Welcome to Rescueit (“Service” or “Site”), owned and operated by Minds Insider LLC (“Rescueit”). By clicking “I Agree” on the account registration or payment page or using the Site in any way, you are agreeing to comply with and be bound by this Agreement, the Privacy Policy, and all rules, policies, and disclaimers posted on the Site or about which you are notified (collectively “Terms”). Please review all of the Terms carefully before using the Site.

By using the Site, you (i) agree to be bound by the Terms, (ii) represent that you are over the age of thirteen (13) and able to form legally binding contracts, (iii) agree and acknowledge that by using the Service you are accepting a benefit that cannot be disgorged, (iv) acknowledge that the service is subject to U.S. export controls and agree that you will comply with  U.S. export controls,  and (v) represent that you are neither located in a  sanctioned country  nor a prohibited person.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE TERMS PROVIDE THAT IF YOU AND RESCUEIT ARE UNABLE TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTES THAT ARISE EITHER INFORMALLY OR THROUGH MEDIATION, THE DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY. YOU AND RESCUEIT ALSO AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES CANNOT BE BROUGHT AS A CLASS ACTION. PLEASE CAREFULLY REVIEW THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION SECTION. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THE ARBITRATION PROVISION BELOW, YOU MAY NOT USE THE SITE.

THESE TERMS ALSO EXPLAIN THE CONSENT YOU PROVIDE TO US TO CONTACT YOU USING THE TELEPHONE NUMBERS YOU PROVIDE TO US, INCLUDING VIA AUTOMATED DIALING OR TEXTING SYSTEMS.

2. Definitions

The words “User,” “you” and “your” refer to the individual or entity that creates a Rescueit account as a Customer and/or Expert. “Rescueit,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Rescueit. “Customer” refers to the person who asks a question on the Site. “Expert” refers to the person who answers a question on the Site.

3. Communications and Right to Modify Terms

When you visit Rescueit or send us e-mails, you are communicating with us electronically as well as via e-mail, text message, calls and push notifications. You consent to receive communications from us through the means outlined above or by posting notices on the Site. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically or through other means, satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. You agree to provide us with, and maintain in your Rescueit account profile, your current and active email address.

Rescueit may modify any of the Terms at any time by posting them on the Site. Changes shall automatically be effective upon posting; provided, however, that those changes that Rescueit, in its sole discretion, deems material changes to the Terms will be effective as to an existing User upon the earlier of: (1) the agreement of the User; or (2) thirty (30) days after notice to the existing User from an support@rescueit.co email address to the User’s email address on file with Rescueit or via other means including, but not limited to, a pop-up or banner, message, or other conspicuous notice on the Rescueit website. If you affirmatively agree to the new terms, your agreement will be effective immediately. You agree to make any and all necessary arrangements so that you (and not your spam filter) receive all emails from Rescueit email addresses. Your continued use of the Service will signify your acceptance of the changes. If you do not accept the changes, your sole and exclusive remedy is to cancel your account and discontinue using the Site.  The latest Terms will be posted on the Site, and you should always review them prior to using the Site.

5. Rescueit Is a Venue; Third-Party Content

The Rescueit Site is a venue for informational and educational purposes, owned and operated by Rescueit, that exists solely to broker relationships between Experts and potential Customers of those Experts who are interested in purchasing their Expert services. Rescueit is not in the business of providing or selling information or education that is within any Expert’s area of Expertise. Users of the Site, not Rescueit, provide the content in Posts (defined below). The Experts determine which questions to answer; Experts are not employees or agents of Rescueit but are independent service providers using the Site to sell their Expert knowledge to Customers and, as such, together with Customers, are simply Users of the Site.

Rescueit is not involved in the conversations between Customers and Experts and does not refer Customers to or endorse or recommend particular Experts. You understand and acknowledge that Rescueit cannot and does not edit, modify, filter, screen, monitor, endorse or guarantee the content of Posts. Rescueit shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of Experts, content in Posts or the ability of Experts to answer questions. We cannot ensure that an Expert will complete a transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Rescueit reserves the right, but is not obligated, to refuse to post or to remove any content and/or remove any User’s access to the Site.

6. Posts Are Not Private or Confidential; Anonymity

The Site is an Internet-based forum.  Information and materials submitted in the content of your questions, answers, requests for information, responses, profiles, signatures, qualifications, comments, and posts in the Expert Forum and other places where Users communicate on the Site (collectively “Posts”)  is not private or confidential, nor is it protected by attorney-client, doctor-patient, or any other privilege, and it may be read, collected, and used by others.  For example, search engines may index your questions, answers, and other Posts to allow them to appear in search engine results (e.g. if someone does a search on google.com or another search engine, your questions, answers, and other Posts on Rescueit.us that relate to the search may appear in the search results list).  To help protect your privacy, use an anonymous user name and do not include information regarding your identity or contact information in your Posts.

7. Verification; No Reliance on the Term “Expert”

Every Expert on the Site has had at least one credential relevant to the category in which they are answering questions verified by a third-party verification service, unless the Expert is answering questions in a category that is still being tested by Rescueit in “Beta” (indicated by the “Beta” graphic after the category name on the category’s landing page and/or the URL beginning with www.rescueit.us/…). Details regarding the credential(s) verified for each verified Expert can be found by clicking the “What’s This” link next to the “Verified” logo associated with each Expert. Other information about an Expert, not shown as verified, has been provided by the Expert but has not been verified. Use of the term “Expert” by Rescueit and on the Site is only meant to describe Users who answer questions on the Site, and not to guarantee any particular level of expertise of these Experts.

Regarding the verification process, Rescueit contracts with third-party service providers to perform the verifications described above; Rescueit does not itself verify the credentials of the Experts. The results of the verifications are only as accurate as the information provided to and by the third-party verification services, as of the time of the providing of information to and by the third-party verification services. Rescueit makes effort to verify, including using a third-party identity verification service, but cannot warrant or guarantee an Expert’s purported identity; user identification on the Internet is difficult. For these reasons, Rescueit cannot and does not represent, warrant or guarantee the truthfulness or accuracy of the credentials or identities of Users and information provided by Users including Experts. You acknowledge that Rescueit will not be liable for any loss or damages caused by your reliance on any information or content contained in Posts.

8. User Accounts; Restricted Activities; Suspension or Termination of Service

When you register as a User on the Site, you can establish a user name and password for access to your online account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your user name, password, and account data, and you may not share this information or your account with anyone else, and you will be solely responsible for all acts or omissions that occur under your account. You will immediately notify Rescueit of any unauthorized use of your password or account. You should only create one account on the Site. If your Rescueit account has been suspended or terminated, you may not open another account on the Site.

You agree to keep your contact and billing information (including but not limited to email address) up-to-date, and to comply with all billing procedures, including providing and maintaining accurate and lawful billing information for active Rescueit accounts.

Bound by Representatives

You are responsible for and bound by the actions of, and transactions entered into by, your actual and appointed representatives whether authorized by you in writing, verbally, or otherwise to represent you at or with Rescueit. You are responsible for monitoring your appointed representatives and protecting the privacy of your username, login information and any other account or financial information provided to Rescueit or its vendors and agree to inform us immediately, in writing, of any unauthorized use of same. If you are checking in or logging in as a representative for anyone other than yourself, you agree that you are a duly appointed and authorized representative for that person or entity and have authority to bind that person or entity to any actions or transactions you conduct.

Restricted Activities

You agree that any content you provide on the Site and your use of our Site or any Additional Services (whether such Additional Services are Informational or Beyond-Information Only, as defined below) initiated through the Site shall not: (a) be fraudulent, inaccurate or misleading; (b) infringe any third party’s proprietary rights or rights of publicity or privacy; (c) be illegal or violate any federal, state or local law, statute, ordinance, regulation or ethical code; (d) be defamatory, trade libelous, unlawfully threatening or unlawfully harassing; (e) be obscene or contain child pornography or, if otherwise adult in nature or harmful to minors, but without containing child pornography; (f) contain any viruses, Trojan horses, or other computer programming routines that may damage, detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data or personal information; (g) create liability for us or cause us to lose (in whole or in part) the services of our ISPs or other suppliers; or (h) link directly or indirectly to or include descriptions of goods or services that are prohibited under the Terms or that you do not have a right to link to or include. If you post material that is adult in nature, such material shall be posted with “Mature Audiences Only” in the listing title and appropriate notices to prevent unauthorized underage viewing and shall be distributed only to people legally permitted to receive such content. You may not consummate any transaction that was initiated using our Service that, by paying to us a fee, could cause us to violate any applicable law, statute, ordinance or regulation. Furthermore, you may not resell or make any commercial use of our system or the content on the Site without Rescueit’s prior written consent. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age, and if we become aware that a child under the age of 13 has submitted personal information to us, we will promptly remove it from our systems.

Suspension or Termination of Service

Customers may terminate your service and account at your sole discretion and at any time by written notice via e-mail to support@rescueit.co. Terminations typically will be effective within seven business days after our receipt of your termination notice, at which time your account will be closed and you will no longer enjoy access to your former account. Any fees accrued as of the effective date of termination will be payable according to the Terms. The procedure for Experts to terminate their accounts is set forth in the Expert Agreement.

At any time, with or without notice, for any or no reason, Rescueit reserves the right to modify or discontinue any portion or all of the Site or Services, and to restrict, suspend and terminate Customers’ accounts. The procedure for termination by Rescueit of Experts’ accounts is set forth in the Expert Agreement.

Terms and Conditions Specific to Mobile Applications

Once you have registered as a User on the Site, you may elect to download and use different versions of the Rescueit mobile application (the “App”). Download and use of the App is completely optional. By downloading and using one or more versions of the Rescueit App, you agree that in addition to this Agreement governing your use of the App and the Rescueit , the following terms and conditions specifically applicable to your use of the App (the “Mobile Terms”) also apply to you:

  1. (a) You acknowledge that the Mobile Terms and the Agreement is between you and Rescueit, and not any other third-party beneficiary (as defined below in (b)) and you understand that Rescueit is solely responsible for the App;
  2. (b) Additionally, Apple, Google, Inc., Microsoft Corporation or BlackBerry Limited will be a third-party beneficiary to this contract if you access the Rescueit platform using Applications developed for Apple iOS, Android, Microsoft Windows, or Blackberry-powered mobile devices, respectively;
  3. (c) Your access and use of the Rescueit App using these devices is subject to terms set forth in the applicable third-party beneficiary’s terms of service;
  4. (d) The third-party beneficiaries listed above are not parties to this Agreement and are not responsible for the provision or support of the Rescueit platform in any way;
  5. (e) If you are accessing the Rescueit App through an Apple device, you acknowledge that Apple and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Apple”) are third party beneficiaries of the Agreement and upon your download of and use of the App indicating your assent and agreement to the Mobile Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce the Mobile Terms against you as a third party beneficiary thereof.

9. Charges, Rating the Expert, Refund and Cancellation Policy

Rescueit’s platform allows Customers to post questions to Experts in subject-matter categories, facilitates communication with Experts via chat, emails, and online message boards, and enables delivery of answers to your questions, among other services (“Site Access Benefits”).

Pay-Per-Question

With the pay-per-question or one time model, you select the price that you are willing to pay for the Site Access Benefits related to a single question. Once you have selected the price and submitted your payment information, your question may be posted on Rescueit.

Rating the Expert

Experts typically respond to Customers’ questions quickly. If the Expert requests further information before answering your question, you may wish to take advantage of the opportunity to provide more information to the Expert to allow the Expert to help you better.

Once the Expert answers your question, you will be asked to rate the Expert. If you provide a rating of 1 or 2, you will be asked to provide the Expert with feedback about why you are unsatisfied, so the Expert may try to help you better. By posting a question and clicking to retrieve your answer, you are authorizing Rescueit to charge your payment source (for example, the credit card or PayPal account you provided to Rescueit). A portion of your payments may be paid to the Expert instead of to Rescueit.

Rescueit does not guarantee that you will receive a response from an Expert, or that you will be satisfied with your communication with an Expert. For Pay-Per-Question Customers, in the rare instance that no Expert responds at all to your question, you agree that any amount up to $5 charged upon posting of your question may be retained by Rescueit in consideration for the Site Access Benefits received. See Refunds section below for information on requesting a refund.

Refunds, Cancellations, Abuse and Special Programs.

Generally, the fees you have paid are non-refundable and/or non-exchangeable, unless otherwise is stated herein or required by applicable law.

Rescueit maintains the right to initiate special incentive pricing, membership, and other programs. These may be limited, at Rescueit’s sole discretion, to defined and limited Users or non-Users. Any promotional monies or credits placed into Customer accounts by Rescueit for use towards Site Access Benefits on the Site remain the property of Rescueit (they never become the property of Customers and never become refundable to the Customer), and unless otherwise stated on the Site or in an email to a Customer, will be usable only for thirty (30) days.

19. Dispute Resolution

If you are an Expert (as defined in the Expert Agreement) with a dispute, claim or controversy of any sort and of any nature (collectively, “dispute”) against Rescueit in your capacity as an Expert, then the arbitration agreement in the Expert Agreement applies instead of this one. If your dispute with Rescueit is made in your capacity as User who is not an Expert, then the following dispute resolution provisions apply.

This Section D.21 may be referred to as the parties’ “Dispute Resolution Agreement.” If you have a dispute with Rescueit or if Rescueit has a dispute with you and such dispute cannot be resolved informally, such dispute will be resolved on an individual basis in accordance with the provisions set forth below:

(a) Informal Resolution

Prior to initiating mediation or arbitration, the party with a grievance must:

  1. Notify the other party, in writing, of the facts of the dispute and all damages claimed. Such a writing must be sent to the User’s email address on file with Rescueit, or Minds Insider LLC, 8 The Green ADover, DE 19901, US or support@rescueit.co, whichever is applicable (“Dispute Notification”);
  2. The party receiving the Dispute Notification has thirty (30) days from receipt of the Dispute Notification to respond.
  3. The other party then has 15 days to reply to the response.

(b) Mediation

If the dispute is not resolved informally, either party may make a demand for mediation, with the other party’s consent, by filing a:

  1. Request for AAA Online Mediation for Claims under $10,000 with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); or
  2. Request for Mediation with the AAA. 

20. Agreement; Assignment; Miscellaneous

The Terms constitute the complete and exclusive statement of the Agreement between you and us on the subject matter addressed herein. It supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous agreement, oral or written, and any other communications, representations, warranties and understanding relating to the subject matter of the Terms. For those Users who have become Experts, nothing in this Agreement supersedes the terms of the Expert Agreement, and in the event of a conflict between this Agreement (or later versions of this Agreement) and the Expert Agreement, the terms of the Expert Agreement shall prevail. If there is a conflict between an oral or written representation of any Rescueit employee or agent and the Terms (other than modifications to the Terms executed in writing by the CEO or authorized-in-fact representative of Rescueit), the Terms will prevail. To the extent the Terms are in conflict or inconsistent with one another, this Agreement and the Privacy Policy will prevail over other Terms of the Site; also, this Agreement, the Privacy Policy, and disclaimers will prevail over FAQs, and other rules and policies on the Site. If any provision(s) of the Terms is held by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, then such provision(s) shall be construed, as nearly as possible, to reflect the intentions of the parties and the other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Rescueit’s failure to exercise or enforce any of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of Rescueit’s right to exercise or enforce the Terms as to the same or another instance. Headings in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of the Terms.

You agree that Rescueit may assign the Terms to any other entity of its choosing, with or without notice to you. You may not assign the Terms to any other party for any reason, including, but not limited to, because your interaction with other users of the Site, the pricing offered, and fraud mechanisms in place, are based upon individual usage. Rescueit shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies unless such waiver is in writing and signed by an officer of Rescueit. No delay or omission on the part of Rescueit in exercising any rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any other rights or remedies on future occasions. The section titles in the Terms are solely used for the convenience of the parties and have no legal or contractual significance.

Additional Services

You may be presented with an offer for services outside of the Site’s standard question-and-answer platform (“Additional Services”).

Rescueit is only a venue which facilitates communication between Experts and potential Users of Additional Services. It does not provide any of the substance or content of any Additional Service initiated through Rescueit’s platform.

Rescueit will in no way be liable for any acts or omissions of Experts in performing Additional Services (or any services) for you.

Additional Services may be: (1) “Information Only;” or (2) “Beyond Information Only.” “Information Only” Additional Services are those additional services outside the Site’s standard question-and-answer platform and may be conducted off the Site (either by phone, chat, email, remote desktop or any other third-party tool) but remain for general informational services only. Additional Services that are “Beyond Information Only” facilitate Users’ exchange of services that are more than informational and that could potentially evolve into a professional relationship.

Charges for Additional Services will be described in the particular offer. Any amounts a Customer pays for Additional Services are divided into two distinct and equal parts: (i) Rescueit’s fee for enabling the request, offer and/or fulfillment of Additional Services and related services (“Additional Site Access Benefits”); and (ii) the Expert’s fee for the specific Additional Service provided to the User. By accepting these Terms of Service, Experts agree that any charges to Customers for Additional Services will be divided into these two distinct and equal parts.
