Last Updated: June 13, 2023

Welcome to Violet Flame Experience!  Violet Flame Experience, Inc. (“Violet Flame Experience”) builds XR (virtual reality and augmented reality) and other digital fitness and wellness experiences, which are made available through our software application (the “App”) and our website (the “Site”). Please read these Terms of Service (the “Terms”) and our Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) carefully because they govern your use of the Site, our App, and the services and functionality accessible via the Site and our App. To make these Terms easier to read, the Site, the App, and our services are collectively called the “Services.”

Agreement to Terms. By using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you don’t agree to be bound by these Terms, do not use the Services. If you are accessing and using the Services on behalf of a company (such as your employer) or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to these Terms. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that company or other legal entity.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND VIOLET FLAME EXPERIENCE THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT.

Privacy Policy. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for information on how we collect, use and disclose information from our users. You acknowledge and agree that your use of the Services is subject to our Privacy Policy. Our Privacy Policy is located at violetflameexperience.co.uk/privacy.

Changes to Terms or Services. We may update the Terms at any time, in our sole discretion. If we do so, we’ll let you know either by posting the updated Terms on the Site or through other communications. It’s important that you review the Terms whenever we update them or you use the Services. If you continue to use the Services after we have posted updated Terms, you are agreeing to be bound by the updated Terms. If you don’t agree to be bound by the updated Terms, then, except as otherwise provided in “Effect of Changes on Arbitration,” you should discontinue using the Services. Because our Services are evolving over time, we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion.

2. USING THE SERVICES

Eligibility. According to Meta's guidance, it is recommended that you are 13 years or older to use the services and are not barred from using the Services under applicable law.

We will take measures as required to comply with applicable law regarding the transfer, storage, and use of certain personal information.

Not a Medical Treatment. Please note that Violet Flame Experience does not provide any medical advice, diagnosis or engage in the practice of medicine.

Any Feedback that you provide to us will be treated as non-proprietary and non-confidential, and you hereby grant to us a non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, under any and all intellectual property rights that you own or control to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon and otherwise exploit the Feedback for any and all purposes, with or without attribution, and without the requirement of any permission from or payment to you or to any other person or entity.

Organisational Offerings. Certain organisations (for instance, universities, hospitals, and companies) (“Organisations”) may purchase and make the Services available to their employees and members. In some cases, these Organisations may supplement these Terms with their own terms and conditions, which may include additional terms around subscription redemption, usage, or supplementary payment for accessing the Services. In such an event, the additional Organisational terms and conditions shall also apply to your use of the Services. In the event of any conflict with such additional Organisational terms and these Terms, the additional Organisational terms shall prevail.

3. FEES, SUBSCRIPTIONS, AND VIRTUAL ITEMS

We may charge fees associated with certain Services, including, without limitation, for subscriptions to certain Services (“Subscriptions”), the download of Apps, and the purchase of virtual goods, add-ons, or benefits (“Virtual Items”). Such products or Services may be made available for purchase on specified pages of the Site, within the Apps, on third-party App stores and marketplaces (“App Providers”), or otherwise as indicated through the Services. The price of any product or service purchased through the Services will be the price specified at the time of your purchase. Prices for all products and services exclude all applicable taxes and telecommunication charges, unless otherwise indicated. To the extent permissible by law, you agree to be responsible for any such applicable taxes and telecommunication charges. Your purchase of any App, Virtual Item or other content constitutes your representation and warranty that you are of legal age to form a binding contract, and if not of legal age, that you have placed such order with the permission of a parent or legal guardian, and that you are not a person barred from using or receiving the Services by any local, state, federal or international law. All payments for purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable except as expressly provided in these Terms.

If you provide credit card information to us, you represent that you are the authorized user of the credit card that is used to pay the Subscription or other fees. If you order a Subscription, each month that you use the Services, you agree and reaffirm that we are authorized to charge your credit card for the Subscription fee. You agree to promptly notify us of any changes to your credit card account number, its expiration date and/or your billing address, and you agree to promptly notify us if your credit card expires or is canceled for any reason. We reserve the right to collect applicable taxes and impose premium surcharges for certain Services.

Subscriptions to Violet Flame Experience Services may be made available to you on a monthly, yearly, or other periodic basis. By purchasing a Subscription, you authorize Violet Flame Experience (and/or the App Provider concerned) to initiate recurring non-refundable payments until you cancel your Subscription. By agreeing to these Terms and electing to purchase a Subscription, you acknowledge that your Subscription has recurring payment features and you accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation of your Subscription by you or Violet Flame Experience. Your Subscription continues until canceled by you or we terminate your access to or use of the Services or Subscription in accordance with these Terms.

Your purchase of a Subscription is final, and you will not be able to cancel the purchase or receive a refund of your Subscription fee at any time. If something unexpected happens while completing a purchase, we reserve the right to cancel your purchase for any reason. If we cancel your purchase, we’ll refund any payment you have already remitted to us for such purchase. Without limiting the foregoing, you may cancel your Subscription at any time, but please note that such cancellation will be effective at the end of the then-current Subscription period. You will not receive a refund of any portion of the Subscription fee paid for the then-current Subscription period at the time of cancellation. You can cancel via the Site, or by sending an email through Contact Us Form with the subject line “Cancel Subscription” and including your name, email and username associated with your Account, and your desired cancellation date in the body of the email. You will be responsible for all Subscription fees incurred for the then-current Subscription period. If you cancel, your right to use the Services will continue until the end of your then-current Subscription period and will then terminate without further charges.

Certain Services and Virtual Items may be made available to you for a charge. We assume no liability for purchaser error, trial versions, software purchased for the wrong device or platform, promotion codes or discounts not provided at the time of purchase, or any purchased item 90 days after the purchase date for any reason. We will not be liable for any errors on billing statements issued to you by your wireless carrier, or any App Provider. In no event will we be liable for any defects or other problems associated with downloads or purchases through the Services after a period of ninety (90) calendar days has expired from the date of such download or purchase, as applicable. Please read the system requirements very carefully before making any purchases.

Virtual Items have no real-world value and cannot be redeemed for actual currency, goods, or other items of monetary value, even if you have unused Virtual Items remaining in your account at the time your account is closed, whether such closure was voluntary or not. All sales of Virtual Items are final. No refunds will be given, except in our sole and absolute discretion. The purchase of any Virtual Item is merely the purchase of a license to use the Virtual Item in the applicable Services and does not transfer ownership of that Virtual Item to you. This license is personal to you and cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, gifted, traded, or sublicensed.

5. GENERAL TERMS

Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Violet Flame Experience and you regarding the Services and Content, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Violet Flame Experience and you regarding the Services and Content. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are using the Services upon the request, or at the direction of, your employer or another third party which has entered into a commercial arrangement with Violet Flame Experience, the terms and conditions of such agreement will take precedence over these Terms. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without Violet Flame Experience’s prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null. Violet Flame Experience may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.

Indemnity. You will indemnify and hold harmless Violet Flame Experience and its officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees arising out of or in any way connected with (i) your access to or use of the Services or Content, (ii) your User Content, or (iii) your violation of these Terms.

Limitation of Liability. NEITHER “Violet Flame Experience” NOR ANY OTHER PARTY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, OR DELIVERING THE SERVICES OR CONTENT WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, LOST SAVINGS, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, LOSS OF DATA OR GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT Violet Flame Experience OR ANY OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

USE OF THE APP MAY AFFECT HEART AND BREATHING RATE, CAUSE UNINTENDED SIDE EFFECTS SUCH AS MOTION SICKNESS OR DISORIENTATION, OR AGGRAVATE PRE-EXISTING MEDICAL CONDITIONS. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE Violet Flame Experience’S LIABILITY FOR RISKS INHERENT IN THE USE OF VIRTUAL REALITY SOFTWARE, AND Violet Flame Experience WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY ARISING FROM SUCH RISKS.

IN NO EVENT WILL Violet Flame Experience’S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR CONTENT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO Violet Flame Experience FOR USE OF THE SERVICES OR CONTENT OR TEN DOLLARS (£10), IF YOU HAVE NOT HAD ANY PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS TO Violet Flame Experience, AS APPLICABLE.

THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN Violet Flame Experience AND YOU.
