Client Portal Agreement
This Client Portal Agreement ("Agreement") is made by and between YMM Dance Company Inc. ("studio") and the registered user ("you", "client") effective on the date the site registration is completed with the following terms and conditions:
Purpose
The Studio provides a Client Portal (secure internet site, mobile application, portal) through DanceStudio-Pro to permit easy registration, tuition payments, schedule, communication with the Client and the Studio as well as ongoing Client access to certain documents (may include confidential documents) created or maintained by the Studio. The Studio has sole discretion to decide which types of documents can be uploaded or viewed on the Client Portal.
Acceptance of Terms of Use
The Studio's client portal is offered to you conditioned upon your acceptance of the terms, conditions, and notices contained herein. By using the portal you agree to these terms and conditions. The Studio may modify, suspend, discontinue or restrict the use of any portion of the Studio's Client Portal, including the availability of any portion of the content at any time, without notice or liability.
Description of Service
The Studio Client Portal provides authorized clients with access to information displayed on the portal for deliveries of documents, payments, and communications for their account only. The information, documents, and communications on the portal are provided as a convenient resource to clients and may be used for informational purposes only. The information contained on this site should NOT be used as a substitute for consultation with professional accounting, tax, legal, or other competent advisors.
The Client Portal provides the ability for two-way communication between you and the Studio and serves exclusively as a secure environment to transmit documents back and forth. Deliverables and other documents being transmitted from the studio to you will only remain available on the site for current dance season, at which time they will be automatically deleted.
Service Availability
The Studio will use its best efforts to provide 24-hour daily availability of the Client Portal. However, the Studio makes no representation or warranty that 24-hour service will be available. Client agrees and acknowledges that the Client Portal will, at times, be unavailable due to regularly scheduled maintenance, service upgrades, or other mechanical or electronic failures. The Studio shall not be responsible for any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, communications line failure, theft or destruction or unauthorized access to the Client Portal. The Studio is not responsible for any problems or technical malfunctions of any telephone or fiber network or lines, computer on-line systems, servers or providers, computer equipment, software, failure of any e-mail to be received by the Studio on account of technical problems or traffic congestion on the Internet or at any website, or any combination thereof, including any injury or damage to your computer or peripherals related to downloading any materials in from the Client Portal.
User Password and Security
Using the portal and its related services requires the use of a username and password. The confidentiality of the username, password and account itself are the responsibility of the user. Any activities that occur under users' accounts are their responsibility. You agree to notify the Studio immediately of any unauthorized use of accounts or any other breach of security. The use of another person's username and password is expressly prohibited.
You acknowledge that the use of username and password is an adequate form of security. You are solely responsible for (1) authorizing, monitoring, controlling access to and maintaining strict confidentiality of your username and password, (2) not allowing another person to use your username or password, (3) any changes or damage that may be incurred as a result of your neglect to maintain the strict confidentiality of your username and password, and (4) promptly informing the Studio in writing of any need to deactivate a username due to security concerns or otherwise.
The Studio is not liable for any harm related to the misuse or theft of usernames or passwords, disclosure of usernames or passwords, or your authorization to allow another person or entity to access and use the Studio's Client Portal using your username or password. You shall immediately notify the Studio of any unauthorized use of your username or password and any breach of confidentiality. Until the Studio receives this notification from you, you will be held liable for any harm ensuing from the use of your username on the Studio's Client Portal.
The Studio will use its best efforts to make the Client Portal secure from unauthorized access. The Client Portal will require industry standard 128bit encryption on all communications between your device and the Client Portal server. The Client Portal server operating system and applications software will be updated and virus-scanned regularly. However, you recognize that no completely secure system for electronic data transfer has yet been devised. THE STUDIO MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE EFFICACY OF THE SECURITY OF THE CLIENT PORTAL AND SHALL NEVER BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIMED ACTUAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM ANY BREACH OR ALLEGED BREACH OF SECURITY OF THE CLIENT PORTAL.
Termination of Login Account
You agree to notify the Studio immediately when your account is to be terminated. The Studio will make every effort to terminate access immediately. However, you cannot be assured that access has been terminated until you receive confirmation of the termination from the Studio.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all such information, software, documents, and communications are provided "as is" without warranty or condition of any kind. The studio and its suppliers hereby disclaim all warranties and conditions with regard to such information, software, documents, and communications, including without limitation, all implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the studio, or its suppliers, be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential damages, or any other damages whatsoever, including without limitation, damages for loss of use, data, or profits, arising out of or in any way connected with your use or the performance of the portal, with the delay or inability to use the portal or related services, whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise, even if the studio or its suppliers has been advised of the possibility of damages. Certain states do not permit these types of limitations, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
Given the changing nature of federal and provincial laws and the inherent hazards of electronic communication, there may be delays, omissions, or inaccuracies in information contained in this site. As such, no information on this or related sites should be used as a substitute for consultation with professional accounting, tax, legal, or other competent advisors.
If you are dissatisfied with any portion of the portal, information, documents, or communications on the portal, or with any of these terms and conditions of use, your sole and exclusive remedy is to cease using the portal and the information, documents, or communications you obtained from the portal.

No Unlawful or Prohibited Use

Hacking, password mining, or any other means to gain unauthorized access to the portal, portal accounts, computers, or network is prohibited. Posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libellous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane material or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offence, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law is also prohibited. The Studio will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing this studio to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information and materials. The Studio is an equal opportunity employer and values the diversity of its people.
