Worthington Enterprises, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “WE,” "Worthington," “we,” “our” and “us”) provide the websites, mobile applications, and products offered by or through one or more of them (“Online Services”) subject to these Terms of Use (“Terms”). These Terms apply to websites, apps, products, and services where posted by WE.

Please read these Terms carefully before you access or use our Online Services. When you access or use our Online Services, you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms, as amended from time to time, as well as the Worthington Enterprises Privacy Notice, which is incorporated by reference into these Terms. If you do not wish to agree to these Terms, do not access or use our Online Services.

2. We may revise these Terms.

WI may change these Terms at any time by posting changes to the Online Services, or on a website or app that replaces them, prior to the change becoming effective, or by notifying you via your WE account, through the app, or by email prior to the effective date of the change. You agree to be bound by any changes to these Terms thirty days after they are revised or when you use the Online Services after any such change is posted, whichever is sooner. WE may revise the Online Services at any time without notice.

3. You authorize us to access your information.

You grant to WE an irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to any information you provide through the Online Services. You authorize WE to use this information, content, or other information to provide the Online Services, or for other permissible business purposes, at no cost to WE.

4. We disclaim all warranties to you.

The Online Services are provided as is or as available. WE, including any person associated with WE, disclaims all warranties of any kind about Online Services, including relating to their quality, accuracy, or availability.

WE disclaims all warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied. This includes, but is not limited to, any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, security, or accuracy with regard to any website owned by a third party to which or from which the site is linked (“Linked Website”). WE does not endorse and is not responsible for the capabilities, quality, content, or reliability of any product or service obtained from a Linked Website. Your use of Linked Websites is at your own risk and subject to the terms for such websites.

Without limiting the foregoing, neither WE nor anyone associated with WE warrants or represents that the Online Services will be accurate, reliable, error-free, timely, secure, complete, available, or uninterrupted or meet your requirements; that defects will be corrected; that the Online Services or the server that makes them available are free of viruses or other harmful components; that the Online Services, including the quality of any products, services, information, or other material, will otherwise meet your needs or expectations; or that any errors will be corrected.

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

5. We limit our liability to you.

To the extent permitted by law, in no event will WE or its licensors, service providers, employees, officers, directors, or contractors be liable for any damages of any kind, under any theory or law or equity, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use our Online Services or any Linked Website, including any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages.

This limitation of liability includes, without limitation, personal injury, lost profits, goodwill, data, or other losses, costs of obtaining substitute service or lost opportunity, or damages resulting from delay, interruption in service, mechanic or electronic equipment failure, failure of communication lines, telephone, or other interconnects, unauthorized use or access to or alteration of your transmission of data, theft, operational errors, strikes or other labor problems, statements or conduct of anyone on the site, any force majeure event, viruses, deletion of files or electronic communications, or errors, omissions or other inaccuracies in Online Services, whether or not WE has been negligent or been advised of the possibility of any such damages.

Regardless of the limitation of liability disclaimers in this section, if WE is found to be liable, our liability to you or any third party is limited to $100.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain liabilities; therefore, some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.

  1. anything illegal or that violates a contractual obligation;
  2. attempt to derive or use source code from the Online Services;

  6. engage in activity that violates the privacy of others;
