Updated February 15, 2023

    Thank you for visiting the Terms of Service (the “Terms of Service” or “Terms”) of Venelite LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (referred to herein as “VENELITE”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”). The Terms of Service are applicable to Company as well as any of its current or future subsidiary companies, or any successors or assigns (in each, to the extent applicable, referred to herein as an “Affiliate”). Unless otherwise noted herein, “Company” includes all Affiliates as applicable. The Terms of Service are important and affect your legal rights, so please read them and our Privacy Policy and other terms referenced in this document carefully.

  1. Introduction

    This is a legal agreement between you (referred to herein as the “User”, “you” or “your”) and Company. The Terms of Service govern the activities and information available on our website, including our investment services and the content, services, and/or products provided through our Site and Mobile Application (as defined below) (collectively, the “Services”). We maintain these Services to permit certain eligible persons to independently connect with potential investment opportunities. By accessing or using our website at www.venelite.com, including any subdomain or successor site thereof (collectively, the “Site”), or by downloading our Mobile Application (collectively, the “App”) through your device’s respective “app store”, you affirmatively acknowledge that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by the Terms of Service, regardless of whether you are a Registered User (see defined below). Your agreement with us includes these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy (together, the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, the terms of services and privacy policies of all third party providers / partners of the Company, including Dwolla’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, and any additional terms that you agree to from time to time, are referred to together as the “Agreements”). If you wish to review the terms of the Agreements, the effective version of the Agreements can be found or linked to on our Site. If you do not agree with (or cannot comply with) the Agreements, then you may not use or access the Services. Further, in the event you violate the Agreements or violate any other agreement between you and us, the Company may terminate your User Account (defined below), delete your User Account and any content or information that you have posted with the Services and prohibit you from using or accessing the Services (or any portion, aspect or feature of the Services or the Site), at any time in its sole discretion, with or without notice. USERS AGREE NOT TO DO ANYTHING TO CREATE A FALSE IMPRESSION THAT THEY ARE ENDORSED BY, EMPLOYED BY, OR ACTING AS AN AGENT TO VENELITE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, BY INAPPROPRIATELY USING ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OF VENELITE. USERS ACT EXCLUSIVELY ON THEIR OWN BEHALF AND FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT, AND NOT ON BEHALF OF VENELITE. BY ACCESSING, BROWSING, AND/OR OTHERWISE USING THE SERVICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF SERVICE, ALL OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES POSTED ON THE SITE, AND EACH OF THE AGREEMENTS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY SUCH AGREEMENTS, THEN YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY CEASE ACCESSING, BROWSING OR OTHERWISE USING THE SITE, THE APP AND THE SERVICES.

  2. Modification to the Terms and Services

    We may make changes to these Terms from time to time, at our sole discretion. If we do this, we will post the changed Terms on the Site and will indicate at the top of this page the date the Terms were last revised. It is your responsibility to check the Terms periodically for changes. You understand and agree that your continued use of the Services after we have made any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new version of the Terms. The Services we offer are designed for our Registered Users (defined below) to gain access to investment opportunities. The Services we offer may change, be modified, and/or be discontinued, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion.

  3. Eligibility; Registration of User Account

    The Services are not available to persons who are not at least the legal age of majority in the jurisdiction in which they reside or are located. In the United States, the legal age of majority is 18 years old. If you reside in a jurisdiction which restricts the use of the Services because of age, or restricts the ability to enter agreements such as this one due to age, you must abide by such age limits and you must not use the Services. If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company, business or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity, its end users and its affiliates to this Agreement, in which case the terms “you” or “your” shall refer to such entity, its end users and its affiliates. If you do not have such authority, or if you do not agree with this Agreement, you must not accept this Agreement and may not use the Services. In order to access certain Services, you must meet certain criteria and register to create an account (each a “User Account”; and each holder of a User Account is referred to as a “Registered User”). By registering and creating a User Account, you represent and warrant that you are legally entitled to register a User Account and have met all requirements set forth by the Company. All or a portion of our Services may be available only to certain authorized, qualified Registered Users. As a result thereof, such portions of our Services and the Site may not be available in all jurisdictions or to all Users. Your use of the Services or the Site constitutes your affirmative acknowledgment that you are not in violation of the laws of your country of residence and a waiver of the protection of any local non-U.S. laws. To open a User Account you must meet and initially self-certify the following criteria and represent and warrant that you meet the definition as an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (such persons being “Accredited Investors”). Further, you must meet the following criteria and represent and warrant that you: (1) are not currently restricted from registering for, using, or accessing the Services under the applicable local or state laws of your jurisdiction of residence or are not otherwise prohibited from having a User Account; (2) are not a competitor of VENELITE nor are you using the Services for reasons that are in competition with VENELITE; (3) will only maintain one User Account at any given time; and (4) agree to provide at your cost all equipment, software, and internet access necessary to use the Services.

  4. Association with a Broker-Dealer

    You certify that you are not employed by or registered, or otherwise, affiliated, with a broker-dealer or other employer whose consent is required to open and maintain a User Account.

  5. Accredited Investors; Qualified Purchaser; Qualified Client

    To invest in offerings conducted under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the User must be an Accredited Investor. In some cases, you may be required to provide supporting documents to VENELITE and/or to individual issuers that provide proof that you are an Accredited Investor. Such authorization may require completion of an Accredited Investor questionnaire and satisfactory background information screening. Your failure to provide any information and documentation requested to confirm your status as an Accredited Investor will be cause for VENELITE to immediately discontinue your User Account by preventing your access to the Services. To qualify as an Accredited Investor, individuals must be an Accredited Investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As defined therein, Accredited Investors generally include: (i) Any individual whose net worth, or joint net worth with his or her spouse exceeds $1,000,000, not including the value of such individual’s primary residence; and (ii) any individual whose income exceeded $200,000 in each of the two most recent years, or whose joint income with his or her spouse exceeded $300,000 in each of those years, and who reasonably expects an income reaching the same level in the current year. In some cases, you may be required to provide supporting documents to VENELITE and/or to individual issuers that provide proof that you are a Qualified Purchaser. To qualify as a Qualified Purchaser, individuals must be a Qualified Purchaser as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. As defined therein, Qualified Purchasers generally include any natural person who owns not less than $5,000,000 in investments. In some cases, you may be required to provide supporting documents to VENELITE and/or to individual issuers that provide proof that you are a Qualified Client. To qualify as a Qualified Client, individuals must be a Qualified Purchaser as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. As defined therein, Qualified Purchasers generally include: (i) an individual that, after contracting with the fund, has at least $1 million under the management of the applicable investment adviser, (ii) an individual that the manager of the applicable fund reasonably believes, immediately after contracting with the fund, has a net worth greater than $2 million (jointly with a spouse if applicable), excluding the value of the individual's primary residence and any indebtedness thereto, or (iii) an individual that the adviser reasonably believes is a Qualified Purchaser (see above).

  6. Non. U.S. Persons

    Persons who are residents outside of the United States are allowed access to the Services only if such access does not violate the laws of their country of residence. Our Services that relate to the viewing of actual investment opportunities or to making investments in the securities offered therein may not be used by any person or entity in any jurisdiction where the provision or use thereof would be contrary to applicable laws, rules or regulations of any governmental authority or where VENELITE is not authorized to provide such information or Services.

  7. Investment Matters

    IF A USER MAKES AN INVESTMENT THROUGH AN INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SITE OR THE APP, THE USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE USER HAS REVIEWED ALL RISKS AND THAT SUCH INVESTMENT IS MADE AT SUCH USER’S OWN DISCRETION. ALL SUCH USERS UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT CHANCE OF A COMPLETE LOSS OF THEIR INVESTMENT. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS, AND ANY EXPECTED RETURNS OR HYPOTHETICAL PROJECTIONS MAY NOT REFLECT ACTUAL FUTURE PERFORMANCE. FURTHERMORE, PAST RETURNS MAY REFLECT THE PERFORMANCE OF ASSETS FOR A FINITE TIME, OR DURING A PERIOD OF EXTREME MARKET ACTIVITY. ALL INVESTMENTS INVOLVE RISK AND MAY RESULT IN PARTIAL OR TOTAL LOSS. There can be no assurance that an investment mix or any projected or actual performance shown on the Site or the App will lead to the expected results shown or perform in any predictable manner. It should not be assumed that investors will experience returns in the future, if any, comparable to those shown or that any or all investors on the Site experienced such returns.

  8. Securities Law Disclosures

    You are urged to review our full disclosure and, the extent applicable, any offering circulars with respect to investment opportunities made available through the Site.

You agree to (a) immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your password or User Account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your User Account at the end of each session when accessing the Services. You agree that you are responsible for all activities that occur under your User Account, whether or not you know about them. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this section.

  10. Removal / Suspension of Your User Account; Accuracy of User Information

    We reserve the right to remove and/or suspend your User Account at any time without notice, with or without cause (in each case, a “Removal”).

You must not use the Services to “stalk” or otherwise harass another User or any other person or entity. You must not impersonate any person or entity or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with a person or entity. If you inappropriately use your User Account, we may remove and/or suspend it. You agree that the Company will not be liable to you or any third party for any Removal of your User Account.

As part of doing business with VENELITE, you must also consent that we provide you with certain disclosures electronically, either via our Services or to the email address you provide to us. By agreeing to the Terms of Service, you agree to receive electronically all documents, communications, notices, contracts, and agreements, including any IRS Form 1099 or other tax forms, schedules or information statements, arising from or relating to your registration as a User, any investments you may make, your use of these Services, and the servicing of any investment you may make (each, a "Disclosure"), from VENELITE, or any service provider we may use. An IRS Form 1099 refers to any Form 1099 or other Form, Schedule or information statement, including corrections of such documents, required to be provided pursuant to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations and that may be provided electronically (each, an "IRS Form 1099"). The decision to do business with VENELITE electronically is yours. This document informs you of your rights concerning Disclosures. Your consent to receive Disclosures and transact business electronically, and our agreements to do so, applies to any transactions to which such Disclosures relate, between you and VENELITE or between you and any service provider we may use. Your consent will remain in effect for so long as you are a Registered User and, if you are no longer a Registered User, will continue until such a time as all Disclosures relevant to transactions that occurred while you were a Registered User have been made. You may not withdraw such consent as long as you have any outstanding investments made through our Services. You also expressly consent to receiving calls and messages, including auto-dialed and pre- recorded message calls, and SMS messages (including text messages) from us, our affiliates, marketing partners, agents and others calling at their request or on their behalf, at any telephone numbers that you have provided or may provide in the future (including any cellular telephone numbers). Your cellular or mobile telephone provider will charge you according to the type of plan you carry. If you are accessing our Service and the Disclosures electronically via a mobile device (such as a smartphone, tablet, iPad, etc.), in addition to the above requirements you must make sure that you have software on your mobile device that allows you to print and save the Disclosures presented to you during the application process. These applications can be found for most mobile devices in the device’s respective app store. If you do not have these capabilities on your mobile device, please access our site through a device that provides these capabilities.

    By visiting or using the Site and/or the Services, you agree that the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any principles of conflict of laws that would require or permit the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction, will govern these Terms of Service. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by you and us, any dispute arising out of or relating to the Terms of Service, or any breach thereof, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, or such arbitration body as required by law, rule or regulation, and final judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language before a single arbitrator in the San Francisco, California (unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion). Such arbitration must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either we or you may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive relief without breach of this arbitration provision.

  31. Indemnification

    You agree to indemnify and hold us and our employees, representatives, agents, attorneys, affiliates, directors, employees, officers, managers and shareholders (the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from any damage, loss, cost or expense (including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred in connection with any third-party claim, demand or action (“Claim”) brought or asserted against any of the indemnified parties: alleging facts or circumstances that would constitute a breach of any provision of the Agreements by you; arising from, related to, or connected with your comments, your use of the Service, or your violation of any rights of another. If you are obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this provision, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, control the disposition of any claim at your sole cost and expense. Without limitation of the foregoing, you may not settle, compromise or in any other manner dispose of any claim without our express written consent.
