No, but there is a 100% money-back guarantee available if you don't like it.

You're welcome to apply if you're definition of data products comes from the "data mesh" perspective, however  this community is not focused on data mesh or any other organizational construct.

Good question. I have a specific, but evolving definition of data products that I call the "producty" definition. I anticipate most of our membership will also approach data products from this definition.

We have a strict sharing and privacy policy. Please see our Rules of the Road.

We are working on this. Most likely it will be a new LinkedIn company page you can list in your profile/job history. This is of course, optional.

No. This is a community for established leaders and mentorship is not a current focus of the DPLC. We expect all members to be learning and contributing to the group.

Nobody wants another "hidden" subscription. As such, the DPLC billing software (Moonclerk) is set to notify you ~3 days prior to your subscription renewal so you can cancel if you don't wish to remain a member.

Once your card is charged again, no refunds will be issued, so I recommend you also keep track of your renewal date.

After the money-back guarantee window closes, there are no refunds partial or otherwise.

You also cannot pause your membership at this time.

If you wish to cancel your plan before your renewal date, please note that cancellation is effectively immediately; your membership will not extend through your 1-year anniversary date and no partial refunds will be extended. This means you will be removed from the Slack and will not have access to future live events. You also will not be able to reactivate your membership without signing up again and starting a new subscription. The reasons for this are:

1. To keep the price of membership low during our initial launch period, our community is not currently running on central membership platform that can handle membership + access permissions automatically. As such, I need to keep member subscription management work to a minimum as there is no automated way to keep track of who should have access to Slack, our content archive, and Zoom calls based on the billing software's knowledge of your current subscription status.
2. We want to encourage memberships from people with a long-term perspective on what we're collectively focused on.

Thanks for understanding!

As of late 2023, around 80 members. We reserve the right to limit memberships if we feel like the community is growing too quickly. The Founding Members have made quality over quantity a goal.
