THIS Agreement is made and entered into by and between the Justabout Wine Club and all Members of the Justabout Wine Club. (“Member” or “Members” refers to the person/s who is/are joining or who has/have already joined Justabout Wine Club.) (“Club” or “JWC” refers to Justabout Wine Club.)
By becoming a Justabout Wine Club Member and utilizing the Club and the amenities and services of the Club, Members agree to adhere to this Agreement at all times.

I. Intended Purpose of the Club and JWC Membership
Justabout Wine Club is a private, membership-based social and business club, that focuses on the appreciation and enjoyment of fine wines and collateral accoutrements that are commonly associated with the serving, consumption, storage, purchasing, and delivery of wines. The Club and its amenities exist for the private enjoyment of JWC Members and their permitted guests.
The Club and its Members participate in the Club, subject to and in accordance with laws promulgated by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which laws are subject to change from time to time.
Justabout Wine Club is a non-equity, non-transferable membership with access privileges to the Club, its facilities, and its included amenities. These amenities may be changed or modified from time to time. JWC Members do not have voting rights and/or a control or stake in the operations or management of the Club.
There is no rebate or prorate for Members who choose to relinquish their membership, and all advanced payments, including initiation fees, locker fees, storage license fees and/or general merchandise purchases, and monthly membership fees are non-refundable. Members retain access to Justabout Wine Club provided that their Member account is in good standing, as determined in the sole discretion of Justabout Wine Club Management. JWC does not “buy back” any upfront membership fees, initiation fees, or other fees.
Justabout Wine Club puts a high priority on the privacy of its Members, and does not publish, sell, or distribute Member names and/or contact information to other Members or third parties.
While Members will enjoy access of up to seven (7) days per week during regularly posted hours (which shall be updated from time to time), JWC is not intended to be a working space, remote (or satellite) office, or a professional office. However, JWC does encourage its Members to use the Club in a manner consistent with the available resources and intended use of the Club, its amenities, and the events that are available to Members from time to time.
II. General Expectation of Behavior
Justabout Wine Club membership is an “at will” privilege that can be revoked by either party at any time, without financial/payment refund. The friendly and professional co-enjoyment of the Club and its amenities amongst Members is a top priority at all times.
Justabout Wine Club Management expects Members to present themselves in a manner that is professional and respectful of (i) the Club in general; (ii) the Club’s facilities and amenities; and (iii) other Members while they’re on Club property. Failure to meet these reasonable expectations of the Club, as determined by Club Management, in its sole discretion, may result in an immediate suspension, modification, and/or termination of membership without refund.
Justabout Wine Club, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to review membership information at any time, adjust membership roles and tiers, accessibility, terminate membership, and/or adjust included amenities.
III. General Accessibility & Guest Policies
