Terms of Service
LAST UPDATED: 11/10/2021

Welcome to BlendedSense.com. With the help of creative professionals that we source with our proprietary data algorithm called Creative Intelligence™ and a marketing tech platform, you can create engaging videos, photos, audiograms, and copy for your brand. Once you’ve chosen a content plan, and have your Creative Vision call, we get busy creating shareable content for you that is delivered monthly.

We have created, own, and manage online, a website (“Site”) and certain applications (“App” or “Apps”) and related support and hosting services for our proprietary brand content creation service (collectively, the “Service” or “Services”).

BlendedSense.com (“Blended Sense”, “we” or “us”) offers services to you through our Site (www.BlendedSense.com). Service is also offered on our Apps on the Site and on mobile devices, all of which are conditioned on your agreement to adhere to these Terms of Service without modification of any kind. Your use of the Service and/or your registration with us constitutes your agreement to these Terms of Service. In the event that you are agreeing to these Terms of Service on behalf of a third party entity, you represent and warrant that you have sufficient right to bind such third party to these Terms of Service, in which case, all references to “you” in these Terms of Service shall be references to such third party. 

These Terms of Service are subject to change at any time, without prior notice. Any changes that are made to these Terms of Service will not apply retroactively and will not apply to disputes or events occurring before the change is published. You are responsible for reviewing these Terms of Service on a regular basis. These Terms of Service apply to all visitors and all who access our Site or Services.

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND EACH PROVISION. THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A MANDATORY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER PROVISION THAT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.

We respect the privacy and security of our Users. All personal information we obtain about you in connection with your use of the Services is subject to our Privacy Policy located at https://www.blendedsense.com/privacy-policy-updated, which is incorporated by reference into these Terms of Service.

If you are under 18 years of age, then please do not use our Site or our Service.

In no event will Blended Sense be liable to you or any third party for any loss or damage to the Products, howsoever caused, and whether such loss or damage could have been prevented by Blended Sense.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you, on behalf of your affiliates, officers, directors, owners, employees, successors, heirs, and assigns (the “Releasing Parties”) hereby release the Blended Sense Parties, from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, or proceedings relating to the Products or any loss or damage thereto.

18. Governing law; Dispute resolution

The laws of the state of Texas will apply to all matters relating to these Terms of Service and the Services without regard to the conflicts of laws principles nor the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods. 

Any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the use of our Site or Service, to the goods or services provided by us, or to any acts or omissions of other users for which you may contend we are liable, including but not limited to any claim or controversy (“Dispute”), shall be finally, and exclusively, settled by arbitration in Austin, Texas, from which arbitration there shall be no appeal. The arbitration shall be held before one arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the AAA rules. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law of the State of Texas, except that the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision shall be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. To begin the arbitration process, a party must make a written demand therefore. Each part shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees. Any judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award damages in connection with any Dispute in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, and each party irrevocably waives any claim thereto. The agreement to arbitrate shall not be construed as an agreement to the joinder or consolidation of arbitration under this Agreement with arbitration of disputes or claims of any non-party, regardless of the nature of the issues or disputes involved. 

THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU THUS GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS. YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BRING CLASS ACTIONS. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING

Further, unless both you and we otherwise agree, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY.

19. Parental control protections

Pursuant to 47 U.S.C. Section 230 (d), as amended, we hereby notify you that there are commercially available parental control protections (such as computer hardware, software or filtering services) that may assist you in limiting access to material that is harmful to minors. Information identifying current providers of such protections is available at https://internet-filter-review.toptenreviews.com.

20. Class action/Jury trial waiver

WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED THE SERVICE FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.

21. General

These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and us concerning this Service and supersedes any prior written or oral representations. If any provision of these Terms of Service is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms of Service, which shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any term of these Terms of Service shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and our failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS SERVICE MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. These Terms of Service may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by us without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void. A printed version of these Terms of Service and of any notice given in electronic form shall 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. All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved to us.
