Terms of Use

The service supports the California YMCA Youth & Government Model Legislature & Court program (“the program”), a program of the YMCA of Metropolitan Los Angeles (“the YMCA”). It is built, run and published on the program’s behalf by Blargo LLC. In these terms “we” means Blargo LLC and the YMCA.

• The service is only for people on the program’s roster: staff, advisors, volunteers and delegates. There is no public sign-up. Access, sign-in links and sign-in codes are issued through the program, your delegation or your advisor.
• Keep sign-in links, codes and passwords to yourself. Do not share them or let anyone else use your sign-in, and tell your advisor or mlcops@blargo.net if you think someone else has.
• If you are under 18, you use the service as part of the program, under your YMCA registration and with your parent or guardian’s permission. If your parent or guardian has not agreed to your taking part in the program, do not use the service.

Use the service only for the program. In particular, do not:

• look at, or try to get at, information about other people that your role does not give you;
• check in, mark attendance or act for someone else, or enter information you know is false;
• interfere with the service, probe or get around its security, overload it, or use automated tools against it;
• copy, resell or reverse-engineer it, except where the law says you may;
• use it for anything unlawful, harassing or harmful.

The YMCA and Youth & Government codes of conduct apply to what you do here, just as they do at an event.

The software behind the website and the app belongs to Blargo LLC. Program content — schedules, rosters, maps and materials — belongs to the YMCA or to whoever supplied it. The YMCA name and logos are trademarks of the YMCA and are used with its program; these terms give you no right to use them. You get a personal, limited, revocable permission to use the service for the program, and nothing more.

The service is provided as is and as available. We may change it, suspend it or withdraw it at any time. It may be slow, wrong, out of date or unavailable, especially at event venues where there is little or no signal, and what the app shows offline is only what it last saw. Always follow the instructions of program staff over anything the service shows.

These terms are about the website and the app only. They do not change any agreement, registration form or waiver between you, your family and the YMCA about taking part in the program.

If you are 18 or older and you misuse the service or break these terms, you agree to cover Blargo LLC and the YMCA for claims, losses and reasonable costs brought by others that result from it, to the extent the law allows. This paragraph does not apply to anyone under 18.

Access lasts only while the program gives it to you. We or the program may suspend or end anyone’s access at any time, including for breaking these terms, at the end of a program year, or when someone leaves the roster. You can stop using the service at any time; signing out of the app removes what it stored on your phone. The sections on ownership, warranties, liability, misuse claims and governing law keep applying after access ends.

These terms are between you and us, not Apple or Google. Their own standard terms apply to downloading the app from the App Store or Google Play. For the iPhone app in particular:

• Your permission to use the app is limited to Apple devices you own or control, as allowed by the App Store’s usage rules.
• Apple is not responsible for the app or its content, and has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it.
• If the app fails to meet any warranty that the law does not let us disclaim, you may tell Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any; the app is free. To the fullest extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for it.
• We, not Apple, are responsible for dealing with any claims about the app, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, consumer protection, privacy and claims that it infringes someone’s intellectual property.
• You confirm that you are not in a country under a US Government embargo or named as a “terrorist supporting” country, and are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and, once you accept them, may enforce them against you.

What we collect and how it is used is in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute about the service or these terms will be brought only in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you and we agree to those courts.

• If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, that part is limited as little as necessary and the rest stays in force.
• These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the service. Our not enforcing something is not a waiver of it.
• We may update these terms. When we do, we will post the new version here with a new effective date, and tell advisors and staff directly if the change is significant. Using the service after that means you accept the updated terms.
