IGI or its designated agents may remove or alter any user-created content at any time for any reason. Message boards, chats, and other public forums are intended to serve as discussion centers for users and subscribers. Information and content posted within these public forums may be provided by IGI staff, IGI’s outside contributors, or by users not connected with IGI, some of whom may employ anonymous usernames. IGI expressly disclaims all responsibility and endorsement and makes no representation as to the validity of any opinion, advice, information, or statement made or displayed in these forums by third parties, nor is IGI responsible for any errors or omissions in such postings, or for hyperlinks embedded in any messages. Under no circumstances will IGI, our affiliates, suppliers, or agents be liable for any loss or damage caused by your reliance on information obtained through these forums. The opinions expressed in these forums are solely the opinions of the participants, and do not reflect the views of IGI or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

IGI has no obligation whatsoever to monitor any of the content or postings on the message boards, chat rooms, or other public forums on the Sites. However, you acknowledge and agree that IGI has the absolute right to monitor the same at IGI’s sole discretion. In addition, IGI reserves the right to alter, edit, refuse to post or remove any postings or content, in whole or in part, for any reason and to disclose such materials and the circumstances surrounding their transmission to any third party to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request and to protect ourselves, our clients, sponsors, users and visitors.

What IGI Provides

IGI provides services for streaming and downloading golf instruction content, book and content sales, virtual coaching, and instructional in-person golf schools at various locations across the globe. Other goods and services may be developed from time to time.

If you sign up to become a subscription member of a product or service, or if you download IGI’s app and/or sign up for an account via IGI’s website or app, including all associated features and functionalities, websites and user interfaces, IGI well as all content and software applications related to our services (collectively referred to as “Service”), or if you are accessing any videos or other content or material made available through the Service (the “Content”), you are entering into a binding contract with IGI and agree to be legally bound by these terms of use.

Registration

To access certain features of the Site, IGI may ask you to provide certain demographic information, including your gender, year of birth, zip code, and country. In addition, if you elect to sign up for a particular feature of the Site, such as chat rooms, web logs, or bulletin boards, you may also be asked to register with IGI on the form provided, and such registration may require you to provide personally identifiable information such as your name and email address. You agree to provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Site’s registration form. Suppose IGI has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete. In that case, IGI has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Site (or any portion thereof). IGI’s use of any personally identifiable information you provide to IGI as part of the registration process is governed by the terms of IGI’s Privacy Policy.

Passwords

To use certain features of the Site, you will need a username and password, which you will receive through the Site’s registration process. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the password and account. You are responsible for all activities (whether by you or by others) that occur under your password or account. You agree to notify IGI immediately of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and to ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. IGI cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your password or account information.

Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances, including but not limited to negligence, shall IGI, our subsidiary and parent companies, or affiliates be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages resulting from the use of or the inability to use the site, including IGI messaging systems, blogs, user comments, books, emails, products, or services, or third-party materials, products, or services made available through the site or by IGI in any manner, even if IGI has been advised in advance of the possibility of such damages. (Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of specific categories of damages, the above limitation may not apply to you. In such states, IGI’s liability and the liability of IGI subsidiary and parent companies or affiliates is limited to the fullest extent permitted by such state law.) You specifically acknowledge and agree that IGI is not liable for any defamatory, offensive, or illegal conduct of any user. If you are dissatisfied with the site, any materials, products, or services on the site, or with any of the site’s terms and conditions, your sole and exclusive remedy is to cease using the site and the associated products, services, and/or materials. This site is continuously under development, and IGI makes no warranty of any kind, implied or expressed, regarding its accuracy, completeness, or appropriateness for any purpose. 

Termination

IGI may cancel or terminate your right to use the Site or any part of the Site at any time without notice. In the event of cancellation or termination, you are no longer authorized to access the part of the Site affected by such cancellation or termination. The restrictions imposed on you concerning material downloaded from the Site, and the disclaimers and limitations of liabilities outlined in these Terms of Service, shall survive.

Privacy and Personal Information

Your privacy and personal information are essential to IGI. Any personal information that you provide to IGI will be dealt with in line with IGI’s Privacy Policy, which explains what personal information IGI collects from you, how and why IGI collects, stores, uses and shares such information, your rights concerning your personal information and how to contact IGI and supervisory authorities if you have a query or complaint about the use of your personal information.

Services and Products

Below, IGI sets out how a legally binding contract between you and IGI is made.

• You create an account by providing your details via IGI’s website or app. Please read and check your details carefully. If you need to correct any errors, you can do so before submitting it to IGI.
• IGI’s website is free to use, and IGI’s app is free to download and use, when available. Some Content and parts of the Service are available free of charge to all users (“Free Service”).
• Some of the Content and parts of the Service are only available if you have paid for a subscription (“Paid Subscription”) or a one-off plan (“Coaching Plan”).
• When creating an account, you will be automatically signed up to a Free Trial (see clause 6 below) of a Paid Subscription. Once you have signed up, you can bypass this Free Trial if you wish.
• Your application to sign up constitutes an offer by you to subscribe to the Service by way of a Paid Subscription or Coaching Plan. IGI will confirm acceptance of your offer by sending you an email that confirms your application has been accepted (“Confirmation Email”). A legally binding contract will be made between IGI upon your receipt of the Confirmation Email.

Virtual Coaching Plans

If you purchase a Virtual Coaching Plan, you will have access to selected content and services for the chosen period, which will be delivered over a set period. For example, if you choose the 4-week coaching plan, you will have access to the 4-week coaching plan videos for the full 4 weeks.

If you have waived your right to cancel or have started streaming/downloading the content within the cancellation period (see clause 8), you will not be able to cancel the Plan.

Paid Video Golf Instruction Subscriptions

The Paid Video Golf Instruction Subscription options are available on IGI’s website, with IGI explaining which Paid Subscription options are available to you when you create an account.

With a Paid Video Golf Instruction Subscription, you will have access to all of the IGI video golf instruction library contents for the duration of your subscription.

IGI reserves the right to modify, terminate, or otherwise amend IGI’s offered subscription plans and promotional offerings at any time under these Terms.

IGI may also offer special promotional plans, memberships, or services, including offerings of third-party products and services in conjunction with or through the Service.

Suppose you have signed up for a Paid Video Golf Instruction Subscription. In that case, you will be charged for the Service regularly until cancellation by you (see Clause 9) after any Free Trial period is finished (if applicable). The payment dates will depend on the type of subscription you sign up for (see subscription options).

By signing up for a Paid Video Golf Instruction Subscription (including a Free Trial of a Paid Subscription), you acknowledge that after any Free Trial is up, your subscription will result in a recurring payment by you indefinitely until you cancel the subscription. You accept all responsibility for the recurring charges before cancellation by you.

VIP Monthly Membership Minimum Term

If you sign up for our Annual Membership, you enter into a 12-month minimum commitment after the 14-day cooling-off period. Suppose you choose to cancel before the end of the 12-month term. In that case, you will be refunded the balance of your paid video subscription, determined by your date of initial subscription, minus reasonable business expenses to facilitate your annual membership, such as credit card processing and handling fees, shipping and postage or any promotional items associated with your annual membership, as well as other expenses incurred by IGI. 

Free Trials

When you sign up for a Paid Video Subscription, you have an automatic 7-day free trial. You can cancel your subscription within the Free Trial period, and you will not be charged for the Service.

IGI, or third parties, may offer Free Trials of Paid Subscriptions of differing periods (“Free Trial”).

IGI may withdraw a Trial at any time without prior notice and without any liability, subject to your statutory rights.

For some Trials, IGI will require you to provide your payment details to start the Trial. By providing such information, you agree that we may automatically begin charging you for the Paid Subscription on the first day following the end of the Trial on a recurring monthly basis or another interval that IGI discloses to you in advance. If you do not want to be charged at the end of the trial period, you must cancel the paid subscription before the end of the Free Trial by clicking here and pressing the cancel button.

Golf Schools

IGI’s golf school reschedule and cancellation policy can be found at

Digital Millennium Copyright Act

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under the U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by IGI infringe your copyright, you, or your agent, may send IGI a notice requesting that the material be removed or access to it be blocked. Any notification by a copyright owner or a person authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with the requirements of the DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer upon IGI actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which infringing material or acts are evident. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send to IGI a counter-notice. All notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright for details. IGI’s Copyright Agent for notice shall be info@instantgolfimprovement.com. 

Assignment

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of IGI and our respective assigns, successors, heirs, and legal representatives.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights and obligations under this Agreement may be freely assigned by IGI to any affiliated entity or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries.

Dispute Resolution

These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Florida, and any dispute shall be subject to binding arbitration in Polk County, Florida. Suppose any provision of this agreement shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable. In that case, that provision shall be deemed severable from this agreement and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Class Action Waiver

You may only resolve disputes with IGI on an individual basis. You may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed.

The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action, or private attorney general action) unless all relevant parties specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration.

Severability

Suppose any clause within these Terms of Service (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable. In that case, that clause will be severed from these Terms of Service, and the remainder of these Terms of Service will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the Dispute Resolution provision will be unenforceable, and a court will decide the dispute.
