TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Terms and Conditions agreement is entered into by and between you and MemberVault, LLC (hereafter, “MemberVault”, “Company”, “We”, “Our”, “Us”).
1. AGREEMENT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
These Terms and Conditions constitute a legally binding agreement between you and MemberVault concerning your access to and use of MemberVault.co and the MemberVault platform, including any digital or downloadable resources, workshops, trainings, as well as any other application, media channel, or tool related to MemberVault and its business purpose, or enter any online private or community forums operated by MemberVault (for any purpose) whether on a website hosted by MemberVault or a third-party website, such as facebook.com whether not known or unknown (the “Platform”).
You understand, acknowledge, and accept that by accessing this Platform, you are bound by all of these Terms and Conditions presented to you in this very agreement. By using our Platform or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms and Conditions when and if this option is made expressly available to you, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms and Conditions.
If you do not agree with these Terms and Conditions, you may not use the Platform.
The Platform is intended and only suitable for individuals aged eighteen (18) and above. Some of the content in the Platform may not be appropriate for children. MemberVault hereby disclaims all liability for use by individuals under the age of eighteen (18).
2. GENERAL TERMS
MemberVault is a SAAS platform. This means that the platform’s product is the actual product itself. In order for you, as the customer or website visitor, to be able to access and use the features of our SAAS platform, you will be required to create or register an “Account” through the MemberVault.co website. Upon registering or creating an account, you will have an active account that you can start using to build your own information platform such as online courses, one-on-one coaching and consulting sessions, group coaching and consulting sessions, challenges, memberships, and more. The data and information that you will create within your MemberVault account belongs to you. However, you have no rights to other parts of the platform such as the platform code, or the fundamental program base. You are not permitted to use any files that you know are corrupt that would potentially pose a risk to the entire MemberVault platform.
You acknowledge, agree, and accept that as a SAAS platform, any technical processing, transmission, and transfer of the service, including things like your content, can be transferred unencrypted or shared with over various networks and, as well as the data or content may be changed in order to conform to the technical requirements of the platform itself to avoid any errors.
3. MEMBERVAULT ACCOUNT OPTIONS
As of March 31, 2022, MemberVault permanently retired the following plans: Starter, Base, Pro, Pro Plus, and Lifetime plans (hereafter, collectively referred to as “legacy plans”). Moving forward, MemberVault will only offer one plan, the “Unlimited” plan for ninety-nine U.S. dollars a month ($99/month) or nine hundred ninety U.S. dollars a year ($990/year). Except as otherwise provided in these Terms and Conditions, the Unlimited plan will not have any limits as to products, number of users, pages, or storage.
Moving forward, any person or business wishing to create a MemberVault account, will have to go to the MemberVault’s website, create their account, sign up with their email and subdomain name. The account that gets created will be a set time period free trial account. Once the free trial expires, if the account is not upgraded to a paid plan, the trial account will flip to our read-only account type. Once the free trial ends and the account is flipped to read-only, it will be honored for a period of ninety (90) days; after which, the account will be removed from the platform if the account has not been upgraded to paid status. A person is welcome to create a new free trial account should they wish to revisit using MemberVault after their original free trial account has flipped to read-only and been deleted.
If the account holder wishes to continue past the set time period of the trial account, they will need to upgrade to the MemberVault Unlimited plan at $99/month or $990/year. If they do not upgrade to our Unlimited plan before the end of the free trial period, their account will be flipped to read-only for a period of 90 days before being deleted.
4. MEMBERVAULT FREE ACCOUNT HOLDERS
Any account holder with MemberVault LLC who is currently on the free plan will continue to maintain the use of their free plan until June 30, 2022. This timeline provides a ninety days (90 days) grace period from the moment the legacy plans were retired by MemberVault on March 31, 2022. On July 1, 2022, all free accounts will be transitioned to “admin read-only” access for a period of one-year. Please note, that the “admin read-only” access will not permit you to add or make changes to your existing account/site. This means you cannot make any changes, add, or delete anything from your existing account. Moreover, the users and visitors of this MemberVault site will no longer be able to access the site. When they visit the site/account URL, there will be a blank page or a page with a default message on it.
The advantage that “admin read-only” access will provide the account holder is the ability to view and export their content and data. Once the one-year period for the “admin read-only” access concludes, the account will be permanently deleted from the MemberVault platform. This means the account holder will no longer be able to access their account for any purpose – viewing, exporting content, or making changes.
5. INACTIVE/ABANDONED ACCOUNTS
MemberVault reserves the right to remove any free account (or the content within the account) if the account remains dormant for three-hundred and sixty-five (365) days or more. An account is deemed inactive/abandoned if there has been no activity from the account owner (admin activity) within a period of three-hundred and sixty-five (365) days or more. Notification of impending account or content removal will not be provided. You are responsible for keeping your account active and for keeping a backup copy of your content. Accounts or content removed from the platform due to inactivity cannot be recovered.
6. PAID ACCOUNT HOLDERS BEFORE APRIL 1, 2022
If a MemberVault account holder is already on a paid plan (as opposed to using the free plan), then as of April 1, 2022, their account will be locked in for the price they were paying before April 1, 2022, so long as they maintain an active subscription. Furthermore, if any account holder on a paid plan is paying for the account with payment plans (this mostly concerns customers who have a “Lifetime” license), then that account holder will be required to continue making payments in a timely manner in order to preserve their account and lock in the price. If a lifetime license owner defaults on their payment plan, they will be notified by email that they have 30 days to bring it back to active. If they do not, their license will switch to the unlimited annual plan, prorated by the amount they have paid up to that point for their lifetime license.
Please note, should a paid account holder need to upgrade their account to a higher limit plan, they can do so by upgrading to the “Unlimited” plan at a price point of $99/month or $990/year. A 30% discount will be offered to any account holder who holds an active subscription for a legacy plan and wishes to upgrade to the “Unlimited” plan. Once they have upgraded, their legacy plan subscription will be canceled, and their legacy pricing will be relinquished.
An active subscription for a legacy plan is exclusive to the original purchaser and cannot be transferred to or inherited by another individual. In the event that an account holder with an active subscription for a legacy plan sells their business or wishes to transfer their account to another individual, the account holder is not permitted to include their legacy plan and subscription within their agreement with the other party or to make any guarantees on behalf of MemberVault. Should the individual taking over the account wish to continue using the account on a paid plan, MemberVault will extend a discount of 30% on the Unlimited Plan as a courtesy.
It is the responsibility of the original account holder to contact MemberVault directly to communicate and approve the transfer of their account’s ownership to another individual and to request the cancellation of their existing subscription. The new account holder may request a custom coupon code to receive their courtesy discount (30%) for the Unlimited Plan once the transfer of account ownership has been completed and confirmed by MemberVault.
Lifetime account holders, if selling their business, may transfer their lifetime account to another individual, if that lifetime account is paid in full. Communication must come from the email associated with the lifetime account, and the new account owner must be cc’d on correspondence with MemberVault LLC via hello@membervault.co.
7. CANCELLATIONS
Any MemberVault account holder is free to cancel their account at any time. However, should someone choose to cancel their account after April 1, 2022, their subscription will be canceled at the end of that billing cycle. Moreover, their account will transition to “admin read-only” access for a period of 90 days. After the conclusion of that 90 day period, the account will be permanently deleted from the MemberVault platform. Should the person who canceled their account wish to come back to MemberVault at any time after cancellation, they will be required to pay either $99/month or $990/year. However, if the account holder wishes to come back to MemberVault after the 90 day admin read-only access has expired, then they will need to create a new MemberVault account because at that point, the previous account would have been permanently deleted.
If you would like to cancel, you can either login to your MemberVault and go to “account plans” > “cancel” or you may email us at hello@membervault.co. and include the following:
Please cancel my plan.
I understand that by canceling, my account will transition to “admin read-only” access for a period of 90 days at the end of my billing cycle. After that 90 day period, my account will be permanently deleted and I will lose access to all content; however, I remain bound to the ongoing provisions in the MemberVault Terms and Conditions which I agreed.
Signed,
[ENTER YOUR NAME]
You may visit https://membervault.co/lookup/ for assistance logging in to your account.
Unless otherwise provided in these Terms and Conditions, cancellation does not entitle you to any refund and any remaining default or late payments will be due immediately.
8. TERMINATION
MemberVault may terminate your use of the Platform at its sole discretion, at any time, without refund or notice, if you breach any part of these Terms and Conditions.
9. ACCOUNT PAYMENT AND TERMS
As of April 1, 2022, MemberVault, LLC will offer only 2 payment plans for its Unlimited plan. Account-holders can elect to pay either $99/month or $990/year.
If a customer is on the monthly plan, then they will be billed every thirty (30) days until they cancel. If a customer is on the annual plan, then they will be billed once every year until they cancel. The customer can cancel their account at any time. If they cancel midway through their payment cycle, their subscription is honored until the end of the cycle and then canceled to avoid rebilling.
In the event you do cancel, any default or late payments will be due immediately. MemberVault reserves the right to charge a late fee on all balances more than thirty (30) days overdue. You agree to reimburse MemberVault for all collection and/or legal fees and expenses necessitated by lateness or default in payment.
10. REFUNDS
A 30-day guarantee is offered on the purchase of the Unlimited monthly plan. Any person who purchases the monthly plan who determines within 30 days that they wish to cancel, will receive a full refund for their first month’s payment. The monthly subscription will be canceled and the account will immediately transition to ‘admin read-only’ access for the period of 90 days.
In all other cases, MemberVault has a no refund policy. Unless otherwise provided by law, you acknowledge that MemberVault does not offer refunds for any portion of your payment and no refunds will be provided to you at any time. By using the Platform, you understand and agree that except as provided above, all sales are final, and no refunds will be provided.
Since we have a clear and explicit Refund Policy in these Terms and Conditions that you have agreed to prior to completing your purchase, we do not tolerate or accept any type of chargeback threat or actual chargeback from your credit card company or payment processor. If a chargeback is placed on a purchase or we receive a chargeback threat during or after your purchase, we reserve the right to report the incident to all three credit reporting agencies or to any other entity for inclusion in any chargeback database or for listing as a delinquent account, which could have a negative impact on your credit report score. The information reported will include your name, email address, order date, order amount, and billing address. Chargeback abusers wishing to be removed from the database shall make the payment for the amount of the chargeback.
11. CREDIT CARD TRANSACTIONS AND CHARGES
The payments for MemberVault accounts are handled via Samcart if the member has a paid subscription. Also, all the legacy annual plans (that are no longer available) are also handled via Samcart. The payment gateways that MemberVault uses on Samcart are PayPal and Stripe.
The accounts that have Lifetime Licenses (regardless of whether they paid in full or with payment plans) are not created or paid for inside Samcart. For the LIFETIME accounts, MemberVault uses its own checkout cart option and utilizes Stripe and PayPal for the payment gateways.
If paying by debit card or credit card, you give us permission to automatically charge your credit or debit card for all fees and charges due and payable to MemberVault, without any additional authorization, for which you will receive an electronic receipt. You also agree that the MemberVault is authorized to share any payment information and instructions required to complete the payment transactions with its third-party payment service providers (e.g., credit card transaction processing, merchant settlement, and related services).
In the event that a payment made by the member to MemberVault fails (for whatever reason), then Samcart, Stripe, and PayPal re-attempt the payment and three (3) other additional times. Therefore, all in all, both payment gateways try to capture the payment a total of four (4) times. Each time the payment fails, Samcart, Stripe, and PayPal send notification emails to the member, letting them know that their payment did not go through.
If all four (4) attempts to collect payment by the processors fail, the member’s MemberVault subscription is automatically canceled within the payment processor itself and marked as delinquent. Once the account is marked as delinquent, the account will be flipped to an admin read-only access account for a period of 90 days from the cancellation time, after which, if not re-activated to a paid plan, it will be deleted.
An admin read-only access account will allow the account holder to view and export materials or products from their account, but they will not be able to add or change anything in their account. If the account holder wishes to re-activate their account after their account is marked delinquent, then they will have to upgrade to the new pricing model at $99/month or $990/year and the account owner will need to contact MemberVault LLC at hello@membervault.co to re-activate their account.
If the account holder was on a legacy plan, as stated in the payment notification emails from Samcart, once their account is delinquent, they relinquish rights to their legacy plan and will need to re-activate their account under our Unlimited plan at $99/month or $990/year.
If the payment plans on the LIFETIME accounts fail or go unpaid, then MemberVault will work with the member to resolve the payment issue and if necessary, should their original payment plan be canceled due to failed attempts, have them create a new payment plan and provide them with a coupon code to discount the new plan by the dollar ($) amount already collected.
