YOUR USE OF THE APPLICATION IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR SOLE RISK.

THE APPLICATION IS PROVIDED BY BRIGHTMIND AND ACCEPTED BY YOU ON AN “AS-IS,” “WHERE-IS” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

BRIGHTMIND MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT (i) THE APPLICATION WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, (ii) THAT OPERATION OF THE APPLICATION WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR (iii) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE APPLICATION WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE AS DESCRIBED OR OTHERWISE. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM BRIGHTMIND, OR THROUGH THE APPLICATION WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING THE APPLICATION NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

Some jurisdictions do not permit disclaimers of certain warranties, so some of these provisions may not apply to you.

YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW BRIGHTMIND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF BRIGHTMIND HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), RESULTING FROM THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE APPLICATION OR ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF USE OR NON-USE OF THE APPLICATION.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER BRIGHTMIND, NOR ANY PROVIDERS, NOR THEIR RESPECTIVE LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS, AFFILIATES, AGENTS, DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, MANAGERS, MEMBERS OR EMPLOYEES ASSUME ANY LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY (I) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES OF CONTENT; (II) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE APPLICATION; (III) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF OUR SECURE SERVERS OR ANY AND ALL PERSONAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN; (IV) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE APPLICATION; (V) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE THAT MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE APPLICATION BY ANY THIRD PARTY; (VI) ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT OR FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF ANY CONTENT POSTED, EMAILED, TRANSMITTED, OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE; AND/OR (VII) USER CONTENT OR THE DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOUR TOTAL DAMAGES AGAINST BRIGHTMIND, REGARDLESS OF THE NATURE OF THE CLAIM, ARE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID TO BRIGHTMIND IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING YOUR CLAIM.

ALL CLAIMS MUST BE MADE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR OF THE ACCRUAL OF THE CLAIM.

YOU WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THIS LIMITATION ON LIABILITY AND ACCEPT ITS TERMS. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT BRIGHTMIND WOULD NOT HAVE ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT WITH YOU BUT FOR THIS LIMITATION ON LIABILITY.

Indemnification

You will indemnify and defend Brightmind and its providers and licensors (and our and their respective employees, managers, shareholders, members, directors, agents, affiliates and representatives) from and against any and all claims, costs, losses, damages, judgments, tax assessments, penalties, interest, and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of any claim, action, audit, investigation, inquiry, or other proceeding instituted by a person or entity (including you) that arises out of or relates to: (a) any actual or alleged breach of your representations, warranties, or obligations set forth in these terms and conditions, including without limitation any violation of our policies; (b) your wrongful or improper use of the Application (including without limitation all content); © any of your transactions with us (including without limitation the accuracy of any payment information that you provide or any claim or dispute arising out of the Application purchased by you); (d) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any right of privacy, publicity right or intellectual property right; (e) your violation of any law, rule or regulation of the United States or any other country; and (f) any other party’s access and/or use of the Application with your devices and/or your unique username, password or other appropriate security code.

If you do not wish to receive these, you may opt out at any time, provided that if you do you may miss important information concerning access to the site and/or your subscription. Please follow the opt-out instructions in any email or mobile message to opt-out.

Governing Law/Jurisdiction/Additional Remedies

The Agreement, and all future agreements you will enter into with Brightmind, unless otherwise indicated on such other agreement, will be governed by the law of the State of Vermont, USA, without regard to its conflicts of law principles. This is the case regardless of whether you reside or transact business with Brightmind or any of its affiliates or agents in the State of Vermont or elsewhere. You agree that the relevant state or federal court located within Chittenden County, Vermont, USA will have exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and the Application. You expressly submit to the personal and subject matter jurisdiction of such courts for such purpose. You agree not to contest venue as appropriate in Chittenden County, Vermont, USA.

In addition, you understand and agree that certain rights of Brightmind in and to its intellectual property are special and unique. In the event of your breach of the limited license granted to you under this Agreement or any breach of any Brightmind intellectual property right, you agree that monetary damages will be insufficient to compensate Brightmind for its losses. Therefore, you agree that Brightmind may obtain injunctive relief to prevent a breach or threatened breach of the limited license granted to you and/or its intellectual property rights without posting a bond or further proof of irreparable harm.

In the event Brightmind is required to enforce its rights under this Agreement, you agree that you will be responsible for all Brightmind’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of enforcement.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, no suit or arbitration with respect to the Application will be permitted to be joined with any other suit or arbitration except by Brightmind, whether through class action proceedings or otherwise.

Miscellaneous

If any part of this Agreement is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Brightmind concerning the Application, and governs your use of the Application, superseding any prior agreements between you and Brightmind regarding the Application. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid under law, such invalidity will not affect any other provision or provisions of this Agreement, which will otherwise be valid. The failure of Brightmind to enforce any provision in this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.

Our goal is always to provide you with complete, accurate and up-to-date information about Brightmind. Unfortunately, it is not possible to ensure that any Application will operate free of human or technological errors. The Application and information we provide to third party retail sites on which you purchase the Application may contain typographical mistakes, inaccuracies, or omissions, some of which may relate to pricing and availability. Some information may not be complete or current. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions—including after an order has been submitted—and to change or update information at any time without prior notice. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

You acknowledge and agree that Apple and Google, and their subsidiaries, are third party beneficiaries of these Terms of Use, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use, Apple and Google will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms of Use against you as a third party beneficiary.

Headings and captions are for convenience only and shall not be considered included for purposes of interpretation. The term “including” will mean “including, without limitation.” Whenever used in this Agreement, the singular will include the plural, the plural will include the singular, and the use of any gender reference is applicable to all genders.

You acknowledge that US and other countries have laws and regulations related to export of applications. You agree that you will not export the Application in any form or to any recipient inside or outside the US in violation of US and/or foreign laws and regulations.

Privacy Policy

What Personal Information We Collect

  • Personal data including, for example, your name, e-mail address, password, data about your usage of the Products, and data collected by tracking technologies.

  • Brightmind does not collect or process credit or debit card (“Payment Card”) data. Apple and Google collect Payment Card data with respect to in-app purchases made through the Apps, and our payment processor collects Payment Card data with respect to purchases made through Brightmind.com. Such payment processors generally provide us with some limited data related to you, such as a unique, anonymous token that enables you to make additional purchases using the data they’ve stored, and your card’s type, expiration date, billing address, and the last four digits of your card number.

  • Device information such as operating system version, device type, and system performance data.

  • Device identifiers such as the Android Advertising ID or the Android Device ID. We use these identifiers in order to track how users that come from different advertisements behave in the app.

When you use the Application, we track your activity including your session time(s) and time spent in meditation while using the Application, as well as what chapters and sessions you are completing. We do not disclose this information to any third parties. It is used internally for our purposes to improve the Application and to assist you with use of the Brightmind Application (in case you forget your password, for instance). There may also be additional Application services or benefits offered from time to time on the Application that may be communicated to you that will be offered based on the information concerning your use of the Application.

Apple HealthKit

Apple users may opt-in to allow Brightmind to provide data regarding the amount of minutes meditated to the Apple iOS “Health” application for display. This data will not be shared with any third parties or used for marketing or advertising purposes.

Your California Privacy Rights

Under California Civil Code sections 1798.83-1798.84, California residents are entitled to ask Brightmind for a notice describing what categories of personal customer information we share with third parties or corporate affiliates for those third parties or corporate affiliates’ direct marketing purposes. We currently do not share any personal customer information with any third party, including any affiliate, for any marketing purposes, only with our payment processor for payment purposes. Should we later do so, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide you with an address to which you can direct a request for the notice.

Cookies

Brightmind collects cookies, a small data file stored by your web browser to permit us to recognize your computer. We work with third parties such as Facebook and Google to run advertisements and may use technologies such as cookies to gather information about your past activities for the purpose of retargeting ads.

Other third parties, such as the AppStore or our third party payment processing solution, may collect cookies with respect to any transaction with us. You will be aware that you are not on the Application for payment purposes, so please review any third party privacy information carefully. We are not responsible for third party collection of cookies or other of your personal information.

Servers

All of our servers are located in the US. However, third party providers, such as the AppStore and payment processors, may use servers located outside the US.

Links

Currently, we are not linking to other sites other than payment processors. However, should we do so, their privacy policies may differ from ours, and you should check their policies before viewing any third party site accessed from our Application. We have no control over, and no responsibility for, any third party site policies. There are risks in using any information, software, or products found on the Internet, and Brightmind cautions you to make sure you understand these risks before retrieving, using, relying upon, or purchasing anything via the Internet.

NOTICE TO RESIDENTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE UNITED KINGDOM

This notice is intended to provide you with information about how Brightmind Meditation LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the state of California (the “Company”) collects, uses, and distributes information that we collect from you. Nothing in this notice should be construed as amending, modifying, replacing, or otherwise affecting the terms and conditions of any transactions between you and the Company, except that to the extent any such terms and conditions are inconsistent with the General Data Protection Regulations of the European Union and the equivalent rules of the United Kingdom and any other applicable jurisdiction (altogether, the “GDPR”) those terms and conditions are VOID.

The Company collects certain information from and about you. This notice will explain what this information is, how it is used, what third parties receive it, and how you may instruct the Company not to collect, retain, or use certain of that information, and how to instruct us to delete this information from the Company’s own records. Please see below for: What Personal Information We Collect From You, What Non-Personal Information We Collect About You, a List of Third Parties Who Receive Information You Provide Us With Their Contact Information, and Instructions For Exercising Your Right To Instruct Us To Forget Your Information.

  • What Personal Information We Collect from You.

  • Any information that you enter into any text field on any webpage on the domain https://brightmind.com (the “Website”) will be collected by the Company for internal use except where noted otherwise in this notice. Any information that you enter into any text field on the Brightmind app (the “App”) will be collected by the Company for the same uses.

  • Information that you enter into the Website or the App at the point of account creation will be used to create a customer profile for you, except for your password. This will include any information that you provide when creating your account, including an email address and other contact information, your name, your username, and address information. The Company maintains records of its customer profiles to facilitate checkout, enable for quick or automatic logins by customers, for purposes of counting the number of its customer profiles, and so that the Website and the Company or the App can remember this information for future orders and visits to the website. You may change this information through your account settings at any time.

  • If you delete your account, the company may retain certain of this information for future use, including for counting the number of customer accounts that have been deactivated, unless you instruct us otherwise.

  • The Company uses an in-house CRM database hosted on Amazon Web Services (the “CRM”) so that its internal staff can rapidly communicate purchase information to other internal Company personnel, for example a developer forwarding your account email address to a fulfillment specialist in order to complete an in-App purchase. The CRM does not receive a copy of your customer profile except insofar as the CRM’s software is used by the Company to manage and rapidly access customer profiles.

  • The CRM is a third party for purposes of the GDPR.

  • Password

  • The password that you create for your account is not known to the Company or anyone else. The Website uses a digital security tool called Amazon Web Services Cognito (the “Security Service”) which provides a system for recognizing, rejecting, and remembering your password. Your password is not stored by the Company. This Security Service does not receive any of your information other than your password in an encrypted form, and the email address you provided at the point of account creation or to which you have changed your account settings. You may change your password or this email address through your account settings at any time.

  • If you delete your account, your password will be lost. The Company cannot provide you with your password, though the Security Service provides tools for changing and retrieving your password.

  • The Security Service is a third party for purposes of the GDPR.

  • Payment

  • Your payment information is collected by the Website in an encrypted form and is passed on to the Company’s merchant services providers, Stripe, Apple, and Google (the “Merchant Services Provider”), for purposes of securing payment between yourself and the Company. The Merchant Services Provider only receives information necessary to verify that any payments between yourself and the Company are authorized. The Merchant Services Provider will use encrypted tools to communicate with your bank, your credit card provider, PayPal, or whatever other account you use to pay for orders to the Company. Your credit card information or other payment information is not retained by the Company except as provided below. The Company does not maintain records of your credit card number or other payment information per se, except that if your billing address is the same as your shipping address and you instruct the Website or the App to enter the same billing address as your payment address, the Website or the App will use your stored shipping address as your billing address.

  • The Merchant Services Provider may receive requests from your bank, credit card provider, PayPal, or other payment provider in order to verify your transactions. The Merchant Services Provider may therefore periodically ask the Company to confirm certain of your order information, which the Company will provide if the Company believes that an order has been placed by you.

  • The Merchant Services Provider is a third party for purposes of the GDPR.

  • Cookies

  • The Company uses “cookies.” Cookies are small files that are you communicated to your web browser so that the Website can remember the selections and inputs you have made from one webpage to another within the Website or the App. For example, if you select products for an order and then proceed to checkout, the Website will use a cookie to ensure that information from catalog webpages is accurately received by the checkout webpage. If you do not wish to receive cookies from the Website, please contact us at the information below and discontinue using the Website and the App.

  • Cookies are provided by GoDaddy and Amazon Web Services, our web hosts (the “Web Host”). The Web Host is a third party for purposes of the GDPR.

  • What Non-Personal Information We Collect About You

  • The Company collects certain non-personal information about you. By “non-personal information,” we mean information about you that cannot be used, and is not stored, in a way that can identify you.

  • The Website or the App will collect information about your location based on your IP address. An IP address is a non-static identifier that allows the Company to know, in general terms, where its users are located. An IP address is not the same as a physical address, and is not the same as either your shipping address or your billing address.

  • The Company uses your IP address for internal purposes such as knowing which countries provide certain percentages of its users. The Company does not distribute your IP address to any other person. The Company does not verify your IP address or connect it to your shipping or billing address for purposes of checkout. Your IP is not and cannot be used by the Company to identify you personally. The Web Host will also know your IP address for purposes of logging visits to the Website or the App from your IP address and for preventing distributed denial-of-service attacks, which are disruptive attacks on websites caused by very large numbers (hundreds of thousands or more) of near-simultaneous visits to the Website or the App.

  • The Company collects information such as the number of users visiting the website at any given time, the times during which visitors visit the Website or the App, the length of time that users use the website, which pages they visit, which products they order, and what other actions they take while on the website. This information is collected by the Website or the App and is provided in an anonymized form to the Company’s data analytics providers, which are Google Analytics, Facebook Analytics, and Amplitude (the “Data Analytics Provider”). This information is used by the Company to track the engagement, general geographic origin, and headcount of its users. This information is combined together to provide general demographic information on the Website or the App’s users. This information is not and cannot be used to identify you specifically.

  • The Data Analytics Provider is a third party for purposes of the GDPR.
