As a Groover, you agree to... Hint: click the little arrows to read more details 👇

Community is at the very heart of Groove ❤️

Groove started in 2020 as a handful of friends gathering together online to craft more satisfying and fulfilling days. We’ve seen the group evolve since then into a global community, full of kind creative entrepreneurs, craving social accountability to accomplish great things and not feel so isolated as they level up their businesses and work from home.

We're grateful to celebrate each other's unique experiences, choices, habits, ways of life, and viewpoints inside this community. Through Grooving together, we're able to not only learn about each other as individuals but also the wider world.

This is a mutually agreed-upon guide for Groovers to cultivate a safe, positive, inclusive, and equitable environment where all people, voices, and experiences are welcome and heard.

These agreements are in place as a standard for how we interact together inside the Groove community. We hate to say it, but breaking these agreements or our Terms of Use may result in a disabled account, deleted content, or other restrictions.

Groove is not a place to actively sell your services. This is a place to connect with other interesting people human to human. For more details on this, toggle “support other Groovers” above.

Thank you for helping us create such a special community, where everyone feels empowered and supported to live life on their own terms, navigate their wavy career path, and think deeply about how they spend their time. We’re excited to keep building the future of Groove with all of you.

If you ever have questions, shoot us an email at hello@groove.ooo 💌 Each of us plays an important part in the Groove community. If you encounter a situation that violates our agreements, please let us know. See you back in the Groove, 🏄‍♂️

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred as the “Arbitration Agreement”.

You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Groove, whether arising out of or relating to these Terms (including any alleged breach thereof), the Services, any advertising, or any other aspect of the relationship between the parties, 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, you and Groove 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

Unless We waive the arbitration, the 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, https://www.adr.org/consumer. 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.

Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, Groove 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 Groove 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 (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

If you have any questions (or comments) concerning the Terms and/or the Services, you are welcome to send us an email to the following address, and we will make an effort to reply within a reasonable timeframe: hello@grooveapp.io
