Terms of Service

These terms apply to WIP and any other of WIP's sites, apps, communities on any platform, any of its meetups and/or any of its online or offline events or properties.

Non-legally binding TL;DR:

  • WIP's sites are crowdsourced and have user-generated content, so don't rely on the data.
  • We're not liable if you get hurt because of our site, app, data or meetups.
  • You allow us to publish the stuff you contribute to this site indefinitely.
  • When providing feedback (through the feedback form or any other way), you agree to let us use it to improve the site/app.
  • We collect analytics data including your IP, location and actions on this site to make it better (including through Google and other analytics services).
  • We also use your IP, location and actions on this site to personalize it (e.g. show you the nearest members to you)
  • If you use one of our APIs or data, you're required to link back to us at every page or in every app screen you use the data on.
  • You can only re-publish our data if it's for non-commercial objectives (e.g. not a company/startup)
  • If you excessively promote your website/app/business/yourself on or spam any of our websites and/or communities, we have the right to ban you for life and not refund your membership payment as a fine for having to spend time to moderate you (otherwise you'll just sign up again too).
  • We reserve the right to deny refund requests for any reason.

And here's the official legal terms:

We accept no responsibility for any loss, injury or inconvenience resulting from using WIP's websites and apps. You should verify critical information.

WIP accepts no liability or responsibility to any person or organisation as a consequence of any reliance upon the information contained in its sites like WIP, Telegram chat, and any other of its sites and properties.

We collect data about your browser, IP, location for analytics purposes. We also use your location to show you nearby members. If you contribute content data to the site, the chat, you provide us with a perpetual license to broadcast, display, distribute, sell and produce derivatives from your contributions.

Every effort is made to provide information that is accurate. However, materials contained in WIP's websites, apps, communities and its properties are subject to change at any time by appropriate action of WIP. We give no assurance or warranty that information on this site is current, and take no responsibility for matters arising from changed circumstances or other information or material which may affect the accuracy or currency of information on this site.

Copyright in WIP's websites, apps, communities and its properties rests with WIP unless otherwise stated.

We reserve the right to permanently ban any user from our websites for behavior that goes against our guidelines. We will be the sole judge of behavior and we do not offer appeals or refunds in those cases.

By using WIP, you agree to not excessively promote your website, application, app, software, product, business or yourself by posting links to them on any of our platform sites or apps. WIP reserves the right to terminate your account and keep your membership fee as a fine.

Users are liable for Fees for Membership together with all applicable taxes. Users may cancel their Membership at any time by contacting WIP's customer service or logging into their account details via the descriptor website indicated on their email receipt. Users must cancel their Membership 48 hours prior to the rebill date if they do not wish their Membership to renew with associated Fees. Up until the date a Membership is canceled the User authorizes WIP to continue charging the User's Payment Method to pay: (i) Fees for Membership; (ii) all purchases of other products, services and entertainment provided by WIP; and (iii) other liabilities of yours to WIP or any third party.

Delayed Transactions. In the event a User's Payment Method was declined WIP may attempt to process the transaction again under the same conditions as the transaction was initiated by the User, within a few days of the User's first attempt to purchase their Membership. Where the Payment Method is approved in such a circumstance, the User will receive an email confirming the successful completion of their transaction.

Memberships may be canceled on the user's dashboard or by contacting WIP customer service. If a Membership is canceled before the renewal date the User will still have access for the remainder of the period already paid.

We generally offer very limited refunds to new users. The reason is that you can "inspect the product" (that is the membership) by accessing all our sites in read-only mode before becoming a paid member. Thus, except being able to participate on our sites, nothing changes. You were/are able to inspect what you buy before buying and therefore we don't give refunds. You knew what you were buying. If you doubt becoming a member, we suggest you don't.

Many of our websites, apps and communities contain user generated data that is subjective, may not be accurate or may be offensive to you. We are not liable for any damages that result from using this data.

The information posted on our websites, apps and communities should not be considered legal, financial or other advice and is not intended to replace consultation with a qualified professional or specific written confirmation from WIP. We do not answer specific legal or financial questions.
