Terms of Service

Thank you for choosing to use our services.

The Uptown Network Service

We agree to provide you with the Uptown Network Service. The Service includes all of the Uptown Network products, features, applications, services, technologies, and software that we provide to advance Uptown Network's mission. The Service is made up of the following aspects (the Service):

  • People and restaurants are different. We want to strengthen your relationships through shared experiences you actually care about. So, we build systems that try to understand who and what you and others care about, and use that information to help you create, find, join, and share in experiences that matter to you. Part of that is highlighting content, features, offers, and accounts you might be interested in, and offering ways for you to experience Uptown Network, based on things you and others do on and off the Uptown Network.
  • Fostering a positive, inclusive, and safe environment.
  • We develop and use tools and offer resources to our network members that help to make their experiences positive and inclusive, including when we think they might need help. We also have teams and systems that work to combat abuse and violations of our Terms and policies, as well as harmful and deceptive behavior. We use all the information we have, including your information, to try to keep our platform secure. We also may share information about misuse or harmful content with law enforcement.
  • Developing and using technologies that help us consistently serve our growing network.
  • Organizing and analyzing information for our growing network is central to our Service. A big part of our Service is creating and using cutting-edge technologies that help us personalize, protect, and improve our Service on an incredibly large scale for a broad global network. Technologies like artificial intelligence and machine learning give us the power to apply complex processes across our Service. Automated technologies also help us ensure the functionality and integrity of our Service.
  • Providing consistent and seamless experiences across other Uptown Network Products.
  • This product is part of Uptown Network, which shares technology, systems, insights, and information-including the information we have about you in order to provide services that are better, safer, and more secure. We also provide ways to interact across Uptown Network Products that you use, and designed systems to achieve a seamless and consistent experience across the Uptown Network.
  • Ensuring a stable global infrastructure for our Service.
  • To provide our global Service, we must store and transfer data across our systems around the world, including outside of your country of residence.
  • Connecting you with brands, products, and services in ways you care about.
  • We use data from Uptown Network, as well as from third-party partners, to show you ads, offers, and other sponsored content that we believe will be meaningful to you. And we try to make that content as relevant as all your other experiences on Uptown Network.
  • Research and innovation.
  • We use the information we have to study our Service and collaborate with others on research to make our Services better and contribute to the well-being of our network.

Purchases


If you wish to purchase any product or service made available through the Service (“Purchase”), you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to your Purchase including, without limitation, your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card, your billing address, and your shipping information.

You represent and warrant that: (i) you have the legal right to use any credit card(s) or other payment method(s) in connection with any Purchase; and that (ii) the information you supply to us is true, correct and complete. By submitting such information, you grant us the right to provide the information to third parties for purposes of facilitating the completion of Purchases.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order at any time for certain reasons including but not limited to: product or service availability, errors in the description or price of the product or service, error in your order or other reasons.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order if fraud or an unauthorized or illegal transaction is suspected.

Risk of Loss

The risk of loss and title for Gift Cards pass to the purchaser upon our electronic transmission of the Gift Card to the purchaser or designated recipient, or our delivery to the carrier whichever is applicable. Gift Cards must be obtained through Uptown Network or an authorized third party, and you are responsible for safeguarding your Uptown Network Gift Card from unauthorized use. We are not responsible if any gift card is lost stolen or destroyed or if your Gift Card is used without your permission. There are a variety of Gift Card scams that request payment by gift card. Uptown Network is not responsible for, and assumes no liability to you for any unlawful conduct or fraud by any third party associated with any Gift Card.

Availability, Errors and Inaccuracies


We are constantly updating our offerings of products and services on the Service. The products or services available on our Service may be mispriced, described inaccurately, or unavailable, and we may experience delays in updating information on the Service and in our advertising on other web sites.

We cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, availability, and services. We reserve the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time without prior notice.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Uptown Network software and services are provided “as is” and “as available”, with all faults and without warranty of any kind, and Uptown Network and Uptown Network’s licensors (collectively referred to as “Uptown Network”) hereby disclaim all warranties and conditions with respect to the Uptown Network software and services, either express, implied or statutory, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties and/or conditions of merchantability, of satisfactory quality, of fitness for a particular purpose, of accuracy, of quiet enjoyment, and non-infringement of third party rights.

No oral or written information or advice given by Uptown Network or an Uptown Network authorized representative shall create a warranty. Should the Uptown Network software or services prove defective, you assume the entire cost of all necessary servicing, repair or correction. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitations on applicable statutory rights of a consumer, so the above exclusion and limitations may not apply to you.

Limitation of liability. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, in no event shall Uptown Network be liable for personal injury, or any incidental, special, indirect or consequential damages whatsoever, including, without limitation, damages for loss of profits, loss of data or information, business interruption or any other commercial damages or losses, arising out of or related to your use or inability to use the Uptown Network software and services or any third party software or applications in conjunction with the Uptown Network Software, however caused, regardless of the theory of liability (contract, tort or otherwise) and even if Uptown Network has been advised of the possibility of such damages, some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of liability for personal injury, or of incidental or consequential damages, so this limitation may not apply to you. In no event shall Uptown Network’s total liability to you for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the amount of fifty dollars ($50.00). The foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated remedy fails of its essential purpose.

Subscriptions


Some parts of the Service are billed on a subscription basis (“Subscription(s)”). You will be billed in advance on a recurring and periodic basis (“Billing Cycle”). Billing cycles are set either on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the type of subscription plan you select when purchasing a Subscription.

At the end of each Billing Cycle, your Subscription will automatically renew under the exact same conditions unless you cancel it or Uptown Network cancels it. You may cancel your Subscription renewal either through your online account management page or by contacting Uptown Network customer support team.

A valid payment method, including credit card, is required to process the payment for your Subscription. You shall provide Uptown Network with accurate and complete billing information including full name, address, state, zip code, telephone number, and a valid payment method information. By submitting such payment information, you automatically authorize Uptown Network to charge all Subscription fees incurred through your account to any such payment instruments.

Should automatic billing fail to occur for any reason, Uptown Network will issue an electronic invoice indicating that you must proceed manually, within a certain deadline date, with the full payment corresponding to the billing period as indicated on the invoice.

Free Trial


Uptown Network may, at its sole discretion, offer a Subscription with a free trial for a limited period of time (“Free Trial”).

You may be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for the Free Trial.

If you do enter your billing information when signing up for the Free Trial, you will not be charged by Uptown Network until the Free Trial has expired. On the last day of the Free Trial period, unless you cancelled your Subscription, you will be automatically charged the applicable Subscription fees for the type of Subscription you have selected.

At any time and without notice, Uptown Network reserves the right to (i) modify the terms and conditions of the Free Trial offer, or (ii) cancel such Free Trial offer.

Fee Changes


Uptown Network, in its sole discretion and at any time, may modify the Subscription fees for the Subscriptions. Any Subscription fee change will become effective at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle.

Uptown Network will provide you with a reasonable prior notice of any change in Subscription fees to give you an opportunity to terminate your Subscription before such change becomes effective.

Your continued use of the Service after the Subscription fee change comes into effect constitutes your agreement to pay the modified Subscription fee amount.

Chargeback / Refund Policy


Uptown Network will not, except when required by law, issue cash refunds for early contract cancellation.

If you have a question about charges made to your account, please contact us. If the charges were made in error, we will credit your account or credit card account for the appropriate amount.

Any customer who disputes a credit card payment that is found to be valid will be banned from use of the Service. Any past due fees and costs will be sent to collections. If our collection efforts fail, unpaid debts will be reported to all available credit reporting agencies.

Our Service allows you to post, link, store, share and otherwise make available certain information, text, graphics, videos, or other material (“Content”). You are responsible for the Content that you post to the Service, including its legality, reliability, and appropriateness.

By posting Content to the Service, you grant us the right and license to use, modify, perform, display, reproduce, and distribute such Content on and through the Service for marketing or promotional purposes. You retain any and all of your rights to any Content you submit, post or display on or through the Service and you are responsible for protecting those rights.

You represent and warrant that: (i) the Content is yours (you own it) or you have the right to use it and grant us the rights and license as provided in these Terms, and (ii) the posting of your Content on or through the Service does not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights or any other rights of any person.

We may, but have no obligation to, remove accounts and content containing what we determine as unlawful, offensive, threatening, defamatory, obscene or otherwise objectionable material. We will remove content that violates any party’s intellectual property or these Terms of Service. An account terminated by Uptown Network will not be backed-up for any reason and will be immediately deleted from our servers.
