7. BILLING, PLAN MODIFICATIONS AND PAYMENTS

  • 7.1 Billing and Payments. The Service is made available on a pay-as-you-go basis and is charged at the start of Your elected subscription term (generally monthly). If You do not provide Your credit card or other payment information to ScanScout before the expiration of any free trial period, Your account will be suspended until payment information and charge authorization are provided. You will be promptly billed and, if applicable, any trial period will terminate. Thereafter, Your subscription will renew automatically based on Your plan’s renewal cycle. The Service provides an interface for the account owner to change credit card information (e.g., upon card renewal). The account owner will receive a receipt upon each payment received, or they may obtain a receipt from within the application to be able to track the status of Your subscription.
  • 7.2 Modifying Your Subscription. Regardless of Your billing cycle, there are no refunds or credits for partial months of Service, plan downgrades, or refunds for unused time. No exceptions will be made. Downgrading Your plan level may cause the loss of content, features, or capacity of Your account and ScanScout does not accept any liability for such loss.
  • 7.3 Overdue Charges. If You fail to pay your subscription fee on time, or if Your credit card payment information is entered in error or does not go through for processing, your entire subscription will be downgraded to the FREE plan.
  • 7.4 Billing Privacy. ScanScout uses a third-party intermediary to manage credit card processing and this intermediary is not permitted to store, retain, or use Your billing information except to process Your credit card information for ScanScout. For more information about Our billing practices and Your personal information please visit Our Privacy Policy.
  • 7.5 Taxes. Unless otherwise stated, Our charges do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments, including value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes assessable by any local, state, provincial or foreign jurisdiction (collectively “Taxes”). You are responsible for paying Taxes except those assessable against ScanScout based on its income. We will invoice You for such Taxes if we believe we have a legal obligation to do so.
  • 7.6 Price Changes. ScanScout reserves the right to change prices without prior notification as long as current accounts remain at the rates that were active at the time of subscription. Changes to the rates affecting existing accounts will be made only after timely notification has been sent. Such notifications will be sent via email to the email address each customer has provided during registration or the email address that is registered within the application.

8. CANCELLATION AND TERMINATION

  • 8.1 You are responsible for canceling Your account, and can cancel Your account by contacting us at [email protected] and requesting we permanently cancel your account. Once You cancel Your account You will lose access to all of Your content, and We preserve the right to delete all such content in the normal course of operation.

  • 8.2 ScanXscout reserves the right to (i) modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) and (ii) refuse any/all current and future use of the Service, suspend or terminate your account or any part thereof (or Your use of the Service), and remove and discard any of Your content within the Service if We believe that You have violated these Terms. ScanScout will use all reasonable efforts to contact You directly via email to warn You prior to suspension or termination of Your account. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity may be grounds for immediate termination of Your use of Service, and may be referred to law enforcement authorities. ScanScout shall not be liable to You or any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuation of the Service.

9. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

Your use of the service is at your sole risk. The service, including the site and content, and all server and network components are provided on an “as is”, “as available” and “with all faults” basis. To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither ScanScout nor any of their employees, managers, officers or agents (“ScanScout parties”) make any representations or warranties or endorsements of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, including, but not limited to: the implied warranties of merchantability, title, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. You acknowledge that ScanScout does not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, error-free or virus-free, and no information or advice obtained by you from ScanScout or through the service shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these terms.

10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

  • 10.1 No consequential damages. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory (whether in contract, tort, negligence or otherwise) will either party to these terms, or such party’s affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, suppliers or licensors be liable to the other party or any third party for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, consequential, punitive or other similar damages, including lost profits, lost sales or business, lost data, business interruption or any other loss incurred by such party in connection with these terms or the service, regardless of whether such party has been advised of the possibility of or could have foreseen such damages.
  • 10.2 Limits on monetary damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these terms, ScanScout ‘s (including any of its affiliates) aggregate liability, for damages (monetary or otherwise) under these terms claimed by you or any third party arising from our service, shall be limited to the lesser of (i) actual damages incurred, or (ii) payments made by you for the service during the twelve (12) months preceding the claim. The parties acknowledge and agree that the essential purpose of this section 10.2 is to allocate the risks under these terms between the parties and limit their potential liability given the fees charged under this agreement, which would have been substantially higher if ScanScout were to assume any further liability other than as set forth herein. The parties have relied on these limitations in determining whether to enter into these terms.
  • 10.3 Some states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, which means that some of the above limitations may not apply to you. In these states, ScanScout ‘s liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

11. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless ScanScout from and against any claims, actions or demands, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and professional services fees, arising or resulting from Your breach of these Terms, or Your access to, use, misuse or illegal use of the Service. ScanScout will provide You notice of any such claim, suit, or proceeding.

12. ASSIGNMENT; ENTIRE AGREEMENT; REVISIONS

We may amend these Terms from time to time, in which case the new Terms will supersede prior versions.

13. SEVERABILITY

The failure of ScanScout to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and to construe such provision to the maximum extent permitted by law so as to render that provision valid and enforceable, and the other provisions of the terms remain in full force and effect. You and ScanScout agree that any cause of action arising out of or related to the site or services must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues, otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
