2. Use of the Service. By using the Service, the User represents and warrants that the User meets all of the above requirements, and that the User will not use the service in a manner that would violate any law or regulation. Please consider that by making these representations and warranties, the User is making a legally binding promise. Keskeda reserves the right to refuse service, terminate the accounts of any User, and change eligibility requirements at any time.
3. Subscription. When the User creates an account and accepts these TOS, the User sends Keskeda mere invitation to treat, the contract between the User and Keskeda is finalized only after Keskeda's acceptance of the User's contractual proposal. In such case, the period of validity of the contract (the "Validity Period") begins. The Validity Period will remain in effect for as long as the User has an account or until the User or Keskeda terminates the contract in accordance with these TOS, whichever occurs first. If User registers an account on behalf of a company or other entity, User represents and warrants that User has the authority to accept these TOS and to enter into the agreement on User's behalf.
4. Account Termination. The User or Keskeda may terminate the contract at any time and for any reason. User may do so by closing its Keskeda account or Keskeda may do so by giving notice of termination to User. Keskeda may discontinue providing service to the User at any time, with or without cause. Keskeda will not refund the User under any circumstances. If the User's account remains inactive for 24 or more months, Keskeda may terminate it and the User will not be entitled to a refund for any prepaid amounts or reimbursement for unused credits. Once a User's account has expired, the User acknowledges and agrees that Keskeda may permanently delete the User's account and all data associated with it. User names are unique and may only be used once. If the User's account is terminated, the User name may no longer be available for use on any future accounts and cannot be recovered.
5. Account and Password. User is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of its account name and password. User is also responsible for any account to which User has access and for any activity that occurs in that account, whether User has authorized such activity or not. The User will notify Keskeda immediately of any unauthorized access or use of his/her account. Keskeda is not responsible for any loss due to stolen or hacked or lost passwords. Keskeda does not have access to the User's current password and, for security reasons, may only provide the User with instructions on how to reset the password. Keskeda has the right to update any contact information in the User's account for billing purposes. In addition, the User represents and warrants that all information it provides when creating an account and when accessing and/or using the Service is and will remain complete and accurate. Keskeda may contact User, or any of its locations, based on the information provided in User's account.
6. Account Disputes. Keskeda does not know the internal workings of the organization or the nature of the User's personal relationships. The User will not request access or information regarding an account that is not owned by the User and will resolve any disputes regarding the account directly with the other party. Keskeda decides who owns an account based on a number of factors, including the content of that account and the contact, profile, and payment information listed for it. In cases where non-unique information is present or where Keskeda cannot reasonably determine ownership, Keskeda will ask the User to resolve the matter through appropriate channels external to Keskeda. When a dispute is identified, Keskeda may suspend any affected account, including disabling access and submission features, to protect the security and privacy of data stored within the account until the dispute is duly resolved.
7. Payments. The Content is downloadable for a fee; therefore, the User authorizes Keskeda to deduct charges from the debit or credit card indicated in the registration process. The User agrees to replace the details of any card that expires with the details of a valid card. If your card is automatically replaced with a new card by a payment processor, you acknowledge and agree that you are authorized to deduct any charges to your account from your new card. Anyone using a card represents and warrants that he or she is authorized to use that card and that all charges may be billed to that card and will not be rejected. If Keskeda is unable to process your card order for any reason, Keskeda will attempt to contact you by e-mail and reserves the right to suspend your account until payment can be processed.
