Last Updated: October 19, 2023
Please read this Terms of Service and End User License Agreement (the “Agreement”) carefully. Your use of the App or Website (each as defined below) constitutes your consent to this Agreement.
This Agreement is between you and Live.Give.Save, Inc. d/b/a Spave (“Spave,” “Company,” or “we” or “us”) concerning your use of (including any access to) the Spave® mobile application (together with any materials and services available therein, and successor app(s) thereto, the “App”) and Company’s website, located at https://www.spave.io (the “Website”). This Agreement hereby incorporates by this reference any additional terms and conditions posted by Company through the App or on our Website, or otherwise made available to you by Company.
Please read this Agreement carefully before you start to use the Website or App. By using the Website or App, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by this Agreement and our Privacy Policy, found at https://www.spave.io/privacy, incorporated herein by reference. If you do not want to agree to this Agreement or the Privacy Policy, you must not access or use the Website or App.
THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT, AS FURTHER SET FORTH IN SECTION 26 BELOW, REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR ANY OTHER COURT PROCEEDINGS, AND INCLUDES A WAIVER OF ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR OTHER COURT PROCEEDINGS OR CLASS ACTIONS OF ANY KIND.
Violation of any one or more of the foregoing rules may result in Spave withdrawing your ability to access or use the App.
9. Products. The App and the Website may suggest, promote or make available listings, descriptions and images of goods or services (collectively, “Products”), as well as references and links to Products. Such Products may be made available for any purpose, including general information purposes. The availability through the App or the Website of any listing, description or image of a Product does not imply our endorsement of such Product or affiliation with the provider of such Product. We make no representations as to the completeness, accuracy, reliability, validity or timeliness of such listings, descriptions or images (including any features, specifications and prices contained therein). Such information and the availability of any Product (including the validity of any associated coupon or discount) is subject to change at any time without notice. It is your responsibility to ascertain and obey all applicable local, state, federal and foreign laws (including minimum age requirements) regarding the possession, use and sale of any Product.
WE HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO USERS OF THE APP OR THE WEBSITE FOR ANY SUCH THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY ACCEPTED HEREIN.
10, Subscriptions. You have the option to purchase a paid subscription to gain access to extra features in the App. You will only have access to such extra features while your paid subscription is active. You may have access to a free trial period of the paid subscription features, which automatically converts to a paid [30-day] subscription term after a certain period of time. In such instances, you can disable the automatic conversion by cancelling your subscription, as described below, prior to the date of conversion. Subscriptions are available for lengths of either 30 days, 90 days, or 1 year. Full payment must be made at the time of sign-up. All sales are final and refunds are not available. You can purchase the subscription through the Google Play or Apple App Store on your device. Please note your purchase will be subject to Apple’s or Google’s payment policy, as applicable depending on which app store you make your purchase through, which also may not provide for refunds. Unless otherwise stated, all subscriptions are automatically renewing for the same term as your initial subscription length. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the renewal subscription fee to the payment method you provided at sign-up. To cancel your subscription please do so through your subscription settings in the Google Play or Apple App Store. Spave does not offer partial cancellations, upon cancellation your subscription will remain active through the end of your paid term. You are responsible for all applicable fees and charges incurred, including applicable taxes, in connection with all subscriptions purchased by you. We reserve the right to change our subscription plans or adjust pricing for our service or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these in this Agreement any price changes or material changes to your subscription plan will take effect following notice to you.
