By submitting your application to become a Solo-E Certified
Expert you agree to the following terms and conditions.
This Agreement binds the Terms of Service and its conditions thereof to all Services
to our Solo-E Certified Experts (hereinafter referred to as "Expert" in
this document.) Solo-E grants to the Expert a limited license and agrees to provide
Services to the Expert, subject to the Terms and Conditions of this Agreement, in
exchange for recurring payment of fees and while the Expert is not in breach of any
Terms or Condition of this Agreement. Payment of fees constitutes the Expert's agreement
with the Terms and Conditions stated on this entire page.
We have a zero-tolerance
anti-spamming policy. You may not, at any time, send an unsolicited email message, whether
commercial or not, to any Solo-E subscriber.
You may not collect email addresses from our directory or
any other source, (except within the Solo-E.com Co-Registration
program), unless you have already established a relationship
(e.g., exchange of emails, participation in a survey, offline
contact) or transaction (they sign up for your newsletter, ebook or class, or buy
a product, for example) with that person.
In addition, any emails sent to your opt-in subscribers must
comply with the CAN-SPAM rules of the United States. Specifically
including:
- Providing an unsubscribe link in each email. (If you process
unsubscribes manually, make sure they are complete within
10 days maximum.)
- Providing your physical (mailing) address and phone number in each email.
- Using the true originating email address.
- Using an accurate and descriptive Subject line.
Failure to comply with the above policies may result in permanent
suspension from participation in the Solo-E Certified Expert
program or any other Solo-E activity.
We recommend, for your own protection, that you make it explicit
to participants and purchasers that they are being added to
your ezine, mailing list, or other list(s), before they sign
up or purchase; or, give them the opportunity at time of signup/purchase
to opt out. Keeping track of data such as time and date of
subscription and IP address is also recommended. Double-opt-in
practices (where a confirmation email is sent and the recipient
must click a link to confirm their interest) are most highly
recommended.
Post only your own original material. Any material that is
found to be the Intellectual Property of someone other than
the submitter will be removed from Solo-E.com. We reserve
the right to suspend your participation in the Solo-E.com
Expert program and to remove all your listings from our site
if you are found to violate the Intellectual Property rights
of others. Additionally, your materials will be removed from
the Solo-E.com site while such allegations are investigated.
If you intend to record a Teleclass for rebroadcast, you
may do so only with the consent of all participants. (Suggestion:
you may inform them at the beginning of the teleclass, offering
them the option to hang up or just listen.)
You retain the sole copyright to material you submit, and
may re-publish, distribute, create derivative works, etc., without limit; Solo-E.com has no rights to your material other than to publish it on our website and in our newsletters with your permission. Your name, copyright,
and contact information will appear at the end of every listing
that is accepted for publication.
Solo-E.com reserves the right to refuse to publish any information submitted,
for any reason. Your original material will be destroyed
in the Solo-E.com database if this happens,
to protect your intellectual property.
You may request the removal of your listing(s) at any time
and for any reason. Please allow up to 7 days for the listing to
be removed.
Solo-E.com reserves the right to remove listings at any time
and for any reason. In most cases we will try to notify you
before this happens and tell you the reason. However, there
may be times or circumstances when this is not possible.
Solo-E.com reserves the right to remove any material that
is not 100% honest. For instance, if you list a FREE Teleclass
that is nothing more than a pitch for a FOR-FEE Teleclass.
It IS NOT permissible for you to publish at Solo-E any articles, blog postings, ebooks or success stories that primarily promote, advertise,
endorse, or otherwise market any particular business, product,
or service, even if it is not your
own (other than a book you are reviewing, of course.) It IS permissible for you to include a short blurb at the end of your blog postings, articles, ebooks etc., with a brief description of who you are and/or a product or service you provide, along with live link(s) to your website. The length of the blurb and number of live links allowed varies depending on the medium and is covered in our publishing guidelines.
It IS permissible for you to advertise your products and services
within the listings of your classes and products.
Expert agrees to recurring payment of the stated fee for a particular
service at the stated interval (monthly, every 3 months, etc.)
Expert agrees to provide Solo-E with accurate and complete billing
information. Your service will continue uninterrupted as long
as your payments are current. If your credit card company refuses
payment, or for any other reason your payment is not received
within 5 days of the due date, we reserve the right to suspend your service. In the event that we allow your service to continue, and your payment is received at a later date, we reserve the right to adjust your renewal date to match what it would have been without the delay in payment.
Expert are encouraged to check and update their credit
card information regularly by visiting the My
Account page, accessible through the Experts-Only page.
Solo-E bills accounts in calendar month cycles, at the beginning
of each period of service, determined by the day of the month
that the user originally purchased the service and the period
for which the user has signed up (monthly, every 3 months, etc.).
Charges are due when billed by Solo-E. Experts will automatically
be renewed/billed at the beginning of each period unless appropriate
request for cancellation is made. Cancellation of service procedures
are provided elsewhere in this Agreement; or, you can always
contact us via email.
Solo-E in its sole discretion, does not prorate service fees.
Accounts are prepaid for the period of time the user chooses.
Refunds for partially used services are not available.

action by Solo-E staff will be charged to User's account at the
rate of up to $350 per person/hour.

account(s) for any reason, including but not limited to misuse
of the services, misrepresentation of the Expert's business relationship
with Solo-E, or an indication of credit problems including, but
not limited to, rejection of credit card authorization or charges,
disputed credit card charges and returned checks.
Future recurring membership payments can be cancelled
at any time, The Expert may cancel a future recurring payment
at any time by visiting the My

cancellation method is possible by requesting a cancellation
via email. When a cancellation is requested via e-mail, it takes
place within 2 business days.

to violation of any of these terms are effective immediately
and will result in immediate suspension of Expert's access to
the site, regardless of payment status.
There are no refunds for unused services, or partially used
memberships.
Failure to adhere to these terms may, at our discretion,
result in temporary suspension or permanent rescinding of
your status as a Certified Expert, without refund. And if
the quality of your classes and products declines, we'll talk
to you about it first, but we retain the right to suspend
or revoke your status if you are no longer able to serve
our members to our standards.
If your status as a Certified Expert is revoked, or you have cancelled services and your paid access expires, you may not continue to use the Solo-E Certified Expert logo on your website or elsewhere. Any content you provide on your or any other websites (article directories, for example) after your status changes must not refer to you as either a present or past Certified Expert.
You also agree to abide by the general Terms
and Conditions of the Solo-E.com website.

and conditions, please contact us. |
