8. Accessing the Service and Account Security.
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify, suspend, restrict, or permanently discontinue any aspect of the Service—including free or paid features, content, or functionality—at any time, with or without notice, and without any liability to you or any third party. We will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of the Service is unavailable at any time or for any period. From time to time, we may restrict user access, including registered user access, to some parts of the Service or the entire Service.
You are responsible for both:
- Making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the Service.
- Ensuring that all persons who access the Service through your internet connection are aware of these Terms and comply with them.
To access the Service or some of the resources it offers, you may be asked to provide certain registration details or other information. You may create an account using a valid email address or an authorized third-party login provider such as Google, Apple, or Facebook. It is a condition of your use of the Service that all the information you provide is correct, current, and complete. You agree that all information you provide to register with this Service or otherwise, including, but not limited to, through the use of any interactive features on the Service, is governed by our Privacy Policy, and you consent to all actions we take with respect to your information consistent with our Privacy Policy.
If you choose, or are provided with, a username, password, or any other piece of information as part of our security procedures, you must treat such information as confidential, and you must not disclose it to any other person or entity. You also acknowledge that your account is personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to this Service or portions of it using your username, password, or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your username or password or any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information.
We have the right to disable any username, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, at any time in our sole discretion for any or no reason, including if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms, including providing false information.
9. Subscriptions and Payment.
Certain features, including Scene Alerts, require a paid subscription. Payments are processed by our third-party payment processor, Stripe, Inc. Your use of paid features is also subject to Stripe’s applicable terms and conditions.
By purchasing a subscription, you authorize recurring charges to your designated payment method for the applicable subscription fee at the then-current price, according to the billing cycle you select (for example, monthly or annually). Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current price unless you cancel it before the renewal date. The recurring charge amount, billing frequency, and any applicable taxes will be disclosed to you at the time of purchase and in your account or confirmation communications.
You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. Cancellation stops future billing and takes effect at the end of the then-current billing period. You will retain access to the paid features until the end of that period. Cancellation does not entitle you to a refund or credit for any portion of the current billing period already paid, except as required by applicable law.
We may change subscription pricing or other material terms prospectively. If we do, we will provide advance notice (for example, by email or in-app/account notification) before the change takes effect. The new price or terms will apply only to subsequent billing periods. You may cancel before the effective date of any price increase or material change if you do not agree.
