Terms of Service

These Terms of Service were last changed on July 08th, 2015.

By using our proprietary cloud based service at hubb.io (the “Service”), you (either as an individual or as n entiry) agree to be bound by these terms of service (“Agreement”) with Hubb Ventures (“Hubb”). If you do not agree to the terms and condition set forth here, you may wish to not use this Service.

The Hubb Privacy Policy (available here) is incorporated herein by reference and governs your use of the Service. This Agreement governs your use of the Service however accessed, including via an Internet browser, smartphone, tablet or other mobile device.

If you are signing up for the Service on behalf of an entity, you represent that you are duly authorized to represent the entity and accept the terms of this Agreement on behalf of such entity, and any references to “you” in this Agreement refer to such entity and all of its employees, consultants and agents.

Term and Termination

This Agreement will remain in effect until all subscriptions granted in accordance with this Agreement have expired or this Agreement is terminated by you or Hubb (the “Term”). If you elect to use the Service for a free trial period, if any, and do not purchase a subscription before the end of such period, this Agreement will expire at the end of the free trial period.

User subscriptions (post beta) purchased by you commence on the start date specified upon payment and continue for the subscription term selected at the time of payment. You are solely responsible for the proper cancellation of your account. You may cancel your account at any time by emailing billing (@) hubb dot io.

Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time in the event of a material breach that is not cured within 30 days of written notice by the non-breaching party (except in the case of your nonpayment (including in the event your credit card cannot be charged), in which event Hubb may suspend or terminate your access to the Service upon any such nonpayment). Hubb will refund to you any prepaid fees covering any period of the term remaining after the date of termination for all subscriptions. However, no refund will be granted for the then-current month.

Unless your account is terminated due to your nonpayment, you will continue to have the ability to access and download the information provided, inputted or uploaded to the Service by you or on your behalf (“Data”) for 30 days after the effective date of expiration or termination. After such 30-day period or if your account is terminated due to your nonpayment, Hubb shall have no obligation to maintain any Data and shall thereafter, unless legally prohibited, delete all of your Data in Hubb’s systems or otherwise in its possession or under its control.

Hubb may downgrade, terminate or suspend your access to the Service without prior notice and without liability if such action is based on (a) Hubb’s good faith belief that you have violated any provision of this Agreement (including a failure to make any payment when due), or (b) you do not log in to or otherwise use the Service for a period of 180 days of more if you have a paid account and for a period of 60 days or more if you have a free account.

Modification of this Agreement

The Service may be made available in free or paid versions at different levels. Not all features and functionality of the Service may be available in each version or level. Hubb reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify, add, or remove portions and/or functionality of the Service, or to modify, add, or remove portions of this Agreement at any time by making such modified Agreement available to you. The revised Agreement will be effective immediately upon being made available to you, except that in the event any such modification materially alters your rights hereunder, Hubb will attempt to notify you directly by sending a message to the email address that you provided to us. Your use of the Service after modifications to this Agreement become effective constitutes your binding acceptance of such changes. In such case of a material modification, you will be required to affirmatively agree to such modified Agreement. You can also review the most current version of this Agreement at any time at: https://www.hubb.io/terms-of-service. If you are dissatisfied with the terms of the Agreement or any modifications thereof, then you agree that your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue any use of the Service.

Usage Rights; Restrictions; Support

During the Term, Hubb grants you a limited, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive right to access and use the hosted software products and related documentation included in the Service and all modifications and/or enhancements to any of the foregoing (“Software”) via a web browser or other device owned or controlled by you for your internal business use. Nothing in this Agreement obligates Hubb to deliver or make available any copies of computer programs or code from the Software to you, whether in object code or source code form. You agree to use the Service only in compliance with all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules and regulations (“Applicable Law”). You shall not, and shall not agree to, and shall not authorize, encourage or permit any third party to:

  • use the Service to upload, transmit or otherwise distribute any content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, abusive, fraudulent, obscene, threatening, abusive, hateful, contains viruses, or is otherwise objectionable as reasonably determined by Hubb;

If you integrate with Hubb using our API, you must use efficient programming, which will not cause too many requests to be made in too short a period, as determined by Hubb. Hubb reserves the right to throttle your API connections, or suspend or terminate your Hubb account.

Payment Terms

Your subscription to the Service renews automatically for the same term selected upon initial payment (e.g., month-to-month, annual, etc.). You may change your subscription term at any time by contacting us using one of the methods set forth in the Contact Information section below. Your credit card will be charged once a month for monthly subscriptions and once a year (upon the anniversary of your subscription date) for annual subscriptions. Hubb will email you a receipt when your card has been charged. If your card cannot be charged, your access to Services may be suspended and you will need to update your card information in order to resume use. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade accounts, or for months unused with an open account.

Yearly subscription pricing requires a one-year minimum commitment. If you cancel your subscription, or your subscription is suspended for nonpayment, before the end of the one-year commitment period, you will no longer qualify for yearly subscription pricing and you will be charged the difference between the monthly and yearly commitment pricing for the number of months your subscription was active.

All fees are exclusive of all taxes or duties imposed by governing authorities. You alone are responsible for payment of all such taxes or duties.

Hubb may at any time, upon notice of at least 90 days or a longer period if required by Applicable Law, change the price of your subscription or any part thereof, or institute new charges or fees. Price changes and institution of new charges implemented during your one-year subscription period will come into effect for any subsequent one-year subscription periods and to all new subscribers after the effective date of the change. If you do not agree to any such price changes, then you must cancel your subscription and stop using the Service prior to the commencement of the renewal subscription period for which the price change applies.
