NUCLEAR FOCUS TERMS AND CONDITIONS (effective from 28 January 2021)
PAID SUBSCRIPTION TERMS
Month-to-month
Service begins as soon as your initial payment is processed. You’ll be charged the rate stated at the time of purchase, plus applicable taxes (such as value added tax when the stated rate doesn’t include VAT), every month, until you cancel. Because there’s no annual contract, your rate is subject to change, but we’ll always notify you beforehand. You may cancel your monthly subscription to Nuclear Focus at any point prior to your next billing period, no questions asked. “Cancel anytime” means you can turn off the auto-renewal for your subscription whenever you’d like, and if you do so at least 48 hours prior to your renewal date, you will not be charged for subsequent billing periods after that. If you do not cancel at least 48 hours prior to your renewal date, your subscription will be automatically renewed, and we will charge your account using the payment method on file for you. Please note we do not issue refunds for cancellations that are requested after you have been charged. Cancellations can be made any time by contacting info@nuclearfocus.com
Cooling off period: You may cancel within 14 days of the subscription start date and a full refund or credit will be made. Cancellations after 14 days from the subscription start date will be effective from the end of the subscription period then in progress. The full balance owing will be payable.
Failure to Make Payment
Should You fail to make payment within 14 days of the subscription start, or the renewal date, Nuclear Focus reserve the right to suspend the service. This does not remove the entitlement for Nuclear Focus to pursue for the full balance due. The period of suspension of service will not be added to the subscription term or refunded.
SERVICE LICENCE
This Licence constitutes a legal contract between the organisation (Licensee), as identified on the Order Form and the Licensor (Nuclear Focus) that governs the Licensee’s use of Nuclear Focus’ Subscription Service available at www.nuclearfocus.com.
Upon commencement of the Subscription, Nuclear Focus as Licensor grants the Licensee the right to have one named User (identified by an email address that specifically identifies the User) per account of the Service unless the Licensee’s Subscription explicitly allows multiple Users.
By registering for the Service, You confirm that You have authority to enter into this Agreement on behalf of the Licensee. Should Nuclear Focus suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, it has the right to suspend or terminate a Licensed User’s usage of the Service. Accounts cannot be shared or used by more than one individual.
You are responsible for all usage or activity on the Service. Distribution of Your password to others for access to the Service is expressly prohibited and shall constitute a breach of these Terms.
The Licensee may not use, copy, modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Service, except as permitted hereunder or to the extent such acts may not be prohibited by law in the country of use or create derivative works based on the Service. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Nuclear Focus.
Nuclear Focus reserves the right to amend the Terms and Conditions at any time. Such changes will be effective following posting of the amended version on the site. It is the Licensee’s responsibility to review the Terms and Conditions regularly to ensure the Licensee is aware of the latest Terms and Conditions. Continued use of the Service will constitute acceptance of the modified Terms and Conditions. If the Licensee does not agree to any changes to these Terms and Conditions, then the Licensee’s only remedy is to cease using the Service.
If the Licensee does not agree to or cannot comply with these terms, the Licensee must stop using the Service and, if applicable, cancel the Subscription.
THE SERVICE
Nuclear Focus is a tender alert service available each working day (excluding bank holidays), that provides access to contract information based upon your online profile. As a Nuclear Focus User you will also receive access to the Nuclear Focus online portal where You may tailor Your email alert profile to Your specific business interests. If You complete your email alert profile, You will receive email alerts when tender opportunities matching your interests, have been added to the site.
If Nuclear Focus receives from You a written request to stop sending email alerts as part of the Service, Nuclear Focus will do so. Should You elect to submit such a request, You understand that Nuclear Focus’ subsequent agreement to stop sending alerts shall in no way be considered a breach of contract between Nuclear Focus and Your organisation, and as such the contract shall remain fully in force and legally binding.
