFirst Education is notified that the email address is invalid.

Waiver The failure of HeartFirst Education to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of the Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by HeartFirst Education. Governing Law The Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Kentucky, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES THROUGH A COURT AND TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE YOUR CASE. Generally. In order to expedite and control the cost of disputes, HeartFirst Education and you agree that any legal or equitable claim, dispute, action or proceeding arising from or related to your use of the Services or these Terms (“Dispute”) will be resolved as follows to the fullest extent permitted by law Notice of Dispute. In the event of a Dispute, you or HeartFirst Education must give the other a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and a proposed solution (a “Notice of Dispute”). You must send any Notice of Dispute by first class U.S. Mail to HeartFirst Education at P.O. 2237 Carter Ave Ashland KY 41101 with a copy sent by email to HeartFirst Education. HeartFirst Education will send any Notice of Dispute to you by first class U.S. Mail to your address if HeartFirst Education has it, or otherwise to your email address. You and HeartFirst Education will attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the Notice of Dispute is sent. After sixty (60) days, you or HeartFirst Education may commence arbitration. Binding Arbitration. Any Dispute which has not been resolved by negotiation as provided herein within sixty (60) days or such time period as you and HeartFirst Education may otherwise agree, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration as described in (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration). You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all Disputes in court before a judge or jury. Instead, all Disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act. The place of arbitration shall be Kentucky. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award. Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any Dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor HeartFirst Education will seek to have any Dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings. You may file a Dispute only on your own behalf and cannot seek relief that would affect other Users. If there is a final judicial determination that any particular Dispute cannot be arbitrated in accordance with the limitations of (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), then only that Dispute may be severed and brought in court. All other Disputes remain subject to (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration). Arbitration Procedures. HeartFirst Education and you agree to select a mutually agreeable alternative dispute resolution service. The arbitrator may award the same damages to you individually as a court could. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief to you only individually, and only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim. Arbitration Fees. Whoever files the arbitration will pay the initial filing fee. If HeartFirst Education files, then HeartFirst Education will pay; if you file, then you will pay unless you get a fee waiver under the applicable arbitration rules. Each party will bear the expense of that party’s attorneys, experts, witnesses, and other expenses, regardless of which party prevails, but a party may recover any or all expenses from another party if the arbitrator, applying applicable law, so determines. Filing Period. To the extent permitted by law, any Dispute under these Terms must be filed within one (1) year in an arbitration proceeding. The one-year period begins when the events giving rise to the Dispute first occur. If a Dispute is not filed within one year, it is permanently barred. Venue. In the event that any Dispute cannot be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), you agree that such Dispute will be filed only in the state or federal courts in and for Kentucky, and each of you and HeartFirst Education hereby consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating any such action. Notwithstanding this, HeartFirst Education shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect or enforce its intellectual property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction. Confidentiality: All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties. Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement: Notwithstanding any provision in this Terms of Service to the contrary, HeartFirst Education agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you are a user of the Services, you may reject any such change by sending HeartFirst Education written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms of Service (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Service). Severability If any provision of the Terms or any Guidelines is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated from the Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. Assignment The Terms and related Guidelines, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without HeartFirst Education’s prior written consent but may be assigned by HeartFirst Education without consent or any restriction. Any assignment attempted to be made in violation of the Terms shall be null and void. Survival Upon termination of the Terms, any provision which, by its nature or express terms should survive, will survive such termination or expiration, including, but not limited to, Sections (Privacy Policy), (Modification of the Terms) through (Digital Millennium Copyright Act), (Proprietary Materials), (Non-Commercial Use), and (Prohibited Conduct) through (Miscellaneous (Including Dispute Resolution and Arbitration)). Entire Agreement The Terms, the Privacy Policy, and Guidelines constitute the entire agreement between you and HeartFirst Education relating to the subject matter herein and will not be modified except in writing, signed by both parties or by a change to the Terms, Privacy Policy or Guidelines made by HeartFirst Education as set forth in Section (Modification of the Terms) above.. General These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and HeartFirst Education and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and HeartFirst Education with respect to the Service. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third-party services, third-party content, or third-party software. The failure of HeartFirst Education to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect.
