By accessing or using the Site in any manner, including, but not limited to, visiting or browsing the Site or contributing content or other materials to the Site, you agree to these Terms and Conditions.

 

Intellectual Property 

The Site and its original content, features and functionality are owned by Verge Network and are protected by international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws.  Verge Network aggregates and distributes a wide range of content from hundreds of leaders and sources. Most of the aggregated content remains the intellectual property of these leaders and/or of Verge.

 

Use of the Master Classes, Online Courses, Memberships and Webinars is subject to these terms and conditions:

1. Master Class/Online Course/Membership/Webinar content is for personal and team use and may not be reposted, modified or sold without permission of Verge. The purchase entitles you to use the Master Class/Online Course/Webinar on one individual’s computer or mobile device. That person may show and use the material to train team members but may not further distribute the content beyond the individual purchaser’s computer. Distribution limitations are similar to songs purchased on iTunes. The songs may be played for other people via the purchaser’s device, but they may not be copied and further distributed to other individuals.

2. Purchasers may NOT share their passwords for others to utilize content. Content may only be utilized (if applicable) by the purchaser to their computer.

3. Purchases are non-refundable (unless otherwise specified on the product’s landing page, sales page, or order form, i.e. a 30-day money back guarantee or trial period is specifically mentioned).

 

Auto-Renewals 

Certain Memberships and Payment Plans (Verge Lab monthly membership, Verge Lab annual membership, etc.)  will auto-renew each month/year until you cancel it. Unless you have a free trial, you must pay for your membership to Verge Lab prior to accessing the Master Classes, Courses, Webinars, etc. By Purchasing a membership to Verge Lab, YOU AGREE THAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW FOR SUCCESSIVE MONTHLY/YEARLY PERIODS UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AS FURTHER DESCRIBED BELOW. YOU AUTHORIZE VERGE NETWORK TO CHARGE THE PAYMENT METHOD THAT OUR SERVICE PROVIDER HAS ON FILE FOR YOU TO PAY FOR ANY RENEWAL SUBSCRIPTION. YOU WILL BE BILLED FOR THE SAME SUBSCRIPTION PLAN (OR THE MOST SIMILAR SUBSCRIPTION PLAN, IF YOUR PRIOR PLAN IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE) AT THE THEN-CURRENT MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION FEE PLUS ANY APPLICABLE TAXES. WE WILL CHARGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE EACH MONTH ON THE DAY CORRESPONDING TO THE DATE YOU SIGNED UP FOR VERGE NETWORK, OR, IF NO SUCH DATE EXISTS IN A GIVEN MONTH, THEN THE LAST DAY OF SUCH MONTH. SUBSCRIPTION FEES MAY CHANGE AT ANY TIME, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

 

Refunds; Cancellation

YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS/MEMBERSHIPS AT ANY TIME, AFTER WHICH WE WILL NOT RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION. TO CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, PLEASE EMAIL OUR SUPPORT TEAM ([email protected]). IF YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, THEN YOUR CANCELLATION WILL BE EFFECTIVE AT THE END OF THE SUBSCRIPTION MONTH/YEAR IN WHICH YOU CANCEL. FURTHER, VERGE NETWORK MAY CANCEL A USER’S SUBSCRIPTION WITHOUT PROVIDING A REFUND IF SUCH USER BREACHES THE TERMS.

IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS DECLINED, THEN WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE YOUR ACCOUNT AND YOU WILL FORFEIT ANY ACCOUNT ACCESS.
