Below is an overview of our TERMS OF USE for our “Service”, which means any website, application, or service Tweerl offers.

By using our Service, you are agreeing to our Terms of Use. The Terms of Use are a legally binding agreement between you and Tweerl.
If we determine that you have violated any part of the Terms of Use, we reserve the right to modify, suspend, or terminate your account at any time. We charge for certain aspects of our Service, and some of these fees are billed on a regular and recurring basis (unless disabled or canceled).

We take no responsibility for situations beyond our control and we cannot guarantee anything beyond the scope of our Service. You should use common sense and good judgment when interacting in the real world.
You are responsible for your “Content”, which is any information, material, or other content you create within our Service. All Content must comply with our Terms of Use.

Welcome to Tweerl, operated by Elevation Markets LLC (“us”, “we”, the “Company” or “Tweerl”).
Our Terms of Use, this “Agreement”, contains important information about your legal rights when using any platform that Tweerl provides, “Service”. Please read the following Agreement Carefully. It is your responsibility to ensure that you understand all of the terms contained in this Terms of Use Agreement.
1. Acceptance of Terms and Use Agreement
By creating an account and using our Service, you agree to be bound by the Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, etc.
If you do not accept and agree to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement, you will not be permitted to use our Service.
You MUST be 16 years or older to create an account and use our Service. By creating an account and using our Service, you are confirming that you are at least 16 years or older. Tweerl will not be responsible for verifying your age and will not take any responsibility for issues arising from a user that is under the age of intended users.
We reserve the right to make changes to this Agreement at any time. We may do this for a variety of reasons. The changes become effective when made available to all users.
The most recent version of this agreement will be available on tweerl.com at all times. The most recent version is always the version that applies.
If the changes include material changes to your rights or obligations, we will notify you of the changes in advance (unless prohibited by applicable law). This can include notification through Tweerl or via email.
If you continue to use Tweerl after the changes become effective, then you agree to the revised agreement.
2. Registration and Your Account
In order to use Tweerl, you must create an Account. To create your Account you may sign up with your phone number or, in some cases, by email address. This will be linked to the information you provide to us and it will be your sole way of signing in to use our Service.
Tweerl is not responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials that you use to sign up for the Service. And you are solely responsible for all activities that may occur under those credentials. If you think someone has gained access to your account, (contact us) immediately.
3. Purchases
When creating an Account, you may have to agree to our Subscription to continue to use the Service or, in some cases, to access additional features available only by subscribing.
The products and services available for purchase may be offered through the App Store, Google Play Store, carrier billing service, Tweerl direct billing, or other third party payment platforms authorized by Tweerl. If you choose to make a purchase to use our Service, you will be prompted to confirm your purchase with the applicable payment provider, and your method of payment (your card or a third party account such as Google Play Store or the App Store, your “Payment Method”) will be charged for the in app purchase at the prices displayed to you for the Service as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your payments, and you authorize Tweerl or third party accounts, as applicable, to charge you.
Some Subscriptions come with a period of time where you can use our Service for free (this is your “Free Trial”). At the end of your Free Trial, you will be billed as was specified within the Subscription you chose.
Most Subscriptions are set to auto-renew after any Free Trial period and at the beginning of every billing period. If you do not wish your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your Subscription, you will need to log in to your third party account (or Payment settings on Tweerl, in some cases) and follow the instructions to terminate or cancel your Subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your Account with us or if you have deleted our application from your phone.
Deleting your Account on Tweerl or deleting the Tweerl application does not terminate or cancel your subscription. Tweerl will retain all funds charged to your Payment Method until you terminate or cancel your subscription. Should you choose to cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term, and your subscription will not automatically renew after the term expires.
Tweerl offers its Service nationally in the United States, and our pricing varies by a number of factors. From time to time, we may offer promotional rates, which can vary based on region, length of subscription, and other factors. We also regularly test new features and payment options.
If there is a pricing change, you will be notified before your next billing period and you will have the option to cancel or agree to new Terms of Use. If you do not terminate your subscription by the next billing period or you continue to use our Service, you agree to the new pricing and Terms of Use.
Generally, all charges for purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. All refunds are at our sole discretion and we may make an exception if the Service or Subscription offering has changed significantly since the time of purchase and you do not agree to the new Terms of Use and changes in the Service.
For subscribers residing in Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio and Wisconsin, the terms below apply:
You may cancel your subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed. In the event that you die before the end of your subscription period, your estate shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription, which is allocable to the period after your death. In the event that you become disabled (such that you are unable to use the services of Tweerl) before the end of your subscription period, you shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription, which is allocable to the period after your disability by providing the company notice in the same manner as you request a refund as described below.
If you made a purchase using the Apple Store, refunds are handled by Apple, not Tweerl. To request a refund, go to the App Store, click on your Apple ID, select “Purchase history,” find the transaction and hit “Report Problem”. You can also submit a request at https://getsupport.apple.com.
If you subscribed using your Google Play Store account or through Tweerl directly: please contact customer support with your order number for the Google Play Store (you can find the order number in the order confirmation email or by logging in to Google Wallet) or Tweerl (you can find this on your confirmation email). You may also mail or deliver a signed and dated notice which states that you, the buyer, are canceling this Agreement, or words of similar effect. Please also include the email address or mobile number associated with your account along with your order number.
This notice shall be sent to: Tweerl, Attn: Cancellations, 1627 W Main Street, Suite 303, Bozeman, Montana, 59715.
4. Account Modification, Suspension, or Termination
You may modify, suspend, or terminate your account at any time, for any reason, by going to ‘Settings’ > ‘Subscriptions’ or by contacting us directly and requesting the action you wish. However, if you use a third party payment account, such as Apple’s App Store or iTunes Store, or the Google Play Store, you may need to manage in-app purchases through such an account to avoid additional billing charges.
Tweerl reserves the right to modify, suspend, or terminate users accounts at any time without notice if, at our sole discretion, we determine that you have violated any part of this agreement. When this occurs, we will notify you of the reasons for modification, suspension, or termination. Upon termination, you will not be entitled to any refund.

16. Dispute Resolution
In the unlikely event that we have a legal dispute, here is how the Parties agree to proceed, except where prohibited by applicable law.
Any Subsection in this Dispute Resolution Section that is prohibited by law shall not apply to the users residing in that jurisdiction.
16a. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS
If you are dissatisfied with our Service for any reason, please contact Tweerl Customer Service first so we can try to resolve your concerns without the need of outside assistance. If you choose to pursue a dispute, claim or controversy against Tweerl, these terms will apply. For purposes of this Dispute Resolution Process and Arbitration Procedures set forth in Section 16, “Tweerl” shall include our affiliates, contractors, consultants, employees, licensors, and service providers.
Tweerl values its relationship with you and appreciates the mutual benefit realized from informally resolving Disputes (as defined below). Before formally pursuing a Dispute in arbitration or small claims court, you agree to first send a detailed notice (“Notice”) to Elevation Markets LLC located at 1627 W Main St, Suite 307, Bozeman, MT, 59715, USA. If Tweerl has a Dispute with you, Tweerl agrees to first send a Notice to you at your most recent email address on file with us, or, if no email address is on file, other contact information associated with your account. Your Notice must contain all of the following information: (1) your full name; (2) information that enables Tweerl to identify your account, including a picture or screenshot of your profile, your address, mobile phone number, email address, and date of birth you used to register your account if any; and (3) a detailed description of your Dispute, including the nature and factual basis of your claim(s) and the relief you are seeking with a corresponding calculation of your alleged damages (if any). You must personally sign this Notice for it to be effective. Tweerl’s Notice must likewise set forth a detailed description of its Dispute, which shall include the nature and factual basis of its claim(s) and the relief it is seeking, with a corresponding calculation of our damages (if any). You and Tweerl agree to then negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the Dispute. As part of these good faith negotiations, if Tweerl requests a telephone conference with you to discuss your Dispute, you agree to personally participate, with your attorney if you wish to be represented by counsel. Likewise, if you request a telephone conference to discuss Tweerl’s Dispute with you, Tweerl agrees to have one representative participate. This informal process should lead to a resolution of the Dispute. However, if the Dispute is not resolved within 60 days after receipt of a fully completed Notice and the Parties have not otherwise mutually agreed to an extension of this informal dispute resolution time period, you or Tweerl may initiate an arbitration (subject to a Party’s right to elect small claims court as provided below).
Completion of this informal dispute resolution is a condition precedent to filing any demand for arbitration or small claims court action. Failure to do so is a breach of this Agreement. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines will be tolled while you and Tweerl engage in this informal dispute resolution process. Unless prohibited by applicable law, the arbitration provider, National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”), shall not accept or administer any demand for arbitration and shall administratively close any arbitration unless the Party bringing such demand for arbitration can certify in writing that the terms and conditions of this informal dispute resolution process were fully satisfied. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have authority to enforce this provision and to enjoin any arbitration proceeding or small claims court action.
16b. INDIVIDUAL RELIEF: CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, YOU AND TWEERL EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES IN COURT IN FAVOR OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT AS PROVIDED ABOVE). YOU AND TWEERL EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER OR OTHERWISE TO SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING ANY CURRENTLY PENDING ACTIONS AGAINST TWEERL. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS. THE ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD THE SAME RELIEF AVAILABLE IN COURT PROVIDED THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY ONLY AWARD FINAL RELIEF (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE OR DECLARATORY RELIEF) IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE FINAL RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD FINAL RELIEF FOR, AGAINST, OR ON BEHALF OF ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS. IF A COURT DETERMINES THAT ANY OF THESE PROHIBITIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH ARE UNENFORCEABLE AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF (SUCH AS A REQUEST FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF), AND ALL APPEALS OF THAT DECISION ARE EXHAUSTED OR THE DECISION IS OTHERWISE FINAL, THEN YOU AND TWEERL AGREE THAT THAT PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF SHALL PROCEED IN COURT BUT SHALL BE STAYED PENDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION OF THE REMAINING CLAIMS FOR RELIEF THAT YOU HAVE BROUGHT. IF THIS SPECIFIC PARAGRAPH IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION (EXCEPT FOR THE JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND THE INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS) SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
16c. DISPUTE RESOLUTION THROUGH ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT
Any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Tweerl (that is not resolved informally by Tweerl Customer Service or as provided under subsection 16a above) that arises from or relates in any way to this Agreement (including any alleged breach of this Agreement), the Service, or our relationship with you (collectively, “Dispute”), shall be exclusively resolved through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION except as specifically provided otherwise in this Dispute Resolution Section. “Dispute” as used in this Agreement shall have the broadest possible meaning and include claims that arose before the existence of this or any prior Agreement and claims that arise during the term of this Agreement or after the termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Tweerl may elect to have an individual claim heard in small claims court. If the request to proceed in small claims court is made after an arbitration has been initiated but before an arbitrator has been appointed, such arbitration shall be administratively closed. Any controversy over the small claims court’s jurisdiction shall be determined by the small claims court. All other issues (except as otherwise provided herein) are exclusively for the Arbitrator to decide, including but not limited to scope and enforceability of this Dispute Resolution Section, as well as any request to proceed in small claims court that is made after an arbitrator has been appointed. If you or Tweerl challenges the small claims court election in your Dispute, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the small claims court election is unenforceable, then such election shall be severed from this Agreement as to your Dispute. However, such court determination shall not be considered or deemed binding with respect to Tweerl’s other contracting parties.
Any court proceeding to enforce this Dispute Resolution Section 16, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, must be commenced in accordance with Section 18. In the event Dispute Resolution Section 16 is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Tweerl (except for small claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Dallas County, Texas. You hereby irrevocably consent to those courts’ exercise of personal jurisdiction over you for such purposes and waive any claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.
16d. INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND MASS ARBITRATION PROTOCOLS
This subsection 16d applies to Disputes that are submitted to NAM after fully completing the informal Notice and Dispute resolution process described in subsection 16a above and when no small claims court election is made by either Party. Any arbitration between you and Tweerl shall be administered by NAM in accordance with NAM’s operative Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (the “NAM Rules”) in effect at the time any demand for arbitration is filed with NAM, as modified by this Dispute Resolution Section 16. For a copy of the NAM Rules, please visit https://www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms or contact NAM’s National Processing Center at 990 Stewart Avenue, 1st Floor, Garden City, NY 11530 and email address commercial@namadr.com. If NAM is unable or unwilling to perform its duties under this Agreement, the Parties shall mutually agree on an alternative administrator that will replace NAM and assume NAM’s role consistent with this Agreement. If the Parties are unable to agree, they will petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an administrator that will assume NAM’s duties under this Agreement.
The Parties agree that the following procedures will apply to any Arbitrations initiated under this Dispute Resolution Section:
Nevada law and the Federal Arbitration Act will apply to any Dispute (except where prohibited by law).
To the fullest extent allowable by law, the laws of Nevada, U.S.A., without regard to its conflict of laws rules, shall apply to any Dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Service, or your relationship with Tweerl. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Dispute Resolution Process set forth in Section 15 above shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
To the fullest extent allowable by law, any claims that are not arbitrated for any reason must be litigated in Clark County, Nevada (except for claims filed in small claims court).
Except where prohibited by law and except for claims that are heard in a small claims court as set forth in Section 15, any claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement, to the Service, or to your relationship with Tweerl that for whatever reason are not required to be arbitrated or filed in small claims court, will be litigated exclusively in the federal or state courts located in Clark County, Nevada, U.S.A. You and Tweerl consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction of courts in the State of Nevada and waive any claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.
You agree, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Tweerl, our affiliates, and their and our respective officers, directors, agents, contractors, consultants and employees from and against any and all complaints, demands, claims, damages, losses, costs, liabilities and expenses, including attorney’s fees, due to, arising out of, or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Service, your Content, or your breach of this Agreement.
This Agreement, which includes the Privacy Policy and any terms disclosed to you if you purchase or have purchased additional features, products or services we offer on the Service, contains the entire agreement between you and Tweerl regarding your relationship with Tweerl and the use of the Service, with the following exception: anyone who opted out of the retroactive application of Section 16 is still subject to and bound by any prior agreements to arbitrate with Tweerl as well as this agreement to arbitrate on a going forward basis. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The failure of Tweerl to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that your Tweerl account is non-transferable and all of your rights to your account and its Content terminate upon the event of your death. No agency, partnership, joint venture, fiduciary or other special relationship or employment is created as a result of this Agreement and you may not make any representations on behalf of or bind Tweerl in any manner.
