TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE

 

Last revised on 1/3/08

 

Welcome to our website. This site is maintained as a service to our customers. By using this site, you agree to comply with and be bound by the following terms and conditions of use. Please review these terms and conditions carefully. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, you should not use this site.

 

1. Agreement

This Agreement (the "Agreement") specifies the Terms and Conditions for access to and use of StateAndFederalBids.com (the "Site"). This Agreement may be modified at any time by StateAndFederalBids.com upon posting of the modified agreement. You can view the most recent version of these terms at any time at http://www.stateandfederalbids.com/terms.html.

 

2. Choice of Subscriptions

You may choose from a variety of subscription plans. Unless otherwise noted, all plans automatically renew each period on the anniversary unless you cancel it before the renewal period. For example, if you choose a month to month plan and activate the account on January 5th, you will be billed the same amount again on February 5th unless you cancel your account before then.

All plans, unless otherwise noted, function on a calendar basis from the last billing date. Since calendar months do not have a uniform number of days, this means that the recurring date of the plan may change over the life of the subscription. For example, If the plan is monthly and you signup on January 31, your recurring date will not be February 31, but February 28 since there are only 28 days in February. The next billing will be 1 month from the previous billing, so it will occur on March 28.

 

3. Credit Card Charges

If you pay by credit card, upon registration you do grant to us permission to charge all fees incurred using your password to the credit card you provide to us. If payment cannot be charged to your credit card or such payment is returned to us for any reason, including chargebacks, we may either suspend or terminate your account and all services under this Agreement and you will personally owe us any unpaid balance.
