Kinetik Terms of Service

The Kinetik program intends to foster learning, support, and growth through a safe and positive space. Please review Kinetik's terms of service below.

Scope of service

Kinetik services (including but not limited to community, classes, groups, and coaching) are for informational, accountability, goal management, and executive functioning skills learning/application purposes. No Kinetik service (or combination of) constitutes the practice of medicine, mental health, or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical or mental health advice. No doctor/patient (clinician/patient) relationship is formed by use of Kinetik services. The use of content and services from this program or linked from this program is at the user’s own risk. The content and services of Kinetik is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical or mental health advice, diagnosis, therapy, or treatment. Users should not disregard or delay in obtaining medical or mental health consultation for any medical or mental health condition they may have and should seek the assistance of health care professionals for any such conditions. Although Kinetik coaches, instructors, and staff may have a clinical license or a professional history in mental health, their scope of services do not extend beyond their role as a coach, and their contact with you does not establish a healthcare professional and patient working relationship.

Expectations for all members 

  • Anti-Intolerance. Kinetik stands against all forms of dehumanizing or unlawful treatment of others, including but not limited to all forms of cyberbullying, cyber-harassment, hate speech, or threats based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, caste, sexual orientation, sex, gender, gender identity, disability, or immigration status. 

  • Be kind and respectful. There's no need to be mean, rude, offensive, or antagonistically political. While it is fine to challenge each other and provide feedback, please avoid disrespectful comments or destructive criticism. If you and another member have a disagreement, make an effort to understand their points of view before you respond to them. And when you respond, strive to resolve disagreements constructively and respectfully. 

  • Don't promote, solicit, or spam. There are plenty of places on the Internet for that; this is not one of them. We reserve the right, at our complete discretion, to remove any comments or statements that we or our systems identify as promotions, solicitations, or spam.

  • Keep discussions relevant and reasonable. We do not want you to feel limited or constrained to any specific topics or ideas within community discussions. However, topics or ideas that have no apparent relation to Kinetik's focuses or objectives will likely not be relevant.

  • Respect the privacy of others. This is a private space for members who are paying for our service. In general, we'd love for everyone to be as open and transparent as they want to be, but we want their privacy to be respected. Please do not share anyone’s nonpublic personal information on our platform. Do not use our platform to dox, extort, harass, or spread false and disparaging rumors about others. 

What happens if someone violates the code of conduct?

If we identify a violation, we may, at our discretion, opt to delete it without further comment and without notifying the person we might have concluded crossed the line. A first-time violation may receive a warning from us. A second-time violation may receive another warning. If more than two violations occur during a short period of time, such as within one month, we may take further action. Violations of our Anti-Intolerance guidelines are most likely to result in a permanent ban from Kinetik.   

If you believe someone has violated our Code of Conduct or if you have any questions, comments, or concerns about our Code of Conduct, please email Mary (Kinetik's Chief Project Manager and Member Relations Specialist) at Maryf@startkinetik.com .
