These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the online voting and meeting platform (the “Services”) provided by Motion Meetings Inc. (“Motion,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a company operating from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. These Terms apply to all users of the Services, including organizations or entities that subscribe to the Services (“Customers”), their authorized representatives, and any individuals invited to participate in meetings or events via the Services (“Participants” or “End-Users”). Collectively, Customers, Participants, and End-Users are referred to as “you” or “your.”
By accessing or using the Services—whether by registering an account, clicking to accept, participating in a meeting as an invitee, or otherwise—you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are accepting on behalf of a company, organization, or other entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms. If you do not have such authority or do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Services.
The Services are not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13. If you are under 13, you may not use the Services. For users under 18 (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction), parental or guardian consent is required, and we comply with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and similar laws.
Our direct competitors are prohibited from accessing the Services, except with our prior written consent. The Services may not be used for benchmarking, monitoring performance, or competitive purposes without our consent.
