By proceeding with your purchase, you provide your consent to this process.

​

For customers with mailing addresses within the United States, all transactions will be conducted and billed in U.S. dollars. If your mailing address is outside the United States or its affiliated territories, all payments will be processed and billed in your local currency.

​

It is imperative that you furnish us with up-to-date, comprehensive, and accurate billing and credit card information. Furthermore, it is your responsibility to maintain the currency, completeness, and accuracy of these details. In the event of a lost or stolen credit card or if you become aware of any potential compromise of your account security, such as unauthorized access or use of your Sign-In Name or Password, please notify us promptly.

​

You grant LRW Enterprise the authority to obtain or ascertain updated or replacement expiration dates for your credit card in cases where the initially provided credit card has expired. We reserve the right to charge any renewal card issued to you to the same extent as the expired card.

​

Should your credit card issuer fail to remit payment to us, you affirm your commitment to fulfilling all outstanding financial obligations upon request. This includes covering all collection costs, encompassing legal fees and associated expenses.

​

In certain scenarios, your credit card provider may impose additional charges, such as foreign transaction fees. It is incumbent upon you to familiarize yourself with your bank's and credit card issuer's policies regarding these fees and related charges.

 

6. Intellectual Property

The Websites feature a wide range of materials, collectively referred to as "Content," which includes videos, coursework, lesson plans, training modules, photographs, software, text, graphics, images, sound recordings, and other materials. This Content may be provided by or on behalf of LRW Enterprise and is subject to protection under both United States and international laws. Unauthorized use of this Content could result in violations of copyright, trademark, and other legal statutes.

​

Visitors to the Websites are permitted to view publicly-available Content for their personal, non-commercial use. Registered Users who have purchased products or services may download and access Content from those specific purchases for their own personal, non-commercial use. With the exceptions outlined in the previous two sentences, you have no other rights concerning the Content, except for your own Registered User Content that you post on the Websites. Any usage of the Content must adhere to the terms set forth in this Agreement. Any other use of the Content without prior written consent from LRW Enterprise is prohibited. LRW Enterprise retains full ownership, including all intellectual property rights, related to the Content. You are required to retain all copyright and proprietary notices found in the original Content.

​

Selling, transferring, assigning, licensing, sublicensing, modifying, reproducing, displaying, publicly performing, creating derivative works from, distributing, or using the Content in any way for public or commercial purposes is strictly prohibited. Posting or using the Content on other websites, social media pages, or within networked computer environments for any purpose is expressly forbidden.

​

If any part of this Agreement is violated, your authorization to access and use the Content and the Websites will automatically terminate, and you must promptly delete any copies of the Content that you have made.

​

The trademarks, service marks, and logos associated with LRW Enterprise ("LRW Enterprise Trademarks") found on the Websites are both registered and unregistered trademarks or service marks owned by LRW Enterprise. Additionally, company, product, and service names appearing on the Websites may belong to others ("Third-Party Trademarks"). Collectively, these are referred to as the "Trademarks." No content on the Websites should be interpreted as granting any license or right to use the Trademarks, unless we provide specific written permission for each intended use. Using the Trademarks as part of a link to or from any other site is prohibited unless we grant prior written approval.

​

Elements of the Websites are protected by trade dress, trademark, unfair competition, and other state and federal laws. These elements may not be copied or imitated in whole or in part by any means, including but not limited to framing or mirroring. Reproducing any part of the Content requires our explicit, written consent for each instance.

 

7. Registered User Content; Licenses

As previously mentioned, the Websites allow Registered Users to post and upload their own content, referred to as "Registered User Content." It's important to understand that once you submit your Registered User Content to the Websites, it becomes accessible to others, and there is no expectation of confidentiality or privacy regarding this content. This includes any personally identifying information you may choose to share. You are solely responsible for all the Registered User Content you upload, post, email, or otherwise transmit through the Websites. LRW Enterprise is not responsible for this content.

​

You retain all copyrights and other intellectual property rights to your Registered User Content. However, by submitting your content, you grant us and our sublicensees a non-exclusive, royalty-free, freely sublicensable, perpetual license. This license allows us to modify, compile, combine with other content, copy, record, synchronize, transmit, translate, format, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, and utilize your Registered User Content (including for profit) and all associated intellectual property and moral rights worldwide. This usage may occur through various means, methods, media, or technology, whether currently known or developed in the future.

Additionally, you grant us and our sublicensees the right (though not the obligation) to use your Registered User Content, Sign-In Name, name, likeness, and photograph. This usage may be in connection with any permissible use of the related Registered User Content as described above or to promote the Websites, LRW Enterprise, and our products and services. It's important to note that this use may include displaying your Registered User Content, name, likeness, and photograph in proximity to advertising and other materials, including for profit.

​

By submitting Registered User Content to us, you represent and warrant to LRW Enterprise that your content is your original creation (or that you have the necessary rights to provide it), that you have the rights to grant the license described above, and that your content and its use by LRW Enterprise and its content partners, as allowed by this Agreement, do not and will not infringe upon or misappropriate the intellectual property or moral rights of any individual. Furthermore, your content should not contain any libelous, defamatory, or obscene material, nor should it violate our Community Guidelines.

 

8. Unsolicited Submissions; Communications with Us

We want to clarify our stance on unsolicited ideas, suggestions, creative works, and other submissions (referred to as "Unsolicited Submissions"). Our company policy is that we and our team do not accept, review, or consider any Unsolicited Submissions, whether they pertain to books, stories, articles, scripts, fan fiction, animations, shows, classes, ad campaigns, promotions, products, services, product names, content, or any other creative materials. Therefore, we kindly request that you refrain from sending us any Unsolicited Submissions in any form, as they will be deleted without being read.

​

The reason for this policy is to prevent potential misunderstandings or disputes that may arise when our products, services, or content appear similar to an Unsolicited Submission provided by you. However, if you choose to submit Unsolicited Submissions despite our request, the following terms will govern your submissions, irrespective of the content of your correspondence:

​

• You acknowledge that no fiduciary or confidential relationship exists or will be established between you and us due to your submission of Unsolicited Submissions.

• It is possible that materials, or parts thereof, developed, created, acquired, licensed, or otherwise obtained by us, as well as third-party materials to which we have had access, may bear similarities or even be identical to your Unsolicited Submission in terms of theme, idea, plot, format, or other aspects.

• You agree that you will not be entitled to any compensation because of the use of such similar or identical material. In connection with this, you hereby release us from any and all claims, damages, legal fees, costs, expenses, debts, actions, and causes of action, of any kind and nature, both known and unknown, suspected or unsuspected, asserted or unasserted, arising from or in connection with such similar or identical material, now or in the future.

• While we welcome your feedback and questions regarding our existing products and services via email, we do not want you to, nor should you, send us content containing confidential information. Furthermore, any feedback and questions sent to us shall be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary, allowing us to use and share them without restriction, compensation, or attribution to you.

 

9. No Warranties; Limitations of Liability

The Websites and the Content they contain are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without any warranties of any kind. This includes any assurance that the Websites will function without errors or that they, their servers, or the Content are free from computer viruses or similar harmful elements.

​

We explicitly disclaim all warranties, such as those related to title, merchantability, non-infringement of third-party rights, and fitness for a specific purpose. Additionally, any warranties that may arise from established business practices, customary performance, or trade usage are disclaimed. Concerning any warranty, contract, or claims under common law tort: (i) we and our licensors shall not be held responsible for any incidental or consequential damages, lost profits, or damages resulting from lost data or business interruption, even if we have been alerted to the potential for such damages; and (ii) any direct damages you may incur due to your use of the Websites or the Content will be limited to the fees you have paid us for any purchases made from us during the three (3) months preceding the events giving rise to the claim.

​

Please note that some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. Therefore, some of the limitations on warranties outlined in this section may not apply to you.

​

The Websites may occasionally contain technical inaccuracies, typographical errors, or omissions. Unless required by applicable laws, we are not responsible for such typographical, technical, or pricing errors listed on the Websites. Furthermore, the Websites may feature information about certain products and services, not all of which may be available in every location. A reference to a product or service on the Websites does not imply that such product or service is or will be accessible in your specific location. We reserve the right to implement changes, corrections, and improvements to the Websites at any time without prior notice.

 

10. External Sites

The Websites may include links to websites operated by third parties, referred to as "External Sites." These links are provided for your convenience and do not imply our endorsement of the content found on these External Sites. The content on External Sites is created and maintained by entities other than us. If you have any concerns about these links or the content on External Sites, please contact the site administrator or webmaster responsible for those External Sites.

​

We do not assume responsibility for the content found on linked External Sites and do not make any claims regarding the accuracy or substance of materials on these External Sites. When downloading files from any website, it is advisable to take precautions to safeguard your computer against viruses and other potentially harmful programs. If you choose to visit linked External Sites, you do so at your own discretion and assume any associated risks.

 

11. Representations; Warranties; and Indemnification

If you are a Registered User, you are making the following commitments:

• You confirm that you either own the rights to your Registered User Content or have obtained the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions for any trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other proprietary, privacy, and publicity rights related to your Registered User Content. This includes any works you incorporate into your Registered User Content. You also assert that you possess all the rights needed to grant the licenses and permissions as described in this Agreement.

• You agree that using your Registered User Content as outlined in this Agreement will not infringe upon or misuse the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, contractual, or other rights of any third party.

• You commit not to submit Registered User Content to the Website that violates our Community Guidelines or any other terms outlined in this Agreement.

 

Furthermore, you agree to protect, indemnify, and hold us, along with our officers, directors, contractors, employees, agents, successors, licensees, and assigns, harmless from any damages, liabilities, losses, expenses, claims, actions, and demands. This includes reasonable legal and accounting fees, arising from:

​

(i) Any breach of this Agreement by you.
(ii) Any misuse of the Content or the Websites by you.
(iii) Any violation of third-party rights, including but not limited to copyright, trademark, property, publicity, or privacy rights by you.

​

If such a claim, lawsuit, or demand arises, we will notify you, and you will be responsible for defending against it, at your own expense. We reserve the right to assume exclusive control (at your expense) of any matter subject to indemnification under this section. In this case, you agree to cooperate with reasonable requests to assist in our defense of the matter.

 

12. Compliance with Applicable Laws

The Websites are hosted in the United States, and we do not provide any assurances regarding the legality of downloading, viewing, or using the Content outside of the United States. If you choose to access the Websites or the Content from a location outside of the United States, you do so at your own risk. It is your responsibility, whether you are inside or outside the United States, to ensure that you adhere to the laws and regulations of your particular jurisdiction.

 

13. Termination of the Agreement

We retain the exclusive right, at our sole discretion, to limit, suspend, or terminate this Agreement and your access to all or any part of the Websites. This action may be taken at any time and for any reason without prior notice or incurring liability. We also maintain the authority to modify, suspend, or cease all or any part of the Websites without prior notice or liability.

​

Specific sections of this Agreement will remain in effect even after its termination. These include the following: "Fees and Payment" (until all fees and taxes owed are paid), "Intellectual Property," "Registered User Content; Licenses," "Communications with Us," "No Warranties; Limitation of Liability," "Representations; Warranties; and Indemnification," "Termination of the Agreement," "Controlling Law," "Binding Arbitration," "Class Action Waiver," "Equitable Relief," and "Miscellaneous."

 

14. Digital Millennium Copyright Act

LRW Enterprise values the intellectual property rights of others and endeavors to comply with all relevant laws. We diligently investigate and address all claims of copyright infringement by removing any Content that violates these laws.

​

To facilitate this process, we have a designated agent under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the "Act") responsible for receiving Notifications of Claimed Infringement. You may contact our agent using the following details:

​

SIO Consulting Group
1700 Northside Drive, NW

Suite #A7,5491
Atlanta, Georgia 30318

Email: support@sioconsultinggroup.com

​

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied on the Websites in a manner that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide our agent with a notice that complies with the Act's requirements. This notice should include:

1. A description of the copyrighted work that has been infringed, along with the precise location on the Websites where this work can be found.

2. Information regarding the original or an authorized copy of the copyrighted work, including its location.

3. Your contact details, including your address, phone number, and email address.

4. A statement by you asserting in good faith that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

5. A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, affirming the accuracy of the information in your notice and confirming that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.

6. An electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or an authorized representative acting on their behalf.

 

15. Controlling Law

This Agreement and any actions arising from it will be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without considering its conflict of laws principles.

​

16. Binding Arbitration

In case a dispute arises related to this Agreement, the Content, or the Websites (referred to as a "Dispute"), either party can choose to resolve it through binding arbitration, as governed by the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"). The decision to arbitrate is final and binding upon both parties. If arbitration is chosen, neither party will have the option to take the dispute to court or request a jury trial, except if one of the parties is eligible to file the claim in their local small claims court, as long as it complies with that court's rules and falls within its jurisdiction. It's important to note that arbitration differs from court proceedings, and there may be limitations on discovery and appeal rights in arbitration.

​

All Disputes will be settled by an impartial arbitrator chosen jointly by both parties. The arbitrator's decision will be conclusive, with only a restricted right of appeal as per the FAA. Arbitration will be initiated and conducted through JAMS, following their current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which can be found at www.adr.org. The arbitration may also follow the Expedited Procedures outlined in those rules or, when applicable, JAMS' Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. Both parties will be responsible for covering any JAMS filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees according to JAMS rules. The arbitrator's award may be entered as a judgment in any court with jurisdiction.

​

This clause does not prevent either party from seeking provisional remedies through a court with the appropriate jurisdiction to aid the arbitration process. The arbitration itself can be conducted in person, through document submissions, over the phone, or online. If held in person, it will occur in the U.S. county where you reside. The parties are allowed to go to court to enforce arbitration, to halt a proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment based on the arbitrator's decision.

​

Both parties commit to cooperate in good faith by voluntarily and informally exchanging all non-privileged documents and other pertinent information (including electronically stored information) related to the Dispute shortly after initiating arbitration. This Agreement does not prevent us from seeking injunctive relief in any court with the necessary jurisdiction to safeguard our proprietary interests.

 

17. Class Action Waiver

You acknowledge and accept that any arbitration or legal proceeding will solely address the dispute between you and us as individuals. To the maximum extent allowed by the law:

​

1. Arbitration or legal proceedings cannot be combined with any other dispute.

2. Disputes cannot be arbitrated or resolved using class action procedures.

3. Disputes cannot be pursued in a supposed representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other individuals.

 

In essence, you agree that any claims against us must be made in your individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or member of a class in any alleged class or representative proceeding.

​

18. Equitable Relief

You acknowledge and agree that if you breach or threaten to violate our intellectual property rights, as well as our confidential and proprietary information, we would suffer significant harm. Consequently, we have the right to seek injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement. In addition to other remedies available under this Agreement, we can approach any court with jurisdiction to request temporary, equitable, provisional, or injunctive measures that are necessary to safeguard our rights and assets while the arbitration process mentioned earlier unfolds.

​

You hereby provide your irrevocable and unconditional consent to the jurisdiction of federal and state courts in the State of Georgia, specifically in Fulton County, for any such action initiated by us.

 

19. Miscellaneous

Our failure to take action or enforce any provision in the Agreement should not be seen as a waiver of that provision or any other in this Agreement. Any waiver must be in writing to be effective and will not be considered a waiver for any other situation unless expressly agreed upon in writing by both parties.

 

This Agreement, unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing, represents the complete agreement between you and us regarding the subject matter and replaces all prior written or oral agreements, regardless of when they were made. The section headings are provided for convenience and do not carry legal significance. This Agreement will benefit our successors, assigns, licensees, and sublicensees.
