TALENT TRANSFORMATION CONTENT GUIDELINES

GENERAL GUIDELINES

TT allows users to contribute different kinds of content, including listings, articles, reviews, documents, photos, videos, events, votes, tips, and more. These guidelines set forth our policies regarding such your posting of such content. Please also read the guidelines below for specific types of content that you might contribute to the site.

Inappropriate content: While descriptive language is acceptable, the use of threats, harassment, lewdness, hate speech, and other displays of bigotry are not.

Conflicts of interest: Your contributions should be unbiased and objective. For example, you should not write reviews of your own business or employer, your friends’ or relatives’ business, your peers or competitors in your industry, or businesses in your networking group.

Promotional content: Unless you're using your Vendor Account to add listings or articles, we prohibit promotional content in order to keep the site useful for consumers and not overrun promotional content from every user.

Relevance: Please make sure your contributions are relevant and appropriate to the forum. For example, reviews are not appropriate for rants about a business's employment practices, political ideologies, extraordinary circumstances, or other matters that don't address the core of the consumer experience.

Privacy: Don’t publicize other people’s personally identifiable information, which is information that expressly identifies a person or reasonably could be used to identify a person. Do not post close-up photos or videos of customers or users without their permission, or post other people’s full names unless you are referring to service providers who are commonly identified by or commonly share their own full names.

Original Content: Post content that is original to you. Do not misappropriate content from other sites or users.

ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES

REVIEW GUIDELINES

The best reviews are passionate and personal. They offer a rich narrative, a wealth of detail, and a helpful tip or two for other consumers. Here are some additional thoughts for conscientious reviewers.

Personal experience: We want to hear about your firsthand experience with a vendor, product or service, not what you heard from your co-worker, significant other or friend. Try to tell your own story without resorting to broad generalizations and conclusory allegations.

Accuracy: Make sure your review is factually correct. Feel free to air your opinions, but don't exaggerate or misrepresent your experience. We don't take sides when it comes to factual disputes, so we expect you to stand behind your review.

Review updates: Review updates should reflect a new experience or interaction with the business. Don't tell the same old story you've already told. If you'd like to add new insight to an old experience, you can edit your review within 30 days of posting it.

Demanding payment: Refunds and payments are matters for you to resolve with your vendor. You should not use posting or removing your review as a way to extract a refund or payment from a vendor, regardless of the circumstances.

DOCUMENT, DIAGRAM, PHOTO AND VIDEO GUIDELINES

Any documents, diagrams, photos, and videos should be relevant to the listing, review, article or thread of the discussion.

ASK THE COMMUNITY

We know that being able to ask and answer questions from the community about a business is extremely valuable. When using this service, please use it responsibly. Here are some guidelines when interacting with other users via questions and answers.

Be helpful: A lot of people will benefit from your questions and answers, so questions that are likely to elicit responses that are relevant to others are encouraged. Keep the tone civil and non-argumentative.

Be specific: Although broad questions and generic answers may get a large response, they might not provide the quality information that you seek. By adding more context and details into your questions/answers you’ll get more focused information and meaningful conversation.

Be clear: Pose your question in language that is easy to understand to encourage answers.

Answers with Questions: Avoid answering a question with another question as it detracts from and necessarily delays the answer to the original question

USER PROFILE GUIDELINES

Use your account profile to let people know who you are and what makes your point of view valuable. Users want to read reviews from people they know and trust (not those with profiles that are empty or laced with inappropriate content).

EVENT GUIDELINES

Please post event listings for events that are going to happen in the next 12 months and are open to everyone or open to members of a professional association. Please do not list events for your recurring promotional announcements, webinars, or non-public events.

VENDOR ACCOUNT GUIDELINES

From the Business: Do not use your business description to attack your competitors, reviewers, or TT, to seed keywords or to post special offers or promotions.

Public Comments: Messaging someone directly is often the best way to resolve a dispute with an unhappy customer, but business representatives can also address issues publicly by posting a response to a review. Don’t use TT to launch personal attacks, or offer an incentive to change a review.

Video and Photos: Videos and pictures are a great way for vendors to promote their products and services on TT. Be as creative as you can and, of course, be appropriate. Videos and pictures are not to be used to disparage other vendors, users, or TT; request or solicit reviews from users; or respond to user reviews.

Don’t offer compensation for reviews: You should never offer compensation, including discounts and free services, in exchange for reviews.

ADDITIONAL TERMS FOR VENDOR ACCOUNTS

The following terms (“Vendor Terms”), in addition to the Terms of Service above (the “User Terms of Service”), govern your access to and use of the Service if you represent a vendor of solutions or if you use your User Account to create or maintain listings, articles, events, or other promotional content. In the event of any conflict between these Vendor Terms and the User Terms of Service, these Vendor Terms apply. If you purchase products or services from TT on behalf of your business (e.g., advertising, consulting, business tools, etc.), the terms of that purchase will apply in the event of any conflict with these Vendor Terms. Capitalized words used but not defined in these Vendor Terms have the meanings described in the User Terms of Service.

BY CREATING, ACCESSING, OR USING YOUR VENDOR ACCOUNT, YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE VENDOR TERMS AND CONCLUDING A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT WITH TT. YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO CREATE, ACCESS, OR USE A VENDOR ACCOUNT IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE VENDOR TERMS.

Please read these Vendor Terms carefully as they require the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than trials or class actions, and also limit the remedies available to you in the event of a dispute.

In the event of any termination of these Vendor Terms, whether by you or us, these Vendor Terms in their entirety will continue in full force and effect.

C. You understand and acknowledge that TT allows users to post Content about your products and services, including documents, photos, videos, ratings, and reviews. You understand and acknowledge that TT may employ automated software in an effort to showcase the most reliable and useful reviews while displaying other reviews less prominently (“Recommendation Software”).

You understand and acknowledge that any purchase of advertising or other paid features from TT will not influence the Recommendation Software or otherwise allow or enable You, directly or indirectly, to alter reviews or impact whether, where, or how reviews appear on TT.

The following Sections 2 and 3 apply if you are a resident of the United States or Canada:

2. DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY SINCE IT LIMITS THE LIABILITY OF THE TT ENTITIES TO YOU. FOR CLARITY, THE BELOW APPLIES IN ADDITION TO THE DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY DETAILED IN SECTION 12 OF THE USER TERMS OF SERVICE.

The federal Communications Decency Act (47 U.S. Code § 230) limits the liability of interactive computer services, like TT, for their role in publishing third-party Content, including consumer reviews. Additionally, laws that prohibit strategic lawsuits against public participation (anti-SLAPP laws) may require you to pay TT's attorneys' fees if you attempt to impose such liability on TT through legal proceedings.

3. DISPUTES

Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to: (a) these Terms or the User Terms of Service in connection with your Vendor Account, or the breach thereof; or (b) your access to or use of your Vendor Account (each such controversy or claim, a “Claim”), shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator will issue a reasoned award in writing, including all findings of fact and law upon which the award was made. The arbitrator will not have the power to commit errors of law, and the award may be vacated or corrected through judicial review by a court of competent jurisdiction under the Revised Florida Arbitration Act for any such error.

Claims shall be heard by a single arbitrator. Arbitrations will be held in Miami, Florida, but the parties may choose for themselves whether to appear in person, by phone, or through the submission of documents. The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida. The prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, FOR ANY CLAIM THAT IS NOT SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION, YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT AND CONSENT TO THE PERSONAL AND EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION IN, AND THE EXCLUSIVE VENUE OF, THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED WITHIN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA.

YOU AND TT AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND TT AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF OTHER PERSONS OR PARTIES WHO MAY BE SIMILARLY SITUATED, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. IF A CLAIM IMPLICATES THIS SECTION, AND THIS SECTION IS FOUND TO BE INVALID, UNENFORCEABLE OR ILLEGAL BY A COURT, SUCH CLAIM MUST BE ADJUDICATED BY A COURT AND NOT BY AN ARBITRATOR.

TALENT TRANSFORMATION EVENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These terms and conditions (the "Event Terms") govern attendance and participation in events listed in the Service.

The term "TT Event" means an event, gathering, promotion, contest, meet-up or the like that is organized or hosted by TT. "Non-TT Event" means an event, gathering, promotion, contest, meet-up or the like that is organized by someone other than TT but that may appear or be listed on the Service.

IN ORDER TO ATTEND OR PARTICIPATE IN AN TT EVENT, YOU MUST FIRST AGREE TO THESE EVENT TERMS. IF, AFTER READING THESE EVENT TERMS, YOU FIND THAT YOU CANNOT OR WILL NOT AGREE TO ANY TERMS OR CONDITIONS WITHIN IT, DO NOT RSVP TO OR ATTEND ANY TT EVENT. IF YOU RSVP TO ANY TT OR NON-TT EVENT THROUGH THE TT SITE, YOU CONFIRM THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO THESE EVENT TERMS.

If you are an TT employee or agent, any inconsistencies between these Event Terms and other agreements you may have entered into with TT will be resolved in favor of your employment agreements or contracts.

1. TRANSLATIONS

While we may translate these Event Terms into other languages for your convenience, any inconsistencies among the different versions will be resolved in favor of the English version. Similarly, any inconsistencies between these Event Terms and the User Terms of Service will be resolved in favor of the Event Terms.

2. VIDEOS AND PHOTOS

TT, its sponsors and vendors sometimes take photos and videos at TT Events, and later use them for promotional purposes. By participating or attending any TT Event, you agree that you may appear in these photos and videos, and you authorize their use in this fashion. Conversely, if you take any photos or videos of attendees at a TT Event and provide them to us, you authorize us to use them in the same fashion, and represent that the attendees that appear in your photos and videos have also consented to such use.

TT does not control Non-TT Events or the people that organize them. It is possible that organizers or attendees of Non-TT Events will take photos or shoot videos in which you appear and then post them online (including, possibly, on the TT Site). By RSVP'ing to a Non-TT Event through the TT site, you authorize TT's use of such media for promotional purposes.

3. ASSUMPTION OF RISK / RELEASE OF LIABILITY / INDEMNITY

a) Assumption of Risk. There are inherent risks associated in any event and the activities involved in the event, including TT Events and Non-TT Events.

You agree to carefully consider the inherent risks in any activities that you choose to take part in and to take reasonable precautions before you choose to attend or participate in an TT Event. For example, you should ensure that you are in good physical health before engaging in any physical activity at an TT Event and you should always drink responsibly—and be aware that other TT Event attendees and participants may be less responsible than you and may themselves create additional risk to you.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOUR ATTENDANCE AND PARTICIPATION AT TT EVENTS IS VOLUNTARY, AND YOU AGREE TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY RESULTING INJURIES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

YOU AGREE THAT TT IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY NON-TT EVENTS OR FOR ANY INJURIES OR LOSSES THAT YOU MIGHT SUSTAIN ATTENDING OR PARTICIPATING IN NON-TT EVENTS.

(b) Release of Liability. YOU (FOR YOURSELF, YOUR HEIRS, PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES, OR ASSIGNS, AND ANYONE ELSE WHO MIGHT MAKE A CLAIM ON YOUR BEHALF) HEREBY RELEASE, WAIVE, DISCHARGE AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE TT AND ITS RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MANAGERS, PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, VENDORS, SPONSORS, AND VOLUNTEERS FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, CAUSES OF ACTION, DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (INCLUDING COURT COSTS AND REASONABLE ATTORNEYS FEES) THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF, RESULT FROM, OR RELATE IN ANY WAY TO YOUR ATTENDANCE AT ANY TT OR NON-TT EVENT, EXCEPT FOR, AND LIMITED ONLY TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY, ANY GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT BY TT.

(c) Indemnity. You agree to indemnify and hold TT, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, managers, directors, employees, agents and representatives harmless, including costs, liabilities and legal fees, from any claim or demand made by any third party due to, related to, or connected with your attendance at or participation in any TT or Non-TT Event.

4. TERMINATION

TT may prohibit your attendance at any TT Event at any time if you fail to abide by these Event Terms, the User Terms of Service, or for any or no reason, without notice or liability of any kind. In the event of any termination, whether by you or us, these Event Terms will continue in full force and effect.

5. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE

Florida law will govern these Event Terms, as well as any claim, cause of action or dispute that might arise between you and TT (a "Claim"), without regard to conflict of laws provisions. FOR ANY CLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY, YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT AND CONSENT TO THE PERSONAL AND EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION IN, AND THE EXCLUSIVE VENUE OF, THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED WITHIN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA.

6. GENERAL TERMS

You agree that you will not misrepresent yourself as an employee, representative, or agent of TT. We reserve the right to cancel any TT Event at any time, for any reason, and without liability or prejudice. Any failure on TT's part to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Event Terms does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Event Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the Event Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
