6.1.
User Content Generally. Certain features of the Community may permit users to submit, upload, publish, broadcast, or otherwise transmit ("Post") content to the Community, including messages, reviews, photos, video or audio (including sound or voice recordings and musical recordings embodied in the video or audio), images, folders, data, text, and any other works of authorship or other works ("User Content"). You retain any copyright and other proprietary rights that you may hold in the User Content that you Post to the Community, subject to the licenses granted in these Terms.

All of the rights you grant in these Terms are provided on a through-to-the-audience basis, meaning the owners or operators of external services will not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User Content Posted or otherwise used on external services via the Community. You agree to pay all monies owing to any person or entity resulting from Posting your User Content and from Community Owner's or Service Provider's exercise of the license set forth in this Section.
6.3.
You Must Have Rights to the Content You Post; User Content Representations and Warranties. You must not Post User Content if you are not the owner of or are not fully authorized to grant rights in all of the elements of that User Content including in all ambient music and underlying musical works embodied in any sound recording. Community Owner disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Content. You are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of providing User Content via the Community. By providing User Content via the Community, you affirm, represent, and warrant to us that:
(a)
you are the Community Owner and owner of the User Content, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize Community Owner and users of the Community to use and distribute your User Content as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this Section, in the manner contemplated by Community Owner, Service Provider, the Community, and these Terms;
(b)
your User Content, and the Posting or other use of your User Content as contemplated by these Terms, does not and will not: (i) infringe, violate, misappropriate, or otherwise breach any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property, contract, or proprietary right; (ii) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person; or (iii) cause Community Owner or Service Provider to violate any law or regulation or require Community Owner or Service Provider to obtain any further licenses from or pay any royalties, fees, compensation or other amounts or provide any attribution to any third parties; and

6.4.
User Content Disclaimer. Community Owner and Service Provider are under no obligation to edit or control User Content that you or other users Post and will not be in any way responsible or liable for User Content. Community Owner or Service Provider may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any User Content that in our sole judgment violates these Terms, is alleged to violate the rights of third parties, or is otherwise objectionable. You understand that, when using the Community, you will be exposed to User Content from a variety of sources and acknowledge that User Content may be inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable. You agree to waive, and do waive, any legal or equitable right or remedy you have or may have against Community Owner or Service Provider with respect to User Content. If notified by a user or content owner that User Content allegedly does not conform to these Terms, Community Owner may (or may permit Service Provider to) investigate the allegation and determine whether to remove the User Content, which Community Owner and Service Provider reserve the right to do at any time, without notice, and for any reason. For clarity, Community Owner does not permit infringing activities on the Community.

You acknowledge and agree that Community Owner and Service Provider reserve the right to, and may from time to time, monitor any and all information transmitted or received through the Community for operational and other purposes. If at any time Community Owner or Service Provider choose to monitor the content, then Community Owner and Service Provider still assume no responsibility or liability for content or any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of content. During monitoring, information may be examined, recorded, copied, and used in accordance with
Community Owner's Privacy Policy. Community Owner and Service Provider may block, filter, mute, remove or disable access to any User Content uploaded to or transmitted through the Community without any liability to the user who Posted such User Content to the Community or to any other users of the Community.
6.6.
Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation. Community Owner and Service Provider prohibit any sexual content or suggestive content, and predatory or inappropriate behavior involving minors (i.e. users under 18 years old) or someone who appears to be a minor. This includes sharing, offering, or asking for child exploitation content, including child sexual abuse material (CSAM). If you are unsure about a piece of content involving a minor, do not share it. To report sexual, suggestive, or inappropriate behavior minors, you can use the in-line report feature on the website or app. When child sexual exploitation content is identified, the violative content is removed as soon as possible and the related account is banned. If Community Owner and Service Provider confirm the presence of CSAM, we take the steps required by law to preserve and refer the relevant content to appropriate authorities. In the United States, federal law requires that U.S.-based electronic service providers report instances of apparent CSAM to the
National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). NCMEC coordinates reports with global law enforcement agencies in over 120 countries through its partner organization, the International Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

13.
DISCLAIMERS; NO WARRANTIES BY COMMUNITY OWNER
13.1.
THE COMMUNITY AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE COMMUNITY ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND ON AN "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. COMMUNITY OWNER AND SERVICE PROVIDER DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE COMMUNITY AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE COMMUNITY, INCLUDING: (a) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND (b) ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE. COMMUNITY OWNER AND ITS SERVICE PROVIDER DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE COMMUNITY OR ANY PORTION OF THE COMMUNITY, OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT OFFERED THROUGH THE COMMUNITY, WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR FREE OF ERRORS, VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, AND COMMUNITY OWNER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THOSE ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED.
13.2.
NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE COMMUNITY, SPECIFIED ENTITIES, OR SERVICE PROVIDER, OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE COMMUNITY WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ANY OF THE SPECIFIED ENTITIES OR THE COMMUNITY THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM THE COMMUNITY AND YOUR DEALING WITH ANY OTHER COMMUNITY USER. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU USE ANY PORTION OF THE COMMUNITY AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND THAT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY (INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNITY) OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, INCLUDING USER CONTENT.
13.3.
THE LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS IN THIS SECTION 13 (DISCLAIMERS; NO WARRANTIES BY COMMUNITY OWNER) APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. Community Owner does not disclaim any warranty or other right that Community Owner is prohibited from disclaiming under applicable law.
14.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
14.1.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE SPECIFIED ENTITIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE COMMUNITY OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT ON THE COMMUNITY, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT ANY SPECIFIED ENTITY OR SERVICE PROVIDER HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE.
14.2.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 15.5 (COMMENCING ARBITRATION) AND 15.7 (ARBITRATION RELIEF) AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE SPECIFIED ENTITIES TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE ANY PORTION OF THE COMMUNITY OR OTHERWISE UNDER THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO COMMUNITY OWNER FOR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE COMMUNITY IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (B) US$100.
14.3.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, YOU AND COMMUNITY OWNER AGREE THAT SERVICE PROVIDER IS NOT A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT AND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SERVICE PROVIDER WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. YOU AGREE THAT IF YOU BRING A CLAIM AGAINST SERVICE PROVIDER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH CLAIM IS SUBJECT TO THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE SET FORTH IN SECTION 15, AND SERVICE PROVIDER WILL BE DEEMED SUBSTITUTED FOR COMMUNITY OWNER THEREUNDER SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH CLAIM.
14.4.
EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THESE TERMS. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14 (LIMITATION OF LIABILITY) WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
15.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION
15.1.
Generally. Except as described in Section 15.2 (Exceptions) and 15.3 (Opt-Out), you and Community Owner agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms, the Community, or communications from us will be resolved through binding arbitration. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, is less formal than a court proceeding, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. Any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement will be resolved by the arbitrator.
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND COMMUNITY OWNER ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
15.2.
Exceptions. Although we are agreeing to arbitrate most disputes between us, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
15.3.
Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 15 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending a letter to Voics, Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, Wyoming, USA that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Community, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration ("Opt-Out Notice"). Once Community Owner receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 15 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 16.3 (Governing Law). The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
15.4.
Arbitrator. This arbitration agreement, and any arbitration between us, is subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and will be administered by the JAMS under the rules applicable to consumer disputes (collectively, "JAMS Rules") as modified by these Terms. The JAMS Rules and filing forms are available online at www.jamsadr.com, by calling the JAMS at +1-800-352-5267 or by contacting Community Owner.
15.5.
Commencing Arbitration. Before initiating arbitration, a party must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail ("Notice of Arbitration"). Community Owner's address for Notice is: Voics, Wyoming, USA. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) identify the name or account number of the party making the claim; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or Community Owner may commence an arbitration proceeding. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Community Owner will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than US$10,000 or if Community Owner has received 25 or more similar demands for arbitration, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the JAMS Rules. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules and the other party may seek reimbursement for any fees paid to JAMS.
15.6.
Arbitration Proceedings. Any arbitration hearing will take place in the county and state of your residence unless we agree otherwise or, if the claim is for US$10,000 or less (and does not seek injunctive relief), you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a telephonic or video hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules in the county (or parish) of your residence. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Community Owner must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based.
15.7.
Arbitration Relief. Except as provided in Section 15.8 (No Class Actions), the arbitrator can award any relief that would be available if the claims had been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Community Owner before an arbitrator was selected, Community Owner will pay to you the higher of: (a) the amount awarded by the arbitrator and (b) US$10,000. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding on all parties, except (1) for judicial review expressly permitted by law or (2) if the arbitrator's award includes an award of injunctive relief against a party, in which case that party shall have the right to seek judicial review of the injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction that shall not be bound by the arbitrator's application or conclusions of law. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
15.8.
No Class Actions. YOU AND COMMUNITY OWNER 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. Further, unless both you and Community Owner agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
15.9.
Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Community Owner makes any substantive change to this arbitration provision, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Community Owner's address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with Community Owner will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
15.10.
Enforceability. If Section 15.8 (No Class Actions) or the entirety of this Section 15 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) is found to be unenforceable, or if Community Owner receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section 15 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 16.3 (Governing Law) will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
16.
MISCELLANEOUS
16.1.
Third-Party Beneficiary. The Community is powered by a technology platform provided by CircleCo, Inc. ("Service Provider"). You and we acknowledge and agree that (a) Service Provider is an intended third-party beneficiary to these Terms, (b) is entitled to rights and benefits hereunder, and (c) may enforce these Terms against you as if it were an original party hereto.
16.2.
General Terms. These Terms, including the
Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Community Owner regarding your use of the Community. These Terms or any rights under these Terms, may not be assigned either by us or by you in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our Service Provider's prior written consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself.

Voics LLC Terms of Service
(All Programs, Services, and Products)
Effective Date: 10th October 2024Issued by: Voics LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States of America Jurisdiction: Wyoming, USA

1.3. By accessing or engaging with any Voics Offering, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be legally bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not access, use, or engage with any Voics content, services, or platforms.

2.3. Voics LLC reserves full discretion over how Services and Products are delivered, including but not limited to staffing, tools, software, communication channels, scheduling, and format of deliverables.
3. Engagement Model
3.1. All Voics LLC Offerings operate on a monthly cycle basis, with timelines, team availability, and resources allocated accordingly.
3.2. Voics LLC does not guarantee a fixed number of deliverables per calendar or billing period. Our Programs and Services are built around strategy, execution support, and problem-solving, not a quota of items.
3.3. Any unused sessions, deliverables, or opportunities within a cycle may be forfeited if the Client fails to participate or engage. Extensions, rescheduling, or rollover of unused work are offered solely at the discretion of Voics LLC and are not guaranteed. Any such forfeiture resulting from the Client's failure to participate, respond, attend, provide requested information, materials or approvals, or otherwise cooperate with the delivery of the Offering shall not constitute non-performance by Voics LLC and shall not give rise to any right of refund, credit, set-off or cancellation of amounts otherwise due.
4. Client Responsibilities
4.1. Client agrees to participate actively, provide necessary inputs, respond promptly to communication, attend scheduled calls or sessions, and make a good-faith effort to support the execution of agreed-upon work.
4.2. Client is solely responsible for implementing and executing any strategic recommendations, deliverables, or assets provided by Voics. Results are dependent on the Client’s decisions, team, and follow-through.
4.3. Any delays caused by lack of response, missing materials, late approvals, or unclear communication will not be attributed to Voics LLC and may result in work being paused or deprioritized.Any applicable delivery period shall be reasonably extended to take account of such Client-caused delay, including any reasonable period required for Voics LLC to remobilize its team or resources. No refund, credit or release from any payment obligation shall arise as a result of delay or non-performance caused, directly or indirectly, by the Client.
5. No Refund Policy
5.1. Voics LLC maintains a strict no-refund policy for all Offerings. This applies to all Programs, Services, Products, subscriptions, or custom engagements.Except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed in writing by Voics LLC or required by applicable non-waivable law, all fees paid or payable are final and non-refundable once the applicable Offering has commenced. The only exception is the conditional performance guarantee expressly set out in Section 5B, which applies solely to the Incubator Sprint and solely on the terms and conditions stated in that Section.
5.1.1. For purposes of these Terms, an Offering shall be deemed to have commenced once Voics LLC has taken any material step in connection with the engagement, including onboarding the Client, allocating personnel or resources, undertaking planning or strategy, granting access to any platform, community, system, information, training or materials, scheduling or conducting calls or sessions, creating or commencing work on deliverables, or otherwise beginning performance of the Offering
5.2. Refunds will not be provided under any circumstances, including but not limited to:
partial or full non-participation by the Client;
failure or refusal by the Client to attend scheduled calls, sessions or meetings;
failure by the Client to provide information, content, documentation, approvals, access or other materials reasonably required by Voics LLC;
voluntary cancellation, withdrawal or abandonment by the Client;
dissatisfaction based upon preference, style, expectation or subjective assessment;
perceived lack of value or return on investment;
failure to achieve any anticipated revenue, profit, lead generation, conversion, audience growth, business growth or other commercial result;
change in Client priorities, business strategy, management, staffing, financial circumstances, budget, availability or direction;
failure by the Client or its personnel to implement or follow recommendations, strategies or systems provided by Voics LLC;
circumstances caused by the Client's employees, contractors, representatives, customers, suppliers or other third parties;
unused sessions, opportunities, access or resources resulting from the Client's failure to use or participate in them;
dissatisfaction with any deliverable after that deliverable has been accepted, approved, implemented, published, distributed, deployed, commercially used or otherwise materially utilised by the Client; or
termination arising from a material breach of these Terms by the Client.
For the avoidance of doubt, an allegation by the Client that Voics LLC has breached these Terms shall not, by itself, create any automatic right to a refund. Any alleged deficiency or breach shall be dealt with in accordance with Clauses 5.5 to 5.8 below.
5.3. All resources, team allocation, intellectual property, and planning begin at the point of engagement. For this reason, fees paid are final, non-transferable, and non-refundable.
5.4. The Client shall notify Voics LLC in writing of any material deficiency in a deliverable within five (5) business days of delivery, identifying the specific issue complained of.
If no such notice is given within that period, or if the Client approves, publishes, implements, deploys or otherwise materially uses the deliverable, the relevant deliverable shall be deemed accepted and shall not thereafter form the basis of a refund claim
5.5. A Client alleging that Voics LLC has materially failed to provide an expressly agreed part of an Offering must notify Voics LLC in writing and identify with reasonable specificity the particular obligation alleged not to have been performed and the nature of the alleged failure. A general statement of dissatisfaction, perceived lack of value or failure to achieve an anticipated result shall not constitute notice of material non-performance.
5.6. Right to Cure
Where the Client provides valid notice of an alleged material failure under Clause 5.5, Voics LLC shall have a reasonable opportunity to cure the matter by completing, correcting, replacing or re-performing the affected Service or deliverable.
Voics LLC shall ordinarily have ten (10) business days following receipt of sufficient written particulars to remedy the matter or commence the required remedial action. Where the nature of the issue reasonably requires additional time, Voics LLC shall be entitled to a further reasonable period to complete the cure.
Where the alleged deficiency is remedied, no refund shall arise in respect of that deficiency.
5.7. Limited Refund for Uncured Material Non-Performance
If Voics LLC materially fails to provide an expressly agreed and material part of an Offering and fails to remedy that failure following valid notice under Clause 5.5 and the applicable cure period under Clause 5.6, any refund or credit that may become due shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be limited to the reasonable portion of the applicable fees directly attributable to the specific part of the Offering that was not performed.
No refund shall extend to amounts attributable to Services, work, access, materials, resources or deliverables already provided, performed, accessed, accepted or materially used by or for the benefit of the Client.
5.8. Cancellation and Withdrawal
The Client's decision to cancel, withdraw, discontinue participation, cease communication or otherwise stop using an Offering shall not retrospectively create any right to a refund, credit or reimbursement.
Cancellation or withdrawal shall not affect any payment obligation which, under these Terms or the applicable engagement, survives cancellation or termination.
5.9. No Set-Off or Withholding
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Client shall not withhold, deduct or set off any otherwise due and undisputed payment solely because the Client has submitted a complaint, refund request or dispute concerning another part of the Offering.
5A. Payments and Payment Plans
5A.1. General Payment TermsAll fees for Voics LLC Offerings, whether paid in full, through recurring billing or under an approved payment plan, are binding and subject to the refund provisions contained in Section 5. Payment obligations are not contingent upon Client usage, participation, satisfaction, implementation, commercial results or return on investment.
5A.2. Payment Plan Authorization If Voics LLC offers a payment plan for any Program, Service, or Product, the Client agrees to complete all scheduled payments in full, in accordance with the agreed schedule at the time of enrollment. Entering into a payment plan constitutes a binding financial commitment to pay the entire amount owed, regardless of Client participation or results.Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, where an Offering is sold for a fixed total price, any payment plan constitutes only an accommodation allowing the Client to pay that fixed contractual price in installments. It does not convert the Offering into a cancellable month-to-month subscription, and each installment does not constitute a separate purchase of monthly Services.
5A.3. Missed Payments
3-Day Rule: If a payment is not received within three (3) days of the due date, Client’s account and access to all Voics Offerings (including calls, communities, resources, and deliverables) will be automatically suspended until payment is made in full.
7-Day Rule: If a payment is not received within seven (7) days of the due date, Voics LLC reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to permanently off-board the Client, revoke access, and terminate the engagement.
Reinstatement Penalty: If Voics LLC elects to reinstate a Client after off-boarding, a penalty fee equal to ten percent (10%) of the missed installment(s) will be added to the outstanding balance, payable immediately in order to restore access.
5A.4. Acceleration ClauseIn the event of an uncured payment default following expiry of the applicable payment period under Clause 5A.3, Voics LLC reserves the right to declare the entire outstanding balance of the applicable payment plan immediately due and payable., Voics LLC reserves the right to declare the entire outstanding balance of the payment plan immediately due and payable. Failure to remit full payment may result in legal action, collections, and recovery of attorney fees and costs.
5A.5. Access Suspension Voics LLC shall not be liable for any loss of access, results, or opportunities during periods of suspension due to Client’s non-payment. Suspension or termination of access does not relieve Client of payment obligations.
5A.6. Automatic Billing Authorization By enrolling in any Voics LLC Offering with recurring payments or payment plans, Client authorizes Voics LLC (and its third-party payment processors) to automatically charge the payment method provided for all installments, renewals, penalties, and outstanding balances, until the balance is paid in full. Client remains responsible for ensuring payment methods are valid and funded.
5A.7. No Early Termination of Payment Plans Entering into a payment plan constitutes a full commitment to the total balance owed. Cancellation, termination, or withdrawal from the Program or Service does not release the Client from financial responsibility for the full agreed amount.
5A.8. Waiver of Chargebacks The Client agrees to raise any billing, payment or refund dispute directly with Voics LLC in the first instance and to provide Voics LLC with a reasonable opportunity to investigate and respond.
The Client shall not knowingly initiate or maintain any false, misleading, fraudulent or bad-faith chargeback or payment dispute, including any allegation of non-delivery in respect of Services, access or deliverables which the Client received, accessed, accepted or materially used.
A chargeback or payment dispute shall not, by itself, cancel this Agreement or extinguish any payment obligation otherwise lawfully due.
Voics LLC may provide its payment processor, acquiring bank, card issuer, financial institution, collection provider, arbitrator or other competent authority with relevant evidence of the transaction and performance, including these Terms, payment records, communications, attendance records, access records, delivery records, approvals and evidence of the Client's use or implementation of the Services or deliverables.
A knowingly false, fraudulent or bad-faith chargeback shall constitute a material breach of these Terms, and Voics LLC reserves all rights and remedies available to it, including recovery of amounts properly due and reasonable collection or legal costs to the extent permitted by applicable law.
5A.9. Collections and Attorney Fees If payment is not made in accordance with the agreed schedule, Voics LLC reserves the right to assign delinquent accounts to collections. Client agrees to be responsible for all reasonable collection costs, attorney fees, and court costs incurred by Voics LLC in recovering amounts owed.
5A.10. Interest on Overdue Payments All overdue balances shall accrue interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, or the maximum rate permitted by Wyoming law, whichever is lower, from the due date until paid in full.
5B. Conditional Performance Guarantee (Incubator Sprint)
5B.1. Application. This Section 5B applies only to a Client who has enrolled in and paid for the Voics LLC offering known as the Incubator Sprint (the "Sprint"). It applies to no other Program, Service or Product, and it confers no right, benefit, expectation or precedent in favour of any other Client or any other Offering.
5B.2. Relationship to Sections 5 and 10. The Sprint is the only Offering in respect of which Voics LLC offers any conditional refund. Where a provision of Section 5 (No Refund Policy) or Section 10 (Disclaimer of Results) is inconsistent with this Section 5B, this Section 5B shall prevail, but only in respect of the Sprint, and only in favour of a Client who has satisfied every Qualifying Condition in Clause 5B.5. In every other respect Sections 5, 5A and 10 continue to apply in full, including to a Client enrolled in the Sprint whose guarantee has been voided under Clause 5B.7.
5B.3. The Guarantee. If the Client satisfies every Qualifying Condition set out in Clause 5B.5 in every Week of the Guarantee Period, and has not reached the Target by the end of the Guarantee Period, Voics LLC shall refund the Program Fees in accordance with Clauses 5B.9 and 5B.10. The guarantee pays out only for a Client who has completed every condition and still fallen short. It is not a satisfaction guarantee, a trial period, or a right of cancellation.
5B.4. Definitions. In this Section 5B:
(a) "Start Date" means the earlier of the date on which the Client is granted access to the Sprint and the date on which the Client is granted access to the Incubator.
(b) "Guarantee Period" means the three (3) consecutive calendar months beginning on the Start Date.
(c) "Week" means each consecutive period of seven (7) days beginning on the Start Date and continuing to the end of the Guarantee Period.
(d) "Target" means $25,000 or more in cash actually collected and retained by the Client within a single calendar month falling wholly inside the Guarantee Period, from new clients closed during the Guarantee Period, on an offer built or improved with Voics LLC as part of the Sprint. Revenue from existing clients, recurring revenue from clients acquired before the Start Date, contracted but uncollected amounts, amounts subsequently refunded or charged back, loans, investment, grants, and revenue from any other business, offer or income source are all excluded.
(e) "Program Fees" means the amounts actually received and retained by Voics LLC from the Client in respect of the Sprint, and nothing further.
(f) "Eligibility Band" means monthly revenue of between $0 and $17,000 per month at the point of enrolment. The Client warrants that its revenue at enrolment falls within the Eligibility Band. A warranty that is untrue when given voids the guarantee under Clause 5B.7.
5B.5. Qualifying Conditions. To qualify for the refund, the Client must satisfy every one of the following conditions in every Week of the Guarantee Period. These conditions are mechanical and objective. They are not a matter of judgement, discretion, interpretation, good faith or reasonable endeavours. Failure to satisfy any single condition in any single Week voids the guarantee in its entirety and permanently, whether or not the failure is the Client's fault, and whether or not the Client subsequently makes up the shortfall.
(a) Coaching calls. Attend at least four (4) coaching calls in each Week.
(b) Training. Complete the program material week by week in the order directed, with all material completed by the end of Week ten (10).
(c) Wins. Post the Client's progress or results in the Client community at least once in each Week.
(d) Accountability. Complete and submit the weekly accountability tracker in full, before the end of the Week to which it relates.
(e) Offer. Run the offer built or improved with Voics LLC, to the market and in the manner directed, for the entire Guarantee Period. The Client shall not materially change the offer, the price or the target market without the prior written approval of Voics LLC.
(f) Outreach. Send at least three hundred (300) direct outreach messages to qualified prospects in each Week. Each message must be individually sent to a distinct recipient. Automated, purchased, scraped, duplicated, bulk-broadcast, mass-tagged or bot-generated messages do not count towards this total, and messages sent to the same recipient in the same Week count once.
(g) Content. Publish at least seven (7) pieces of original content in each Week, across the channels and in the formats directed by Voics LLC. Reposted, recycled, duplicated or purely promotional posts do not count towards this total.
(h) Sales calls. Hold at least five (5) sales calls in each Week from the beginning of Week three (3) until the end of the Guarantee Period. A sales call means a scheduled call with a qualified prospect, booked through the booking system directed by Voics LLC, at which the Client's offer is presented. A call booked through that system which the Client attended counts towards the total even where the prospect cancelled or failed to attend. Calls with existing clients, team members, peers, friends, family or other program participants do not count.
(i) Account manager check-in. Complete a check-in with the Voics LLC account manager assigned to the Client in each Week, at the time scheduled by Voics LLC. A check-in that the Client fails to attend, cancels, or moves outside the Week to which it relates does not count, and a check-in cannot be carried forward or combined with the check-in for any other Week.
(j) One to one sessions. Attend all four (4) one to one sessions with the senior Voics LLC team made available to the Client during the Guarantee Period, at the times scheduled. A session that the Client fails to attend, cancels within twenty four (24) hours, or does not rebook and complete within fourteen (14) days does not count, and no session may be substituted, transferred or taken by any person other than the Client.
5B.6. Evidence and verification. The burden of proving that every condition was met in every Week rests entirely with the Client. Performance must be recorded contemporaneously, in the Week to which it relates, in the accountability tracker and in the systems directed by Voics LLC, including the Voics-directed booking and sales system. Activity that is not recorded in the Week to which it relates is deemed not to have occurred, and retrospective reconstruction, backdating or later attestation will not be accepted. Voics LLC may require the Client to produce screenshots, exports, platform access, call recordings or other supporting records, and failure to produce them within seven (7) days of a written request means the relevant condition is deemed not to have been met. Where the Client's records and the records of Voics LLC conflict, the records of Voics LLC shall be determinative in the absence of manifest error.
5B.7. Automatic voiding. In addition to any failure of a Qualifying Condition, the guarantee is void immediately and permanently, without notice, if any of the following occurs at any point during the Guarantee Period:
(a) any payment due to Voics LLC is missed, late or unpaid, or access is suspended or terminated under Clause 5A.3, and any Week in which access is suspended is deemed a Week in which every condition was failed;
(b) the Client pauses, defers, freezes or otherwise interrupts participation, other than with the prior written agreement of Voics LLC recording the effect on the Guarantee Period;
(c) the Client materially breaches any provision of these Terms, including Section 6 (confidentiality), Section 7 (intellectual property), Section 8 (non-disparagement) and Section 8A (non-solicitation);
(d) the Client submits reporting, tracker entries or supporting evidence that is false, inflated, backdated or materially misleading;
(e) the Client initiates a chargeback or payment dispute, whether or not it is subsequently withdrawn;
(f) the warranty at Clause 5B.4(f) was untrue when given; or
(g) the Client ceases to trade, sells the business, or materially changes the business to which the Sprint relates.
5B.8. Where the Target is reached. If the Client reaches the Target at any point during the Guarantee Period, the guarantee is satisfied and discharged in full. No refund arises, no partial, pro-rata or proportionate refund arises, and no credit arises. The Client keeps all revenue generated. For the avoidance of doubt, reaching the Target once discharges the guarantee even if the Client does not reach it again in any subsequent month.
5B.9. Claim procedure. A Client claiming under this Section 5B must submit a written claim to Voics LLC within fourteen (14) days of the end of the Guarantee Period, enclosing complete evidence of compliance with every Qualifying Condition for every Week. A claim submitted after that window, or submitted without complete evidence, is not a valid claim and no refund shall arise. Voics LLC shall review a valid claim and respond in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt. Where a claim is approved, the refund shall be paid within thirty (30) days of approval, to the original payment method. A Client who has not paid the Program Fees in full, including a Client on a payment plan with any outstanding balance, may not submit a valid claim.
5B.10. Scope of the refund. Any refund under this Section 5B is limited to the Program Fees and shall not extend to advertising or media spend, software, subscriptions or tools, third party contractors, staff or agencies engaged by the Client, travel, accommodation, event or mastermind tickets, payment processing fees, currency conversion costs, taxes, any amount not actually received by Voics LLC, or the fees for any other Voics LLC Offering. Payment of a refund is conditional on the Client immediately ceasing all use of, and permanently deleting, all Voics LLC materials, frameworks, templates and recordings, and on the termination of all access under Clause 9.3. Payment of a refund is made in full and final settlement of all claims arising out of the Sprint.
5B.11. Race bonus. Any bonus offered to the first Client to reach the Target, including a mastermind ticket, is awarded at the sole discretion of Voics LLC, is personal to that Client, is non-transferable, and carries no cash alternative. It is forfeited on any breach of these Terms.
5B.12. Payment obligations unaffected. The existence of this guarantee does not suspend, reduce, defer or make conditional any payment obligation of the Client. All amounts remain due in full and on schedule under Sections 5 and 5A throughout the Guarantee Period, and the Client shall not withhold or set off any amount on the basis of an actual or anticipated claim under this Section 5B.
5B.13. No guarantee of results. This Section 5B is a conditional refund undertaking and nothing more. It is not a representation, warranty, projection, promise or guarantee that the Client will achieve the Target or any other financial, commercial or operational result. Section 10 continues to apply in full.
6. Confidentiality
6.1. Both Parties agree to maintain strict confidentiality regarding all sensitive, proprietary, strategic, and personal information exchanged during the engagement.
6.2. Client shall not share any materials, strategies, documents, recordings, internal Slack discussions, systems, or advice provided by Voics with third parties without written consent.
6.3. This clause shall remain in effect indefinitely and survive the termination of the engagement.
7. Intellectual Property
7.1. All documents, SOPs, templates, tools, coaching frameworks, strategy decks, systems maps, video scripts, content plans, and other assets created or provided by Voics LLC are the exclusive intellectual property of Voics LLC.
7.2. Client is granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use these materials for internal business purposes only.
7.3. Client shall not reproduce, modify, rebrand, distribute, license, or sell any Voics materials without written permission.
8. Non-Disparagement
8.1. The Client agrees not to speak or publish negatively about Voics LLC, its representatives, services, processes, or brand, online or offline, at any point during or after the engagement.
8.2. This includes, but is not limited to: social media posts, direct messages, public commentary, private Slack groups, community chats, podcast episodes, or internal masterminds.
8.3. Reasonable complaints made privately in a professional, legal, or arbitration context are exempt from this clause.
8.4. This Section 8 survives termination, cancellation, completion or expiry of the engagement and continues to bind the Client for a period of twenty four (24) months afterwards. Nothing in this Section prevents the Client from making a truthful statement required by law, by a regulator, or in the course of legal or arbitration proceedings.
8A. Non-Solicitation
8A.1. Definitions. In this Section 8A, "Protected Person" means any other Client, program participant, community member, mastermind or event attendee, applicant, lead, prospect, subscriber or user of Voics LLC or of Aura A.I. LLC, and any employee, contractor, coach, account manager or other representative of either company, in each case with whom the Client came into contact, or of whom the Client became aware, through the engagement.
8A.2. Restricted period. The obligations in this Section 8A apply throughout the engagement and for a period of twelve (12) months following its termination, cancellation, completion or expiry, however it comes to an end.
8A.3. Non-solicitation of clients, members and users. The Client shall not, directly or indirectly, whether alone or with or on behalf of any other person, solicit, approach, canvass, recruit, entice or attempt to entice away any Protected Person for the purpose of offering, selling, promoting or delivering any program, service, product, coaching, consulting, community, software or other commercial offering, whether or not it competes with Voics LLC.
8A.4. No use of the community as a lead source. The Client shall not use the Voics LLC community, Slack or Circle spaces, group calls, member directories, events, masterminds, guest lists, attendee lists, or any contact details or information obtained through the engagement, as a source of leads, or to advertise, pitch, market, recruit for or promote any offering, affiliate arrangement, partnership or venture, without the prior written consent of Voics LLC.
8A.5. Non-solicitation of personnel. The Client shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, employ, engage or contract with any employee, contractor, coach, account manager or other representative of Voics LLC or Aura A.I. LLC, nor induce or attempt to induce any such person to terminate or reduce their engagement with either company.
8A.6. No competing use of materials. The Client shall not use any confidential information, framework, methodology, template, script, SOP or other material of Voics LLC, or any knowledge of the identity or circumstances of a Protected Person, to establish, build, market or operate any offering that competes with Voics LLC during the restricted period.
8A.7. Reasonableness. The Client acknowledges that these restrictions are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Voics LLC, including its client relationships, its community, its confidential information and its goodwill, and that the Client received access to those interests in consideration for accepting these restrictions. If any restriction is found to be unenforceable as drafted, it shall be read down to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable rather than struck out.
8A.8. Remedies. A breach of this Section 8A shall constitute a material breach of these Terms. Voics LLC may immediately terminate the engagement and revoke access under Section 9 without refund, shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief in addition to any other remedy, and any guarantee under Section 5B shall be void in accordance with Clause 5B.7. Termination under this Clause does not release the Client from any outstanding payment obligation under Sections 5 and 5A.
8A.9. Survival. This Section 8A survives termination, cancellation, completion or expiry of the engagement.
9. Termination and Access Revocation
9.1. Either Party may terminate the engagement with 30 days written notice. The Client remains liable for all services rendered or planned during that window.For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause does not permit the Client to cancel or extinguish an outstanding fixed contractual commitment under a fixed-price or fixed-term Offering or payment plan. Termination of participation or access shall remain subject to the Client's payment obligations under Sections 5 and 5A.
9.2. Voics reserves the right to immediately terminate or suspend access without notice if the Client violates any term of this Agreement, including but not limited to: non-payment, breach of confidentiality, harassment, unethical conduct, or reputational damage.
