To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Beside The Influence and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, coaches, representatives, and affiliates from third-party claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and reasonable costs arising from:
- Your unlawful use of the Website;
- Your material violation of these Terms;
- Your infringement of another person’s rights;

- These Terms;
- A program agreement;
- Community rules;
- Intellectual-property restrictions;
- Payment obligations;
- Confidentiality requirements;
- Applicable law.
We may also take reasonable action when necessary to protect the safety, privacy, or rights of participants, staff, or others.
Termination of access does not eliminate payment obligations or other obligations that expressly survive termination under an applicable enrollment agreement.
Provisions concerning intellectual property, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability, dispute resolution, and other provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain effective.
Assignment
You may not transfer or assign your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent.
Beside The Influence may assign or transfer its rights and obligations in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, sale of assets, reorganization, or other business transaction, subject to applicable law.
No Waiver
Failure by Beside The Influence to enforce any provision of these Terms does not waive our right to enforce that provision later.
A waiver relating to one event does not constitute a waiver of future events or other provisions.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Any unenforceable portion will be severed or modified as necessary without affecting the validity of the remaining Terms.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time.
When changes are made, the updated version will be posted on the Website and the “Last Updated” date will be revised.
Material changes may be communicated through additional notice where required by law.
Your continued use of the Website after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Terms applicable to an existing paid program may also be governed by the agreement in effect when you purchased that program.
Governing Law
These Terms and disputes arising out of or relating to the Website, Beside The Influence, or these Terms shall be governed by applicable law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles that would require application of another jurisdiction’s laws.
Nothing in this provision eliminates rights or protections that cannot legally be waived.
Dispute Resolution and Venue
Before initiating formal legal proceedings, you and Beside The Influence agree to make a reasonable good-faith effort to resolve the dispute directly.
A party initiating a dispute should provide written notice describing:
- The nature of the dispute;
- The relevant facts;
- The relief being requested.
If the dispute cannot be resolved informally and legal proceedings are initiated, then, subject to any rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived, any lawsuit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Website, or Beside The Influence’s products or services shall be brought exclusively in an appropriate state or federal court located in or serving Raleigh, North Carolina.
You and Beside The Influence consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts.
Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking emergency or temporary injunctive relief where legally appropriate, including relief intended to protect intellectual property, confidential information, or against unauthorized use of proprietary materials.
Nothing in this section eliminates a consumer protection, privacy, administrative, or other remedy that applicable law does not permit a consumer to waive.
No Class-Wide Representation
To the extent permitted by applicable law, disputes between you and Beside The Influence will be resolved based on the individual circumstances giving rise to the dispute.
Nothing in this section limits a right that cannot legally be waived.

These Terms, together with:
- Our Privacy Policy;

- Purchase terms;
- Payment authorization;
- Program agreement;
- Community rules;
- Other written policies expressly incorporated into an agreement;
constitute the agreement governing your use of the applicable Beside The Influence Website, program, product, or service.
