Terms and Conditions
IMPORTANT: Please read this document carefully, as it contains very important information regarding your rights and obligations, as well as conditions, limitations, and exclusions that might apply to you.

These Terms are subject to change by Moon Magnet Music, LLC (“MMMS,” “we,” “us”) without prior written notice at any time, in our sole discretion.
These Terms are an integral part of the “MMMS Terms”, which include our Website Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, Copyright Policy, these Terms, and any documents that are expressly referenced by them that apply generally to the use of our Website.

MMMS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY FOR THE TIMELINESS, ACCURACY, COMPLETION, OR WORKMANSHIP OF ANY WORK PRODUCT PRODUCED BY A MUSIC TEACHER AS A RESULT OF A MUSIC LESSON, NOR FOR ANY OTHER ACT OR OMISSION OF A MUSIC TEACHER. A MUSIC TEACHER IS NOT AN AGENT OF MMMS AND REGISTERED USERS AGREE THEY HAVE A DIRECT RELATIONSHIP WITH EACH MUSIC TEACHER TO PROVIDE MUSIC LESSONS. MOREOVER,

2. RELATIONSHIPS
Student and Music Teacher. The engagement, contracting, and management of a Music Lesson are between a Student and a Music Teacher. At the time a booking request is accepted, the Student agrees to purchase, and the Music Teacher agrees to deliver the Music Lessons and related deliverables in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to enter into any contractual provisions in conflict with these Terms. The Student is responsible for remitting subscription fees for Music Lessons in advance of the Music Lessons. The Music Teacher is responsible for the performance and quality of the Music Lessons in accordance with a Music Lessons Agreement between Student and Music Teacher. Student and Music Teacher each covenant and agree to act with good faith and fair dealing in purchase and performance of the Music Lessons.
Independence. Each Music Teacher has an independent contractor relationship with MMMS. These Terms are not intended to, and do not create any agreement contrary to the independent contractor nature of the relationship between Music Teacher and MMMS. No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employer-employee relationship between Music Teacher and Student or between MMMS and any Student or Music Teacher are herein created.
Registered Users and MMMS. MMMS is not a party to the dealing, contracting, and fulfillment of any Music Lesson between a Student and a Music Teacher. MMMS has no control over and does not guarantee the quality, safety, or legality of any services performed or deliverables created, advertised, the truth or accuracy of Music Lesson listings, the qualifications, background, or abilities of Registered Users, the ability of Music Teachers to perform services, the ability of Students to pay for Services, or that Student or Music Teacher can or will actually complete a Music Lesson. All rights and obligations for the purchase and sale of Music Lessons are solely between a Student and a Music Teacher. MMMS does not provide any Music Teacher with materials or tools to complete the Music Lesson. Students and Music Teachers must look solely to the other for enforcement and performance of all the rights and obligations arising from Music Lessons Agreements and any other terms, conditions, representations, or warranties associated with such dealings.
Agency. These Website Terms and any registration for or subsequent use of the Website by any user or Registered User will not be construed as creating or implying any relationship of agency, franchise, partnership, or joint venture between you and MMMS, except and solely to the extent expressly stated in the MMMS Terms.
Taxes. Registered Users are responsible for payment and reporting of any taxes. MMMS is not obligated to determine the applicability of any taxes or to remit, collect, or report any such applicable taxes.

In the event MMMS receives a notice of non-compliance with any such statute, regulation, or common law, including, without limitation, an Internal Revenue Service Levy, MMMS will deem such receipt a breach of this section and may suspend your account until MMMS receives an Internal Revenue Service Release.
