    Access and Use of the Service

    Services Description: Tutorsonline.us Service is an online marketplace for K-12 classes, designed for Parents to find and book Classes for the benefit of their child or children, and for Teachers to market, sell and conduct their Classes. As the provider of an online marketplace, Tutorsonline.us does not own, create, sell, resell, control, or manage any Classes. Tutorsonline.us responsibilities are limited to: (i) providing the Site as an online marketplace and platform to facilitate the sale, purchase, and conduct of Classes, and (ii) serving as the limited agent of each Teacher for the purpose of accepting payments from a Parent on behalf of the Teacher. There are risks that you assume when dealing with other Users (including those who may be acting under false pretenses). While Tutorsonline.us strives to provide a safe and welcoming environment for its Users, you agree that all of these risks are ultimately borne by you, and not Tutorsonline.us. Tutorsonline.us does not control the behavior of Users or the quality of the Classes. As a result, Tutorsonline.us cannot guarantee the authenticity, quality, safety, legality, or appropriateness of the Classes.

    Your Registration Obligations: You will be required to register with Tutorsonline.us in order to access and use certain features of the Service. If you choose to register for the Service, you agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service’s registration form. Registration data and certain other information about you are governed by our Privacy Policy. You must be of legal age to form a binding contract to register for the Service (in many jurisdictions, this age is 18). If you are not yet of legal age to form a binding contract, then you must get your Parent to read these Terms of Service and agree to them for you before you use the Service. If you are a Parent and you provide your consent to your child's use of the Service, then you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service with respect to your child’s use of the Service.

    Member Account, Password and Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, if any, and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify Tutorsonline.us of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session when accessing the Service. Tutorsonline.us will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this Section.

    Modifications to Service: Tutorsonline.us reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that Tutorsonline.us will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

    General Practices Regarding Use and Storage: You acknowledge that Tutorsonline.us may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Service, including without limitation the maximum period of time that data or other content will be retained by the Service and the maximum storage space that will be allotted on Tutorsonline.us servers on your behalf. You agree that Tutorsonline.us has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any data or other content maintained or uploaded by the Service. You acknowledge that Tutorsonline.us reserves the right to terminate accounts that are inactive for an extended period of time. You further acknowledge that Tutorsonline.us reserves the right to change these general practices and limits at any time, in its sole discretion, with or without notice.

    Class Recordings: Classes that take place through Tutorsonline.us video chat platform are automatically recorded by Tutorsonline.us (“Class Recordings”). We value student and Teacher privacy, and our use of Class Recordings is extremely limited. Specifically, Class Recordings are made available only to the Teacher providing the Class in question, in order to allow them to (1) provide a viewable copy to students who missed the Class, or who wish to review the Class, for their personal educational purposes; and (2) review the Class Recording personally in order to improve their Classes. Please note that in some cases, Classes are taught by a Teacher that is actually an organization, group, or team of instructors. In such cases, Class Recordings may be accessed by the organization, and access would not necessarily be limited to a single individual instructor. In addition, Tutorsonline.us may use Class Recordings to provide feedback to Teachers, to improve our Services, for customer support, and for compliance purposes. Tutorsonline.us retains Class Recordings for six months after the date of the applicable Class, subject to our Privacy Policy, after which they are deleted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tutorsonline.us will also delete Class Recordings earlier than six months under the following circumstances: (a) upon the request of a Parent for the deletion of their child’s personally identifiable information, or (b) upon the reasonable determination of Tutorsonline.us that a Class Recording should be removed to protect the privacy of certain Users or because of violations of these Terms of Service. We will not use Class Recordings containing images of you (or your children) for promotional or any other purposes without your express written consent. By using the services, you consent to you and/or your child appearing in Class Recordings for the limited purposes set forth above.

    Certain Teacher Obligations

    Marketplace Basics: As a Teacher, you must provide Tutorsonline.us with any information requested in order for Tutorsonline.us to list your Classes through its Services including but not limited to a description of the Classes and the price for the Classes. Tutorsonline.us has sole discretion as to which Classes we list on the marketplace and we reserve the right to reject any Classes or remove Classes from the marketplace for any reason. Additionally, Tutorsonline.us has discretion to edit Class descriptions as needed to conform them to our marketplace standards. Tutorsonline.us has sole discretion as to which Teachers are accepted into the marketplace and we reserve the right to reject any potential Teacher and remove or suspend any Teacher from the marketplace for any reason. Tutorsonline.us may, but is not required to, conduct background checks on and interviews of Teachers in its discretion and solely for its own benefit. As a Teacher, you agree to provide written and/or electronic consent to such background checks and to participate truthfully in such interviews.

    Community Standards: When you join the Tutorsonline.us community, you agree to follow our policies, including our community standards. Those expectations include thoughtful and professional communications with our community (colleagues, parents, children), modeling appropriate behavior for our learners, and acting professionally. In addition, you agree to use social media, blogs, and other online forums, in an appropriate manner. Inappropriate behavior in any Tutorsonline.us-affiliated online forum includes, but is not limited to: behavior intended to provoke, bully, demean, or cause harm to others, or to create conflict; or any other posts or content that Tutorsonline.us, in its discretion, believes to be unconducive to a respectful and welcoming community for all. Inappropriate behavior in any online forum includes, but is not limited to: posting online or speaking to the media on Tutorsonline.us behalf without prior written authorization from Tutorsonline.us; posts that Tutorsonline.us, in its discretion, finds to be offensive or inappropriate based on race, sex, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, disability or medical condition, veteran status, or any other legally protected characteristic; derogatory, disparaging, or disrespectful comments about learners, teachers, parents, or Tutorsonline.us staff, even if the target is not identified by name; sharing any private material, communication, or information regarding parents of learners, including but not limited to students’ or parents’ names, photos, conversations, emails, student academic or performance information, screenshots of student work, or any other personal identifying information; posts that may be harmful to Tutorsonline.us ongoing business operations; sharing content that contains or promotes hate speech, threats of violence, or the endangerment of children; and any other violation of Tutorsonline.us community standards.

    Learner Safety: Each Teacher is required to report to Tutorsonline.us any suspected case of child abuse or neglect they become aware of during their work with Tutorsonline.us students. Consistent with the Federal Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) (42 U.S.C.A. § 5106g), Tutorsonline.us defines “abuse or neglect” as: “any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker, which results in death, serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse or exploitation”; or “an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm.” Teachers may also be required to report suspected abuse or neglect to local authorities, and Tutorsonline.us expects all teachers to comply with their individual reporting responsibilities. Tutorsonline.us itself may report instances of suspected abuse or neglect as it deems appropriate.

    Teacher Responsibilities: Each Teacher is solely responsible for obtaining all licenses and other permissions required to offer or provide any Classes, and Tutorsonline.us assumes no responsibility for a Teacher's failure to obtain such licenses or permissions or otherwise comply with any applicable laws, rules or regulations.

    You understand and agree that Tutorsonline.us is not an insurer, agent or employer for you as a Teacher. If a Parent purchases any of your Classes, any agreement you enter into with such Parent is between you and the Parent, and Tutorsonline.us is not a party thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tutorsonline.us is authorized to serve as your limited agent purely for the purpose of accepting payments from Parents on your behalf and transmitting such payments to you (minus our Fees). You acknowledge and agree that, as a Teacher, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions while using the Services. With the sole exception of students enrolled in the applicable Class, and/or their Parents, you further agree that you will not share any Class Recordings made available to you by Tutorsonline.us to any third parties. Allowing other Teachers within your organization to view the Class Recordings, however, is permissible.

    To the extent that you are using the Services as a Teacher, you agree to abide by the terms of our Teacher Guide.

    Payment Terms

    General: Each Parent agrees to pay all applicable fees for Classes (“Enrollment Fees”) as set forth on the Site. All Enrollment Fees are payable in the currency specified on the Site at the time of purchase. You shall be responsible for all taxes associated with the Services other than U.S. taxes based on Company’s net income. Parent hereby authorizes Tutorsonline.us to bill Parent’s payment instrument upon confirmation of a purchase, and Parent further agrees to pay any charges so incurred. If Parent disputes any charges you must let Tutorsonline.us know within sixty (60) days after the date that Tutorsonline.us charges you.

    Teacher Payment: Tutorsonline.us will transfer the Enrollment Fees to Teacher’s Paypal account for each sale of a Class (or set of Classes, as applicable) to a Parent within a reasonable period of time, minus Tutorsonline.us service fees (“Tutorsonline.us Fee”), according to the schedule and policies detailed in our Teacher Guide. In order to transfer funds to Teacher’s Paypal account, Teacher shall sign up for a Paypal account. Tutorsonline.us has discretion to act on behalf of the Parent, and to not transfer the Enrollment Fees to Teacher, if Parent reports that the Classes were not provided or adequately completed. This may include but is not limited to circumstances where a Teacher did not arrive for a Class or a Class was of insufficient quality. Tutorsonline.us will independently review such cases, seeking input from the Parent and/or the Teacher, and may decide at its sole discretion to issue a refund to the Parent. All determinations of Tutorsonline.us with respect to a refund shall be final and binding on the Parent and Teacher.

    Limited Payment Collections Agent: Each Teacher appoints Tutorsonline.us as the Teacher’s limited payment collection agent solely for the purpose of accepting the Enrollment Fees from Parent. Each User agrees that payment of Enrollment Fees by a Parent to Tutorsonline.us, as that Teacher’s limited payment collection agent, shall be considered the same as a payment made directly by such Parent to the relevant Teacher and the Teacher will provide the relevant Classes to the Parent, as outlined on the Site, as if the Teacher had received payment directly. Tutorsonline.us, as limited payment collection agent for the Teacher, agrees to facilitate the payment of any Enrollment Fees (less the Tutorsonline.us Fee) for Classes pursuant to these Terms of Service unless otherwise agreed between Tutorsonline.us and the Teacher. In the event that Tutorsonline.us does not remit such amounts, the Teacher will have recourse only against Tutorsonline.us.

    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 this 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 Tutorsonline.us, whether arising out of or relating to this 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 this Terms of Service, you and Tutorsonline.us 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 TUTORSONLINE.US 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 TUTORSONLINE.US 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). Nothing in this Paragraph or in this Arbitration Agreement more generally is intended to waive non-waivable rights under the Private Attorneys General Act, Cal. Lab. Code § 2698 et seq.

    Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution: TUTORSONLINE.US is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing customer support at email . 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 Tutorsonline.us should be sent to Tutorsonline.us, Inc. PO Box 77107, San Francisco, CA 94107 (“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 Tutorsonline.us and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or Tutorsonline.us may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Tutorsonline.us or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Tutorsonline.us 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 Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, https://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. 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 Tutorsonline.us 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, Tutorsonline.us 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, Tutorsonline.us 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, Tutorsonline.us 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, Tutorsonline.us 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. The remainder of the Terms of Service will continue to apply.

    Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement: Notwithstanding any provision in this Terms of Service to the contrary, Tutorsonline.us 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 Tutorsonline.us 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 Tutorsonline.us, 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 Tutorsonline.us 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. Tutorsonline.us 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 this Terms of Service may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that Tutorsonline.us 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 Tutorsonline.us will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Service.

    User Disputes

    You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other user in connection with the Service and Tutorsonline.us will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. Tutorsonline.us reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way it deems necessary with disputes between you and any other user of the Service.

    General

    These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and Tutorsonline.us and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and Tutorsonline.us 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 California 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 Tutorsonline.us agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within San Francisco County, California. The failure of Tutorsonline.us 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 Tutorsonline.us, but Tutorsonline.us 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.
