Terms of Use Agreement

WELCOME

Welcome to g-romance, a computerized matchmaking service that connects single men and women of the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) community. g-romance is designed to be an inclusive site for all members of the LGBTQ community hoping to meet the partner of their dreams. It takes information that you provide as part of a brief character survey and uses a computer program to identify other individuals who share compatibility components. It offers a social environment to exchange user-generated content, such as photos, letters, film, and music. While we can't promise eternal love, we hope to create an environment where you can at least increase your chances!

WHO WE ARE

PURPOSE OF G-ROMANCE; MEMBER SERVICES; FEES

There are a lot of web sites that claim to be social networking sites targeted to the LGBTQ community. This one is different. It is intended to give people the opportunity to find a more serious relationship - perhaps even a life partner. It is expressly not for those looking for superficial relationships or a "one night stand.".

Your commitment to this sort of relationship is part of the terms of this Agreement. It is one of the reasons g-romance gathers personal information about you for use with its computer-based matchmaking service.

Our services are as follows ("Services"):

▪ You complete an intake form.

▪ You select the term of your membership (from one month to one year, renewable) and pay the applicable, nonrefundable, membership fee.

▪ You provide us a photo (face only).

▪ We provide you a survey, which you complete accurately and completely and return to us.

▪ We use a computer program to locate individuals whoseem to be a good match, and send you information about those individuals.

▪ You decide whether to contact those individuals, and theydecide whether to respond to you.

▪ You will not be able to access our web bank of Members or our survey results.

▪ Fees are subject to change and are stated in U.S. dollars in our Pricing Terms, posted to the g-romance web site and incorporated into this Agreement.

We cannot, of course, guarantee that our matchmaking efforts will find a partner for you. Success depends upon many factors, including the number of Members, the accuracy and completeness of information provided, the commitment of Members to the goals of the Site, and the complex world of relationships. We do hope, however, that our approach will improve the chances that you can meet someone with whom you share certain core values. Please let us know of ways that we can improve the Site or our Services.

Now onto more legal terms. They are important in ensuring that you are a good fit for the goals of this Site, and for setting out the terms of our business relationship.
