Terms & Conditions

1. About Bahama Match

Bahama Match is a membership-based, marriage-intentional matchmaking platform. It is designed to help single adults who are intentional about marriage identify compatible partners through a curated, algorithm-driven matching process and related member communications and support.

Bahama Match is a membership platform, not a one-time event or conference. Membership provides ongoing access to profile creation, matching, and communication features for the duration of the member's membership term.

2. Scope of These Terms

These Terms apply to:

• the Bahama Match Website and any related online portal or digital platform;
• all membership registrations, profile submissions, and payments;
• member profiles, photographs, questionnaire responses, and submitted content;
• the proprietary matching algorithm and related matching communications; and
• any related services, features, promotions, or communications offered by Bahama Match.

3. Eligibility

To be eligible to register for and maintain a Bahama Match membership, you must:

• be at least 18 years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher, at the time of registration;
• have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement;
• be legally single — unmarried and not in a legally recognized domestic partnership — at the time of registration and throughout your membership;
• register only in your own name and not on behalf of another person;
• provide truthful, accurate, current, and complete information in your profile and matching questionnaire, and agree to promptly update any material changes.

Bahama Match reserves the right to deny, suspend, or terminate access or membership if any eligibility requirement is not met or if information provided is inaccurate, misleading, incomplete, or inconsistent with these Terms.

4. Membership, Registration, and Payment

Registration for Bahama Match proceeds as follows:

• Profile and Questionnaire Submission — Interested individuals complete an online profile and matching preferences on the Website. Submission of a profile does not guarantee that you will be matched and does not create a contractual obligation on the part of Bahama Match.
• Membership Selection and Payment — Members select a membership tier (Classic or Concierge) and pay the applicable membership fee to activate their membership. Membership is not active until payment is received and processed in full.
• Algorithm Matching — Once your membership is active, your profile is processed through Bahama Match's proprietary matching algorithm, which may identify compatible matches for you during your membership term.

Bahama Match reserves the right to reject or cancel incomplete or unpaid registrations. Members are responsible for any applicable taxes, bank fees, currency conversion charges, or payment processor charges associated with their membership.

5. Membership Term

An initial Bahama Match membership runs for ninety (90) days from the date it becomes active. Members may renew their membership at the end of a term to continue receiving matches and accessing platform features. See Section 8 (Fees, Refunds, and Cancellation) for the policy that applies if no matches are made during an initial 90-day membership.

6. No Guarantee of a Match or Romantic Outcome

The matching algorithm generates potential compatibility suggestions based solely on information voluntarily self-reported by Members. These suggestions are not a prediction of romantic success, emotional compatibility, or long-term relationship viability. Actual outcomes depend entirely on real-world interpersonal dynamics, individual decisions, and factors that Bahama Match cannot predict or control.

Any promotional language describing hoped-for outcomes, improved opportunities, or enhanced connection experiences is aspirational in nature and does not create a promise, warranty, or guarantee of any specific personal or relationship result.

Members specifically acknowledge that:

• membership is designed to facilitate meaningful introductions and structured connection opportunities — not to guarantee a specific relational outcome;
• Bahama Match makes no warranty, express or implied, that membership will result in a match, relationship, engagement, or marriage;
• a match, if made, is not a guarantee of a relationship, engagement, or marriage;
• emotional, psychological, or relational outcomes experienced before, during, or after membership are the sole responsibility of the Member; and
• Bahama Match is not liable for any emotional distress, disappointment, or harm arising from the failure to identify a compatible match, or from the outcome of any relationship formed through the platform.

7. Accuracy of Information and Removal

Members represent and warrant that all information provided during registration, in their profile, and in the matching questionnaire is truthful, accurate, current, and complete. Misrepresentation of any material fact — including but not limited to age, marital status, identity, or questionnaire responses — is grounds for immediate removal from the platform without refund and may result in further legal action.

Bahama Match reserves the right, in its sole but reasonable discretion, to deny registration, suspend an account, remove a Member from the platform, or terminate access to the Website or service at any time, without refund where appropriate, where Bahama Match determines that doing so is necessary for safety, legal compliance, operational integrity, member welfare, or enforcement of these Terms.

8. Fees, Refunds, and Cancellation

All membership fees will be stated at the point of registration. Unless otherwise stated, all payments must be made in the approved form of payment designated by Bahama Match. Membership fees are non-refundable, except as follows:

• If a match is made during your membership, no refund will be issued.
• If no matches are made by the end of your initial 90-day membership, you will be offered a one-time, one-month complimentary membership.
• No other refunds are available to Members.

No refund shall be due because a Member is dissatisfied with matching results, interpersonal outcomes, or the general membership experience. If a Member voluntarily cancels their membership, or is removed for a violation of these Terms or the Code of Conduct, no refund will be issued. Bahama Match is not responsible for any third-party charges, bank fees, or currency conversion fees associated with payment processing.

9. Personal Responsibility and Safety

Bahama Match seeks to create a respectful and structured environment, but Members remain solely responsible for their own decisions, judgment, and personal safety at all times.

Bahama Match verifies Member identity through a government-issued ID (driver's license or passport) submitted at registration. Beyond this identity verification, Bahama Match does not conduct criminal background checks, marital status verification, or any other investigative screening of Members, and does not guarantee the character, honesty, intentions, health status, relationship history, marital status, or conduct of any Member.

You, and not Bahama Match, are solely responsible for exercising caution when communicating with, meeting, or forming a relationship with any match. If you want or require information such as a criminal background check or verification of a match's marital status, obtaining that information is your responsibility, through your own independent means, and not the responsibility of Bahama Match.

Any interaction with another Member — whether through the Website, by phone, in person, or off-platform — is at your own risk. Members are strongly encouraged to use sound judgment in all interactions, particularly before sharing personal information, meeting privately, traveling with another Member, or making financial commitments of any kind.

Bahama Match does not provide medical, psychiatric, psychological, relationship counseling, or legal advice through these Terms or through ordinary membership, unless expressly stated as a separate offered service. In the event of an emergency, local emergency services should be contacted immediately.

10. Member Conduct and Code of Conduct

All Members are required to treat fellow Members and Bahama Match staff with dignity and respect at all times. The following conduct is strictly prohibited:

• harassment, intimidation, coercion, stalking, threats, or unwanted contact of any kind;
• discriminatory, hateful, sexually aggressive, or inappropriate conduct based on race, nationality, religion, age, or any other characteristic;
• use of false identities or impersonation of another person;
• submission of misleading, obscene, unlawful, defamatory, or fraudulent content;
• unauthorized recording, photography, or distribution of another Member's images without their express consent;
• solicitation of money, gifts, investments, or other financial support from Members in an improper or deceptive manner;
• use of the Bahama Match service for any unlawful, exploitative, commercial, or unauthorized purpose.

Violations of the Code of Conduct may result in immediate removal from the platform without refund. Bahama Match reserves the right to involve law enforcement where the situation warrants.

11. Online Platform Rules

You agree to use Bahama Match's profiles, messaging, forms, and other digital features only for their intended purpose. You may not:

• copy, scrape, harvest, or extract member data;
• upload malicious code, spam, or unauthorized advertising;
• interfere with system security or Website functionality;
• reproduce or distribute Bahama Match materials without written permission; or
• use the platform in any way that could harm Bahama Match, its members, or third parties.

Bahama Match reserves the right to monitor, restrict, remove, or preserve content or communications as reasonably necessary for service administration, legal compliance, safety, investigation of complaints, or protection of the platform.

12. Submitted Content and Profile Materials

You are responsible for any photographs, profile content, statements, preferences, or other materials you submit to Bahama Match. By submitting content, you represent that you own it or have the right to submit it, that it does not violate any law or third-party rights, and that it is not false, misleading, abusive, obscene, or otherwise improper.

You grant Bahama Match a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use submitted content as reasonably necessary to operate the service, administer registrations, facilitate matching, and support related promotional or internal business purposes, subject to Bahama Match's Privacy Policy.

13. Privacy and Data Use

14. Marketing Communications

By registering or providing your contact details, you agree that Bahama Match may send you service-related notices and membership-related communications. Where permitted by law, Bahama Match may also send promotional messages, which you may opt out of in accordance with applicable law and the communication instructions provided.

15. Intellectual Property

All Bahama Match branding, logos, names, content, design elements, text, graphics, the proprietary matching algorithm, and related materials are owned by or licensed to Bahama Match and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, republish, modify, display, or commercially exploit any Bahama Match material without prior written permission.

16. Disclaimers

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Bahama Match provides its Website, platform, and membership services on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Bahama Match disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any express or implied warranties regarding:

• uninterrupted access to the Website or platform;
• suitability, compatibility, or mutual attraction between any members;
• accuracy of member-provided information;
• emotional satisfaction or relationship success; and

No statement by Bahama Match, whether verbal, written, promotional, or otherwise, shall be interpreted as creating a guarantee of personal compatibility, a match, a successful relationship, or marriage.

17. Limitation of Liability

• use of the Website or online platform;
• the failure to identify a compatible match;
• outcomes of any relationship, communication, or meeting with a match, including any harm arising from a Member's failure to independently verify a match's background, identity, or marital status;
• technical errors in the Website or matching algorithm;
• interactions between or conduct of Members; or
• third-party acts or services.

In no event shall Bahama Match's total aggregate liability to any Member exceed the amount of the membership fee paid by that Member during the twelve (12) months preceding the claim. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable law.

18. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Bahama Match and its owners, administrators, affiliates, employees, contractors, and representatives from and against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to:

• your breach of these Terms;
• your misconduct or unlawful conduct;
• false or misleading information you provide;
• your interactions with another Member, including any failure by you to exercise reasonable caution or to independently verify a match's background, identity, or marital status;
• your violation of any rights of a third party; or
• content you submit or distribute through the service.

19. Force Majeure

Bahama Match shall not be liable for delay, interruption, modification, or suspension of the Website or platform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, disease outbreaks, public health concerns, labor disputes, government actions, utility or technology failures, civil unrest, or supplier failures.

The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding.

Members waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against Bahama Match.

21. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. To the extent that any dispute is not subject to arbitration, Members consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Nassau, The Bahamas.

Members accessing the Website or registering from outside The Bahamas are responsible for compliance with their local laws and regulations to the extent applicable.

Updated Terms will be posted on the Website with a revised effective date and will become effective upon posting, unless otherwise stated.
