Terms of Use

Introduction

Boomwriter.com (the "Site") is owned and operated and presented to you and other users of the Site by Boomwriter LTD, (“BoomWriter”). Any reference to “our,” “we,” “us” or the like shall mean BoomWriter.

All users agree to uphold their responsibilities under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”), the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (“PPRA”), the Children’s Online Privacy and Protection Act (“COPPA”).

Due to the potential of user interest, we have included some information below related to the Children’s Online Privacy and Protection Act (“COPPA”). COPPA requires that online service providers obtain parental consent before they knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. Therefore, we may collect personal information through the Service from a child under 13 where that student’s school, district, and/or teacher has agreed (via the terms described in the following paragraph) to obtain parental consent for that child to use the Service and disclose personal information to us or where the parent or legal guardian of a child has signed the child up to use the Service. If you are a student under 13, please do not send any personal information about yourself to us if your school, district, and/or teacher has not obtained this prior consent from your parent or guardian or if your parent or guardian has not signed you up to use the Service, and please do not send any personal information other than what we request from you in connection with the Service. If we learn we have collected personal information from a student under 13 without parental consent being obtained by his or her parent, guardian, school, district, and/or teacher, or if we learn a student under 13 has provided us personal information beyond what we request from him or her, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a student under 13 may have provided us personal information in violation of this paragraph, please contact us at privacy@boomwriter.com.

You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract (or if not, you’ve received your parent’s or guardian’s permission to use the Service and gotten your parent or guardian to agree to these Terms on your behalf, as we described earlier, and also to agree to these Terms on their own behalf). You also certify that you are legally permitted to use and access the Service and take full responsibility for the selection and use of and access to the Service. This Agreement is void where prohibited by law, and the right to access the Service is revoked in such jurisdictions.

Note that special Terms apply to some Services offered on the Site, like subscription-based services, rules for particular contests or other features or activities. These terms are posted in connection with the applicable service. Subject to applicable law, any such terms are in addition to these terms of use, and in the event of a conflict, prevail over these terms of use.

You acknowledge that these Terms of Use are supported by reasonable and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you acknowledge that such consideration includes your use of the Site and receipt of data, materials and information available at or through the Site, the possibility of our use or display of your Solicited Submissions (as defined below in section entitled "Submissions") and the possibility of the publicity and promotion from our use or display of your Solicited Submissions.

BY ENTERING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND HAVE TAKEN TIME TO CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS IMPORTANT DECISION.

Arbitration Agreement

By agreeing to the Terms, you agree that you are required to resolve any claim that you may have against Boomwriter LTD on an individual basis in arbitration, as set forth in this Arbitration Agreement. This will preclude you from bringing any class, collective, or representative action against Boomwriter LTD, and also preclude you from participating in or recovering relief under any current or future class, collective, consolidated, or representative action brought against Boomwriter LTD by someone else.

Agreement to Binding Arbitration Between You and Boomwriter LTD

You and Boomwriter LTD agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to (a) these Terms or the existence, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, or (b) your access to or use of the Services at any time, whether before or after the date you agreed to the Terms, will be settled by binding arbitration between you and Boomwriter LTD, and not in a court of law.

a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Unless both you and Boomwriter LTD otherwise agree in writing, any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. However, you and Boomwriter LTD each retain the right to bring an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.

Rules and Governing Law.

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org/arb_med or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.

The parties agree that the arbitrator (“Arbitrator”), and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The Arbitrator shall also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether the Terms are unconscionable or illusory and any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, or estoppel.

Notwithstanding any choice of law or other provision in the Terms, the parties agree and acknowledge that this Arbitration Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”), will govern its interpretation and enforcement and proceedings pursuant thereto. It is the intent of the parties that the FAA and AAA Rules shall preempt all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA and AAA Rules are found to not apply to any issue that arises under this Arbitration Agreement or the enforcement thereof, then that issue shall be resolved under the laws of the state of Massachusetts.

Process

A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration - Consumer Arbitration Rules at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879). The Arbitrator will be either (1) a retired judge or (2) an attorney specifically licensed to practice law in the state of Massachusetts and will be selected by the parties from the AAA's roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an Arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the Arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

Location and Procedure

Unless you and Boomwriter LTD otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in Massachusetts. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and Boomwriter LTD submit to the Arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the Arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the Arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

Arbitrator's Decision

The Arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction to do so. The Arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant's individual claim. An Arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on all parties. An Arbitrator’s decision and judgment thereon shall have no precedential or collateral estoppel effect. Boomwriter LTD may be entitled under applicable law to recover, attorneys' fees and expenses if Boomwriter LTD prevails in arbitration.

Fees

Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $75,000, Boomwriter LTD will pay all such fees, unless the Arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).

Changes

Notwithstanding the provisions in Section I above, regarding consent to be bound by amendments to these Terms, if Boomwriter LTD changes this Arbitration Agreement after the date you first agreed to the Terms (or to any subsequent changes to the Terms), you may reject any such change by providing Boomwriter LTD written notice of such rejection within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the "Effective" date above. This written notice must be provided either (a) by mail or hand delivery c/o Boomwriter LTD or (b) by email from the email address associated with your Account to: privacy@boomwriter.com. In order to be effective, the notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to reject changes to this Arbitration Agreement. By rejecting changes, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between you and Boomwriter LTD in accordance with the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first agreed to the Terms (or to any subsequent changes to the Terms).

Severability and Survival

If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (1) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (2) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to the Arbitration Agreement; and (3) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration.

Accounts

Some services on the Site permit or require you to create an account to participate or to secure additional benefits.

In consideration of your use of the Service utilizing BoomWriter and/or running a BoomWriter Virtual Summer Camp, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age and are not a person barred from receiving these services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdiction. You also agree to: (a) provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service’s registration form (the “Member Data”) and (b) maintain and promptly update the Member Data to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete at all times.

You shall not impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your identity or affiliation with any person or entity, including using another person's username, password or other account information, or another person's name, likeness, voice, image or photograph. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, or if BoomWriter has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, without limiting any other remedies, BoomWriter has the right to suspend or terminate your Member Account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof).

Educational Institutions may use the Services to automatically create accounts on behalf of its students, using Education Records to “pre-populate” those students’ names and contact information into the accounts and providing BoomWriter with such information of the students. The student then chooses whether to activate an account with BoomWriter to enroll in online courses, camps, or tutoring sessions, take part in the class discussion, and use other features available through the Services. We treat that pre-populated content as the Educational Institution’s confidential information; that means that we won’t disclose it or use it, except as we’re expressly required or allowed to under our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. Once a student activates his/her account, any information in their account (even information pre-populated by Educational Institutions) belongs to them – we consider it disclosed by the individual (even if it was initially pre-populated by Educational Institutions).

Access and Deletion of Education Records

As between an Educational Institution and BoomWriter, Education Records (as defined below) continue to be the property of and under the control of the Educational Institution. You own all right, title and interest to and are solely responsible for all Education Records. Education Records shall mean student educational records that are: (1) directly related to your student; and (2) maintained by you or by a party acting for you (“Education Records”). We do not own, control, or license such Education Records, except as permitted under BoomWriter’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

In order to allow BoomWriter to provide you with the Services, you hereby designate BoomWriter as a “school official” with a “legitimate educational interest” under FERPA in using and accessing your Education Records. You also represent and warrant to BoomWriter that (a) you have obtained all consents necessary in connection with disclosing any Education Records directly or indirectly to BoomWriter, or otherwise in connection with the Services, and (b) your disclosures described in (a) are not and will not be a violation of FERPA.

BoomWriter will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with written requests from you or a Parent for access to and review their Education Records and to correct any erroneous information within a reasonable period of time, but not more than 45 days after we have received the request. You and Parents can submit such request by sending us an email request to privacy@boomwriter.com. Whenever applicable, you will serve as the intermediary for the requests by Parents, wherein the parent requests access to any Education Records created and maintained by BoomWriter directly from you, and you then obtain the Education Records from us to give back to the Parent.

Parents, legal guardians, or eligible pupils may review personally identifiable information in the pupil's records and correct erroneous information by the following protocol:

Removing or changing student Projects – Parents or kids can login to their child’s account, and edit or delete active Projects Request to do so with approved/archived projects must be requested via email by contacting privacy@boomwriter.com.

You understand that you and Parents may not be able to access or use certain portion of the Services after BoomWriter deleted the account and information pursuant to your or Parents’ request. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such deletion request and we certify that we will not retain or otherwise make available to third parties the Education Records after the termination, except (i) as permitted hereunder, or (ii) if a student chooses to establish or maintain an account with BoomWriter for the purposes of storing student-generated content. However, we may de-identify student information, [including without limitation, by deleting or de-identifying all PII from Educational Records within seventy-two (72) hours of our receipt of the termination notice, except for Student Data residing on internal logs which will be removed within ninety (90) days, and will also provide notice to the Educational Institutions when PII from Educational Records has been deleted and/or anonymized], before we retain it, share it with other parties, or use it for other purposes.

Data Privacy, Confidentiality, and Security

BoomWriter maintains industry level administrative, physical, and technical measures to protect Education Records stored in our servers, which are located in the United States. We train our employees to ensure the security and confidentiality of Education Records maintained by us. If there is any unauthorized disclosure or access to any PII from Education Records, we will promptly notify you, any other affected Educational Institutions by email and will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with your or their investigations of the incident. We require that you inform the parents of all affected students, since BoomWriter may not have access to Parent contact information. As the owner of the Education Records, you may be responsible for the timing, content, cost, and method of any notice requirements triggered by security incidents under applicable laws. When permissible under applicable laws, you may request BoomWriter to bear responsibility for the timing, content and method of such required notice on your behalf. In all instances, BoomWriter will indemnify Educational Institutions for all reasonable costs associated with compliance with such notice requirements arising from a breach of the Services by BoomWriter. For clarity and without limitation, BoomWriter will not indemnify for any notification costs arising from a breach of you or a third party.

You further agree that we may use, store, transmit, distribute, modify, copy, display, sublicense, and create derivative works of the De-identified Metadata even after this Agreement has expired or been terminated.

You also agree to promptly notify us at privacy@boomwriter.com of any unauthorized use of your username, password, other account information, or any other breach of security that you become aware of involving or relating to the Site. In addition, you agree to exit from your account at the end of each session.

Subject to applicable law, we may suspend or terminate your account and your ability to use the Site or portion thereof for failure to comply with these terms of use or any special terms related to a particular service, for infringing copyright, or for any other reason whatsoever.

Provided you are in compliance with these Terms, BoomWriter will distribute the monies due to you (as a Teacher/Camp Counselor/Tutor) for the sale of your camp/services. If you are in breach of these Terms, BoomWriter reserves the right, according to its sole discretion, to withhold any funds that would otherwise be due to you under these Terms, and either keep those funds permanently or refund them to the Parents who purchased services from you. All monies due to providers pursuant to this Section will be paid to such providers as close to 21 days following the last day of which your camp/tutoring service is conducted. BoomWriter reserves the right to delay payment. BoomWriter reserves the right to add, remove or otherwise alter the payment processors used by the Service. If you cannot acquire an account with an approved payment processor, we may consider an alternative form of payment on a case-by-case basis. We make no representation regarding the services provided by our payment processors, and are not responsible for delays in payment caused by them.

Public Forums and Communication

"Public Forum" means an area, site or feature offered as part of the Site that offers the opportunity for users to Distribute Submissions for viewing by one or more Site users, including a chat area, message board or social community environment.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT PUBLIC FORUMS AND FEATURES OFFERED THEREIN ARE FOR PUBLIC AND NOT PRIVATE COMMUNICATIONS, AND YOU HAVE NO EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY WITH REGARD TO ANY SUBMISSION TO A PUBLIC FORUM. We cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose through any of these media; you make such disclosures at your own risk.

Subject to applicable law, you are and shall remain solely responsible for the Submissions you Distribute on or through the Site under your username or otherwise by you in any Public Forum and for the consequences of submitting and posting same.

Also, you should be skeptical about information provided by others, and you acknowledge that the use of any Submission posted in any Public Forum is at your own risk. For example, we are not responsible for, and we do not endorse, the opinions, advice or recommendations posted or sent by users in any Public Forum and we specifically disclaim any and all liability in connection therewith.

We owe you no obligation, and therefore may refuse, to post, deliver, remove, modify or otherwise use or take any action with respect to Submissions you Distribute.

We reserve the right to screen, refuse to post, remove, edit, store and/or review Submissions at any time and from time to time and for any or no reason including, without limitation, to ensure that the Submissions conform to the Rules of Conduct, in our absolute and sole discretion without prior notice. If we elect to screen Submissions, there may be a delay in the posting of such content in a Public Forum to allow for a review process. If we have questions about your Submissions including, without limitation, the copyright, we may contact you for further information including, for example, to verify that you own the copyright or otherwise obtained permission to post the material.

BoomWriter does not routinely monitor all material placed on the Services, but may in its discretion delete or modify any material offending the above that comes to its attention.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE SITE MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR (OR THE MINIMUM APPLICABLE STATUTORY PERIOD, IF LONGER) AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE PERMANENTLY BARRED.

Claims of Copyright Infringement

We have adopted and implemented a policy that provides for the termination, in appropriate circumstances as determined by us in our sole discretion, of users who are infringers of copyright.

Notifications of claimed copyright infringement must be sent to Service Provider's Designated Agent.

Notification must be submitted to the following Designated Agent:

Service Provider: Boomwriter LTD

Email Address of Designated Agent to Which Notification Should Be Sent to: copyright@boomwriter.com

To be effective, the email communication should include the following:

  • A scanned physical or electronic signature of person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site;
  • Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material;
  • Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted;
  • A statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

We may give you notice that we have removed or disabled access to certain material by means of a general notice on the Site, electronic mail to a user's email address in our records, or by written communication sent by first-class mail to your physical address in our records. If you receive such a notice, you may provide counter-notification in writing to the designated agent that includes the information below. To be effective, the counter-notification must be a written communication that includes the following:

  • Your physical or electronic signature;
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
  • A statement from you under the penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
  • Your name, physical address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of a court for the judicial district in which your physical address is located, or if your physical address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which Boomwriter may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of allegedly infringing material or an agent of such person.

If you are a school, district or teacher, registering on BoomWriter, the site will generate a unique School Code you may use with limited access group you administer (an “Access Code”). For example, if you wished to establish a closed group among yourself, as a teacher, and your 4th grade class, you would distribute the Access Code only to those members of your 4th grade class that you wanted to view what was going on within that group. Everyone to whom a group administrator distributes the Access Code to will be a member of that “Limited Access Group.” Students will log into to the Services using accounts created by teachers, school administrators or teachers or students may log in through their Google Apps For Education login and use an Access Code to join a Limited Access Group.

Refund Policy

All physical and digital product sales are final, and no refunds are available.

As a buyer, it is your responsibility to determine that you have the appropriate hardware/software internet and service connectivity to make use of BoomWriter services, that the format is appropriate for your needs, and that the content you are generating/utilizing is legal and noninfringing. No refunds are available in these cases. Products and Services removed due to a complaint of copyright/trademark infringement, or for any other reason, are not eligible for a refund.
