10. Disclaimer Of Warranties And Limitation Of Liability
The "Translation" statements below are provided for convenience only and do not change the legal meaning of these Terms.
10.1 No Warranties
THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SITE WILL BE SAFE, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR UNINTERRUPTED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
Translation: We're doing our best, but we can't promise the website or services will always work perfectly or be problem-free.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPANY AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND CONTRACTORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE OR SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Translation: We're not responsible for ripple-effect losses like lost profits, lost data, or business disruptions.
10.3 Cap On Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF COMPANY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE, SERVICES, OR THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) $100 OR (B) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO COMPANY IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
This limitation applies regardless of whether the claim is based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other legal theory.
Translation: If we're ever found legally responsible for something, the most we'd have to pay is capped.
10.4 Basis Of The Bargain
YOU AGREE THAT THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THESE TERMS ARE A FUNDAMENTAL PART OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND COMPANY AND THAT COMPANY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OFFER THE SITE OR SERVICES AT THE SAME PRICES WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS.
Translation: If we had to take on more legal risk, everything would cost a lot more.
10.5 Third-Party Conduct And Services
WE DO NOT CONTROL OR DIRECT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE OR THIRD PARTIES DO OR SAY, ONLINE OR OFFLINE, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS, CONDUCT, OR CONTENT, EVEN IF YOU ENCOUNTER THEM THROUGH THE SITE OR SERVICES. WE ARE ALSO NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES, TOOLS, PLATFORMS, OR SERVICES.
Translation: We're not responsible for other people or other companies.
10.6 No Professional Advice
NOTHING ON THE SITE OR IN THE SERVICES CONSTITUTES LEGAL, MEDICAL, TAX, FINANCIAL, OR OTHER PROFESSIONAL ADVICE. THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED FOR EDUCATIONAL AND INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.
Translation: This is the internet, not your lawyer, doctor, or accountant.
11. Indemnification
11.1 Your Indemnification of Company
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Company and its owners, officers, employees, agents, and contractors from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Site or Services in violation of these Terms; (b) your violation of any applicable law or third-party rights; (c) any content you submit or post to the Site; or (d) your willful misconduct or gross negligence.
11.2 Indemnification Cap
Your indemnification obligations under this Section 11 shall not exceed the greater of: (a) the total amounts you have paid to Company in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim; or (b) $1,000. This cap does not apply to claims arising from your willful misconduct, fraud, or gross negligence.
11.3 Procedure
We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with our defense. You may not settle any such matter without our prior written consent.
Translation: If your actions cause legal trouble for us, you're responsible for dealing with it and covering the costs, but there's a reasonable cap on your exposure for ordinary situations.
12. Arbitration and Dispute Resolution
12.1 Informal Resolution First
Before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding, you agree to first contact Company at info@ourgoodwork.co and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days. Most disputes can be resolved this way. If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, either party may proceed as set forth below.
12.2 Binding Arbitration
Except as set forth in Section 12.5, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, or the Services, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, except as modified by this Section 12. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in California (or, at your election, your county of residence within the United States). The arbitrator shall apply California law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act.
12.3 Costs and Fees
Payment of filing fees, arbitrator fees, and other costs shall be governed by the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules. If you demonstrate that such costs would be prohibitive compared to litigation, Company will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Each party shall bear its own attorneys' fees unless the arbitrator determines that a claim or defense was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, in which case the arbitrator may award reasonable attorneys' fees to the prevailing party.
12.4 Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver
YOU AND COMPANY EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. YOU AND COMPANY EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding.
12.5 Exceptions to Arbitration
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court if the claim qualifies; (b) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights; or (c) bring claims that cannot be arbitrated as a matter of law.
12.6 Opt-Out Right
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to info@ourgoodwork.co within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your name, mailing address, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, you and Company may pursue claims against each other in court, subject to the jury trial waiver in Section 12.4 (to the extent enforceable). Opting out will not affect any other provisions of these Terms.
12.7 Survival and Severability
This Section 12 shall survive termination of these Terms. If any portion of this Section 12 is found unenforceable, the remainder shall continue in effect. If the class action waiver in Section 12.4 is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim (and only that claim) shall be severed and may proceed in court, while all other claims shall remain subject to arbitration.
13. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of California. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Alameda County, California. You waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue, including on grounds of inconvenient forum.
14. Miscellaneous
14.1 Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other policies referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Company regarding the Site and Services. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the Privacy Policy, these Terms shall control except with respect to the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information, which shall be governed by the Privacy Policy.
14.2 Waiver
The failure of Company to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by Company.
14.3 Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving the parties' original intent.

Company may assign these Terms or any rights or obligations hereunder without restriction. You may not assign these Terms or any rights or obligations hereunder without Company's prior written consent.

16. Accessibility[b] Statement
Good Work Collaborative LLC ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to making our website and digital services accessible to individuals with disabilities, in line with our values and applicable laws.
Our site may include features such as downloadable resources, embedded media, forms, and third-party integrations. This statement outlines our approach to accessibility.
Our Accessibility Goal
We strive to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.2 Level AA) success criteria for the portions of our website and services that we directly control. WCAG 2.2 is the current international standard most often referenced for digital accessibility.
We recognize that:
- Accessibility is an ongoing process, not a one-time achievement.
- Full conformance at all times may not always be feasible due to evolving technology and standards.
- No single technical standard is formally required for all private websites under current U.S. law.
While we make good-faith efforts to improve accessibility, we do not guarantee that every aspect of our site will be fully accessible in all situations, browsers, or with all assistive technologies.
Scope: What We Control vs. What We Don't
This statement applies to:
- Our primary website pages at ourgoodwork.co.
- Content and features we create and maintain directly (e.g., page text and downloadable files we produce).
This statement does not apply to:
- Third-party tools, platforms, or integrations (e.g., our form provider, analytics, or embedded widgets).
- User-generated content (if applicable, such as reviews or comments).
- Third-party sites linked from our website.
We select vendors with accessibility in mind where possible and encourage improvements, but we do not control their code, updates, or practices and cannot guarantee their accessibility.
Known Limitations
Some content or features may not fully meet WCAG guidelines, especially:
- Older downloadable files (e.g., PDFs) without full accessibility tagging.
- Images or graphics lacking detailed alternative text (we prioritize new content).
- Embedded videos or media from third parties that may lack captions, transcripts, or audio descriptions.
- Interactive tools or real-time features reliant on third-party services.
- Legacy pages or content created before our current accessibility efforts.
We are working to improve accessibility in new content, high-traffic areas, and core features within reasonable technical and business constraints.
Ongoing Efforts
We regularly review and test key areas we control, including:
- Keyboard navigation and focus indicators.
- Color contrast and text readability.
- Heading structure and semantic markup.
- Form labels, error messages, and alt text for images.
- Compatibility with common assistive technologies (e.g., screen readers like NVDA, VoiceOver, and JAWS).
When barriers are identified or reported in areas we control, we aim to address them promptly.
Alternative Access
If you encounter difficulty accessing any content or using our site due to a disability, please contact us. We are happy to provide alternative access (e.g., alternative formats or equivalent information).
Contact Us for Accessibility Feedback or Requests
We welcome your input—it helps us improve! Please reach out with details (e.g., URL, description of the issue, or screenshot) if you encounter any accessibility issues:
Email: info@ourgoodwork.co
We aim to respond to accessibility-related inquiries within five (5) to seven (7) business days.
Legal notices to Company must be sent to: info@ourgoodwork.co.
Questions about these Terms
Questions about these website Terms may be sent to: info@ourgoodwork.co. We may update these Terms at any time.
[b] Best practice is to include a separate tab in your site footer with an Accessibility statement so it is one click away from any site visitor on any page. However, if you cannot do that, or want to have double coverage, include this text here (just make sure to update in both places).
