Communications Decency Act.
Product Lab reserves all of its rights under relevant European regulations, including without limitation its right to remove anything objectionable to Product Lab in its sole discretion. You may report any alleged improprieties by any User to Product Lab by email at [email protected]. However, enforcement of these Terms of Use is solely at Product Lab's discretion, and failure to enforce in some instances does not constitute a waiver of Product Lab's right to enforce in other instances. In addition, these Terms of Use do not create any private right of action on the part of any User or third party or any reasonable expectation that the Service will not contain any content or conduct that is prohibited by such Terms of Use.
This adaptation maintains the essence and intent of the original clause while aligning it with the applicable European legal framework.
Account Security.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of passwords and account information for the Service, and you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify ProductLab of any unauthorized use of accounts or any other breach of security.
Third-Party Services and Content.
The Service may contain links or otherwise contain or provide access to third-party products, services, websites, advertisers, applications, information, and content (collectively, "Third-Party Services and Content"), which access is provided solely for convenience. You understand and agree that such Third-Party Services and Content are not provided by ProductLab, and ProductLab does not control or endorse and does not make any representations or warranties regarding such Third-Party Services and Content.
User Content.
"User Content" is defined as any information, content, messages, video, photos, and/or materials a User posts on or through the Service, submits to ProductLab and/or submits to any other User on or through the Service or by any other medium or method. ProductLab acts as a passive conduit for User Content, and Users, not ProductLab, are solely responsible for the User Content they post, submit or transmit through the Service. User Content, including without limitation in connection with registration and Users' profiles, is self-reported and you understand and agree that ProductLab does not independently verify that any or all of the User Content is accurate, appropriate, timely or complete. You understand and agree that you make your own decisions and assessments about User Content and about persons to engage or engagements to accept. You represent and warrant that you are the owner or licensee or otherwise have the right to post or submit such User Content, and you grant to ProductLab an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, fully paid, worldwide, sublicensable license to use, copy, perform, display, reproduce, adapt, modify, prepare derivative of, and distribute such User Content and to incorporate such User Content into other works. You agree that you are solely responsible for any User Content you post or submit, and you represent and warrant that any User Content: (A) shall not be inaccurate, untimely, incomplete, fraudulent or misleading, including without limitation in connection with registration, your profile and/or use of the Service; (B) shall not infringe any third party’s rights, including without limitation copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary right or rights of publicity or privacy; (C) shall not violate any law, statute, ordinance, rule or regulation; (D) shall not be defamatory, libelous, threatening, harassing, abusive, or inflammatory; (E) shall not be obscene, indecent, suggestive, violent, offensive or contain pornography or be harmful to minors; (F) shall not contain any viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, spiders, cancel bots, corrupted files, or any other similar software, malware or materials that may damage, interfere with, disrupt, impair, disable or otherwise overburden the operation of any device, computer system or network; and (G) shall not create liability for ProductLab or cause ProductLab to lose (in whole or in part) the services of the ProductLab ISPs or other partners or suppliers. ProductLab may, but is not obligated to, review or delete any User Content that, in ProductLab's sole and exclusive discretion, violates these Terms of Use. Although ProductLab has no obligation to screen, edit or monitor User Content, ProductLab reserves the right, and has the sole and exclusive discretion, to remove, screen or edit User Content or suspend or terminate your account for any reason or for no reason, including if it believes that any User Content violates any of the foregoing rules. You agree to make no further use of the Service during suspension or after termination. Enforcement of the User Content rules set forth in these Terms of Use is solely and exclusively at ProductLab's discretion, and failure to enforce such rules in some instances does not constitute a waiver of ProductLab's right to enforce such rules in other instances. In addition, these rules do not create any private right of action on the part of any third party or any reasonable expectation that the Service will not contain any content that is prohibited by such rules.
Paid ProductLAB or Memberships. Access to the Service requires a paid membership ("Paid Membership"). Upon registration for a Paid Membership, you agree to pay ProductLab the applicable membership fees at the prices then in effect, and you authorize ProductLab to charge your chosen payment method in connection therewith. ProductLab reserves the right to correct any payment errors even if it has already requested and/or received payment. ProductLab may use third-party payment processing services to process credit card payments and information in connection with the payment of membership fees and other amounts payable in connection with the Service. Further, ProductLab may offer limited-time, free trial memberships or other promotions from time to time. In some cases, which will be disclosed at the time of sign-up, these promotions may automatically convert to Paid Memberships if you do not cancel within a designated time frame. In such instances, if you continue your membership after the end of the free trial or promotional period, you will be charged the price then in effect. To avoid such charges, you must cancel your membership prior to the end of the free trial or promotional period through the Account Settings in your User Profile in the Site or by emailing [email protected].
Automatic Renewal and Cancellation.
Paid Memberships will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the Paid Membership term originally selected (as indicated at the time of sign-up).While a ProductLab may be one-time payment or Pay-as-you-go service. IF YOU SIGN UP FOR A PAID MEMBERSHIP, YOU AGREE THAT THE TERM OF SUCH PAID MEMBERSHIP WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY RENEWED AT THE END OF EACH TERM UNLESS AND UNTIL YOU CANCEL PRIOR TO THE END OF THE CURRENT TERM THROUGH THE ACCOUNT SETTINGS IN YOUR USER PROFILE IN THE SITE OR BY EMAILING [email protected]. At or near the time of each renewal, you authorize ProductLab to charge your selected payment method the then-current, applicable fee in accordance with the Paid Membership you selected. Upon cancellation, you will have access to the Paid Membership benefits until the end of the then-current Paid Membership term, and the Paid Membership will not be renewed after that term expires. You will not be eligible for a refund of any portion of the Paid Membership fees paid for the then-current Paid Membership term, except as expressly provided in these Terms of Use. ProductLab is not responsible for and will not reimburse any fees incurred by you from your bank or other financial institution, including without limitation overdraft charges, insufficient funds charges, interest charges, or finance charges, which may have occurred as a result of charges billed by ProductLab.
