TERMS OF SERVICE
Last updated 18 March 2023
The Mission
As a global platform for authentic expressions and self-organization, Loominate is deeply committed to supporting and protecting freedom of speech where opposing views can co-exist and the unique perspectives of each individual are respected and included. To achieve this, we draw lines around a few narrowly defined categories of content and behavior that might jeopardize this mission.
What Loominate is for
Loominate enables and celebrates authenticity and freedom of speech and action. We want to create a safe space for everyone.
Agreement to terms
These Terms of Use constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”) and Loominate Pte Ltd, doing business as Loominate ("Loominate", “we”, “us”, or “our”), concerning your access to and use of our websites, emails, texts, mobile applications, and associated services (collectively, the “Loominate Platform” or the “Platform”). These Terms also include our Privacy Policy. By accessing and using the Platform, you agree to comply with these Terms. If you are using the Platform on behalf of a company or other legal entity, then "you" also means such company or legal entity and you agree to be bound by these Terms even if we have a separate agreement with you. You may not use the Platform if you do not agree to the version of the Terms posted on the Platform at the time you access the Platform.
We are registered in Singapore and have our registered office at 11 River Valley Close, 32-03, Singapore 238437. Our company number is UEN: 202135498H. You agree that by accessing the Platform, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Terms of Use, including the Community Guidelines posted on the Platform, which are incorporated into these Terms of Use.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE TERMS OF USE, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE PLATFORM AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY. THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS, AND ALSO LIMIT THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE. SEE SECTION 14 FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
Modifications to Terms
Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Platform from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Terms of Use from time to time. We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last updated” date of these Terms of Use, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. Please ensure that you check the applicable Terms every time you use our Platform so that you understand which Terms apply. You will be subject to, and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Terms of Use by your continued use of the Platform after the date such revised Terms of Use are posted.
The information provided on the Platform is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Platform from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.
The Platform is not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), etc.), so if your interactions would be subjected to such laws, you may not use this Platform. You may not use the Platform in a way that would violate the Gramm- Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).
Eligibility to use the platform
To access or use the Platform, you must be at least 16 years of age or, if older, the age of majority in your jurisdiction. Otherwise you may not use the Platform. Except as set forth below, or as otherwise approved by us, the Platform is for your personal, non-commercial use unless you enter into a separate agreement with us for your commercial use. You may not use the Platform if we have terminated your account or banned you. An employer and its authorized agent(s) are permitted to use the employer's account and any data about that employer provided via that account for the employer's internal business purposes.
User Representations
By using the Platform, you represent and warrant that: (1) all registration information you submit will be true, accurate, current, and complete; (2) you will maintain the accuracy of such information and promptly update such registration information as necessary; (3) you have the legal capacity and you agree to comply with these Terms of Use; (4) you are not under the age of 16; (5) you are not a minor in the jurisdiction in which you reside, or if a minor, you have received parental permission to use the Platform; (6) you will not access the Platform through automated or non-human means, whether through a bot, script or otherwise; (7) you will not use the Platform for any illegal or unauthorized purpose; and (8) your use of the Platform will not violate any applicable law or regulation.
If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Platform (or any portion thereof).
User Registrations
You may be required to register with the Platform. You agree to keep your password/passcode confidential and will be responsible for all use of your account and password. We reserve the right to remove, reclaim, or change a username you select if we determine, in our sole discretion, that such username is inappropriate, obscene, or otherwise objectionable.
Platform Account
Loominate Platform Account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your name, employer, email address, phone number, or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up-to-date at all times. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. Loominate disclaims any liability for third party actions made under your account. Once you have set up a password, you will be given access to your profile and other private areas of your account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password. You agree to notify us immediately if you suspect any unauthorized use of your account or access to your password. You are solely responsible for any and all use of your account. Passwords are subject to cancellation or suspension by Loominate at any time. When you set up an individual user account on the Platform, we create a member profile (a "Profile") for you that will include personal information you provide. Loominate will use its best efforts to verify your organization membership through various methods including entity email verification. Loominate is not responsible if it is unable to properly verify your membership.
You understand that the default confidentiality setting for your user profile is that your company name, title, and other information (but not including your posts, comments, or reactions) will be visible to all users within your organization's space. You acknowledge that Loominate cannot guarantee your anonymity since, depending on your specific situation and circumstances and the contents of your posts, semi-anonymous identifiers (such as username) may allow someone to identify you or narrow down your identity to a smaller group of employees at your company. You should understand this risk before contributing content to the Platform.
Third-party websites and content
The Platform may contain (or you may be sent via the Platform) links to other websites ("Third- Party Websites") as well as content or items belonging to or originating from other users, advertisers and other third parties ("Third-Party Content"). "Content" means any work of authorship or information, including salaries, photos, logos, advertisements, comments, opinions, postings, resumes, messages, text, files, images, photos, works of authorship, e-mail, data, audio, video, applications, software or other materials you find on the Platform. Such Third-Party Websites and Third-Party Content are not investigated, monitored, or checked for accuracy, appropriateness, or completeness by us, and we are not responsible for any Third-Party Websites accessed through the Platform or any Third-Party Content posted on, available through, or installed from the Platform, including the content, accuracy, offensiveness, opinions, reliability, privacy practices, or other policies of or contained in the Third-Party Websites or the Third-Party Content. Inclusion of, linking to, or permitting the use or installation of any Third-Party Websites or any Third-Party Content does not imply approval or endorsement thereof by us. If you decide to leave the Platform and access the Third-Party Websites or to use or install any Third-Party Content, you do so at your own risk, and you should be aware these Terms of Use no longer govern. You should review the applicable terms and policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of any website to which you navigate from the Platform or relating to any applications you use or install from the Platform. Any purchases you make through Third-Party Websites will be through other websites and from other companies, and we take no responsibility whatsoever in relation to such purchases which are exclusively between you and the applicable third party. You agree and acknowledge that we do not endorse the products or services offered on Third-Party Websites and you shall hold us harmless from any harm caused by your purchase of such products or services. Additionally, you shall hold us harmless from any losses sustained by you or harm caused to you relating to or resulting in any way from any Third-Party Content or any contact with Third-Party Websites.
Because we do not control such Content, you understand and agree that:
we are not responsible for, and do not endorse, any such Content, including advertising and information about third-party products and services, job ads, or the employer and salary-related information provided by other users, or the opinions of panelists, bowl leaders, or other users, including those involved in audio events, or translations, transcriptions, or captions of any such Content; we make no guarantees about the accuracy, currency, suitability, reliability or quality of the information in such Content, including translations, transcriptions, or captions; and we assume no responsibility for unintended, objectionable, inaccurate, misleading, or unlawful Content made available by users, advertisers, and third parties.
In accordance with Section 230 of the U.S. Communications Decency Act, and any equivalent or similar laws in other jurisdictions which are intended to exclude or limit the liability of online service providers who provide access to user-generated content, we generally cannot be held liable for claims arising from the Content provided by third parties on the Platform.
You represent, warrant and covenant that you are not located in, or a resident or a national of, any country subject to a U.S. government embargo, sanctions, or other restriction, or that has been designated by the U.S. government as a “terrorist supporting” country; on any of the U.S. government lists of restricted end users; or
the subject of sanctions consistent with U.S. law imposed by the government of the country where you are using the Platform.
Links to Third-Party Websites. The Platform may contain links to third-party websites placed by us as a service to those interested in this information or posted by other users. Your use of all such links to third-party websites is at your own risk. We do not monitor or have any control over, and make no claim or representation, regarding third-party websites. To the extent such links are provided by us, they are provided only as a convenience, and a link to a third-party website does not imply our endorsement, adoption, or sponsorship of, or affiliation with, such third-party website. When you leave the Platform, our terms and policies do not govern your use of third-party websites.
User Generated Contributions
The Platform may invite you to chat, contribute to, or participate in blogs, message boards, online forums, and other functionality, and may provide you with the opportunity to create, submit, post, display, transmit, perform, publish, distribute, or broadcast content and materials to us or on the Platform, including but not limited to text, writings, video, audio, photographs, graphics, comments, suggestions, or personal information or other material (collectively, "Contributions"). Contributions may be viewable by other users of the Platform and through third-party websites. As such, any Contributions you transmit may be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary. When you create or make available any Contributions, you thereby represent and warrant that:
1. The creation, distribution, transmission, public display, or performance, and the accessing, downloading, or copying of your Contributions do not and will not infringe the proprietary rights, including but not limited to the copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or moral rights of any third party.

Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Use (each "Dispute" and collectively, the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding Arbitration

The number of arbitrators shall be three (3). The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be Singapore, Singapore. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. The governing law of the contract shall be the substantive law of Singapore.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
