These Terms of Use constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”) and RapidAscent, Inc. (“Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), concerning your access to and use of the RapidAscent Service.
You agree that by accessing the Service, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all these Terms and represent that you are at least 18 years of age and capable of agreeing to the Terms. If you do not agree with all these terms of use, then you are prohibited from using the Services and the Site and you must discontinue use immediately.
You may communicate an interest in and, in the case that you are admitted, sign up for a program using the Service. We in no way promise admission to nor ongoing availability of any program or warrant its content. We determine and apply at our discretion any scheduling, rescheduling, and cancellation policies.
RapidAscent may change, suspend, or evolve any aspect of the Service over time or any feature of the Service, how the Service is delivered (in a particular app, software, or otherwise) or who may access it, without notice or liability. We may condition access to our Service on good standing or compliance with these Terms and your current agreements with us.
These Terms incorporate both a Privacy Policy and SMS Terms and Conditions, and other RapidAscent policies by reference herein.
The Service is not directed to or for anyone under the age of 13.
