Terms & Conditions

Last updated August 9, 2026

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern access to and use of the IVANI website, digital publication, waitlist, membership services, and related offerings operated by IVANI Media. By accessing or using the services, you agree to these Terms.

1. About IVANI

IVANI is an editorial publication and private membership. We publish digital editorial content and curated resources. Membership may include access to digital archives and member-only materials. A quarterly print magazine and related physical products may be offered as part of membership or as separate subscriptions.

Selected Journal content may be available to the public. Member-only materials require an active membership (or other authorized access) once membership commerce is enabled.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to create an account, join the waitlist for membership purposes, or purchase a membership. By using the services, you represent that you meet these requirements and that the information you provide is accurate.

3. Accounts and Security

Certain features require registration. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it current. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly at our contact email if you suspect unauthorized use. We may suspend or terminate accounts that appear compromised, fraudulent, or in violation of these Terms.

4. Waitlist

During the pre-launch period, visitors may join a waitlist to receive information about membership opening and the inaugural issue. Joining the waitlist does not create a paid membership, guarantee acceptance, or reserve inventory. Waitlist communications are subject to this Privacy Policy.

5. Membership and Purchases

When paid memberships or print subscriptions become available, additional commercial terms will apply, including those set out in the Membership Terms and Refund Policy. Pricing, billing intervals, included benefits, and shipping regions will be disclosed at the point of purchase.

If automatic renewal is enabled for a subscription product, renewals will be charged at the then-current rate unless you cancel before the renewal date in accordance with the cancellation instructions provided at purchase or in your account.

6. Intellectual Property and Digital Content License

All editorial content, text, photography, design, graphics, logos, trademarks, compilations, and other materials on the IVANI platform are owned by IVANI or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

Membership or other authorized access grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and view content for private, non-commercial use. This license does not transfer ownership of any intellectual property.

You may not copy, reproduce, redistribute, republish, scrape, crawl, download in bulk, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display, commercially exploit, or otherwise use IVANI content without prior written permission, except for limited personal reading and sharing of publicly available links where expressly permitted.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the services in any manner that violates applicable law or these Terms.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to accounts, systems, or member-only materials.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the website or related infrastructure.
  • Use automated means to extract content at scale without written authorization.
  • Misrepresent your identity or affiliation.
  • Upload or transmit malware, spam, or harmful code.
  • Harass, abuse, or harm others in connection with the services.

8. User Correspondence and Submissions

If you send us letters, pitches, feedback, or other unsolicited materials, you grant IVANI a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, and consider such materials for editorial or operational purposes, unless we agree otherwise in writing. We are under no obligation to publish, return, or respond to unsolicited submissions.

9. Third-Party Services and Links

The services may reference or link to third-party websites, tools, or processors (including payment and analytics providers). We are not responsible for third-party content, policies, or practices. Your use of third-party services is governed by their terms.

10. Disclaimers

Editorial content is provided for cultural, informational, and educational purposes. It does not constitute legal, financial, investment, medical, or other professional advice. See our Disclaimer for additional detail.

THE SERVICES AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. IVANI DISCLAIMS WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, EXCEPT WHERE SUCH DISCLAIMERS ARE PROHIBITED.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IVANI AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IVANI’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO IVANI FOR THE MEMBERSHIP OR PRODUCT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100) IF YOU HAVE NOT MADE A PAYMENT.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted.

12. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless IVANI and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your misuse of the services, violation of these Terms, or infringement of any third-party right.

13. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue a service. You may stop using the services at any time. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnity) will survive.

14. Changes to the Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be posted with an updated date and, where appropriate, communicated to account holders. Continued use after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes acceptance, except where additional consent is required by law.

15. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of [Governing Law / Jurisdiction — to be confirmed], without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence provide otherwise.

Before filing a formal dispute, you agree to contact us and attempt to resolve the matter informally. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, the parties agree that exclusive venue shall be the courts located in the jurisdiction designated above, subject to any non-waivable consumer rights.
