By using this Web Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, "using" or "use" shall mean any accessing, browsing, downloading, posting of messages, creation, maintenance, or manipulation of information stored on MediaDefined's servers.
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Overview.
This Agreement states the terms and conditions by which MediaDefined will deliver and Customer will receive services provided by MediaDefined, ("Service"). The term "You" refers to the Customer, individual or legal entity, as applicable, that registers for or uses the Service. This Agreement is intended to cover any and all Services used by Customer and provided by MediaDefined.
2. Charges and Payment of Fees.
2.1 Payment.
You will pay all fees or charges to Your account in accordance with the fees, charges, and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. You must provide MediaDefined with valid credit card or purchase order information as a condition to signing up for the Service. You must also report and pay any applicable taxes to the appropriate governmental agency. Purchase orders may be subject to credit approval.
2.2 Collections and Renewal.
MediaDefined charges and collects in advance for use of the Service. MediaDefined will automatically renew and bill Your credit card or issue an invoice to You as follows: (a) every month for monthly licenses, (b) every quarter for quarterly licenses, (c) upon the commencement of the initial term and then at each subsequent anniversary for annual licenses, or (d) quarterly or annually for annual subscriptions. The renewal charge will be equal to the then-current number of total licenses times the then-current license fee in effect at the time of renewal. Licenses added or subtracted during a billing period will be billed on a pro rata basis. License charges will be based on the number of licenses contracted for, whether or not such licenses are actively used. Charges for other services will be billed as agreed at the time such services are reMediaDefineded. MediaDefined reserves the right to change the fees, applicable charges and usage policies and to introduce new charges at any time, upon at least 30 days prior notice to You, which notice may be provided by e-mail.
2.3 Invoices.
For credit card payers, invoices will be generated at the start of a license or billing period and Your credit card will be charged simultaneously. If paying by other means, invoices will be generated at the start of a license or billing period and approximately one month in advance of the start of any renewal or subsequent billing period and shall be due within 30 days. Your account will be considered delinquent if payment in full is not received by the license or billing period start date.
2.4 Billing and Contact Information.
You agree to provide MediaDefined with complete and accurate billing and contact information if the terms of Your MediaDefined account require You to pay for the Service. This information includes Your legal company name, street address, e-mail address, and name and telephone number of an authorized billing contact. You agree to update this information within 30 days of any change to it. If the contact information You have provided is false or fraudulent, MediaDefined reserves the right to terminate Your access to the Service in addition to any other legal remedies.
If You believe that You have been incorrectly billed by MediaDefined, You must contact us in writing within 60 days of the invoice date of the invoice containing the amount in MediaDefinedion to be eligible to receive an adjustment or credit.

You will continue to be charged for Your licenses during any period of suspension. If You or MediaDefined initiate termination of this Agreement, You will be obligated to pay the balance due on Your account computed in accordance with the Charges and Payment of Fees section above.
