-
Charges and Billing
This section applies in all situations in which you pay We-r-you
directly for a service. If you pay a company other than We-r-you
for a service, then the charges and billing terms are as stated by
that company. Even if you do not pay for the service, you may
still incur other charges incidental to using the service; for
example, charges for phone or Internet access, mobile text
messaging, wireless service and other data transmissions.
Payment. When you sign up for the service, you
will provide a payment method. You confirm that you are authorized
to use the payment method. You authorize us to charge you for the
service using your payment method and for any paid feature of the
service for which you choose to sign up or use while this contract
is in force. If the amount to be charged to your payment method is
greater than the amount you pre-authorized, we will tell you the
amount at least 10 days before we charge you.
Charges. If your service is provided on an annual basis,
we will charge you for the service in advance. If your service is
provided for an indefinite period or automatically renewed, we
will charge monthly for the services you will receive in the next
month. We may charge you at one time for more than one of your
prior billing periods. If we told you that the service will be
provided indefinitely or automatically renewed, we may
automatically renew your service and charge you for any renewal
term.
Updates to your Billing Account. You must keep all
information in your billing account accurate and current,
including your billing address and any expiration date for your
payment method. You can access and make changes to your billing
account in the my account section of Sparc. You may change your
payment method at any time. If you tell us to stop using your
payment method and do not provide an alternative payment method,
we will cancel your service. Your notice to us will not affect
charges we submit to your billing account before we reasonably
could act on your request.
Trial Period Offers. You may receive a limited time of
free service or some other trial period offer. Unless we tell you
otherwise, if you are participating in any trial period offer, you
must cancel the service by the end of the trial period to avoid
incurring charges or having your service downgraded to a service
for there is no subscription fee. If you do not cancel your
service and we have told you that the service will automatically
be converted into a paid subscription at the end of the trial
period, then you authorize us to charge your payment method for
the service. If we downgrade your service to one for which
there is no subscription fee, some of your data may not be
available to you and We-r-you may delete that data permanently
from our servers. You are responsible for taking the necessary
steps to back up your data and ensuring that you maintain your
primary means of business.
Prices and Price Increases.
The price for the service excludes taxes, phone and
Internet access charges, mobile text messaging, wireless service
and other data transmissions, unless stated otherwise. These taxes
and charges are your responsibility. Currency exchange settlements
are based on your agreement with your payment method provider.
If there is a specific time length and price for your service
offer, then that price will remain in force for that time. When
the offer period ends, we will charge you a new price for that
service.
We may change the price of the service from time to time, but
we will give you at least 30 days notice before a new price takes
effect. If you do not agree to the new price, then you must cancel
and stop using the service before the new price takes effect. If
your service is on a period basis (for example, monthly or
annually), then the new price will start on the date that we
indicate.
Service Conversion. You may be able to switch your
service to a different service. If you do, you authorize us to
charge your payment method for any new service charges. If you
switch to a service for which we do not charge a subscription fee
or for which we charge a lower fee, we will refund the unused
portion of the service charge for the subscription fee service you
previously used or the difference in the amount of the service
fees. You may not credit any refunds to other services.
Refunds. All charges are non-refundable unless expressly
stated otherwise, or otherwise provided by law. The costs of any
returns will be at your expense, unless otherwise provided by law.
Payments To You. To receive a payment or refund due to
you, you must promptly provide us with all information we need to
make the payment (for example, bank account information for
receiving the payment). You must provide us with the information
we request before your right to receive payment accrues. You are
responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and
any taxes you may incur as a result of receiving a payment. If
you receive a payment that was not due to you, we may reverse or
seek return of the payment, and you agree to cooperate with us.
Online Statement; Errors. We will only provide you with
an online billing statement. Go to my account within Sparc for
instructions on how to view, print or request a paper copy of your
statement. If you ask us to mail a copy to you, we may charge you
a retrieval fee. We can only provide a paper copy that covers the
120 days prior to your request. If we make an error on your bill,
we will correct it promptly after you tell us and we investigate
the charge. You must tell us within 120 days after an error first
appears on your bill. If you do not tell us within this time, we
will not be required to correct the error. You release us from
all liability and claims of loss resulting from any error that you
do not report to us within 120 days after the error first appears
on your online statement. If you do not tell us within this
time, we will not be required to correct the error.
Canceling the service. You may cancel the service at any
time, with or without cause. Go to my account section of Sparc to
obtain information on cancelling your service or send an email to
cancelme@coil-os.com
with explicit instructions. Certain service offers may require
cancellation charges, and you will pay all cancellation charges as
specified in the materials describing the offer. Cancellation of
the service by you will not alter your obligation to pay all
charges made to your billing account.
Late Payments. Except to the extent prohibited by law,
we may assess a late charge if you do not pay on time regardless
of any disputes you may have raised about your bill. You must pay
these late charges when we bill you for them. The late charge will
be the lesser of 1% of the unpaid amount each month or the maximum
rate that is permitted by law. We may use a third party to collect
past due amounts. You must pay for all reasonable costs we incur
to collect any past due amounts. These costs may include
reasonable attorneys' fees and other legal fees and costs. We
may suspend or cancel your service if you do not pay in full and
on time.
-
Changes to the Service; Cancellation or Termination
By We-r-you. We may change the service at any time and for
any reason without notice. If we cancel a particular service or
feature, we will make commercially reasonable efforts to replace
it with a comparable service or feature, but we are not obligated
to do so. We may cancel or suspend your service or a portion of
your service at any time and for any reason without notice,
including if you violate the terms of this contract. If we do,
your right to use the service will stop right away. Cancellation
of the service will not change your obligation to pay any charges
due on your billing account. If we cancel the service without
cause, we will refund the unused portion of your service charge
for that period on a pro rata basis.

using it. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the We-r-you
parties give no express warranties, guarantees, or conditions. You

You can recover from the We-r-you parties only direct damages up

losses, or fails of its essential purpose, or
We-r-you knew or should have known about the possibility of the

Indemnity
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold the We-r-you parties

Contract Interpretation
All parts of this contract apply to the maximum extent permitted
by law. A court may hold that we cannot enforce a part of this
contract as written. If this happens, then that part will be
replaced with terms that most closely match the intent of the part
that we cannot enforce. The rest of this contract will not change.
This contract, together with any codes of conduct and other
notices we provide, is the entire contract between We-r-you and
you regarding the service. It supersedes any other contract or
statements related to the service. If you have confidentiality
obligations related to the service, those obligations remain in
force (for example, you may have been a tester for a pre-release
version of a service). The section titles in the contract do not
limit the other terms of this contract.
-
Assignment
We-r-you may assign this contract, in whole or part, at any time
without notice to you. You may not assign this contract, or any
part of it, to any other party. Any attempt to do so is void.
Instead, you may cancel your service. The other party may then
establish a service account and enter into a contract with us.
-
Force Majeure
We-r-you will not be liable for any loss or damage or be deemed to
be in breach of this contract due to any event or circumstance
beyond its reasonable control, including, war, invasion,

God.

Part II â Terms Applicable to Certain We-r-you Services
-
We-r-you Service Terms of Use
Service. If you register for we-r-you, you do so
directly with Weru Technologies Ltd subject to all the published
terms and conditions, including all terms and conditions stated
herein. Your payment will be made to we-r-you corporation. Since
the We-r-you Service is running on We-r-you servers, all data
security and privacy issues are with We-r-you, and are also
subject to the above terms and conditions.
Rules for Using we-r-you
The following rules are required in the use of we-r-you.
Failure to abide by these rules may result in an interruption or
cancellation of service at the discretion of We-r-you and/or its
business partners.
- No copyright infringement.
Do not store or distribute copyrighted material if you do not
have the right to do so.
- No account sharing.
You may not share your account with other people. Please keep
your password private.
- Do not circumvent Free account download restrictions.
Any attempt to circumvent free trial account restrictions will
result in a permanent banishment from the We-r-you and we-r-you
community. This includes (3a) files with an invalid or disguised
file format; (3b) encryption; (3c) steganography and/or (3d)
creating multiple free accounts.
3a. No invalid file formats.
Please do not upload files with an invalid extension or in an
invalid format for the purpose of circumventing We-r-you or
we-r-you's rules. All files that do not match their file
extension or type will be deleted. For example, an MPG file
labelled as a TXT file will be deleted (and vise-versa).
3b. No split archives (e.g. ZIP or RAR files) with segments less
than 10 MB.
Split archives with segments less than 10 MB created explicitly
to circumvent the 10 MB free account download restriction will be
deleted. If an archive happens to be less than 10 MB or the last
archive in a series of larger archives happens to be less than 10
MB that's ok, but split archives in which all files are less
than 10 MB are not ok. For example, a 50 MB file split into three
15 MB files and one 5 MB is ok, but it's not ok to split that
same 50 MB file into ten 5 MB files.
3c. No encryption and/or steganography for the purpose of
circumventing We-r-you or we-r-you's rules.
For example, split archives hidden via steganography in images
for the purpose of circumventing free account restrictions will
be deleted. Note: files of all types are supported, split
archives are permitted, and the use of encryption and
steganography is permitted, provided they are not used to
circumvent free account download restrictions or any other rules.
For example, if you'd like to encrypt something for an extra
sense of security and privacy, please feel free to do so.
However, when these tools are used solely for the purpose of
circumventing We-r-you or we-r-you's rules, as determined by
the sole discretion of We-r-you or we-r-you, the files will be
deleted.
3d. No multiple free accounts.
Do not create more than one free account. If you need more
bandwidth, upgrade to a subscription account.
- No prohibited content.
Do not upload any prohibited content, including anything that
even remotely resembles child pornography. Any suspect files are
turned over to the appropriate authorities and/or to the
National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).
- 5. No invalid credit card information.
Obviously, do not use stolen or fraudulent credit card
information, but also please be sure to include correct contact
information for your credit card account. The information will be
verified with the issuing bank. If the information you provide
does not match what the bank has on record, your service may be
interrupted or temporarily suspended.
- 6. Limit archive and compression use (e.g. ZIP or RAR files).
Please only use archived files when absolutely necessary. For
example, please do not zip a single MPG file (there is no
advantage for you or us to archive already compressed media
files). However, if you have an assortment of files or a software
install that is more easily managed using an archive, feel free
to do so.

advertisements or solicitations of business: (v) impersonate
another person. We-r-you does not endorse any User Submission

repeat infringer. A repeat infringer is a User who has been
notified of infringing activity more than twice and/or has had a
User Submission removed from the Website more than twice. We-r-you
also reserves the right to decide whether Content or a User
Submission is appropriate and complies with these Terms of Service
