This membership Terms and Conditions (“Terms and Conditions” or “Agreement”) is a legal agreement
between you/your organization (“You” or “your”), and the Health and Beauty Association, a division
and service of HBA, a for-profit Georgia corporation (“HBA” or “Corporation”) which sets forth terms
and conditions of membership. You understand that the rights of membership, including the right to
identify membership, begin only when you have been notified that your application for membership
has been accepted.
MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS
Terms: The Corporation’s membership is open to individuals, corporations, partnerships and other
entities that are individuals, employees, or employers with a minimum of one full-time, active,
permanent employee at all times, involved in the health or beauty industry or with allied products or
services and/or health or beauty products or services (collectively, “Product” or “Products”) and media
companies involved in the production, broadcasting and/or distribution of information about health or
beauty.
Conditions: Corporations, partnerships and other entities that operate separate subsidiaries or that have
affiliates, utilize multiple brand names, and/or service separate Product categories may join the HBA as
separate members, but must pay dues for each separate member. Each member corporation,
partnership or other entity will have all non-voting membership rights applicable to its class with the
exception that only one representative of a group of related members with common ownership and/or
control may be elected to the HBA Board of Directors at any time.
Membership Classes are defined in the HBA Bylaws. Annual Membership dues (“dues”) are established
by the HBA Board of Directors and are deductible as an ordinary and necessary business expense. Dues
are not deductible as charitable contributions. Dues are based on a calendar year and cannot be pro-
rated. If a member joins mid-year it must pay dues for the entire year. The dues set forth herein are
those in effect for the current year and are subject to change thereafter without necessitating any
amendment to these Terms and Conditions.
1) Basic Membership (Free Trial) $9.99 per month or $119.88 per year
