When you sign up for a User Account with Maxeler, you are required to give us true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself in all required fields of our registration form. For details on the types of data we collect for User Accounts, please visit our Privacy Policy here.

If your information changes, it is your responsibility to update your account to reflect these changes. If Maxeler feels that your account information is not complete, current, or accurate, or that your account violates these Terms of Service, Maxeler may suspend or terminate your account.

USER DATA AND ACCOUNTS

Maxeler calculates and bills fees in advance on a monthly basis. You agree that you will pay all applicable fees according to the billing process described below. All charges are non-refundable unless we specifically state otherwise in this Terms of Service, or unless it is otherwise provided by applicable law.

Fee Cycle and Payment of Fees

You agree to allow Maxeler to charge your credit card on a monthly basis in advance for providing Snippety. You also agree to allow Maxeler to charge your credit card, as needed, for additional overage costs or other charges that you may accumulate in connection with your use of Snippety.

Billing Policies

Payments are nonrefundable. Maxeler does not give pro-rated refunds for unused time if you cancel your account in the middle of a billing cycle. Additionally, Maxeler does not grant upgrade/downgrade refunds, nor does it grant refunds for months that are unused by an open account.

Upgrades

You agree to pay for any and all subscription upgrades that you request for your user accounts. If you upgrade your plan level or number of user licenses, Maxeler will automatically charge the credit card you provided with the new rate on your next billing cycle. If you upgrade your account in the middle of a billing cycle, a prorated amount for the upgrade may be assessed immediately.

Downgrades

If you decide to downgrade your subscription plan level, you may lose significant features, functionality, or storage capacity on your account. In the event that this occurs, Maxeler does not accept any liability for this type of loss. You are solely responsible for planning ahead and backing up your data before your account downgrade occurs. You agree and acknowledge that Maxeler is not liable for your User Data, and that it has no obligation to retain your User Data in the event of a downgrade. You also acknowledge and agree that Maxeler will delete your User Data if it is more than sixty (60) days after the downgrade.

Additional Fees

Maxeler is not responsible for any additional bank fees, interest charges, finance charges, overdraft charges, or other fees resulting from charges billed by Maxeler. Currency exchange settlements will be based on agreements between you and your credit card provider.

Additionally, you are responsible for paying all sales tax, use tax, value added taxes, withholding taxes and any other similar taxes and charge of any kind imposed by federal, state or local governmental entity on the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. When we have the legal obligation to pay or collect taxes for which you are responsible, the appropriate amount will be invoiced and paid by you unless you provide us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate tax authority.

Fee Changes

Maxeler reserves the right to change the prices of all services, including, but not limited to, monthly subscription plan fees upon the renewal of your subscription contract. Maxeler will provide notice of fee changes by posting the fee changes to the Maxeler website and via the email associated with your account. No price changes will take place during a subscription contract. Price changes take effect upon renewal of the subscription contract. Renewals of subscription contracts will take place automatically if you continue to use Snippety beyond the term of your current or initial contract term.

Late Payment, Non-Payment, and Suspension

All payments are made in advance of receiving services. If we do not receive payment of fees, in full, within three (3) days of processing your credit card, Maxeler retains the right, without notice, to suspend or terminate your user account and your access to Snippety.
