Upon receiving this number, an individual becomes a Member eligible to earn Rewards Program points or credits. Members may redeem accumulated points or credits at any time.

- Participation in the Rewards Program is subject to the Program Rules, rules, regulations, policies and procedures that Authors A.I. may, in its discretion, adopt from time to time.

- Authors A.I. and its partners have the right to change, limit, modify or cancel the Rewards Program Rules, Rewards and reward levels at any time, with or without notice, even though such changes may affect the value of points or credits, or the ability to obtain certain Rewards.

In accumulating points or credits, Members may not rely upon the continued availability of any Reward or Reward level or category.
- Additionally, Authors A.I. has the right to terminate the Rewards Program by providing written notice (including online or email notifications) to its Members one month in advance of Rewards Program termination. In that event, the right to earn points and credits and redeem Rewards may end one month after notification, no matter the extent of Member participation in the Rewards Program. Authors A.I. may terminate the Rewards Program earlier in whole or in part in any jurisdiction(s) if required to do so by applicable law.
- POINTS EXPIRATION POLICY: Members must remain active in the Rewards Programs to retain points they accumulate. Notification (by email or other electronic communication) will be provided at least seven days in advance before a Member’s Account is suspended. Once points have been forfeited, the points cannot be reinstated, but a Member can earn new points, unless that Member’s account is deactivated too.
- Authors A.I. reserves the right to reject applications for Membership, to revoke, cancel or suspend any Rewards Program Membership, Reward and/or any and all unredeemed points or credits, or take other action at its discretion, at any time with immediate effect and without written notice or liability to any Member, if Authors A.I. believes: (a) the Member has (1) violated any of the Program Rules, (2) failed to pay any bills or accounts due to Authors A.I. or a participating third-party partner, (3) acted in a manner inconsistent with applicable law, regulations or ordinances, (4) engaged in any misconduct or wrongdoing in connection with the Rewards Program, including without limitation, involving point credits, Reward use, or Member benefits, or (5) engaged in abusive, fraudulent, inappropriate, or hostile conduct in connection with the Rewards Program, Authors A.I., its employees or partners; or (b) Authors A.I.’s provision of the Rewards Program and/or any associated benefits (including but not limited to points or credits) to Member may violate any applicable laws to which Authors A.I. is subject from time to time.
- Nothing in these Program Rules will limit Authors A.I. from exercising any legal rights or remedies that it may have.
- VOID WHERE PROHIBITED: Membership in the Rewards Program, the awarding of points and credits and the redemption of Rewards Program Certificates are automatically void where prohibited by applicable law.
- Members may be provided with the ability to use usernames, passwords, or other codes or devices to gain access to restricted portions (“access codes”) of partner websites. The content contained in such restricted areas is confidential to said partner, and is provided to the Member for his or her personal use only. Authors A.I. reserves the right to prohibit the use of such access codes by the Member or on his or her behalf by third parties where Authors A.I. determines that such use interferes with the websites’ operation or results in commercial benefits for other entities to Authors A.I.’s detriment.
- These are the complete Program Rules applicable to Members who earn points or credits. Authors A.I. has the sole discretion to interpret and apply the Program Rules, and all questions or disputes regarding these Program Rules will be resolved by Authors A.I. in its sole discretion.

12. Indemnification
You agree to defend and indemnify Authors A.I. and its affiliates and any of their officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any claims, causes of action, demands, recoveries, losses, damages, fines, penalties or other costs or expenses of any kind or nature including but not limited to reasonable legal and accounting fees, brought by third parties as a result of your breach of these Terms or the documents referenced herein; your violation of any law or the rights of a third party; or your use of the Site or Services.
13. Dispute resolution
For any dispute you have with Authors A.I., you agree to first contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally and amicably. If Authors A.I. has not been able to resolve the dispute with you informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect for the AAA, except as provided herein. Unless you and Authors A.I. agree otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts for matters related to data security, intellectual property or unauthorized access to the Service.
ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND AUTHORS A.I. ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any principles that provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. If for any reason a claim cannot proceed in arbitration as per Section IX of these Terms, we each agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida.
15. General provisions
