Terms of Service

Version 3.0 — Last Updated: April 17, 2026

Previous Version: April 17, 2026 (v2.1)

1. Eligibility

  • You must be at least 17 years old to use the Service. If you are under 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy on your behalf. We reserve the right to request verification of parental consent at any time.
  • You must be an incoming college freshman or a person genuinely seeking to connect with incoming freshmen for friendship or roommate purposes.
  • We rely on the information you provide about your age, enrollment, and identity. Providing false information is a material breach of these Terms and grounds for termination. We do not independently verify that every user is a currently enrolled student.

2. Acceptance of Terms of Service

By accessing or using SlammedU, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you are under 18, your parent or legal guardian must agree on your behalf. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

3. Description of Service

SlammedU LLC operates an online social platform that helps incoming freshmen find roommates and friends before arriving on campus. We currently offer profile posting, roommate matching, and user-to-user communication features (including direct messaging and commenting), with the option to add new services under the same terms.

4. Subscription, Payment, and Automatic Renewal

4.1 Subscription Basis

The Service is subscription based. You may use Service features as your subscription tier allows while your subscription is active.

4.2 Automatic Renewal

YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW.

When you purchase a subscription, you authorize SlammedU, through our payment processor (Stripe), to charge your payment method on a recurring basis for the subscription fee disclosed at checkout. Your subscription will continue and your payment method will be charged on each billing cycle until you cancel.

Before you subscribe, we clearly disclose: (a) the recurring amount you will be charged; (b) the length of the billing cycle (monthly unless otherwise stated); (c) that the subscription renews automatically until you cancel; and (d) how to cancel. By completing checkout, you affirmatively consent to these automatic renewal terms.

After you subscribe, we send an acknowledgment of your subscription, the automatic renewal terms, and instructions on how to cancel, delivered by email or SMS to the contact information you provide.

4.3 Cancellation

You may cancel your subscription at any time through the Customer Portal accessible from our Services. Because you sign up online, you may also cancel online: no phone call or mail request is required. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your then-current billing cycle. You will retain access to the subscription until the end of that cycle. No refunds will be issued for the current billing period except as required by law.

4.4 Payment Processing

Payments are processed securely through Stripe. You agree to provide accurate payment information and to keep it current. If a payment fails, we may retry the charge, suspend your access, or cancel your subscription.

4.5 Fee Changes

We may adjust subscription fees. Material changes to recurring amounts or billing cycle length will be communicated to you before they take effect, in accordance with applicable law, and will apply only to billing cycles beginning after the notice.

5. User Registration

We don't create user accounts in the traditional sense. Instead, you sign up by completing your first form. We collect the information you submit through our signup workflow. For a complete list of data categories and our handling practices, see our Privacy Policy.

6. User Conduct

You agree not to submit unlawful, harassing, defamatory, discriminatory, sexually explicit, threatening, or otherwise inappropriate content. Use SlammedU sincerely to connect and collaborate. You also agree not to:

  • Impersonate another person or misrepresent your identity, age, or enrollment status;
  • Solicit, harass, or send unwanted sexual, romantic, or commercial content to other users;
  • Collect or harvest information about other users;
  • Use the Service to engage in any illegal activity;
  • Circumvent, disable, or interfere with Service security features;
  • Use automated tools (bots, scrapers) to access the Service without our written permission.

Violations may result in content removal, suspension, termination, and, at our discretion, notification to your university or other relevant authorities. You may report violations or abusive behavior by contacting slammeduniversity@gmail.com. We review reports and take action at our discretion.

7. User-to-User Communications

SlammedU offers features that allow users to communicate directly, including direct messaging, comments, and similar interactive features ("User Communications"). You understand and agree that:

  • Communications are between users. SlammedU is not a party to User Communications. Messages, comments, and other interactions between users reflect the views and conduct of those users, not SlammedU.
  • We do not pre-screen. We do not pre-screen, monitor, or review every User Communication before it is delivered or posted. We may, but have no obligation to, review, moderate, or remove User Communications.
  • No identity verification. While our Services are intended for incoming college students, we do not independently verify the identity, age, enrollment status, or intentions of every user. You may encounter users who are not current students, who misrepresent themselves, or who behave inappropriately.
  • You communicate at your own risk. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users, including the content you send and the decisions you make based on communications you receive. To the fullest extent permitted by law, SlammedU is not responsible or liable for any harm, offense, loss, injury, harassment, solicitation, fraud, unlawful conduct, or other consequences arising from communications between users, including communications from a user who is not a student, who has misrepresented themselves, or whose behavior is weird, inappropriate, or illegal.
  • Report abuse. If you receive a message or communication that is harassing, threatening, exploitative, illegal, or otherwise violates these Terms, stop communicating with that user and report it to slammeduniversity@gmail.com. In emergencies, contact your local law enforcement or appropriate authorities.
  • Block and restrict. Where available, you may block, mute, or restrict other users. We may, in our sole discretion, restrict, suspend, or terminate any user who violates these Terms or whose conduct we consider harmful.
  • Caution with personal information. Any personal or contact information you choose to share in a User Communication is shared at your own discretion. We recommend caution.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, SlammedU disclaims any responsibility or liability for the conduct of other users, whether on or off the Service, including conduct by individuals who are not current students or who have misrepresented themselves to gain access.

8. Intellectual Property

8.1 SlammedU Content

All content on SlammedU.com and social media accounts managed by SlammedU (including text, graphics, logos, and software) is owned by SlammedU, LLC or its licensors. You may view and share content for personal, non-commercial use only. Other uses require our written permission.

8.2 User Content

"User Content" means any photos, videos, images, text, biographical information, audio recordings, messages, comments, or other materials you submit, upload, post, send, or otherwise provide to SlammedU or through the Services.

Ownership. You retain ownership of your User Content.

License Grant.By submitting User Content, you grant SlammedU LLC and its affiliates a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, sublicensable (solely to service providers and platform partners acting on SlammedU's behalf), and transferable (solely to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of company assets) license to host, store, cache, reproduce, modify, adapt, edit, translate, create derivative works of, publish, publicly display, publicly perform, distribute, and otherwise use your User Content, together with your name, username, voice, image, photograph, and likeness as captured in your User Content, across all current and future SlammedU products, services, applications, websites, social media accounts, emails, printed materials, pitch and sponsorship decks, and advertising, marketing, or promotional materials, in any media now known or developed in the future. This license exists to enable SlammedU to operate, provide, improve, promote, market, and advertise the Services and SlammedU's business.

Perpetual Use of Published Materials. The license granted above is perpetual and irrevocable with respect to User Content that has been incorporated into SlammedU marketing, advertising, or promotional materials that have already been distributed, published, printed, posted, committed to a campaign, or otherwise deployed. Your rights regarding other uses of User Content are described in our Privacy Policy, subject to applicable law.

User Representations and Warranties. By submitting User Content, you represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have obtained all necessary rights, licenses, consents, releases, and permissions to grant the license above; (b) any other person whose name, image, voice, or likeness appears in your User Content has given you permission to submit that content to SlammedU under the terms of this Section; (c) your User Content does not violate any third party's intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights; and (d) your User Content complies with these Terms and all applicable laws.

Minors.If you are under 18, your parent or legal guardian's agreement to these Terms under Section 1 extends to and includes the license, name, image, and likeness rights, and representations in this Section 8.2.

No Sale of User Content. SlammedU will not sell your User Content, photographs, or likeness to third parties, and will not license them to third parties for the third party's own independent advertising of unrelated products or services. Service providers and platform partners acting on SlammedU's behalf are not considered third parties for this purpose.

Removal. SlammedU reserves the right, but not the obligation, to review, refuse, remove, or modify User Content that we determine, in our sole discretion, violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable. California residents under 18 may request removal of content they posted by contacting slammeduniversity@gmail.com. See our Privacy Policy for additional information about minor removal rights.

9. Privacy, Data Security, and Cookies

  • We implement commercially reasonable administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect your information. See our Privacy Policy for full details on data handling and user rights.
  • We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active. Upon account deletion or a request for deletion, we will delete or de-identify your personal data within 90 days, except where retention is required for legal, regulatory, or legitimate business purposes. Payment records may be retained for up to 7 years for tax and accounting purposes.
  • By using the Service, you acknowledge and consent to the use of cookies, session replay technology, web beacons, and other automated data collection technologies as described in our Privacy Policy. You may manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling cookies may limit certain features of the Service.
  • We may use your information to deliver targeted advertising on our Services and on third-party platforms, as described in our Privacy Policy. You may opt out of targeted advertising by contacting us at slammeduniversity@gmail.com.

10. Cross-Border Data Transfer

SlammedU LLC is based in the United States. By using the Service, you acknowledge and consent to your personal data being accessed, processed, or transferred to the United States or other countries where our team members, service providers, or partners are located. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction. For more details, see our Privacy Policy.

11. SMS and Text Message Communications

By providing your mobile phone number and signing up for the Services, you consent to receive transactional and Service-related text messages (SMS) from SlammedU, including subscription confirmations, posting notifications, match notifications, and account updates. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.

You may receive marketing or promotional text messages only if you provide separate affirmative consent for marketing communications. Consent to marketing SMS is not a condition of purchasing the Services.

To opt out, reply STOP to any text message from SlammedU. You may also email slammeduniversity@gmail.com. For help, reply HELP or email slammeduniversity@gmail.com. Opting out of SMS does not affect your subscription, but certain Service features may become unavailable.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. SlammedU, its affiliates, and its service providers disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.

Without limiting the foregoing, SlammedU makes no representations or warranties that:

  • The Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or available at all times;
  • Any particular user, match, roommate pairing, or connection will result in a successful, compatible, or safe relationship;
  • Other users are who they claim to be, are actual students, or will behave appropriately or lawfully;
  • Information provided by other users is accurate, reliable, or lawful.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.

13. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, SlammedU LLC, its affiliates, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or use, arising from or relating to your use of the Services, regardless of the legal theory. Our total aggregate liability for any claim relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of: (a) the amount you paid to SlammedU in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars ($100). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

14. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SlammedU LLC and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and service providers from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or related to: (a) your User Content; (b) your use of the Services; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation of any law or any third party's rights, including intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or contract rights; or (e) your interactions with any other user. SlammedU reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defense.

15. DMCA Notice and Takedown

SlammedU respects intellectual property rights. If you believe material on the Service infringes your copyright, please send a written notice to our designated DMCA agent at slammeduniversity@gmail.com, containing:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent;
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed;
  3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it;
  4. Your contact information (name, address, telephone, email);
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
  6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

We will respond to valid notices in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512). Users whose content is removed may submit a counter-notice. Repeat infringers will have their access terminated.

16. Payments and Refunds

For paid forms, we collect payment and billing information upon submission. All fees are final except as required by law. For billing questions, contact us at slammeduniversity@gmail.com.

17. Dispute Resolution, Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver

17.1 Informal Resolution

Before filing a claim, you and SlammedU agree to try to resolve the dispute informally. Contact us at slammeduniversity@gmail.com with a description of the dispute. We will attempt to resolve it through good-faith negotiation for at least 30 days before arbitration.

17.2 Binding Arbitration

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services that is not resolved informally will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Arbitration will take place in the state where you reside or, if both parties agree, through written submissions or video conference. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

17.3 Class Action Waiver

You and SlammedU agree that each may bring claims only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding.

17.4 Exceptions

You may bring qualifying claims in small claims court. Either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for claims of intellectual property infringement or unauthorized access to the Services.

17.5 30-Day Right to Opt Out of Arbitration

You may opt out of this Section 17 by sending written notice to slammeduniversity@gmail.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your full name, the email you used at signup, and a clear statement that you are opting out of arbitration.

18. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Except for disputes subject to arbitration under Section 17, you and SlammedU agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Centre County, Pennsylvania. Nothing in this Section limits consumer rights you may have under the mandatory laws of your state of residence.

19. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time for violations of these Terms or as otherwise permitted by law. You may end your use by canceling your subscription and discontinuing access. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including 8.2 License Grant as to already-published materials, 12 Disclaimer, 13 Limitation of Liability, 14 Indemnification, 17 Arbitration, 18 Governing Law, and 21 Miscellaneous) will survive.

20. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes (for example, via email, SMS, or Instagram post). Continued use after revisions constitutes acceptance. Previous versions of these Terms are retained and available upon request by contacting slammeduniversity@gmail.com.

21. Miscellaneous

  • Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and SlammedU regarding the Services.
  • Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
  • No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.
  • Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. SlammedU may assign these Terms to an affiliate or to a successor in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets without your consent.
  • Force Majeure. SlammedU is not liable for any delay or failure to perform due to causes beyond our reasonable control.
  • Electronic Communications. You consent to receive communications from SlammedU electronically. Electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.
