Crowdstack Pay Terms For Purchasers

Rules for purchasers using our Premium Membership management service.
The following are the rules, or Terms of Service ("TOS", "Agreement"), that govern your use of the Crowdstack Pay service, which is managed by Crowdstack, Inc. and its related entities, including Social Strata, Inc. ("Crowdstack", "us", "we"). By using Crowdstack Pay through the purchase of (or complimentary use of) a premium membership ("PM") from a participating site ("Participating Site"), you ("you") expressly agree to be bound by the TOS and all applicable laws and regulations governing your use of Crowdstack Pay. In addition to the fees charged by the Participating Site, any applicable state/local taxes will also be collected at the time of purchase, based on tax laws in place at the time. The TOS can be reviewed online at https://www.crowdstack.com/policies/pay-terms-for-purchasers.php. We reserve the right to change the TOS at any time, effective upon posting to that web location. If you violate the this TOS, we may cancel your premium membership and/or take appropriate legal action against you.

We respect your privacy and the information that you provide to us is subject to our Privacy Policy.
Payment Methods
Crowdstack Pay accepts several methods of payment to accommodate your needs, including Visa-, MasterCard-, American Express- and Discover-branded credit/debit cards. (If you have been given a complimentary premium membership, no payment will be required.)
Control of Memberships and Transactions
The Participating Site controls the rights conveyed with the PM and sets the fee that is charged to you. Crowdstack Pay handles all transaction processing on behalf of the Participating Site, but has no affiliation with the Participating Site except as a service provider. Crowdstack Pay is ONLY responsible for ensuring that your payments are collected in a secure manner and that your PM is activated and deactivated on the Participating Site, as appropriate. The Participating Site has no access to credit card information you provide for payment.

You understand that Crowdstack Pay has no control over the management of the Participating Site from which you purchased a premium membership. Further, you agree to hold us harmless in the event that the Participating Site fails to honor its agreement to provide you with the premium features your purchased from them.
Renewals/Recurring Billing
Your membership will be renewed automatically when its term expires, assuming the premium membership price plan is still available and the price has not increased. If the plan price ever increases, you'll be notified by email, and you'll have to manually renew your membership at the end of the current term. You will receive an email notification each time your subscription is renewed. To manage your premium membership, sign in on the Participating Site and navigate to: Manage > Premium Membership.
Cancellation
You may cancel your account online at the Participating Site. Cancellation will be effective at the end of the term for which you have already paid. The Participating Site and/or Crowdstack may also cancel your account at any time. To cancel your premium membership, sign in on the Participating Site and navigate to this page on that site: /member-cp/premium-memberships.
Refunds
When you initiate a cancellation, all payments are nonrefundable by Crowdstack Pay, without exception, even if you cancel prior to the end of the current membership period.

If your premium membership is terminated by the Participating Site, you will automatically receive a pro rata refund for the period between the termination date and your prepaid ending date. If we terminate your premium membership, a pro rata refund will be issued at our sole discretion. You may contact us about refund issues via our support site. The maximum refund you may receive will be based on the pro rata portion of your paid term for which you did not receive premium membership benefits.
Customer Support
If you have a question about the nature of your premium membership, you should contact the Participating Site. However, if you have a specific question about or an issue with the payment processing for your membership, please contact us at [email protected].
