Terms of Service

These Terms form a binding agreement between you and 5th Row, Inc. (“5th Row,” “we,” “us”). You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract under United States law to become a member. You accept these Terms when you create an account, submit a membership application, or otherwise use our services.

[TBD: Add effective-date language and any electronic-signature acknowledgement required by counsel.]

[TBD: Describe each membership tier (Writers Group, Director's Circle, Founding Member), the application/approval process for application-based tiers, eligibility criteria (age, jurisdiction), and the limits on transfer/sharing of a membership.]

[TBD: Confirm Director's Circle is application-based and may be declined at 5th Row's discretion. State that no charge is made until approval.]

Membership fees are quoted and charged in United States Dollars (USD) and are billed annually unless we tell you otherwise at checkout. Director's Circle is $3,195/year; other tiers are priced on the signup page. Applicable taxes are added where required.

Memberships auto-renew on the anniversary of your activation date using the payment method on file. You can turn off auto-renewal at any time from your dashboard. If a renewal charge fails, we will retry for a limited window and notify you by email before suspending member benefits.

[TBD: Add specifics: number of retries, grace period length, taxes language for multi-state nexus, and any state-specific surcharge disclosures.]

Members are expected to treat 5th Row staff, partners, fellow members, and venue guests with respect at all events, in chat with concierge, and across all channels.

• No harassment, discrimination, or disruptive behaviour at screenings or events.
• No recording, photography, or distribution of screened works.
• No sharing of member-only invitations, codes, or seats with non-members.
• [TBD: Add jurisdiction-specific conduct rules + termination triggers.]

[TBD: Define ownership of the 5th Row brand, content, app, and editorial. Outline limited member licence to access materials. Address user-generated content posted via concierge or community features.]

[TBD: List the partner cinemas, festivals, and venues. Disclaim responsibility for partner conduct, ticket availability, or programme changes outside 5th Row's control.]

[TBD: Grounds on which 5th Row may suspend or terminate a membership (payment failure, conduct breach, fraud, misuse). Refund treatment on termination — cross-link to the Refund Policy.]

[TBD: Standard “as is”/“as available” disclaimers and a liability cap consistent with the company's jurisdiction. Carve out non-waivable consumer rights where applicable.]

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of [TBD: state of incorporation, e.g. Delaware], without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or your membership will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in [TBD: county and state of venue, e.g. New York County, New York], and you consent to that jurisdiction.

[TBD: Add binding-arbitration clause and class-action waiver if counsel recommends (subject to state-law enforceability).]

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated to members via email and posted here with an updated date. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
