This is a legally binding agreement between you (either an individual or a single entity), referred to herein as “YOU”, and Biztree Inc, referred to herein as “Biztree”. This web-based software entitled Business-in-a-Box and all documents and materials included in it are referred to herein as the “SOFTWARE” or the “DOCUMENTS”. Installing, opening, signing up, logging in, or using all or any portion of this web-based software indicates your acceptance of all the terms and conditions of this End-User License Agreement referred to herein as “EULA” and that this agreement is equivalent to a written agreement signed by you. By selecting the box “I AGREE” or performing a similar electronic function, such as Signing Up to a Free Trial, or Purchasing this product, you are providing your acceptance of the terms of this agreement. This agreement is enforceable against you and any legal entity that obtained the web-based software and on whose behalf it is used. If you do not agree to the terms of this agreement, please do not use this software.
IT IS ILLEGAL AND STRICTLY PROHIBITED TO DISTRIBUTE, PUBLISH, OFFER FOR SALE, LICENSE OR SUBLICENSE, GIVE OR DISCLOSE TO ANY OTHER PARTY, THIS WEB-BASED SOFTWARE OR THE DOCUMENTS IN HARD COPY, DIGITAL FORM OR ANY OTHER MEDIUM WHETHER EXISTING OR NOT YET EXISTING, EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PERMITTED BELOW.
The use of this web-based software is governed by the terms and conditions set forth herein. Please read them carefully. This EULA is applicable to all of the Documents included in the Software and to the Software in its whole part. You are deemed to have read, understood and accepted the terms of this EULA when you install or use the Software.
Business-in-a-Box is sold as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and requires Clients to have a valid membership subscription. We accept payments with Credit Cards and Visa and Mastercard Debit Cards. Your subscription will renew automatically at the end of the subscription term unless you opt-out from automatic renewal or cancel your membership. You can update your payment method, manage your subscription or cancel at any time by visiting the Billing page under your user account.
By purchasing this software, you agreed to enroll in our automatic renewal service. This keeps your products up and running, automatically charging then-current renewal fees to your payment method on file, with no further action on your part.
Once a user submits a request for cancellation, no additional charges will be made. However, no refunds are provided upon cancellation. If you cancel before an upcoming renewal date, you will have access to your Account through the end of the then-current year.
Annual subscriptions purchased through the Biztree Store will renew automatically at the end of the term. Your credit card is charged at the end of each subscription period and a renewal confirmation notice is sent to the account administrator’s email address. Notification of upcoming renewal is sent to the account administrator’s email address 21 days before renewal. If you wish to turn off the automated renewal, you can do so any time from your online account under My Account/Billing.
Biztree offers a free trial version for Business-in-a-Box. We do not request credit card information when signing up to the free trial. The free trial allows anyone to see a preview of each template of the software. The free trial, however, does not allow you to Download, Export, Print or to Cut/Copy/Paste/Save the templates. You need to purchase and activate the software in order to be able to fully download and edit the templates.
If your credit card on file is closed or expired, or if for any reason, a charge is rejected, you will be requested to update your Billing Information and supply a new payment to keep your account active. If a charge is rejected, your access to the Business-in-a-Box software will be suspended until you update your account information and the payment is successful.
