Member Agreement

The Hivery, LLC was created to foster and support a collaborative by providing its’

members with space, learning,and community. By joining The Hivery, our members

agree to certain rules for our community. The goal of The Hivery is to support each other, cultivate what’s next in each of our work, collaborate, learn, and grow, all of which requires a commitment to follow the Rules of The Hivery.

As a condition to membership, we each agree to abide by the Rules as stated in this

document and The Hivery handbook.

Any questions about this Agreement, or any rules should be addressed by email to

info@The Hivery.com.

By joining or engaging with The Hivery in any manner, you are agreeing to the following:

1. Conduct

Kindness is the first and most important mantra for The Hivery. Behave well and treat

others the way you would want to be treated. Support others’ ideas, efforts, and work.

You agree to abide by the general rules and procedures as put forth in The Hivery

Handbook. You also agree not to join The Hivery with any ill intent or harmful intentions for The Hivery, its' members, its' management, or its' future. 

2. Community

Believe in yourself, believe in others, and especially believe in the collaborative power

of the The Hivery community. Share. Collaborate. Work hard. Have fun. Improve The

Hivery for all. Give input to make The Hivery better. Follow The Hivery Creed as stated

on The Hivery website.

3. Membership Details and Access

The Hivery’s membership includes access to The Hivery workspace specific times per

week, depending on your membership level. You can choose any days per week

(weekdays only), and you don’t need to reserve them in advance, with the number of

weeks driven by membership level.

The Hivery may be bustling with people, and some days, it may be quiet. You will

always be guaranteed a seat at The Hivery, but not necessarily a desk, and not

necessarily your favorite desk. We are continuing to add workspaces so that as The

Hivery grows, we can continue our commitment to a creative, collaborative space for

women. Workdays are non-transferrable. In other words, if you don’t use The Hivery

one week, you can’t transfer your workdays to the following week. We maintain that

rule so that we’re always able to operate at a capacity that is comfortable and

productive for all.

Members are required to give The Hivery 30-day notice if they intend to cancel their

membership. Note that this 30-day notice is not granted in the case of unkind or illegal behavior as stated in the Termination Section 6.
