PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS SITE

Welcome to KarltonButts.com (the “Site”), the official website of Karlton Butts. The Site is managed and operated by Mattertree, Inc. (“Mattertree,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

References to the “Site” include KarltonButts.com and, where applicable, Mattertree.com, KarltonSpeaks.com, and other websites or domains owned or operated by Mattertree that link to these Terms of Use or redirect visitors to KarltonButts.com.

By accessing or using the Site, including browsing or interacting with its content or features, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. Your use of the Site is also subject to our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information.

If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, please do not use the Site.

1. MODIFICATIONS TO TERMS

We may modify these Terms of Use from time to time. Any changes will become effective when the revised Terms of Use are posted on the Site, unless otherwise stated.

The “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms indicates when they were most recently revised. Your continued use of the Site after revised Terms become effective constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

2. SITE HOST AND THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

The Site is hosted on the Wix.com platform (“Wix”). Wix provides the technology and services used to operate the Site and may process certain information in connection with your use of the Site. Wix's processing of information is subject to its applicable terms, privacy policies, and practices.

The Site includes a contact form provided through Wix that allows you to voluntarily submit information such as your name, email address, telephone number, organization, and other information you choose to provide. Information submitted through the contact form may be transmitted to Mattertree by email and used to respond to your inquiry, communicate with you, or otherwise as described in our Privacy Policy.

The Site may also provide you with the option to schedule a call or meeting with Karlton Butts through a scheduling service powered by GoHighLevel/HighLevel (“HighLevel”). If you choose to use that scheduling feature, you may be directed to or interact with a HighLevel-powered scheduling page or application. HighLevel may process information you provide in connection with scheduling an appointment, such as your name, email address, telephone number, appointment preferences, and other information you voluntarily provide.

Our collection, use, disclosure, and protection of personal information obtained through the Site, our contact form, or our scheduling process is described in our Privacy Policy.

Wix, HighLevel, and any other third-party service providers we use maintain their own terms, privacy policies, and data practices. We encourage you to review their applicable policies when interacting with their services.

3. LEGAL AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES DISCLAIMER

Mattertree is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Nothing on the Site, nor any communication with Karlton Butts or individuals at Mattertree relating to the Site or its content, constitutes legal advice or creates an attorney-client relationship.

The Site provides general information regarding Karlton Butts, Mattertree, their services, perspectives, publications, speaking engagements, programs, and other professional activities. Nothing on the Site should be construed as legal, financial, tax, accounting, investment, medical, or other regulated professional advice.

Engaging Mattertree for advisory, consulting, coaching, speaking, facilitation, or other services does not create an attorney-client relationship unless expressly established in a separate written agreement providing for legal representation.

4. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

THE SITE AND ITS CONTENT ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Mattertree makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, regarding the Site or its content, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, reliability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, availability, or security.

Although we endeavor to provide useful and accurate information, we do not warrant that the Site or its content will be complete, current, error-free, uninterrupted, secure, or free from viruses, malware, or other harmful components.

Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of certain warranties. Accordingly, some of these exclusions may not apply to you.

5. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MATTERTREE, ITS AFFILIATES, AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, AND REPRESENTATIVES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE OR ITS CONTENT.

This limitation includes, without limitation, damages arising from loss of profits, revenue, business opportunities, goodwill, or data, or from third-party websites, services, platforms, content, or technologies accessed through or in connection with the Site.

Nothing in these Terms of Use excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.

6. THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND SERVICES

The Site may contain links to websites, services, resources, or platforms operated by third parties, including links used for scheduling meetings, accessing external resources, viewing media, or obtaining additional information.

These links are provided for convenience or informational purposes and do not necessarily constitute an endorsement, sponsorship, recommendation, or approval by Mattertree.

Mattertree does not control and is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, security, content, products, services, privacy practices, or other practices of third-party websites or services.

Your interactions with third-party websites and services are governed by their applicable terms, policies, and agreements. You access and use third-party websites and services at your own discretion and risk.

7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY & OWNERSHIP
