Rewards Program

The Service currently includes a program for those who are invited and choose to participate, to accumulate, purchase and/or redeem rewards points (Points) on an individual basis for your own account (Rewards Program). The Rewards Program may be structured to offer benefits based on your current balance of ''redeemable'' Points (that is, Points that have not previously been redeemed) and/or ''lifetime'' Points (all prior Points accumulated, whether previously redeemed or not).

AvidCircle may establish criteria pursuant to which you may ''earn'' Points (e.g., by registering for the Service, engaging in specified activities, like creating and/or sharing content, and/or participating in other activities). In addition, points may expire and become non-redeemable after a specified period of time, as determined by AvidCircle.

AvidCircle may offer benefits to members in exchange for the redemption of a specified number of Points. The nature of those benefits and the number of Points required to obtain such benefits will be established by AvidCircle.

• Points have no cash value.
• Points have no purpose or use except in exchange for benefits (if any) offered by AvidCircle through the Rewards Program.
• Redemption offers may be time-limited.
• Rewards are subject to availability. AvidCircle reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to delete, add, modify or substitute e-gift cards at any time and for any reason.
• Points are not returnable, refundable, transferable, or exchangeable. In other words, Points may only be used in the rewards program and cannot be sold, traded, bartered, given away, redeemed by, or transferred to any other person or account.
• The Service and Rewards Program has no predetermined termination date and may continue until AvidCircle decides to terminate the Service and/or Rewards Program.
• Any account which has been dormant for a period of twelve (12) months may be deemed terminated, and all Points in that account may be removed and will not be reinstated.
• AvidCircle's ability to accurately credit Points to your account based on your activities at social networking sites may be restricted by the terms, conditions, or functions of such sites.
• Points are not valid unless earned in strict compliance with the requirements established by AvidCircle. You will not attempt to earn Points by any unauthorized means, including without limitation, by using any script, bot, or other automated methods.
• By redeeming the Points and accepting the rewards, you will be solely responsible for all (a) federal, state, provincial, and/or local taxes, if any; and (b) other fees and expenses associated with the receipt and use of the prize(s) or Points.
• Receipt of a reward constitutes permission (except where prohibited by law) for AvidCircle and its designees to use your name, voice, image, likeness, statements, biographical information, and any other personal characteristics in any and all media now or hereafter known, for any purpose, including without limitation advertising, marketing, promotional and/or publicity purposes without additional compensation.
• As a condition of participation in the Rewards Program, you hereby release AvidCircle and its affiliates and partners from and against any and all liability, claims, or actions of any kind whatsoever for injuries, damages, or losses to persons or property which may be sustained in connection with the earning, redemption, use or otherwise participating in any aspect of the Rewards Program, or the receipt, ownership or use of any reward(s) received.
• Unless a Reward comes with a product warranty, Rewards are awarded "AS IS" and without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
• AvidCircle is not responsible for any unavailability or interruptions to any equipment or Service used in connection with AvidCircle Ambassadors, including, without limitation: (a) interruptions to any network, server, internet, website, telephone, satellite, computer, or other connections; (b) failures of any telephone, satellite, hardware, software or other equipment; (c) garbled, misdirected or jumbled transmissions; (d) other errors of any kind, whether human, technical, mechanical or electronic; or (f) the failure or incorrect or inaccurate capture of Points, prizes or other information. AvidCircle reserves the right to disqualify any person tampering with the operation of AvidCircle Ambassadors, operation of the rewards site, or for violation of these Terms of Use.
• AvidCircle will have no liability for any printing, production, typographical, mechanical, or other errors in the Service, or Point balance errors, in a member's account. AvidCircle reserves the right to delay the processing of Points, restrict access to an account or remove Points if it determines that such Points were obtained through fraudulence or Points were improperly credited to such account.
• If the reward is returned to AvidCircle as undeliverable or if a member is found to be ineligible or declines acceptance of the reward for any reason, such reward will be forfeited. Upon reward forfeiture, Points will be credited back to the member's account at AvidCircle sole discretion. All redemption offers on the website are subject to change without notice.
• The decisions of AvidCircle with respect to the Points and Rewards Program are final and binding in all respects.
