Partner Terms
Six kinds of partnership, six documents — and the same backbone under all of them.
Last updated — September 24, 2026
1. Which document applies to you
A partnership with the Club takes one of six forms, and each has its own terms. They share a backbone — names and logos, what the relationship is not, how it ends, and what happens to personal data — and differ in what each side actually gives.
If you are not sure which one you are signing, the partner form tells you: the level you choose there decides the document.
2. Names and logos — common to all six
Each of us may use the other's name to describe the partnership factually, and neither of us may use the other's name or marks to suggest an endorsement of a product, a price or a third party.
The Club publishes your logo only once you have given permission in writing, and displays it according to any brand rules you supply. Until then the Club writes your name in plain text — and the Club's own database refuses to store a logo against a partnership that is not signed.
Either of us may withdraw that permission at any time, in writing. The Club removes the logo at its next publication of the site and in any event within seven days.
3. What this is not — common to all six
This is not a contract for services, an agency, a partnership in the legal sense, a joint venture, or an employment relationship. Neither of us may commit the other to anything.
It is not exclusive. The Club may accept partners in the same sector, and you are free to support any other organisation.
The Club does not promise attendance numbers, business introduced, coverage, or any commercial outcome. What the Club promises is what this document says it gives, and nothing beyond it.
4. Term, and ending it — common to all six
The partnership runs for twelve months from the date you sign, and renews for a further twelve months unless either of us says otherwise.
Either of us may end it at any time, in writing, without giving reasons. Your name comes off the partners page at the next publication of the site.
Ending the partnership does not undo an occasion already held, and does not entitle either of us to a refund or a payment, except where the section on fees says so.
5. Personal data, and the rest — common to all six
The Club holds the details you give on the form to run the partnership, and handles them as set out in its Privacy Policy. Your signature record — the version of these terms, the name signed and the moment — is kept for as long as the partnership runs and for six years afterwards.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, and sit alongside the Terms of Use, the Code of Conduct and the Privacy Policy.
