Terms and conditions

Through use of this service, and/or by checking “I accept the terms and conditions” the customer accepts all terms and conditions in this agreement, and recognizes that they are binding. Through this agreement the customer is allowed access to a subscription-based service developed, marketed and provided by SkillCode Handelsbolag, hereafter referred to as “the provider”.

2. Subscription

Upon successful registration the customer is granted full access to the service free of charge for 30 days, after which payment of the specified monthly fee is required by credit/debit card through PayPal or by invoice in order to extend right of access. Trial accounts may be deleted due to inactivity or if the provider suspects that the account is being misused or used for non-commercial purposes. The trial period may be shortened if the provider suspects that the customer has created multiple trial accounts in succession. If the customer chooses to cancel their subscription either in writing, by cancelling their PayPal-subscription or through withheld payment, all user data is granted to the provider for deletion.

3. Fees and delivery

All mentioned fees are excluding VAT or other applicable additional taxes. Payment of the specified monthly fee allows usage of the service in only one (1) reception. The customer must notify the provider if the account will be used in multiple receptions so that the billing amount can be adjusted accordingly. The provider reserves the right to adjust fees with three (3) months' notice. The service is considered delivered upon first login. Messages are considered delivered when they have reached the provider’s SMS and email service subcontractors. SMS messages which have reached the service subcontractor but not the end user will be deducted from the specified monthly quota as they have incurred a load on the provider’s and subcontractor’s network and therefore generated a cost. If the specified monthly SMS quota is exceeded, the exceeding amount will be charged through a supplementary quarterly invoice at a cost of 0.06 EUR each.

4. Agreement period and cancellation

The agreement period starts when the customer accepts the terms and conditions on creation of an account and ends in connection with the last payed and non-refunded month in the payment period. If the customer pays by credit/debit card, they may terminate their agreement by cancelling the subscription via PayPal, otherwise they must terminate their agreement in writing. After termination, the service will remain accessible until the current agreement period has ended.

5. Payment and payment period

Payments are made by credit/debit card or invoice. On payment with credit/debit card, charges are made on a monthly basis. The payment period is extended one month at a time in connection with every successful monthly payment. The subscription fee is charged to the specified account or credit/debit card on the same day each month starting from the day of registration. An exception is made if the customer registered on the 29th, 30th or 31st day of the month, in which case the payment date will be adjusted to the 1st of the next month in the case that the current month does not contain a 29th, 30th or 31st day. If termination is made during an ongoing payment period the latest completed payment is granted to the provider in full.

If the customer chooses to pay by invoice, payments are made on a calendar quarterly basis provided no other agreement has been made. The payment period is extended according to agreed payment frequency with every successful payment. If termination is made during an ongoing payment period, the cost of all remaining full months in the payment period will be refunded. If termination is made during the last month in a payment period, the last payment is granted to the provider in full.

The provider reserves the right to immediately terminate the agreement and deny access to the service if:

  • An overdue payment is not made within 7 days of due date.
  • The service is used in an unauthorized manner or by an unauthorized person.
  • The provider suspects that the service is being misused.

If any party is subject to bankruptcy, enters liquidation or in any other way is deemed insolvent, the agreement can be terminated during a valid agreement period, in which case the last made payment is granted to the provider in full.

6. The provider’s obligations
