General
Services Description: The Service includes a platform connecting people seeking life-coaching services (“Clients”) to our community of talented, professional independent life coaches (“Coaches”) (Clients and Coaches are collectively referred to as “Users”) to obtain online (through video conference or otherwise)life coaching services (“Consultations”). PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL is not a healthcare provider. Our Coaches are not healthcare providers, counselors, or social workers. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL and its Coaches will not provide any form of treatment, advice, consultation, or other services relating to any medical, psychiatric, therapeutic, or related discipline. If you require healthcare, mental health services, counseling, therapy, or social services, you are advised to contact an appropriate licensed professional.
Please be advised: Although PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL administers the Service and establishes certain terms for certain Consultation packages offered through the Service (including package features, time units, pricing and options), PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL is not otherwise a party to the Consultations or any other transactions that may take place between Clients and Coaches, and PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL is not involved in, and is not responsible for the actions, inactions, advice, recommendations or performance of any services provided by Coaches. The Coaches are independent service providers. Additionally, while PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL facilitates Consultations, PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL is not responsible for such Consultations or any other services rendered. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOLdoes not control the performance of any service by Coaches or any claims made by Coaches about the services they may offer, nor does PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL guarantee or endorse the truth or accuracy of any representations made by Coaches, the ability of Coaches to provide the Consultation or services as claimed by Coaches (even if through the Service) or the ability of Clients to pay for Consultations or any services offered by Coaches. Coaches have the ability to direct the manner in which they perform their Consultations and services with Clients, including any related content provided or used therewith. Clients and Coaches (and not PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL) bear all risks and liabilities associated with any Consultations or other transactions between them. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL assumes no responsibility, and may not be held liable, for any harm or damages resulting from its Coaches’ actions, inactions, advice, recommendations, or the performance of any services provided by Coaches.Different sections of the Site and Terms of Service affect Coaches and Clients differently, so please be sure to read these Terms carefully.
Relationship of Users: All Users acknowledge and understand that PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL is not a provider of healthcare, counseling or social services to, nor is it an employer, broker, agent or insurer of,any Users of the Service. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL’s acceptance of a Coach to the Service should not be construed as or otherwise deemed an endorsement or promotion of such Coach, and such acceptance is in reliance on the Coach’s representation and warranty to PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL of the accuracy of information submitted by such Coach. As the Service solely provides a platform and tools for Users to communicate with potential transaction partners, any such transactions are made by all Users at each User’s own risk.
Independent Contractor Relationship: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Coach is an independent contractor and is not an employee, agent, partner or joint venturer of PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL or any other User Coaches have no authority to, and shall not bind nor attempt to bind PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL or any other User to any contract. Nothing in these Terms shall be interpreted or construed as creating or establishing a relationship of employer and employee between PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL and any Coach, or between PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL and any user. As an independent contractor, each Coach is solely responsible for which Client Consultations such Coach will choose to accept and the manner in which such Consultations are ultimately performed by the Coach. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL will provide no supervision over any Consultations performed by a Coach. Further, except for the Software, each Coach must provide all equipment, tools, material and labor that may be necessary to perform the Consultations. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL will not provide a Coach with any equipment, tools, material or labor to perform the Consultations and will only (subject to the terms and condition stated herein) provide Coaches and Clients with access to the PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL platform for purposes of enabling Coaches to schedule and accept (if a Coach so chooses) Client Consultations and engage in incidental, related activities (if a Coach so chooses).

Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
Agreement to Arbitrate: This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred to in these Terms of Service as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL, whether arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service (including any alleged breach thereof), the Services, any advertising, any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Service, you and PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.
Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief: YOU AND PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.
Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution: PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most client concerns can be resolved quickly and to the client’s satisfaction by emailing client support at info@performance-protocol.com. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL should be sent to 1305 W. Auto Drive, Tempe, AZ 85284 (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL is entitled.
Arbitration Procedures: Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA’s consumer arbitration page, http://www.adr.org/consumer_arbitration. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms of Service as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under the Terms of Service and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
Unless PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination shall be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
Costs of Arbitration: Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees”) will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. If the value of the relief sought is $75,000 or less, at your request, PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL will pay all Arbitration Fees. If the value of relief sought is more than $75,000 and you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees, PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys’ fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
Confidentiality: All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.
Severability: If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection (b) titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of the Terms of Service will continue to apply.
Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement: Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms of Service to the contrary, PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you are a User of the Services, you may reject any such change by sending PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms of Service (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Service).
Termination
You agree that PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service and remove and discard any content within the Service, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms of Service. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of Service, may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Service under any provision of these Terms of Service may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Service. Further, you agree that PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Service. In the event that PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL terminates your account or your use of the Service, and you are a Coach that is owed undisputed Coach Fees (less the PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL Fee), PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL agrees to remit such undisputed amounts to you after such termination.
User Disputes
You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other User in connection with the Service and PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other User of the Service.
General
These Terms of Service (inclusive of any other document expressly incorporated herein) constitute the entire agreement between you and PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL with respect to the Service. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third party services, third party content or third party software. These Terms of Service will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within New Castle County, Delaware. The failure of PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign these Terms of Service without the prior written consent of PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL, but PERFORMANCE PROTOCOL may assign or transfer these Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without restriction. The section titles in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Notices to you may be made via either email or regular mail. The Service may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms of Service or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Service.
