Acceptance of these Terms of Service
Hello and thanks for using Who app. Our free-to-use consumer Web sites (e.g., hawiyyah.com), pay-to-use consumer Web sites, and related mobile-focused applications and Web sites (our “Services”) are here to help you find other people and businesses online.
This Terms of Service agreement (the “Agreement” or “Terms”) is between you and Cascadialabs Inc., and sets forth the legally binding terms for your access and use of the Services. Who app provides the Services, and any text, graphics, photos, or other materials downloaded from or appearing on the Services (such materials, “ Content”). Certain features of the Services may be subject to additional guidelines, terms or rules, which will be posted in or on the Services in connection with such features. All such additional terms, guidelines and rules are incorporated by reference into this Agreement.
Each time that you access or use the Services, you signify that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by these Terms, as well as our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference here in. When services from other Web sites and/or applications are made available through the Services (e.g., by logging into any of the Services using a social media username and password), you agree to be legally bound by the terms and conditions and privacy policies of those other Web sites and/or applications. Please take a few minutes and read the Terms of Service agreement that you’re entering into, and pay special attention to our dispute resolution policy in our privacy policy page which requires binding arbitration in most circumstances.
IF YOU DISAGREE WITH ANY OF THESE TERMS, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES.
Electronic Communications: By accessing the Services, you consent to have this Agreement provided to you in electronic form and that all agreements, disclosures, and other communications that we may provide to you in electronic form satisfy any legal requirements that our communications with you be in writing. You acknowledge that when you provide us with your contact information, including an email address or telephone number (“Contact Information”), sharing this information with us constitutes a “purchase” or “inquiry” that establishes a business relationship between you and us.
You expressly agree that we may communicate with you about the Services, using any or all Contact Information you provide to us. You also represent and warrant that you have the legal authority over any telephone number you provide to us. We may contact you, in person or by recorded message, by e-mail, telephone and/or mobile telephone number (including use of automated dialing equipment), text message (SMS or MMS), or any other means of communication that your telecommunications device may be capable of receiving. You may select to opt out of receiving marketing emails at any time by following the instructions and link provided in the email. Please allow up to ten business days for our systems to reflect your marketing communication preferences.
