Terms & Conditions

AGREEMENT TO MY LEGAL TERMS

I am JULIA BERG ("Individual," "I," "me," "my").

I operate the website compassionate-self-therapy.com (the "Site"), as well as any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the "Legal Terms") (collectively, the "Services").

You can contact me by email at compassionate.self.therapy@gmail.com

These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and JULIA BERG, concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SERVICES AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Services from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. I reserve the right, in my sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Legal Terms from time to time. I will alert you about any changes by updating the "Last updated" date of these Legal Terms, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review these Legal Terms to stay informed of updates. You will be subject to and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Legal Terms by your continued use of the Services after the date such revised Legal Terms are posted.

The Services are intended for users who are at least 18 years old. Persons under the age of 18 are not permitted to use or register for the Services.

I recommend that you print a copy of these Legal Terms for your records.

1. My Services

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject me to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), etc.), so if your interactions would be subjected to such laws, you may not use the Services. You may not use the Services in a way that would violate the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).

2. Intellectual Property Rights

Our intellectual property

I am the owner or the licensee of all intellectual property rights in my Services, including all source code, databases, functionality, software, website designs, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics in the Services (collectively, the "Content"), as well as the trademarks, service marks, and logos contained therein (the "Marks").

Our Content and Marks are protected by copyright and trademark laws (and various other intellectual property rights and unfair competition laws) and treaties in the United States and around the world.

The Content and Marks are provided in or through the Services "AS IS" for your personal, non-commercial use or internal business purpose only.

Your use of my Services

Subject to your compliance with these Legal Terms, including the "Prohibited Activities" section below, I grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access the Services, and download or print a copy of any portion of the Content to which you have properly gained access, solely for your personal, non-commercial use or internal business purpose.

Except as set out in this section or elsewhere in my Legal Terms, no part of the Services and no Content or Marks may be copied, reproduced, aggregated, republished, uploaded, posted, publicly displayed, encoded, translated, transmitted, distributed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose whatsoever, without my express prior written permission.

If you wish to make any use of the Services, Content, or Marks other than as set out in this section or elsewhere in my Legal Terms, please address your request to: JULIA BERG. If I ever grant you the permission to post, reproduce, or publicly display any part of my Services or Content, you must identify me as the owners or licensors of the Services, Content, or Marks and ensure that any copyright or proprietary notice appears or is visible on posting, reproducing, or displaying my Content.

I reserve all rights not expressly granted to you in and to the Services, Content, and Marks. Any breach of these Intellectual Property Rights will constitute a material breach of my Legal Terms and your right to use my Services will terminate immediately.

You are responsible for what you post or upload: By sending me Submissions through any part of the Services you confirm that you have read and agree with my "Prohibited Activities" and will not post, send, publish, upload, or transmit through the Services any Submission that is illegal, harassing, hateful, harmful, defamatory, obscene, bullying, abusive, discriminatory, threatening to any person or group, sexually explicit, false, inaccurate, deceitful, or misleading; to the extent permissible by applicable law, waive any and all moral rights to any such Submission; warrant that any such Submission are original to you or that you have the necessary rights and licenses to submit such Submissions and that you have full authority to grant me the above-mentioned rights in relation to your Submissions; and warrant and represent that your Submissions do not constitute confidential information.

5. User Generated Contributions

The Services do not currently offer users the ability to submit or post content. I may provide you with the opportunity to create, submit, post, display, transmit, perform, publish, distribute, or broadcast content and materials to me or on the Services ("Contributions"). Contributions may be viewable by other users and through third-party websites. When you create or make available any Contributions, you represent and warrant that they do not infringe any third party's rights, that you own or have the necessary rights and permissions to them, that they are not false, misleading, obscene, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, and that they do not violate any applicable law, regulation, or the privacy or publicity rights of any third party.

6. Contribution License

You and the Services agree that I may access, store, process, and use any information and personal data that you provide and your choices (including settings). By submitting suggestions or other feedback regarding the Services, you agree that I can use and share such feedback for any purpose without compensation to you. I do not assert any ownership over your Contributions — you retain full ownership of all of your Contributions and any intellectual property rights associated with them.

7. Third-Party Websites and Content

The Services may contain links to other websites ("Third-Party Websites") as well as content belonging to or originating from third parties ("Third-Party Content"). Such Third-Party Websites and Content are not investigated, monitored, or checked for accuracy by me, and I am not responsible for them. If you decide to leave the Services to access Third-Party Websites, you do so at your own risk, and these Legal Terms no longer govern.

8. Services Management

I reserve the right, but not the obligation, to monitor the Services for violations of these Legal Terms, take appropriate legal action against violators, restrict or disable access to any Contributions, remove excessive or burdensome content, and otherwise manage the Services to protect my rights and property.

9. Privacy Policy

I care about data privacy and security. By using the Services, you agree to be bound by my Privacy Policy posted on the Services, which is incorporated into these Legal Terms. Please be advised the Services are hosted in the United States. If you access the Services from another region with different data laws, by continuing to use the Services you consent to have your data transferred to and processed in the United States.

10. Term and Termination

These Legal Terms remain in full force while you use the Services. I reserve the right to deny access to and use of the Services to any person for any reason, at my sole discretion and without notice or liability, including for breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant in these Legal Terms.

11. Modifications and Interruptions

I reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Services at any time without notice, and I have no obligation to update information on the Services. I cannot guarantee the Services will be available at all times and will not be liable for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by downtime or discontinuance.

12. Governing Law

These Legal Terms and your use of the Services are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

13. Dispute Resolution

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. If unresolved, the Dispute will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), conducted in Travis County, Texas. Any arbitration is limited to the Dispute between the individual Parties — no class actions or representative proceedings are permitted. Disputes concerning intellectual property rights, theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, unauthorized use, or claims for injunctive relief are excluded from this arbitration requirement. Any Dispute must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arose.

14. Corrections

There may be information on the Services that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions. I reserve the right to correct any errors and to change or update information on the Services at any time, without prior notice.

15. Disclaimer

The Services are provided on an as-is and as-available basis. Your use of the Services is at your sole risk. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I disclaim all warranties, express or implied, in connection with the Services, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. I make no warranties about the accuracy or completeness of the Services' content and assume no liability for errors, personal injury or property damage resulting from your use of the Services, unauthorized access to secure servers, interruptions in transmission, viruses transmitted through the Services, or any content posted or made available via the Services.

16. Limitations of Liability

In no event will I or my directors, employees, or agents be liable to you or any third party for any direct, indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, special, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. My liability to you for any cause will at all times be limited to the amount paid, if any, by you to me during the six (6) month period prior to any cause of action arising.

17. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold me harmless from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your use of the Services, breach of these Legal Terms, violation of the rights of a third party, or any harmful act toward another user.

18. User Data

I will maintain certain data that you transmit to the Services for the purpose of managing performance, as well as data relating to your use of the Services. Although I perform regular routine backups, you are solely responsible for all data you transmit or that relates to your activity on the Services, and I shall have no liability for any loss or corruption of such data.

19. Electronic Communications, Transactions, and Signatures

Visiting the Services, sending me emails, and completing online forms constitute electronic communications. You consent to receive electronic communications and agree that electronic agreements, notices, and disclosures satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing, including electronic signatures, contracts, and records of transactions.

20. California Users and Residents

If any complaint with me is not satisfactorily resolved, you can contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 or (916) 445-1254.

21. Miscellaneous

These Legal Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by me constitute the entire agreement between you and me. My failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision shall not operate as a waiver. I may assign any or all of my rights and obligations to others at any time. If any provision is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision is deemed severable and does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship is created between you and me as a result of these Legal Terms or use of the Services.
