The terms that govern your access to and use of cognatehispanic.com.
Effective date: June 17, 2026
Welcome to cognatehispanic.com (the "Website"), operated by Cognate Hispanic Marketing, LLC ("Cognate," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Website. Please read them carefully. By accessing or using the Website, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.
These Terms apply to all visitors and users of the Website. We may revise these Terms at any time by posting an updated version on this page; changes are effective when posted. Your continued use of the Website after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you object to any change, your sole recourse is to stop using the Website.
The Website provides general information about Cognate and our marketing, advertising, and technology services. Content on the Website is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional, marketing, legal, or other advice, nor an offer, solicitation, or guarantee of any particular result. Any engagement of Cognate's services is governed by a separate written agreement (such as a statement of work or insertion order) between you or your organization and Cognate; in the event of a conflict between these Terms and such an agreement with respect to the services, that separate agreement controls as to those services. Use of the Website does not create any agency, partnership, employment, joint-venture, or client relationship between you and Cognate.
The Website is intended for users who are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and able to form a binding contract. By using the Website, you represent that you meet these requirements and that any information you provide is accurate. The Website is not directed to children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
Subject to these Terms, Cognate grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Website for your personal or internal business purposes. You agree not to:
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Website at any time, with or without notice, for any conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is otherwise harmful to Cognate, other users, or third parties.
The Website and all of its content — including text, graphics, logos, icons, images, audio and video, page design, data compilations, and software — are owned by or licensed to Cognate and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws. "Cognate," "Cognate Hispanic Marketing," and related names, logos, and brand elements are trademarks of Cognate Hispanic Marketing, LLC. You may not use any of our trademarks without our prior written consent. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved.
If you submit information or materials to us through the Website — for example, through a contact form, a campaign brief, a job application, or any other communication ("Submissions") — you represent that you have the right to provide them and that they are accurate and do not infringe the rights of any third party or violate any law. You grant Cognate a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use, store, reproduce, and process your Submissions for the purpose of responding to you and providing and improving our services, in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Please do not submit confidential information that you do not wish to disclose; we treat unsolicited submissions of ideas or proposals as non-confidential.
The Website may contain links to third-party websites, services, or resources, and may display content provided by third parties. We do not control and are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, content, products, or services of any third party. Links are provided for convenience only and do not imply our endorsement. Your use of any third-party website or service is governed by that third party's own terms and policies and is at your own risk.
THE WEBSITE AND ITS CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS," "WITH ALL FAULTS," AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. COGNATE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE WEBSITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE WEBSITE OR ITS SERVERS ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. ANY MATERIAL OBTAINED THROUGH THE WEBSITE IS ACCESSED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES — INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE — SHALL COGNATE OR ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE WEBSITE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. WHERE LIABILITY CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE WEBSITE SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100) OR THE AMOUNT, IF ANY, YOU PAID TO COGNATE FOR ACCESSING THE WEBSITE, WHICHEVER IS GREATER. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Cognate and its officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Website, your Submissions, or your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right. If you are using the Website on behalf of a business, that business also accepts these Terms and agrees to this indemnification.
Your use of the Website is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information. By using the Website, you consent to the practices described in the Privacy Policy.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Website that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Commercial Arbitration Rules before a single neutral arbitrator. Either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and Cognate waive any right to a jury trial and agree that disputes will be resolved on an individual basis and not as part of a class action.
We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Website at any time, with or without cause or notice. Upon termination, the provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive — including intellectual-property, disclaimer, limitation-of-liability, indemnification, and governing-law provisions — will continue to apply.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any separate written agreement governing our services, constitute the entire agreement between you and Cognate regarding the Website and supersede any prior understandings. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of that provision. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Headings are for convenience only.
