2. Use of the Services
As a user of any of the Services (a "Registered User"), you agree to the following:
a. Membership. It is free to register for the Canadian Muslim Matchmaker services which may be used by you at no cost. Once you have registered by providing preliminary information you will be asked to schedule an in person meeting with one or our team members where you will be asked to answer a scientifically- based Compatibility Quiz which has been structured by reference to specific psychological criteria. The results of the Compatibility Quiz as well as comprehensive statistical comparative data are used by Canadian Muslim Matchmaker to automatically create your individual personality profile. Your personality profile will then be integrated into the Canadian Muslim Matchmaker database. Once in our database, your personality profile is (through an automated/manual process) matched up to the profiles of other Canadian Muslim Matchmaker members, which enables Canadian Muslim Matchmaker to determine your compatibility with those members. Using this information, Canadian Muslim Matchmaker will send you partner recommendations (“matches”). Please note that we may limit the number of predefined communications that you can send if required to protect our members and to secure our Service as further set out in this Agreement. As a member, you will not receive a copy of your personality profile, but you may purchase a PDF copy of the personality profile at the price listed on the Service at the time of purchase.
During the initial in person meeting with one of our team members you will be asked to provide your credit card information which will only be charged once you find your successful match for the amount based on the agreement. Credits are linked to and stored in your Membership account.
