More about the ZestLife Platform and Services

The ZestLife Platform creates access to a wide range of mental wellness groups and general wellness groups organized by a Group Leader, who may be a therapist, psychiatrist, psychologist, coach, social worker, or other licensed or non-licensed professional. Group Leaders are independent practitioners and are not employees or independent contractors hired by ZestLife.

ZestLife Platform. The ZestLife Platform is intended to be informational and educational, and enable platform services. Included service - Scheduling: The platform currently integrates a robust scheduling system. Users can seamlessly view, reserve, and schedule a wide range of mental wellness groups and general wellness groups (collectively referred to as “Groups”) facilitated by Group Leaders. See the Group Leader section below for more details. Included service - payment processing: A secure transaction system is embedded within the platform, allowing Users to effortlessly purchase, access, and attend Groups while ensuring transparent financial interactions.
Group topics. Group topics or focuses may include mental wellness, spirituality, nutrition, life, career, ﬁtness, healing, or ﬁnancial. Groups on the Platform may be described as skill building, workshops, support groups, process groups, therapy groups, or Retreats. Groups that meet overnight (“Retreats”) may entail Group Leaders providing sleeping arrangements and accommodations to Users at legally permissible locations. Groups may also require Group Leaders to arrange for food accommodations for Users, provided they are legally permitted to do so at the chosen location. It's essential to understand that while many Groups might be accessed digitally, others occur in physical locations, offering a face-to-face experience between Users and Group Leaders.
Future Services: One of the future services includes messaging. An intrinsic messaging system fosters communication between Group Leaders and Users, enabling them to share resources, address queries, and remain connected outside of scheduled sessions. Another future service includes video calling and calling. The Platform aims to incorporate real-time video and voice calling features, intending to offer more dynamic and interactive sessions between Group Leaders and Users. The Platform also aims to include a review system for Users to leave feedback both public and private on Groups they attend. Users will be reminded to never disclose personal health information.
Group Leaders. ”Group Leader” describes a therapist, psychiatrist, psychologist, coach, social worker, or other licensed or non-licensed professionals who leads a Group. See the Group Leader section below for more details.
Users. ”User” describes any person that creates an account on the Platform or visitor to the Platform. A User may participate in Groups or be a Group Leader.
Cohort. A Cohort refers to a specific subset of a Group. While a Group may encompass the overarching structure, theme, or objective, a Cohort represents a unique iteration or experience within that Group. Each Cohort is characterized by its sessions or meeting times, and when a User joins a Group, they are specifically joining a designated Cohort within that Group. It is pertinent to note that Group Leaders reserve the right to vary content or experiences between different Cohorts under the same Group, which may mean different Cohorts have distinct experiences or structures.
Session. A Session is a singular meeting or gathering of a Cohort. Each Cohort can consist of multiple Sessions, with each Session forming a distinct part of the overall Cohort experience. A Session belongs exclusively to one Cohort, signifying a scheduled period or event where the Cohort members come together, either physically or digitally.
Cohort Reservation. A Cohort Reservation refers to the initial step where a User expresses interest in joining a specific Cohort. This preliminary reservation often requires a consultation with the Group Leader to ensure a mutual fit. After the consultation, Users have the discretion to decide if they wish to join the Group. To avoid charges, Users must notify ZestLife of their decision to opt out within 24 hours of the consultation's commencement and at least 72 hours before the Group's inaugural session. It's imperative to acknowledge that Group Leaders retain the unequivocal right to decline any User's participation in the Cohort during this consultation phase, and such decisions can be made without necessitating any justification.
Cohort Membership. Cohort Membership formalizes a User's association with a specific Cohort. Membership can be solidified during the checkout process if no consultation is mandated. If a consultation is requisite, Cohort Membership is confirmed only post consultation and once the Group Leader endorses the User's Cohort Reservation, signaling the User's official inclusion in the Cohort. Once a User achieves Cohort Membership status, they gain access to all the scheduled sessions, associated materials, and interactions pertinent to that Cohort.
Digital Groups. ZestLife may allow you to access a variety of digital Groups from your computer or mobile device via live stream and/or on-demand audio or video services. To access these digital Groups, you may need to comply with certain technical and hardware requirements. Certain digital Groups may involve your participation through third party software. If you participate in such digital Groups through third party software, then it is your responsibility to comply with the third party software’s terms and conditions.
Group Conduct. All Users of the Platform shall treat others with respect. In the event of conﬂict that arises in a Group, the Group Leader and ZestLife Customer Support staff will have independent discretion on which Users can continue to receive services of a Group where the offending conduct occurred. ZestLife reserves sole discretion on whether a User can continue to receive Services on the Platform.
Right to Remove Users from Groups. A Group Leader reserves the right, at their sole discretion, to remove or exclude any User from a Group session, consultation, or any related activity. Such removal or exclusion can occur for any reason deemed appropriate by the Group Leader, including but not limited to disruptive behavior, inappropriate conduct, or any other action or behavior that the Group Leader believes to be detrimental to the Group or its participants. ZestLife supports this discretion of Group Leaders and will not be held liable for any removal or exclusion of a User from a Group by its Group Leader. Users removed from a Group may or may not be entitled to a refund, as determined by ZestLife's refund policy and the specific circumstances of the removal.
Feedback. Any feedback, comments, or suggestions you provide regarding ZestLife, whether you are a Group Leader, User, or visitor, is entirely voluntary. Upon submission, such feedback, comments, or suggestions become the exclusive property of ZestLife. ZestLife shall have full ownership rights over such feedback, which includes but is not limited to the unrestricted right to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, and disclose the feedback. ZestLife will not be under any obligation to provide compensation or acknowledgment to the person providing the feedback.

As ZestLife continues to evolve and grow, the Platform remains committed to enhancing its services, ensuring an enriching and seamless experience for both Users and Group Leaders. However, ZestLife reserves the right to alter this list of services from time to time, in its sole discretion, as its business model evolves.

Your Continued Responsibilities

When using the Platform, you must remember the importance of confidentiality and respect for the privacy of others. This includes, but is not limited to, not sharing information about other Users or Group Leaders without their consent.

Group Leaders are expected to respect the confidentiality of all interactions on the Platform and uphold professional standards. While the Platform aims to support positive interactions and growth, it is not a substitute for individual therapy or medical advice.

ZestLife does not endorse, support, represent, or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any content posted by Group Leaders or Users on the Platform. While we strive to maintain a safe and respectful environment, the opinions and posts of Users and Group Leaders do not necessarily reflect the values and opinions of ZestLife.

Users and Group Leaders are responsible for their own actions while using the Platform. This includes being respectful to others, understanding the boundaries and limitations of the Platform, and being aware of and adhering to all relevant laws and regulations.

Users should be aware that transferring a Cohort Reservation or Cohort Membership to another individual is strictly prohibited. Once a User commits to a Cohort, they are bound by its terms, conditions, and any affiliated fees. In circumstances where a User decides to withdraw from a Cohort, the stipulations outlined in ZestLife's withdrawal and refund policy will come into play. Transfers, as mentioned, are not permitted under any circumstances.

Protecting the privacy of Users and Group Leaders is paramount to ZestLife. All personal or sensitive information shared within the confines of the Platform, especially within Groups, Cohorts or Sessions, must be treated with the utmost confidentiality. Disclosure of such information outside the Platform is strictly prohibited, regardless of the context. This commitment to privacy extends beyond our Privacy Policy and is foundational to the trust and safety of our community. Users and Group Leaders are expected to uphold this standard at all times and may face consequences for breaches of this trust.

By using the Platform, you agree to hold ZestLife harmless from any claims, damages, or losses resulting from your use of the Platform or any actions taken based on the content or information provided on the Platform.

Fees and Payment

Fees associated with the use of the Platform can be levied upon both Users and Group Leaders. These fees help to compensate ZestLife for its software development, overhead, administrative services, and other corporate costs, inclusive of transaction fees associated with credit card usage.

Group Leaders who offer Groups on the Platform may incur charges for the utilization of the Platform and associated administrative costs. While a segment of a User's payment is set aside for the Group Leader as remuneration for their services, this portion is delineated separately. Notably, ZestLife neither claims a percentage of this remuneration nor splits it. All fees and charges tied to a User's or Group Leader's Account should be settled promptly, aligning with ZestLife's fee schedule, and according to the terms and rates periodically published by ZestLife. These charges, inclusive of any applicable taxes or late fees, can be billed to the credit card registered on the Platform. It is mandatory to ensure that the credit card details associated with one's Account remain valid. Granting ZestLife your credit card details authorizes the company to initiate billing procedures and charge your credit card accordingly.

Proration and Rounding Policy:Payment for group sessions may be prorated based on the number of sessions remaining when a user joins. The prorated amount will be rounded up to the nearest cent. Additionally, if the prorated charge incurs fees from our payment processor which are greater than the service fees we collect on the transaction, we will not allow that transaction on the platform. This rounding policy ensures consistency and fairness in billing practices.
Refund Policy: While ZestLife endeavors to ensure satisfaction through the Platform's offerings, it is essential to note that dissatisfaction with a Cohort or Group does not automatically qualify a User for a refund. All Users, by availing services on the Platform, willingly accept the potential risks, including the possibility of an unsatisfactory experience.
Payment to Group Leaders: Payments directed to Group Leaders for their services are channeled through ZestLife's processing mechanisms. The exact compensation, termed the "Fee," to be remitted to the Group Leader, will be mutually agreed upon in the future. It is important to note that all sales, use, excise taxes, and any other similar charges imposed by any governing entity (be it federal, state, or local) on any amounts payable by the Group Leader fall under the Group Leader's responsibility. This excludes any tax levied on ZestLife's income, revenues, assets, or personnel.
Group Leader Membership Options: There are a number of ways for Group Leaders to participate in hosting Groups, such as through various subscription plans, promotional plans, and non-subscription plans. These plans will consist of different services such as promoting individuals or individual Groups, scheduling, video calling, messaging, group chats, or reminders. These services are subject to additional and differing conditions, prices, policies, and limitations. We reserve the right to modify, terminate, or otherwise amend our offered options and plans at any time and at our sole discretion.
User Membership Options: There are a number of ways for Users to participate in Groups such as through various subscription plans, promotional plans, and non-subscription plans. These options consist of different Groups, workshops, support groups, therapy groups and Retreats. These services are subject to additional and differing conditions, prices, policies and limitations. We reserve the right to modify, terminate, or otherwise amend our offered options and plans at any time and at our sole discretion.
Payment Provisions: ZestLife upholds the right to make amendments to its fee structure, usher in new fees, or revise existing fees, all at its exclusive discretion. Any modifications to the fee structure will be conveyed to the Group Leader, allowing for a specified notice period, as outlined in our Terms of Use or any pertinent agreement. Persisting with the use of the Platform post the introduction of fee modifications inherently signifies the Group Leader's acceptance of the revamped fee structure.
Notification of Disputes: Should a User or Group Leader encounter any discrepancies or disputes concerning a payment, they are required to promptly notify ZestLife in writing within three (3) days of the transaction in question. The notification should detail the nature of the dispute, the amount, and provide any relevant supporting documentation.
ZestLife's Resolution Process: Upon receiving notification of a payment dispute, ZestLife will investigate the matter and strive to resolve it within thirty (30) days from the receipt of the dispute notice. During this period, all affected parties are expected to cooperate fully with ZestLife's investigation.
Final Decision: Following the resolution process, ZestLife will communicate its decision regarding the dispute to the concerned parties. The decision made by ZestLife in relation to any payment dispute shall be final and binding.
Payment Delays: While ZestLife aims to process payments in a timely manner, there may be occasional delays due to reasons beyond ZestLife's control, such as technical issues, third-party payment processor delays, or other unforeseen circumstances. ZestLife shall not be held liable for such delays, but will make every effort to rectify the situation as soon as possible.

Group Leader

A Group Leader may be a therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist, coach, social worker, or other third party. “Coach” is a self-described term. Therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers may operate Groups in their licensed capacity or in their unlicensed capacity. Any Group may run in an unlicensed capacity by any Group Leader including Group Leaders that are Licensed Professionals. Group Leaders are responsible for defining the bounds of their helping relationship, including, but not limited to: confidentiality and other ethical obligations to users.

ZestLife requires all Group Leaders to undergo background checks prior to providing any service on the Platform. ZestLife reserves sole discretion on whether Group Leaders can continue to receive Services on the Platform.

Affiliations: Group Leaders are independent professionals and are not employees, agents, or affiliates of ZestLife. The views, advice, services, or methodologies they offer do not represent, and are not endorsed by, ZestLife. Their interactions, communications, and services are their sole responsibility, and ZestLife bears no liability for the same.

Group Leaders are not only responsible for listing and defining Groups and Cohorts but are also expected to actively lead and facilitate the Groups and Cohorts they post on the Platform. Any delegation of leadership or facilitation roles within a Group or Cohort, without prior notice to and consent of ZestLife and its Users, is strictly prohibited.

It is the responsibility of the Group Leader to make sure they are following all applicable laws and regulations, particularly with regard to the ability to serve clients across state lines in a professional capacity.

Licensed Professionals

Therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers may operate Groups under their professional license; however, they can also opt to run groups in an unlicensed capacity. Group Leaders shall submit proof of valid licensure and proof of liability insurance to the Company before providing any service as a licensed professional on the Platform. Any Group that operates under the Group Leader’s licensed capacity is the sole responsibility of the Group Leader to define the bounds of their helping relationship.

If you are a licensed professional, you represent and warrant, by your continued use of the Platform, that you are in good standing with your professional license to practice therapy, hold active professional medical licenses and all certiﬁcations and required professional continuing education units necessary to practice any services offered to Users, and will notify us promptly if any of this information changes, including updated proof of valid licensure.

If you are a licensed professional holding a therapy Group, you must have coverage of professional liability insurance and maintain that insurance for the entire duration of that therapy Group. If you are a Therapist and your insurance status changes, it is your responsibility to update insurance and postpone therapy Groups until sufficient coverage is made once again.

If you are a licensed professional you represent and warrant that at all times your Group Leader-generated Content will be complete and accurate to your best knowledge.

Licensed Mental Health Professionals and Professional Standards

If you choose to engage with a Group Leader who is a licensed mental health professional practicing under their license, you can reasonably expect them to adhere to the ethical, professional, and legally binding standards of their jurisdiction and licensing body. This may include requirements for confidentiality, mandated reporting, professional conduct, and other legally imposed duties.

However, it is solely the responsibility of you and the licensed mental health professional to establish the specific bounds and nature of your therapeutic or professional relationship. You should feel empowered to share as much or as little personal information as you deem appropriate within these agreed-upon parameters. ZestLife does not define the scope of your professional relationship with a licensed provider, nor does it monitor the professional standards to which the licensed professional is bound.

By engaging with a licensed mental health professional through the Platform, you acknowledge that ZestLife is not providing clinical services or defining professional standards; it merely facilitates the connection. Any therapeutic, clinical, or professional agreements, as well as the depth and breadth of shared information, are determined solely between you and the licensed professional.

Verification of Credentials and Insurance

Credential Verification: ZestLife is committed to maintaining a high standard of professionalism and credibility among all Group Leaders on our Platform. To this end, we require all Group Leaders to provide evidence of their qualifications, which may include, but are not limited to, professional licenses, certifications, membership in professional societies, or diplomas. By agreeing to these Terms of Use, Group Leaders consent to ZestLife verifying the authenticity of these credentials with the relevant issuing bodies or organizations. This verification process helps ensure that all Group Leaders meet the necessary qualifications and standards to offer their services through our Platform.
Insurance Verification: For those Group Leaders who are licensed professionals, it is mandatory to submit proof of valid professional liability insurance before providing any service on the Platform. ZestLife reserves the right to verify the validity and adequacy of such insurance with the relevant insurance providers. This is to ensure that all licensed professionals maintain appropriate coverage in alignment with the services offered and the potential risks involved.
Ongoing Compliance: Group Leaders are required to keep their credentials and insurance information up to date. Should there be any changes to their licensure status, insurance coverage, or any other relevant qualifications, Group Leaders are obligated to promptly update this information on the Platform. Failure to maintain accurate and current information may result in suspension or termination of the Group Leader's ability to offer services through ZestLife.
Representations and Warranties: By using the Platform, Group Leaders represent and warrant that they are in good standing with their respective professional licensing bodies and insurance providers. They also affirm that all content they generate and share on the Platform is complete, accurate, and in compliance with applicable laws and ethical standards of their profession.
Responsibility and Liability: While ZestLife undertakes measures to verify credentials and insurance, Group Leaders remain solely responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide and for maintaining compliance with all relevant laws, regulations, and professional standards. ZestLife disclaims any liability for inaccuracies or misrepresentations made by Group Leaders regarding their qualifications or insurance status.

The Platform and Services are offered for informational, educational, scheduling, video calling, messaging, and payment processing purposes only, and are not intended to constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment provided to Users. ZestLife does not offer or give therapy or medical advice. We do not provide therapy, medical, or diagnostic services.

ZestLife solely offers a platform or marketplace for Group Leaders and Users to meet online and for Users to decide if they would like to engage in services offered by Group Leaders. ZestLife does not hire Group Leaders. ZestLife assumes no responsibility for any act or omission of any Group Leader. ZestLife’s responsibilities are limited to facilitating the availability of the Platform Group Leaders’ services.

Group Leaders are solely responsible for their interactions with you and any and all claims, injuries, illnesses, damages, liabilities, and costs (collectively, “Claims”) suffered by you as a result of your interactions with or visit to any such Group Leader. You agree not to impose or attempt to impose liability on, or seek any legal remedy from, ZestLife with respect to any and all such Claims. ZestLife cannot and does not control the Content contained in any proﬁle or Group detail page.

Except as expressly provided in these Terms, no part of the Platform and no Content may be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, publicly displayed, encoded, translated, transmitted, or distributed in any way, including through “mirroring,” to any other computer, server, website or other medium for publication or distribution or for any commercial enterprise, without ZestLife’s express prior written consent.

“User-generated Content” (“UGC”) includes any text, documents, photos, videos, audio files, images, graphics, code, software, data, feedback, suggestions, comments, or other materials that you upload to, store on, transmit through, or otherwise make available via the Platform. UGC includes, but is not limited to, direct messages, 1:1 messages, Announcements, Message Board posts, attachments, documents, and any other submissions made by Users or Group Leaders.

ZestLife does not claim ownership of your UGC. Your content remains yours, and you are solely responsible for it.

ZestLife is not responsible for the accuracy, completeness, usefulness, or lawfulness of any UGC.

Content Standards

All UGC must comply with these Terms and applicable policies. You shall not submit, upload, or distribute any UGC that:

Is unlawful, harassing, defamatory, obscene, hateful, or otherwise objectionable;
Infringes upon any third party’s intellectual property rights (e.g., copyright, trademark, trade secret) or other proprietary rights;
Contains malicious code, viruses, or other destructive elements;
Violates any applicable law, regulation, or professional standard.

License Grant to ZestLife

By posting or transmitting UGC on the Platform, you grant ZestLife a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, publish, publicly display, and create derivative works from your UGC for any lawful purpose, including but not limited to marketing, promotion, operations, quality assurance, and archival purposes. This license persists even if you cease using the Platform or delete your account.

However, nothing in this license grant shall be construed to allow ZestLife to use Protected Health Information (PHI), as defined by applicable law (including HIPAA), in a manner that violates those laws or related regulations. To the extent that any UGC you provide includes PHI, ZestLife's use and disclosure of that PHI shall be governed by applicable privacy laws, Business Associate Agreements (if any), and the provisions of our Privacy Policy specifically addressing PHI.

ZestLife’s Right to Monitor and Remove Content

ZestLife does not routinely monitor private messages or Message Boards. However, you acknowledge and agree that ZestLife may access, review, or remove UGC under any of the following circumstances:

In response to user-initiated support requests or technical issues;
To investigate potential violations of these Terms, including harassment, abuse, or unlawful activity;
To comply with legal obligations, court orders, or requests from law enforcement;
To protect the security, integrity, and reputation of the Platform, its Users, and third parties.

ZestLife may remove, block, or restrict access to any GLGC at its sole discretion, without prior notice, if such content violates these Terms or poses any security, privacy, legal, or reputational risk. GLGC that is deemed harmful, threatening, or likely to jeopardize the safety or well-being of others may be removed immediately. Any enforcement actions ZestLife takes are final and binding, and you agree to hold ZestLife harmless for any consequences resulting from the removal or modification of your GLGC.

User Responsibility and Risk

You are solely responsible for the UGC you choose to share. While certain features (such as direct messaging with licensed professionals) may encourage sharing of sensitive information, you do so at your own risk. ZestLife does not guarantee the confidentiality or security of UGC and is not liable for unauthorized access or misuse by other Users, Group Leaders, or third parties.

If you communicate with a licensed mental health professional within a therapeutic relationship, that professional may be obligated to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including HIPAA and other confidentiality standards. However, ZestLife makes no guarantee regarding the professional’s compliance or the level of confidentiality they provide. You assume all risks associated with the information you choose to share.

No Expectation of Privacy

You understand and agree that:

No technology is fully secure, and communications may be intercepted or accessed by unauthorized parties.
Messages (including 1:1 messages), Announcements, and Message Board posts may be stored and accessed by ZestLife for support, compliance, moderation, legal, or operational purposes.
Message Board content is visible to other members of the same Group or Cohort, and potentially to future members if retained.
Although ZestLife may take measures to comply with HIPAA or other applicable standards when working with licensed professionals and Protected Health Information (PHI), it makes no additional warranties about the confidentiality of UGC.
ZestLife reserves the right to modify, adapt, or remove any UGC for any reason, at any time, without prior notice.

For details on how we handle personal information, including PHI and HIPAA considerations, please review our Privacy Policy.

Group Leader-Generated Content

Group Leader-generated Content (“GLGC”) refers to all content created by Group Leaders and shared through the Platform. This includes, but is not limited to, text, documents, Announcements, posts on Message Boards, direct messages, 1:1 messages, attachments, images, videos, audio files, curriculum materials, service descriptions, and any other submissions made by a Group Leader. GLGC is a subset of User-Generated Content (“UGC”) and is therefore subject to all terms and conditions governing UGC, as well as the additional terms outlined below.

Applicability of User-Generated Content Terms

All provisions of the User-Generated Content section apply equally to GLGC. This means that any content standards, license grants, rights of removal, monitoring, and disclaimers specified for UGC also apply to GLGC. Group Leaders acknowledge and agree that their Announcements, messages, attachments, documents, and any other contributions to the Platform are considered GLGC and are therefore governed by the same rules, including restrictions on unlawful, infringing, or otherwise prohibited material.

No ZestLife Endorsement of Group Leader-Generated Content

You acknowledge that ZestLife does not represent or control Users, including those interacting with you as a Group Leader. ZestLife does not endorse, verify, or guarantee the accuracy, quality, or lawfulness of GLGC. The views, opinions, advice, services, or methodologies you provide as a Group Leader do not reflect those of ZestLife. ZestLife shall not be liable for any claims arising from User reliance on your GLGC, including Announcements, advice, or other communications you provide.

Responsibilities of Group Leaders

As a Group Leader, you are solely responsible for ensuring that your GLGC complies with all applicable laws, regulations, professional standards, and these Terms. This includes maintaining any necessary licensure, following ethical and confidentiality standards (including HIPAA, if applicable), and respecting third-party intellectual property and privacy rights. If you post or transmit GLGC that contains Protected Health Information (PHI) or other sensitive data, you are responsible for handling such information in accordance with applicable laws and professional standards. ZestLife’s general license to use UGC does not override any legal obligations you may have to protect PHI or other sensitive user data.

ZestLife’s Rights Regarding Group Leader-Generated Content

ZestLife may, at its sole discretion and without obligation, access, review, moderate, remove, or modify GLGC, including but not limited to Announcements, direct messages, or attachments you share. ZestLife may do so:

In response to user inquiries, support requests, or technical issues;
To investigate potential violations of these Terms or unlawful activity;
To comply with legal obligations, court orders, or law enforcement requests;
To protect the security, integrity, and reputation of the Platform, its Users, and third parties.

ZestLife is not responsible for any delay or failure to remove GLGC. Any enforcement actions ZestLife takes are final and binding, and you agree to hold ZestLife harmless for any consequences resulting from the removal or modification of your GLGC.

ZestLife’s Right to Contact Group Leaders

ZestLife reserves the right to contact you through any provided communication methods (e.g., email, phone, mail, text) to manage your account, verify your credentials, update your profile, or for other operational and support purposes. You agree to respond promptly to any reasonable requests and understand that failing to do so may result in enforcement actions as permitted by these Terms.

No Implied Sponsorship or Endorsement

You agree not to falsely suggest or state that your GLGC is sponsored, endorsed, or verified by ZestLife. Any such implication or representation is strictly prohibited.

Accuracy and Currency of Group Leader Information

GLGC is often self-reported and may include information about your qualifications, services, or offerings. You are responsible for ensuring that all such information is accurate, current, and complete. While ZestLife may, but is not obligated to, verify your credentials or the accuracy of your posted information, you remain solely responsible for correcting outdated, incomplete, or misleading information. ZestLife disclaims any liability for the currency or validity of GLGC, and you agree to indemnify and hold ZestLife harmless for any claims arising from inaccuracies in your posted information.

ZestLife may, at its sole discretion, update your profile with information obtained from third-party sources to ensure accuracy and completeness. ZestLife is under no obligation to notify you of such updates. You are solely responsible for reviewing your profile regularly and for verifying the accuracy of this information. Any errors or inaccuracies must be promptly corrected by you. Failure to do so may result in the removal of content or other enforcement actions as permitted by these Terms.

No Endorsement of Group Leader Services

ZestLife does not recommend or endorse any particular Group Leader, advice, materials, or services. Users who rely on your GLGC do so solely at their own risk. It is the User’s responsibility to evaluate the suitability, quality, and appropriateness of any services or content you provide.

No Control or Liability for Your Services

You acknowledge and agree that ZestLife is not a party to, nor does it supervise, direct, or control any interactions, sessions, or services you provide to Users. Any services or advice you offer is solely your responsibility, and ZestLife shall not be liable for any claims arising from your professional conduct or the outcome of such services.

Publication of Group Leader Services and Reviews

ZestLife reserves the right to publish information about your services and any recommendations, reviews, or feedback submitted by Users. Such information may be displayed publicly on the Platform. We are not responsible for any delay or failure to remove feedback or reviews that you may find objectionable, and we make no guarantees regarding the accuracy or fairness of such user-generated opinions.

ZestLife may request that you replace or modify any GLGC at any time, for any reason, and without providing justification. Your prompt compliance with such requests is expected. Failure to comply may result in removal of the content, suspension of your account, or other enforcement actions.

No Guarantee of a Safe, Supportive Environment

ZestLife strives to maintain a respectful and supportive environment, but we cannot guarantee that all interactions, feedback, or reviews will meet your expectations. You agree to engage in the Platform with awareness of these risks and to address any issues through the appropriate channels, such as reporting to ZestLife support.

Intellectual Property

User-generated and Group Leader-generated Content License Grant: By uploading, storing, or transmitting any User-generated or Group Leader-generated Content on the Platform, you hereby grant ZestLife a perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, reproduce, distribute, display, and adapt such content for promotional, advertising, and marketing purposes. This license remains effective unless and until the content is removed or deleted by you or ZestLife, but its persistence is not affected by your cessation of use of the Platform.
Ownership of ZestLife Intellectual Property: All intellectual property rights in and to the Platform, its design, content, software, interfaces, and any materials provided or made available by ZestLife, including, but not limited to, trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets, graphical elements, and any other related rights (collectively, the “Intellectual Property”), remain the exclusive property of ZestLife. You are not permitted to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, or exploit ZestLife's Intellectual Property in any manner other than as expressly authorized by these Terms or with ZestLife's prior written consent.
License to Group Leader's Content: If Group Leaders or Users upload, share, or contribute content to the platform, they hereby grant ZestLife a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, reproduce, display, distribute, and adapt such content for any purpose, including, without limitation, promotional and marketing purposes. The granting of this license does not transfer ownership of the content from the Group Leader or User to ZestLife. This license persists even if the Group Leader or User ceases to use the platform or terminates their relationship with ZestLife.
Termination of Content: While ZestLife reserves the right to remove or alter content on its platform at its discretion, any termination or removal of content does not nullify the licenses previously granted to ZestLife concerning the use of the content.

Users and Group Leaders should always ensure they possess the necessary rights to any content they upload or share on the Platform and that such sharing does not infringe on the rights of third parties.

Marketing and Promotion

Group Leaders acknowledge that one of the primary benefits and reasons for posting their services on ZestLife is to leverage the platform's marketing and promotional capabilities to reach a wider audience and enhance their visibility.

Use of Group Leader Content for Marketing: By posting content, details, articles, blogs, quotes, or any other information about their groups on ZestLife, Group Leaders grant ZestLife permission to use, reproduce, distribute, and display such content for marketing purposes. This includes, but is not limited to, promotion on social media platforms, advertisements, email campaigns, and other marketing avenues that ZestLife deems appropriate.
Media Content Rights: Should a User, Group Leader, or another participant engage in interviews, blog or article writing, or other media creation with ZestLife, the content produced, in any format (video, audio, picture, written, etc.), becomes ZestLife's exclusive property. This ownership extends to all intellectual property rights in the media content. ZestLife can freely use, modify, and distribute this content for any purpose, especially marketing. By participating, individuals also give ZestLife permission to use their name, image, voice, or other recognizable features without any additional approvals or compensation.
Quotes: If ZestLife receives or extracts quotes from Group Leaders, Users, or other participants, whether from feedback, interviews, or any interactions, ZestLife has the right to use these quotes for marketing and promotional purposes, associating them with the individual's name and/or image unless explicitly requested otherwise.
Waiver and Release: Participants in such media content creation waive any rights to review or receive compensation for the finished product and release ZestLife from any claims related to the content's use.
Dual-Purpose Marketing: Group Leaders understand and agree that ZestLife's marketing initiatives, while highlighting their groups, also serve to amplify ZestLife's own visibility and reputation.
Opting Out: Group Leaders or Users wishing to exclude themselves from certain marketing channels must notify ZestLife in writing. While ZestLife will make efforts to respect these wishes, ongoing or pre-planned marketing activities might not be immediately halted.

The Platform may contain links to third party websites or resources. You acknowledge and agree that ZestLife is not responsible or liable for (1) the availability or accuracy of such websites or resources, or (2) the content, products, or services on or available from such websites or resources. Links to such websites or resources do not imply any endorsement by ZestLife of such websites or resources or the content, products, or services available from such websites or resources. You acknowledge your sole responsibility for, and assume all risk arising from, your use of any such websites or resources or the content, products or services on or available from such websites or resources.
