MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
The relationship between members: I understand that the members who provide services and care do so in the capacity of a fellow member and not in the capacity of a [licensed healthcare provider], [licensed attorney], [licensed tax professional]. I further understand that within the society no [doctor-patient relationship], or [attorney-client privilege] exists but only a contract member-member collective relationship. In addition, I have freely chosen to change my legal status as a [public patient, customer, client, or member of the public] to that of a private member of the Society. I further understand that it is entirely my own responsibility to consider the advice and recommendations offered to me by my fellow members and to educate myself as to the efficacy, risks, and desirability of same and the acceptance of the offered or recommended, advice, counsel, therapy, treatment and care is my own carefully considered decision. Any request by me to a fellow member to assist me or provide me with the aforementioned advice, counsel, therapy, treatment, service and/or care is my own free decision in an exercise of my rights and made by me for my benefit, and I agree to hold the Trustees, and other members and the Society harmless from any unintentional liability for the results of such, except for harm that results from instances of a clear and present danger that raises to the level of substantive evil with malicious intent as determined by the Society and as stated and defined by the Supreme Court of the United States of America.
In addition, I understand that, since the Society is protected by God's Law, it is outside the [jurisdiction and authority of Federal and State Agencies and Authorities] concerning any and all complaints or grievances against the Society, Trustee(s), or members. All rights of complaints or grievances shall only be settled by an internal committee established by the Trustees of FoxPoz International. Therefore, for the benefit of the society and its members, I agree not to seek any remedy for relief in the [Public Domain]. I agree that my violation of any part of this member agreement would result in a [no contest legal proceeding] against me, including fines and penalties as determined by FoxPoz International and in accordance with the Bylaws of FoxPoz International. The privacy and security of membership records maintained within the Society, which have been held to be inviolate by the Supreme Court, therefore the undersigned member waives [HIPAA, ADA, FDA, FTC privacy rights and complaint process]. Any [medical, healthcare, or legal records], data, scans, surveys, analyses, tests, results, statements, forms, reports, or samples kept by the society will be strictly protected and only released upon written request of the member, and not to be shared or sold in the [public domain] without express written consent of both the Society and the member. I agree to join the Society, a Private Ecclesiastical Society, and contract under the Common Law of Contracts, with other members that also seek to help each other achieve better health and live longer with good quality of life.
I understand that the professionals, practitioners, and other providers who are fellow members of the Society are offering me advice, services, and benefits that do not necessarily conform to conventional practice, I fully agree not to file a lawsuit [malpractice, civil, or any other suit] against a fellow member of the Society, unless that member has maliciously forced me to a “clear and present danger that rises to the level of substantive evil” of “criminal intent”. I acknowledge that the members of the Society may not carry [malpractice or liability insurance]. No member will intentionally cause any other member of the Society harm be it physical, spiritual, emotional, or financial. If such a danger arises, I will make a grievance report to the Society for an equitable decision against the other member(s).
As a member, I accept the goals of helping my brain and body function better and choosing information and techniques that are both very safe and have a reasonably good chance to succeed, realizing that no technique or treatment is foolproof. If I choose conventional approaches to managing my health and business, such as to forgo drugs, surgery, or radiation that has been recommended to me by others, or conduct one's business affairs privately outside of the public domain, I fully accept the risk that I might suffer serious consequences from that choice. Other aspects of informed consent will take place in my discussions with the providers and my fellow members of the Society. I accept full and complete responsibility for my own life, and my own consequences for my own decisions in my journey for life, liberty, and my personal private pursuit of happiness.
My activities within the Society are a private matter and I lawfully refuse to share with the [Public Domain, State Medical Board], the [FDA], [FTC], [Medicare], [Medicaid] or my own [insurance company] or any other [public corporation, including government agencies] without both my express permission and that of the Society. All records and documents remain as property of the Society, even if I receive a copy of them. Any disclosure on my part of any information provided to me by the Society will constitute a violation of this membership agreement.
I understand that members, teachers, instructors, educators, doctors, lawyers, nurses, and other service providers within FoxPoz International are or may not be licensed educators, teachers, instructors, doctors, lawyers, nurses, or coaches.
I understand that within FoxPoz International a private contractual relationship exists as a contract member to member collective relationship. I have freely chosen to become a private member of FoxPoz International. In joining the Society, I hereby change my legal capacity as that of a public person, customer, or client to a private member of FoxPoz International.
I understand that the Society is outside the jurisdiction and authority of Federal and State Agencies and Authorities concerning any and all complaints or grievances against the Society, any Trustee(s), or member(s). All rights of complaints or grievances will be settled by a designee, committee, or tribunal appointed by the Trustees of the Society. By agreeing to this member agreement I agree that I have sought sufficient education to determine that this is the course of action I want to take for myself and my children.
I agree that violation of this membership contract will result in a no contest legal proceeding against me, including but not limited to liens and fines placed against myself and my property as a result of my violation of this membership contract, and therefore I acknowledge and consent that any breach of this Agreement on my part shall result in a judgment in favor of the Society in the amount of ten million dollars ($10,000,000), which shall be immediately due and payable on demand. Other aspects of informed consent may take place in my discussions with the providers and my fellow members of the Society. As I am voluntarily choosing this method of education and service providers, I will not hold The Association or its members financially liable for any particular outcome.
I agree to join FoxPoz International, a Private Ecclesiastical Society under common law, whose members seek to help each other achieve better health, education, and good quality of life.
My activities within the Society are a private matter that I refuse to share with any public agency without expressed specific permission. All records and documents remain as property of the Society, even if I receive a copy of them. I fully agree not to pursue any course of legal action against a fellow member of the Society, unless that member has exposed me to a clear and present danger of substantive evil, and upon the recommendation and approval of the Society.
I enter into this agreement of my own free will without any pressure or coercion. I affirm that, as a private member I do not represent any Local, State or Federal agency whose purpose is to regulate and approve products, services, or practices, or to carry out any mission of enforcement, entrapment or investigation. I have read and understood this document, and my questions have been answered fully to my satisfaction. I understand that I can withdraw from this agreement and terminate my membership in this association at any time, and that my membership can and will be revoked if I engage in abusive, violent, menacing, problematic, destructive or harassing behavior towards any other member.

I have read and understood this document, and my questions have been answered fully to my satisfaction. These pages and Article 13 of the Articles of Association of this Society consist of the entire agreement for my membership in the Society and they supersede any previous agreement.
Terms of agreement and cancellation: I understand that I can withdraw from this agreement and terminate my membership in this Society at any time.

I understand that my membership will auto-renew on the annual anniversary date of my membership and will continue to auto-renew until I decide to cancel, which I can do at any time by emailing infoa@wellnessafterillness.com with the subject line “PMA Renewal Cancelation Request” or in writing to FoxPoz International c/o 505 280th Ave, Granada, MN 56039 at least 14 business days prior to auto-renewal.

The Services may permit you to link to other websites, services or resources on the Internet, and other websites, services or resources may contain links to the Services. When you access third party resources on the Internet, you do so at your own risk. These other resources are not under our control, and you acknowledge that we are not responsible or liable for the content, functions, accuracy, legality, appropriateness or any other aspect of such websites or resources. The inclusion of any such link does not imply our endorsement or any association between us and their operators. You further acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such content, goods or services available on or through any such website or resource.
8) Payments and Billing.
A. Paid Services. Certain of our Services may be subject to payments now or in the future (the “Paid Services”). Please see https://www.podia.com/pricing for a description of the current Paid Services. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service are deemed part of this Agreement.
B. Billing. We use a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill you through a payment account linked to your Account on the Services (your “Billing Account”) for use of the Paid Services. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor in addition to these Terms of Service. We are not responsible for error by the Payment Processor. By choosing to use Paid Services, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such Paid Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms and you authorize us, through the Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment Method”). You agree to make payment using that selected Payment Method. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment.
C. Payment Method. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account upon demand.
D. Recurring Billing. Some of the Paid Services may consist of an initial period, for which there is no charge or a one-time or initial charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you. By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such Services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD, GO TO https://app.podia.com/account/billing.
E. Current Information Required. YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE AT HTTPS://APP.PODIA.COM/SETTINGS. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
F. Change in Amount Authorized. If the amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), you have the right to receive, and we shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with your payment provider will govern your use of your Payment Method. You agree that we may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.
G. Auto-Renewal for Subscription-Based Services. Unless you opt out of auto-renewal, which can be done through your Account settings at https://app.podia.com/account/billing, any subscription-based Services you have signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current non-promotional rate. To change or resign your Subscription Services at any time, go to https://app.podia.com/account/billing. If you terminate a subscription-based Service, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current term; your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you won’t be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.
H. Reaffirmation of Authorization. Your non-termination or continued use of a Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method for that Paid Service. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Paid Service.
I. Free Trials and Other Promotions. Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a Paid Service must be used within the specified time of the trial. You must stop using a Paid Service before the end of the trial period in order to avoid being charged for that Paid Service. If you cancel prior to the end of the trial period and are inadvertently charged for a Paid Service, please contact us at hello@podia.com.

IN PARTICULAR, THE OPERATION OF THE SERVICES MAY BE INTERRUPTED DUE TO MAINTENANCE, UPDATES, OR SYSTEM OR NETWORK FAILURES, AND SUCH FAILURES MAY RESULT IN ERRORS OR DATA LOSS. WE DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY ANY SUCH INTERRUPTION OR ERRORS IN FUNCTIONING, OR BY THE LOSS OF ANY DATA OR INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO PODIA. FURTHERMORE, WE DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY MALFUNCTIONING, IMPOSSIBILITY OF ACCESS, OR POOR USE CONDITIONS OF THE SERVICES DUE TO INAPPROPRIATE EQUIPMENT, DISTURBANCES RELATED TO INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS, TO THE SATURATION OF THE INTERNET NETWORK, AND FOR ANY OTHER REASON.
10) Indemnification.
You shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us, our affiliates and each of our and their respective employees, contractors, directors, suppliers and representatives from all liabilities, claims, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that arise from or relate to your use or misuse of, or access to, the Site, the Services, Content, or otherwise from your User Content, your violation of these Terms of Service, or infringement by you, or any third party using your Account or identity in the Services, of any intellectual property or other right of any person or entity. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will assist and cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses.
11) ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER – IMPORTANT – PLEASE REVIEW AS THIS AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS:
A. ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER. YOU AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND PODIA OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR EMPLOYEES IN THEIR CAPACITY AS SUCH (WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DISPUTE INVOLVES A THIRD PARTY) WITH REGARD TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH PODIA, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DISPUTES RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, AND/OR RIGHTS OF PRIVACY AND/OR PUBLICITY, WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE STREAMLINED ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES OF JAMS, INC. THEN IN EFFECT, AND YOU AND PODIA HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU HAVE IN ANY MANNER VIOLATED OR THREATENED TO VIOLATE PODIA’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, WE MAY SEEK INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER APPROPRIATE RELIEF IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL IN ARBITRATION ARE GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN IN A LAWSUIT, AND OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU AND PODIA WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. AS AN ALTERNATIVE, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIM IN YOUR LOCAL “SMALL CLAIMS” COURT, IF PERMITTED BY THAT SMALL CLAIMS COURT’S RULES AND IF WITHIN SUCH COURT’S JURISDICTION, UNLESS SUCH ACTION IS TRANSFERRED, REMOVED OR APPEALED TO A DIFFERENT COURT. YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS ONLY ON YOUR OWN BEHALF. NEITHER YOU NOR PODIA WILL PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION FOR ANY CLAIMS COVERED BY THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST PODIA INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS. You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person’s account, if Podia is a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and not by any state law concerning arbitration. In the event JAMS, Inc. is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either Podia or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the American Arbitration Association. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with these Terms of Service. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of, related to or connected with the use of the Services or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim of action arose or be forever banned.
B. 30-Day Opt-Out Period. If you do not wish to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions in this Section 15, you must notify Podia in writing within 30 days of the date that you first accept these Terms of Service (unless a longer period is required by applicable law). Your written notification must be mailed to Podia at the following address: 228 Park Ave S, PMB 96490, New York, NY 10003-1502. If you do not notify Podia in accordance with this Section 15(b), you agree to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions of these Terms of Service, including such provisions in any Terms of Service revised after the date of your first acceptance. Such notification must include: (i) your name; (ii) your email and mailing addresses and (iii) a statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with Podia through arbitration. If Podia makes any changes to the Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section of these Terms of Service (other than a change to the address at which we will receive notices of dispute, opt-out notices, or rejections of future changes to the Arbitration and Clause Action Waiver section), you may reject any such change by sending Podia written notice within 30 days of the change to the address set forth in this Section 15(b). This notification affects these Terms of Service only; if you previously entered into other arbitration agreements with Podia or enter into other such agreements in the future, your notification that you are opting out of the arbitration provision in these Terms of Service shall not affect the other arbitration agreements between you and Podia.
C. Severability. If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section will be null and void. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Podia.
12) Limitation of Liability.
IN NO EVENT SHALL WE, NOR OUR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, SUPPLIERS OR CONTENT PROVIDERS, BE LIABLE UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES (I) FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, DATA LOSS, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, COMPENSATORY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (HOWEVER ARISING), (II) FOR ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE (REGARDLESS OF THE SOURCE OF ORIGINATION), OR (III) FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF (IN THE AGGREGATE) OF the greater of (A) fees paid to us for the particular Services during the immediately previous three (3) month period or (B) $500.00.
13) Governing Law and Jurisdiction.
These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, including its conflicts of law rules, and the United States of America. You agree that any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Service shall be governed by the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and Federal courts of New York County, New York.
14) Modification.
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify or replace any of these Terms of Service, or change, suspend, or discontinue the Services (including without limitation, the availability of any feature, database, or content) at any time by posting a notice on the Site or by sending you notice through the Services, via e-mail or by another appropriate means of electronic communication.

If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms of Service will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder.

E. Notices. Unless otherwise specified in these Terms of Service, all notices under these Terms of Service will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by facsimile or e-mail; or the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service. Electronic notices should be sent to hello@podia.com.
F. No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any part of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of our right to later enforce that or any other part of these Terms of Service. Waiver of compliance in any particular instance does not mean that we will waive compliance in the future.
