The terms listed below (the “Terms“) are intended to make you aware of your legal rights and responsibilities with respect to your access to and use of the Site and any related applications whether existing now or in the future (collectively, the “Properties“).
By accessing or using the Properties, you agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms constitute the complete agreement between you and Xtensio, Inc.

You agree that you will only use the Properties for your own use. You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age to create an account and use the Properties. We do not knowingly allow children under the age of 13 to use the Properties. If you are between the ages of 13 and 16, you may use the Properties only through an account created by your parent or guardian, and only with their permission. If you reside in a jurisdiction where your parent or guardian must provide consent to us prior to your use of the Properties, beyond what is included here or in our Privacy Policy, your use of the Properties is prohibited. Use of the Properties is void where prohibited.
Certain portions of the Properties may be secured or otherwise protected from access except for authorized users with valid login and password information. Individuals without authorization attempting to access these portions of the Properties may be subject to prosecution.
Account Creation
Anyone can try the editor without signing up for an account. In order to use some of the more advanced features offered by the Properties, you must create an account which requires purchasing a premium subscription plan. Please see the features and prices detailed on this page for further information.
Accounts created using an email address with the same domain name, such as from a school, company, institution, or organization will be limited to a maximum of 20 “Free” accounts, and we may, at our sole discretion, close any accounts in excess thereof.
Use of any personal information you provide to us during the account creation process is governed by our Privacy Policy. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account and you are responsible for all changes and updates submitted through your account and all activities that occur in connection with your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account by sending an email to [email protected]. We reserve the right to suspend access to or close your account at any time for any or no reason
When you create an account, you agree to only provide true, accurate and correct information. You may not impersonate someone else, create or use an account for anyone other than yourself, provide an email address other than your own, create multiple accounts except as otherwise authorized by us, or provide or use false information.
We may (a) cancel or suspend your access to your account, or the Properties generally; (b) cancel, suspend, or remove your access to certain features associated with your account; and/or (c) change the pricing related to your account; all at our sole and exclusive discretion, with or without prior notice, for any or no reason, and with no liability to you or any third party.

Recurring Billing
When signing up for a premium tier offered by Xtensio (as detailed here: https://xtensio.com/pricing), you agree to the features and pricing of the selected tier. The features and pricing of the premium tiers are subject to change at any time and at Xtensio’s sole and exclusive discretion. Notice of the changes will be made available to you here (https://xtensio.com/pricing) and will be effective upon notification. Upon activation of the selected premium tier, you authorize us to charge you either monthly or annually, per your request when you signed up, at the then current rate.
Billing Cycle
Upon activation of the premium tier, your first subscription cycle will be billed immediately. Your subscription will auto-renew and you will be billed on the same date each month or year depending on your billing cycle. We reserve the right to change the timing of our billing, as indicated below, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled. In the event your subscription began on a day not contained in a given month, we may bill your Payment Method on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we deem appropriate. For example, if you started your Xtensio subscription on January 31st, your next payment date is likely to be February 28th, and your Payment Method would be billed on that date.
Referrals
We may, from time to time, and at our sole and exclusive discretion, offer you a referral program whereby you may earn a free month of a premium tier subscription for each new premium tier account you refer to us. If at the time of the referral you already have an active subscription, your free month will be applied at the end of your current billing period. If at the time of the referral you do not have an active subscription, we will automatically apply the free month of membership to your account starting on the date that the referred account is activated.
Payment Methods
You may edit your Payment Method information by logging into your Xtensio account. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, your premium tier account will be automatically cancelled and you will be downgraded to a free account (see, “Termination” below). In such a case, your access to and ability to edit some or all of Your Content will be restricted. You may also be asked to archive or delete some of Your Content in order to conform to the limits of a free account.
Termination
You may terminate your monthly or annual subscription at any time prior to the end of your current billing period. You agree that Xtensio, in its sole and exclusive discretion and for any or no reason, may terminate any account (or any part thereof) you may have with Xtensio or use of the Properties and remove and discard all or any part of your account or any content uploaded by you, at any time. Xtensio may also in its sole and exclusive discretion and at any time discontinue providing access to the Properties, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Properties or any account you may have or portion thereof may be effected without prior notice, and you agree that Xtensio will not be liable to you or any third party for any such termination. Termination of your account does not relieve you of any payment obligations.
No Refunds
Payments are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods.
Taxes
Where applicable, you are responsible for paying all taxes related to your use of the Properties.
