If you are a 2Words member in the United States (including its possessions and territories), you and 2Words agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the 2Words service, these Terms of Use and this Arbitration Agreement, shall be determined by binding arbitration or in small claims court. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award and nothing in this Arbitration Agreement shall be interpreted as limiting any non-waivable statutory rights. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and 2Words are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your 2Words membership.

• 7.2. If you elect to seek arbitration or file a small claim court action, you must first send to 2W International, LLC, by certified mail, a written Notice of your claim (“Notice”). The Notice to 2Words must be addressed to: 2W International, LLC, P.O. Box 3684, Bryan, Texas 77805 (“Notice Address”). If 2Words initiates arbitration, it will send a written Notice to the email address used for your membership account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by 2Words, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If 2Words and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or 2Words may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court.

• 7.3. If a dispute arises from or relates to this contract or the breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through direct discussions, the parties agree to endeavor first to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Procedures before resorting to arbitration. The parties further agree that any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement.

8. Miscellaneous

In the event of any conflict between these Terms of Use and information provided by Customer Service or other portions of our website, these Terms of Use will control.

I hereby release 2Words Companies, representatives, employees, managers, members, officers, parent companies, subsidiaries, and directors, from all claims and demands arising out of or in connection with any use of said “Materials”, including, without limitation, all claims for invasion of privacy, infringement of my right of publicity, defamation and any other personal and/or property rights. I acknowledge and agree that no sums whatsoever will be due to me as a result of the use and/or exploitation of the “Materials” or any rights therein. Confidentiality/Procedures in regards to all individuals (both minors and adults) interacting on Social Media Platforms with 2Words Companies and representatives, including but not limited to: Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook

• 9.1 Sharing information about students/athletes with administrators/school staff. Sharing information with administration is important when a student’s safety is in question. This may be sexual behaviors, self-harm, drug use or threats to self or others. We will notify coaches or administrators of any threats to self or others. Anything that we are told via social media is considered public information, and we will report everything received to the appropriate individual. Once all information (including complete documentation of messages) has been sent to the school counselor or coach, 2Words, MackeySpeaks, and Tier1 Leadership are no longer responsible for the actions taken.

• 9.2 Procedures if a student states she is pregnant: We will immediately report to the school counselor or coach if a student/ athlete has reached out via social media to share they are pregnant. Once the counselor is notified, we will encourage them to find out how or if the student has confirmed her pregnancy. Other issues to consider include whether the sex was consensual and the age difference of both parties. If we are given that information, we will then send all relevant information to the counselor or coach. Once all information (including complete documentation of messages) has been sent to the counselor, 2Words, MackeySpeaks, and Tier1 Leadership are no longer responsible for the actions taken.

• 9.3 Procedures if a student states she/he was touched by an adult several years earlier or by another student more recently: If the student tells us he/she was inappropriately touched, we will immediately share that information to the school counselor or coach regardless of the amount of time that has passed. We still have a duty to report. If the student was touched by another student, we will go through a Title IX protocol. We will contact the individual’s school administration who then has the responsibility of contacting the local police department to investigate. In the case of young children, the administration is responsible for contacting child protective services. We will not ever question if the student is being honest, but will immediately report what we have been told. Once all information (including complete documentation of messages) has been sent to the school counselor or coach, 2Words, MackeySpeaks, and Tier1 Leadership are no longer responsible for the actions taken.

• 9.4 Procedures when a student/athlete claims to have suicidal thoughts/actions: We will report to the school counselor immediately. The school counselor is then responsible for the actions of the student/athlete and should immediately perform a suicide risk assessment as soon as hearing that a student talks about harming himself/herself, or if there is concern that a student has thoughts about hurting himself/herself. Once all information (including complete documentation of messages) has been sent to the counselor, 2Words, MackeySpeaks, and Tier1 Leadership are no longer responsible for the actions taken.

• 9.5 Procedures when a student has an inappropriate social media handle or biography. If a student makes claims of illegal actions or shows signs of mental health issues, we will ask the student/athlete about it and report immediately to the school counselor or coach. Once all information (including complete documentation of messages) has been sent to the school counselor or coach, 2Words, MackeySpeaks, and Tier1 Leadership are no longer responsible for the actions taken.

• 9.6 Procedures when a student wants to communicate via direct messages. If a student reaches out for questions/comments we will answer all they need accordingly and immediately stop conversation. If the student/athlete proceeds to incessantly reach out once information and encouragement have been given we will not reply. If the behavior continues, we will then report the student/ athlete to their coach or school administration. Once all information (including complete documentation of messages) has been sent to the school counselor or coach, 2Words, MackeySpeaks, and Tier1 Leadership are no longer responsible for the actions taken.
