User Accounts
Account Management and Youth Provisions
Our platform requires each user to create an individual account to access the services provided. Accounts are designed to be secure and user-friendly, ensuring a smooth experience for all members. Special considerations are in place for youth users, particularly those under the age of 18. These users must have parental or guardian consent to create an account, and certain features may be restricted to ensure a safe and appropriate environment. We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of all users, with additional safeguards for our younger audience.
Each account is personal and non-transferable, and users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials. Any unauthorized use of an account must be reported immediately to our support team. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate our terms or engage in prohibited activities. By creating an account, users agree to comply with all platform policies and guidelines.
Our platform supports multiple user accounts under organizational plans, allowing for collaborative access to resources. Organizations can manage user permissions and access levels to suit their operational needs. We provide tools for account management, ensuring that organizations can efficiently oversee their members’ engagement with our platform.

Dispute Resolution Process
Resolving Conflicts Efficiently
In the event of a dispute between you and The Higher We Rise, we are committed to resolving it through a fair and efficient process. Initially, we encourage informal resolution through direct communication. If a resolution cannot be reached, disputes will be settled through binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. This process is designed to be less formal than a court proceeding, while ensuring a fair outcome. Both parties agree to waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action.
