Acceptable Use Policy

Last Edit: Mar 29, 2023

All defined terms used in this Acceptable Use Policy will have the meanings set forth in the Kajabi Platform Terms of Service Agreement (the “Platform Terms”).

Introduction

At Kajabi, the most important thing to us is helping our Heroes build and grow their businesses. In fact, one of our Core Values is that we obsess over our Heroes. Our Platform is used by people in over one hundred countries, each having diverse cultures and sharing content in dozens of languages. We want our Heroes to feel empowered to communicate and to share their knowledge, and we take seriously our role in keeping abuse off of our Platform. That’s why we’ve developed this Acceptable Use Policy (this “AUP”) to outline what is and is not allowed on Kajabi.

All Heroes must follow this AUP in their use of the Platform and any other Kajabi add-on, feature, community, or product that we may offer. If you violate this AUP, we may suspend and/or terminate your Account, block your access to the Platform, remove and/or delete Content from your Account(s); block all third-party access to Content on your Account(s); and/or communicate a violation to impacted third parties and/or law enforcement authorities (where appropriate and subject to applicable law).

Definitions

If not otherwise defined in this AUP or in the Platform Terms, the following definitions apply:

“Contact” is any person that you, as a Hero, may contact through our Platform, or anyone on your distribution list about whom you have given us information or is anyone who has otherwise interacted with you via the Platform. For example, if you are a Hero, a subscriber to your email marketing campaigns or a user of your website or courses would be considered a Contact.
“Customers” are your end users, customers, and subscribers.
“Hero” is how we refer to our customers.

“Platform” is the entire platform of services, products, and other offerings operated by the Kajabi group of companies offered through our website, https://kajabi.com and any other website or mobile application owned, operated, or controlled by us, including all insights, analytics, and other features we make available through our products and services. Any new features or tools that are added to the current offering will be deemed part of the Platform and will also be subject to this AUP.

Legal Compliance

You must use the Platform in compliance with, and only as permitted by, applicable law. The use of our Platform in conjunction with other tools or resources in furtherance of any of the unacceptable uses we describe is also prohibited. We encourage you to seek independent legal counsel to determine what laws are applicable to your business and the use of the Platform.

Best Practices

As an ecommerce and marketing platform with customers all over the world, we are committed to preventing abuse of our Platform to protect both our Heroes and their Customers and Contacts. It’s also important to us to keep our Platform clean and avoid abuse because our reputation and deliverability depend on it. In our Help Center, we provide our Heroes resources outlining best practices for use of our Platform and we encourage all Heroes to seek independent legal counsel if you have any questions on what may be a violation of this AUP.

Kajabi’s Rights

Kajabi is not responsible for and does not necessarily endorse the Content and businesses of, or hold the opinions expressed by, our Heroes, content contributors, or other third parties. You acknowledge that by providing you with the ability to view and post Content through our Platform, Kajabi is not undertaking any obligation or liability relating to the Content. We (i) do not pre-screen Content; (ii) do not undertake or assume any duty to monitor our Platform for inappropriate or unlawful content; and (ii) assume no responsibility or liability that may arise from a Hero’s Content, including, but not limited to, claims for defamation, libel, slander, infringement, invasion of privacy and publicity rights, obscenity, pornography, profanity, fraud, or misrepresentation.

You acknowledge that, in order to ensure compliance with legal obligations, Kajabi may review Content submitted to the Platform to determine whether it is illegal or whether it violates this AUP or the Platform Terms (such as when unlawful content is reported to us). We have the sole discretion to modify, prevent access to, delete, or refuse to display Content that we believe violates law, this AUP, or the Platform Terms. If Kajabi determines, in our sole discretion, that any use of the Platform violates this AUP or the Platform Terms, causes damage to our brand or reputation, or results in an excessive volume of complaints, we have the right to suspend or terminate your Account and your use of the Platform. It is also in our sole discretion to refuse or remove any Content from the Platform or to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.

Kajabi may modify this AUP at any time by posting a revised version at https://kajabi.com/policies/aup. By continuing to use the Platform or accessing your Account after a revised version of this AUP has been posted, you agree to comply with the latest version.

Reporting Violations

If you identify content that you believe is in violation of this AUP, you may file an abuse report at kjbabuse@kajabi.com. Please include the URL of the website at issue.

What happens if you violate our policies

Depending on the type of violation of our policies, Kajabi may respond in several different ways. In some cases, we may allow an appeals process for you to fix the policy violation. If you believe that your access and/or your account has been suspended in error, you may request an appeal by emailing us at kjbabuse@kajabi.com. Below is a list of various ways we enforce policies, without limiting Kajabi’s rights under applicable law.

Services suspension

We may suspend you from using the Platform or specific services or features if you violate our policies. This means that you can no longer use the Platform or applicable service until the problem is fixed and has passed a policy review. Depending on the nature of the violation, Kajabi will use reasonable efforts to notify you of the suspension and give you an opportunity to cure the violation.

Account termination

We may immediately terminate your account, or access to the Platform, if you have several violations or a serious violation. If this happens, access to the Platform or other relevant service(s) will be immediately disabled. Depending on the nature of the violation, we will provide you with access to your account in order to migrate your data off of the Kajabi Platform. In accordance with our Privacy Notice, any Customer Data may be deleted 90 days after your account termination. Any related accounts, including any new account, may be automatically suspended or terminated. We may report any illegal activity if required by law.
