Every company has its terms. These are ours.
1. Our service
MINGL helps you discover and do what you love. To do that, we show you things and people we think will be relevant, interesting and personal to you based on your onsite and offsite activity. To provide our Service, we need to be able to identify you and your interests. Some of the things we show you are promoted by advertisers. As part of our service we try to ensure that even promoted content is relevant and interesting to you. You can identify promoted content because it will be clearly labelled.

If you’re based in the EEA, you may only use MINGL if you are over the age at which you can provide consent to data processing under the laws of your country. Using MINGL may include downloading software to your computer, phone, tablet, or other device. You agree that we may automatically update that software, and these Terms will apply to any updates.

MINGL allows you to post content, including photos, comments, links, and other materials. Anything that you post or otherwise make available on MINGL is referred to as “User Content.” You retain all rights in, and are solely responsible for, the User Content you post to MINGL .

Nothing in these Terms restricts other legal rights MINGL may have to User Content, for example under other licenses.

This includes User Content that we believe violates these Terms, our Community Guidelines, or any other policies.

If you’re a consumer in the EEA, we don’t exclude or limit any liability for gross negligence, intent, or death or personal injury caused by our negligence or willful misconduct.
More simply put
Unfortunately, people post bad stuff on services like MINGL . We take that kind of thing seriously but you still might run into it before we have a chance to take it down. If you see bad stuff, please report it to us here.
10. Limitation of liability
If we cause damage to you and you’re a consumer in the EEA, the above doesn’t apply. Instead, MINGL ’s liability will be limited to foreseeable damages arising due to a breach of material contractual obligations typical for this type of contract. MINGL isn’t liable for damages that result from a non-material breach of any other applicable duty of care. This limitation of liability won’t apply to any statutory liability that cannot be limited, to liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or willful misconduct, or if and to exclude our responsibility for something we have specifically promised to you.
More simply put
We are building the best service we can for you but we can’t promise it will be perfect. We’re not liable for various things. If you think we are, let’s try to work it out like adults.
11. Arbitration
Arbitration is a more informal way to resolve our disagreements than a lawsuit in court. For instance, arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, involves more limited discovery, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Although the process is more informal, arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Service, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and MINGL are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your MINGL account.
Any arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect for the AAA, except as provided herein. You can find their forms at www.adr.org. Unless you and MINGL agree otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the county (or parish) where you reside. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA Rules, except that MINGL will pay for your reasonable filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees if your claim for damages does not exceed $75,000 and is non-frivolous (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision explaining the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts, including for matters related to data security, intellectual property or unauthorized access to the Service. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND MINGL ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
NOTHING IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE SHALL AFFECT ANY NON-WAIVABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS THAT APPLY TO YOU. To the extent any claim, dispute or controversy regarding MINGL or our Service isn’t arbitrable under applicable laws or otherwise: you and MINGL both agree that any claim or dispute regarding MINGL will be resolved exclusively in accordance with Section 12 of these Terms.
If you’re a consumer in the EEA, Section 11 doesn’t apply to you.
12. Governing law and jurisdiction
If you are a consumer in the EEA, this won’t deprive you of any protection you have under the law of the country where you live and access to the courts in that country.
More simply put
The Bay Area is beautiful this time of year. It doesn’t matter what time of year it is, that’s what’s so great! Anyway, you’ll have to sue us here.
In the EEA, this applies if you’re a merchant, but not if you’re a consumer. If you are a consumer in the EEA, you can sue us in your home courts.
13. General terms
We reserve the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to you, and you agree to receive legal notices electronically if that’s what we decide. We may revise these Terms from time to time and the most current version will always be posted on our website. If a revision, in our discretion, is material, we’ll notify you. By continuing to access or use MINGL after revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the new Terms. If you don’t agree to the new terms, please stop using MINGL .
More simply put
If we’re making a big change to the terms, we’ll let you know. If you don’t like the new terms, please stop using MINGL .
These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by MINGL without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void.
If you’re a consumer in the EEA, either you or MINGL may assign this agreement, and any rights and licences granted under it, to a third party. In case of such an assignment by MINGL , you are entitled to terminate the agreement with immediate effect by deactivating your account. MINGL will provide you with reasonable notice of any such assignment.
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any amendments and any additional agreements you may enter into with MINGL shall constitute the entire agreement between you and MINGL concerning the Service. If any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid, then that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
No waiver of any term of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and MINGL ‘s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
All communication to MINGL is through admin@mingl.com.co
