Terms of Service | kemeriglen Community Standards

Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Service govern your use of kemeriglen and its services. By accessing and using our platform, you agree to be bound by these terms and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you may not use our services. We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time, and your continued use of our platform constitutes acceptance of any changes. Your use of our website is at your own risk, and we provide our services on an "as-is" basis. We recommend that you review these terms regularly to stay informed of any updates or modifications that may affect your rights and obligations as a user of our community platform.

User Obligations

As a member of our community, you agree to use our platform responsibly and in accordance with all applicable laws. You must not engage in any conduct that could harm other members, disrupt our services, or violate the rights of others. This includes harassment, discrimination, or any form of abusive behavior toward fellow dance enthusiasts. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account information and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to provide accurate and truthful information when creating your profile and participating in our events. We expect all users to treat each other with respect and courtesy, regardless of skill level, background, or experience in dance. Violation of these obligations may result in suspension or termination of your account without prior notice.

Intellectual Property Rights

All content on our platform, including text, images, graphics, and dance guides, is protected by intellectual property laws. We retain full ownership of all original content, including our kizomba and salsa guides, event descriptions, and community resources. You may not reproduce, distribute, or transmit any content without our explicit written permission. User-generated content, such as comments or photos from our gatherings in Rīga, Jūrmala, and Liepāja, remains the property of the user who created it. However, by posting content on our platform, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, display, and distribute that content for community purposes. We respect the intellectual property rights of third parties and expect our users to do the same. Any infringement of intellectual property rights may result in legal action and immediate account termination.

Limitation of Liability

We are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our platform or participation in our dance events. While we strive to provide accurate information about our weekend gatherings and themed dance nights, we make no warranties regarding the completeness or accuracy of our content. You assume all responsibility for your safety and well-being during any in-person events in Baltic coastal towns. We are not responsible for injuries, accidents, or other incidents that may occur at our socials or dance gatherings. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability to you shall not exceed the amount you paid, if any, for access to our services. We do not warrant that our platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free from viruses or harmful components. Your use of our services is entirely at your own risk.

Termination of Account

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without cause, and without prior notice. Termination may occur if you violate these terms, engage in harmful behavior, or fail to comply with community guidelines. Upon termination, your access to all platform features and services will be immediately revoked. You may also choose to terminate your account by submitting a request through our platform. Upon termination, all your account information may be deleted in accordance with our privacy practices. We will not be liable for any loss of data or access to our services resulting from account termination. Termination does not relieve you of any obligations incurred prior to the date of termination. If your account is terminated due to violation of these terms, you may not create a new account without our express written consent.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Latvia, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from your use of our platform shall be resolved through binding arbitration rather than court proceedings. By using our services, you agree to submit to the jurisdiction of arbitration for any claims or disputes. We encourage users to contact us first to attempt amicable resolution of any concerns. If arbitration is required, you agree to share costs equally unless otherwise determined. You waive any right to jury trial and the right to participate in class action proceedings. These dispute resolution provisions apply to all claims, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise. Nothing in this section shall prevent us from seeking equitable relief in court for intellectual property infringement or other urgent matters.
