VIP Society Terms & Conditions 

Welcome to Sass Magazine’s VIP Society for female entrepreneurs, owned and operated by Sass Studios, LLC (“SASS”, “us”, “our”, and “we”). We hate legal mumbo jumbo just as much as the next person, so we’ve tried to make these terms super easy and straight-forward. Basically this is a way to protect your business and our business and to ensure a secure, safe and confidential environment and experience for all VIP Society members. 

These Terms of Use (“Agreement”) set forth the legally binding terms for your membership in the Sass VIP Society, including the use of our business resources, event attendance, business coaching calls, and mastermind zoom calls. By agreeing to join as a member, you are accepting this Agreement and you represent and warrant that you have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement.

Privacy Policy

SASS respects the privacy of its users. Please refer to our general Privacy Policy which explains how we collect, use, and disclose information that pertains to your privacy. By joining the Sass VIP Society, you signify your agreement to this Privacy Policy.

Membership

All Sass VIP Society members will be asked to provide certain information about yourself and your business. You represent and warrant that: (a) all required information you submit and share is truthful and accurate to the best of your knowledge; (b) you are at least 18 years old; and (c) have the authority to act on behalf of your business.

Substitution or Sharing Not Allowed. Sass VIP Society membership is personal to you. Members cannot transfer or gift events or memberships to third parties, including other members. Attendance at a Sass Magazine event or mastermind zoom call cannot be substituted by another person, whether from the same organization or not. Permanent transfer of membership to a different person is not allowed without our approval in writing. 

Termination or Pause of Membership. Each Sass VIP Society session is a six month commitment. By entering into this agreement, you pledge to be a paying member for the entire duration of your assigned session. Membership cannot be paused or terminated. 

However, in extenuating circumstances, SASS has the right to terminate your membership if any of the following occur:

  • Company files for bankruptcy or ceases to do business.
  • Members behavior is deemed to be a hazard, untruthful and/or liability to other members, partners or Sass Studios, LLC.

Recurring Billing and Automatic Payments

By accepting your VIP Society membership, you authorize us to charge you for your entire 6-month membership period (Session 1: January -June; Session 2: July-December) by either paying for your membership in it’s entirety or via a recurring monthly membership fee. If you choose to renew your VIP membership, please be aware that monthly rates may change from session to session. 

VIP Society members commit to a 6-month billing cycle and are responsible for notifying us of any changes in your payment details. All membership subscriptions last for a 6 month time period. Your account will be automatically charged on the first of every calendar month (or closest business day) during your session. Members can pay by credit card or ACH transfer. Payment details are collected by SASS through our secure financial data collection mechanism.

Failure by the VIP member to use any of the services available through the service provided by SASS does not relieve the member of their payment obligations under these Terms. 

Code of Ethics & Confidentiality

During our mastermind calls, business coaching calls and/or events, we encourage our VIP Society members to discuss their businesses openly and honestly. We ask all VIP Society members that any and all conversations, ideas, resources and documents shared among members will remain strictly private and will not be shared with anyone else, including spouses, co-workers, etc. VIP Society members may be asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement (also known as an “NDA” or a confidentiality agreement) if needed and/or requested by other members of the group.

Disclaimer – Your Business’ Individual Results Will Vary

Every business is different, employing different strategic approaches and organizational structures, and offering different products and services. 

While our goal is to help you grow your business, SASS does not promise, guarantee, or warrant your business’ success, income, or sales. You understand and acknowledge that SASS does not guarantee sales leads or referrals to you or your business. VIP Society members will receive access to our business resource library, business coaching calls, peer mastermind sessions and suggestions for software and tools to help manage and run your business. However, we do not guarantee your business’ success and the software and tools we provide may or may not be applicable to your specific business.

Further, we do not make earnings claims, efforts claims, return on investment claims, or claims that our software, tools, or other offerings will make your business any specific amount of money, and it is possible that you will not earn your investment back. We do not sell a business opportunity, “get rich quick” program, guaranteed system, franchise system, or a business in a box. 

Using our business tools, resources, peer support and business coaching calls will take time and effort and may be applicable in some situations but not others. Also, we do not offer any tax, accounting, financial, or legal advice. You should consult your business’ accountant, attorney, or financial advisor for advice on these topics.

VIP Society Member Benefits Usage

Events

Your VIP Society membership includes a free ticket to all of our GNO events, as well as discounted tickets to all other Sass sponsored events. Since we need to supply venues with a head count for most events, we do ask that all members register for every event in advance. Only ONE (1) free GNO ticket and/or other event discount may be applied to individual Sass VIP Society members. Free tickets and event discounts are not transferable to other parties and are intended for the use of members only. Under no circumstances can any discounts be combined. 

Unless otherwise stated, attendees must be 18 years of age to attend any SASS sponsored event.

Our events may be held—in whole or in part—in a public space. We do not prohibit participants, exhibitors, sponsors, news organizations, and other companies from photographing or video- or audio-taping some event activities. Any prohibitions from private spaces where events are held, however, must be respected. We reserve the right to use images, videos, and audio records taken during our events, including zoom calls, with your photograph and/or likeness in future marketing materials.
