These terms and conditions of service (collectively, with Vinctus’s Privacy Policy, located at shuttlecontrol.com/privacy-policy, the “Terms of Service” or “Agreement”) govern your use of the Website and the services, features, content or applications operated by Vinctus (together with the Website, the “Services”), and provided to the Subscriber (the “user”, “you” or “your”).

Acceptance of the Terms

By using our Services, you accept all of the Terms of Service. These Terms of Service form a legally binding Agreement between you and Vinctus. Please read these Terms of Service carefully before using the Services. These Terms of Service apply to all users of the Services.

Registration

Account and Information

To use the Services, you must register for an account on the Services (an “Account”). You must provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself. You must maintain and update any information you provide to us. If you provide information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Vinctus has the right to suspend or terminate your Account and refuse all current or future use of the Services. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your Account, regardless of whether the activities are undertaken by you, your employees or a third party (including your contractors or agents), and for keeping your Account password secure. You should never publish, distribute or post login information for your Account.

Disclaimer of Content

You represent that all Subscriber Content provided by you is accurate, complete, up-to-date, and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. You acknowledge that all Content, including Subscriber Content, accessed by you using the Services is at your own risk and you will be solely responsible for any damage or loss to you or any other party resulting therefrom. We do not guarantee that any Content you access on or through the Services is or will continue to be accurate.

Rights of Content

You shall abide by and maintain all copyright notices, information, and restrictions contained in any Content accessed through the Services. Subject to these Terms of Service, we grant each user of the Services a worldwide, non-exclusive, revocable, non-sublicensable and non-transferable license to use (i.e., to download and display locally) Content solely for purposes of using the Services. Use, reproduction, modification, distribution or storage of any Content for other than purposes of using the Services is expressly prohibited unless you have been specifically told that you may do so by Vinctus in a separate agreement. You shall not sell, license, rent, or otherwise use or exploit any Content for commercial use or in any way that violates any third-party right.

Remedial Action

Subscribers shall notify Vinctus if and when they learn of any security breaches regarding the Services and shall aid in any investigation or legal action that is taken by authorities and/or Vinctus to cure the security breach.

Payments and Billing

Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for paid Services are deemed part of this Agreement.

Method of Payment

All payments to Vinctus must be made using means of payment that we may approve from time to time. Vinctus currently requires payments to be made by major credit cards. Other forms of payment may be arranged by contacting Vinctus at info@shuttlecontrol.com. Vinctus reserves the right to refuse certain methods of payment.

Payment Plan

If you select a paid Services plan, you will pay for the Services on either a monthly or yearly basis starting on the date that you sign up electronically for paid Services (“Subscription Period”). All invoices are denominated, and the Subscriber must pay in Canadian or US Dollars. Subscribers are typically billed monthly or yearly, with payment due no later than thirty (30) days past the invoice date. Current pricing levels are as set forth at shuttlecontrol.com, and Vinctus reserves the right to modify pricing at any time, provided however that Vinctus will notify the Account administrator of a paid level Account by email thirty (30) days before any price increase affecting that Account. If you upgrade to a higher-paid level or tier, Vinctus will credit any remaining balance from your previous subscription payment to your new level or tier.

Renewal

When you sign up for a Subscription Period, there is a one-time charge. At the end of each Subscription Period, the Services will automatically renew for an additional Subscription Period of the same duration as the previous Subscription Period, as agreed by you. By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such Services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges before cancellation.

WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES FOR RECURRING SUBSCRIPTION PERIODS WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT.

Free Trial

Some of the services may offer a free trial period, which will have a limited availability, duration, and set of features, to be determined at Vinctus’s sole discretion (“Free Trial”).

Cancellation

You may choose to cancel your Account or discontinue your paid services at any time. At cancellation, your Account will be deactivated, and you will no longer be able to access or use the Services. We are not responsible for any loss of information if you choose to cancel your paid services or your Account.

Late Payments

Late payments may bear interest at the rate of one-and-one-half percent (1.5%) per month (or the highest rate permitted by law) from the payment due date until paid in full. You will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Vinctus in collecting such due amounts.

Suspension

If a Subscriber is past due on their balance, Vinctus may send up to three (3) email notifications within a thirty (30) day period before suspending the Subscriber’s Account. Vinctus reserves the right to delete the Subscriber’s suspended Account after the final termination notice.

Billing Information

You must provide current, complete and accurate information for your billing Account. You must promptly update all information to keep your billing Account current, complete and accurate. If you fail to provide such information, you agree that we may keep charging you for any use of paid services under your billing Account unless you have terminated your paid services.

Taxes

You are responsible for any taxes, duties, and customs fees associated with the sale of the Services (other than Vinctus’s income tax) (collectively, “Taxes”), and you will pay Vinctus for the Services without any reduction for Taxes. If Vinctus is obligated to collect or pay Taxes, the Taxes will be invoiced to you.

Termination

Termination Conditions

Vinctus reserves the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate your access to all or any part of the Services at any time, with or without notice, effective immediately. Vinctus may or may not provide prior notice of the intent to terminate Services to you. If you wish to terminate your Account, you may do so by following the instructions on the Website or through the Services. All provisions of these Terms of Service shall survive termination, including, without limitation, licenses of Subscriber Content, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability.

Termination Consequences

Unless otherwise outlined in this Agreement, all fees owed to Vinctus before such termination shall be immediately due and payable, including any liabilities that may have been incurred before termination such as Vinctus’s costs for collection (including attorneys' fees) of any such charges or other liabilities. Any such termination may result in the forfeiture and destruction of information associated with your Account. Upon termination, any rights granted to Subscriber by this Agreement will immediately be terminated, and Subscriber shall promptly discontinue all use of the Services.
