Acceptance of Terms of Use. By registering for and/or using the Service in any manner, including but not limited to visiting or browsing the Site, you agree to all of the terms and conditions contained herein ("Terms of Use"), which also incorporate UpTo Privacy Policy and all other operating rules, policies and procedures that may be published from time to time on the Site by UpTo, each of which is incorporated by reference and each of which may be updated by UpTo from time to time without notice to you in accordance with the terms set out under the "Updates to Terms of Use" section below. In addition, some services offered through the Service may be subject to additional terms and conditions specified by UpTo from time to time; your use of such services is subject to those additional terms and conditions, which are incorporated into these Terms of Use by this reference. These Terms of Use apply to all users of the Service, including, without limitation, users who are contributors of content, information, and other materials or services on the Site, individual users of the Service, and venues that access the Service.
To the extent that UpTo enters into a separate, signed agreement with you relating to your use of the Site (a “Signed Agreement”), and the terms of the Signed Agreement differ from these Terms of Use, then the terms of the Signed Agreement shall prevail.
Users of the Site that register to use the Service shall be considered "Registrants". Each time you use the Service, you signify that you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use of Use, you must discontinue using the Service. The Site is owned by UpTo. All references to UpTo, "us", "our", or "we" will be deemed to include UpTo.

UpTo will provide notice of changes to the Terms of Use by posting the new Terms of Use on the Site with a new Effective Date shown. All such changes in the Terms of Use shall be effective from the Effective Date set when it is posted on the Site. Your continued use of the Service after we post any changes to the Terms of Use signifies your agreement to any such changes. If you do not agree to such changes, you must discontinue using the Service by terminating your account with UpTo.

You understand and agree that your registration in UpTo is subject to and conditioned upon the following: your continued adherence to and compliance with these Terms of Use and any future modifications thereto and applicable law. Your violation of these Terms of Use, or any other agreement between you and UpTo constitute grounds for immediate termination of your registration without further notice at our sole discretion. We may also terminate your registration at any time, immediately and without notice, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that your conduct is detrimental to our business or the UpTo community. Termination of your registration will result in cancellation of all rights of access and use of the Service granted to Registrants and cancelled Registrants may be denied access to the Service or re-enrollment as Registrants. UpTo reserves the right to change, discontinue or suspend UpTo or any of the Service at any time for any reason. You may terminate your registration at any time by cancelling your account. Cases of suspected abuse, fraud, or breach of these Terms of Use shall be in UpTo’s sole discretion. Any decision UpTo makes relating to termination or suspension of any Subscriber’s account shall be final and binding. You understand and agree that we may terminate, modify, discontinue or abandon the Site or Service with or without notice to you and that we will not be liable to you or any third party as a result of such termination, modification, discontinuance or abandonment.

The location of arbitration shall be Wayne County, Michigan, USA.
Arbitration shall proceed solely on an individual basis without the right for any claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of others.

If any part of these Terms of Use is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, it will not impact any other provision of these Terms of Use, all of which will remain in full force and effect. The failure of UpTo to partially or fully exercise any rights or the waiver of UpTo of any breach of these Terms of Use by you, shall not prevent a subsequent exercise of such right by UpTo or be deemed a waiver by UpTo of any subsequent breach by you of the same or any other term of these Terms of Use. The rights and remedies of UpTo under these Terms of Use and any other applicable agreement between you and UpTo shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any such right or remedy shall not limit UpTo’s right to exercise any other right or remedy.
