  1. PURCHASES, SUBSCRIPTION, FEES, AND CANCELLATION

  1. App Fees and Purchases. All purchases of product or service offerings by Adoptee Identity made on or through the App (including, without limitation, initial and ongoing access to the App, whether a one-time fee or on an ongoing subscription fee basis, as applicable; collectively, “Adoptee Identity Offerings”) are subject to these Terms of Use and any additional terms and conditions disclosed to you on or through the App at the time of purchase. All prices, discounts, and promotions for Adoptee Identity Offerings posted on the App are subject to change without notice. The price charged for Adoptee Identity Offerings will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your order confirmation; price increases will only apply to orders placed after such changes. Posted prices for Adoptee Identity Offerings do not include taxes or charges for shipping and handling. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time and to cancel any orders arising from such occurrences. By choosing to purchase an Adoptee Identity Offering on or through the App, you agree to pay, including through our designated Third-Party Services payment processor, all amounts due to Adoptee Identity in United States Dollars (USD) at the time of check-out or as otherwise indicated, and where applicable, you authorize us, including through our designated Third-Party Services payment processor, to charge your chosen payment provider. You are responsible for paying all sales, use, value-added, and other taxes, duties, and assessments now or hereafter claimed or imposed by any governmental authority that are associated with your purchases made in connection with the App, including through any Third-Party Service. 

  2. Subscriptions. Certain features of the App may be available on a subscription basis (each, a “Subscription”). Subscriptions will be billed in advance on a recurring and annual or monthly basis (as selected by you) (“Billing Cycle”). Unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase, Billing Cycles are set on an annual basis. Any Subscription fee change will become effective at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle. We will provide you with a reasonable prior notice of any change in Subscription fees to give you an opportunity to cancel your Subscription before such change becomes effective. Your continued use of the App after the Subscription fee change comes into effect constitutes your agreement to pay the modified Subscription fee amount. At the end of each Billing Cycle, until you or we cancel your Subscription, your Subscription will automatically renew under the exact same conditions, and you will be automatically charged the applicable Subscription fees for the type of Subscription you have selected. If we are unable to successfully charge your credit card or payment account for fees due, or invoices are not paid in full when due, we reserve the right to restrict or suspend access to your Account, or terminate your Account. If you terminate your Account for any reason or if we terminate your Account due to your breach, such termination will be effective immediately, and you will be immediately billed for any unbilled fees incurred prior to the effective date of termination. You will not receive a refund for any amounts you already paid for that Billing Cycle. Further, you agree to reimburse us for any collection costs and interest for any overdue amounts. 

  3. Cancellation. Subscriptions purchased through the Apple App Store are billed by Apple, not by Adoptee Identity, and may only be canceled through your Apple account. To cancel, open Settings on your Mobile Device → tap your name → Subscriptions → Unfolding → Cancel Subscription. To avoid being charged for the next Billing Cycle, you must cancel at least twenty-four (24) hours before the end of your current Billing Cycle. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle, and you will retain access to Subscription features until that time. PLEASE NOTE: DELETING THE APP FROM YOUR MOBILE DEVICE OR DELETING YOUR ACCOUNT DOES NOT CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION. You must cancel through your Apple account settings as described above to stop future charges. Refunds for purchases made through the Apple App Store are governed by Apple's policies, and refund requests must be submitted directly to Apple (for example, at reportaproblem.apple.com); Adoptee Identity is unable to issue refunds for App Store purchases. You may delete your Account at any time in the App by going to My Profile → Delete Account → Delete My Account; Account deletion is subject to our Privacy Policy and, again, does not cancel any active Subscription.

  4. Free Trials. We may, at our sole discretion, offer you access to certain features covered under a Subscription during a free trial period, as disclosed to you on or through the App (“Free Trial”). You may be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for the Free Trial. If you do enter your billing information when signing up for the Free Trial, you will not be charged by us until the Free Trial has expired. Please make a note of when your Free Trial will expire as you may not receive additional notice prior to the automatic charge if you do not cancel before the Free Trial period expires. Free Trials are limited to one per customer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Adoptee Identity may seek emergency injunctive relief or other relief in any court of competent jurisdiction for your breach or threatened breach of Section 2(b) or Section 5 of these Terms of Use. This agreement to arbitrate shall be referred to as the “Arbitration Agreement.”
