Terms and Conditions
Effective Date: August 30, 2026 | Last Updated: August 30, 2026
Plain-language overview. AgreeMint is a technology marketplace that helps customers discover independent service providers, communicate, create and manage digital agreements called “Mints,” make or receive payments through third-party payment services, and leave reviews. AgreeMint provides the platform; unless expressly stated otherwise, AgreeMint is not the contractor performing the work, is not a party to a Mint between users, and does not guarantee the quality or outcome of services.
Important: These Terms contain limitations of liability and, if Section 28 is completed and enabled, an arbitration agreement and class-action waiver. Please read them carefully. Certain rights cannot be waived under applicable law, and nothing in these Terms is intended to limit those rights.
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) are a legally binding agreement between you and AgreeMint. “AgreeMint,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to [INSERT FULL LEGAL ENTITY NAME] and its applicable affiliates. “You” and “your” refer to the individual or entity accessing or using the Platform.
By creating an account, clicking or tapping an acceptance button, electronically signing, accessing, or using the AgreeMint website, application, or related services (collectively, the “Platform”), you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you use AgreeMint on behalf of a company or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes that organization.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Platform.
2. Definitions
For these Terms:
- “Customer” means a user seeking, requesting, purchasing, or receiving services from a Provider.
- “Provider” means an independent business or individual that advertises, offers, quotes, sells, or performs services through or in connection with the Platform.
- “Mint” means a digital agreement, work order, proposal, quote, contract, change order, milestone arrangement, or other agreement created, accepted, signed, stored, or managed through AgreeMint.
- “User Content” means information, text, photos, videos, documents, messages, reviews, business information, project information, Mints, and other content submitted by users.
- “Payment Services” means payment, payout, card, bank-transfer, wallet, or other financial transaction functionality made available through third-party payment providers.
- “Smart-Contract Features” means blockchain-based or other programmable technology that may record, verify, trigger, or automate portions of a Mint or related workflow.
3. AgreeMint Platform and Marketplace Role
AgreeMint is a technology platform designed to help Customers and independent Providers find one another, communicate, create and manage Mints, facilitate payments, track project activity, and exchange reviews or other feedback.
AgreeMint is a marketplace and technology provider. Unless AgreeMint expressly agrees otherwise in a separate written agreement:
- AgreeMint does not perform the underlying home, property, professional, trade, repair, maintenance, construction, or other services offered by Providers;
- AgreeMint is not a party to any Mint or service relationship between a Customer and a Provider;
- AgreeMint does not control, direct, supervise, or manage a Provider’s work;
- AgreeMint is not an employer, joint employer, partner, joint venturer, franchisee, franchisor, or agent of any Provider or Customer;
- AgreeMint does not guarantee that a Customer will hire a Provider, that a Provider will accept a project, or that any project will be completed; and
- AgreeMint does not guarantee the quality, safety, legality, pricing, timeliness, suitability, licensing, insurance, conduct, or outcome of services offered or performed by users.
Providers decide whether to offer or accept work, what services to provide, how to perform them, what lawful prices to charge, and what personnel, tools, and methods to use, subject to any Mint they enter and applicable law.
AgreeMint serves solely as a facilitating platform. We provide the technology and tools for users to create Mints (digital agreements) and process payments with each other. AgreeMint is not a party to any Mint created on the Platform and does not act as an agent, broker, mediator, or advisor for any user.
4. Eligibility and Accounts
You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering binding contracts. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete account information and to keep it updated.
You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials — including passwords and biometric authentication — and for activity conducted through your account, except to the extent caused by AgreeMint’s own breach of applicable legal duties. You must promptly notify us at developer@agreemint.me if you believe your account has been compromised.
You may not impersonate another person or business, create accounts using false information, create multiple accounts, sell or transfer an account without permission, share account credentials with third parties, or use another user’s account without authorization. We may require identity, business, payment, licensing, insurance, tax, or other verification when reasonably necessary for safety, legal compliance, fraud prevention, or Platform integrity.
5. Profile Visibility and Information Sharing
AgreeMint allows you to control the visibility of your profile information to other users on the Platform through the Profile Visibility setting. By configuring your profile visibility, you consent to the sharing of your information as described below:
5.1 Visibility Levels
- Private (Default): Your profile is not discoverable by other users through search. Only users you have an existing Mint or contact relationship with can see your basic identity.
- Basic: Other users may search for you by name, email address, or phone number. Your name, avatar, Mint Score, tier badge, and member-since date will be visible to searchers.
- Full: In addition to all information shared under Basic visibility, other users can view your mint types, reviews received from other parties, contract completion rate, and response time statistics.
5.2 Consent and Control
By selecting Basic or Full visibility, you expressly consent to the sharing of the corresponding profile information with other AgreeMint users. You may change your visibility level at any time through the Settings screen in the app. Changes take effect immediately.
5.3 Important Notices
- The default visibility setting for all accounts is Private. No profile information is shared unless you actively choose to change this setting.
- AgreeMint does not sell your profile information to third parties outside the Platform, regardless of your visibility setting.
- Reviews and ratings displayed under Full visibility are aggregated and anonymized — individual reviewer identities are not disclosed.
- AgreeMint does not guarantee the accuracy of information displayed on other users’ profiles and is not responsible for any decisions you make based on such information.
Profile visibility controls only apply to search and discovery within the AgreeMint Platform. Parties you have an existing Mint with will always be able to see basic identifying information necessary to fulfil the terms of the agreement, regardless of your visibility setting.
6. Provider Profiles and Advertising
Providers may create profiles and advertise their businesses, capabilities, service areas, credentials, pricing information, availability, photos, and other information. Providers are solely responsible for ensuring their listings and representations are accurate, current, lawful, and not misleading.
A Provider must not falsely claim licenses, certifications, insurance, experience, affiliations, guarantees, awards, or qualifications. Providers are responsible for obtaining and maintaining every license, registration, permit, bond, insurance policy, certification, or authorization required for their work and location.
AgreeMint may organize, rank, recommend, or display Providers using factors such as location, availability, profile completeness, activity, responsiveness, reviews, Mint history, payment status, subscription or promotional features, and other factors. Unless clearly labeled otherwise, placement or visibility on AgreeMint is not an endorsement or guarantee by AgreeMint.
If AgreeMint labels information as “verified,” the label means only that AgreeMint or a third party completed the specific verification described by the Platform at the relevant time. Verification is not a guarantee that information will remain current or that a Provider will perform satisfactorily.
7. Independent Service Providers
Providers use AgreeMint as independent businesses and not as employees of AgreeMint. Providers are solely responsible for their services, business operations, personnel, wages, taxes, insurance, equipment, methods, scheduling, workplace safety, legal compliance, warranties, and obligations to Customers.
Providers are responsible for determining whether a project requires permits, inspections, licensed personnel, special disclosures, written contracts, cancellation rights, lien notices, consumer notices, or other legal requirements. AgreeMint does not make that determination for a Provider.
Nothing in these Terms restricts a Provider from operating an independent business or using other lawful channels to obtain customers, subject to any separately agreed promotional or subscription terms.
8. Customer Responsibilities
Customers are responsible for evaluating Providers and deciding whom to hire. Before engaging a Provider, Customers should independently evaluate matters important to them, including credentials, licensing, insurance, references, experience, scope, price, warranties, permits, and applicable legal requirements.
Customers agree to provide materially accurate project information, communicate known hazards or special conditions, provide lawful access to locations when required, comply with agreed payment obligations, and act in good faith in connection with Mints and reviews.
9. Mints and User Agreements
AgreeMint allows users to create, propose, negotiate, accept, sign, store, modify, and manage Mints. A Mint may include scope of work, specifications, price, deposits, milestones, payment schedules, completion criteria, warranties, change orders, cancellation terms, and other provisions selected by its parties.
The parties to a Mint — not AgreeMint — are responsible for its substance. Except where a separate written agreement expressly states otherwise:
- AgreeMint is not a party to the Mint;
- AgreeMint does not represent either party and does not owe either party duties arising from the underlying service contract;
- Users are responsible for reviewing a Mint before accepting it and for ensuring that it accurately reflects their agreement;
- Users are responsible for determining whether the Mint complies with applicable laws, licensing requirements, consumer disclosures, cancellation rights, building rules, or other requirements; and
- AgreeMint does not guarantee that a Mint is legally sufficient or enforceable for a particular transaction or jurisdiction.
Template language and Platform workflows are provided for convenience and do not constitute legal advice. Users should consult qualified legal counsel when appropriate, particularly for high-value, regulated, unusual, or legally complex work.
Once parties have accepted a Mint, modifications should be documented through the Platform where available. AgreeMint may preserve versions, audit events, acceptance records, messages, and transaction records for operational, evidentiary, security, and legal purposes consistent with our Privacy Policy.
10. Electronic Signatures and Records
By using electronic acceptance, signature, checkbox, button, biometric confirmation, verification code, or other electronic process provided through the Platform, you consent to conduct the applicable transaction electronically and intend your electronic action to have the same effect as your handwritten signature to the extent permitted by law.
You are responsible for ensuring that the person electronically accepting a Mint through your account is authorized to do so. AgreeMint may maintain electronic records showing timestamps, account identifiers, versions, signatures, acceptance events, and related audit information.
Certain laws require specific consumer disclosures or consent before electronic records may replace paper records. The parties to a Mint remain responsible for satisfying transaction-specific requirements that apply to them.
11. Smart-Contract and Automation Features
AgreeMint may use Smart-Contract Features to record agreed information, support verification, or automate actions such as status changes, milestone events, notifications, or payment instructions.
Smart-Contract Features are technology tools and do not independently determine whether a party has legally or factually satisfied an underlying service obligation. Users are responsible for reviewing the conditions, amounts, wallet or account information, triggers, and consequences associated with a Smart-Contract Feature before authorizing it.
Blockchain networks and other distributed systems may be operated by independent third parties. Transactions or records may be delayed, irreversible, unavailable, subject to network fees, or affected by congestion, forks, protocol changes, cybersecurity incidents, third-party failures, or other events outside AgreeMint’s reasonable control.
To the extent a Smart-Contract Feature conflicts with mandatory law or a controlling written provision of a Mint, applicable law and the legally controlling agreement govern. AgreeMint does not guarantee that code execution alone establishes legal performance, acceptance, completion, or entitlement to payment.
12. AI-Assisted Features
AgreeMint may offer artificial-intelligence-assisted features to help users draft profile content, project descriptions, Mint language, summaries, suggestions, or other content. AI output may be incomplete, inaccurate, unsuitable, or inconsistent and may vary even when similar information is provided.
AI-generated content is a starting point for user review. You are responsible for reviewing, editing, verifying, and approving any AI-assisted content before using, publishing, signing, or relying on it. AI features do not provide legal, tax, financial, engineering, licensing, safety, or other professional advice.
You must not knowingly provide confidential, regulated, or sensitive information to an AI feature unless the Platform expressly indicates that such information is appropriate for that feature.
13. Payments, Fees and Payouts
AgreeMint may make Payment Services available through third-party payment processors, including Stripe and its affiliates. Payment Services may be subject to additional terms imposed by the applicable payment processor, bank, card network, or financial institution.
Depending on the payment configuration, a Provider may be required to create or maintain a connected payment account and provide identity, banking, tax, or business information directly to the payment processor.
Unless AgreeMint expressly states otherwise for a particular product:
- AgreeMint is not a bank;
- AgreeMint does not provide deposit accounts;
- AgreeMint does not guarantee payment by a Customer or performance by a Provider;
- AgreeMint does not hold funds as an escrow agent or fiduciary; and
- Payment processing, settlement, availability, holds, reserves, and payouts may be controlled by the payment processor and applicable financial networks.
Users authorize AgreeMint and its payment providers to initiate charges, transfers, refunds, adjustments, or other transactions that the user validly authorizes through the Platform or that are reasonably necessary to correct transaction errors, process agreed refunds, comply with law, address chargebacks, or enforce applicable payment terms.
AgreeMint may charge Platform, subscription, transaction, promotional, lead, payment, convenience, or other fees that are clearly disclosed before the relevant charge or purchase. Except where required by law or expressly stated otherwise, fees paid to AgreeMint are non-refundable once the applicable service has been provided.
Payment timing and availability shown on the Platform are estimates unless expressly stated as guaranteed. Banks, card networks, processors, holidays, compliance reviews, chargebacks, and other circumstances may cause delays.
The Platform may also allow a receiving party to record a payment that was made outside the integrated payment processor, such as cash or check. Records of this kind are entered by users for their own bookkeeping convenience. AgreeMint does not verify, witness, or guarantee that any such payment was actually made, and the parties remain solely responsible for the accuracy of those records.
AgreeMint does not guarantee the completion, accuracy, or security of any payment transaction. All financial transactions are conducted directly between the parties through the integrated payment processor. Users transact at their own risk.
14. Refunds, Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
Refund rights between a Customer and Provider are governed by their Mint, applicable law, and any applicable payment-provider rules. AgreeMint may provide technical tools that allow users to request, approve, record, or process refunds, but doing so does not make AgreeMint responsible for the underlying dispute.
A Customer must not initiate a fraudulent or abusive chargeback. A Provider is responsible for responding to chargebacks, payment disputes, information requests, and related fees attributable to the Provider’s transactions, except to the extent caused by AgreeMint’s own error or as otherwise required by law.
AgreeMint may temporarily delay a payout, restrict payment functionality, or request information when reasonably necessary to address suspected fraud, chargebacks, sanctions, legal obligations, payment-provider requirements, account compromise, or material transaction risk.
Nothing in this section eliminates any non-waivable refund, cancellation, chargeback, or consumer-protection right available under applicable law.
15. Taxes
Users are responsible for determining, reporting, collecting, withholding, and paying taxes associated with their own transactions, income, employees, contractors, and business activities, except for taxes that applicable law specifically requires AgreeMint or a payment processor to collect, report, withhold, or remit.
AgreeMint or its payment providers may request tax information and may issue tax forms or reports when required by law. AgreeMint does not provide tax advice.
16. Reviews, Ratings and Mint Score
AgreeMint may allow users to submit reviews, ratings, feedback, completion information, and other reputation signals. AgreeMint may also calculate a “Mint Score,” badge, tier, or similar metric based on Platform data and methodologies that may evolve over time.
Reviews must reflect genuine experiences and honest opinions. Users may not:
- submit fake reviews or reviews for services they did not genuinely experience;
- misrepresent the identity or experience of a reviewer;
- buy, sell, trade, or condition compensation or benefits on a review expressing a particular positive or negative sentiment;
- coordinate review manipulation or use multiple accounts to influence ratings;
- make knowingly false statements of fact, unlawful threats, harassment, or disclose another person’s sensitive information without lawful authorization; or
- use intimidation, baseless threats, or improper pressure to suppress honest negative reviews.
AgreeMint may use automated and human systems to detect fraud or policy violations and may remove, limit, label, decline to publish, or investigate content that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or applicable law. We will not remove an otherwise lawful review merely because it is negative.
Ratings, reviews, badges, and Mint Scores are informational signals — not guarantees. Users remain responsible for their own hiring and contracting decisions.
17. User Content and License
As between you and AgreeMint, you retain your ownership rights in User Content that you create or lawfully own. You represent that you have the rights necessary to submit the User Content and permit AgreeMint to use it as described in these Terms.
You grant AgreeMint a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, transmit, display, distribute, process, analyze, and otherwise use User Content solely as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, support, and provide the Platform; comply with law; prevent fraud or abuse; and, for content you choose to make public such as Provider listings or reviews, display and promote that public content in connection with AgreeMint.
This license does not transfer ownership of your User Content to AgreeMint. AgreeMint will handle personal information in accordance with the Privacy Policy.
If you provide product suggestions, ideas, or feedback about AgreeMint, you grant AgreeMint a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free right to use that feedback without restriction or compensation, provided that this does not grant AgreeMint ownership of your underlying confidential business information.
18. Communications
The Platform may enable in-app messages, emails, texts, notifications, calls, or other communications relating to projects, accounts, Mints, payments, security, support, or marketing.
You consent to receive transactional and service communications reasonably necessary to operate your account. Marketing communications will be handled in accordance with applicable law and the choices made available to you.
Users are responsible for their communications with one another. You may not use AgreeMint communications for unlawful, fraudulent, harassing, discriminatory, deceptive, threatening, or spam activity.
19. Acceptable Use and Prohibited Conduct
You may not use the Platform to:
- violate any applicable law, regulation, court order, sanctions restriction, or third-party right;
- commit fraud, identity theft, payment abuse, money laundering, or other deceptive activity;
- offer or procure illegal services;
- misrepresent your identity, business, credentials, licensing, insurance, experience, project facts, or authority;
- harass, threaten, discriminate against, exploit, or unlawfully surveil another person;
- upload malware, harmful code, or content intended to interfere with the Platform;
- scrape, crawl, harvest, copy, or systematically extract Platform data except as expressly permitted;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, probe, or attempt to discover non-public source code, system prompts, security controls, models, algorithms, or technical measures except to the limited extent such restriction is prohibited by law;
- circumvent usage limits, access controls, payment obligations, safety systems, or security measures;
- use automated systems to create fake accounts, send spam, manipulate rankings, or generate fraudulent activity;
- infringe intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, confidentiality, or other rights;
- submit content that is unlawful, defamatory, fraudulent, or materially deceptive; or
- encourage or assist another person to do any of the foregoing.
20. Verification, Safety and Third Parties
AgreeMint may offer optional or mandatory identity, business, credential, license, insurance, background, payment, or other checks, directly or through third parties. The scope and timing of any check may vary.
No verification process can guarantee a person’s identity, trustworthiness, competence, present licensing status, insurance coverage, future conduct, or suitability for a specific project. Unless the Platform expressly states that AgreeMint independently verified a particular item, users should not assume that it has been verified.
Users are responsible for exercising reasonable judgment and appropriate safety precautions when meeting or interacting offline. In an emergency or when personal safety is at risk, contact appropriate emergency services or local authorities rather than relying on the Platform.
21. Disputes Between Users
Customers and Providers are responsible for resolving disputes arising from their Mints, services, payments, property, conduct, warranties, or other interactions.
AgreeMint may, but is not required to, provide support tools, communication records, status controls, payment information, voluntary resolution processes, or other assistance. Any such assistance does not make AgreeMint a party to the Mint, a mediator, arbitrator, fiduciary, insurer, guarantor, or decision-maker regarding the merits of the dispute.
AgreeMint may take action to protect the Platform or users — including restricting accounts or preserving records — without determining which user is legally responsible for an underlying dispute.
22. AgreeMint Intellectual Property
AgreeMint and its licensors own all rights in the Platform and its software, user interface, branding, trademarks, logos, designs, databases, workflows, algorithms, scoring systems, smart-contract infrastructure, AI systems, templates created by AgreeMint, documentation, and other proprietary technology, excluding User Content.
Subject to these Terms, AgreeMint grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Platform for its intended purposes.
No rights are granted by implication. You may not use AgreeMint’s trademarks, logos, or branding in a manner that suggests sponsorship, endorsement, partnership, or affiliation without written permission.
23. Privacy and Data
Our Privacy Policy explains how AgreeMint collects, uses, discloses, retains, and protects personal information. By using the Platform, you acknowledge the practices described there.
Users must not upload another person’s personal, confidential, financial, health, identification, or other protected information unless they have a lawful basis and appropriate authority to do so.
No internet-based service can guarantee absolute security. AgreeMint will use safeguards appropriate to the nature of the Platform and information processed, but users should use reasonable security practices and promptly report suspected compromise.
24. Third-Party Services
The Platform may depend on or link to third-party services such as payment processors, cloud infrastructure, maps, identity verification, communications, analytics, blockchain networks, or AI service providers. Those services may be governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
AgreeMint is not responsible for a third party’s independent acts, omissions, availability, content, security, or policies, except to the extent applicable law provides otherwise or AgreeMint itself has breached an independent legal duty.
25. Suspension, Termination and Account Deletion
You may terminate your account at any time through the Settings screen in the app, or by submitting a request through our account deletion page. Upon termination:
- Your access to the Platform will be revoked
- Your personal data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy
- Active Mints may remain accessible to other parties involved for their records
- Completed payment transactions cannot be reversed through account deletion
AgreeMint may suspend, restrict, or terminate access, listings, payments, features, or accounts when we reasonably believe it is necessary to:
- address a violation of these Terms or applicable law;
- prevent or investigate fraud, abuse, security threats, chargebacks, or harmful conduct;
- comply with legal process, sanctions, payment-provider requirements, or regulatory obligations;
- protect users, third parties, AgreeMint, or the integrity of the Platform; or
- address material nonpayment of fees owed to AgreeMint.
Where reasonable and legally permitted, we may provide notice and an opportunity to address the issue. Immediate action may be taken when necessary for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or protection from harm.
Termination does not cancel obligations already incurred. Mints, transaction histories, audit records, reviews, or other records may remain available or be retained when reasonably necessary for parties’ records, fraud prevention, dispute handling, legal obligations, or legitimate business purposes, subject to the Privacy Policy.
26. Disclaimers of Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” AgreeMint disclaims all warranties, express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.
Without limiting the foregoing, AgreeMint does not warrant that:
- the Platform will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, timely, or error-free;
- Provider listings, user profiles, reviews, ratings, Mint Scores, identity information, credentials, prices, or other User Content are accurate, current, or complete;
- a Provider will perform services safely, legally, timely, professionally, or to a Customer’s satisfaction;
- a Customer will pay, cooperate, provide accurate project information, or otherwise perform a Mint;
- a Mint, template, AI suggestion, Smart-Contract Feature, or electronic record will satisfy every legal requirement applicable to a user or transaction; or
- payments, blockchain networks, third-party services, or external integrations will be uninterrupted or error-free.
Some jurisdictions do not permit certain warranty disclaimers, so some of the foregoing may not apply to you.
27. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, AgreeMint and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost business, lost goodwill, loss of data, or substitute services, arising out of or relating to the Platform, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, AgreeMint is not responsible for losses arising from or relating to:
- services performed or not performed by a Provider;
- property damage, defective workmanship, delays, cost overruns, bodily injury, code violations, licensing violations, permits, warranties, or other consequences of a user’s services or conduct;
- a Customer’s or Provider’s breach of a Mint;
- user fraud, misrepresentation, theft, harassment, misconduct, or unlawful activity;
- user-generated reviews, listings, messages, photos, profiles, or other User Content;
- payment failures, holds, chargebacks, banking delays, third-party processor actions, or unauthorized transactions not caused by AgreeMint’s breach of applicable legal duties;
- AI-assisted content, templates, automated suggestions, or Smart-Contract Features that a user elects to adopt or authorize; or
- events outside AgreeMint’s reasonable control.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, AgreeMint’s aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Platform or these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) the fees you paid directly to AgreeMint during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim or (b) US $100.
This section does not limit liability that cannot legally be limited, including liability to the extent arising from AgreeMint’s fraud, willful misconduct, or other liability that applicable law prohibits AgreeMint from disclaiming or limiting.
By using AgreeMint, you expressly acknowledge that the Platform is a facilitation tool only. Any Mints, transactions, or interactions between parties are conducted entirely at the users’ own risk. AgreeMint bears no responsibility for any outcomes, losses, or disputes resulting from the use of the Platform.
28. Dispute Resolution With AgreeMint; Arbitration; Class-Action Waiver
Company setup required before publication: Complete the governing state, county, arbitration administrator/rules, and any legally required opt-out process with U.S. counsel. Do not publish this section with placeholders.
Informal resolution first. Before filing a formal claim against AgreeMint, you and AgreeMint agree to attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute. The complaining party must send written notice describing the dispute and requested relief. The parties will have at least 30 days after receipt to attempt resolution, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
Binding arbitration. Except for claims eligible for small-claims court and claims seeking injunctive relief for misuse or infringement of intellectual property, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Platform will be resolved by individual binding arbitration administered by [AAA OR JAMS] under its applicable consumer or commercial rules, as legally appropriate.
The arbitration will take place in [COUNTY, STATE], remotely, or at another mutually agreed location, subject to any right applicable law gives a consumer to select another location or method.
Class-action waiver. To the fullest extent permitted by law, disputes must be brought on an individual basis only. Neither you nor AgreeMint may participate as a plaintiff or class member in a class, collective, consolidated, representative, or private-attorney-general action against the other, except where applicable law prohibits such a waiver.
Jury-trial waiver. To the extent a dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, you and AgreeMint waive trial by jury to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Opt-out. [INSERT COUNSEL-APPROVED ARBITRATION OPT-OUT PROCEDURE, DEADLINE, AND ADDRESS/EMAIL]
If any portion of this arbitration section is found unenforceable, the remainder will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, except that if the class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, the parties will follow the result required by applicable law.
29. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless AgreeMint and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from third-party claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, losses, fines, penalties, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of or relating to:
- your services, business operations, projects, or interactions with another user;
- your Mint, breach of a Mint, or failure to perform obligations owed to another party;
- your User Content, listing, review, communication, or representation;
- your violation of these Terms or applicable law;
- your infringement or violation of another person’s rights; or
- for Providers, claims arising from your personnel, subcontractors, licensing, insurance, taxes, employment practices, property damage, bodily injury, workmanship, warranties, permits, or services.
This indemnification does not require you to indemnify AgreeMint for claims to the extent caused by AgreeMint’s own fraud, willful misconduct, or other conduct for which indemnification may not lawfully be required. AgreeMint may control the defense of an indemnified claim with counsel of its choice, and you agree to provide reasonable cooperation. AgreeMint will not settle a claim in a manner that admits wrongdoing by you or imposes a non-monetary obligation on you without your consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld.
30. Changes to the Platform or Terms
AgreeMint may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue Platform features as the service evolves. We may update these Terms to reflect new features, business practices, legal requirements, security needs, or other legitimate reasons.
When we make material changes, we will provide notice as required by applicable law, such as by email, in-app notice, or a prominent Platform notice, and will identify the effective date. Changes will apply prospectively unless applicable law permits otherwise. If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Platform before they take effect.
31. General Legal Terms
31.1 Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of [INSERT STATE OF GOVERNING LAW], without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except to the extent federal law applies or applicable consumer law requires otherwise.
31.2 Court Venue
For disputes that are not subject to arbitration, the parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in [COUNTY, STATE], except where applicable law gives a consumer the right to bring a claim elsewhere.
31.3 Force Majeure
AgreeMint will not be liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including natural disasters, severe weather, fire, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, governmental action, internet or telecommunications failures, utility outages, cyberattacks, payment-network failures, blockchain or cloud-provider failures, or third-party service interruptions, provided that this provision does not excuse obligations that applicable law does not allow to be excused.
31.4 Assignment
You may not assign these Terms without AgreeMint’s prior written consent. AgreeMint may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, financing, sale of assets, or transfer of the Platform or relevant business, subject to applicable law.
31.5 Severability
If a provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
31.6 No Waiver
A failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce that provision later.
31.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries
Except as expressly stated in these Terms, these Terms do not create rights for any third-party beneficiary.
31.8 Entire Agreement
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, any applicable payment or subscription terms, and any additional terms expressly incorporated by reference constitute the agreement between you and AgreeMint concerning the Platform. A Mint between users is a separate agreement between those users.
31.9 Order of Precedence
If additional AgreeMint terms expressly applicable to a specific feature conflict with these Terms, the feature-specific terms govern for that feature. As between a Mint and these Terms, the Mint governs the contractual obligations between its user parties, while these Terms govern each user’s relationship with AgreeMint.
31.10 Survival
Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including accrued payment obligations, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, and applicable record-retention provisions — will survive.
31.11 Interpretation
Headings and the plain-language overview are for convenience and do not limit the operative provisions of these Terms. “Including” means “including without limitation.”
