- Accuracy, Completeness, and Timeliness of Information
The Platform provides a passive forum for Crew Members to obtain information about job opportunities and for Captains to post job opportunities. Cotton Crews makes no representations or warranties regarding the effectiveness of the Platform or its content in meeting employment or career objectives. By submitting or entering your information to the Platform for a job posting or Profile Listing (collectively, “Submitted Information”), you agree that you grant Cotton Crews a perpetual, non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty free, worldwide license and right, but not the obligation, to use, copy, modify, display, distribute, download, store, reproduce, transmit, publish, transfer, adapt, create derivative works in any manner, in entirety or a portion of, of your Submitted Information, and by any means, forever and worldwide.

A Crew Member may create a profile showing their availability for hire via the Platform (“Profile Listing”). To create a Profile Listing, you may be required to provide a variety of information, including, but not limited to, your profile photo, email address, phone number, job position, job history, languages spoken, skills, certificates, and nationality. The submission of personal information through the Platform is governed by our Privacy Policy, which can be found at http://www.cottoncrews.com/privacy/
To be featured on the Platform, all Profile Listings must have a valid email address, phone number, and uploaded curriculum vitae. Profile Listings will be made publicly available via the Platform when you select the “AVAILABLE” status tab. You understand and agree that the placement or ranking of Profile Listings in search results may depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the Captain’s preferences, your location, your last check-in date and time, and your ratings.
Captains will be able to download a Crew Member’s curriculum vitae through the Platform. Captains may contact Crew Members directly, either offline or via the Platform, based upon the information provided in the Crew Member’s Profile Listing.
- No Endorsements
Cotton Crews does not endorse any Crew Members, Captains, Profile Listings, or yachts. Users are required by this Agreement to provide accurate information. Although Cotton Crews may, for transparency or fraud prevention or detection purposes, directly or through third parties, ask users to provide a form of identification or other information, or undertake additional checks and processes designed to help verify or check the identities or backgrounds of users and/or screen user information against third party databases or other sources, we do not make any representations about, confirm, or endorse any user or the user’s purported identity or background.
Any references on the Platform to a user being “verified” or “connected” (or similar language) only indicates that the user has completed a relevant verification or identification process and does not represent anything else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by Cotton Crews about any user, including of the user’s identity and whether the user is trustworthy, safe or suitable. Instead, any such description is intended to be useful information for you to evaluate when you make your own decisions about the identity and suitability of others whom you contact or interact with via the Platform. We therefore recommend that you always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to contact or hire a Crew Member, to accept a contact/chat request from a Captain, or to have any other interaction with another user.
Cotton Crews may provide summary notes on certain Crew Members listed on the Platform to help provide further information for Captains. The summary notes are not endorsements, certifications or a guarantee by Cotton Crews. Under no circumstances shall Cotton Crews be liable for any inaccuracies of information provided in the summary notes.
By using the Platform, you agree that any legal remedy or liability that you seek to obtain for actions or omissions of other users or other third parties will be limited to a claim against the particular user(s) or other third parties who caused you harm. You agree not to attempt to impose liability on or seek any legal remedy from Cotton Crews with respect to such actions or omissions.
- Job Postings
Job postings shall not include any hyperlinks, personal information of the Captain (e.g., name, email address, or phone number), or any misleading or irrelevant information to the job.
- Captains
Cotton Crews makes certain tools available to Captains to help them find available Crew Members. You acknowledge and agree that, as a Captain, you are responsible for your own actions in job postings, curriculum vitae downloads, and communicating with Crew Members on the Platform. You understand that by using the Platform, you may be exposed to material that is offensive, indecent or objectionable. Under no circumstances will Cotton Crews be liable in any way for any such material.
- Promotional Codes
Cotton Crews may, in its sole discretion, create promotional codes that may be redeemed for an account credit, or other features or benefits related to the Platform and/or the services of a third party, subject to any additional terms that Cotton Crews establishes on a per promotional code basis (“Promo Codes”). You agree that Promo Codes: (i) must be used for the intended audience and purpose, and in a lawful manner; (ii) may not be duplicated, sold or transferred in any manner, or made available to the general public (whether posted to a public form or otherwise), unless expressly permitted by Cotton Crews; (iii) may be disabled by Cotton Crews at any time for any reason without liability to Cotton Crews; (iv) may only be used pursuant to the specific terms that Cotton Crews establishes for such Promo Code; (v) are not valid for cash; and (vi) may expire prior to your use.

- Charges and Payment Terms
Captains wishing to contact Crew Members or access certain Premium Content (e.g., the chat feature and Crew Member reviews, ratings, and full curriculum vitae files) will be required to pay an access fee for unlimited access to the Cotton Crews database for a specified duration. All access fee payments are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Cotton Crews.
The access fee may be processed by one of our service providers, including Braintree Payments. We encourage you to review the policies of Braintree Payments, which can be found at https://www.braintreepayments.com/legal.

After the duration of payment is complete, you will be required to pay the access fee again. If your primary account payment method is determined to be expired, invalid or otherwise not able to be charged, you agree that Cotton Crews may, use a secondary payment method in your account, if available.
Cotton Crews reserves the right to establish, remove and/or revise charges for any or all services obtained through the use of the Platform at any time in Cotton Crews’ sole discretion. Cotton Crews will use reasonable efforts to inform you of charges that may apply, provided that you will be responsible for charges incurred under your account regardless of your awareness of such charges or the amounts thereof. Cotton Crews may, from time to time, provide certain users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in different amounts charged for the same or similar services obtained through the use of the Platform, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Platform or the charges applied to you.
