Terms and Conditions
USER AGREEMENT
This Agreement sets out the terms and conditions relating to the online content provided free of charge and content subject to payment (“Free and Paid-for Content”) that ForumSherpa (“the Siteowner”) will provide to you (“the User”). By accessing resourcecenter.forumsherpa.com (“the Site”) the User is agreeing to the terms and conditions below. If the User uses the Site in the course of business the User is also agreeing to these terms and conditions on behalf of that business. If the User does not agree with the terms and conditions (or the User is not authorized to do so) the User should not use the Site. If the User has any questions, they should contact the Siteowner at info@forumsherpa.com.
SERVICES AND FEES
The Siteowner shall provide Free and Paid-for Content. This includes [a subscription for Paid-for Content available]. The Siteowner reserves the right to vary the Free and Paid-for Content and does not guarantee that the content provided free of charge (“Free Content”) will remain free of charge and does not guarantee that the content provided subject to payment (“Paid-for Content”) will remain a paid-for service.
SUBSCRIPTION FEES AND RENEWAL
Use of the Service requires payment in advance. If at the conclusion of your initial subscription term you fail to pay for additional usage, your account will be suspended and inaccessible until payment is made. See the website for current subscription fees. Your subscription will renew automatically at the end of the standard monthly, annual, or other pre-determined billing cycle that coincides with the end of your subscription term. That just keeps things simple. Please refer to the “My Subscriptions” screen (in “My Account”) for information about your account, including the renewal date.
CANCELLATION, SUSPENSION, AND TERMINATION
You are solely responsible for properly canceling your account. An email, direct chat, or phone request to cancel your account is not considered cancellation. You can cancel your account at any time by clicking on “My Account” on the top navigation menu at the top right of the screen and then clicking on the “cancel” button. It’s that easy!
If you cancel your account before the end of your current paid up term, your termination will take effect immediately and you will not be charged again. Your account will remain active until the end of the current billing cycle, but you won’t be entitled to a refund or prorated adjustment. (Sorry.)
If you cancel your account, your account access will be limited to the end of the current paid term.
Subscription fees are processed in United States Dollars, and any approved refunds will also be processed in United States Dollars.
We reserve the right to temporarily suspend or cancel your account if your usage significantly exceeds the average usage of other Service customers. Of course, we’ll reach out to you before taking any action except in rare cases where the level of use may negatively impact the performance of the Service for other customers.
The Siteowner in its sole discretion, has the right to suspend or terminate any account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service for any reason at any time. Such termination of the Service will result in the deactivation or deletion of your account
