Active Privilege Members are not eligible to access the Prime Application. Prime Membership access will be provided only after the member is removed from Privilege Membership and the reason for removal is verified.
Prime Membership access will be provided only on the same registered contact number used for the former Privilege Membership. No contact number change or substitution is allowed. For any such change, a new Prime Membership must be purchased.

If any policy violation is reported by the City Executive Director or Chapter Director, Prime Membership access will not be provided, and the Privilege Membership may also be terminated as applicable.
Prime Membership can be cancelled through the member’s account. Once cancelled, access cannot be restored, and a new Prime Membership must be purchased to regain access.

LVB may conduct appropriate verification and seek clarification, supporting documents, referral feedback, transaction-related information, or other relevant evidence to determine the facts and compliance with LVB policies.

LVB is a professional, business-focused networking community, and every member is expected to maintain professionalism, transparency, integrity, and respect for the purpose, values, and business-focused environment of LVB.
Every member must use their LVB membership primarily for networking, developing their registered business, building professional relationships, and creating genuine business opportunities within the LVB community.
No member is permitted to directly or indirectly use LVB meetings, member connections, or the LVB platform to promote, influence, or push any other business community, networking organisation, MLM, Ponzi-type scheme, or similar platform.
If any member hides their actual intention, presents a different business as their primary purpose, and uses LVB connections to introduce, promote, or connect members to another community, network, or platform, it will be considered a violation of the LVB Community Guidelines.
If any member attempts to divert another member from their business purpose, pressures them, repeatedly approaches them, or insists that they join another community, network, platform, or scheme, such activity will not be acceptable within LVB and should be reported immediately.
Any Founder, Co-Founder, Promoter, Key Representative, or person directly or indirectly representing, operating, or actively promoting a business networking community or organisation of a similar nature to LVB is not eligible to hold or obtain an LVB membership, whether directly or indirectly.

If such activity is discovered after the member has made the membership payment or after the membership has been activated, LVB may still immediately remove the member from the community. Payment, membership activation, or completion of any membership process does not create a right to continue membership if the member is found to be violating these guidelines.
