Terms & Conditions

Last Revised June 7, 2021

We want you to know your rights and our rights and so we have prepared this agreement ("user agreement" or "agreement") between Grove, LLC. (“Grove”, "we", "our," "us") and you. This agreement sets the terms of your use of the Grove website and services. This agreement is meant to encourage a fair and tolerant place for ideas, people, links, and discussion.

First, the Legal Stuff

This agreement is a legal contract between you and us. You acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. If you do not agree to this agreement, you should not use Grove. Please take a look at Grove’s privacy policy too—it explains how we collect and use your information.

Your Access to Grove

Without advance notice and at any time, we may, for violations of this agreement or for any other reason we choose: (1) suspend your access to Grove, (2) suspend or terminate Your Account, and/or (3) remove any of your User Content from Grove. We reserve the right to monitor Grove, and your use of the Service means you agree to such monitoring. At the same time, we do not guarantee we will monitor at all.

Grove is for Your Lawful Use

You may not use Grove to break the law, violate an individual's privacy, or infringe any person or entity’s intellectual property or any other proprietary rights.

Grove is for fun

Grove is intended to be a place for your entertainment. We are not responsible for any decisions you make based on something you read on Grove.

Grove isn’t intended as a marketplace

Grove is not intended to be a marketplace for any goods or services. However, you may find commercial links, coupons, deals, advertisements and other third-party offers on Grove. In addition, Grove may have affiliate relationships with certain of these third parties and may receive compensation for any purchase made from them. Grove is not a party to, nor in any way responsible for, any transactions you have with these third parties, even if Grove has an affiliate relationship with such parties. For this reason, any transactions you undertake are your responsibility alone, so be careful.

You may not use Grove to conduct transactions for any illegal goods or services.

Your Grove Account

To participate on Grove, you must create an account that includes a username and password ("Your Account") and, if you want to be able to reset your password or have us contact you, an email address as well. Of course, you can also use Grove without logging in, but you will not have access to all features.

You are solely responsible for the information associated with Your Account and anything that happens related to Your Account.

You may not license, transfer, sell, or assign Your Account without our written approval.

Grove content

Grove contains graphics, text, photographs, images, video, audio, software, code, website compilation, website "look and feel," and advertisements supplied by us or our licensors, which we call "Grove content." Grove content is protected by intellectual property laws including copyright and other proprietary rights of the United States and foreign countries.

We grant you the right to access the Grove content in the manner described in this agreement. You may not otherwise make unauthorized commercial use of, reproduce, prepare derivative works, distribute copies, perform, or publicly display Grove content, except as permitted by the doctrine of fair use or as authorized in writing by us.

Your Content

You retain the rights to your copyrighted content or information that you submit to Grove ("user content") except as described below.

You agree that you have the right to submit anything you post, and that your user content does not violate the copyright, trademark, trade secret or any other personal or proprietary right of any other party.

Please take a look at Grove’s privacy policy for an explanation of how we may use or share information submitted by you or collected from you.

We Don’t Endorse User Content

We take no responsibility for, we do not expressly or implicitly endorse, and we do not assume any liability for any user content submitted by you to Grove.

Links and Grove

Grove is a place with many third-party hyperlinks posted by users like you. We are not responsible for the content or actions of any third party websites or services associated with posted links. You agree to take sole legal responsibility for any links you post, and neither this agreement nor our privacy policy applies to any content on other websites related to those links. You should consult the terms and privacy policies of those other websites to understand your rights.

Don’t Mess with Grove

You agree not to interrupt the serving of Grove, introduce malicious code onto Grove, make it difficult for anyone else to use Grove due to your actions, attempt to manipulate votes or Grove’s systems, or assist anyone in misusing Grove in any way. It takes a lot of work to maintain Grove. Be cool.

We support the responsible reporting of security vulnerabilities. To report a Grove security issue, please send an email to support@skyrocket.software.

Other Ways of Accessing Grove

We encourage the creation of other ways to access Grove, including browser extensions and mobile and desktop applications. We take no responsibility for, we do not expressly or implicitly endorse, and we do not assume any liability for any mobile or desktop application not produced by us.

If you produce or maintain a browser extension or application, you agree not to purposefully negate any user's actions to delete or edit their content on Grove.

Children and Grove

Grove is not directed at people under the age of 13, and Grove does not knowingly collect any personal information from such people. If you know that a user under the age of 13 is accessing Grove, please contact us.

DMCA

A Few More Legalities

Please read the following very carefully. Each of the following sections applies to the maximum extent permitted by law. Where jurisdictions do not allow disclaimers of implied warranties or the limitation of liability in contracts, the contents of this section may not apply.

Indemnity

All the things you do and all the information you submit or post to Grove remain your responsibility. Indemnity is basically a way of saying that you will not hold us legally liable for any of your user content or actions that infringe the law or the rights of a third party or person in any way.

Specifically, you agree to hold Grove, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and third party service providers harmless from and defend them against any claims, costs, damages, losses, expenses, and any other liabilities, including attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or related to your access to or use of Grove, your violation of this user agreement, and/or your violation of the rights of any third party or person.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Grove is provided "as is" and without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we and our affiliates and third party service providers disclaim any and all warranties, express or implied, including (but not limited to) implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement of proprietary rights, or any other warranty, condition, guarantee or representation, whether oral or electronic. You are solely responsible for any damage to your computer or mobile device, loss of use, or loss of your user content. We do not guarantee that Grove will always work properly.

Limitation of Liability

We will not be liable for any special, consequential, indirect, incidental, punitive, reliance, or exemplary damages, whether in tort, contract, or any other legal theory, arising out of or in any way connected with this agreement or your use of or attempt to use Grove, including (but not limited to) damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, or data. This limitation on liability shall not be affected even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some states do not allow for the exclusion of implied warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you. You may have other rights that vary from state to state.

You agree to release us, our affiliates, and third-party service providers, and each associated director, employee, agents, and officers, from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential), of every kind and nature, known and unknown, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected to your use of Grove.

Governing Law

We want you to enjoy Grove, so if you have an issue or dispute, you agree to raise it and try to resolve it with us informally. You can contact us with feedback and concerns here or by emailing us at support@skyrocket.software.

The headings in this agreement are for convenience and do not control any of its provisions.

Any claim or dispute between you and us arising out of or relating to this user agreement, in whole or in part, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without respect to its conflict of laws provisions. We agree and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal court located in San Diego County, California.

Severability and Enforcement

If any provision of this user agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the extent necessary to render it enforceable without losing its intent.

If no such modification is possible, that provision will be severed from the rest of this agreement. If we do not enforce any right or provision in this user agreement, that is not to be deemed a waiver of our right to do so in the future.

Changes to This User Agreement

This user agreement is the entire agreement between you and us concerning Grove. It supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements between you and us. We may modify this user agreement at any time. If we make changes to this agreement that materially affect your rights, we will provide advance notice and keep this edition available as an archive. By continuing to use Grove after a change to this agreement, you agree to those changes.
