You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, authorizations, consents, communications, contracts, records, and other information that Talent Share provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

Failure to receive communications due to outdated contact information, spam filters, full mailboxes, internet outages, technical failures, or other issues within your control shall not relieve you of your obligations under these Terms.

8. Hardware and Software Requirements

You acknowledge that you possess or have access to the necessary hardware, software, internet connectivity, email services, and compatible devices required to receive, open, download, store, print, and retain electronic communications and records.

9. Withdrawal of Consent

You may withdraw your consent to receive electronic communications by providing written notice to Talent Share and discontinuing your use of the Platform.

Talent Share reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts where electronic communications are essential to providing the Services.

You acknowledge that these providers may process your information solely for the purpose of delivering the requested services and are subject to their own contractual, legal, privacy, and security obligations.

12. Legal Validity

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that electronic communications, electronic records, electronic contracts, and electronic signatures are legally valid, enforceable, and admissible in evidence to the same extent as paper documents and handwritten signatures.

These provisions are intended to comply with applicable electronic transaction laws, including the U.S. Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act), the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), where adopted, and any other applicable federal, state, or international laws governing electronic records and electronic signatures.

13. Survival

This Electronic Communications, Electronic Records, and Electronic Signatures clause shall survive the suspension, termination, expiration, or closure of your Talent Share account to the extent necessary to enforce legal rights, process payments, maintain records, resolve disputes, comply with legal obligations, or protect the legitimate business interests of Talent Share Corporation.
