1. Acceptance of These Terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and Aetherion LLC, operating under the Nexus brand (“Nexus,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). They govern your access to and use of thenexussalon.com, ai.thenexussalon.com, Nexus AI, coaching, mentorship, communities, courses, digital products, live sessions, recordings, downloads, websites, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).
By accessing the Services, creating an account, checking an agreement box, purchasing, or continuing to use the Services, you agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
2. Nexus Services
Nexus provides educational programs, AI-assisted tools, business and personal-development coaching, group mentorship, communities, courses, digital resources, and related support intended to help users discover a meaningful passion, shape it into a business direction, and grow a business.
The Services are educational and collaborative. They are not a franchise, employment opportunity, agency relationship, partnership, joint venture, fiduciary relationship, investment product, or guaranteed business opportunity.
3. Eligibility and Accounts
- You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter a contract.
- You must provide accurate information and keep account information reasonably current.
- You are responsible for protecting your email, password, login codes, devices, sessions, and share links.
- You may not share an account, impersonate another person, create an account for someone without authorization, or use another person’s access.
- You must notify us promptly of suspected unauthorized access.
Nexus may use membership records and connected service providers to determine whether an account receives free, paid, administrative, course, community, or coaching access.
4. Nexus AI and Beta Features
Nexus AI and other features may be offered as a beta, preview, test, or developing service. Beta features may contain errors, incomplete workflows, changing limits, delays, interruptions, or features that are added, changed, reset, or removed.
You should keep independent copies of information that is important to you. We may impose usage, storage, generation, rate, membership, or capacity limits and may adjust those limits as the service develops.
5. Coaching, Mentorship, and Your Participation
Coaching and mentorship depend on honest participation, independent judgment, implementation, experimentation, and circumstances outside our control. You remain solely responsible for your decisions, actions, business, finances, legal compliance, customer relationships, and results.
Coaching does not create a therapist-patient, attorney-client, accountant-client, financial-adviser, fiduciary, or other licensed professional relationship. Nexus may recommend that you seek qualified professional help when a decision requires specialized advice.
6. Payments, Subscriptions, and Cancellation
Prices, billing frequency, access period, and included services are shown at checkout or in a written offer. By purchasing a recurring membership, you authorize the payment processor to charge the stated amount at the stated interval until canceled.
- Nexus monthly membership: Unless a checkout states otherwise, the current Nexus membership renews monthly at the price shown at checkout.
- Cancellation: You may cancel a subscription by using an available account control or contacting [email protected]. Cancellation stops future renewals and generally takes effect at the end of the paid billing period.
- Price changes: We may change future pricing with advance notice. A change will not apply retroactively to a completed billing period.
- Failed payments: Access may be restricted or suspended if a payment fails, is reversed, is disputed, or becomes overdue.
- Taxes and fees: You are responsible for applicable taxes and charges disclosed at checkout.
Product-specific order forms, proposals, or coaching agreements may include additional payment, scheduling, cancellation, or access terms. If they conflict with these general Terms, the more specific written terms control for that purchase.
7. Refunds
Refund terms shown on a product’s checkout page, sales page, proposal, or written agreement control that purchase.
For the standard Nexus monthly membership, give Nexus an honest try. If you are unhappy, contact us to request a refund of your most recent $100 membership payment. This guarantee applies to the most recent payment only and does not automatically refund prior months.
Other courses, digital products, events, private coaching, or special offers may use a different refund policy disclosed before purchase. Nothing in these Terms limits a non-waivable right provided by applicable law.
8. Group Sessions, Recordings, and Replays
Group coaching, mastermind sessions, workshops, and community events may be recorded and made available to authorized members. By participating after notice that a session is being recorded, you consent to the recording of your name, voice, image, chat messages, and contributions for delivery of the replay and related member education.
You may keep your camera off, use reasonable display-name controls, or refrain from sharing sensitive information. Do not record, copy, publish, distribute, or commercially use another participant’s statements or a Nexus replay without written permission.
We will not use your private coaching statement as a public advertisement or testimonial without permission, except for material you intentionally post publicly.
9. AI-Generated Outputs
Nexus AI outputs are educational suggestions, drafts, hypotheses, reflections, and possible directions. AI can produce inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, generic, biased, inconsistent, or unsuitable results.
- Review and edit all outputs before relying on or publishing them.
- Independently verify facts, legal claims, market claims, competitor research, financial assumptions, and important decisions.
- Do not treat outputs as legal, medical, mental-health, tax, accounting, financial, investment, employment, or other professional advice.
- Do not use Nexus AI as the sole basis for a high-stakes decision.
- No output guarantees market demand, intellectual-property clearance, originality, profitability, or legal compliance.
10. Your Content, Profiles, and Sharing
You retain ownership of content you submit, including answers, business information, posts, messages, drafts, and materials. You grant Nexus a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, copy, process, modify for technical formatting, display, and transmit that content as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, support, and improve the Services and produce the outputs you request.
You represent that you have the right to submit the content and that it does not violate law, confidentiality obligations, intellectual-property rights, privacy rights, or the rights of another person.
If you create a public or token-based profile link, anyone with the active link may view the selected information. You are responsible for reviewing the sharing scope before activating the link. Revocation cannot retrieve copies already saved by another person.
12. Prohibited Use
- Attempt unauthorized access, bypass limits, probe security, reverse engineer protected systems, or interfere with service operation.
- Use automation, scraping, bots, credential sharing, or bulk requests except through an expressly authorized interface.
- Submit malware, unlawful data, stolen information, or content designed to manipulate or exploit the Services.
- Use the Services to deceive, defraud, impersonate, exploit, discriminate, or violate another person’s rights.
- Copy, resell, white-label, publish, or recreate Nexus AI, proprietary prompts, scoring methods, journey structures, course materials, or member-only content without written permission.
- Use Nexus materials to train, benchmark, or build a competing product or dataset without written permission.
13. Nexus Intellectual Property
The Services—including the Nexus name and branding, websites, interface, code, graphics, videos, course materials, worksheets, prompts, system instructions, scoring methods, journey structure, compilations, and original written content—are owned by Nexus, Aetherion LLC, or applicable licensors and are protected by intellectual-property and unfair-competition laws.
We grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to use purchased or authorized materials for your own personal and business-development purposes. No ownership transfers to you.
If you submit feedback or suggestions, you grant Nexus permission to use them without restriction or compensation, provided we do not publicly identify you as the source without permission.
14. Third-Party Services and Links
The Services depend on third parties such as hosting, AI, CRM, email, community, video, scheduling, payment, and analytics providers. Third-party products and websites are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. Nexus is not responsible for third-party content, security, availability, pricing, decisions, or performance.
15. Availability and Service Changes
We may update, suspend, limit, replace, or discontinue any feature or part of the Services. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, preservation of every feature, compatibility with every device, or permanent availability of any beta function, provider, recording, community, or course.
We will use reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary disruption and to provide notice when a material change affects an active paid service, but emergencies, security issues, provider outages, legal requirements, or technical failures may require immediate action.
16. Suspension, Termination, and Account Deletion
You may stop using Nexus at any time. Depending on available account controls, you may sign out while retaining saved data or request permanent deletion.
We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access for nonpayment, abuse, security risk, legal requirements, fraud, harmful conduct, repeated disruption, or violation of these Terms. Where reasonable, we may provide notice and an opportunity to correct the issue.
Permanent deletion may not remove information we must retain for legal, accounting, transaction, fraud-prevention, dispute, backup, or provider obligations.
17. Disclaimers of Warranties
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” NEXUS DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, AND RESULTS.
We do not warrant that the Services will be error-free, uninterrupted, secure, complete, or suitable for your circumstances, or that AI outputs, coaching, content, or recommendations will produce a particular outcome.
18. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEXUS, AETHERION LLC, PAUL LINGREN, AND THEIR MEMBERS, MANAGERS, CONTRACTORS, PROVIDERS, AND AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, OR CUSTOMERS; OR COSTS OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO NEXUS DURING THE THREE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so portions of this section may not apply to you.
19. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Nexus, Aetherion LLC, Paul Lingren, and their contractors, providers, and affiliates from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the Services, your content, your business or customer activities, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of another person’s rights.
20. Informal Resolution, Arbitration, and Class-Action Waiver
Before filing a claim, you and Nexus agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally. Send written notice describing the dispute and requested resolution to [email protected]. The parties will allow at least 30 days for informal resolution.
Except for eligible small-claims matters, requests for emergency injunctive relief, or claims involving misuse of intellectual property or unauthorized access, any unresolved dispute will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable Consumer Arbitration Rules. Arbitration may be conducted remotely unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.
YOU AND NEXUS AGREE TO BRING CLAIMS ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing [email protected] within 30 days after you first accept these Terms. Your notice must include your name, account email, and an unambiguous statement that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect the rest of these Terms.
This section is intended to be interpreted and enforced under the Federal Arbitration Act. If a portion is unenforceable, it will be severed to the minimum extent necessary, except that if the class-action waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim must proceed in court rather than class arbitration.
21. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of Colorado, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where federal law controls. Any court proceeding permitted under these Terms must be brought in a state or federal court with jurisdiction in El Paso County, Colorado, and the parties consent to that venue.
22. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms to reflect changes in the Services, providers, business, or law. The effective date will be updated, and we may provide additional notice of material changes. Continued use after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
If any provision is invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. A delay in enforcement is not a waiver. These Terms, together with applicable checkout terms, product agreements, and incorporated policies, form the complete agreement regarding the Services.
