Subscriber agreement
1. Status of Subscriber Agreement
This legally binding subscriber agreement (the “Agreement”) sets out the terms under which you may use any content which you download or stream from this website.
We recommend that you store a copy of this Agreement for your records.
You will have been asked to confirm your agreement to the terms of this Agreement either before you access any of the Content for the first time as a subscriber or in a subsequent confirmation e-mail, and upon any renewal of your subscription. In addition, each time you access any of the Content you are confirming your agreement to its terms, and you should check section 8 below to see whether it has been updated since you last visited the website.
Each seminar, conference, webinar, eBook, eDocument, and other item of content (the “Content”) is published by BizSummits LLC (“BizSummits”) and references in this Agreement to “we”, “us” or “our” refer to BizSummits. The intellectual property rights in all Content and the website is owned by BizSummits or its licensors.
If your subscription has been acquired for your use at a company or other organization you work for or are otherwise engaged by, then you are also agreeing to the terms of this Agreement on behalf of that company or organization and both you and it are responsible for your use of the Content in accordance with this Agreement. A separate subscription is required for each user within an organization.
You are responsible for all use of the Content made by you or anyone else using your ID and for preventing unauthorized use of your ID.
If you do not agree with this Agreement (or are not authorised to do so on behalf of your business or work) you should not access or use any of the Content.
BizSummits will try to process your subscription application promptly but does not guarantee that the Content will be available to you by any specified time after buying the subscription.
2. Proprietary Rights and Permitted Use
BizSummits or its licensors own all intellectual property rights (including copyright and database rights) in the Content. You acknowledge that “BizSummits” is our trade mark and that you may not use it without written permission from BizSummits.
You may on a non-exclusive basis, for your own legitimate business or personal use:
- Retrieve and view Content on any compatible device; and
- Where Content is available for download, you may download and store a single copy on a storage device personal to you such as a USB drive (but not on any shared drive, shared server or other storage device connected to a network).
You may not (and may not permit any third party to):
- Except as expressly permitted above, copy, reproduce, broadcast, transmit, modify, abstract, create derivative works of, store, archive, aggregate, publicly display, redistribute, share, forward, license, sub-license, publish, sell or in any way commercially exploit any of the Content;
- Share your username, password or any other website access details (“ID”) with any individual or other third party;
- Make your ID available to multiple users, including on a network or within an organization; or
- Remove any copyright or trade mark notices from the Content;
- Frame, harvest or scrape the Content or do anything similar; or
- Use the Content for any unlawful purpose.
We reserve the right to monitor your use of any Service. BizSummits may cancel your subscription or suspend your access to the Content if you use the Content in breach of the above provisions.
ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BY BIZSUMMITS UNDER THIS SUBSCRIBER AGREEMENT ARE WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO OUR OTHER RIGHTS AT LAW (INCLUDING APPLICABLE COPYRIGHT LEGISLATION).
3. Registration, Payment and Termination
In order to subscribe, you must provide us with accurate, complete registration information about yourself. It is your responsibility to update and maintain changes to your registration information by contacting us at service@BizSummits.org. Each subscription is for a single user only.
If you wish to change your ID, or you believe there has been any breach of security such as the disclosure, theft or unauthorized use of your ID or any payment information, you must notify BizSummits immediately by e-mailing us at service@BizSummits.org.
We may offer more than one level or type of subscription at any time and make different Content and services available to you depending on the level of subscription you acquire. This will be made clear to you at the time you acquire your subscription. BizSummits reserves the right to change the Content and services or any level of subscription at any time.
When you subscribe, you must provide BizSummits with complete and accurate payment information and agree to pay at the rates in effect on the date you subscribe. By submitting card payment details to us, you warrant that you are entitled to purchase a subscription using those card details. If we do not receive timely payment or payment authorization or any authorization is subsequently cancelled or refused, we may immediately terminate your subscription or suspend your access to the Content.
BizSummits will charge you in US dollars. You may also have to pay any applicable taxes.
4. Renewals and Termination
We may offer different payment terms for your subscription and different lengths of subscription which will be made clear to you when you subscribe. Unless you notify us before the end of your annual subscription period that you no longer wish to receive it, your annual subscription will renew for another year. We will charge the subscription using the same card or other payment method that you previously used.
By placing your order you agree that we may start your subscription immediately upon our accepting your order. This means that you are not entitled to a refund if you change your mind after we have provided you with access to your subscription.
Except as set out in the previous section, you do not have any right to cancel your subscription or any part of it until the end of your then current subscription period. Although you may notify us of your intention to cancel at any time, such notice will only take effect at the end of your then current subscription period, and you will not receive a refund (except in the limited circumstances set out in these terms).
You may notify us of your wish to cancel your subscription by contacting our Customer Services team at service@BizSummits.org.
BizSummits reserves the right to suspend or terminate your subscription if you breach these terms and conditions, with or without notice and without further obligation to you. We may also suspend or terminate your subscription if we are prevented from providing services to you by circumstances beyond our control. If we terminate your subscription for any reason and/or permanently cease publishing the Content or cease to provide subscription services then, unless there are exceptional circumstances, we will provide you with a pro rata refund to your credit card. This means that we will refund you with any amounts that you have paid us in advance that relate to any remaining and unexpired period of your subscription.
