These terms of service (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you, either an individual or a single legal entity (“You” or “you”), and Thomas Hoefter, which operates the CMS Commander online services. These Terms govern your use of any CMS Commander online services (“Services”), the cmscommander.com website (“Site”), the client software distributed with this Agreement and any other software provided by CMS Commander, including any updates and any accompanying written documentation (“Software”). Collectively, the Software, the Site and the Services may be referred to as the “Products.” By clicking the “I AGREE” or similar button, or using any Products, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, then do not indicate acceptance and do not use the Products. If you agree to these Terms on behalf of a legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that legal entity to these Terms.

Your Account

You must register with CMS Commander to use the Services, and you agree to keep your registration information accurate, complete and up-to-date as long as you continue to use the Services. CMS Commander offers a free account with limited functionality (“Free Account”) and several paid accounts offering feature enhancements (“Paid Accounts”).

If you sign-up for a Paid Account, you agree to pay the fixed subscription and variable usage-based fees, if any, for the account type you have selected and agree to any applicable restrictions and quotas, including the number of websites you are allowed to integrate with our Products. If you use a credit card for payment, you authorize CMS Commander to automatically renew your subscription and charge the then-current renewal fees to the credit card associated with your account unless you notify CMS Commander in advance that you do not want your subscription renewed. You may cancel your subscription prior to the next billing date to avoid future charges. Service will continue until the end of the current billing period, but no service fees will be refunded.

Refunds

CMS Commander offers refunds on a case-by-case basis only. Refunds will not be issued for Products already used. If you are interested in a refund, contact CMS Commander immediately to avoid additional fees. Refunds are prorated based upon the number of unused days of service that Products were used for that monthly period. If your Paid Account is in violation of these Terms, refunds will not be issued.

Security
