Kaplan Artists Group, LLC Terms of Use
Welcome to the Kaplan Artists Group, LLC service, which includes the www.colsmfv.com website and
mobile application (the “Service”). Kaplan Artists Group, LLC (“Kaplan Artists Group, LLC” or “us” or
“our”) operates the Service, which facilitates our users receiving offers from restaurants, service providers
and other vendors (“Merchants”) based on how much users are willing to spend with such Merchants. In
order to use our Service, you must agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, which are important and
contain many legal disclosures that you should read carefully. These Terms of Use are provided to govern
your use of our Service and to set expectations for using offers received through the Service.
These Terms of Use were last updated on February 26, 2015.
Acceptance of Terms of Use
By using our Service, you (“you” or, “End User”) agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, our Privacy
Policy, and any additional terms applicable to specific offers that are available to you or that you accept
(collectively, the “Terms of Use”). IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU MUST
IMMEDIATELY STOP ACCESSING THE SERVICE AND YOU MAY NOT ACCEPT OR USE ANY
OFFER PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICE.
1. Permitted Uses of the Service
The Service is designed to assist certain Merchants in making offers to End Users, and to assist End Users
in receiving and accepting offers from Merchants, for discounts on the Merchant’s goods and services
(“offers”). Offers may be accepted by End Users and exchanged for discounts, rebates or gift cards on
goods and services from the issuing Merchants, and may be subject to other specific terms of acceptance
(as further described below). As a condition of your use of this Service, you agree and warrant that:
• You are an individual person at least 18 years of age, and possess the authority to enter into a
binding legal contract; and
• Your use of this Service will at all times comply with these Terms of Use.
2. Creating an Account
If you create an account on our Service, the following terms apply:
• You may only create and hold one personal account that you are solely responsible for managing;
• You may only accept offers on the Service for your own use and enjoyment;
• You must safeguard your password and supervise the use of your account, and understand and
agree that you are responsible for your own use and the use of your account by anyone you allow
to access it;
• With respect to information you submit to the Service, all such information is accurate, true,
current and complete; and
• Your account is non-transferrable and may not be sold, combined or otherwise shared with any
other person.
If you violate any of these limitations we may terminate your account and, without limitation, you may
forfeit any pending, any unredeemed offers in your account.
3. Terms of the Offers
Offers you accept through our Service as an Kaplan Artists Group, LLC account holder are specific offers
that you accept from participating Merchants. The offers are redeemable for certain discounts, rebates or
gift cards on goods or services offered by the Merchant identified in the specific offer. The Merchant is
solely responsible for honoring and fulfilling the offer. The Merchant is the party making the offer and is
fully responsible for fulfilling all obligations created by the offer and for any and all injuries, illnesses,
damages, claims, liabilities and costs (“Liabilities”) you may suffer, directly or indirectly, in full or in part,
related to the use or redemption of (or the inability to use or redeem) an offer. You waive and release
Kaplan Artists Group, LLC and its subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees and
agents from any Liabilities arising from or related to any act or omission of a Merchant in connection with
your use of or inability to use an offer or the goods/services associated with such offer.
By accepting an offer, you agree to these Terms of Use and any additional terms and conditions associated
with the specific offer. Any additional or different terms and conditions associated with a specific offer will
be posted along with the offer. It is your responsibility to read the entire offer and be familiar with, and
accept, those offer-specific additional or different terms and conditions. In some instances, the offerspecific
terms and conditions will change the default conditions set forth in these Terms of Use. In the
event of a conflict between the offer-specific terms and these Terms of Use, the offer-specific terms will
control.
Kaplan Artists Group, LLC is merely a publisher of the Merchants’ offers contained on the Service, and
each Merchant is the sole issuer of its offers. If a Merchant refuses to honor any offer, Kaplan Artists
Group, LLC cannot be responsible for that Merchant’s conduct, and we will not refund or pay any amount
lost due to the Merchant not honoring the offer. Kaplan Artists Group, LLC will endeavor to work with the
Merchant on behalf of an End User to get the End User reimbursed for any amount of money lost due to the
Merchant’s failure to honor an offer. However, Kaplan Artists Group, LLC cannot control whether a
Merchant will honor its offers in every instance, and accordingly we cannot guarantee or be responsible for
any claims arising out of a Merchant’s refusal to honor or fulfill an offer.
4. Your Conduct on the Service
Your use of and interaction with the Service must be lawful and must comply with these Terms of Use at
all times. You will be responsible for all of your actions or inactions with respect to your use of the Service.
