Supply of GetLightmeter.com services

Lightmeter Ltd (“The Provider”) provides the Lightmeter email delivery service (“Service”). The Service is provided subject to your compliance with the terms and conditions (“Terms of Service”) set forth below. Please read the following carefully.

The Provider reserves the right to update and modify the Terms of Service at any time without notice. New features that may be added to the Service shall be subject to the Terms of Service. Should you continue to use the Service after any such modifications have been made, this shall constitute your agreement to such modifications. You may always view the most recent copy of the Terms of Service here: https://GetLightmeter.com/terms-delivery.

The GetLightmeter.com service is available only to persons who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. You must complete the registration process and agree to our Terms and Conditions in order to use GetLightmeter.com. All contact information you submit must be true, complete, and kept up to date.

As part of the registration process, you will identify an e-mail address and password for your GetLightmeter.com account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and passwords and for all users of your GetLightmeter.com account. You agree to keep your account credentials confidential, including the unique identifiers relating to your GetLightmeter.com account.

The Provider reserves the right to refuse service or to terminate accounts for any user, and to change eligibility requirements at any time, at its sole discretion.

Any violation of any of the Terms will result in the termination of your account.

Limitations in the GetLightmeter.com services

The Provider uses a third party to host the application servers and to provide communication services. The Provider will use all reasonable endeavours to ensure the third party undertakes to provide its services at or above industry standards. Accordingly, The Provider does not warrant that GetLightmeter.com will be uninterrupted, error, bug or virus free or that the delivery of emails will be without delay.

It may be necessary to temporarily suspend GetLightmeter.com and / or the Service from time to time to carry out maintenance of equipment; such suspensions will be limited and will take place as much as possible outside core working hours. However, GetLightmeter.com may also be suspended (in whole or part) where The Provider or the third party host is obliged to comply with an order, instruction or request of government, a court or other competent administrative authority or an emergency service organisation.
Charges

You shall pay the charges for GetLightmeter.com as set out on the GetLightmeter.com website or in accordance with the payment terms agreed with The Provider. You will be subject to monthly subscription fees in accordance with the fee schedule.

All charges quoted for the provision of GetLightmeter.com are inclusive of any Value Added Tax. If you are VAT registered in Europe, you will need to take care of your own VAT payments.

The Provider does not provide refunds for unused monthly subscriptions (even if we had to shut down your account for violating these terms).

Payment of the charges

Payments can be submitted only by providing credit card information and by agreeing to a monthly debit on your account when registering for GetLightmeter.com. Credit cards will be debited on the day of each calendar month that you made your first payment. If you exceed the amount of services included in your subscription package, for example by consuming all service credits, then those services will be suspended for that month.

If, for whatever reason, The Provider is unable to process your credit card order, The Provider will attempt to contact you by email and will pause usage of the account until the payment can be processed.

You agree to pay for all billable services used by your account, even if those services are unused by your choice, or if your emails are disrupted during this time (GetLightmeter.com has no control over your subscribers’ email servers, ISP availability, personal spam filter settings, etc.).

Fees are payable in US dollars.

Changes in the Service and Fees

The Provider reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service at any time for any reason with or without notice.

The present rates for GetLightmeter.com services are stated on the GetLightmeter.com website.

The Provider reserves the right to change the fees upon 30 days notice. Fee change notices may be emailed to the Service, displayed within Lighmeter accout interfaces, or on the GetLightmeter.com website.

Continued use of GetLightmeter.com following the effective date of any change in prices shall be considered acceptance of such change.

Cancellation and Termination

You alone are responsible for the proper cancellation of your account. You may cancel your account at any time. To request cancellation of your monthly payments, you must use the cancellation link in the payment confirmation email which you received (all customers), or alternatively the billing management link in the offer proposal document you may have also received (select customers). Direct email or phone requests to cancel your account will not be deemed cancellation – you must use the ‘Contact Us’ form instead. You can find the contact form here: http://GetLightmeter.com. This will not erase the application or your account at GetLightmeter.com.

The Provider will then close down your account and cancel the recurring payments agreement.

Whilst you can cancel at any time, you will remain liable for all charges accrued up to that time, including full monthly charges for the month which you discontinued service. You will not be charged again.

If your first payment has already been processed, The Provider will only refund the full amount if (a) the request is received within 24 hours after sign up. If you have paid for several months in advance, you can request a refund by contacting us using the contact form. We will then calculate your refund based on the full month price, without any discounts, for the months the service was used, including the month of your request. Additionally a $60 administration fee will be added. This may mean there is nothing left to refund.
