By registering, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access the content of the Company and except for the limited license mentioned above, no right, title or interest will be transferred to the User. The User agrees not to use the service for public presentations or performances. If you are under 18 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Service. You may be required to register a personal profile on the site in order to access specific content or services.
  2. Access to content As a user, when you sign to access the Forecaster.biz service, whether it's free or paid, you obtain a license from the Company to view the materials contained on Forecaster.biz. The content is licensed, not sold, to you as a user. This license does not give you the right to resell the content in any way (including sharing account information with a buyer or illegally uploading and sharing the content on torrent sites). In legal terms, Forecaster.biz grants you (as a User) a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and view the content for which you have paid all required fees, solely for your personal, non-commercial, and educational purposes through the Services, in accordance with these Terms and any condition or restriction associated with the particular content or feature of our Services. All other uses are expressly prohibited. You may not reproduce, redistribute, transmit, assign, sell, broadcast, rent, share, lend, modify, adapt, modify, create derivative works, sublicense, or otherwise transfer or use any content nor service unless we explicitly give you permission to do so in a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of ELP SA. We generally provide a limited-time access license (“subscription plan enrolments”) to our users when they purchase the service Forecaster.biz. However, we reserve the right to revoke any license to access and use any content at any time if we decide or are required to disable access to the content for legal or business policy reasons, for example, if the service or other content you have signed up for is subject to a copyright infringement complaint, or if we determine that it violates these terms and conditions.

This trial period is designed to provide full access to all features and functionalities available on Forecaster.biz, allowing users to thoroughly explore and evaluate our services. During this trial, users can utilize all tools and resources just as a subscribed member would, without any restrictions. It is important to note that once this 24-hour trial period expires, continued access to the features and services of Forecaster.biz will require the user to choose a subscription plan. We offer various subscription options to cater to different needs, including monthly, quarterly, and annual plans. Users are encouraged to select the plan that best suits their requirements to maintain uninterrupted access to our services. Details and pricing of each subscription plan are available on the website.

Your account As part of the necessary process to create an account on the Site (an "Account") and gain access to certain Services, you will be asked to provide your full name, email address, password, and phone number (the "Registration Credentials") or register through one of the third-party accounts ("Third-Party Accounts"). You must ensure that your Registration Credentials and data are accurate, truthful, and up to date. We reserve the right to block the creation of your Account based on our inability to confirm the authenticity of your Registration Credentials. In addition to registering directly on the Site by providing your Registration Credentials, we give you the option to register and access your Account through one of your social media accounts such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google. The list of social accounts, described above, through which the Forecaster.biz service can be accessed, is provided by way of example only, is not exhaustive and does not imply that the possibility of accessing the Forecaster.biz site is actually available for all the social accounts mentioned. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for more information on accessing your Account through a Third-Party Account. Unless you access your Account through a Third-Party Account, please note that the email address and password provided as part of the Registration Credentials will be used to access your Account. You will be solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your email address and password and must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your Account. You are solely responsible for all activities and use of your Account, including but not limited to the use of the Account by third parties authorized by you to use your email address and password. We allow you to maintain only one Account to access the Services. By registering, accessing, or using our Services, you agree to enter into a legally binding contract with ELP SA. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not register, access, or otherwise use our Services. If it is found that you have created an account that violates these rules, we will close your account. You may be required to verify your identity before being allowed to publish content on Forecaster.biz. You can terminate your account at any time by accessing your account area and using the account deletion button. Your personal data will be deleted according to the Privacy Policy. You may not assign or transfer these Terms (or the rights and licenses granted under them).

You agree that your account is not transferable and that all rights to your account and other rights under these Terms terminate upon your death.

By subscribing to a subscription plan and providing billing information during checkout, you grant us and our payment service providers the right to process payment for applicable fees via the selected payment method. At the end of each subscription period, we will automatically renew your subscription for the same duration. If we update your payment method using information provided by our payment service providers, you authorize us to continue charging applicable fees to your updated payment method.

Any price changes or subscription modifications will take effect after notice to the user, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
  14. Refunds If you believe you have been charged an amount in error, you must contact us within 14 days of such charge. No refund will be given for any charge older than 14 days. We reserve the right to refuse a refund request if we reasonably believe (i) that you are attempting to unfairly exploit this refund policy, for example by making repeated refund requests in relation to the same feature; (ii) if you are in breach of the Terms; or (iii) if we reasonably suspect that you are using our Services fraudulently. ELP SA's liability, its officers, directors, or employees, to you or third parties in any circumstance is limited to the amount of money you transferred to ELP SA in relation to the transaction giving rise to such liability. If the content you purchased is not what you expected or you are not satisfied, you may request, within 14 days of purchasing the content, that Forecaster.biz apply a refund to your account. We reserve the right to apply your refund as a refund credit or a refund to your original payment method, at our discretion, depending on the capabilities of our payment service providers, and other factors. No refund is due to you if you request it after the 14-day warranty period has passed. However, if the content you previously purchased is disabled for legal or policy reasons, you are entitled to a refund beyond this 14-day limit. Forecaster.biz also reserves the right to refund users beyond the 14-day limit in the event of suspected or confirmed account fraud. To request a refund, contact us at info@forecaster.biz. At our discretion, if we believe that you are abusing our refund policy, such as by significantly exploiting the service for which you are requesting a refund or if we have already refunded you for the content previously, we reserve the right to deny your refund, limit you from future refunds, ban your account, and/or limit any future use of the Services.
