Welcome and thank you for your interest in Stream Ocean AG, (“Stream Ocean”) Stream Foundation, our websites at www.streamocean.io and www.streamfoundation.ch, along with our Dashboard, related websites, applications, data services, embedded software, and other services provided by us (collectively and individually, the “Service”). These Terms of Service and End User License Agreement are a legally binding contract between you and Stream Ocean regarding your use of the Service.
Please read the following terms carefully.
By clicking “I accept,” or by downloading, installing, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you agree that you have read and understood, and, as a condition to your use of the Service, agree to be bound by the following Terms and Conditions, including Stream Ocean’s Privacy Policy, (constituting “The Terms.”) If you are not eligible, or do not agree to the Terms, then you do not have permission to use the Service. Your use of the Service, and Stream Ocean’s provision of the service to you constitutes an agreement by Stream Ocean and by you to be bound by these Terms.
1.1 By using, visiting, accessing and/or registering with Stream Ocean’s Service, you have read, understood and agreed to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to be bound by these Terms (as amended from time to time), then please do not use the Service.
1.2 We reserve the right to change, modify, add or delete parts of these Terms at any time and without further notice. Such amendments shall be effective upon posting the revised Terms published on our website at www.streamocean.io. The amended Terms will be presented to the user when they log in the next time.
1.3 These Terms are binding on Members and on non-Members who access and use the Service (“Users”).
We hereby grant you permission to use the Service in accordance with these Terms, provided that (a) you use the Service solely for your personal, (b) you will not alter, modify, edit or otherwise change any part of the Service other than as may be reasonably necessary to use the Service for its intended purpose and (c) that you will comply with these Terms.
3.1 Registration. To access most features of the Service, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your name, email address, billing information or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up-to-date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account.
3.2 Security. You are solely responsible and liable for any activity occurring on your account, and you must keep your account password strictly confidential. You must inform us immediately of any breach of security or unauthorised use of your account by emailing us at operations@streamocean.io. We will investigate any security breaches and we have the right to suspend or terminate the account immediately. We will not be liable for any losses caused by the unauthorised use of your account, but you may be liable for our or other users’ losses caused by such unauthorised use.
4.1 Price. Before you pay any fees related to the Service, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. Stream Ocean reserves the right to determine pricing for the Service in consultation with the Customer. Stream Ocean may change the fees for any feature of the Service, including additional fees or charges, if Stream Ocean gives you advance notice of changes before they apply. Stream Ocean, at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with different features and different pricing to any of Stream Ocean customers. These promotional offers, unless made to you, will not apply to your offer or these Terms.
4.2 Authorisation. You authorise Stream Ocean or its third-party payment provider to charge all sums for the orders that you make and any level of Service you select as described in these Terms or published by Stream Ocean, to the payment method specified in the contract. If you pay any fees with a credit card, Stream Ocean or its third-party payment provider may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase.
4.3 Subscription Service. The Service may include automatically recurring payments for periodic charges (“Subscription Service”) based on the Services that you select in your account. If you activate a Subscription Service, you authorise Stream Ocean to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums. The “Subscription Billing Date” is the date when you purchase your first subscription to the Service. The subscription will continue unless and until you change or cancel your subscription or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic Subscription Fee to your account. We will bill the periodic Subscription Fee to the payment method you provide to us following registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). You may change or cancel the Subscription Service by informing us.
4.4 Delinquent Accounts. Stream Ocean may suspend or terminate access to the paid portions of the Service for any account for which any amount is due but unpaid. In addition to the amount due for the Service, a delinquent account will be charged with fees or charges that are incidental to any chargeback or collection of any unpaid amount, including collection fees.
