CLC Toolbox - Terms of Service


Last Updated: 2/16/24


This Terms of Service (“Terms”) is an agreement between Caitlin Lee Consulting LLC and our affiliates (“we,” “our,” or “us”)  and the users (‘You” or “User”) of its proprietary CLC Toolbox and governs your access to and use of our platform available at https://clctoolbox.thinkific.com including all guides, manuals, templates, videos and audio guides, and all other online products and services provided or offered by us (collectively, the “Service” or “Services”). 


Our Services are made available to you through our platform partner Thinkific. Certain parts of our platform may require you to access or create an account on one of our partner websites. If you choose to do so, you are solely responsible for creating an account where applicable and compliance with their terms of service, privacy and any other policies. For clarity, accessing the Services generally does not require you to make separate accounts, only to access certain features such as comments. 


Agreement to Terms

By using any portion of the Service, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms. These Terms apply to you regardless of whether you are a “User” (meaning, you have created an account with us) or are a “Visitor” (meaning, you are viewing the Service but have not created an account with us). The term “you,” “your,” or “User” refers to any party whether as an account holder or visitor who views, accesses, or otherwise uses our services. 


The Services are made available for your organization’s internal business purpose or your personal, non-commercial use. You agree that you are only using the Service in compliance with these terms, and you are not using the Service for or on behalf of any third party whom you are not authorized, or for any commercial purposes including without limitation disclosing or otherwise reselling the toolbox in any capacity. 


THE TOOLBOX AND ITS CONTENTS ARE PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND IT IS LICENSED ON A LIMITED BASIS TO THE USER AND NOT SOLD TO THE USER.


Changes to Terms or Services

We may modify the Terms and our Services at any time, in our sole discretion. If we do so, we shall let you know by email or by posting a notice on the platform. Please review the Terms whenever we modify them. If you continue to use the Services after we posted modified Terms, then such use indicates to us that you agree to be bound by the modified Terms. If you don’t agree to be bound by the modified Terms, then please discontinue use of the Services. Because the Services are evolving over time, we may change or discontinue all or any portion of the Services at any time, without notice to you, at our sole discretion.


Creating an Account

By creating an account, you become a “User” and represent that you are thirteen (13) years or older, you are authorized on behalf of the organization you represent or you are an individual, and you are not barred from using the Services under applicable law. As the identified individual creating an account for yourself or your organization, only you may access the Services. Other users will require their own account. Account sharing is expressly prohibited. 


We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if: (i) any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, false, or misleading; (ii) you are sharing your account without approval authorization or (iii) to reclaim any username that you create through the Services that violates our Terms. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account and agree to notify us if your password is lost, stolen, or disclosed to an unauthorized third party, or otherwise may have been compromised. You are responsible for activities that occur under your account.

This list is an example and is not intended to be complete or exhaustive.

DMCA/Copyright Policy

We respect copyright law and expect Users to do the same. It is our policy to terminate in appropriate circumstances the accounts of Users who repeatedly infringe the rights of copyright holders. 


The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that Content infringes your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the Content be removed or access to it blocked. Federal law requires that your notification include the following information: (i) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (ii) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site; (iii) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; (iv) information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail; (v) a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (vi) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
