Please read this Agreement carefully before accessing or using our Services. By accessing or using any part of our Services, you agree to become bound by the Terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to all the Terms of this Agreement, then you may not access or use any of our Services.

We refer to Pressable, Inc. as “Pressable,” “us,” “our,” or “we” throughout these Terms.

“You” means any individual or entity using our Services. If you use our Services on behalf of another person or entity, you represent and warrant that you’re authorized to accept the Agreement on that person’s or entity’s behalf, that by using our Services you’re accepting the Agreement on behalf of that person or entity, and that if you, or that person or entity, violates the Agreement, you and that person or entity agree to be responsible to us.

1. FEES, PAYMENT, AND RENEWAL

Ordering; pricing Our Services are offered for a fee. You must provide accurate and up-to-date payment information and sufficient funds or credit available on your payment method to ensure that the purchase price will be collectible by us.

When you submit an order, you authorize us to charge your designated payment method for the full amount, including the price, taxes and any other displayed costs. All prices on the Services are subject to change at any time, but changes will not affect any order for Services you have already placed except that price changes for auto-renewing subscriptions will take effect when indicated in our email notice to you.

Prices shown on the Services exclude all taxes. Any taxes or other additional costs we charge will be added to the amount of your purchase on the check-out page. You will have an opportunity to review taxes and costs we charge before you confirm your purchase. When you submit an order, you authorize us to charge your designated payment method for the full amount, including the price, taxes and any other displayed costs.  All prices on the Services are subject to change at any time, but changes will not affect any order for Services you have already placed except that price changes for auto-renewing subscriptions will take effect when indicated in our email notice to you.

Your order is not binding on Pressable until accepted and confirmed by Pressable via email. Pressable reserves the right to not process or to cancel your order in certain circumstances, for example, if your payment method is declined, if we suspect the request or order is fraudulent, or in other circumstances Pressable deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion. From time to time, we may receive updated information from your issuing bank or applicable payment service provider about any payment card or method you have stored in your account (or, in the case of an existing subscription, the payment card or method you provided to us at the time you signed up for such subscription), and you hereby authorize us to use such updated information to charge (or, in the case of an existing subscription, to continue to charge) that payment card or method.

Taxes. You are responsible for all federal, provincial, state, local or other governmental sales, value-added, goods and services, harmonized or other taxes, fees, or charges (“Taxes”) related to your transactions. We may not collect Taxes on Services if you enter a billing address in a jurisdiction in which we do not have a substantial nexus. In such cases, you will be liable to the appropriate taxing authority for any Taxes relating to your purchase of Services.

Auto-Renewing Subscriptions. Some Services automatically renew as recurring subscriptions. The then-current price and subscription period for each subscription you purchase will be shown to you at the time of purchase. If you subscribed during a promotion, used a coupon code, or otherwise received a discount, your subscription will automatically renew for the full price of the subscription at the end of the discount period.

By enrolling in a subscription, you authorize the subscription fee (and any applicable taxes) to be automatically charged to your designated payment method for each subsequent subscription period until you or we cancel the subscription or the subscription was cancelled for other reasons.

You must cancel your subscription at least twenty-four (24) hours before the end of your current subscription period in order to avoid being charged for the next subscription period. 

You can modify your payment method or cancel your subscriptions by following these instructions.

Free Trials. Your subscription may start with a free trial. Our 30-day money back guarantee cannot be combined with a free trial. Other specific terms of any free trial will be provided either in the marketing materials describing the free trial or at registration. We reserve the right, in our reasonable discretion, to determine your free trial eligibility and to modify or cancel the terms offered for our free trials (on a going-forward basis for new free trials) at any time. 

Once your free trial ends, unless you have already canceled your free trial, the subscription fee (and any applicable taxes) will be automatically charged to your designated payment method for the subscription period following your free trial. Thereafter, your subscription will continue to automatically renew as described above until you or we cancel the subscription or the subscription was cancelled for other reasons.

You can modify your payment method or cancel your free trial by following the instructions provided in the confirmation email sent after you signed up or by visiting the website of the relevant Paid Service.

Refunds. Refunds are issued in our sole discretion.

2. MATERIAL PRODUCTS

You will provide us with material and data in a condition that is “server-ready”, which is in a form requiring no additional manipulation on our part. We shall make no effort to validate this information for content, correctness, or usability.

Use of our Service requires a certain level of knowledge in the use of Internet languages, protocols, and software. This level of knowledge varies depending on the anticipated use and desired content of your Webspace.

The following examples are offered:

  • Web Publishing: requires a knowledge of HTML, properly locating and linking documents, FTPing Webspace contents, graphics, text, sound, image mapping, etc.
  • We will exercise no control whatsoever over the content of the information passing through the network, provided that it adheres to all other conditions set forth in our Terms.

  • You agree to cooperate in any reasonable investigations into your adherence to all agreed upon Terms. Failure to cooperate is grounds for immediate disablement of all accounts/Services.

  • The opening of multiple accounts or Plans in order to bypass any restrictions or overage charges we set forth is grounds for termination of all Services.

We also disclaim any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose and will not be responsible for any damages that may be suffered by you, including loss of data resulting from delays, non-deliveries or service interruptions by any cause or errors or your omissions. Use of any information obtained by way of Pressable is at your own risk, and we specifically deny any responsibility for the accuracy or quality of information obtained through our Services.

We expressly limit our damages to you for any non-accessibility time or other down time to the pro-rata monthly charge during the system unavailability.
  • We specifically deny any responsibilities for any damages arising as a consequence of such unavailability. In the event that this material is not “Server-ready”, we may, at our option and at any time, reject this material, including but not limited to after it has been put on Pressable’s Servers. We agree to notify you immediately of our refusal of the material and afford you the opportunity to amend or modify the material to satisfy our needs and/or requirements. If you fail to modify the material, as directed by us, within a reasonable period of time, which shall be determined between the parties themselves, the Agreement shall be deemed to be terminated.
  • All domain names registered through Pressable, that are ‘parked’ or are otherwise not immediately associated with a Pressable Plan will be automatically pointed to a “Pressable Customer Website” web page which informs visitors that the registrant has recently registered their domain name via Pressable.com. We may modify this web page at any time without prior notice to you and may include such things as, without limitation, links to additional products and Services offered by Pressable.
