Membership Agreement

The Catch

Member Operating Agreement

I. ELIGIBILITY, GEOGRAPHY & CLASSIFICATION

1.1 Verified Single Status: Member represents and warrants they are legally single. The Catch CT LLC defines “Single” as legally unmarried and strictly excluding any party currently involved in an active or pending divorce, legal separation, or annulment proceeding.

1.2 Duty to Disclose Status Change: Member has a strict 48-hour Duty to Disclose any change to their Single Status. Failure to report an active shift in legal standing results in immediate termination and forfeiture of ongoing service fees.

1.3 Geographic Proximity & Territory: Member warrants that their primary residence is located within Fairfield County, Connecticut. The Catch CT LLC reserves the right to adjust operational boundaries over time; expansions altering localized search parameters remain subject to the relocation protections defined in Section VIII.

1.4 Classifications of Enrollment: Member explicitly acknowledges that their enrollment level dictates their operational status and the level of service rendered within the fleet registry:

• Registry Member (Standard Registry – $69.00/mo): Enrolls the individual as a passive participant within the database pool. Monthly fees cover account security, ongoing database maintenance, and continuous profile upkeep. Registry Members are eligible to be matched with Active Clients if natural compatibility is identified by the Navigator, but they do not receive proactive, dedicated scouting or outreach labor.

• Active Client (Active Search – $99.00/mo): Enrolls the individual as an active client of the firm. Fees directly compensate dedicated, proactive matchmaking labor, localized priority vetting, curation strategies, and active scouting execution by the Navigator.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section I in its entirety. I warrant that I am legally single, reside in Fairfield County, CT, and explicitly understand the distinct structural difference between a passive Registry Member ($69/mo) and an Active Client ($99/mo).

II. THE SENTRY AUDIT & SAFETY

2.1 The Sentry Fee: Member acknowledges a one-time, non-refundable $150.00 Sentry Fee required upon enrollment. This fee represents a direct investment in the safety of the fleet, completely covering immediate third-party criminal background screening, administrative verification, and advanced biometric identity credentialing labor.

2.2 Criminal Integrity: Member warrants they have no pending criminal charges and no prior criminal convictions (excluding records officially erased under Connecticut Clean Slate laws). Non-disclosure of non-erased history is an automatic material breach.

2.3 Criminal Background Screening Notice: The Catch CT LLC conducts criminal background screenings on all registered users. Screenings are utilized strictly for baseline safety verification but do not guarantee an entirely risk-free interaction environment.

2.4 Disqualifying Audit Findings: If an initial background audit reveals a disqualifying criminal history, entry into the fleet registry is denied. The $150 Sentry Fee is retained by the company to cover screening costs already incurred, and any pre-paid first month’s retainer fee will be fully refunded to the payment method on file within fourteen (14) business days.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section II in its entirety. I understand that a disqualifying criminal discovery results in denied entry, total forfeiture of the $150 Sentry Fee to cover screening costs, and a prompt refund of unearned monthly retainer fees.

[ ] Consent to Biometric Data Processing: I explicitly authorize The Catch CT LLC to collect and process my biometric data (such as facial scans or geometry extracted from uploaded files) strictly for identity verification and fraud prevention. I understand I can revoke this consent at any time via my account settings.

III. FOUNDERS RATES & RETENTION

3.1 Pricing Tiers: Monthly Retainers are locked in for the initial Founders Circle cohort at: Registry Member Tier: $69.00/mo | Active Client Tier: $99.00/mo.

3.2 Continuous Standing: Founders Circle rate-locks remain valid only for continuous, uninterrupted active membership within either tier. Voluntary programmatic transitions between Registry Member and Active Client tiers are subject to operational pacing and must be pre-approved by the Navigator.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section III in its entirety. I acknowledge the tiered subscription rates and understand the rules regarding continuous standing required to maintain my locked-in rate protection.

IV. AUTOMATIC RECURRING BILLING & DECLINED PAYMENT FEES

4.1 Pre-Authorized Monthly Billing: Member hereby authorizes The Catch CT LLC to automatically charge their credit card, debit card, or linked bank account on file for their recurring monthly retainer fee. This charge will execute automatically each month on the calendar day corresponding to the Member’s initial enrollment date (the “Monthly Billing Date”).

4.2 Declined Payments & Administrative Fees: It is the explicit responsibility of the Member to maintain valid, updated payment credentials in the member dashboard. If a recurring monthly charge is declined by the financial institution due to insufficient funds, expired cards, or account closure, a **$25.00 Administrative Recovery Fee** will be automatically assessed to the account to compensate for processing overhead.

4.3 Suspension of Service: Access to the fleet registry, active scouting labor, and any scheduled partner introductions will be immediately suspended if an account balance remains unpaid for more than **forty-eight (48) hours** past the Monthly Billing Date. In the event of an invalid or bad-faith chargeback dispute reversing legitimate operational fees, Member agrees to be held personally liable for all associated third-party collection agency fees and reasonable legal recovery costs.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section IV in its entirety. I AUTHORIZE automatic monthly billing on my recurring enrollment anniversary date. I understand that a declined payment results in an immediate $25.00 administrative fee and temporary service suspension.

V. DATA PRIVACY, SENSITIVE ATTRIBUTES & DISCRETIONARY REVEAL

5.1 Gated Privacy & Data Minimization: Personal data collected by The Catch CT LLC is strictly limited to information that is reasonably necessary and proportionate to executing manual matchmaking services. Commercial sale or leasing of member data to third-party data brokers or marketing firms is strictly prohibited.

5.2 Affirmative Sensitive Data Consent: To coordinate safe and highly compatible matches, Member explicitly authorizes the processing of sensitive attributes including government-issued identification numbers (for safety audits), precise lifestyle geolocation metrics, and personal health, lifestyle, or gender identity preferences disclosed during the Navigator’s Briefing.

5.3 Discretionary Visual Reveal: Member acknowledges and consents that while their personal Dossier is gated from public view, the Navigator may provide controlled, reciprocal access to Member’s visual parameters (curated photos and video introductions) to a potential partner once a formal match path has been established, confirming mutual interest before an introduction.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section V in its entirety. I agree to absolute member confidentiality, authorize the proportionate processing of my sensitive data metrics for matching purposes under Section 5.2, and explicitly consent to the reciprocal visual validation process.

VI. BREACH OF INTEGRITY

6.1 Material Breach: Discovery of non-disclosed background history, marital status fraud, or failure to disclose changes in legal status constitutes a material breach and will result in immediate termination from the service without a refund of the current cycle’s fees.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section VI in its entirety. I understand that providing fraudulent safety or status information results in immediate cancellation without a refund of unearned fees.

VII. OPERATIONAL AMENDMENTS

7.1 Right to Update: The Catch CT LLC reserves the right to amend general operational protocols, features, and platform mechanics. Material structural modifications to this basic agreement will be formally transmitted to the member’s verified email address on file.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section VII in its entirety. I acknowledge that these structural articles are subject to operational updates delivered directly via email.

VIII. CANCELLATION PROTOCOLS & MANDATORY STATE RIGHTS

8.1 Authorized Methods of Cancellation: Standard service cancellations must be formally processed through trackable, written channels to maintain accurate corporate records. Verbal, text message, or social media cancel notifications are invalid. Members must cancel via: (a) the secure member dashboard at thecatchct.com, (b) email directed exclusively to navigator@thecatchct.com, or (c) signed certified or registered mail delivered to the physical corporate headquarters listed below.

8.2 Processing Cycle Timeline: Standard monthly administrative processing requires a minimum of seven (7) business days. If a cancellation request is submitted fewer than seven business days prior to the member’s next scheduled Monthly Billing Date, that final automated cycle will process as scheduled, fees remain non-refundable, and service access will conclude at the end of that final period.

8.3 CT Relocation & Disability Protections: Pursuant to Connecticut state regulations governing consumer referral platforms, if a Member permanently relocates their primary residence more than twenty-five (25) miles outside of Fairfield County, or suffers a certified physical disability rendering them completely unable to utilize the platform for a period exceeding six (6) consecutive months, Member may request a pro-rated cancellation or suspension of their remaining billing term by providing verifiable documentation to the Navigator.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section VIII in its entirety. I understand the 7-day cancellation notification constraint and acknowledge the statutory consumer relocation and physical disability exceptions.

IX. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY & SCOPE OF RESPONSIBILITY

9.1 Definitions of Labor: Member explicitly agrees that fees are compensated strictly for structural background screening, manual vetting labor, database curation, platform security, and matching coordination by the Navigator. Romantic compatibility, personal attraction, relationship outcomes, or fixed introduction volumes are not guaranteed.

9.2 Assumption of Risk & Liability Cap: Member assumes all inherent social, physical, and emotional risks involved in meeting and communicating with individuals introduced through the platform. Under no circumstances shall The Catch CT LLC, its parent entities, or its Navigators be held liable for compensatory, incidental, or consequential damages stemming from personal interactions. In all instances, the maximum aggregate legal liability of the company to any individual shall be strictly capped at the total service fees paid by that specific individual over the immediate twelve (12) months preceding a formal claim.

[ ] I certify that I have read Section IX in its entirety. I assume all dating and offline interaction risks, and acknowledge that subscription fees compensate administrative and curation labor exclusively.
