Cookies and Other Information Collection Tools
What are cookies? A cookie is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to your computer when you visit a website or use an online service. When you visit the website or use the service again, the cookie allows that website or online service to recognize your browser or device. Cookies may store unique identifiers, user preferences and other information.
Duration of Cookies. We may use “session cookies” or “persistent cookies.” Session cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser or once your session ends. Persistent cookies remain on your device for much longer or until you or your browser erase them. Persistent cookies have varying durations that are dependent on their expiration date.
What types of cookies do we use? 2Book uses:
- Necessary Cookies. These cookies are necessary for you to browse the Service and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the Service. Without these cookies, certain aspects of the Service may not be available to you.
- Preferences Cookies. These cookies collect information about how you have used the Service in the past and allow the Service to remember the choices you have made. These cookies allow us to improve how the Service works for you and tailor the Service to your preferences.
- Analytics Cookies. These cookies collect information about how you use the Service, such as which pages you most often visit on the Service, the time you spend on the Service, which links you click on, and any issues encountered. These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Service. All information collected is aggregated and do not identify you.
- Marketing Cookies. These cookies track your online activity to help deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests and measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaigns. They also limit how many times you see a certain advertisement. We may share the information collected through these cookies with others, such as advertisers.
Why do we use them? Cookies help us improve the Service by providing us with information about which parts of the Service are most popular, what actions are taken by users and what content is viewed, enabling us to analyze technical and navigational information about the Service, and helping us to detect and prevent fraud. We also use cookies and other data collection tools (such as web beacons, pixels and embedded scripts) to help improve your experience with the Service. For example, we use Google Analytics to help analyze how users use the Service. These tools use cookies to collect standard Internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Service (including IP address) is transmitted to our data collection tool service providers. This information is then used by us to evaluate visitors’ use of the Service and to compile statistical reports on website activity for 2Book. If you would like to opt-out from the use of your information by Google analytics, you may use Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on designed for this purpose.
How do I control cookies? Web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. To find out more about cookies, including how to manage and delete cookies, visit www.allaboutcookies.org. Some web browsers provide settings that allow a user to reject cookies or to alert a user when a cookie is placed on the user’s computer, tablet or mobile device. Most mobile devices also offer settings to reject mobile device identifiers. Although users are not required to accept cookies or mobile device identifiers, blocking or rejecting them may prevent access to some features available through the Service.
Interest Based Advertising
We may collect information about your online activities on our Service to provide you with advertising about products and services tailored to your individual interests. You may see certain ads on other websites because we work with advertising partners (including advertising networks) to engage in remarketing and retargeting activities. Our advertising partners allow us to target our messaging to users through demographic, interest-based and contextual means. These partners may track your online activities over time and across websites, including our Service, by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of third-party cookies and web beacons. The information our advertising partners may collect includes data about your visits to websites that participate in the relevant advertising networks, such as the pages or advertisements you view and the actions you take on the websites. This data collection takes place both on our Service and on third-party websites that participate in the ad networks.
Provided that a digital advertising services company participates in industry-developed programs designed to provide consumers choices about whether to receive targeted advertising, you may opt out of ad network interest-based advertising generally through the Network Advertising Initiative website or by visiting http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ (web-based advertising) or http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices (for mobile advertising). To learn more, please visit the websites operated by the Network Advertising Initiative and Digital Advertising Alliance at www.networkadvertising.org/choices. If we use such digital advertising service providers in our marketing efforts, opting-out using those tools does not mean that you will stop receiving ads from us. It means that you still stop receiving ads from us that have been targeted to you based on your visits and browsing activity across websites over time.
How Information is Used
We may use the information we collect for any of the following purposes:
- to provide the Service to you and to improve the Service;
- to provide, operate, improve, and personalize the products and services we offer, and to give each user a more consistent and personalized experience when interacting with us;
- to register your account;
- to determine trends in consumption of our products and determine where our products may be in demand;
- to provide you with information about products and services that we may provide that we think may be of interest to you;
- to help deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests and measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns;
- to provide you with updates about our products and services and with transactional information;
- for customer service and/or support, security (including for authentication purposes), to detect fraud or illegal activities, and for archival and backup purposes in connection with the provision of the Service;
- for analytics purposes;
- to fulfill your requests, such as those related to ordering and payment;
- to communicate with you;
- to enforce our Privacy Policy or other applicable policies;
- to comply with applicable laws or respond to a subpoena, regulation, binding order of a data protection agency, legal process, governmental request or other legal or regulatory process;
- to enforce our rights, protect our property or protect the rights, property or safety of others;
- as needed to support external auditing, compliance and corporate governance functions.
Sharing of Information
- With Third Party Service Providers Performing Services on Our Behalf. We may share your personal information with our service providers to perform the functions for which we engage them. For example, we may use third parties to host the Service or assist us in providing functionality on the Service, provide analytics on the Service, provide a chat function on the Service, provide marketing and advertising services for us, to send out emails on our behalf or process payments.
- With Our Affiliates and Subsidiaries. We may share your information with our family of brands and corporate affiliates (e.g., parent company, sister companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures or companies under common control) for our internal business purposes. However, if we do so, their use and disclosure of your personal information will be subject to this Privacy Policy.
- For Legal Purposes. We also may share information that we collect from users as needed to enforce our rights, protect our property or protect the rights, property or safety of others, or as needed to support external auditing, compliance and corporate governance functions. We will disclose personal information as we deem necessary to respond to a subpoena, regulation, binding order of a data protection agency, legal process, governmental request or other legal or regulatory process. We may also share personal information as required to pursue available remedies or limit damages we may sustain.
- Changes of Control. We reserve the right to transfer or assign the information that we have collected from users in connection with a corporate transaction, such as a divestiture, merger, consolidation, or asset sale, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.

In the interest of clarity, the license granted to 2Book shall survive termination of the Platform or your Account. 2Book does not claim ownership rights in your Provider Content and nothing in these Terms will be deemed to restrict rights that you may have to use and exploit any such Provider Content submitted, posted, uploaded, published, or transmitted on or through the Platform by you.
- You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for all Provider Content that you make available on or through the Platform. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that: (a) you either are the sole and exclusive owner of all Provider Content that you make available on or through the Platform or you have all rights, licenses, consents and releases that are necessary to grant to 2Book the rights in such Provider Content, as contemplated under these Terms; and (b) neither the Provider Content nor your posting, uploading, publication, submission or transmittal of the Provider Content or 2Book's use of your Provider Content (or any portion thereof) on, through or by means of the Platform will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party's patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, moral rights or other proprietary or intellectual property rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation. While it has no obligation to do so, you agree that 2Book may proofread, summarize or otherwise edit and/or withdraw your Provider Content, and you understand it remains your sole responsibility to monitor your Provider Content and ensure that such edited Content is accurate and consistent with your representations and warranties in these Terms.
- 2Book reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to Provider Content that we, in our sole discretion, consider to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms or otherwise harmful to the Platform or users, or for any other reason.

-
2BOOK FEES AND TAXES
- Subscription Fees. In connection with the use of 2Book's Platform, 2Book charges Providers the fees set out in the Application on a subscription basis ("Subscription Fees"). The pricing and billing cycle for such Subscription Fees will be as set forth in a pricing schedule available in connection with the Services when you subscribe. Monthly subscriptions are billed once a month and on a recurring basis. The billing day shall be on or around the monthly anniversary of the day the subscription was first purchased. From time to time, we may offer a free trial period in which no Subscription Fees are charged (“Trial Period”). During the Trial Period, New Client Fees as defined below shall still be charged.
- New Client Fee. When a User receives Pro Services from you for the first time, you will be charged a “New Client Fee” (or “Directory Marketing Fee”) as set out in our pricing sheet. New Client Fees shall be automatically deducted from any amounts paid through the Application and shall be billed directly to you in the event you receive payment outside of the Application from the User.
- Pricing Changes. We reserve the right to change our plans and pricing at any time and will attempt to notify you of the change via email. If notice of a change in pricing does not reach you because you failed to provide us with timely notice of a change in your contact information, or do not see the email notice, that change in pricing will still occur. Any dispute between you and 2Book regarding any charge, including any discount or removal of such charges, is subject to our dispute resolution policies, and any such revision of charges shall be in our sole discretion. We will attempt to pay you any disputed amounts you are owed using the method with which you made the disputed payment, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so if your payment method information is inaccurate, incomplete, or has been cancelled. If you close or deactivate your Account before we adjudicate your payment dispute, we will not be able to issue you any amounts you are owed.
- Taxes. Payments required by these Terms may be stated exclusive of all taxes, duties, levies, imposts, fines or similar governmental assessments, including sales and use taxes, value-added taxes, goods and services taxes, excise, business, service, and similar transactional taxes imposed by any jurisdiction and the interest and penalties thereon (collectively, “Taxes”). Certain jurisdictions, however, may require us to collect Taxes from you in connection with the purchase of, payment for, access to, or use of the Pro Services, and you shall be responsible for and bear Taxes associated with the purchase of, payment for, access to, or use of the Pro Services. Charges are inclusive of applicable Taxes where required by law. You hereby confirm that 2Book can determine your appropriate jurisdiction for tax purposes however it deems appropriate or as required by law, and you agree to pay taxes to 2Book when 2Book includes a charge for taxes on any invoice. You also understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining your own tax reporting and sales and use tax collection requirements in consultation with your own tax advisers, and that we cannot and do not offer specific tax advice to either Providers or Users.
-
Payments Processing
- You authorize us to charge all sums as described in these Terms for the subscription you select, to your payment method. You may elect which payment processor you would prefer to use, but our payment method must permit both the payment of and receipt of money as required by your use of the Services. All processing fees charged by your payment processor of choice will be deducted from the total cost of the Services charged to the User prior to such amounts being transferred to you. 2Book also reserves the right to deduct or holdback from the remainder of the fees collected from the User amounts necessary to resolve disputes with Users over payment for your Services or to cover any unpaid fees owed to 2Book including Subscription Fees or New Client Fees.
- If you so elect, the 2Book platform may facilitate payments between Users and Providers (“Marketplace Payments”) through our payment processing partner Stripe, but 2Book is not a party to any such Marketplace Payments and does not handle funds on behalf of Providers. Providers who receive Marketplace Payments from Users on 2Book must agree to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Services Agreement, as modified from time to time. As a condition of receiving payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide 2Book with accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize 2Book to share this information and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.
- Similarly, the 2Book platform may facilitate Marketplace Payments through Square. Providers who receive Marketplace Payments from Users on 2Book using Square must agree to the Square Terms of Service as modified from time to time. As a condition of receiving payment processing services through Square, you agree to provide 2Book with accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize 2Book to share this information and transaction information related to the Marketplace Payment with Square.
- Recurring Services. If you elect to offer Services to Users on a recurring basis, where Users prepay for a certain set of Services periodically (“Recurring Services”), you agree that you will acquire all necessary consents for the payment of any recurring fees for such Recurring Services. By charging the first payment for Recurring Services through 2Book, you represent and warrant that the User has consented to the recurring payments in compliance with all applicable law. You shall be responsible for any and all refunds or other payments to Users, 2Book will not advance funds to Users on your behalf (except that 2Book will facilitate through the payments processor).
- 2Book Gift Card Program. If you elect to opt-in to the MassageBook gift card program by so indicating in your Account, gift cards purchased by Users shall be redeemable for your Services. If you have elected to opt-in to the program, you must accept any gift cards offered as payment by a User, with no exceptions.
- Non-Circumvention Policy: As a Provider, you acknowledge and agree that a substantial portion of the compensation we receive for making the Platform available to you is collected through the New Client Fee described above. Therefore, you must use the Platform as your exclusive method to request, make, and receive the first payment for work directly or indirectly with that party or arising out of your relationship with that party. You may opt-out of this obligation with respect to each relationship with a User by paying an “Opt-Out Fee” of $100 USD for each, which shall be paid in accordance with the fee payment terms herein. Opt-Out Fees must be paid prior to the first appointment with a User, and failure to pay such Opt-Out-Fee may result in the immediate suspension or termination of your Account without notice.
- Prepayments. In the event you collect payment from Users in advance of any Pro Services having been conducted (“Prepayments”), you agree that if the Pro Services are not performed for any reason (including your inability to provide the Pro Services or cessation of your business activities), you shall immediately initiate a refund of any Prepayments using the appropriate methods for your payments processor. 2Book shall have no obligation to refund to any User any Prepayments made on your behalf.

PRIVACY
- Privacy. We respect the privacy of our Users and Providers. Our use of information that you provide to us or is transmitted by and through the Platform is subject to these Terms and our Privacy Policy as updated from time to time. As a Provider, you will be entrusted with certain Personal Identifiable Information (“PII”, as the term is defined in the Privacy Policy) about Users who receive your Pro Services. You agree to handle all such PII in accordance with applicable law and that you will not use such data to contact Users independently of the Platform (i) without their express consent, or (ii) for purposes of evading the Fees associated with the use of the Platform.
- Contacting Users. If you call, email, or send text messages to a User using the telephone number for that User available on the Platform, we may use a third-party service provider to track these text messages. We track these text messages for our own legitimate business practices, including for fraud prevention, to ensure appropriate charging of Fees, to enforce these Terms, and for reasonable quality and training purposes. As part of this process, 2Book and its service provider will receive in real time and store data about your text message, including the date and time of the text message, your phone number, and the content of the text message. Except as explicitly stated herein, we will not record or review the content of any communications that do not come into contact with the 2Book Platform unless we first obtain your permission.
- Health Information. In performing the Pro Services and using the Platform and/or Application, you may be entrusted by Users with certain information relating to their health and medical history. To the extent this information is shared with you in the context of a health care relationship (such as if the massage therapy is part of a treatment plan conducted by or on behalf of a health care provider such as a chiropractor or physical therapist), such User information may be subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). WE DO NOT VERIFY IF YOU ARE REQUIRED TO COMPLY WITH HIPAA. It is your responsibility to comply in full with all applicable law, and you hereby indemnify and hold harmless 2Book and our employees, contractors, directors, and other affiliates from any and all fines or other government penalties associated with your noncompliance with relevant regulation. Regardless of the applicability of HIPAA, you are expected to maintain in confidence any information related to the health of a User in accordance with your ethical obligations.
-
ENDORSEMENT
- No Endorsement. 2Book does not endorse any Provider, user, or any Pro Services, and 2Book is not a party to any agreements between or among users or third parties. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of the Terms or any user's use of any part of the Platform, including but not limited to any scheduling or other services. Neither 2Book nor any users of the Platform may direct or control the day-to-day activities of the other, or create or assume any obligation on behalf of the other. Providers are required by these Terms to provide accurate information, and although 2Book may undertake additional checks and processes designed to help verify or check the identities or backgrounds of users, we do not make any representations about, confirm, or endorse any user or their purported identity or background, regardless of the specific 2Book services they are using or any involvement by 2Book personnel in providing or scheduling those services.
- Designations. Any reference on the Platform to a user being licensed or credentialed in some manner, or "badged," "best of," "top," "background checked" (or similar language) designations indicates only that the user has completed a relevant account process or met user review standards, and does not represent anything else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by 2Book and is not verification of their identity and whether they or their Pro Services are licensed, insured, trustworthy, safe or suitable. Instead, any such description is intended to be useful information for you to evaluate when you make your own decisions about the identity and suitability of others whom you contact or interact with via the Platform. You should always exercise responsibility, due diligence and care when deciding whether to have any interaction with any other user.
- Providers may compensate 2Book to “Promote” themselves in search results and therefore rank higher. Any such Providers will be clearly designated in applicable search results as “Promoted” or with a similar designation. 2Book may impose certain quality-related standards for Providers to qualify as “Promoted”, which standards may be enforced and/or changed at any time.

-
DISPUTE RESOLUTION - ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
- Applicability of FAA. You and 2Book agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions. This Section is intended to be interpreted broadly and governs any and all disputes between us, including but not limited to claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; claims that arose before these Terms or any prior agreement (including, but not limited to, claims related to advertising); and claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms. The only disputes excluded from this broad prohibition are the litigation of certain intellectual property and small court claims, as provided below.
-
Agreement to Arbitration. By agreeing to these Terms, you agree to resolve any and all disputes with 2Book as follows:
- Initial Dispute Resolution. Most disputes can be resolved without resort to litigation by contacting our support team at the contact information below. Except for intellectual property and small claims court claims, the parties agree to use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation with the 2Book support department, and good faith negotiations shall be a condition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
- Binding Arbitration. If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or previous versions of these Terms (including the Terms' or Privacy Policy's formation, performance, and breach), the parties' relationship with each other, and/or your use of the Platform shall be finally settled by binding arbitration, as described below.
- Where the relief sought is $10,000 or less and you do not wish to bring the claim in small claims court, the arbitration will be conducted online by an online arbitration provider of our choosing in accordance with their applicable Arbitration Rules & Procedures effective at the time a claim is made. Currently, to start, you may initiate arbitration proceedings on the FairClaims website. You are responsible for your own attorneys' fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.
- Where the relief sought is $10,001 or more, resolution shall be in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s commercial arbitration rules for claims. To start an arbitration you must do the following: (a) write a Demand for Arbitration that includes a description of the claim and the amount of damages you seek to recover to 2Book at the address set out in the contact section below, care of the Legal Department.
- The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms or the Privacy Policy, including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms or Privacy Policy is void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, or the question of waiver by litigation conduct. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator's award shall be written and shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. The parties understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
- Location of Arbitration. You agree to conduct all arbitration in Charleston County, South Carolina.
-
Class Action Waiver. The parties further agree that the arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND 2BOOK AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
- Exception: Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties' decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring enforcement actions, validity determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy or unauthorized use of intellectual property in state or federal court or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights ("intellectual property rights" means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court's jurisdiction.
- 30-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending (from the email address you use on 2Book) written notice of your decision to opt out with the subject line, "ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT." The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of the later of the Effective Date of these Terms or your first use of the Platform; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, 2Book also will not be bound by them.
- Changes to This Section. 2Book will provide thirty (30) days' notice of any changes affecting the substance of this Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section by posting updated Terms, sending you a message, or otherwise notifying you when you are logged into your account.
- Changes to this section will otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day. If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection on "Changes to This Section" is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled “Arbitration and Class Action Waiver,” and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section in existence after you began using the Platform.
- Survival. This Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section shall survive any termination of your Account or the Platform.
- Third-Party Beneficiary. You and 2Book acknowledge that any third party consumer reporting agency that 2Book uses to perform background checks on Providers is an express and intended third party beneficiary of this arbitration provision and as such, the terms of this Arbitration provision will inure to the benefit of the consumer reporting agencies and may be enforced by them. Accordingly, you agree that any dispute that arises between you and a consumer reporting agency that relates to or arises out of these Terms or any aspect of your relationship with 2Book will be resolved by binding arbitration. If any court or arbitrator determines that this third-party beneficiary subsection is void or unenforceable for any reason, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled “Arbitration and Class Action Waiver,” and the remainder of the section shall remain enforceable, meaning that the class action waiver and the mutual obligation to resolve disputes between you and 2Book through binding arbitration remains enforceable.
-
GENERAL
- Force Majeure. Other than payment obligations, neither 2Book nor you shall be liable to the other for any delay or failure in performance under the Terms arising out of a cause beyond its control and without its fault or negligence. Such causes may include but are not limited to fires, floods, earthquakes, strikes, unavailability of necessary utilities, blackouts, acts of God, acts of declared or undeclared war, acts of regulatory agencies, or national disasters.
- Governing Law. The Terms and the relationship between you and 2Book shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against 2Book that is not subject to arbitration must be resolved by a federal, state, or local court located in Charleston County, South Carolina, and you hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of the same. You hereby waive any and all jurisdictional and venue defenses otherwise available.
- No Third-Party Beneficiaries. You agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms, there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms.
- Contacting You and E-SIGN Consent. You agree that 2Book may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to the Terms, by email, regular mail, or postings on the Platform. With your consent, 2Book, Users, Providers, or other individuals may also contact you by telephone or through text messages. If you have agreed to receive text messages or telephone calls from 2Book, Users, Providers, or other individuals you also consent to the use of an electronic record to document your agreement. You may withdraw your consent to the use of the electronic record by sending an email with "Revoke Electronic Consent" in the subject line. To view and retain a copy of this disclosure or any information regarding your enrollment in this program, you will need (a) a device (such as a computer or mobile phone) with a web browser and Internet access; and (b) either a printer or storage space on such device. For a free paper copy, or to update our records of your contact information, send an email to us at the address below with contact information and the address for delivery.
- Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices or additional terms and conditions or policies published by 2Book on the Platform, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and 2Book concerning the Platform or Pro Services obtained through the Platform. Except as explicitly stated herein, if any provision of the Terms is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of the Terms, which shall remain in full force and effect.
- Waiver. No waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and 2Book's failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
- Interpretation. The section headings in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Any use of the word “including” shall be construed to mean “including but not limited to.”
