Enduring Planet Terms of Use
Last updated December 6th, 2021
What This Is & Who We Are
These Terms of Use (the “Terms of Use” or “Terms”) define the relationship between Enduring Planet (the “Company” or “we” or “us”) and you, the person accessing our website located at www.enduringplanet.com (the “Site”) and registering for our services (“you” or “your”). If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company, organization, government, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to do so. Persons seeking consumer financing or consumer loans are forbidden. Persons under age 13 are forbidden from registering for and/or utilizing the Services (defined below). You may use the services only in compliance with these Terms and all applicable laws and regulations. These policies do not cover our relationship with companies in which we’ve already invested; the agreements between us and these companies cover those cases.
We may amend these Terms of Use at any time by posting the revised Terms of Use on the Site. Registered users of the Services will be notified by email (at their last known email address) of any material change(s) to these Terms. We may terminate these Terms of Use at any time by suspending or terminating access to the Site and/or Services and/or notifying you. You can see when these Terms of Use were last revised by referring to the “Updated” legend above. Your continued use of the Site or Services after we have posted revised Terms of Use signifies your acceptance of such revised Terms of Use. No amendment or modification of these Terms of Use will be binding unless in writing and signed by our duly authorized representative or posted to the Site by our duly authorized representative.
